The old masters did not know what happened. They quickly put down their tools and turned around with a shocked expression.
Li Meng brought his men from the Ministry of Official Personnel Affairs. Every forger in the house was rounded up and kept in a corner.
More than 20 workers were caught.
Li Meng looked on with excitement. There were long swords and metal everywhere. The worker seemed to be loading a cart, about to send these weapons somewhere.
These were solid evidence!
Just like what Madam Su had mentioned, even if Helian Wei Wei had the Third Prince’s support, he would not dare to say anything.
How would someone like the Third Prince be willing to bear a crime for the sake of Helian Wei Wei?
He would definitely stay out of this matter.
As long as the Third Prince was not involved, what concern did he still has?
“Jail them all!” Li Meng commanded his men proudly, restraining the old masters. Then, he brought another batch of guards into the inner court, searched out all the weapons and piled them up in the garden. In awhile, they stacked up into a small mountain.
It convinced him even further the fact that he had caught Helian Wei Wei’s tail.
They found so many weapons in just one room. If they searched the rest of the rooms at the back, they would probably find many more.
Li Meng silently thought in his heart, what is this if they aren’t used to planning a rebellion?
He hummed and threw the sword he held back into the pile. “Take them all!” he ordered with contempt.
Li Meng and his men searched the entire backyard. They were getting louder and louder as they approached the court where the Little Seventh Prince was in.
Little Bald Head was training very seriously. When he saw the soldiers rushing in, his big tiger eyes squinted into a line, observing the danger he had never seen before.
Li Meng was only a small officer, so he did not know the Little Seventh Prince.
Even Su Yan Mo had only got a glimpse of Little Bald Head’s back.
Everyone knew that the Retired Emperor loved two of his grandsons the most.
The elder one was the Third Prince, the younger one was Seventh, which was a difficult kid.
In Nangong Lie words, he was a little tiger, biting whoever he caught!
No matter in the palace or outside, no one dared to provoke the little devil.
Unlike him, the Third Prince had already taken charge of some things in the palace. He had to consider the Retired Emperor’s interest before doing anything.
But the Little Seventh Prince would bite anyone who provoked him to death. After the fact, the Retired Emperor could not bear to punish his young grandson, so he would only be punished to stand facing a wall and reflect on his mistakes.
And every punishment would cause his revenge to become even bloodier.
All the powerful officers, like Helian Guang Yao or even Prime Minister Su, dared not enrage him.
Li Meng did not know all this. He looked at the little one’s dirty robe and bald head, assuming that he was a poor child of some master, so he did not take Little Seven seriously.
But Little Seven was a royalty, after all. His nobility was immediately apparent in a case like this, “Who allowed you to come in? Get out!”
It was a few simple words, but it was awfully intimidating.
Li Meng took a look at Little Seven, and disdainfully said, “Village peasant, out of my way!”
As he was talking, he stretched out his hand to push the boy away.
Master Wang who stood beside did not know who exactly Little Seven was. But seeing that he was brought here by the princess consort, he must be a precious boy. On top of that, the masters really did like Little Seven. So, they stood in front of Little Seven, calmly confronting Li Meng, “Officer, sir, please talk nicely. How could you snatch our things immediately after coming in?”
Li Meng chided, “You know clearly what you are doing! Mass producing weapons? This is a crime! If you know your place, get out of my way, or I will kill you now!”
Master Wang’s face turned pale, he hugged Little Seven and stood aside.
He was sincerely afraid that a blade might harm the princess consort’s guest.
Working in Wei Ze World for so many days, he had met countless officers, but none of them were like this one, infuriating to the point where he had no words to describe.
Little Seven’s small face was completely sunken. He lowered his head and seemed to be deep in thought.
The masters were all guarding Little Seven, not allowing the guards to touch the child.
Now, they only hoped that they would be fine, for they could start over again as long as they were safe and sound.
The princess consort was still discussing something in the backyard. Someone had already been sent to inform her.
They believed that once the princess consort arrived, it would be the end of these people!
“Sir, we found a cave in the backyard. It seems like a warehouse for their weapons. Should we head over...”
Li Meng was excited when he heard that, and he turned around to walk over.
Master Wang remembered that the princess consort had commanded that no one could enter the cave behind, so he struggled to stop Li Meng by standing before him.
Li Meng kicked Master Wang to the ground and snatched away the forging tool in his hand before throwing it on the floor. Then, he yelled fiercely, “How dare you block me, huh? You want to profit from a loophole? Dream on! I don’t care who is with you or how powerful they are, I will arrest them! You have provoked somebody you shouldn’t have provoked by making these weapons!”
“I am curious, who is this person that I shouldn’t have provoked?!”
In the racket, Helian Wei Wei slowly emerged from the backyard. Her eyes were filled with chilling cold, her sleeves floating in the air as her eyes scanned around her.
Pieces of metals were thrown all around, while Master Wang was covering his stomach.
There was also Little Seven, with two red, angry, tiger eyes, and tightened, cracking fists.
When he was retreating just now, Little Seven got some dirt on himself. A handsome little boy was now looking slightly battered.
Helian Wei Wei’s expression became solemn immediately. She inhaled deeply, suppressing the anger within her, but her eyes had never been this cold.
Da Xiong of the hidden army stood right beside Helian Wei Wei. Now that his master’s courtyard had been wrecked by others, his eyes were suddenly opened wide. He leaned close to Helian Wei Wei’s ear and said, “Master, let me return and lead our brothers here. Then, we will beat these fools to death!”
“No need,” Helian Wei Wei’s lips curved upward, her entire body was filled with a murderous aura, “If they could even go through pains to find this well-hidden place, it’s obvious that someone wants to get rid of me. I don’t think a fifth-grade personnel officer would have such courage! There must be a supporter behind him. Heh, How dare they bully my men in my place. Don’t they want to wreak havoc? Then, let it be a huge one. I want to bring out every single one of them. Let them search!”
