Wang Quanquan hurriedly rushed towards the explosion, and happened to meet Liu Luming and his party on the way.

"What's going on?"

"I don't know, I just came back."

The two glanced at each other, and then hurriedly ran towards the armory factory together.

When the two arrived at the ordnance factory, the fire was already raging here, and the Jinghuwei and the Shuntianfu Yamen were all here, but they had no way to start in the face of the ferocious fire.

From time to time, explosions were heard, accompanied by bullets, and several people had just been injured as a result, and no one dared to approach it anymore.

"What's going on inside?"

Wang Quan asked a commander of the Jinghu Guard.

"Back to the prince, according to the craftsman, the fire started strangely, and someone should have deliberately set it on fire.

There weren't many casualties, but the projectiles were flying everywhere, and there was really no way to get close. ”

Wang Quanquan nodded and asked Liu Luming on the side:

"What's on fire in the place?"

Liu Luming's face was full of pain and said:

"It's a few hundred improved guns and four guns that have just been produced, plus some ammunition."

"Are there any guns and artillery out there?"

"That's all that was pulled out for test firing today, two hundred guns plus a cannon, and some ammunition from other warehouses."

"You arrange for someone to take strict care of the remaining ordnance, and I'll go to the palace."

After the royal authority finished the order, he walked directly in the direction of the palace.

……

It was late at night, and Wang Quanquan walked alone on the secluded path, and only his footsteps could be heard all around, and after a long time, he said in a deep voice:

"Rats!"

"Yes."

A woman appeared beside him.

"What are the guards for, how could they let people blow up the ordnance factory? How many spies did Wang Zhide plant in Beijing? There was a slight anger in the king's words.

"According to your orders, we secretly sent a lot of additional manpower, and the spies of the second prince also pulled out seventy-seven-eighty-eight, but the people who did it this time didn't even expect us."

"Who?"

"Back to the secret order, it's Su Qiaoqiao."

Wang Quanquan paused when he heard this, his face was full of disbelief, and after a long time, he took another step, and said as he walked:

"Arrest them and put them in prison, and no one can see them without my orders."

"Yes."

When he came to the brightly lit place, Wang Quanquan was alone again, his face cloudy, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

……

In the imperial study, several officials were already waiting here, and the appearance of the king's authority was sinking like water, which made these few people who could support half of the dynasty can't help but be afraid.

"Your Excellency must have heard that the ordnance factory was bombed, and all the guns and artillery were destroyed, and Wang Zhide's move is to challenge the king's bottom line.

Lord Shangshu, are the troops going south ready? ”

Wang Quanquan looked at the military department Shangshu, his eyes were cold, where did the latter dare to say a word, and hurriedly said:

"Back to the prince, you can set off early tomorrow morning, I don't know which general the prince wants to let fight?"

Wang Quanquan said coldly:

"I'll go there myself."

After speaking, he turned his head to look at the cabinet scholar on the side, and asked in a deep voice:

"How's the civil servant's job going?"

"Back to the prince, it has been completed according to your instructions."

"yes, you don't have to hold back."

"Lord Wang, please rest assured, quality and quantity, when it comes to slandering people, several colleagues take advantage of it."

Hearing this, Wang Quanquan frowned and said:

"How can it be said to be slander? If you want the rumors to come true, you who created the rumors must first believe it yourself. ”

"What the prince taught me is that I will ask them to rewrite it." The Cabinet Scholar hurriedly said.

"No, I'm leaving early tomorrow morning, so let's do it first."

Hearing this, the scholar wiped the sweat from his forehead and nodded yes, but he felt pity for the rebellious prince in his heart.

"It's all gone."

The king waved his hand at the crowd.

……

The dark prison was gloomy and damp, and Wang Quanquan had come here for the second time, and the last time was when Wang Zhiquan rebelled.

I don't know if it's a coincidence or fate, the cell where Su Qiaoqiao was in was the one where Wang Zhiqi was imprisoned, located at the bottom of the prison.

For this sister who was picked up halfway, Wang Quanquan has always attached great importance to it.

Whether it's spending money lavishly every day, or going out in the middle of the night to steal the official's mansion, the king can carry it for her, but she shouldn't have anything to do with the king's authority.

Now that I think about it, it was too coincidental for the two to meet at the beginning, as if it was specially arranged, if it wasn't for Wang Quanquan who specially asked Hai Zhu to confirm the events of the year, he would even doubt the identity of his princess.

Pushing open the door of the cell, the layout of the room came into view, still as before, with a ray of sunlight shining through the iron windows, a thin layer of straw on the floor, and a wooden barrel in the corner as a convenient place.

Wang Quanquan frowned and looked at Su Qiaoqiao, who was sitting cross-legged on the ground with his back to him, and didn't know how to speak.

Su Qiaoqiao was very open-minded, turned her head to look at him, then patted the straw beside her, and said:

"You're welcome, just sit down like your own home."

With that, he turned back again and looked at the moon outside through the iron window.

Wang Quanquan was silent, he had also told Su Qiaoqiao this at the beginning. After a moment's hesitation, he walked over to the other and sat down.

Su Qiaoqiao looked up at the moon, her eyes brightened and said:

"You know, this period is the happiest I've ever lived, whether it's you or Koharuko, you all spoil me and let me, and my mother is so good to me in this life.

But the more this happens, the more I feel sorry in my heart, because I owe a favor that must be repaid, and I am really afraid that one day that person will let me kill you.

Luckily, in the end, he just let me blow up the armory. In fact, I was still very nervous before I started, I didn't know what you would do to me, I was afraid that you would do nothing and choose to forgive me.

In that case, I'll be worse than dead. ”

Speaking of this, Su Qiaoqiao turned her head to look at the man beside her who treated her well, and said in a slightly more acrylic tone:

"Brother, I'm sorry for you."

Wang Quanquan closed his eyes, tried to suppress his emotions, and asked in the calmest tone possible:

"What do you owe him that deserves it?"

Su Qiaoqiao turned her head again to look out the window and said:

"When my mother was seriously ill, the man asked someone to see her and take medicine, but then my mother left, and I also knew that he was using me, but I can't forget this kindness."

Speaking of this, Su Qiaoqiao paused and looked at Wang Quanquan again, "Brother, do you hate me?" ”

Wang Quanquan shook his head and said calmly:

"What is there to hate, ask yourself, if I stand in your situation, I will also repay this kindness.

If you say hate, it is better to hate me for appearing too late and making you suffer for so many years, and even more so for hating my father and not fulfilling his responsibilities. ”

Su Qiaoqiao's tears finally flowed, and she said with a crying voice:

"Brother, can you not kill me, I am not afraid of death, I am afraid of owing you. Can you give me another chance, I want to make amends. ”

Wang Quanquan sighed, "Let's talk about everything when I come back." ”

With that, he got up and left the cell.

Su Qiaoqiao looked at the back of Wang Quanquan leaving in a daze, she opened her mouth to keep it, but in the end she didn't say anything.

She had a feeling that her brother was about to disappear.
