The God-Level Prodigal Son of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 1652: Be sure to get to the bottom of it

Early the next morning, the Taiji Hall was just filled with people, and the courtiers all over the hall had already started talking about the exciting news that spread in Chang'an City yesterday.

It's not that they insist on talking about it, it's just that the impact of this matter is too great.

If they hadn't heard it with their own ears, how could they have believed that gunpowder had appeared in Qianzhou?

Gunpowder was the most important weapon in the Tang army.

Except for the emperor and Zhao Chen, no one could contact him.

But even so, gunpowder still appeared in Qianzhou, thousands of miles away.

Then it is necessary to consider this matter carefully.

The emperor would never hand over such a thing to an outsider, so now there was only one possibility left.

It was Zhao Chen who leaked the method of making gunpowder, or in other words, it was Zhao Chen who arranged for people to make gunpowder in Qianzhou.

So, what does Zhao Chen want to do?

The gunpowder issue is of great importance. Gunpowder actually appeared in Qianzhou and exploded. How could this gunpowder appear in a place like Qianzhou? Some officials whispered.

Isn't it? This news came from Qianzhou. The King of Han captured Yan Wenzheng, the governor of Qianzhou. But what is the truth of the matter? Someone else echoed next to him.

The King of Han was supposed to be going north, but now not only did he suddenly go south, but there was also a gunpowder explosion. This is very strange.

Gunpowder has always been in the hands of His Majesty and the King of Han, but now it has flown to Qianzhou...

Yeah, I always feel like something is wrong about this.

Many officials discussed that something was wrong, but no one said that they doubted the King of Han.

How dare anyone say this now? Many people in this court support Zhao Chen.

If they say one or two unpleasant things themselves, and there is no evidence at the time, there is no guarantee that they will not get into trouble later.

Your Majesty has arrived! the little eunuch said

The sound rang out, and Baiguan stopped talking and looked upward.

The emperor walked slowly from the side hall, sat comfortably on the dragon chair, and looked calmly at the people in front of him.

I pay homage to Your Majesty. All the officials shouted in unison.

The emperor waved his hand and everyone stood up.

My beloved ministers, may I have a summary for today's court meeting? the emperor said, his eyes sweeping over the officials.

From the looks on many people's faces, the emperor also noticed their attitudes.

I was also thinking in my heart that I was afraid that there would be another verbal quarrel today.

Your Majesty, I have this memorial. An official from the Yushitai stepped out of the team, stood in the center of the Tai Chi Hall, and held his hands toward the emperor.

Yushitai Ginseng is a good hand, and the people in Yushitai are basically very stubborn.

Just look at Wei Zheng and you will know.

But the people at Yushitai have already stood up, and it is impossible for the emperor to say that they will be driven back.

The news reached the emperor's ears yesterday, and he was already prepared to face today's scene.

Go ahead. The emperor waved his hand to the censor to continue.

Your Majesty, I heard everyone in Chang'an City talking yesterday about the fact that the King of Han Dynasty went to the south for inspection. This is inconsistent with the previous plan.

In addition, I also heard that gunpowder appeared in Qianzhou, and many people were injured or killed due to the gunpowder explosion, but His Highness the King of Han actually went to Qianzhou.

I know that gunpowder is extremely important to our country, the Tang Dynasty, so it has always been under the personal control of Your Majesty and the King of Han.

“But where did Qianzhou’s gunpowder come from?”

Okay, why did His Highness the King of Han suddenly go to Qianzhou?

I think that we should

It’s time to recall His Highness the King of Han. The censor said to the emperor with his hands raised, and his voice reached the ears of every official.

Many people nodded along.

For them, gunpowder is of great importance. Gunpowder appeared in Qianzhou, and Zhao Chen went to Qianzhou inexplicably.

This is strange.

If Zhao Chen didn't come back in person to explain, they could only suspect that the gunpowder had gone to Qianzhou and had something to do with Zhao Chen.

In this way, they could only force the emperor to recall Zhao Chen to the capital.

The emperor glanced at the censor in front of him.

Although he knew that there was nothing wrong with what the censor said, the emperor was still inevitably unhappy.

The emperor absolutely believed in Zhao Chen.

If Zhao Chen wanted to get the gunpowder outside, such a big noise would never happen. .??.

But the matter always needs an explanation.

Except for him as the emperor, the only option is to recall Zhao Chen to Chang'an and let him explain the matter clearly.

Besides, everything is just a rumor now, and I haven't even received a letter from Zhao Chen.

What do you mean? The emperor looked at the other officials.

Most people nodded along.

Someone has already come forward, and they don't want to do such an offending thing.

Anyway, just go with the flow, they are not willing to fall into anything else.

Your Majesty, do you want to conduct a thorough investigation of the gunpowder factory? Dai Zhou, the minister of Dali Temple, suddenly said.

Yes, there is no guarantee that there will be no problems in the gunpowder workshop. For example, someone in the gunpowder workshop leaked the secret.

There's no guarantee that it's impossible. It's just that the people in this gunpowder making workshop were all personally selected by His Highness the King of Han. Should we wait until His Highness the King of Han comes back?

When His Highness the King of Han comes back, if there really is a traitor, then it will be

He ran away long ago. Everyone in the gunpowder workshop should be captured now and interrogated by surprise.

I don't agree with this. I don't know whether the gunpowder escaped from Chang'an or not. You are making too much of a fuss.

Making a fuss out of a molehill, do you really know how important gunpowder is to me, the Tang Dynasty?

Whoever you scolded, you scold again.

What's wrong with me scolding you? I'm going to beat you up.

Made...

No one expected that the huge Tai Chi Hall would suddenly become a place for rogues to act mischievously.

The two officials rolled up their sleeves and started hitting each other.

The punches go to the flesh, and no one gives in.

The emperor and other officials were fooled.

Presumptuous! The emperor slammed the table, and the Qianniu Guards on his left and right immediately pushed the two of them to the ground.

Taiji Palace, how dare you be so presumptuous.

Pull out. The emperor waved his hand, and the Qianniu Guards dragged the two of them out of the Tai Chi Hall.

Seeing the two men being dragged away, the emperor took a deep breath at this moment.

He has already understood that this matter is no different than before.

If he did not take any action and still favored Zhao Chen without any scruples, he would probably make all the officials dissatisfied.

After all, they dared to fight in front of him today.

This is not a fight between the two of them, but a way to show their attitude to themselves as the emperor.

Who leaked the gunpowder?

The emperor thought to himself, slowly raised his head, looked at the officials in front of him, and said slowly, Pass on my decree to summon the King of Han back to the capital as soon as possible.

In addition, the Ministry of Punishment, the Ministry of Rites, and the Dali Temple sent personnel to go to Qianzhou to investigate the gunpowder matter.

We must get to the bottom of this matter.
