Chapter 905: Chapter 905: The Explosives are Researched by the Tong Family Themselves_1 Chapter 905: Chapter 905: The Explosives are Researched by the Tong Family Themselves_1 Yang Wang’s words clearly implied that Tong Sanlang was no better than him, on the sa level as Cen Hong and Sun Junyan.
Comparing Cen Hong and Sun Junyan, those beasts, to Tong Sanlang, was truly an insult to Tong Sanlang.
Upon hearing Qiao Xiaomai’s words, Yang Wang’s face changed, “The tricycles and heated kang beds were invented by Scholar Tong?”
“Exactly, my husband is accomplished in literature, martial arts, and invention. He actually channels his thoughts into righteous causes, which is why things are getting better and better,” Qiao Xiaomai said, turning her gaze to Tong Sanlang, who was following behind Principal of the Valley Academy.
Tong Sanlang happened to lift his gaze towards her at that mont, their eyes eting briefly, and the corners of their mouths curved into smiles at the sa ti.
Yang Wang listened to this conversation, clenching his teeth in secret; Qiao Xiaomai had included him in her satire as well.
He had intended to praise Qiao Xiaomai and gain so rapport, but instead, he ca across a tough nut to crack.
Xiaomai’s temper was indeed becoming worse and worse.
However, her ability to make money was also getting more impressive.
Tricycles and heated kang beds were the inventions of Tong Sanlang?
Why weren’t they developed before, and yet they erged after his marriage to Qiao Xiaomai?
It was clear that the tricycles and heated kang beds were Qiao Xiaomai’s ideas!
Thinking this, Yang Wang deliberately changed the subject. Never mind arguing about wins and losses, he had co today for serious matters.
“Qiao, uh, Mrs. Tong,” Yang Wang said with an embarrassed smile, finding it awkward to address her as Miss Qiao had beco habitual, whereas the term “Mrs. Tong” felt unnatural.
“Could you describe to in detail what happened that day? Why did it explode?” he asked.
“I don’t know which cursed wretch deserved to be struck by lightning, to explode right where they stood, lower than beasts, that lowlife who buried gunpowder in the backyard of my ho…” Her face stern, she briefly described the events of that day.
When she finished speaking, the group had also co around to the destroyed boundary wall.
After hearing what had happened, Yang Wang nodded in understanding and asked, “How did the gunpowder get here? Are there any clues?”
“I don’t know,” Qiao Xiaomai shook her head.
Yang Wang then looked towards the Headmaster of the Valley Academy, “What about the teacher?”
“I’m also unaware. This gunpowder is a state secret; ordinary people haven’t even heard of it. Yet, now it appears in the backyard of Xiaomai’s ho, soone with ill-intent must be trying to fra Xiaomai and Sanlang,” the Headmaster conjectured, even though he lacked information.
He had watched the undercurrents between Qiao Xiaomai and Yang Wang and naturally sided with Qiao Xiaomai.
“Framing? I have no idea where the gunpowder is, and neither does Brother Crown Prince. Yet here it is—an odd situation, indeed, teacher,” said Yang Wang, standing by the gaping hole in the wall, staring into the pit as he spoke.
“It is odd. Xiaomai and Sanlang stay in Anping Village and seldom go out. Both are easygoing and rarely make enemies. Who would spend so much effort to fra them?” the Headmaster also expressed his puzzlent.
He understood the hidden ssage in Yang Wang’s words but chose not to respond.
Seeing this, Yang Wang smiled, “Teacher, why are you so sure this is a fra-up?”
“What do you an by that, Your Highness?” the Headmaster asked.
“Scholar Tong here is not just an ordinary villager. His great-grandfather was Prince Pingnan Gu Yu, who once contended for the throne with Grandpa Emperor. Maybe this gunpowder was sothing they developed themselves?”
Your Highness thinks too highly of our Tong Family. The recipe of gunpowder is top secret; how could my Tong Family know of it?” Yang Wang had barely finished when Tong Sanlang rebutted with a calm expression.
