Volume 6: The Case of Jing'an Wuning Chapter 165: Return to the Heavenly Workshop
Duan Ming and Xu Shizhong finally brought Qing'er with them.
After leaving the palace, Duan Ming and Xu Shizhong originally wanted to send Qing'er back to the Spiegel Division first and hand it over to Zhucui.
But Qing'er directly refused.
According to Qing'er, the reason why she wanted to come out with Duan Ming and them was to help Wan'er clear her grievances.
Therefore, she couldn't bear that she was like last time, so she could only wait at home for Concubine Ming to come back.
Last time, Qing'er didn't wait for Concubine Ming, and this time Qing'er didn't dare to wait.
"Okay." Duan Ming couldn't resist Qing'er, so he had to agree.
Then Duan Ming and the three of them walked in the direction of the Heavenly Workshop.
According to Song Rengui, the place where the Tiangongfang was moved was not far from the palace, after all, there were many secrets involved in the Tiangongfang, and if it was spread out, it would not be a good thing for Daqi.
Technology is indeed a good thing, but once uncontrollable technology flows into the people, it will cause too many variables.
Soon, Duan Ming and the others came to the gate of the Heavenly Workshop, which was under the guard of the Imperial City Division.
Showing the token that Song Rengui handed over to Duan Ming, Duan Ming and the three of them smoothly entered the Tiangong Workshop.
There was a cloud of smoke in the Tiangong workshop, and all the staff were busy.
"Bang!" At this moment, a loud bang came from a corner of the Heavenly Workshop, and then a flame burst into flames.
"Wow!" Qing'er was frightened and shouted when she saw it: "It's water, it's water!" ”
However, as soon as Qing'er's voice shouted, she saw several old men skillfully pick up a large "pot lid" on the side and buckle it directly on the flame.
In a few seconds, the flames were completely extinguished.
"W-what kind of spell is this?" Qing'er was stunned for a moment.
"Who are you? How did you get in? At this moment, a young man walked over, looked at Duan Ming and said in a deep voice.
"I'm ......" Duan Ming was about to speak, but saw an old man walking over quickly, pushed away the young man in front of him, and said to Duan Ming: "Mr. Duan? Hurry up and see how this goes! ”
Saying that, the old man pulled Duan Ming to an operating table: "According to what you left before, our research is much faster, but there are still many things that have problems......
"The owner of the lonely fang." The corners of Duan Ming's mouth twitched slightly: "That, I have other things......"
That's right, the old man in front of him is the Dugu owner of the Tiangong Workshop.
"What? Who has offended you? Say, I'll blow him up for you! Zhao Kongcheng walked over and said, "Come to me to see that there is something wrong with my experiment." ”
"Well, later, will you talk about it later?" Duan Ming hurriedly waved his hand: "Actually, I came here for one thing, I heard that you made a big explosion in the palace before?" So what's going on? ”
"That's what you say?" The owner of Dugu said: "Zhao Kongcheng, he researched the black powder according to the ratio you left, and then wanted to see the power of the black powder, so he found an unmanned palace to experiment, and the result was blown up." ”
"But it's okay, the palace will blow up if it blows up, and it's good to repair it again."
"......" Duan Ming sighed: "You guys are really experimenting in the palace......"
"Forget it, did Your Majesty say anything at the time?" Duan Ming asked, "Or, did you see anyone at that time?" ”
"Nope." Zhao Kongcheng said: "That palace was carefully selected by me, not to mention people, usually not even a bird will fly into it." ”
“…… Lao Zhao. Duan Ming said in a deep voice: "If it is really as you say, why do you think there are no birds flying in it?" ”
"Uh." Zhao Kongcheng and Dugu Fang Master glanced at each other, sweat on their foreheads: "Could it be, there are really people inside, right?" ”
"Forget it, no matter what, someone has blown it up." Then Zhao Kongcheng said: "But when it was bombed, I really didn't see anyone. ”
"That's right!" At this moment, another Tiangong staff came out and said, "I seemed to see a figure that day, and fled from behind after the explosion. ”
"Huh?" Zhao Kongcheng scratched his head: "There are really people." ”
"That's right." Duan Ming nodded, it seemed that something big had indeed happened.
"What's going on? That person is important? The owner of Dugu asked in a low voice.
"It should be." Duan Ming nodded.
If so, there shouldn't be much of a discrepancy between his previous guesses.
Tiangongfang's experiment on black powder should have injured the hole cards of the royal family.
Due to the loss or temporary loss of the hole cards, His Majesty became jealous of King Jing'an.
Therefore, when several people took turns to write a letter, indicating that King Jing'an might rebel, His Majesty would put the Jing'an Palace's palace into the prison so without hesitation.
In this way, if that "hole card" is restored, His Majesty is likely to restore his trust in King Jing'an.
However, although black powder is far less powerful than modern explosives, it can still be seriously injured if caught off guard.
If that "hole card" cannot be recovered, or the original situation cannot be restored, then His Majesty's fear of King Jing'an will become more and more serious.
However, what bothered Duan Ming the most now was not here, but another problem.
"Senior Zhao." Duan Ming looked at Zhao Kongcheng: "The palace is so big, and there are so many idle palaces, why did you choose Chongming Palace?" ”
"Did someone choose it for you? Or is it really just by chance? ”
"Huh?" Zhao Kongcheng was stunned when he heard this, scratched his head and recalled himself: "I don't remember either, I chose Chongming Palace anyway at that time......"
"Oh, yes!" Suddenly, Zhao Kongcheng's eyes lit up: "I heard others mention it when they chatted before, saying that Chongming Palace is uninhabited, and it is very suitable for doing some hidden things, such as experiments and the like." ”
"Someone else? Who is it? Duan Ming said in a deep voice.
You know, this happened so coincidentally.
The front foot of the heavenly workshop injured the "behind-the-scenes hole card", and someone on the back foot played the Jing'an King to rebel.
If this is a coincidence, no one believes it.
Thinking of this, Duan Ming's gaze swept over the faces of everyone in the Heavenly Workshop in front of him.
In order to realize this, there is another most fundamental condition, that is, it is necessary to know that Zhao Kongcheng has researched black powder.
As for this kind of research project, I'm afraid only the people inside the Tiangongfang know best.
"Who is it?" Zhao Kongcheng tried hard to recall: "I don't know who that person is, but it's definitely a man." ”
"Male? Is it a guard or a squire? Duan Ming asked again.
"Guards, must be guards!" Zhao Kongcheng said: "I remember that person was holding a knife in his hand! ”
