Chapter 1204: Right

Zhulan saw that the driver moved too hastily and the oil paper scraped against the broken part of the box. He used too much force and scratched a small hole. She waited for the truck in front to leave.

Zhulan got off the carriage anyway, walked to where the things had fallen, squatted down and looked carefully at the scattered things, and just as she was about to reach out her hand, she was pulled back by someone.

Zhulan looked up, "Lord Rong."

Rong Enqing helped the man up and asked, "What are you looking for?"

Zhulan pointed to the ground and said, "A truck just passed by and dropped something. There was oil paper wrapped inside, and some of the stuff has spilled. I came to take a look."

If Rong Enqing was not the emperor's man, she really would not have explained it directly.

Rong Enqing was stunned, and counted the days. Something was wrong. The caravan from Xuzhou had not yet arrived in the capital. He said to the servant beside him, "Pack up."

The servant carefully took out the handkerchief, "Yes."

Zhulan didn't care anymore when she saw Rong Enqing taking over. Although she didn't touch it, she was used to thinking the worst. It was hidden so tightly, the panicked driver, and the black and gray thing, the only thing that came to her mind was gunpowder.

Zhu Lan was helped by Rong Enqing into the carriage, "Then we'll leave first."

"good."

Rong Enqing signaled the driver to drive slower and more steadily. After everyone had left, Rong Enqing took the handkerchief that the servant had collected, and then got on the carriage to look at it carefully. His heart skipped a beat, and he said, "Let's go."

Half an hour later in the palace, the emperor looked gloomy and asked, "Gunpowder?"

Prince, "Yes, the Zhang family not only hid gunpowder in Xuzhou."

If it weren't for today's discovery, no one would have noticed this batch of gunpowder. The prince felt heavy in his heart. The people guarding the city gate today were bribed, and he didn't know if other gunpowder had been transported into the capital.

Your Majesty, "Check for me and replace this batch of gunpowder for me."

The emperor looked even worse when he thought that there was a batch of gunpowder in the capital. Once it was ignited, there would be countless casualties. What if it was brought into the palace?

The prince said, "Yes."

The emperor's expression softened a lot. "If the road hadn't been repaired, the box wouldn't have hit the ground and broken. This road is well built."

The prince was also afraid, "It's probably because Yang was curious, otherwise Lord Rong En wouldn't have noticed it."

The emperor nodded, "Yes."

The emperor and the prince's impression of Yang suddenly improved significantly.

In the evening, Zhulan shared her discovery, "Although I didn't touch it, my intuition told me it was gunpowder."

Zhou Shuren was shocked, and then said, "Since Rong Enqing has cleaned up, he will definitely find the problem, so there is no need to worry."

Zhu Lan frowned, "It seems that the Zhang family is really going to take action, but using gunpowder is too disregarding of human life."

"They wouldn't think the sacrifice was worth it, but it could be a preparation for escape."

Zhu Lan said coldly, "Whether it's for the sake of fighting for the imperial power or escaping, using gunpowder means you don't take human life seriously."

Zhou Shuren patted Zhulan, "You will suffer the consequences."

"Um."

Afterwards, the couple went back to reading. Zhulan said, "Make me something I need."

Since we are going to teach Changyi, we should prepare everything we can use.

Zhou Shuren took the list written by his wife and said, "Okay, I'll go find Mr. Fang."

Zhulan nodded and continued reading.

The next day, Rongchuan waited for General Hou at sea. Rongchuan only saw two battleships. "General Hou, the defense on the island is very strict. There are also high platforms on it. I suspect there are cannons on the island. You only brought two battleships. Isn't it too few?"

General Hou, "There needs to be a reason to deploy a large number of ships. In order to avoid causing any surprises, the ships will come one after another."

Rongchuan felt relieved then. He was really afraid that if the island was not captured, he would suffer heavy losses.

General Hou continued, "Prince Ning, the emperor has ordered that you are not allowed to disembark when we attack the island. I will watch over you, please forgive me."

Rongchuan wanted to go to the island, but his expression froze, "No room left?"

General Hou smiled and said, "No."

Rongchuan was depressed. Why didn't he go back after he discovered the island? He wanted to go to the island. It was not because he was hot-blooded, but because he didn't want to go back and get beaten. Now his plan was shattered.

General Hou really wanted to send Prince Ning back, but he could not go against the emperor's decision.

In the capital, at Prince Liang's Mansion, Prince Liang looked at the letter on the table and sneered, thinking that Zhang Yang had completely and honestly accepted his fate. This guy really doesn't accept his fate.

King Liang called someone over, gave him a few instructions, and then went to the study.

Less than half an hour later, the messenger returned with a note from the prince. The King of Liang smiled and said to the servant, "Bring me a set of clothes."

Today, Zhulan went to her new house. The house is almost completed, and she came today to see what needs to be modified.

The house is really big. It takes a while to walk from the front yard to the main yard. The house has been simply cleaned, and the discarded wood, stones, etc. have been cleared out.

Zhulan was followed by several daughters-in-law, even Zhao came.

The group first arrived at the main courtyard, which was a little bigger than the house they lived in now. It imitated Jiangnan architecture and was more elegant. The trees had not been transplanted yet, so the main courtyard looked much more empty.

Zhulan saw that her daughters-in-law were curious, "You guys go take a look too. Don't go to the garden, it's under construction, don't bump into anything."

Li and the others had been itching for a long time, "Yes, mother."

Zhulan entered the house. There was nothing new in it, but it was very big and brighter than the house she lived in now.

After strolling for nearly an hour, Zhulan took her daughters-in-law away. Zhulan already had an idea in her mind.

Li said, "Mom, this new house is so beautiful. This is the first time I've seen such a nice house. Mom, do we really want to move in?"

Zhulan smiled and said, "Well, we'll move next year."

The rebuilt house has made people forget what happened here in the past. However, Zhulan still decided to buy more servants after moving in to make the house more popular.

In the theater in the capital, Prince Liang entered the half-open box and saw Zhang Yang humming a tune with his eyes closed.

There was disgust hidden deep in the eyes of King Liang, and he sat some distance away from Zhang Yang.

Zhang Yang slowly opened his eyes. He was much thinner now, but he couldn't get back to his old self. Zhang Yang said, "I thought Fourth Brother wouldn't come back."

King Liang, "I just want to hear what you have to say."

Zhang Yang gestured for the half-open box to be closed and laughed strangely, "I can say a lot, it all depends on what Fourth Brother wants to hear. However, I really love Fourth Brother. In the past year, Fourth Brother has had a really miserable life. Let me count, there have been several assassination attempts alone, it's too miserable."

King Liang did not touch anything on the table, and said sarcastically, "Is that all you want to say?"

Zhang Yang hid his excitement in his eyes, "No, I just feel sorry for my fourth brother who has become a knife in the hands of the prince. This knife will break if it is sharpened for too long."

King Liang, "The Crown Prince is your elder brother from the same mother."

Zhang Yang smiled strangely and waved his hands, "No, no, we are not brothers, Fourth Brother, oh no, Fourth Prince, I will help you."

King Liang, "."

There is a saying that I don’t know whether I should say it or not, but the prince was right!!
