Pain does not ebb and flow like the tide. You need to rest for a while before coming back.
It always holds the soul, like a pair of hands that are always playing with the strings, vibrating the soul.
Li Fangying couldn't remember how many times she fainted. The cold water alleviated the painful burning sensation, and she slowly woke up again and met Liu Changge's eyes as red as hungry wolves.
"Li Fangying, who planned the iron tower warehouse incident?"
Liu Changge asked sternly, placing the knife in his hand and knocking on the white bone.
Li Fangying trembled and gritted her teeth: "It's me!"
Liu Changge shook his head: "It can't be you. According to Gu Yun and others, the people in the Liu family compound were still alive half an hour before they arrived. In other words, someone killed them within half an hour. , the final trap was completed, and all of your men are under the surveillance of the Security Bureau, including the group of people you hid in the dark who were once guard sergeants."
Li Fangying laughed out loud and looked at Liu Changge jokingly: "I said it was me. The Security Bureau is not pervasive. The people I hide in the dark are not just the few you know."
Click.
Liu Changge cut off Li Fangying's hand bones and covered Li Fangying's mouth as she wanted to scream. She was soaked with sweat.
"You don't have to say anything, as long as you can bear it." Liu Changge stepped back and turned to look at Feng Jin: "I want to know the result!"
Feng Jin immediately agreed, took out bottles, cans, knives and axes, and began to serve Li Fangying. There was no need to worry about biting her tongue, after all, Li Fangying's lower teeth had been pulled out.
Pang Huan and Huo Lin returned from the iron tower warehouse with gloomy faces, followed by Lu An, the head of the Gunpowder Department.
After meeting Liu Changge and Tang Buhe, Lu An solemnly said: "I'm afraid the gunpowder explosion in the iron tower warehouse is not as simple as targeting the Security Bureau."
Liu Changge frowned: "How do you say that?"
Lu An lamented sadly: "Through the investigation of the scene, people from the Gunpowder Department unanimously believed that the amount of gunpowder used in the Liu family courtyard explosion was only 2,000 to 2,600 kilograms, and it did not cover the entire courtyard. According to the sulfur, The amount of saltpeter and other materials provided by Li Zengzhi meant that the gunpowder produced was at least five thousand kilograms, but there was no other gunpowder in the Liu family compound, and except for charcoal, there was no sulfur or saltpeter at all."
Liu Changge was horrified and took two steps uneasily: "You mean, the explosion was just a cover, and the other party's real purpose was to make us mistakenly think that all the gunpowder had been destroyed!"
Lu An nodded heavily: "I'm afraid that's the case. In addition, we don't know how much gunpowder was prepared there. Also, of those who died in the Liu family compound, only five of them were gunpowder craftsmen..."
Liu Changge's face turned pale.
There are only five gunpowder craftsmen, so preparing a large amount of gunpowder requires more than five people!
"Someone moved the gunpowder and craftsmen under our noses!"
Tang Buping was shocked.
Huo Lin said solemnly: "The most important thing now is to find the whereabouts of the gunpowder and craftsmen. Since we left through the Shicheng Gate, there will be no traces whether by boat or on foot."
Liu Changge looked at Pang Huan, who nodded slightly: "People have been arranged to investigate, but this time the opponents are probably no longer ordinary Yin soldiers. These people act decisively and ruthlessly, and they show arrogant self-confidence. And boldness is far better than the Yin soldiers."
"Another group of people?"
Liu Changge stared.
Huo Lin stood up and said seriously: "Maybe it's a group of people, but these people work for an unusual master."
Liu Changge stared at Huo Lin: "You mean, Gujin took action?!"
Huo Lin nodded heavily: "If it weren't for ancient and modern times, who would know the location of Li Fangying's gunpowder workshop? If it wasn't for ancient and modern times, who would have another fast, agile, and ruthless team hiding in the dark? If it wasn't for ancient and modern times, who would be able to deploy ingenuity , left quietly, and dared to openly confront the Security Bureau and the Emperor?"
Liu Changge's heart became even more depressed. If it was really ancient and modern, then he would be hiding in the capital! And now, he has taken away the remaining gunpowder, including some gunpowder craftsmen!
If this hidden danger is not eliminated, danger may arise at any time!
