Chapter 318: Making Trouble
The hundred households of the Northern Dragon Guard may be arrogant and domineering in the local area, but in the Capital, especially in front of top nobles, there was still some room for improvement.
Therefore, when Sun Shaozong rushed to the front hall, he saw Jia Shanyao and another hundred households waiting respectfully there. When the maid came forward to serve tea, she served in fear.
Watching Sun Shaozong step in, the two of them quickly knelt on one knee and clasped their fists, saying, "Greetings to Inspector Sun; Im Jia Shanyao [Yang Licai].
Sun Shaozong didn't bother to respond and walked straight toward the main position. The two of them also moved their knees and changed direction.
After sitting firmly on the main seat, Sun Shaozong reached out and falsely supported himself, ordering, "You both can get up.
The two of them just got up from the ground.
Sun Shaozong had heard about Jia Shanyao's stay in the Capital for a long time, so he naturally didn't need to inquire about anything. Therefore, he asked him, "I just heard from the steward of JIa Mansion that you have an urgent matter to report; I wonder what it is?
Just as they exchanged glances, Yang Licai hurriedly went to the door to guard.
This
It seemed that there was something confidential and important.
Sun Shaozong couldn't help but solemnly listen to Jia Shanyao's low voice, saying, "Have you ever heard of the recent installation of new firearms in Shenji Camp?
This matter was still a secret a few days ago, but as for now... Although it might not be well-known, as long as it was slightly related, everyone already knew about it.
People like Sun Shaozong, who had certain channels, even knew that the new type of firearm was originally designed by Prince Yizhong himself, but it was tragically cheaper than Emperor Guangde.
Of course, there was no need to disclose these details to Jia Shanyao.
Sun Shaozong only nodded and said, "I heard we're going to Jinmen Mansion to install them one by one. Is there something wrong with that batch of firearms?
If there was a problem with the firearms in the Shenji Camp, it was also the Five Cities Army and Horse Division that was in a hurry, not the Dragon Guard.
Only when there were safety and quality issues with the firearms produced and preserved by the Military Ordnance Bureau, would it be the turn of the Dragon Guard to investigate.
Your Excellency is indeed a clever person.
Jia Shanyao flattered and said anxiously, "I don't know what happened to the Gunpowder Bureau. Unexpectedly, they lost two new firearms. I also heard a steward die.
This matter is of great concern. His Majesty has issued an order to have our Northern Detective Department fully investigate this case, and at all costs, we must also retrieve those two firearms.
Although it had been anticipated, Sun Shaozong still found it somewhat unbelievable to hear that the Gunpowder Bureau had lost two firearms. It was a military stronghold, and entry and exit inspections were extremely strict. The craftsmen inside were even under the control of the Imperial City Department from birth to death.
Also
Sun Shaozong frowned and said, "Our Northern Detective Department has always been only responsible for affairs outside the Imperial City. This military surveillance is directly under the control of the Inner Court, and it should be within the control of the Southern Detective Department.
Jia Shanyao hurriedly explained, "Originally, the Southern County Magistrate came forward to investigate, but this time it was originally their mistake. Eunuch Dai argued in front of His Majesty and specifically recommended you, so we took over this job.
Nowadays, all of us in the Northern Detective Department are looking forward to your majestic performance to completely suppress the aura of the Southern Detective Department.
Hehe~
The word majestic performance could sometimes be a double-edged sword!
No matter how he thought about this matter, he was afraid it was a tricky "business. In the first place, Sun Shaozong never wanted to get involved, but since Emperor Guangde has issued a decree, could he, as a small inspector, still resist and disobey?
So he hurriedly returned to Rongxi Hall, explained the situation to everyone in Jia Mansion, and resigned.
Jia Zheng highly revered the Three Cardinals and Five Constants. Upon hearing that it was his son-in-law who made the decree, he urged Sun Shaozong to quickly handle the Imperial Mission; he didnt have to worry about anything here.
Although Old Lady Jia and Madam Wang were somewhat unwilling, they also knew that the Emperor's order was difficult to disobey, so they had to let Jia Lian come forward and send Sun Shaozong out of the Rongguo Mansion.
When Sun Shaozong left Rongguo Mansion, he led Jia Shanyao and Yang Licai to the Northern Detective Department. Although it was said that the incident occurred at the Gunpowder Bureau, he always had to thoroughly investigate whether Emperor Guangde wanted to investigate publicly or secretly before deciding how to proceed.
Furthermore, in heavily guarded areas such as the Gunpowder Bureau, there was no official seal to rely on, and investigations were inconvenient and urgent.
Just when he arrived at the Northern Detective Department, Sun Shaozong got off his horse and strode up the steps to cross the threshold. Seeing the scene inside the door, he couldn't help but be surprised.
On the square, there were rows and rows of two or three hundred soldiers, each wearing a black dragon-swallowing cloud robe and carrying autumn feather swords, with a murderous and majestic appearance!
Please change your clothes.
Before Sun Shaozong could react, a hundred households diagonally descended and knelt on one knee, holding a bright yellow bullfighting suit high above their heads.
Tch!
This was clearly going to cause trouble!
At the sight of this battle, how could Sun Shaozong not know that Dai Quan had taken the opportunity to provoke and demonstrate against Eunuch Xia, who controlled the Southern Detective Department?
Oh gosh, the national treasures are lost and they are still thinking of competing for power and profit. These Eunuchs are really not a good thing!
Even though Sun Shaozong was reluctant, he didnt dare show any signs in front of the people. Instead, he extended his arms and gave a faint command, "Get changed.
Jia Shanyao and Yang Licai immediately stepped forward and draped the bright yellow bullfighting suit over Sun Shaozong. Then, from nowhere, they obtained a precious sword inlaid with gold and jade and carefully tied it to Sun Shaozong's waist. contemporary romance
After dressing Sun Shaozong neatly, the two of them took a few more steps back, then rolled over and knelt, clasping their fists on one knee and saying, "Greetings to Inspector Sun.
As soon as the words were finished, the first row of thirty soldiers and men in the square all said, "Greetings to Inspector Sun.
Next up were the second, third, and fourth rows.
Indeed, they deserve to be called the imperial army, and they were freaking good at making a scene!
Although there was a hint of forcing a donkey to dance at this moment, Sun Shaozong pressed the sword on his waist and looked at the hundreds of powerful soldiers, all prostrating themselves at his feet. However, his heart was also surging uncontrollably.
While hesitating whether to say anything, the hundred households who had put on his bullfighting uniforms respectfully said, "The Governor has been waiting in the front hall for a long time. Please move.
Well~
As soon as others finished paying respects to him, it was his turn to greet the big shots.
Sun Shaozong was a bit disappointed in his heart, so he loudly ordered, "Everyone, get up and wait.
After speaking, he walked alone through the military formation and entered the hall.
This time, Governor Lu Hui did not sit on the golden chair but instead placed a table and two chairs at the entrance.
Seeing Sun Shaozong coming in, he smiled and asked, "How do you feel?
Sun Shaozong patted the precious sword on his waist and shrugged. "It's a bit lighter, not very convenient.
Hahaha.
Although the answer was incorrect, Lu Hui was actually more satisfied because it proved that Sun Shaozong had not been fooled by the recent grand scene.
After laughing for a long time, he finally said with a straight face, "Eunuch Dai has no other advice for you, just one
