Reborn girl from poor family

Chapter 107 Watching a Tiger Fight (3)

Of course Lai Guojin is from Cao Kaihe, and Lai Guojin's sister is still being raised in Cao Kaihe's backyard.

Is Cao Kaihe stretching his hand so long to let others know how capable he is?

Of course not!

There was Qiu Naicheng who was suppressing him in the position of governor. Even if Cao Kaihe's brain was flooded, he would not publicize this matter.

However, when Lao Zhaotou, the manager of the Zazao Bureau, took out the raw iron and smashed it, the matter could no longer be covered up. Now Yuan Yutao jumped out and pointed out that the mine that destroyed Zhou's house came from the Cao Army.

——What else does Cao Kaihe not understand at this moment? Someone wants to help him publicize things that he doesn’t want to publicize.

Cao Kaihe's eyes slipped past Shen Huai and Qian Yushi, and landed directly on Qiu Naicheng, the governor of Cao. It was definitely not a day's work to bury the chess pieces so deeply. As expected, Qiu Naicheng, a sinister man, He is a lone wolf who doesn't like to howl.

When Qiu Naicheng looked at Cao Kaihe, he could almost read a hint of regret: Who would it be wrong to offend? Why would he have to resort to tricks on someone who refused to suffer for a concubine's brother-in-law? If it hadn't been for Shen Huai's coincidence, he would have Even if we bury ten more old Zhao heads, we may not be able to reap the benefits that we have today.

Shen Huai looked at Yuan Yutao with interest. This man was brave enough to jump out of the mine just for a clue about the mine. How much of it was venomous eyes, and how much was concern and confusion?

He read the concern in Su Ya's eyes from the moment Yuan Yutao entered the door. At this moment, he looked at Song Jin behind Su Ya, and then at Yuan Yutao in the hall with his eyebrows lowered. After thinking about it for a moment, a smile emerged in his mind. At the corner of the mouth.

People who had been paying attention to him began to be in a daze, wondering why Shen Hanlin was laughing suddenly?

Only Cao Kaihe and Qiu Naicheng couldn't care about him. Their eyes were fixed on each other, and they didn't know how many lawsuits they had been involved in.

Everyone held their breath, and no one cared about Liu Yun, the chief trial officer behind Gao's case.

"Check, check hard!"

Finally, someone broke the silence, and the voice was clearly audible in the hall.

It was actually Cao Kaihe.

Qiu Naicheng was robbed of his lines, but he was not angry. He nodded and responded: "What Mr. Cao said is absolutely true. The impact of this case is bad, and it should be investigated to the end."

"According to Caotai's thinking, do you also think that the investigation should start from this water transport?" Cao Kaihe looked very sincere, but there was a hook hidden in his words.

"Water transport?"

Qiu Naicheng stared at Cao Kaihe indifferently and replied calmly: "What does water transportation have to do with this? Besides, I have just returned from supervising the southern line of the canal. I know how everything is going with water transportation. I heard that Mr. Cao was deeply saddened by his death. Xu Ming did not hesitate to make a big fuss in the punishment yamen, but today I see that you are no longer in a hurry to take Xu Ming back to attend the funeral?"

Su Ya listened from behind and pursed her lips tightly for fear of bursting out with laughter. The governor always spoke calmly, but today he was very gloomy.

But it was also really gloomy and enjoyable.

Sure enough, Cao Kaihe was choked by him, and then he said with a stiff face: "How can I not be anxious? It's just that there are many doubts about Xu Ming now, and I can't bear to have him buried in shame for no apparent reason..."

"I see," Qiu Naicheng said in a meaningful voice, "That's just right. Now the matter of the Zazao Bureau has been somewhat understood. In my opinion, if you want to know the truth, you still have to start from the Zazao Bureau. Investigate the clues that have been revealed in the conspiracy."

"...What Mr. Qiu said makes sense," Cao Kaihe pondered for a moment and said, "Then...I will come here today and wait for a detailed investigation later."

Is this going to end today’s court trial? Su Ya was anxious: Wouldn’t that give Cao Kaihe time to breathe?

"Why is General Cao so anxious?" Qiu Naicheng smiled and said, "The affairs of the Zazao Bureau have been investigated, don't you know?"

What's the meaning?

As soon as Qiu Naicheng said this, some people who reacted quickly opened their eyes and started picking their ears, for fear of missing something.

He reacted slowly, with a dull look on his face forming a mask. He stared blankly at Qiu Naicheng's deep-lipped mouth, trying to remember what Lord Cao Du had just said.

Su Ya was refreshed. The few words they said to each other, the flash of swords and the shadows of swords, were not enough to describe them. Now Qiu Naicheng suddenly said something. There was something in his words. Could it be that a sure-kill move was about to come?

She couldn't help but her eyes shone, her gaze flickered between Qiu Naicheng and Cao Kaihe, and she took the time to look outside the hall again, as if the little wolf had seen its prey.

Shen Huai couldn't help but sigh softly, raised his right hand and rubbed his temples.

Qian Yushi next to him immediately asked with concern: "Master Shen, are you okay?"

"It's okay," Shen Huai said softly: "Master Qian, what happened today will definitely alarm the government and the public. You have to watch carefully."

Qian Yushi deeply believed that officials were the emperor's eyes and ears, and the conduct of all officials was measured. All their merits lay in this, and he had no choice but to shoulder the responsibility. At this time, seeing that Shen Huai was unimpeded, he focused his attention on the hall again.

