Nightwatcher Chapter 111: Lock suspects
Officials of the Criminal Department heard what Liu Gonggong said, thinking that the other party was embarrassing the little Tongluo whose surname was Xu, holding a gloating attitude, and decided that as long as Xu Qi'an said something was wrong, he would immediately attack him and put him down.
Students are actually very good at fighting, but they don't use force.
The government officials and arrestees held a wait-and-see attitude, not caring what clues this reckless gong could give. But they unexpectedly discovered that Lord Fu Yin was not wandering, stopped slightly, and assumed a posture of listening carefully.
Lu Qing whispered: "Did you forget? Xu Qi'an, Xu Qi'an from the tax and silver case."
After her reminder, everyone in the office suddenly woke up and remembered Xu Qi'an.
It’s no wonder that I was familiar with the name just now. It turned out to be the little Kuaishou who turned the tide in the tax case and solved the mystery of fake silver.
Well, now it's the gong for the watchman.
It's no wonder that His Majesty appointed him to be the organizer of the government office.....At this time, the government officials really remembered.
"There is indeed some gain!" Xu Qi'an nodded.
He didn't want to say anything, because both the Criminal Ministry and the government office are competitors, and there is no reason to share the clues with this group of dogs.
But just now I noticed that the little **** took notes and the communication between the Criminal Ministry and the government office without any worries, Xu Qi'an suddenly realized that this might be an opportunity for performance.
Show it to the emperor.
Unsurprisingly, this transcript is to be handed over to the emperor. Just imagine that Emperor Yuan Jing read the transcript and found that both the Criminal Ministry and the government office were actively discussing, giving clues, and working hard to solve the case, but it was even more popular Silent.
What would he think?
Although sharing the information is a bit of a loss, the credit is already on paper.
"In response to Lu's head-catching speculation, I have a few questions." Xu Qi'an and the others looked over and said methodically:
"I went to Sangbo to check this morning. I wanted to blow up the entire Yongzhen Shanhe Temple and the high platform. The amount of gunpowder needed is extremely large."
"Yes, what's the problem?" Lu Qing also went to Sangbo to survey the scene.
"The problem is here. You just said that gunpowder is a strategic material that the court attaches great importance to. All kinds of confidentiality and anti-theft measures are very strict and complete. It is very difficult to smuggle out these gunpowder, not to mention erasure. The corresponding trace?" Xu Qi'an said:
"What kind of person do you think can do this?"
Lu Qing hesitated: "Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry, or two servants."
Everyone was taken aback, and even the **** who lowered his head to record paused.
Xu Qi'an nodded: "If it is Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry and the two servants, then everything is reasonable. With their skills and abilities, it is not impossible to buy the servants in the palace or the officials of the Dali Temple and the Ministry of Rites. It is just that, Is this too stupid?"
Lu Qing frowned: "You mean..."
Xu Qi'an said: "Smuggling such a scale of gunpowder, no matter how clean the hands and feet are, it can't withstand the investigation. I believe that someone who can be a Shangshu and a servant is not so stupid."
Lu Qing nodded: "Since it's not them, where else can provide so much gunpowder besides the Ministry of Engineering?"
Xu Qi'an said: "Is it possible that it was imported from out of town?"
Lu Qing shook his head: "Let’s not talk about the outer city. The inner city charges an entrance tax, and the guards will inspect the goods. The imperial city is even more impossible. How can you smuggle something as conspicuous as gunpowder? Unless the raw materials are shipped in, not gunpowder..."
Lu Qing and Xu Qi'an reasoned with no one else, and there was no reason for others to interrupt. Grandpa Liu was not in a hurry and listened patiently.
The **** who is in charge of making notes, moves the pen like flying, writing faster and faster.
It is not gunpowder that comes in, but raw materials. Among the raw materials of gunpowder, sulfur and charcoal are not precious things. Especially in winter, the carbon consumption in Beijing is very terrible... But saltpeter is a thing under strict control. .... Xu Qi'an in thinking, a lightning bolt struck through his mind.
"Saltpeter mine!?" He stared at Lu Qing with wide eyes.
The pretty face of the female head-catcher was stunned, and then she understood, exclaiming: "Saltpeter!!!"
The faces of the two of them were full of shock. On the other side, Song Tingfeng and Zhu Guangxiao looked at each other, their faces changed slightly.
The four of them personally surveyed the Dahuang Mountain and discovered saltpeter mines there.
Lu Qingping recovered from the shock, various thoughts flashed in her heart, and new doubts arose: "If they really did, what happened to the nine missing people?"
