After Ma Wenzhou returned to Dali Temple, he immediately began the search without stopping. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info he ordered the temple to take over the case Xu Ruohua and Si Zhi Hu Yue, and any information must be reported to him immediately. Xu Ruohua and Hu Yue heard about the case early, so they naturally did not dare to delay, and led people to Zuidielou and Fuda Rice Store to conduct on-site investigations, but they failed to make any progress.

After a few days, Hu Yue first sensed that something was wrong. He usually likes to read some miscellaneous books, and is slightly proficient in some side doors, and now he smelled a slight smell of saltpeter in the air, and sent a few skilled subordinates to grope for a secret passage, and found a large amount of saltpeter powder hoarded in it.

Xu Ruohua frowned, picked up a small point and examined it carefully, and said after confirming that it was saltpeter: "This yellow is developed, what do you want to do with so much saltpeter?" ”

Hu Yue thought of a possibility, couldn't help but have a serious face, and said, "Don't you want to make gunpowder?" ”

"Gunpowder?" Xu Ruohua was taken aback by Hu Yue's conjecture. You must know that making gunpowder privately is a serious crime, and it will be related to the nine clans.

"Lord Xu, it's best not to spread this matter until it is clarified, so as not to cause unnecessary panic." Hu Yue said, glancing at the subordinates who followed up.

Several subordinates have followed Hu Yue for some years, so they naturally know that what Hu Yue wants to tell them is the four words that come out of their mouths.

Xu Ruohua sighed, and also thought that it was more appropriate to press it down first.

Later, they secretly visited other Qinglou in the imperial city, but they were not jointly oppressed by Qingniang and Li Zhifu as Huang Dafa said.

The Drunken Butterfly Building and the house of Governor Li also turned inside and out, but they couldn't find a single word that could be corroborated. No one said that the girls in the Drunken Butterfly Building were forced, and they all said that Qingniang treated them well on weekdays.

After Xu Ruohua sorted out these, he said to Hu Yue: "It seems that Huang Dafa deliberately slandered Governor Li's mansion without choosing his words. ”

Hu Yue disagreed: "Lord Xu, that Huang Dafa is just a wealthy businessman with a low status, how could he think of slandering Governor Li?" What's more, he was poisoned by a few girls who were poisoned by cassava flour at first, and the crime was not to death, if he was not forced to be helpless, how could he make such a decision? ”

Xu Ruohua raised his eyebrows, looked at Hu Yue and said: "Your Majesty originally wanted to send him to Governor Li for punishment, but he had the courage to slander Governor Li and deliberately delay time!" Don't say any more, we'll just hand it over to Master Ma for trial. ”

"Lord Xu......" Hu Yue still had something to say, but Xu Ruohua waved his hand and stopped him at the throat.

Xu Ruohua hated iron and said with a grudge: "It's best if this matter ends like this, do you understand?" ”

Hu Yueshang said unwillingly: "If Governor Li really abuses his power, how can we tolerate it? Isn't Dali Temple always known for its fairness and strictness? What is the difference between this and the protection of officials! ”

Hu Yue spoke very sharply, Xu Ruohua lowered his face and scolded: "This matter is extraordinary, how can it be compared with ordinary cases!" If you talk nonsense like this again, don't blame me for being merciless! ”

"Isn't it extraordinary to involve the right prime minister?! Your Majesty is our master, and we are doing this for the tiger! ”

Xu Ruohua's face was completely blackened, but he had finally known Hu Yue for many years, and he knew that Hu Yue was such a character, so he still took a deep breath and said patiently: "Now that the situation in the DPRK is unclear, it is not half good for us to offend the right prime minister." The things that Governor Li did were just greedy for beauty, and they weren't excessive, so why should you be serious to the end? ”

Hu Yue also wanted to say that seeing that Xu Ruohua's face was really bad, he could only endure it and said, "My subordinates know." ”

If only it were as simple as coveting beauty......
