Yang Wenshi's words made everyone present, including Emperor Xuande, change their expressions drastically.
The Great Zhou had extremely strict control over firearms. Apart from the Military Equipment Supervisor, no one was allowed to get involved in the research and production of firearms. Firearms and blueprints within the Military Equipment Supervisor were not allowed to be taken out.
Now that the firearm has exploded, no one knows what happened. A layer of cold sweat seeped out of Puyi's forehead. What should he do if this thing explodes in a place where the emperor passes by?
Emperor Xuande's face turned even worse, and he ordered Puyi in a deep voice, "Go and take a look. Let Su Yuanzhou and Song Hongshen go in and investigate."
Fu Yi hesitated for a moment and said, "Your Majesty, it's dangerous over there. Please don't go there."
Emperor Xuande glanced at Puyi coldly, "What are you afraid of? I want to see who is so capable."
Of course Puyi didn't dare to persuade him anymore and went down to convey the emperor's order.
Soon, Emperor Xuande brought everyone to the door of the house.
At this time, there was still smoke above the house, and a pungent smell lingered around.
The loud noise scared the people on Yongsheng Street so much that some of them ran out without clothes to see what was going on.
Puyi was afraid of exposing the emperor's identity, so he ordered the Dragon Guards to isolate the people from the periphery.
Su Yuanzhou and Song Hongshen received the emperor's order and went in to search.
Emperor Xuande got off the carriage and stood at the door looking at the house.
"Whose house is this?"
Shen Zhixiu stood aside with his hands down and said nothing.
An official who knew the inside story stepped forward and reported, "Your Majesty, this is the Liu family's house, and the owner is the brother of Liu Mu, the prefect of Huzhou."
Emperor Xuande's mind raced for a moment, and he went over the recent events in Huzhou in his mind.
He even pondered over several officials from Huzhou. Remembering that the Li family's ancestral home was also Huzhou, he connected this matter to the prince, who was close to the Li family.
If Shen Zhixiu knew what the emperor was thinking at this time, he would have to praise the emperor for his wisdom.
At this moment, in the main room, Li Chaoyun's black hair was scattered behind her head, the snow-white skin under her neck was covered with a layer of sweat, and the purple marks on her collarbone were shocking.
She was looking at Chen Ping in horror, not even bothering to cover herself.
"What's going on?"
Chen Ping sat opposite Li Chaoyun. There were several shocking red scratches on his strong back, which looked like fresh injuries.
He was completely unaware that a red bellyband with a lotus pattern was hanging around his waist.
If this hadn't happened, there would probably still be a sexy scene in the house.
Chen Ping reached out and stroked Li Chaoyun's sweaty back, comforting her, "Don't worry, the guards have already gone to check. There's no sound now, so it must have been an accident."
Li Chaoyun looked at the mess on the bed and felt a surge of regret. He shouldn't have messed around with Chen Ping. He didn't know why he couldn't control himself today.
On the round table in the inner room, there was still some lukewarm food and wine. Chen Ping had bought a house today, and he had specially prepared a delicious feast for the two of them to celebrate.
But who would have thought that after three rounds of drinks, he went from the table to the bed in a daze.
While Li Chaoyun was lost in thought, he heard footsteps outside. Chen Ping, a military general, listened carefully and knew there were quite a few people.
He didn't have time to think about what was going on. He subconsciously picked up the quilt and wrapped it around Li Chaoyun, while he frantically searched for his underwear on the ground.
Su Yuanzhou and Song Hongshen didn't give the two much time to react. They quickly walked to the door of the main house and kicked it open.
As for the maids and guards guarding the door, they were taken away by Song Hongshen's men before they could even open their mouths.
When Su Yuanzhou kicked the door open and walked in, his brows were furrowed.
On the bed in the room, Li Chaoyun hid behind the bed curtains wrapped in a quilt, looking at the person who came in horror and anger.
The scene on the ground was awkward: Chen Ping was squatting on the ground, searching for his underwear among a pile of clothes, his head facing the bed and his buttocks towards the door.
So when Su Yuanzhou walked in, the first thing he saw was not Li Chaoyun, nor the mess on the bed, but two lumps of white flesh.
Song Hongshen, who was standing behind Su Yuanzhou, turned his face away and walked out the door in disgust.
Fortunately, Chen Ping quickly found his underwear and put it on randomly, then turned around and glared at Su Yuanzhou.
"How did you get in?"
Chen Ping's question was just a blurt out due to nervousness. In fact, he was frantically trying to figure out the reason for the incident.
As soon as he got the house today, there was a commotion, and Su Yuanzhou and Song Hongshen brought people in so quickly. He absolutely didn't believe that there was no trickery involved.
In a split second, Chen Ping had recalled the details of buying the house. But before he could figure it out, he heard Su Yuanzhou say, "General Chen and the princess have disturbed the emperor. Come with me to see him."
After saying this, without waiting for Li Chaoyun to react, Su Yuanzhou waved his hand, signaling his men to take Chen Ping away.
Seeing that Su Yuanzhou's men took Chen Ping away directly, Li Chaoyun was shocked and angry.
He yelled at the top of his lungs, "Li...Su Yuanzhou, you ungrateful bastard. After all, it was the Li family who raised you. What are you going to do now? Kill us all?"
Su Yuanzhou glanced at Li Chaoyun with disdain, his eyes full of disgust as if he was looking at something dirty.
For the past decade or so, Li Chaoyun had either humiliated him or looked down upon him, repeatedly trampling on his dignity.
He has been patient for many years, waiting for this day.
Kill them all? Li Chaoyun was right. He wanted to kill the Li family completely.
But before killing him, he also wanted Li Chaoyun to have a taste of losing his reputation and being despised by others.
"Princess, please change your clothes and explain anything to the Emperor."
Afterwards, Su Yuanzhou stepped out and waited for Li Chaoyun to change his clothes and come out.
He didn't even bother to say a single sarcastic word to Li Chaoyun.