Xu Qi'an slowly said: "It's very simple, plant the blame!"
Then shook his head again: "No, it is to divert our attention and fight for time to escape from the capital."
Lv Qing nodded slightly: "Yes, let us think that the gunpowder came from the Ministry of Industry, and that spies were planted in the court. The focus of the investigation turned to the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Rites, and the Dali Temple."
Grandpa Liu frowned. He found that he couldn't understand the conversation between the two.
Except for the high-ranking Xingbu Shangshu and Chen Fuyin, the others looked at each other and couldn't understand what Xu Qi'an and Lu Qing were talking about.
I always feel like I missed one episode.
Xu Qi'an shook his head: "In this case, there is a doubt that cannot be solved. How did they transport the gunpowder to Sangbo?"
Lu Qing said: "It's very simple. The nine missing officials should have been bought or duressed. I am more inclined to the former."
It makes sense. If the monster can smuggle gunpowder into Sangbo, there must be accomplices. If there is no response from the court, they cannot do it.
Leave aside the twenty-five boys in the court, why did the Yaozu blow up Sangbo?
To be precise, they are plotting the sealed artifact under Sangbo. What use is this sealed artifact for them?
He was thinking, and heard Lu Qing say: "We seem to want to go wrong, because I just noticed a detail..."
The heroic female catcher stared at Xu Qi'an: "Nine missing persons, three errands in the palace, three ceremonies, three Dali Temple... how did they hide the gunpowder from their colleagues? Shipped in?"
Xu Qi'an is not clear about the process of the ancestor worship ceremony. He has not had time to ask the staff and errands responsible for the finishing touches. But after listening to Lu Qing's words, his heart moved: "You mean, three people alone cannot hide My colleagues smuggled gunpowder. Yeah, why did you deliberately separate these nine people? If all these nine people are from the Ministry of Rites, Dali Temple or the palace, it may be possible."
Lu Qing smiled sincerely, it was quite bright.
She appreciates Xu Qi'an the most, she is smart and can immediately understand what she means. Discussing with him is not tired, but can smile knowingly.
Xu Qi'an said: "Therefore, there must be other people helping them, and this person must have the ability to freely enter and exit the imperial city, or be able to send gunpowder into the imperial city..."
Speaking of this, Xu Qi'an looked at Lu Qing again, and they thought of a case.
The case of the official Jinwuwei Xiaoqi.
This case happened the day before the ancestor worship ceremony, and they also took over it personally.
The small banner officer Jinwuwei was killed....Before he was killed, he revealed to his wife that he would take his family out of the capital....Before he died, he was on duty... Xu Qi'an suddenly became clear , Linking the saltpeter mine and the case of Xiaoqi official Liu Han, it is not difficult to draw a truth.
The monsters chase away the Hui households in order to collect the saltpetre mines in Dahuang Mountain, make gunpowder to blow up the mountain and river temple in Yongzhen, and release the seals in Sangbo.
The reason why gunpowder is used is because the palace is heavily guarded and cannot be forced into it, but gunpowder can be carried in without knowing it.
Whether it is the guardian of the Sitianjian, the female national teacher of the human sect, or the high-rank martial artist of the Forbidden Army, they can detect the invasion of the strong, but they cannot detect the dead thing like gunpowder.
Liu Han is just a small banner officer, not so capable, and put gunpowder into the imperial city without telling his superiors.
He's an errand, and the messenger is his superior, and it was the superior who killed him.
Ma De, the demon race is acting, almost the old sow wears a bra, one set after another.
The brothel is full of people—well organized.
As long as Liu Han’s superiors and Jinwuwei are arrested for questioning, everything will be known!
Xu Qi'an quickly targeted a suspicious person: Zhou Baihu!
Xu Qi'an got up and cleared his throat: "Gonggong Liu, sirs, there is still something on the lower labor department, so I retire first."
He looked as usual and his tone was relaxed: "The caller will follow me."
Quickly take people to evacuate.
The officials present are not fools~IndoMTL.com~Although Xu Qian's behavior is normal, when he talks with Lu Qing, his facial expression changes several times and the content of their conversations, although they can’t understand, they don’t prevent them from guessing. Xu Qi'an has found important clues.
Everyone looked at Lu Qing immediately.
Lu Qing played stupid.
Liu Gonggong knocked on the table with his fingers, and urged: "Did Xu Qi'an discover something? Is the case progressing? Hurry up!"
Lu Qingxin said, I have done my best. After all, although I admire Xu Qi'an very much, everyone has no special relationship, nor is it a fiance or something.
Help him hold off for a while, he is already very loyal.
