The rebirth of the evil woman is not easy to mess with

Chapter 553 Fire saltpeter explosion!
"Boom!"

Immediately afterwards, there was another loud bang, and the flames that were already burning became more vigorous. Qiao Zizhan and the others were swept by the heat wave again, and almost got injured again.

"Go, go, go, get out of here!"

"Help, he's dead!"

"Firefighting, go to the firefighting, Mr. Gao is still inside!"

"..."

Near the brothel, there were screams and screams. Some people were panicking, some were afraid, some were calling for help, all kinds of noises were so loud that they almost deafened their ears.

No, already deaf.

Qiao Zizhan and the others felt their heads buzzing and drowsy, and they instinctively ran in opposite directions.

"Boom boom boom!"

Immediately afterwards, the explosion sounded three more times in that place before it stopped.

However, after the explosion, more than a dozen shops in the vicinity of the brothel have been blown up, and some have even been destroyed.

Qiao Zizhan and the others ran for a long time, and didn't stop until they were out of breath.

Looking back, the sky in the east has been illuminated red by the flames, and there are people from the inspection department rushing by, all rushing to the brothel.

It wasn't until this time that Qiao Zizhan felt that his ears had returned to normal, and then he looked silently at the distance filled with gunpowder smoke.

Next to them, the two of them were deeply moved by their narrow escape, and one of them even patted his chest and gasped: "I... I will never wander around in brothels again!"

The implication is that if there is no problem, I will still go.

Qiao Zizhan glanced at him speechlessly, really... a dog can't change what it eats...

"Brother Zizhan, thank you for saving your life!"

It was another brother who was reliable, Qiao Zizhan saluted him slightly as a return, but soon he fell into thought.

"I'm afraid things will be troublesome!"

"what happened?"

The person who spoke was He Jiangliu, the eldest son of Yushi Zhongcheng He Jian. He touched his nose. The explosion was so violent that there must have been countless casualties, but shouldn't this kind of thing cause headaches for the inspectors?

It has nothing to do with them, why do you think Qiao Zizhan is so conflicted?

"Jiang Liu, your political sensitivity is too weak!" Qiao Zizhan frowned and said, "This is a brothel, how could there be such a powerful explosion?"

As he spoke, he sniffed, and there was a strong smell of gunpowder smoke in the air.

"This is the breath from the fire saltpeter explosion. How could there be such a thing in the brothel? And you see, there must be a lot of fire saltpeter in such a big flame and such a tragic explosion scene!"

In an instant, He Jiangliu understood something, and his face paled for a while: "Someone traded a lot of fire saltpeter in the brothel?"

"It may not be a transaction!"

Qiao Zizhan looked at the direction of the flames with a complicated expression, "Fire saltpeter, one is firearms made by the army to bomb the enemy, and the other is used by Taoist priests to make alchemy.

Because it is an important strategic material, and it is easy to explode in case of fire, the imperial court prohibits large-scale transactions. Now, the explosion here, and the explosion is so violent, it means that someone has stored a lot of fire saltpeter! "

He Jiangliu rubbed his chin and tilted his head: "I used to think that firearms made of fire saltpeter were not very powerful, but now I'm really surprised."

In fact, the power of black gunpowder in history was really impressive when it was first made, and it was a little bit better than firecrackers. It was only after several generations of research and improvement that the power became stronger.

It was only later that after the fall of the Ming Dynasty, firearms were buried with that dynasty.

Da Zhou's current firearms are not very powerful, and the firearms will burn after exploding, and if they are not careful, they will hurt their own people, so when the two armies are fighting, Da Zhou still doesn't use firearms much.

Firearms are not easy to use, but this does not change their status as important strategic materials. If someone hoards fire saltpeter in large quantities, that is treason!
After He Jiangliu figured this out, his expression turned ugly.

He rubbed his swollen stomach, there was too much alcohol, and now he was so frightened that others peed out of fright, but he was so frightened... that he didn't feel like peeing at all!
"I'm afraid there will be another stormy wave in the court, let's go, let's go back quickly and report this matter to father, so that they can make plans early!"

Although they all felt that their family would not have anything to do with this matter, those who have been in the officialdom all year round knew that they should be careful in everything and plan for the worst.

Because only if you are prepared for the worst, can you calmly deal with the great changes that will occur next.

Qi Yun was in the palace and immediately learned of the explosion in a brothel.

Beneath him, a row of inspector chiefs knelt, trembling as they prepared to receive the emperor's wrath.

Sure enough, Qi Yun's face was very ugly, and he snapped at the case: "Go, go! Quickly investigate the explosion of the brothel, and see who dares to hoard so much fire saltpeter under the brothel? Hmph, these people are really big Courage, this is planning to plot against, plot against!"

"Bang bang bang!"

Qi Yun roared and slapped the table.

They quickly kowtowed and said: "Your Majesty, please calm down, I'll go and investigate later!"

"Go, go!"

How dare these people in the inspection department continue to stay?Maybe he would be used as a punching bag by the grumpy emperor, so he ran away quickly.

As soon as they left, Qi Yun sat down slowly, covering his forehead, looking very tired.

"Go, call Yan Luo!"

His eyes were slightly squinted, as if he was resting, but there was a gleam of excitement and excitement in his eyes.

It's coming, it's coming, the real change is coming soon!
Later, Yan Luo came.

Qi Yun immediately got up and asked, "How is he doing?"

This "he" was asking about Li Qingmu.

A few days ago, Qi Yun received news that Li Qingmu was ambushed on his way to Kaiyang and nearly died, but later a group of mysterious people rescued him.

Yan Luo asked if he wanted to investigate the mysterious person?Qi Yun said no, because he knew who saved him.

Besides her, who else will save her?
Thinking of this, Qi Yun's eyes changed slightly.

Yan Luo lowered his eyes and knelt down on one knee, not paying attention to Qi Yun's superfluous expression, he said: "Master Li was rescued, but those people did not give up, and they attacked again halfway, it was still the forces of the world, fortunately at that time They have Duanmu Nan by their side, helping them escape."

"Well, what next?"

"When they reached Fanggu Mountain, they were attacked again by a group of people, but these people were just ordinary people. We were trying to rescue them, but...we were caught first again! Your Majesty, I'm guilty!"

Yan Luo kowtowed again.

Qi Yun relaxed a little, so the child is safe now.

It's just a pain for him.

"The forces of the rivers and lakes are really despicable. They actually let the forces of the rivers and lakes be dispatched, hehe..."

Qi Yun let out a cold laugh, which made people panic.

"Your Majesty, Mr. Li and the others are already on their way back."

"Go and meet them!"

"Your Majesty, but what do you do?"

"I know what's in my heart, don't worry about it, go to meet him quickly, don't let him be in danger again!"

When Qi Yun mentioned "danger", his heart ached.

He didn't know that Li Qingmu's trip this time was so dangerous, it was really close to death.

If he hadn't secretly sent someone to follow him, otherwise he wouldn't have received any news.
