The Shence Army is the reliance of the imperial court, and because of this, the Shence Army is one of the places that the emperor attaches the most importance to.

Therefore, whether the Shence army is clean or not, I am afraid that it can easily provoke the emperor's nerves.

If something goes wrong in the place where you rely on the most, the danger will be magnified many times over.

Therefore, once there may be a problem in the Shence Army, the emperor must be the first person who urgently needs to investigate it thoroughly.

Wei Renshi felt that it was time to let Li Shi know that the person who stole the weapon came from the Shence Army.

So that night, Wei Renshi deliberately waited until it was dark, and then hurriedly left Youjin Wuwei, rushed to the palace, and said to the prison guard that there was an important matter that urgently needed to meet the emperor and ask him to pass it on.

After a short time, the guards of the prison guard came back and let Wei Renshi enter the palace.

Li Shi was in the study, and after Wei Renshi entered, he stepped forward and saluted, and then straightened up, but he didn't say anything, but said: "Your Majesty, although there are many candles in your study, they are still not bright enough. ”

Li Shi was waiting for Wei Renshi to say the important thing in his mouth, but suddenly heard Wei Renshi say this, so he frowned slightly.

Immediately, he turned his head sideways and said, "Wei Qing is right." ”

After that, he put down the song and said to Liu Guangqi beside him: "Liu Guangqi, you go and instruct someone to cook a bowl of gruel for me." ”

Liu Guangqi led the order out and closed the door, only Li Shi and Wei Renshi were left in the study, and Li Shi asked again: "Okay, there are no outsiders here, Wei Qing can talk." ”

Wei Renshi took a step forward, lowered his voice, and said: "The minister sent spies to secretly investigate the theft of new weapons, and there are some results today, but Wei Chen realizes that the matter is very important, and he does not dare to make a decision privately, so he has come to report to His Majesty, and ask His Majesty to decide!" ”

Li Shi's cloudy eyes suddenly froze, and he said in a deep voice: "Say!" ”

"The spies investigated and found out that the two people who stole the weapons were actually from the Shence Army, and the two of them benefited from the fifth Shouliang, the lieutenant of the Guardian Army. At the moment, it is not known what the purpose of the fifth Shouliang benefited from the two of them stealing the new weapon. If you just learned about the existence of the new weapon through some means, you are curious, and you feel that it is only equipped with Jin Wuwei, not for the Shence Army, and you are unhappy and steal it, this is not terrible. He is also commanded by others......"

A hint of fierceness flashed in Li Shi's eyes, and he asked, "Can Wei Qing be sure what those two people said?" ”

Wei Renshi nodded and said, "It was Mr. Ding who personally led the spies to verify it." His Majesty may then summon Mr. Ding to inquire about him. Wei Chen didn't expect that the matter would involve the Shence Army. Therefore, the minister did not dare to make a private decision, so he entered the palace overnight to ask to see His Majesty, and asked His Majesty to decide. ”

"This matter has to be investigated." Li Shi's voice was unquestionable, and he said in a deep voice: "There is no trivial matter in the Shence Army, and this matter must continue to be investigated." Don't be afraid of 10,000, just in case! ”

"Got it!" Wei Ren saluted and said, "It's just that there is a difficulty at the moment, the fifth Shouliang often does not come out in the Shence Army, and it is difficult for spies to manage to enter the Shence Army to investigate the affairs of the Shence Army at close range. At the moment, the spies are mixed in with the miscellaneous servants who are loosening grain and pouring swill for the Shence Army, but it is difficult for them to reach the Fifth Shouliang. ”

Li Shi thought for a while and said, "This is indeed a problem. I will try to insert people into it, and Wei Qing must let them investigate this matter to the bottom of the matter, and there must be no omission. ”

Wei Renshi was overjoyed in his heart, but his face was silent, he bowed and said, "The minister obeys the order!" In this way, the minister went to arrange manpower. ”

Li Shi nodded, waved his hand, and let him leave.

Wei Renshi came out of the palace, exhaled slowly, and went back home.

Next, everything is ready, just wait for those spies to enter the Shence Army.

All Wei Renshi has to do is wait.

Li Shi's methods were really fast, and on the second day, an edict came down, and the roads in the barracks were also hardened and canteens were built in the left and right armies of the Shence Army.

To harden the road surface and build a canteen, manpower is needed. A few spies selected by Ding Liuyong took this opportunity to enter the Shence Army.

Wei Renshi also began to recruit people, and he wanted to harden the ground of the Zuojin Wuwei military camp as well.

Everything went very smoothly, many people were recruited by the people, and Wei Renshi's things on the Zhuangzi were also prepared. The ground of the barracks quickly began to harden with cement.

According to Wei Renshi's plan, the ground in the barracks needs to be hardened with cement and special training fortifications should be built.

Most of the recruited people were homeless people, and Wei Renshi let the craftsmen on his Zhuangzi take the lead.

Those craftsmen from Wei Renshi's Zhuangzi are now familiar with the use of those convenient equipment, and each person is responsible for commanding a people's horse, and Wei Renshi does not need to worry about the construction at all.

So what needs Wei Renshi to be busy at the moment is finally only one newspaper a day.

At the same time, Ma Weilong also found a two-story attic that could be used as a shop in Yankang Fang, not far from Wei Renshi's mansion, and bought it.

Since Wei Renshi planned to start a bookstore, he began to look for it, and now he has finally found it.

It's really not easy to find a shop in Chang'an City.

This shop is very suitable, the layout is somewhat similar to Wei Renshi's dream building in Luoyang City, but there is only one floor of the foyer in front, and there are four courtyards in the back, which is very large, which is larger than Wei Renshi's house in Chang'an City now. It was because the old owner of this family died, and the small one didn't study well, and the gambling completely lost such a big house, and was driven away, and the house was collected and sold. Ma Weilong then bought the title deed.

Wei Renshi designed it simply, and the foyer on the front floor was transformed into an open bookstore, listing bookshelves, anyone can enter and exit at will during the opening time, select books from the shelves, and look through them casually, as long as they are not crumpled and not taken out secretly. Naturally, if you like it, you can buy it and take it away.

These books were printed by Wei Renshi himself, so the price would not be too high, so that ordinary readers could afford them.

As soon as you enter the courtyard at the back, it is divided into some compartments and seats, which are very elegantly arranged, and there are special people to serve, specially for people to read, people who want to read books quietly and comfortably, or people who want to discuss books, you can sit in the private seats to read, and also provide tea and snacks, naturally, you must collect money by the hour.

The two large courtyards at the back can be used as a printing workshop, collecting books for printing and selling, and can also be used as a printing place for newspapers in the future.

Wei Renshi's meaning is to build the courtyard in the middle into a boutique book bar focusing on reading, and the front entrance hall into a public library in Chang'an City, where anyone can come in to read and buy books.
