In fact, after knowing that gunpowder was missing, Sun Dong had sent an alarm to Ye Xun as soon as possible, but this was not Sun Dong's purpose, only by finding the person behind the smuggling of gunpowder could he give an explanation in front of Ye Xun, otherwise he would be derelict in his duties.

Jinyi Wei Qianhu's surname is Liu, when Sun Dong showed him the Wei Zi No. 1 token, Liu Qianhu became extremely respectful and affectionate, probably to his Lao Tzu, he did not have this attitude.

Although Ye Xun is in charge of the West Factory, everyone knows that Ye Xun has another major spy organization, the Weizi Battalion.

And this Weizi camp is obviously more mysterious than the West Factory, and it is said that it is more trusted by Ye Xun.

It's no wonder that Liu Qianhu will be closer to him than he is to see his father.

Sun Dong is very low-key, no matter where he is, he always lives in the cheapest and most inconspicuous place, but in order to take care of Liu Qianhu's emotions, Sun Dong still asks Liu Qianhu to a relatively better restaurant.

As soon as they met, Liu Qianhu bowed down and saluted, and said with a smile: "I have seen Lord Sun in my humble position."

Sun Dong waved his hand, smiled indifferently, and said, "Please take a seat!" Sun is a guest from afar, and I ask Liu Qianhu to take care of the affairs of this place."

"That's certain, this is a little bit of humble thought, and please smile at Lord Sun"

Liu Qianhu said as he took out a brocade box from his arms and handed it over, which was five thousand taels of silver tickets, which was a big deal for him.

Sun Dong didn't even look at it, put the brocade box aside, and said directly: "I heard the people you sent say that a few of the people you arrested committed suicide, can you tell me what happened?" ”

Hearing Sun Dong ask, Liu Qianhu also looked bitter, and said: "It's all to blame for the lax precautions, except for the two who committed suicide, others also said some, but only said that all the procedures were handled by the two warehouse officials, even the workers who carried them were brought by the other party themselves, these people did things neatly and well-planned, there was no clue at all!" ”

Sun Dong pinched his chin noncommittally and groaned for a moment before he said, "Has their Shangguan checked?" And their families."

"I went to ask about it, but their superiors didn't know about it, and their family members didn't know about it, not only that, but they also said that they had killed them, and they were going to sue me at the governor's lord! Lord Sun, Grandpa Ye, you can say a few more words for your brother! ”

Jinyiwei is not under the jurisdiction of the local government, but if the matter really makes trouble, Liu Qianhu will definitely not have any good fruit to eat.

Sun Dong didn't believe that there was a single clue in this world, the two warehouse officials committed suicide, obviously trying to protect someone, or someone threatened their family members, and once they confessed, they would operate on their family members, etc.

So this case is not without a trace, but it has not yet found an entry point.

After pondering for a moment, he suddenly smiled and said, "Are the families of these two warehouse officials okay?" ”

Liu Qianhu's IQ obviously couldn't keep up with Sun Dong, so he nodded subconsciously.

"Good! Take my men to them, and we'll take care of the rest, oh! Also, Gonggong Ye, you can rest assured, if this mission goes well, Gonggong Ye may even let Governor Tian promote you! ”

Liu Qianhu was overjoyed when he heard Sun Dong's words, and hurriedly bowed to Sun Dong again, and said with a flattering smile: "Then there is Lord Laosun"...

Soon, news came out on the ground in Chongqing that the two warehouse officials of the armory intended to murder Qincha, although they committed suicide in fear of protecting the people behind them, but in order to protect their families, they still left the evidence about the people behind the scenes to their families.

As soon as this news came out, it immediately caused a lot of sensation in Chongqing, first of all, the people here are not the arrogant goods of the extravagant Chongming, and with the prosperity of commerce and trade, the people are relatively well-informed.

Although Ye Xun is a eunuch, he is also a Han Chinese, Ping Jurchen, Dingchao, open the sea ban, build a water master...

No matter which one, it can make the Han people raise their eyebrows, although the new land policy of the imperial court has not yet been implemented in Shuzhong, but it does not prevent the people from knowing!

Therefore, among the ordinary people of Chongqing, or among the students and soldiers, Ye Xun has a high prestige, and even looks forward to Ye Xun's arrival as soon as possible.

Now Ye Xun inspected Shuzhong on behalf of the emperor, and there were still people who wanted to assassinate him, as soon as the news came out, it immediately caused great indignation among the people of Chongqing, and some people simply openly wrote to the yamen and asked the government to thoroughly investigate the matter.

Chongqing Prefecture is subordinate to the Sichuan Propaganda Envoy Yamen, where the highest administrator is the prefect and the highest military commander is the general soldier.

When the whole city was talking about the suicide of the armory barnster, the prefect Qiu Yu was also in the palace, anxiously waiting for the arrival of the chief soldier Liu Ping.

According to the level, the total army is higher than the prefect, but the Ming Dynasty is like this, the civil and military are cheap, in front of the civil official, no matter how big the military generals have to bow their heads, of course, this situation is useless in Liaodong.

Liu Ping is in his forties, not tall, and his appearance is not outstanding, he belongs to the kind of master who can't be found if he throws it into the crowd.

In fact, he was also very worried, although the armory was in the city, but as the chief soldier of Chongqing, he still lost military supplies, so he could not escape the blame.

It's just that he didn't know that the person who issued the warrant for the transfer of gunpowder was the prefect Qiu Mi.

When he came to the back hall of the prefect's yamen, after seeing the ceremony, without waiting for Liu Ping to ask, Qiu Yu said directly: "There is news that the Weizi camp in Liaodong has long been active in Shuzhong, it seems that Gonggong Ye is prepared this time!" ”

Liu Ping also just heard the news, Jinyiwei is basically a local, and Liu Qianhu is not a master who can keep secrets, so their existence about Sun Dong has been heard by some interested people.

Liu Ping nodded, and said with a solemn face: "I also heard, what is the best plan for Lord Fuzun now?" ”

Qiu Mi subconsciously looked left and right, and said in a low voice: "The incident happened here, although you and I don't know, but there must be some responsibility, in order not to let this matter continue to expand, and at the same time, not to involve you and me, I heard that those two dead ghosts have something left, you send someone to take the two of them..."

Speaking of this, Qiu Yu didn't say any more, just made a killing gesture.

Liu Ping has no ability, and he usually looks at Qiu Mi as the horse, and after listening to Qiu Mi's words, he nodded almost without thinking.

"Don't worry, Lord Fuzun, I'll do it, in addition, I heard that Gonggong Ye has arrived at the Great Scattered Pass, and the people of the Qin family have already gone to greet him, if we don't come forward, I'm afraid it's not good!"

The surname Ye has to be ordered to Chongqing!

These words just said in Qiu Yu's heart, but he said in his mouth: "It's too late, you go to deal with this matter, and the official will immediately gather the gentry in the city to discuss how to welcome Gonggong Ye."

"That is it, then the general will retire first"

After Liu Ping finished speaking, he turned around and left after saluting Qiu Mi.

Qiu Mi looked at Liu Ping's distant back, a cold smile flashed at the corner of his mouth, and he beckoned one of his subordinates waiting in the hall to come over.

"Send someone to report to the prince immediately, everything is going according to plan"...
