As the fuse finally burned out, there was a brief period of calm on the seance stage, but everyone knew it.
A huge energy is brewing in the barrel.
This moment also seemed to everyone to be extremely long.
Then, the barrel of the gun suddenly moved forward, as if it was about to rush out of the trance platform. This scene was caught off guard, and was accompanied by a shocking loud noise, which cut through the sky and broke the tranquility of the entire capital.
boom--!
The cannonball hit the pavilion in the middle of the factory, and the pavilion instantly exploded into powder.
Looking from the God Advent Stage, I saw that Dongchang was calm for a while.
Then it exploded completely, and those Jin Yiwei who were awake and not awake were almost turned into a mess.
After the powder in the pavilion dissipated for a while, many Jin Yiwei poked their heads in to see it.
When they saw that most of the pavilion had been shattered.
They all had stunned expressions. They couldn't understand what was happening.
And the people all over the city were already alarmed.
Many people on the street came out one after another to see what was going on.
At the same time, rumors were flying.
Some people said that Thunder God was angry.
Some people say that God will punish the wicked.
There are also people who link the two previous explosions together.
The place was full of panic.
But not many people understand the truth, but when those jade guards riding fast horses and looking panic-stricken were galloping on the street.
Only then did everyone realize that something was unusual about the matter.
And Zhao Xiaole, the culprit behind all this, had already had the cannon collected and taken all the way back to the West Factory.
This is a test only.
Zhao Xiaole is still very satisfied with the effect.
At the very least, this refers to the accuracy of where to hit, which fully reflects the importance of craftsmanship.
However, the craftsmen were not rewarded this time.
As soon as he returned to the West Factory, he immediately arranged manpower, transferred some of the craftsmen and sent them to Jiangnan.
Where, cannons are made in secret.
Confidentiality first, output second, and quality third.
This is also easy to handle. Some craftsmen are originally from Jiangnan, and they were recruited by Wang Wanwan.
Some of these people also hope to return home.
The assignment work was quickly completed, and for those craftsmen who left, Zhao Xiaole urgently recruited another group to fill the gap again.
…
In the court hall, the court meeting is still going on.
Qin Sining, who was speechless by the question, didn't know how to respond to the prince's sigh.
Wang Yuan and others looked at her with sneers, ready to mock her some more.
Qin Sining could only say: "Your Highness, the Jin Yiwei can actually arrest people everywhere. This authority is too much. I hope Your Highness can restrict it!"
Wang Yuan immediately retorted: "Your Excellency, Prime Minister, don't the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Punishment have limited authority when they take people? How is the difference between Jinyiwei and them? Besides, Dongchang is an institution established by Taizu. It has always been like this. How can you even
Grandpa Taizu dares to question it?"
No matter how he argued this matter, Qin Sining was at a disadvantage.
The prince looked at it, felt unhappy, and was about to give both parties a step down. Just as she was about to speak, a loud noise came from the sky, immediately breaking the peace in the court.
In the smooth and spacious court hall, everyone felt their feet swaying, and they felt like they were about to lose their balance.
What is going on?
What's going on?
Natural disaster or man-made disaster?
Both the prince and the civil and military officials were all panicked.
Everyone's first reaction was that it was a man-made disaster.
If it is a natural disaster, the sky is extremely calm now, and the breeze is blowing, and there is no intention of bringing disaster.
On the contrary, there have been two bombings in Beijing.
Whether judging from experience or intuition, this matter must be related to a man-made disaster. So, who did it?
Where did it happen again?
At this time, everyone had no intention of continuing the government or arguing. After the prince calmed down his emotions, he immediately ordered:
"Why is there such a loud noise in Beijing? Go and order someone to check immediately!"
Soon, the red-armored guards were sent out.
No one in the court had any intention to discuss government affairs. Everyone was secretly speculating, what happened in the capital?
The red-armored guard has not come back yet.
Instead, it was the commander of the Jinyi Guards who came. This commander was promoted by Wang Yuan and his name was Du Jiang.
Since he had a rest today, he did not come to court. However, if something like this happened in Dongchang, it was impossible for him not to come.
Du Jiang walked all the way until he knelt down in front of the palace.
The prince didn't like Du Jiang. She hoped that the first person to come would be Zhao Xiaole, so she frowned and asked, "Du Jiang, can Jin Yiwei find out what's going on?"
Du Jiang kowtowed and said, "Your Highness, something happened in Beijing!"
Du Jiang's appealing way of speaking made many people dissatisfied. Wang Yuan was the first to speak:
"Du Jiang, if you have anything to do, just say it directly, don't be nagging!"
Wang Yuan and others naturally hope that the chaos in Beijing will be as chaotic as possible, but at this juncture, something suddenly happened in Beijing, and he always has an uneasy feeling.
He was anxious to know what had happened.
If the matter has nothing to do with you, that is naturally the best.
If something really happened, he would inevitably be scolded by the third prince!
When Du Jiang saw this, he immediately said: "At the fifth watch today, a huge iron ball fell into the East Factory from nowhere!"
"The iron ball smashed into the library. Fortunately, there were not too many casualties. Most of them were just slightly frightened."
"Iron ball? How could an iron ball suddenly fall into the East Factory?" Wang Yuan was furious and shouted.
Soon, he discovered that this was above the imperial court, not in the East Factory.
After discovering this, Wang Yuan could only snort and stopped asking casual questions.
The prince spoke again: "Du Jiang, can this be verified? How could the iron ball fall into the Dongchang Library? Who can do this?"
Cold sweat broke out on Du Jiang's forehead, "Your Highness, the iron ball has been taken out by the Jin Yiwei and is just outside the palace gate. If you have any questions, please let Your Highness inspect it."
The prince was speechless after hearing the words.
I basically believe it to be true.
But, what exactly is going on?
Who could throw that iron ball into the Dongchang Library? And who could make that huge noise?
Wang Yuan's face had already darkened, and he knelt down and said: "Your Highness, someone underestimated Jin Yiwei so much. Please allow Your Highness to let Jin Yiwei investigate the case and arrest the criminal. Otherwise, this iron ball will not be smashed next time."
Where have you been?"
What Wang Yuan means is, will this iron ball hit the palace? Will it hit His Highness’s East Palace?
Naturally, the prince also had hidden worries in this regard.
So, the prince looked at Qin Sining, nodded and said: "Okay, I allow Jin Yiwei to investigate this matter. In addition, the Ministry of Punishment should also participate!"