I saw Qiu Naicheng getting up from his seat and raising his voice: "Master Zheng, why don't you show up yet?"

Master Zheng?

Everyone's eyes turned to the door of the main hall in unison.

It's a pity that despite their much-anticipated sincerity, there was no movement at all outside the door.

Some people muttered: What does this mean?

Everyone looked at Qiu Naicheng again, wondering what trick the governor was playing.

Qiu Naicheng's spell didn't work. He coughed lightly, but turned to Shen Huai and asked pleasantly: "Master Shen, look at this, is this...?"

Shen Huai nodded slightly, "Master Qiu, don't be anxious. I think the interrogation of Lai Guojin has delayed a little time, Master Zheng knows it."

Only then did footsteps sound outside the door. Two people came in first, threw a bloody man in their hands into the hall, and stood on both sides holding sabers.

Everyone was so frightened that they held their breath. Isn't that bloody man Lai Guojin, the boss of Zazao Bureau, a tough guy who hasn't hit a fart with ten sticks?

At this time, Boss Na Lai was already worse than when he was beaten with the stick. He struggled to get up from the ground and sat up, and said to Cao Kaihe in fear: "Uncle..."

However, before he said two more words, someone came in from the door.

The first thing that catches the eye is a striking red makeup with flying fish and a complex ribbon. He is about thirty years old, and his face is as sharp and angular as a knife, blowing a cold breath of blood into his face.

When the man entered the door, he said to Shen Huai: "Master Shen was indeed right. This Lai Guojin is not hard-boned and has a lot of evil intentions, so he spent some time verifying it."

He actually regarded all the officials in the hall as invisible.

Cao Kaihe sat in the chair and slowly turned his head towards him. After touching the bright and clear picture of flying fish on his body, his pupils shrank and his face became stiffer.

The visitor greeted Shen Huai, then turned to Qiu Naicheng and Cao Kaihe, saluted and said: "Zheng Bin, Fusi Tiqi from Jinyiwei North Town, has met Mr. Qiu and Mr. Cao."

"Beizhen Fusi", everyone took a breath of cold air.

The North and South Town Fusi only obeyed the emperor's orders and specialized in criminal investigation. Among them, the North Town Fusi was particularly prestigious. It specialized in cases designated by the emperor. It could not only investigate, arrest, torture, and execute those involved in the case on its own, but it was even more frightening. What is surprising is that Beizhen Fusi is not subject to the supervision of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, the Ministry of Punishment, the Dali Temple and other agencies. It has a special "Edict Prison" and its bloody reputation is known all over the world. Who would not be frightened after hearing this?

They are like a group of vultures that eat corpses. As long as they smell the slightest smell of blood, they will pinch them until they die!

In this situation, who is Jin Yiwei targeting?

Zheng Bin looked fierce, but he was very considerate. There were two smile lines on his lips. He might as well have said without smiling: "I followed the emperor's order to Guangxi for investigation and followed him all the way."

What he said was unclear. He went to Guangxi to find out who and what happened, what clues he had followed along the way, and what results he had obtained now. None of the information was disclosed.

However, there are several people in this hall who are well aware of this. Not to mention the letters between Shen Huai and Beijing, even Qiu Naicheng and Cao Kaihe have already received the information:

As soon as the first month of the lunar month entered, the Fusi of Jinyiwei North Town had already sent personnel, together with the supervisory censor from the Metropolitan Procuratorate, to Guangxi to secretly investigate all matters related to General Zhao Qingpingxi of Zhenxi. It has been more than a month now.

Looking at Zheng Bin's posture, Zhao Qing might be in trouble!

Cao Kaihe's heart kept sinking. Sure enough, he saw Zheng Bin's mouth opening and closing, and heard his voice again: "From now on, the murder of the prince's minister, the case of Hanlin Chen Huai, and the case of Huai'an All cases of missing weapons from the Miscellaneous Manufacturing Bureau will be handed over to the Beizhen Fu Division for investigation and handling."

Cao Kaihe's head was buzzing, it was over.

How powerful was ancient Chinese gunpowder technology?

Regarding the remains of the fire bomb that blew up the Huaiyue Pavilion of Zhou's residence, and Yuan Yutao's statement about the mine dredging of the river in the previous chapter, some readers expressed surprise.

Many people do not believe that gunpowder technology in the Ming Dynasty was so advanced.

In fact, this kind of surprise is understandable. After all, in the minds of many people, even though gunpowder is one of China's four great inventions, it has been crushed by Western firearms technology for hundreds of years (the achievements reached their peak in the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China). This left many people with the impression that our gunpowder technology was extremely backward.

Actually, this is really a misunderstanding.

A large number of formulas were recorded in the Ming Dynasty's "Weapon Records. Firearms Making Methods" and "Bing Lu. Fire Attack Medicine Properties". The research and purification technology on the properties and functions of various raw materials are at the world's leading level. To give a brief example : The Ming Dynasty’s fire saltpeter purification technology, five hundred years later, is still comparable to modern technology.

The gunpowder firearms born under the hands of our ancestors have been very carefully classified and applied. Some are used for alarms, some are used for blasting, some are used for long-range shooting, and so on. The only recorded varieties are There are more than 90 kinds of them. Even the timing ones that everyone thinks are very modern were already available in the Ming Dynasty~
