"But if we don't stop the tyrant, our plan will fail! We have already dug up the Chongwen Sect!"

Student Wang Yuru said to a group of gentry impatiently.

"There is also gunpowder, which I secretly transported from Wanggong Factory to the cellar of Yiminfang. However, it must be found that it is only a few days ago. The Gunpowder Bureau and Wanggong Factory are now in strict management! In addition, there is no warehouse that Wanggong Factory specializes in gunpowder, and it will be agglomerated after being kept in ordinary houses for a long time. If you can't kill the tyrant by digging tunnels this time, you will not have such a good opportunity in the future!"

said Zhang Jian, ambassador of the Ministry of Works.

"The same is true for digging tunnels. We have worked hard for half a year and are waiting to kill the tyrant recently to exchange for a new world! But now, if the tyrant really leaves, it will take at least half a year to come back. No one knows if there will be any other changes!"

Wang Yuru nodded.

"That's right, for example, before, he suddenly stopped living in the Qing Palace and moved to Damingyuan, which made it very difficult for us to plan to dig tunnels to kill him. In Damingyuan, there are many pavilions and pavilions, so it is even more difficult to find out where he lives. Now he can only wait for him to attend the ceremony to kill him and those treacherous ministers in the Huangji Palace area! But the tyrant is leaving the capital now, which undoubtedly adds variables. Who knows when he will come back to participate in the ceremony? The underground cornerstone water level is often changed. In addition, the longer it drags on, the greater the possibility of discovering the East Factory."

The juren Fang Heng also nodded.

Zhu Youxiao implemented the new policy, which seriously damaged the interests of powerful and noble gentry. Although most of them had accepted their fate or transformed into new types of powerful and noble gentry, that is, they changed to land management to capital management, but there were still some extreme people who were radicalized due to their damage to interests and did some extreme things.

This is basically the lower class of the ruling class.

In particular, after Zhu Youxiao issued an order to implement the integration of officials and gentry, they made them even more dissatisfied with the lack of commercial operations and the lack of public and gentry life and living leisurely.

At this time, these gentry who plotted to blow up Zhu Youxiao by digging tunnels were some lower-level gentry.

"Or why don't you forget it. Even if the tyrant doesn't leave the city, it's hard to say whether he can dig up the palace city or blow up the tyrant. Besides, there are such a big change now, and the gunpowder side is really undesirable!"

Zhang Jian said uneasyly.

"Then let everyone who is digging the tunnel come out?"

Wang Yuru asked, and said, "It's a pity to think about it. It took a lot of effort to dig the tunnel!"

"Retreat! After all, it is a disaster for the nine clans. If you can get rid of the tyrant with 100% sure, it would be fine. But now that the tyrant is about to leave, the gunpowder side cannot be delayed for too long, and it may not be possible to blow up the tyrant. Why not just say that."

Fang Heng suggested.

"Okay! I'll let them retreat!"

Wang Yuru nodded.

"When you evacuate, you can only come out in the morning, not in the evening. Now the curfews of each yard are very strict. There are many patrol officers and soldiers, and there are many open and secret whistles. Once you are discovered, you will be arrested first and be questioned as spies! In the afternoon, there are too many people, and it is also arousing suspicion. You can only come out quietly in the morning and hide in the house. When the gates and city gates open, it is the most appropriate to come out."

Zhang Jian suggested.

Wang Yuru replied, "I know!"

...

On this day, Zhu Youxiao took his queen, an unpregnant young concubine and six princes born in the third year of Tianqi to leave the capital and come to Liaodong.

In order to leave the capital as soon as possible, Zhu Youxiao issued an order to leave the palace ceremony on the grounds that he tried not to disturb the people. Therefore, Zhu Youxiao did not first parade the military and accepted the sending of the ministers staying in the capital, so he hurriedly left the capital.

But for the sanitation worker Zhang Zhen, even if the emperor left the capital, he still started to go out to sweep the neighbors he was responsible for before dawn every day.

Because sanitation workers like Zhang Zhen will be organized by officials of the Propaganda Department to study, Zhang Zhen knows that his responsibility is very important. The health of the capital has a lot to do with His Majesty's safety and the safety of His Majesty the Emperor.

As a result, Zhang Zhen began to have a strong sense of mission, which made him, who was already old and ineffective.

Older people care more about whether they are still useful to society.

Zhang Zhen is naturally no exception.

However, just the dawn of the next day after the emperor left the capital, Zhang Zhen just came out of the house and saw a bluestone brick suddenly moving and making a slight giggle.

The neighbors in this area were all his relatives and friends, so he easily entered the neighborhood house and hid it, secretly watching the loose bluestone slab.

Soon, Zhang Zhen saw the bluestone slab being moved away, revealing a hole, and a person's head appeared in the hole, and then a person came out.

Zhang Zhen also saw these people running into a private house opposite him with his own eyes.

For a moment, Zhang Zhen felt something was wrong, and took advantage of the inattention of these people and left Fang and went to the contact point of the Dongchang.

"It turns out that there is a hole in the ground, which is quite long, leading directly to the direction of the Huangji Palace! The head of the head seems to be right, damn it, someone is so bold that he dares to do such a thing under the nose of our Dongchang!"

Li Ruolian from the East Factory couldn't help but say to Sun Yunhe.

Sun Yunhe turned cold and said, "Catch all the people in the room into the imperial prison. Just use Wuxiang first, and then send someone to the tunnel to check. This official will immediately report to the factory supervisor! In addition, he will send someone to inform Xu Chenshi. He also has the right to lock the city first and then report it. The city must be locked down to avoid someone escaping!"

Sun Yunhe said that and got on the horse, then looked back at Zhang Zhen: "Old man, you have made great contributions!"

...

"Prince, please rest assured. According to your will, the first batch of concrete produced by the Engineering Academy was blocked underground around Damingyuan and the palace city. If anyone wants to dig tunnels, they cannot be dug through them. The emperors and ladies who stayed in Beijing should be fine. In addition, on the periphery of the concrete, I have arranged underground monitors according to your wishes. If someone really dares to dig tunnels, as long as they dig the imperial city roots, they will be discovered."

Zhu Youxiao was also asking Wang Chengen about the defense of the inner court.

Although he was not sure if someone dug tunnels into the palace in the Wanggong Factory in history, then stuffed explosives into the palace to blow up the emperor, and the clerks deliberately exaggerated them, and the strange disasters came from heaven, just in case, he would rather believe that they were not trusted, so he still made arrangements for digging tunnels to do his own.

Anyway, he is the emperor and he doesn't have enough money, even if he spends his time in vain, it's nothing.

Now, because Zhu Youxiao's time is close to the time of the Wang Gongchang explosion in history, he asked Wang Chengen, who was responsible for strengthening the defense project of the inner court, again.

After hearing Wang Chengen's report, Zhu Youxiao nodded: "It's fine."

However, at this moment, Wei Zhongxian hurriedly came: "Your Majesty! The East Factory discovered a major case!"

Soon, Zhu Youxiao learned that someone was digging for authenticity.
Chapter completed!
