Chapter 1517: Hyogo Suspicions
Xu Congyang heard the prince guess that the weapon was from the armory of the Ministry of War, changed color slightly, and felt a huge pain in the wound, and a imperial doctor said softly: "Lord Xu, bear with me, let's take out the arrow for you, it will be a little painful." ”
Xu Congyang nodded, the two imperial doctors worked together, carefully, and finally took out the arrow, and the blood flowed out immediately, the two of them were also worthy of excellent medical skills, and soon stopped the bleeding, quickly treated the wound, and applied the wound medicine to the wound, a imperial doctor rejoiced: "Lord Xu, the arrow wound is not very strict, and it did not hurt the vital point, and it is just an ordinary arrow, as long as you take a little care, at most a month, you will be fine." ”
But the prince had already said, "Bring the arrow!" ”
When taking the arrow, for convenience, cut an arrow into two sections, an arrow section, an arrow shaft, at this time the arrow with blood, put it in the wooden plate, the imperial doctor held the wooden plate, bowed over, the prince glanced at the arrow, picked up the arrow shaft, looked at it carefully, and finally looked up and said: "That's right, this is something in the arsenal." ”
Xu Congyang's wound arrow was taken out, and he quickly applied hemostatic medicine and painkillers, and the feeling of severe pain in his heart had been relieved a lot, and he was surprised: "Is it really out of Hyogo?" ”
The prince didn't rush to answer, and asked the imperial doctor: "Has Lord Xu's injuries been treated?" ”
"Back to His Highness, it has been dealt with, but in the next ten days, the dressing will be changed every day, and after ten days, if there is no problem with the wound, there will be no major problem."
The prince bowed slightly, raised his hand and said, "You go down first." ”
The two imperial physicians said goodbye and retired, and the prince said: "There are three arsenals in Beijing, in addition to the west city, there are armories in the three cities in the southeast, north and south. The armory is under the jurisdiction of the Treasury Department of the Ministry of War, and these weapons are mainly used to supplement the left and right guards, and the material of the arrows is different from ordinary arrows. I pressed the mechanism on the wheelchair, and the wheelchair automatically moved to Xu Congyang's side.
The prince's leg is ill, and it has been difficult to get out of the wheelchair, although he needs someone to push the wheelchair when he goes out far away, but in this prince's mansion, if there is no one, he can also walk by himself.
The wheelchair is naturally not an ordinary wheelchair, but is carefully made, with a mechanism, and autonomous rotation is just one of the simplest mechanisms.
The prince handed the arrow shaft to Xu Congyang, "Lord Xu, please open it, this arrow shaft is made of birch wood from Liaodong, which is specially used to make the arrows of the Zuòtun Guard, and the arrows in the arsenal are all made of such materials." ”
"I see." Xu Congyang's expression became grim: "Your Highness, if these weapons come out of the arsenal, then there will be a problem on the part of the military department......!" ”
The prince said: "I'm afraid that the military department doesn't know what happened to Hyogo." ”
"Oh?"
The prince sighed: "At an extraordinary time, all ministries are very important, especially the household department and the military department, which are the top priority, so the palace attaches great importance to these two departments, and the officials in the ministry are clear ...... every word and deed every day!" ”
Xu Congyang knew what it meant, so he didn't ask much.
"Your Highness, in that case, which of the three Hyogo has a problem?" Xu Congyang frowned and said: "Without the approval of the Ministry of War, and without His Highness's warrant, it stands to reason that the gate of the arsenal is closed, and a knife and a shot cannot be taken out." ”
"There must be a problem in one of the three Hyogos." The prince's eyes were cold, "Lord Xu, what do you think we should do?" ”
"This ......!" Xu Congyang groaned slightly, "Can you go check the library now?" ”
The prince smiled faintly: "This is naturally possible, but this palace is worried that once the library is checked, it will startle the snake, but there will be chaos, we have not yet determined which place is the problem, we must first figure out which one is wrong, and then we can take action." ”
"If you just don't go to Chaku, how do you know what's wrong?"
The crown prince chuckled and said, "Before Lord Xu arrived, the palace had already sent someone to order the military department to let them do it according to the palace's methods. ”
Within the yamen of the Ministry of War, all of them are as calm as usual, and the Ministry of War has four subordinate departments, one is the military department, the second is the driving department, the third is the staff, and the fourth is the treasury department, and each department has a director.
Hanako, the head of the treasury, sat in the treasury hall, sipping tea, looking very leisurely, just put down the teacup, and someone outside had already reported: "Report, Dongcheng Kuling and Beicheng Kuling ask to see your lord!" ”
After the two Ku Ling came in, Hanako motioned for the two to sit down first and did not speak.
Ku Lingnai is an official of the official Hyogo, holding the key to the armory, and when he saw Hanako, he only let himself sit down and didn't say anything, and both of them were a little dazed.
After only waiting for half an hour, Hua Zixu finally couldn't sit still and asked, "The North City Treasury Order hasn't arrived yet?" ”
"No news yet." There was a voice outside
After a short while, a person hurriedly came and said: "Report to the head of the flower, the Beicheng Kuling was unwell last night, and he was not in the Ku today, and he went to his house to look for him, but he was nowhere to be found." ”
Hanako stood up suddenly, and said in a deep voice: "Immediately report to His Highness the Prison State, there is a change in the North City Arsenal." ”
Several fires in the capital were finally extinguished, and the chaotic people, after a burst of arson and slashing, also hid, and Wu Jingwei searched the whole city and was on full alert.
