Summon the Mythical Emperor of the World

Inside the Hall of Longevity.

The Minister of Industry suddenly stood up and glared at Cao Zhengchun.

The Minister of the Ministry of Industry never imagined that Cao Zhengchun was so arrogant that he dared to bite the face of the emperor.

His Ministry of Industry Minister was loyal to the emperor and the Tang Dynasty, so how could he leak the gunpowder?

The Minister of Industry turned his head to look at the emperor, and said word by word: "Your Majesty, Cao Zhengchun framed the old minister, and the old minister is willing to use his death to learn from him, and he never leaked half the secret of gunpowder to the outside world!"

Li Siduan sat on the throne of the dragon chair and looked at the minister of the Ministry of Industry who was full of indignation, his expression did not change in the slightest.

"Aiqing, don't rush to get excited."

"Cao Zhengchun told me just now that I found traces of gunpowder in Chang'an City. I was also very curious. Gunpowder is my top secret in the Tang Dynasty. Why did it appear in Chang'an City?"

As soon as Li Si finished speaking, the Minister of Industry's expression changed drastically, as if struck by lightning.

The Minister of Works subconsciously wanted to deny it, but he was solely responsible for the gunpowder issue, and apart from him, only the emperor knew about it.

In the research and development site of the Ministry of Industry outside Chang'an City, only the Minister of the Ministry of Industry can enter and leave at will.

The Minister of Industry can never doubt that the emperor leaked the secret...

"Your Majesty, maybe Cao Zhengchun has made a mistake..."

The Minister of Industry said bravely.

"My lord, I don't know if this is the gunpowder you developed?"

Cao Zhengchun sneered and handed the black powder to the Minister of Industry for a look.

When the Minister of Industry saw the black powder, there was a roar in his mind.

The Minister of Industry can confirm that the black powder in Cao Zhengchun's hands is gunpowder.

However, how did Cao Zhengchun have gunpowder?

Could it really be as Cao Zhengchun said that gunpowder appeared in Chang'an City?

Before the Minister of Industry could understand, Li Si's words suddenly sounded.

"Aiqing, what else do you have to say now?"

Li Si's voice was getting colder. If the Minister of Works really betrayed the Tang Dynasty, Li Si would never allow the Minister of Works to walk out of the palace alive.

The Minister of Industry couldn't stand any longer, and knelt on the ground with a thud: "Your Majesty, the old minister never gave gunpowder to anyone."

"The old minister is well aware of the importance of gunpowder to my Tang Dynasty. From the beginning to the end, the old minister has never told anyone about this, and he has never brought the gunpowder back to Chang'an City..."

Li Si heard the words, looked at the Minister of the Ministry of Housing, and said lightly: "Oh? According to Aiqing's meaning, did this gunpowder fly to Chang'an City by himself?"

"Aiqing, do you think I'm a fool?"

Although Li Si's tone was flat, but the minister of the Ministry of Industry heard it, but he felt like the sky was falling.

Since ancient times, imperial power has been supreme.

No matter how bold the Minister of Industry was, he would not dare to treat the emperor as a fool.

The reason why the emperor said this is obviously that he has lost patience with the Minister of Industry.

It's just that even if the Minister of Industry knows this, he doesn't know how to explain it.

The black powder in Cao Zhengchun's hands was indeed gunpowder.

The iron evidence is like a mountain, even if his Ministry of Industry Minister's statement is broken, he will not be able to wash away his grievances...

"Your Majesty, old minister..."

"Old minister..."

The Minister of Industry was kneeling on the ground, above his neck, cold sweat pouring down like rain.

The Minister of Industry has some hardships.

Even if the Minister of Industry tried to prove his innocence, he knew it was impossible.

"His Majesty."

"Please give the old minister a chance."

"Give the old minister half a month, within half a month, if the old minister still can't find out why the gunpowder leaked,

The old minister volunteered to die! ! "

The Minister of Industry said in a trembling voice.

