Chapter 114 Post-disaster reconstruction
Li Chengqian is worthy of being the crown prince. Although Ning Wen has never been interested in him, he still admits that the crown prince is the crown prince, and being calm is better than himself.
Li Chengqian took the initiative to take on the heavy responsibility of suing the Ministry of Workers and the Ministry of War. Ning Wen also reminded the craftsmen to use it with ease. After all, the two ministries and commissions had had problems before. Like Ning Wen, they were also guilty. Although they were not considered as the same fate, they were also sympathetic.
The task of post-disaster reconstruction is quite arduous. More than ten houses were damaged. These two days have made the guards suffer. Although it is not yet the cold winter season, the temperature at night is only a few degrees. Ning Wen asked everyone to collect all the wood from collapsed houses, burn a few more fires to clean up the houses that can live in, so that the injured and older ones can live in the first.
Huai Liang and Diao Gui were also tired for a day, and Ning Wen felt a little sad. Before the curfew was still there, he came to a small shop in the west of the city to invite the two to have a few drinks before going home.
"Young magistrate, Diao Guijing has a cup of magistrate. I hope Master Zhou will be lucky and will be awake tomorrow."
Diao Gui glanced at Ning Wen, and his heart was always full of knots. Since Zhou Liangdong came to the Weapons Supervisor, he had the most time to meet Diao Joined the Army, and the two of them also established a very tacit working relationship. This time Zhou Liangdong was injured, Diao Gui also blamed himself. After all, he was responsible for security work, and it was not investigated at this time that such a disaster would be caused. Fortunately, Ning Wen took the blame alone, and Diao Gui was also very grateful.
Ning Wen picked up the wine and took a sip, ate the food silently, but he was thinking in his heart, who was so cruel that he would kill others.
"Guangcheng, coming to drink is related to the reputation of the weapon surveillance. No matter what, we will find out who did it."
Huai Liang's eyes were a little red. Huai Liang was clamoring for the weapon steward to come. Although it was very serious that he was late and retreated early on weekdays, he did think of himself as a weapon steward from the bottom of his heart. When encountering such a big event, Huai Liang's genes that followed his father's body broke out. From yesterday to today, Huai Liang was on the front line, and Huai Liang was also injured at the time of the explosion. A large piece of flesh on his back was torn apart. However, this guy inherited the genes of Mr. Cheng and asked Dr. Sun to apply medicine to him. He has been busy until now.
"Yes, Huai Liang is right. We must find out that it was done by that bastard. Don't tell me about this. Those guards must also explain it clearly and come and drink."
Ning Wen has always been gentle and elegant, but this explosion made Ning Wen understand a truth. As the movie says, there are martial arts and lakes where there are people, and there are struggles where there are people. No matter how low-key or humble you are, it is inevitable. Only by showing your strength can people not dare to act rashly.
The three of them left each other. Ning Wen did not return to the inner courtyard, but went straight to Guo Enxiong's house. Lao Guo was keeping accounts, and the calculation of the Arabic numerals were added. Lao Guo also began to become familiar with using Arabic numerals to keep accounts. Although it was just a turnover, the Arabic numerals were obviously faster than the calculation of the numerals.
“Is it artificial?”
There was only one plate of fried soybeans on Guo Enxiong's table. Ning Wen pinched a few pieces and put them in his mouth and chewed them slowly. Guo Enxiong's reaction was also very intense. He stood up and asked again.
"There are footprints on the wall, but I don't know when it was left behind. It may be yesterday or before, but I am definitely a person with high martial arts skills."
Ning Wen was also skeptical about the light skills recorded in the novel, but today he saw the footprints on the wall, but he couldn't help but disbelieve them. Of course, he didn't believe them all, but he just felt a little incredible.
"Well, there is no question of being a strong martial arts master. Have you ever thought about it? Will there be more than one person?"
Guo Enxiong mentioned it and looked at Ning Wen with a serious expression.
“…it’s also possible.”