The grounding order was quickly passed down, and when it was dark, the grounding order had spread to all corners of the capital, and the people were terrified, and the turmoil during the day had already made the people of the capital panic.
Beicheng Hyogo was set up in a relatively remote place in Beicheng, Hyogo built a circle of high walls, outside the high wall, ten steps, one post, five steps and one sentry, except for the library order will often enter the warehouse for inventory, ordinary people can not enter the Hyogo half a step.
When it was dark, a team of men and horses broke the tranquility of the Beicheng Treasury Department, and Wu Jingwei commanded the envoy Chi Buyan to lead a team of men and horses to the arsenal like wolves and tigers.
A guard in the Hyogo had already gone up to stop him, but Chi Buyan didn't speak, he got up from behind Chi Buyan and rode up, and said angrily: "What doesn't have long eyes, get out of the way." "It's the head of the Treasury Department, Hua Zixu.
Hua Zixu also often inspected the treasury, and the guards recognized it, so they hurriedly dodged the road, and Hua Zixu had already asked in a deep voice: "Where did Pang Heng go?" ”
"Pang Kuling was unwell last night, left here, and didn't come here for a day today."
"Why don't you report it?" Hanako said angrily: "He left his post without permission, why didn't you report to the official?" ”
"Master Hua, it's useless to talk about this now, open the door of the library and see what the situation is like in the library." Chi Buyan said in a deep voice with a cold face.
Today's turmoil in the capital, as the head of public security in the capital, he did not say anything, but he did not notice it, and the chaotic people were scattered, which actually made them disappear in the crowd.
Hanako didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly opened the library door.
There are three doors in a row in the arsenal, Hua Zixu took two guards of the arsenal to lead the way, two guards held torches, Chi Buyan followed closely with five or six people, opened the last door, entered the warehouse, and the soldiers behind raised torches, in the warehouse, it was dark, but a lot of military equipment was piled up.
Chi Buyan strode in the warehouse, and after walking to the warehouse, his face suddenly changed color, and he pointed to the front and said, "Master Hua, there were weapons stored here before?" ”
Hua Zixu stepped forward to take a look, her color changed in shock, and her face turned pale, "Chi ...... Commander Chi, this is ......! ”
"I ask you, are there weapons here?"
"There is ......!" There was a large area vacant in front of him, obviously a lot of materials were transported, Hanako also thought in his heart that the Hyogo was heavily defended and heavily guarded, even if the Ku Ling named Pang Heng really wanted to do something, it was impossible to transport a large number of weapons from the warehouse, but the scene in front of him made him scattered, and the weapons that disappeared, he only glanced at the open space, and he knew the approximate number.
"Of course, these weapons were not transported to the front line." The corners of Chi Buyan's eyes twitched, "Let me ask you, where did all these weapons go?" ”
Hanako opened her mouth open, but she didn't know how to answer for a while.
"Master Hua, if you don't give this commander an answer, how can this commander explain to the prince?" Chi Buyan said coldly.
Hanako was covered in cold sweat, suddenly looked at the two guards, and asked sharply, "Did Pang Heng transport weapons from here?" You guarding the Hyogo, you can't be ignorant, say, what the hell is going on? ”
The two guards also knew that something was wrong at this time, and they both knelt on the ground and said in a trembling voice: "The little one swears to the heavens, and I have never seen Pang Kuling take a weapon from the arsenal. The principal knows, even after Pang Ku Ling enters the warehouse, we have to go out of the warehouse door, but also to be lightly inspected, we have done everything in accordance with the law, never made a mistake, Pang Ku Ling every time we go out, we are carefully checked, and Pang Ku Ling is dressed in single clothes, as long as there is a weapon hidden, we can see it, let alone ......! Glancing at the clearing, there was a look of disbelief in his eyes, "Not to mention the loss of so many weapons at once." ”
"Master Hua, what kind of weapons were originally placed here?"
"Commander Chi, if I remember correctly, there are at least thousands of weapons lost here, most of which are short knives, at least more than two thousand, another five or six hundred long knives, and ...... spears!" Hua Zixu looked at it carefully, and after a little calculation, he said: "The spear should be one or two thousand pieces missing......!" ”
"Where's the bow and arrow?"
"There aren't many bows and arrows, only two hundred bows at most."
"Two hundred bows is not much?" Chi Buyan sneered: "This adds up, it's four or five thousand pieces, and now that four or five thousand weapons have disappeared, do you know the consequences?" ”
Of course, Hua Zixu knew the consequences, not only his forehead, but also his vest was already soaked with cold sweat, but he frowned and wondered: "Commander Chi, since these weapons didn't go out from the main gate, did they fly out?" All around the Hyogo are guarded, and the high-walled compound is impossible to transport out without going through the main gate......! The more he thought about it, the more strange it became, and he couldn't help but say to himself: "Could it be that those weapons can't go to heaven and earth?" ”