The Minister of Industry is clear that now the emperor is decisive in killing, and there is no room for sand in his eyes, and now the iron evidence is like a mountain, the emperor will never let himself live again.

The reason why the Minister of Industry said this is just a little unwilling.

His Ministry of Industry Minister clearly did nothing, but he was put on a hat of betraying the Tang Dynasty...

However, what surprised the Minister of Industry was that on the throne of the dragon chair, Li Si suddenly opened his mouth and said, "I'm sure."

As soon as Li Si finished speaking, the Minister of Industry was stunned.

He never dreamed that the emperor actually gave him half a month to investigate?

Li Si sat on the throne of the dragon chair and looked at the Minister of Industry: "I give you half a month to find out the whole story of this matter, otherwise, not only you will die, but your entire family, the young and the young, and the nine clans will all have to die. !"

"Old minister..."

"Old minister obeys the order!!!"

The Minister of Industry burst into tears with excitement.

The reason why the Minister of Industry was so excited was not because he could live another half a month, but because the emperor was willing to give him a chance.

The Minister of Industry is not afraid of death, but the Minister of Industry is afraid that the emperor will not give him even a chance.

Until the Minister of Industry left the palace, it felt as if he was dreaming.

His Minister of Industry, really came out alive?

The Minister of the Ministry of Industry knew in his heart that all of this was due to the emperor's great kindness and great virtue, giving him a chance.

"Who is it?"

"Who brought the gunpowder to Chang'an privately?!"

The Minister of Industry took a deep breath.

He is ready to go back and thoroughly investigate all those involved in making gunpowder.

In the opinion of the Minister of Industry, there must be something wrong with these people!

...

Hall of Longevity.

After the Minister of Works left, Cao Zhengchun handed over his hands and said, "Your Majesty, do you think the Minister of Works is innocent?"

Cao Zhengchun's words revealed doubts.

In Cao Zhengchun's eyes, if His Majesty had any doubts, he would never let the Minister of Works leave.

Even if the real Minister of Industry was framed, at least a visit to the Dongchang dungeon cannot be avoided.

"Betraying the Tang Dynasty, he doesn't have the courage!"

Li Si leaned slightly on the throne of the dragon chair and said.

At first, when Li Si heard Cao Zhengchun reporting this, he thought it was impossible.

The Minister of Industry, He De He Neng, dare to do such a thing?

Until he met the Minister of the Ministry of Industry himself, Li Si was more certain of his thoughts.

After Li Si came in, he had been secretly observing the reaction of the Minister of Industry.

In Li Si's eyes, the performance of the Minister of Industry was not a disguise.

Hearing this, Cao Zhengchun said in surprise, "If it wasn't for the Minister of Industry, who would have left the gunpowder in Chang'an City?"

Li Si shook his head and said, "It will be clear in half a month."

When Li Si said this, he looked at Cao Zhengchun and said, "Cao Zhengchun, in the past two weeks, you will also send someone to investigate this matter."

"I am a little curious, who would dare to lower my eyelids and use gunpowder!"

"Old slave obeys the order."

When Cao Zhengchun heard the words, he withdrew from the Hall of Longevity.

Not long after Cao Zhengchun left, the eunuch came in to report.

"Your Majesty, King Liang has returned."

"At this moment, I'm waiting outside to see Your Majesty and reply to His Majesty."

The attendant eunuch said respectfully.

"Let him in."

Li Si waved his hand.

Soon, King Liang entered the Hall of Longevity.

Compared with when he left Chang'an, King Liang's skin was much darker at this moment, and his eyes were much sharper.

"I have seen Your Majesty!"

King Liang knelt down on one knee and said loudly.

Li Si sat on the throne of the dragon chair and looked at King Liang with a half-smile. .

"How does it feel to be self-respecting during this period of time?"

As soon as Li Si finished speaking, King Liang's expression changed drastically.
