Chapter 799: The Abandoned Son (Subscription Requested) (Page 1/1)
A huge wave of air swept through the entire noon gate, and none of the people outside the noon gate were alive, and many people were not injured and were shocked to death.
The ministers who were discussing in the main hall were also frightened by the explosion, and many people subconsciously thought that it was an earthquake. It wasn't until the ground stopped shaking beneath their feet that they realized something was wrong, and when they ran out of the main hall, they realized that it wasn't an earthquake.
Even the Emperor of the Apocalypse, Zhu Youxiao, who did not go to the court, was shocked, and there were guards to protect Zhu Youxiao's evacuation. It wasn't until someone came to report it that I knew what had happened.
Zhu Youxiao's calm face finally changed color, and the little eunuchs around him were so frightened by the emperor that they didn't dare to move. They had never seen such an emperor, for fear of making a mistake and being directly killed.
"Good! Very good! Zhu Youxiao just said two good words and stopped talking, and it wasn't until Tian Ergeng came to report the loss that he figured out the truth of the matter.
A large amount of gunpowder was placed in the sedan chair of the officials, and the amount used was simply appalling. If such an explosion were caused, the officer would have to crouch inside.
Although the official repeatedly claimed that he was wronged, Jinyiwei did not care about it. Tian Ergeng was already ruthless, and he had to take something out of the official's mouth no matter what.
On the other hand, all the brocade guards in Jingshi moved, and the green skins and hooligans on the streets were affected. Regardless of whether he is guilty or not, he will be arrested first, and for a while, Jinyiwei's cell was overcrowded.
At the same time, the steward of Wang Gong's gunpowder warehouse was restless, and he kept wiping his sweat in the room alone. After taking a sip of tea, he began to circle back and forth in the house, muttering to himself, "What to do!" What to do! ”
It wasn't until he returned home after dark that no Jinyi guard rushed in to arrest anyone, and this person put his heart in his stomach. When I got home, I went to the study without even eating, and locked myself in the study without seeing anyone.
After a day of fear, the storehouse keeper fell asleep on the table. I don't know how long it took for him to wake up.
When he opened his eyes, he fell backwards in fright, and the chair behind him was knocked to the ground. Raised a trembling finger and pointed at the person in front of him and said, "The Jinyi guards are looking for you all over the city, aren't you afraid that I will call someone to arrest you now?" ”
Lin Yuting didn't feel the slightest nervousness, he sat on the chair in front of the bookcase and said, "Okay! Steward Huo, please take care of it, anyway, the gunpowder has already been used, and they will definitely find out who sold me the gunpowder by then! ”
"You! ......" Steward Huo suddenly lost his strength like a deflated ball, picked up a chair and sat on it. looked at Lin Yuting and said with a wry smile: "Shopkeeper Lin's good calculation!" I regret that I shouldn't have accepted that mirror in the first place! Ay! ”
Lin Yuting looked at Steward Huo playfully and said, "Steward Huo! Often walk by the river, how can there be a reason not to get your shoes wet! Today, if you are not planted in my hands, you will be planted in the hands of others. ”
Steward Huo seemed to be out of the way, and said viciously: "Anyway, I can't survive, don't think about it." As long as I catch you, I might be able to turn the corner from danger! ”
"Huh!" Lin Yuting laughed out loud and said leisurely: "Turn the crisis into safety? Don't be funny! Don't you count how many shortages there are in the gunpowder storehouse? Even without me, as long as someone inspects the storeroom, you won't be fine! ”
"It's all death anyway, at least I can still pull you on my back!" Steward Huo said viciously.
"I heard that there is a courtyard in the east of the city, and there is a family in it whose lord is not at home all the year round. The son named Huo Yuan in the family is very handsome, I don't know if Steward Huo has any impression? Lin Yuting ignored Steward Huo and talked about other things on his own.
Steward Huo's face changed greatly when he heard this, it was the outer room he kept in the east of the city, and he had always been very hidden, how could he be known by the person in front of him?
"You~ What do you want? If I hurt them in the slightest, I won't let you go! Steward Huo said excitedly.
Lin Yuting laughed softly, "Steward Huo!" The matter is already like this, and Jin Yiwei will definitely thoroughly investigate the source of gunpowder. And they will definitely not let go of the warehouse of Wang Gong's factory, believe that if I don't come to see you, your one will not let the gunpowder warehouse be investigated.
So! You're just a scapegoat they're throwing at you, and my request is simple, it's just that you confess to the one above. And lo and behold! Too easy. ”
"Nope! No way! Confess to them and I'll die!" Steward Huo shook his head like a rattle.
Lin Yuting glared at him and shouted, "Steward Huo!" You think they're going to keep you alive? Will you spare your family? Neither Zhu Chunchen, the Duke of Chengguo, nor Jin Shang will let you live.
If you confess to them, we will take them to Jeju Island, if you don't confess them, your whole family will die, you choose one! After speaking, Lin Yuting turned around and left.
"Ahh Steward Huo stood on the spot all of a sudden. For a small Beijing official like him, whether it is Chengguo Gong or Jin Shang, it is an unattainable existence, and if he is usually given a thousand dares, he will not dare to betray these people.
But today is different, as long as Jinyi Wei checks the warehouse of Wang Gong's factory, he will definitely be in a catastrophe. The gap in it is too big, and his little steward can't explain it clearly.
Reminiscent of the explosion at the noon gate, it was the face of the heavenly family. was blown up and made a mess, and thinking about that kind of consequence made Steward Huo shudder.
Cutting and killing is the lightest punishment, and it is likely to be executed by a thousand knives. At that time, the family will definitely not be good, the nine clans will not arrive, and the three clans will definitely not run.
If they don't betray those people, will they keep their families? I can also think with my ass that those guys who eat people and don't spit out bones have no credibility at all.
His family must be inescapable, if he had been before, he could only bet that those people could be trustworthy. But it's different now, at least that fierce person is much better than those people in terms of credit.
It was easy for Steward Huo to make a decision, and after figuring it out, Steward Huo let go of everything, and the whole person became relaxed. ordered someone to bring him a pot of good wine and a few side dishes, and Steward Huo poured himself a drink.
Before the third watch, someone came to see him, and it was someone from the Chengguo Mansion. This person came to Steward Huo's study very arrogantly, and said directly without nonsense: "My grandfather said it!" No matter what method you use, you must not let the people of Jinyi Wei approach the storehouse.
Although I can do it boldly, all the consequences will be borne by my grandfather. If it doesn't happen! Hum! Watch your head! ”
Steward Huo agreed with all his mouths, but he was even more determined. If Cheng Guogong promised to keep one of his sons, it would be possible to keep all of his own in such a big way, then there was only one way.
The dead are the easiest to keep secrets, as long as they let the treasury disappear, the next thing to disappear will definitely be their own family.
Looking at the people of the departing Guogong Mansion, there was a trace of pity in Steward Huo's eyes.
It is estimated that this person will disappear when he goes back, and Cheng Guogong will not have anything to do with this matter.
This is the sorrow of the outcast!
