Crown Prince of the Empire, I quit!

After hearing what he said, everyone nodded.

They naturally thought this was a good idea.

Although they had to pay a portion of their properties to the imperial court, by comparison, if they could enter Shenmu City, it would be more stable.

The benefits to be gained at that time will be extremely huge. After all, the person behind the strategy is Hua Yunhong. So after thinking about this, everyone started to raise their glasses and drink with Hua Yunhong.

They agreed to this request.

Seeing how obedient they were, Hua Yunhong nodded with satisfaction.

Just when he was in a good mood, a few of his men suddenly ran up to him and said to him:

"Your Majesty, we seem to have encountered some minor problems here. The people of Daqian have actually transported a batch of gunpowder into our territory!"

When hearing these words, Hua Yunhong, who was still immersed in joy, suddenly felt a huge pressure in his heart, causing him to put down the cup in his hand.

"You mean they suddenly sent in a shipment of gunpowder?"

When hearing the news, Hua Yunhong was a little hesitant.

To be honest, at this stage, he still didn't know what the other person was here for.

The last time Qin Ming asked for help, Hua Yunhong also directly and actively expressed his willingness to help Qin Ming.

Now he is sending in gunpowder. Is this a direct betrayal?

What the Shenmu Kingdom needs is not just to obtain Daqian’s technology, but more importantly, to use Daqian’s technology to enable itself to develop.

But it takes time.

But there is constant friction between the two sides.

It is very likely that a huge gap will be created between them and Daqian.

"How many were delivered?"

"I don't know about that. Commander Du is arranging people to investigate."

Qin Ming sent in gunpowder, which was a hidden danger to the entire Shenmu Kingdom. No matter which force got these gunpowder, they had to use them.

It's impossible that it got moldy in their warehouse.

So where it is used is important.

After thinking for a moment, Hua Yunhong couldn't imagine that they would use it on other people.

At most, they will all be used within the territory of Shenmu Kingdom to fight against themselves.

Since this is the case, the use of gunpowder must be curbed.

After figuring out everything, Hua Yunhong gave the order directly.

"Let everyone thoroughly search the territory for gunpowder and not allow them to take out any of it."

As soon as he finished speaking, his men nodded immediately.

"Gunpowder is still quite troublesome for us, and it must not be leaked out, otherwise the impact on them will be huge."

"If possible, we must cut off their transportation channels, even if these transportation channels belong to Tongbao Pavilion."

After saying this, everyone around nodded slowly.

At this time, Hua Yunhong spoke in front of everyone, and that was why many people from the big families present were moved.

They had actually heard about it a long time before they came.

Hua Yunhong is likely to eliminate Tongbao Pavilion after consolidating his throne.

A lot of the kingdom's silver is concentrated in the hands of a foreign force.

This is not a good thing for any emperor with ambitions and ideals.

If he gets the chance, he will definitely take action against him.

As for Qin Ming, whether he can consolidate the position of Tongbao Pavilion in the Shenmu Kingdom.

It's his own business.

In fact, some generals in the court also thought that it was possible to investigate the gunpowder.

Because this kind of thing is very important to them.

Once any problem occurs, it may cause them huge trouble later.

Since the war with Daqian began, many people realized that the lethality of gunpowder exceeded their expectations.

After taking a deep breath, everyone put this matter on the agenda.

Hua Yunhong did not arrange too many things for the generals in his own court at the moment.

Instead, he went to various cities by himself.

Especially search in major cities.

To prevent them from taking out some gunpowder without investigation.

As Hua Yunhong's movements gradually increased.

In addition to Shenmu City, other places also received the news and began to take action.

The first major force they targeted for investigation was Tongbao Pavilion.

That night, a piece of news quickly reached Chu Ying.

Chu Ying himself didn't expect to receive this news.

"Boss Chu, we've found some issues. It seems that many people from big families here have chosen to help Hua Yunhong."

The moment they heard these words, many people around widened their eyes.

Sun Jinshan said angrily:

"Why? These guys are such a disappointment!"

He was very dissatisfied with the reactions of these people, who actually turned against him at this time.

Even if we don't help, at least we can give a result where neither side helps the other.

But it is not the case for them.

These people, to whom Sun Jinshan had given a lot of benefits before, also earned tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of taels of silver from Brother Tongbao.

They ate up such a huge amount of money, but the faces of these big families changed quickly.

There is no logic at all.

Even before Brother Tongbao fell, they were already like this.

At this time, Sun Jinshan didn't dare to think about it. If Chu Ying and Tongbao Pavilion fell, how rampant the other party would become?

Looking at his indignant look, Chu Ying did not feel too angry. He said calmly:

"After all, they are locals, so there is nothing wrong with them doing this."

"If we don't help Hua Yunhong, many new technologies will not be able to enter. It's equivalent to helping us make money. Many big families should be thinking about getting the technology. This is like giving a man a fish and then giving him a fish. It's better to teach him how to fish."

After hearing what the other party said, Sun Jinshan could only shrug his shoulders.

He naturally understood that the reason why he scolded them was simply because he couldn't get over the hurdle in his heart.

"I spent millions of taels of silver to raise a group of wolf cubs."

He spat, calmed down, and continued to ask:

"If that's the case, then it's really hard to deal with. What should we do?"

"There's nothing much to say, just do it."

Chu Ying didn't have much room to retreat at this time.

Tongbao Pavilion is his hard work, and it is also a huge force that Qin Ming has spent a huge amount of money to finally support.

Until now.

They are still spending tens of thousands of silver coins to expand their territory throughout the Shenmu Kingdom.

So you absolutely cannot fall at this time.

The other side now realized that it was difficult to escort the generals on their side, so they directly focused on Tongbao Pavilion.

It is just to divert Qin Ming's attention.