"Search one by one, I want to know who is from the past and present, and who is from the past and present!"
Liu Changge was furious and pointed at Qi Ning and Deng You: "You are responsible for interrogating Li Jinglong and Li Zengzhi!"
This time, no one spoke.
Regardless of whether Li Jinglong wanted to rebel or not, it was true that he drew circles and cursed Zhu Yunwen in private, and there was evidence of this. As for Li Zengzhi, he hooked up with an enemy woman and wanted to assassinate her, so he had to be interrogated.
Huo Xunyan and others were also arrested and executed one by one.
There have never been such intensive screams in the Security Bureau dungeon, and this can be regarded as breaking a record.
Li Jinglong couldn't help feeling the pain, and soon he confessed: I don't know the past and the present...
Li Zengzhi was even more weak. He was even incontinent. He was still crying and shouting: You only asked for explanations, but asked questions instead. Ancient and modern, who is ancient and modern...
Li Fangying originally refused to talk about life or death. Seeing that Li Jinglong and Li Zengzhi were about to be chopped alive, she finally couldn't help shouting: "I say, I say, it's the King of Jin!"
Liu Changge and Tang Buping looked at Li Fangying in shock.
Huo Lin stepped forward and scolded sternly: "You are talking nonsense. Jin Wang Zhu Jixi cannot be the ancient and modern king at all. He has neither the courage nor the ability!"
Li Fangying's face was twisted in pain, and she gritted her teeth and said, "Don't underestimate the people of the royal family. For the sake of power, all of them are vicious. Zhu Jixi seems to be honest and honest, but he has killed so many people and made so many plans behind his back." , how do you know? Don’t think that he can’t do anything in the Imperial College, he learned craftsmanship, and learned the word dexterity, he can take everything away under your nose!”
Liu Changge looked a little ugly and looked at Tang Buping: "Is Zhu Jixi in the palace?"
Tang Buping's expression changed and he rushed out of the dungeon.
Liu Changge ignored Li Fangying and arranged for others to continue the interrogation. He followed Tang Buping and rushed to the palace.
Wuying Palace.
Zhu Yunwen looked at the text written by Zhu Jixi, frowned slightly, and said to Zhu Jixi who was kneeling below: "Li Fangying is looking for you and gives you a precious and unique copy, just to treat you to a meal?"
Zhu Jixi still doesn't know what happened outside, so he replied: "I also asked, but Li Fangying only said that one meal is enough."
Zhu Yunwen chuckled and dropped the paper: "Then have you asked Li Fangying whether this meal was eaten at the Security Bureau, at the clan mansion, or at the vegetable market?"
Zhu Jixing looked at Zhu Yunwen in panic, and asked in confusion: "Your Majesty, what does this mean?"
Zhu Yunwen threw down a stack of documents and said coldly: "Look at the good things Li Fangying has done, haven't you told me the truth yet?"
Zhu Jixi picked up a document and quickly swept it away. This was the material that Li Fangying became a Yin soldier, holding the power of the White Lotus Sect and the Yin soldiers, and intended to rebel. The next document was that Li Fangying planned to blow up Zhu Yunwen and Zhu Wenkui. The next document related to the civil and military materials of the Manchu dynasty was about Li Fangying's collusion with Zhu Gaoxu, Xu Zengshou and - Zhu Jixi.
Li Fangying committed the crime of treason, and I, Zhu Jixi, am his accomplice?
Zhu Jixi slumped down, at a loss. He looked up at Zhu Yunwen, who had a murderous look on his face, and said quickly: "Your Majesty, I was wronged. I had no idea that Li Fangying was so rebellious, that the city was so terrible, and that I had never participated in him. Things……"
Zhu Yunwen shook his head in disappointment: "Then I want to ask, why does Li Fangying always look for you at critical moments?"
"this……"
Zhu Jixi wanted to cry, but I didn't know.
Zhu Yunwen gritted his teeth and said, "Zhu Jixi, how long are you going to hide it from me?"
Zhu Jixi hurriedly climbed forward. As he approached the dragon case, just as he was about to plead, a roar came from the door: "Stop!"
Tang Buping held the dart in his hand and almost threw it away.
Liu Changge's waist knife has been drawn out more than halfway.
