The Return of the Demon

Ning Chen and his party returned to the Supervisory Department.

"Ning Chen, what are you looking at?"

Feng Qizhen and others tied up the horses and found that Ning Chen was staring at the horse-tying stone.

Chen Chong came over, looked at Ning Chen, and then looked at the horse-tying stone, "What are you looking at? Is this horse-tying stone a treasure?"

Ning Chen nodded and said excitedly: "It is indeed a treasure, a big treasure!"

When they heard that it was a treasure, everyone else gathered around.

But after looking at it for a long time, they couldn't figure out what it was.

"Isn't this just a broken stone?"

Feng Qizhen muttered.

Ning Chen looked at him, "Where did this stone come from?"

Feng Qizhen said: "Xishan, most of the stones used in the capital are transported from Xishan."

"Is Xishan far away?"

"Not far, if you work hard, you can go back and forth in one day."

Ning Chen smiled mysteriously, turned around and ran into the Supervisory Department.

Feng Qizhen and others looked at each other, and stared at the horse-tying stone for a long time, but still couldn't figure out what it was?

When they came back, they found Ning Chen was painting.

Feng Qi looked at it for a long time, "Ning Chen, what is this thing you are painting?"

"Good stuff, you will know when the time comes!"

Ning Chen continued to paint.

After a while, he put down the pen, looked at what he had painted, and nodded with satisfaction.

Then, Ning Chen put the finished painting in his arms, and asked, "Do you know where the best blacksmith shop in the city is?"

Feng Qi thought for a while and said, "Personally, Liu Ji Blacksmith Shop in the outer city is the best for making ironware... What weapons do you want to make? You can go to the Ministry of War, the best blacksmiths are in the Ministry of War."

Ning Chen thought for a while and said, "Let's go, take me to Liu Ji Blacksmith Shop first."

......

The two rode to Liu Ji Blacksmith Shop in the outer city.

The sound of ding-dong-dong ironwork was endless.

Seeing the two, a naked upper body, muscular man came up.

"Two officials, what do you need?"

Because Feng Qi was wearing a fish scale suit.

Ning Chen asked, "Are you the shopkeeper?"

The man hurriedly said, "My father is not here, so you can tell me if you have anything to say."

Ning Chen took out the blueprint and handed it to him, saying, "Look, can the things on it be made?"

The man took the blueprint. Although he couldn't understand what was on the blueprint, the things on it were not difficult to make.

"Sir, it can be made!"

Ning Chen looked happy and said, "Okay, help me make the things on it... How long will it take?"

"One day, you can come to pick it up at this time tomorrow!"

They are all small parts, which don't take too much time.

Ning Chen nodded, "Okay, then I'll come to pick it up tomorrow... By the way, what's your name?"

"I am Liu Tiehu."

Ning Chen's face suddenly became serious, and he said, "These things must be kept secret... If they are leaked out, the prison of the Supervisory Department will be your home in the future."

Liu Tiehu nodded in fear.

"Sir, don't worry, I promise that I will never leak it out."

Ning Chen hummed and threw two taels of silver to Liu Tiehu.

"Sir, this is unacceptable... How can I accept your money?"

Liu Tiehu had a sad face, feeling that the silver was a bit hot.

Last time, he helped a yamen runner to make an ironware and received a few coins of silver... As a result, a group of yamen runners came the next day and found a reason to fine him several taels of silver.

Ning Chen said: "Just keep it if I give it to you... Remember, make the things for me more delicately."

"Don't worry, sir, I will definitely make them carefully."

Ning Chen nodded, and then left with Feng Qizhen.

"Ning Chen, what are those things you made? It's so mysterious."

Ning Chen smiled and said: "Gun."

Feng Qizhen rolled his eyes, "Who are you fooling? Do you think I have never seen a long gun?"

"It's not the kind of gun you said... Forget it, I can't explain it to you for a while. By the way, when you go back, help me prepare some gunpowder, don't let others know."

There is gunpowder in this world, but it is used for fireworks and firecrackers.

When Ning Chen tied the horse, he found that the horse tie was actually flint.

So, he immediately thought of the flintlock gun.

As a former commander of the special forces, he knew firearms like the back of his hand.

The flintlock gun is a simple and easy-to-make gun, but it is not very powerful and is a single shot, so it is very troublesome to reload.

Feng Qizheng nodded. It was not difficult for the Supervisory Office to get some gunpowder, but he quickly reacted, "Are you not going back to the Supervisory Office?"

"I have something else to do, you go back first... Also, don't tell anyone about what happened today."

Feng Qizheng stared at him, "Are you going to the Jiaofang Office to find Miss Yudie? I can tell you that although His Majesty doesn't care about our pleasure, it is only limited to the night... If we go in broad daylight and are seen, we will definitely go to His Majesty to report us."

Ning Chen laughed and scolded: "Do you think I am made of iron? I was just too tired last night, I have to go home to catch up on my sleep."

"Animal... Poor Miss Yudie, I don't know what you have done to her?"

Feng Qizheng was heartbroken and beat his chest and stamped his feet. Thinking of Miss Yudie being pushed by this pig, he wanted to kill Ning Chen.

"It's none of your business, get lost..." Ning Chen yawned and rubbed his waist, "I can't be so indulgent anymore... The body of a 28-year-old beauty is as soft as butter, and she carries a sword on her waist to kill ordinary people. Although no one's head falls off, it will secretly make your bones dry."

Feng Qizheng bulged his eyes and was furious. "What are you showing off? Bah... Isn't it just writing poetry? My poor Miss Yudie was fooled by you."

Ning Chen rolled his eyes at him and got on the horse.

"Hey? What should I say if the boss asks?"

Ning Chen thought for a while and smiled, "Just say I went to investigate a case."

When they returned to the Jiaofang Division in the morning, they took Pan Yucheng's horse away... It would be strange if Pan Yucheng didn't get angry when he returned.

If they go back now, they will definitely be scolded by Pan Yucheng... Such a good thing will be given to Feng Qizheng and his friends.

Ning Chen rode back to Ning Mansion.

He asked the servants to prepare hot water and took a nice bath...I was sweating profusely last night and didn't have time to take a bath when I got up in the morning.

After taking a bath, Ning Chen really went to bed.

I was a little greedy last night and didn't go to bed until dawn. I slept for more than an hour and was really tired.

.......

In the palace, Emperor Xuan came to the imperial study after leaving the court.

As soon as he picked up the memorial, Nie Liang asked for an audience.

"Your Majesty, Ning Chen went to the Jiaofangsi last night and did not return all night."

Emperor Xuan's face darkened and he put down the memorial.

"He just got out of prison and went to a place like the Jiaofangsi... He started to pursue women at a young age and did not learn anything good. It must be those bastards in the Supervisory Department who led him astray."

Nie Liang lowered his head, feeling a little sympathetic to Ning Chen's colleagues... If Ning Chen didn't want to go, they couldn't tie Ning Chen up, right?

Your Majesty favors Ning Chen too much.

"What did he do in the Jiaofangsi?"

This? ? ?

Nie Liang was a little confused. What else could he do in the Jiaofangsi?

But His Majesty asked, he dared not answer.

"Your Majesty, Ning Chen went to the Jiaofangsi, wrote two poems, and then went to Miss Yudie's room. He came out in the morning... After returning to the Supervisory Department, he stayed there for a while, then went to the outer city, and then went home."
