Chapter 72 Where does Ning Fan’s confidence come from?

Yuwang City.

Imperial Palace.

After Emperor Yu received the exact news from Chen Mansion, he dismissed everyone in the hall and sat quietly in front of the dragon case with a deep expression.

Now that the branch of the Chen family has been destroyed, I am afraid that Shuzhou will stir up trouble again!

But he is more curious about where Ning Fan got the confidence from!

Why dare to attack the Chen family at this time!

"Your Majesty!"

Jiannan bowed respectfully, took out a secret document from his arms, and handed it to Emperor Yu: "There is news from Jiangnan."

"The night before yesterday, there was a riot in the three private military workshops of the Chen family, and the cast iron technology was suspected to be stolen!"

"I also found out that during this period of time, the iron smelting masters and craftsmen of the Chen family disappeared one after another, as if they had evaporated from the world, and there was no news at all!"

"In the past two days, Shuzhou has been in turmoil, but the person behind the scenes has not been found at all. Our people were almost affected!"

As soon as Jiannan finished speaking, Emperor Yu showed a deep surprise on his face. "Over the years, the Chen family has been extremely strict in blocking the technology of iron smelting, and you have failed repeatedly!"

"I can tolerate them for so many years because only the Chen family can make the most advanced weapons of Dayu!"

"Otherwise, how can I tolerate him?"

"I didn't expect that someone could succeed!"

Emperor Yu's face was extremely deep, and he said in a serious voice: "This is not good news. Who did it? Have you found out?"

"Reporting to your majesty, I haven't found any clues!"

"Could it be Dayan?"

"Your Majesty, this is not Dayan's doing. In the past two days, not only our people have been investigating this matter, but Dayan's Yanlong Guard, Li's Phoenix Terrace, and even the Manshen Temple of the ancient Nanman country are also investigating it secretly!"

"Interesting!"

There was a deep light in Emperor Yu's eyes, and he said lightly: "Send more people, at all costs, get the Chen family's iron smelting technology, and those Chen family craftsmen, and we must do our best to investigate!"

"If these technologies can fall into our hands, the Chen family will have no need to exist!"

"Yes!"

"And..." Emperor Yu's face showed a grim expression. Cold murderous intent: "Those fleas that jump out of the dark, all must be crushed to death. Over the years, the south and the west have been constantly infiltrating us. If we don't teach them a lesson, they will become more and more unscrupulous!"

"Jiannan, from now on, expand the establishment of the secret guards, and all expenses will be allocated from my treasury!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Jiannan respectfully withdrew, and Wei Ying happened to walk in with small steps, respectfully reporting: "Your Majesty, His Royal Highness Xuanyong King wants to see you!"

"Humph, let this rebellious son in!"

"Yes!"

"Your son pays homage to the emperor!"

Ning Fan strode into the hall, bowed respectfully, and stood quietly in front of the emperor.

Emperor Yu slowly stood up, staring straight at Ning Fan, and walked forward step by step.

"Did you enjoy the house search?"

"Fine!"

"Tell me, what evidence did you get from the Chen family this time?" Emperor Yu showed a playful look on his face: "It actually made you want to kill without regard for the consequences!"

"Reporting to my father, Chen Rui of the Chen family colluded with the Blood Evil Pavilion to assassinate the current prince!"

"You mean, it was the Chen family who did it to you?"

"Yes!"

"Do you have any evidence?"

"There are both witnesses and evidence!" Ning Fan's face was filled with confidence: "The assassins who assassinated my son that night were not all killed, but one was left alive!"

"The Blood Evil Pavilion sent another ten assassins, who were caught in the act in my house. Now they are being interrogated!"

"Yes!"

Emperor Yu's face was surprisingly calm. He stopped three steps in front of Ning Fan and suddenly looked at him. His face was moved: "Did your people also steal the Chen family's military equipment?"

"Hehe, father is wise!"

Looking at Ning Fan's sly smile, Emperor Yu was stunned, "Is it really you?"

"Father, before I came to see you, I went to the Military Equipment Bureau first, and the iron smelting technology of the Chen family has been sent over!"

"And the craftsmen abducted from the Chen family will arrive in Beijing soon!"

"Father, I have found many spies from the enemy country. Now my Jinyiwei Jiangnan Guard is arresting them. I believe that it won't be long before there will be good news!"

Listening to Ning Fan's remarks, Emperor Yu's face was full of deep shock. He was just trying unintentionally, but he didn't expect that behind all this, it was really the Jinyiwei who did it!

Have the Jinyiwei been so scary?

Even the secret guards can't find any clues!

"Come here!"

Emperor Yu shouted directly, and Jing Li strode in.

"Your Majesty!"

"Send someone to the Military Equipment Bureau to ask if King Xuanyong has been there just now and what he has sent!"

"Yes!"

As soon as Emperor Yu returned to the dragon case, he heard Wei Ying report: "Your Majesty, the Chief of the Military Equipment Bureau, Lord Ling Hao, wants to see you!"

"Hmm?" Emperor Yu was slightly surprised, and Jing Li, who was about to leave, also stopped, "Go, let him in!"

"Let the Military Equipment Bureau Ling Hao come to see you!"

As soon as the voice fell, a man with a straight figure and a dark face strode in, with a look of joy that could not be concealed.

"I have just tried to forge fine iron!"

"In three days at most, we can forge weapons exactly the same as those of the Chen family!"

Emperor Yu's eyes fell on Ning Fan who was standing aside, and the joy on his face could no longer be concealed!

Ning Fan could naturally understand Emperor Yu's mood at this time. Dayu's top iron smelting technology and weapon forging methods were all in the hands of the Chen family. The weapons forged by the court and those forged by the Chen family were more than one level apart!

Over the years, the court has repeatedly tolerated the Chen family because of the Chen family's superb forging technology and the technical blockade of the court!

When the previous emperor was in power, he hinted to the Chen family to hand over the iron smelting technology, but the Chen family repeatedly shirked and even openly challenged the court, cutting off the supply of weapons to Dayu and almost cutting off Dayu's military equipment logistics!

After Emperor Yu ascended the throne, he sent many secret guards to steal the Chen family's iron smelting technology, but each time they returned empty-handed, and even suffered heavy casualties!

Unexpectedly, the Military Equipment Supervisor has now gotten rid of the Chen family and forged fine iron on its own!

"How sure are you?"

Emperor Yu took a deep breath and stared straight at Ling Hao, who patted his chest and guaranteed: "Your Majesty, I am willing to guarantee it with my head!"

"Good!"

Emperor Yu laughed and said loudly: "The Military Equipment Supervisor has made great contributions this time. After the excellent weapons are forged, if what you said is true, I will definitely reward you handsomely!"

Ling Hao glanced at Ning Fan and said: "Your Majesty, the smelting methods of these fine irons and the forging methods of weapons are all given by His Royal Highness King Xuanyong. I dare not take this great credit!"

"Yes!" Emperor Yu smiled and nodded: "I know, King Xuanyong has made contributions, and Ling Aiqing and the Military Equipment Supervisor have also made contributions!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

After Ling Hao resigned, Emperor Yu looked at Ning Fan and the smile on his face instantly subsided: "Tell me, what are your plans for the future?"
