"Then the gunpowder was most likely brought in after the ancestral worship ceremony, or even brought in under the guise of finishing up the work."
"Then all those responsible for bringing the ancestral worship ceremony to a close are suspects."
"..."
After Su Nan finished speaking, Yang Yan and Nangong Qianrou's expressions changed.
Just by looking at the case file and focusing solely on the explosion, two threads have already been identified!
First, the origin of gunpowder.
Second, the trajectory of gunpowder transportation!
By investigating along these two lines of inquiry, we are sure to find something!
Yang Yan and Nangong Qianrou looked shocked.
This man's wisdom is probably no less than that of his adoptive father!
No wonder he was able to solve this difficult case that day with just the case file of the tax silver case!
If we can find some clues from these two lines of reasoning he mentioned, then solving the Sangbo bombing case is not hopeless.
"Since the main board manager has spoken, then you two can go and do it," Wei Yuan said casually.
Yang Yan and Nangong Qianrou were quite casual with Su Nan, but they were even more respectful to Wei Yuan than to an imperial edict.
"Yes, foster father!"
The two looked at each other.
"I've ordered someone to investigate the officials responsible for the final stages of the ancestral worship ceremony," Yang Yan said.
Nangong Qianrou nodded.
"Then I'll order someone to check the Ministry of Works records."
The two men with golden gongs immediately left Haoqi Tower and sent people to handle these matters.
As members of the Golden Rooster Clan, they naturally wouldn't do such trivial things.
The silver gongs under my command are enough.
……
"Lord Wei, was it you who recommended the official in charge of the Sangbo case to Emperor Yuanjing?"
After the two left, Su Nan finally asked the question that had been bothering him.
If it weren't for Wei Yuan's recommendation...
Why would Emperor Yuanjing suddenly think of him?
"No."
Wei Yuan remained calm.
"It should be the eldest princess."
Huaiqing?!
Su Nan then realized what was happening.
"So that's how it is... The Princess really doesn't let me have any peace..." Su Nan said with a wry smile.
Wei Yuan said calmly, "His Highness Huaiqing probably wants to use this opportunity to let you make a name for yourself in the court and enter officialdom, so that you won't waste your talents in the brothel."
Su Nan took a sip of his drink and clicked his tongue, saying, "But this Sangbo bombing case is not so simple."
Wei Yuan smiled faintly and said, "Even if it's not simple, you still managed to find a clue."
Su Nan calmly looked at Wei Yuan and said, "Lord Wei should know that what I'm talking about is not simple; it's not about a case."
"It's the purpose behind the case."
Wei Yuan's expression gradually turned serious, and he silently took a sip of tea.
"tell me the story."
Su Nan put down the wine gourd in his hand and then said, "Destroying Yongzhen Shanhe Temple is extremely difficult. The thieves went to great lengths to do this, so it couldn't have been just to provoke or show off. It must have some real significance."
"To accomplish this, both internal and external support are indispensable, and this matter also involves many hostile forces of the Great Feng."
"Although Sangbo is the birthplace of the dragon, the most valuable item in the Yongzhen Mountain and River Temple is the national treasure sword!"
"But the case file says that the Zhenguo Sword is safe and sound, and the thieves were not after it."
"Then... what else does Sangboli possess that could make these thieves pay such a heavy price?"
"So I guess there is something inside Sangbo or Yongzhen Mountain and River Temple."
"This thing even needs to be sealed with the National Guardian Sword."
"..."
A strange light flashed in Wei Yuan's eyes.
For the first time, he seriously examined the handsome young man in front of him.
There is something suppressed beneath Sangbo, something he only recently discovered!
Su Nan... actually deduced the truth simply by examining the case?!
What a smart young man!
A hint of admiration appeared in Wei Yuan's eyes.
It's a pity that this young man is too unrestrained and unconventional; he's not cut out to be a night watchman.
Otherwise, he would do anything to bring Su Nan under his command. After him, the night watchman would never have to worry about being without a leader!
It's such a pity.
"You are indeed intelligent."
"However, what is sealed under Sangbo has nothing to do with you."
"As the person in charge, all you need to do is investigate the explosion at Yongzhen Shanhe Temple."
Wei Yuan advised him that he did not want Su Nan to meddle in other people's business.
Because it involves a great deal of information.
"I don't care about that stuff."
"If you run into them, you night watchmen can handle it yourselves; it's none of my business."
"I'll just focus on investigating the case."
Su Nan took a sip of wine and said lightly.
Wei Yuan was speechless upon hearing this.
It seems that I am overthinking it.
Yang Yan and Nangong Qianrou soon returned to the tea room.
They have already ordered their silver gongs to investigate; they won't personally handle such matters.
The two men's attitudes toward Su Nan had changed considerably since then.
This person is truly talented.
They respected Duke Wei not only because Wei Yuan was devoted to the country, but also because of his abilities!
Su Nan also changed the two Jinluo's opinion of him through his own abilities.
"So all we have to do is wait for the results?" Nangong Qianrou (1440485057, note: "Join Group") asked Su Nan.
Su Nan waved his hand.
"It's not that easy."
"I would like to trouble you two to retrieve some case files for me."
Su Nan's words left Yang Yan and Nangong Qianrou looking puzzled.
"file?"
"The case files are all on the desk."
Yang Yan looked at the files on the table and said.
Su Nan shook his head and said, "I don't need the case file of the Sangbo bombing."
"Instead, it's all the recent files related to the demon race, the Witch God Cult, or the hostile forces of the Great Feng Dynasty."
"And the files on the disappearance of officials within Kyoto."
"The area is limited to the Kyoto region."
"..."
Su Nan knew that there were several crucial points to solving the Sangbo bombing case.
He needed to "find" clues from the files of the night watchman's office.
Although the backup group for southern Jiangsu (group number 89396) knew these clues, they still had to find them. (4460)
Otherwise, Wei Yuan would become suspicious of how he knew these things.
The two looked at Wei Yuan again.
After all, these files involve night watchmen and court officials, and whether or not to allow Su Nan, an outsider, to review them is a decision that Wei Yuan needs to make.
Wei Yuan simply uttered three words.
Give it to him.
The two clasped their hands in a fist salute and left.
Soon after, several men carrying numerous files entered the tea room.
The night watchmen had to handle countless cases every day, many of which involved foreign enemies.
Fortunately, Su Nan only requested files from the Kyoto area.
Otherwise, all the files combined could bury this whole house.
