Chapter 1640: Governor, don’t bother me anymore
The two of them just entered Qianzhou City today.
But what is strange is that the people here always lower their heads when walking.
It seems like I'm afraid of being seen by someone.
Not to mention chatting and talking on the street.
The streets along the way were quiet. If you saw this situation in the middle of the night, you would at least be scared to death.
"Shopkeeper, help arrange two rooms." After eating and drinking, Zhao Chen shouted to the shopkeeper of the tavern.
The shopkeeper just nodded and still didn't say anything.
Soon, the waiter in the tavern sent the two of them up, walked to the door, and after pushing open the door, the waiter wanted to leave.
But he didn't want Zhao Chen to catch his arm.
The waiter struggled to leave, but Zhao Chen took out two golden leaves from his arms and handed them to Xiao Er.
Seeing the golden leaves in my hand, Xiao Er's eyes showed signs of emotion.
Looking back, he saw that no one noticed it, so he quickly put Jin Yezi in his arms and turned around and walked into the room.
Then quickly closed the door.
"What's wrong with the young master?" the waiter asked in a low voice.
"Why is there no one in Qianzhou City?"
"Is today a special day?" Zhao Chen and waiter asked.
Li Ke also looked at the waiter with curiosity on his face.
The waiter shook his head, and hesitated on his face. Then he leaned against the door and listened for a while, but he still saw that no one came over.
He said slowly: "Young Master must have just come to Qianzhou City. I don't know what happened in the city a few days ago."
"What happened in the city?" Li Ke quickly asked.
The waiter looked back again, pressed his voice and said, "A few days ago, an explosion occurred in the city, and hundreds of people died under the explosion."
"Some people say that the explosion was a gunpowder explosion, which was the thing that His Highness the King of Han in the court."
"Isn't gunpowder under the control of the court? How could it appear here?" Li Ke asked, and asked Zhao Chen's doubts.
"Hey, who knows this? Some people say it was the gunpowder that His Highness the King of Han made here, and they said they were preparing to deal with the court..."
"Fart!" Li Ke was furious, shocking the waiter.
The little guy's face turned pale.
He hurried out of the room.
In the room, Zhao Chen and Li Ke looked at each other.
After a long silence, Li Ke's voice sounded: "Brother, it seems that Qianzhou City is really the same as what the letter said, and there is a big trick."
"The gunpowder technology is only available in the imperial workshop, and that workshop is managed by your brother. Now there is gunpowder in this Qianzhou."
"Some people even said that it's your brother..."
Li Ke didn't finish his words.
Once the explosion in Qianzhou is related to Zhao Chen, unless sufficient evidence is found, the sewage on Zhao Chen's body cannot be washed away.
But now they are in Qianzhou, and there is not even a person who dares to speak.
How did they start investigating this?
"Tomorrow you will bring people into the city with high profile so that everyone can know that the King of Han has come to Qianzhou." Zhao Chen was silent for a while before slowly saying to Li Ke.
Li Ke was stunned for a moment before he realized that Zhao Chen did not say what he was going to do.
"Where are you, brother?" Li Ke asked quickly.
"You are attracting the attention of Qianzhou officials in front of you, and I am secretly investigating this matter."
"The officials in Qianzhou have never seen me. You can just find someone to deal with the officials in Qianzhou on my behalf." Zhao Chen slowly said his plan.
Since Qianzhou dared to strictly order everyone to speak, the owner of the letter he received must have died at the hands of Qianzhou officials.
Zhao Chen has to investigate in secret.
Maybe something can be discovered.
Li Ke only needs to attract the attention of Qianzhou officials in the front.
"How about sending some people to protect your brother," Li Ke said with some concern.
Zhao Chen waved his hand.
There is absolutely no problem with your skills.
Besides, if you follow others, it will easily arouse suspicion from others.
...
The next morning.
Yan Wenzheng, the governor of Qianzhou, received the news.
King Zhao Chen of Han brought King Li Ke of Shu and the 100 Xuanjia Army to Qianzhou City.
This news shocked Yan Wenzheng.
Although he was worried that Zhao Chen would go to the north on the surface, he actually came to the south.
But I didn't take it to my heart.
Unexpectedly, Zhao Chen actually came to Qianzhou.
Yan Wenzheng quickly summoned officials from all over Qianzhou and organized a large group of old people in Qianzhou to go outside the city to welcome the arrival of the Han King.
"Have you handled the subsequent things?" Yan Wen was waiting for the arrival of the Han King frame, and turned around and asked the generals beside him.
"There have been almost done, and the traces of the explosion have been dealt with. If someone really talks about this, the adults can say that the fireworks production error was wrong, which led to the explosion."
"Maybe the King of Han can't find out anything." The general whispered.
Hearing the general say this, Yan Wenzheng's heart slowly let go.
Yanwen is clear about Zhao Chen's name.
If Zhao Chen found something, Yan Wenzheng would be 90% dead without a place to die.
Yan Wenzheng didn't want that.
"Make more preparations for everything. If King Fei of Han holds on to this matter, let him..." Yan Wenzheng's hand hidden in his sleeves gently killed him and wiped his neck.
The general nodded, and then the two looked forward.
A team of horse-drawn carriages slowly heading towards Qianzhou City Gate.
Yan Wenzheng sorted out his appearance and then quickly met with a smile on his face.
"Yan Wenzheng, the governor of Qianzhou, led all officials in the city to pay homage to His Highness the King of Han and His Highness the King of Shu." Yan Wenzheng stopped in front of the carriage and bowed to worship.
"I'll pay homage to His Highness, King of Han and His Highness, King of Shu." A group of officials of all sizes followed suit and shouted at the carriage.
The carriage lifted half of the curtain, revealing a expressionless face.
"Thank you for your hard work!" The voice in the carriage was extremely indifferent, and after saying that, he put down the curtain.
There was no intention of getting off the carriage to meet Yan Wenzheng and others.
Yan Wenzheng stood there in a daze, not reacting for a while.
He led officials from all over Qianzhou to go out of the city to greet him. Why didn’t the Han king even get off his carriage?
"His Royal Highness of Han..."
"I am running around on the road, and the emperor is not feeling well. Governor Yan, please don't disturb me anymore."
Yan Wenzheng wanted to invite the King of Han to come down to meet everyone again, but saw Li Ke get out of another carriage.
When Yan Wenzheng learned that the Han King was feeling uncomfortable, he realized that he had reacted.
He quickly smiled and said, "I am guilty. I would like to ask His Highness the King of Han and His Highness the King of Shu to come to the city to rest."
Yan Wenzheng made way for the road and the carriage slowly entered the city.
A hundred Xuanjia Army guards behind him entered Qianzhou City together.
Yan Wen was standing there, looking at the convoy slowly entering the city, his face slowly becoming gloomy.
He didn't want anything to be found by the King of Han.
"Someone check it out again, and there must be no mistakes."
"yes!"
