Chapter 197: The arc arrows put together
"Your Highness, do you have any other instructions?"
Since meeting, Gu Hongze has always been called Your Highness. Mo Zizai did not correct him, but said, "There is something else."
"Chen Ying went to the Ministry of Justice to get people. He might have to arrest others later. There is not enough staff at that time, so you can keep some people and go with me to arrest people later."
"Catch others?"
Gu Hongze was a little surprised. Du Xing and Mo Xingkui were arrested, who else should I arrest? "Your Highness, what are the others you are talking about?"
"I don't know yet."
Mo Zizai shook his head and explained: "When I was assassinated just now, someone used a rash. This thing is not something that the Ministry of Justice can touch, and there must be other people involved."
"So check if you can find it today. If you can find it out, just catch it together today."
"Arc sag?"
Hearing the words "Arc" and "Gu Hongze's face changed instantly, and he said in shock and angrily: "What a courage!!!"
Arc sagittals are important weapons for the country. They are usually placed on the city walls for defense. If there are special people to guard them, those who are unmoved will die, let alone embezzle them privately.
Now someone not only embezzled a sag, but also used it to assassinate Mo Zizai. This news suddenly made Gu Hongze explode, "Your Highness, you must pull this person out. If you don't kill his entire clan, it will not be enough to shock the world!"
Mo Zizai nodded slightly and did not refute. The reason why the people who searched the house before showed mercy to exile their families was entirely because he felt that it would not implicate the family just because he felt that it would not implicate them. Therefore, he exiled them.
But now it is different. It is used to use military weapons to assassinate him. This is a very bad thing. Just as Gu Hongze said, if this does not kill the entire clan, then don’t try to shock others.
...
When Mo Zizai returned to his home, Gu Hongze brought a thousand people to follow him. After all, in the absence of human territory, these thousand elites were enough to solve most of the problems.
"Zhou Qi, have you found out?"
After returning to the mansion, the slightly damaged sagittal was placed in the yard. Zhou Qi, who was standing next to the sagittal, shook his head when he heard Mo Zizai's words, and said, "Go back to Your Highness, I have already checked it. All the departments have almost checked it. The sagittals are there, and there is only one place..."
Speaking of this, Zhou Qi paused for a moment, glanced at Gu Hongze behind Mo Zizai with a strange look.
Gu Hongze was stunned by Zhou Qi's sight, but soon he figured out what Zhou Qi meant, and his face couldn't help but look a little ugly, "Mr. Zhou means, have I not checked my Yulin Army yet?"
Zhou Qi was silent for a moment and didn't speak. When there was no problem with each unit, the only one Yulin Army was the most suspicious. However, the Yulin Army had too much ties and he dared not act rashly, so he waited until Mo Zizai came back to make him decide.
Looking at the silent Zhou Qi, Gu Hongze knew that he had made a promise, and his heart sank slightly, but he had absolute confidence in the Yulin Army, so he took a deep breath and assured Mo Zizai: "Your Highness, I am willing to use my head to guarantee that this arrow was definitely not taken out of my Yulin Army."
Then he called his own personal guard directly, "Yan Chengye, take His Highness's men to the military camp and count the number of arc sagittals."
After saying that, Gu Hongze hesitated for a moment, finally gritted his teeth and said, "Don't alarm anyone about this matter, even if the commander asks, don't disclose it!"
When Yan Chengye heard Gu Hongze say that even the commander would be hidden from him, he was stunned for a moment and said hesitantly: "Commander, this..."
"Stop talking nonsense and execute military orders!"
Gu Hongze shouted with a sharp face. Although he had absolute confidence in the Yulin Army, he could not take risks with Mo Zizai. If this arrow really flowed out of the Yulin Army, it means that there were traitors in the Yulin Army. If the count was made with great fanfare, it would be very likely that the traitor would jump over the wall.
Therefore, when it was uncertain whether there were really traitors in the Yulin Army, even the chief commander Liu Boqin had to hide the matter of counting the arrows and arrows. After all, Liu Boqin was also a member of the Imperial Guard.
"No."
Since entering, Mo Zizai has been checking the arrow arrows. At this moment, he heard Gu Hongze's words and said, "The Yulin Army's arrow arrows need not be checked."
"Your Highness, this matter must not be done."
Before others could speak, Gu Hongze hurriedly said, "Although Bei Zhi has confidence in the Yulin Army, this matter is related to the safety of Your Highness and must be done with caution."
"I did not mean that."
Mo Zizai shook his head and said, "I just guessed the origin of this sagittal. It should have nothing to do with your Yulin Army. It's useless to check it."
"Jia Fu, please come here by Ambassador Tao Qiongtao who sent someone to the General Weapon Bureau."
"Tao Qiong?"
Gu Hongze was stunned for a moment and asked in confusion: "Your Highness, did this arc sagittal come from the Ministry of Works?"
"That's not."
Mo Zizai denied Gu Hongze's speculation and explained: "I just saw that this sagittal is not like the original one, but like the assembled one, so I planned to let Tao Qiong come and see it, after all, he is professional."
“Assembled?”
The people present didn't understand what it means, what is assembled? Arc sagittals were originally assembled. Is there any assembly sagittals?
"I mean, this sagittal should not be original, it is more like a piece of parts on the sagittal, so it's very inconsistent."
Seeing that everyone didn't understand, Mo Zizai explained again. Some time ago, he often ran to the Military Equipment Bureau because of steam trains and coal. Usually, he would go to the official business and watch it. By the way, he asked Tao Qiong for some forging knowledge that he was more interested in.
Tao Qiong was a serious master. Under his explanation, although Mo Zizai's forging ability was still not good, his appreciation ability was greatly improved. Therefore, he could tell at a glance that something was wrong with the arc sagittal.
"A lot of sagittals are pieced together?"
After hearing what Mo Zizai said, Gu Hongze had a little thought in his mind, but because Mo Zizai was not sure now, he did not express his guess, but planned to wait for Tao Qiong to come and see what Tao Qiong said.
Tao Qiong did not ask Mo Zizai to wait too long, and soon rushed over, "I have met the prince."
"Don't mention it, Ambassador Tao, come and look at this arc sagittal, can you tell the origin of it?"
"Arc sag?"
Tao Qiong was slightly stunned. I wonder why Mo Zizai was so anxious to ask him to come over to see a sag, but he didn't ask too much, and walked directly to the sag, observing carefully. Just after a look, he frowned, "Prince, there is something wrong with this sag."
"It is not a whole at all, but is pieced together with various parts."
As he said that, Tao Qiong said to Mo Zizai: "In addition to the parts of the sagittal, the people who built this sagittal also used a large number of substitutes, so the quality of this sagittal is far inferior to that of the real sagittal. Although the core components are sagittals, they can also stimulate the power of the sagittals."
"But if you use it for a dozen times at most, this arc sagittal will be ruined."
