The last three kingdoms

Chapter 44 Vulnerability
The silver seal and green ribbon are usually the symbol of high-ranking officials. People often use two thousand stones to describe the rich and powerful.The lowest rank of the silver seal and green ribbon is also more than two thousand stones, and the arsenal order is only an official of six hundred stones, how can it be compared with it?
Since the two thousand stones are high-ranking officials, it is destined that the number will not be too many. In the lieutenant's mansion, there are only three people who are qualified to wear silver seals and green ribbons. Lieutenant Cheng is an official who is more than two thousand stones. According to the status and status of Zhi Jinwu, it is impossible to come here. The only possible one is Lieutenant Youcheng who is in charge of internal security.

Lieutenant Shi Cheng personally came to investigate the case?
Xing Kuling felt his scalp tingle in an instant, and vaguely felt that this matter was no small matter, and it must be a major and important case to be heard by Labor Lieutenant You Cheng in person. , and even spread the disaster to the three clans.

Xing Kuling immediately stepped forward, cupped his hands and bowed to Liu Yin: "Xing Ping, the next official, sees Lord You Cheng."

Liu Yin didn't know this arsenal decree, and he hadn't notified his name yet. This guy had already guessed his identity, and he seemed to be an old stick in the officialdom.Liu Yin just nodded lightly, as a return of courtesy, and said: "I was ordered by the emperor to investigate the Qingcheng Mountain assassination case, and it has been found that the knife used by the assassin came from your arsenal. I hope Xing Kuling can assist me in the investigation. after all."

Xing Ping heard the words like five thunderbolts, the weapon used to assassinate the emperor came from his own warehouse, my God, this is worth it!Once this charge is confirmed, whether it is intentional or unintentional, it will be a capital offense!
"This... Lord You Cheng made a mistake, right? Our... our warehouse has always been strictly managed, and there has never been any incident of loss. How did these knives fall into the hands of assassins?" Xing Ping's face was pale. Did these knives come from him? Here, he is not sure at all, he has no idea how many knives are in the warehouse, but subjectively hopes that Liu Yin made a mistake, after all, the knives used everywhere are the same, how can Liu Yin determine that these knives are feathers? Lin Jun arsenal.

Liu Yin glanced at it, Xing Ping is completely the kind of old bureaucrat who follows the rules and promises, he really lent him ten guts, and he may not dare to collude with the assassins to sell ordnance, but these knives were stolen by the assassins, or there are some in the arsenal. It is always necessary to investigate carefully to find out who is sold by individual people with their own pockets.

"Xing Kuling, since I can find out here, I will never talk nonsense. I don't think I need to repeat the seriousness of this assassination case to Xing Kuling. Your only chance now is to cooperate with this officer. Maybe it's not too late to find out."

"No! No! No!" Wiping the cold sweat off his brow, Xing Ping ordered the officials beside him, "Quick—quickly go and get all the account books!"

The officials also trotted all the way to move the account book.Xing Ping invited Liu Yin and his party to his signing room, and wanted to order his subordinates to serve Liu Yin tea, but Liu Yin flatly raised his hand and refused.

Soon, all the account books in the arsenal were moved to the signing room, and several people, including the master bookkeeper and subordinate staff in charge of the account books, were summoned to the front of the hall.

Liu Yin looked at the mountain of account books in front of him. If he really checked carefully, he might not be able to finish it even if he checked it for three days and three nights, so he ordered: "I don't need to check anything else for the time being. What about the whereabouts of the batch of knives shipped from the third workshop?"

Several master and subordinate staff frantically rummaged through the account books.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Liu Yin asked: "Xing Kuling, has there been any theft in your treasury in the past two months?"

Xing Ping immediately denied it: "The warehouse is heavily guarded, and there has never been a single theft in the past year."

Since there is no possibility of theft, the insiders are suspected of stealing.Soon, the account book about the knives brought by the third workshop was handed over to Liu Yin. After checking among several account books, Liu Yin soon found a loophole.

In the twelfth lunar month of last year, the Habayashi Army’s arsenal shipped a total of 72 and 170 knives from the third workshop, and distributed 170 to the Habayashi Army for replacement. According to the principle of exchanging old for new, the Habayashi Army should hand in 130 damaged knives, but According to the book, only 35 five old knives were recovered, and another [-] were missing.

Liu Yin saw the signature of the account handler: Huang Ran.

"Where is the yellow dye?"

Xing Ping hurriedly said: "Huang Ran is the arsenal prime minister of the library, and he is responsible for all the accounts and transactions. Today just happened to be on leave."

"Then what is Xing Kuling's explanation for the disappearance of these 35 old knives?" Liu Yin asked coldly.

Xing Ping was tongue-tied, he didn't know about this matter at all, so how could he explain it to Liu Yin, but as an arsenal commander, he couldn't make a deal if he didn't know anything about it.Xing Ping's forehead was densely covered with beads of sweat.

"This... is specifically handled by Huang Kucheng. Your lord can send him to check, but as far as I know, after the weapons of the Habayashi Army are damaged, some of them may not be able to return the old weapons, so the recovered old knives are better than matching. It is common to issue fewer new knives.”

"Usually?" Liu Yin smiled coldly, "No more, no less, there is a total difference of 35. I'm afraid it's not a coincidence?"

In Liu Yin's mind, there was already a calculation. The Habayashi Army's arsenal was actually short of 35 knives, which was exactly the same as the number of knives confiscated at the scene of Qingcheng Mountain. No matter how coincidental things are in the world, it would not be such a coincidence, and it can be concluded that These knives came from the Habayashi Army's arsenal. Obviously, Huang Ran has a serious suspicion.

"Where is Huang Ran now?" Liu Yin asked.

Xing Ping's face turned pale. Once it was found out that these knives came from the Habayashi Army's arsenal, regardless of whether it was related to him or not, the crime would have been confirmed, this damn Huang Ran!Xing Ping cursed secretly.On weekdays, this Huang Ran is both humble and diligent, rushing to do all the things outside his duty, which really relieves Xing Ping, but now it seems that this heart can't be saved in vain!

"Huang Ran's home is in Qilizhuang, in the eastern suburbs of Chengdu. He was already sick yesterday, but I don't know if he is still at home?" Xing Ping immediately told him, and at the same time secretly prayed in his heart that Huang Ran would be caught, otherwise Even if he himself jumped into the Yellow River, he couldn't clean himself up.

Liu Yin turned his head and said to Zhang Le: "Captain Zhang, you should immediately take someone to Qilizhuang to arrest Huang Ran and bring him to justice." Liu Yin didn't know if Huang Ran had heard any rumors that he would ask for leave at this time, so he had to act decisively If he is allowed to abscond in fear of crime, the clues he has finally found will be broken.