The chamberlain quickly ran over, knelt down and begged for mercy: "Your Majesty, Commander Liu made them break into Wuying Hall without permission, and we can't stop them..."
Zhu Yunwen looked at Tang Buping who was striding over, picked up Zhu Jixi and threw him away, frowned and asked, "What's the matter?"
Liu Changge searched Zhu Jixi's body and put it down when he saw that there was no murder weapon. He knelt down and apologized: "Your Majesty, we are guilty of breaking into the palace without permission. However, according to Li Fangying's confession, Jin King Zhu Jixi is the leader of the Yin soldiers - Ancient and Modern ! The tragedy in the Liu Family Courtyard was also a clever trick planned by him! Seeing that the situation was urgent and worried about the emperor's safety, I had no choice but to..."
"Is he Gujin?!"
Zhu Yunwen looked at Zhu Jixi with mixed emotions.
Tang Buping asked for an order: "According to Li Fangying's account, he is indeed the king of Jin in ancient and modern times. I also ask the emperor to issue an order to inspect the palace of the Jin Dynasty to find the lost gunpowder and craftsmen!"
"What Gujin, I am not Gujin, Your Majesty, I..."
Zhu Jixi begged.
Zhu Yunwen looked at Zhu Jixi's grief-stricken look, and gritted his teeth and ordered Liu Changge and Tang Buping: "Search the Jin Palace. If you really find evidence, have my house confiscated!"
Zhu Jixing looked at Zhu Yunwen blankly, unable to say a word.
Liu Changge and Tang Buping accepted the order and asked for an order to strengthen the palace guards. Zhu Yunwen obeyed and sent King Jin to the Security Bureau for interrogation.
Shortly afterwards, the Security Bureau and Yulin Guards surrounded Prince Jin's Mansion.
Guo Gang hurriedly reported: "A thousand kilograms of gunpowder were found in the kitchen secret cellar of Prince Jin's Mansion!"
Liu Changge and Tang Buping went to check and found that the gunpowder had been moved out of the cellar.
Xiong Wucheng came over and said, "Under Princess Jin's bed, an ancient and modern token was found."
Liu Changge took it and looked at it carefully. It was a compound order, an ancient and modern order that the man wearing a curtain hat took away! Needless to say, no matter what, the King of Jin is inseparable from the Yin soldiers!
"Report to the Emperor, prepare to raid your home."
Liu Changge's face was gloomy.
At this point, all the clues point to one result: King Zhu Jixi of Jin is ancient and modern!
When Zhu Yunwen heard the news, he was silent for a long time and finally nodded.
The palace of Prince Jin was raided, all the guards in the palace were sent to the Security Bureau for interrogation, and his family members were sent to the clan mansion.
The earthquake in Beijing.
The Jianwen Dynasty has never made Xungui so uneasy. In one day, a prince's palace and a vassal prince's palace were raided!
Xie Jin and Yang Shiqi were in charge of the cabinet, and Tie Xuan was sent to be in charge of the military camp.
Liu Qixia, Duan Yun, Zhou Dazhi, Li De, Arslang and others led the troops on guard. Scouts Suo Jing, Fang Chong and others appeared outside the palace, closely watching every move in the capital...

"First of all, I would like to thank zhang6145 for the reward. In addition, during this period of time, I have seen everyone urging for more updates, asking for more updates, and working hard to update old books. Jingxue has seen it, and I am very grateful for everyone's support. But Jingxue also has difficulties. He explained it many times, and finally explained Down.
I also need to live. The income from this book is not even enough to pay for the mortgage, let alone the various expenses to support my family, so I need to work. In my spare time, how much time can I spare for writing? How much time can I divide into two books? How much energy can I devote to a book? I'm not complaining. I'm busy from seven in the morning to twelve in the evening, every day. There are no holidays, no breaks, and no weekends.
I am also eager to write more old books and update them as soon as possible. I hope to be worthy of your support. But for now, I need to balance my life, and everyone should understand. When I get on track, if I have time, I will resume double updates. I can guarantee that no matter how many months I write the old book, even if it is written after the Chinese New Year, I will finish it normally and it will never be unfinished.
Thank you again for everyone’s understanding and support. Thank you Jingxue. "