Ning Wen thought about it. If it were two, one of them would use his strength to climb over the wall, and the remaining one would hide in the woods, which was possible.
"Look at it again, Guo is sure that there will be another accident in the weapons supervision."
Guo Enxiong unconsciously touched his jaw and pulled a few goat beards. After so long, he still had only a few, and he didn't grow up at all.
Something else might happen. Ning Wen had a headache. Why did he say that he is the chief of the prince now? Who else is so brave that he dares to disturb the prince's affairs?
"It's targeting the prince, that is, the prince is targeting the lord. The prince is just named. The real person is not the one who does things. Besides, if something happens, will the prince take the blame? At most, the prince will not be able to come to Taiwan."

"What, the surname Zhou is still breathing? Doctor Sun really said that? Humph! Where did the people sent to Longyou go?"
It was still the luxury mansion, or a man in his thirties, but his face was filled with sinister expressions and said to the man named Sheng Lian with hatred.
Sheng Lian bowed and replied:
"The person surnamed Zhou is indeed not dead yet. The pigeon sent a message early this morning that he had just left the capital and had not arrived in Ningzhou yet."
The man waved his sleeves and was so angry that he kneaded a picture of a lady on the desk, and threw it hard on the ground and said:
"I found a place to bury it, all of it!"
After Yan Bi, he turned around and left the main hall, turned around and came to the inner room. This time, a beautiful young woman was lying down. She looked at the man with a confused look, reached out and gently pinched between the man's legs, and murmured softly:
"I'm so frigid, why has I been there for so long?"
The man didn't say anything, let go of his clothes and pounced on the beautiful woman's body. He heard the beautiful woman screaming, and there was no movement again.
Outside the house, Sheng Lian stared at the bleak yard with his turbid eyes. Everything that happened in the room seemed to have nothing to do with him. He just thought about the girl in his room, and he didn't know if she would be like this beautiful woman at this moment.

Two days later, Master Zhou finally woke up. After drinking the decoction prescribed by Doctor Sun, he became much more awake. Seeing Ning Wen standing in front of him, he was about to pull Ning Wen to speak regardless of the pain on his body.
"Don't move quickly, just say anything, Ning listen."
Master Zhou didn't struggle to get up, lay on the bed and took a few breaths, and then said to Ning Wen:
"Ahem, Ning... Ning is in charge of the matter... The weapons are thieves, and the thieves are out. This fire... This group is released by the thief. Cough, Zhou... Zhou has a heavy trust from the Lord, Zhou... Zhou can't resist it, so he let the thief be knocked unconscious. Sir, have there any mistakes in the workshop? Cough!"
After saying that, Zhou Liangdong coughed a few times in a hurry and almost couldn't breathe. According to Dr. Sun, Master Zhou inhaled a lot of hot air, and his throat and airways were damaged. It would take many days to recover. He must speak less during this period.
Ning Wen quickly pressed Master Zhou and said carefully:
"Fortunately, fortunately, Master Zhou just cares about recuperating his injuries. Master Zhou does not need to worry about the affairs in the prison. Make plans after he recovers from the injury. Remember not to talk too much, remember."
Master Zhou wanted to say something, but when he saw Ning Wen's serious expression, he nodded and said no more. Huai Liang and Diao Gui did not disturb him. He followed Ning Wen out and built houses everywhere. The blast furnace was not started. The others were recovering as before. Huai Liang did a lot of things, and these craftsmen were also actively working. After all, Mr. Cheng's son was also on the construction site all day long, and he could do it well.
"You guys are thinking about it and see how to add gunpowder to the hollow projectile, and then after the projectile is fired, the gunpowder in the hollow projectile is lit to detonate the projectile!"
Ning Wen looked at the craftsmen around him who came from the generals to serve as prisoners. It was almost half a year since Ning Wen and these people were familiar with each other. He asked these people to find a way to fill the projectiles with gunpowder. Anyway, the projectiles fired by the Tianwei artillery could kill the enemy's vitality. It could not just destroy the city walls. The most urgent thing was to kill and injure people.
