Yin Mo smiled and shook his head.

"I heard from Yang Yun of Shu Palace that the brocade woven in Chengdu is slightly different depending on the sales location. I really want to know what the difference is. If I can figure this out, it may be useful." Cao Miao stroked the smooth brocade. "I want to collect as many samples as possible, as evidence, and send them to Chengdu for identification through Yang Yun's hand, and piece together some clues."

Cao Miao explained his plan in detail, which is the so-called black box test. Through continuous attempts, he tried to find out the secrets of Shu Jin. According to what Yang Yun said, there were actually not many secrets of Shu Jin, and he should not be guessed.

Yin Mo was stunned when he heard this, and was so impressed that he looked at Cao Miao. His eyes changed. As expected, madmen are all geniuses. Cao Miao could come up with such a way, which was eye-opening. He was very excited when he thought it would be more convenient to search Shu Jin in the future.

"Prince is smart, no wonder you can see through Wu Gou's reality at first sight. This method is such a genius."

"Don't rush to praise me. I urgently need various samples now. If you can provide me with more samples, I will be happy."

"No problem, I'll cover it with me." Yin Mo patted his chest and decided to take out one of the Shu brocades he had embezzled and gave it to Cao Miao.

"By the way, there is a ready-made opportunity. Zhong Tai will go to Bu City to pick up the goods tomorrow. I hope you can intercept him and rob him of what he bought and what he currently has at home." Cao Miao smiled. "Take it as a sample."

"This is too simple." There is a new target. Yin Mo smiled and his chest was almost swollen. He had checked Zhong Tai before, but because there was no definite evidence, the emperor had to issue an edict to stop the investigation under the pressure of officials. If evidence of his affair with Shu Han could be found from Zhong Tai's house, the case would be reason to continue investigating.

The two discussed the action plan and left each. Yin Mo left first through the back door, Cao Miao stopped for a while, and waited for the shop owner Lao Liu to get the customized things. There were not many things, except for the two short knives used by Qingtao, and after a few flying claws, they were only a few iron finger buckles.

There is no problem with short knife and flying claws, but Cao Miao is not very satisfied with the iron finger buckle. Perhaps because of the complex shape, Lao Liu chose to cast instead of forging like iron claws. The casting is relatively brittle, and it may break when hitting hard objects and hurt your fingers.

But Cao Miao didn't say anything. He and Yin Mo just used each other and would not tell Yin Mo's subordinates about their real skills.

"Is there anyone in Jinshi who can fight the muscle armor of the Western Regions?" Cao Miao told Lao Liu with gesture.

He wanted to create muscle armor for the four Si Caiying, which was the kind worn by Wonder Woman. It had no special meaning, it was purely personal aesthetics. It would be a pity for Ji Ji to not show off her good figure. Others would be embarrassed to use such things, but he didn't care. He was a madman, and the more extraordinary he looked like him.

Old Liu shook his head repeatedly. He had never seen such armor before, and he didn't know who would build such armor. However, he promised to inquire about Cao Miao and notify Cao Miao as soon as there was any news.

Cao Miao thanked her and asked Qingtao to give her money, left Jinshi and went to Mashi.

Zhang Wei sent a message that he had already made stirrups and horseshoes and tried them. The effect was very good. Cao Miao asked him to go to the horse market when he had time. The stirrups were okay, so he could install them by himself. The horseshoes were a bit troublesome and needed craftsmen familiar with the horses to operate.

Cao Miao arrived in Ma City at the agreed time and met Zhang Wei and Zhang Meng who were waiting here.

Ahu, Zhishu, Ruhua and three others led their mounts to play the horseshoe. Qingtao and Zhang Meng were whispering, while Cao Miao sat in a corner and listened to Zhang Wei's report on the situation.

"According to the prince's request, we robbed the stern car (prison car) halfway. Cang Ji was scared to death and peed on the spot." Zhang Wei was not too anxious and said the whole process. "However, I heard a news the day before yesterday that Cang Wu was dead."

Cao Miao was stunned. "Cangwu was dead? How did he die?"

Zhang Wei smiled silently. "It is said that it was suicide, but in fact someone silenced him. It is too simple to kill someone in prison."

"Are there any suspect targets?"

"It may be related to Wang Ji. Someone saw his entourage going to Tingwei Prison, but there was no definite evidence."

Cao Miao smacked his lips, with a little big head.

Cang Wu was imprisoned in Tingwei Prison, and it was too easy for the other party to kill and silence him. If he didn't think of some solutions, Cang Ji would probably not live long, let alone get his confession. But he couldn't think of any solution for a while. His father and son had neither official positions nor allies, and he could not find anyone to help. Zhang Wei and others had too low status, so they could not reach those officials, and they could not use their strength.

"This is a matter of time, and I'll talk about it later. You can pick a few people tomorrow and go with me."

"Okay." Zhang Wei didn't ask and agreed lightly, just like Cao Miao asked him to drink.

"Ask you something."

"Prince, please say."

"Listen to Qingtao, your martial arts are passed down by Dinghou (Zhang Xiu)."

"I have received guidance from Ding Hou, but I can't say I'm personally circulating it. Only the Marquis of Xuanwei (Zhang Quan) who received Ding Hou's personal quotation. If Xuanwei Hou dies, Ding Hou's martial arts will be lost."

Cao Miao nodded. "If you have time, you can teach Qingtao."

"This is natural." Zhang Wei thought about it, hesitated, and wanted to speak but stopped. Seeing this, Cao Miao smiled and said, "What do you want to say?"

"There is something that may be a bit presumptuous."

"explain."

"Recently rumored in the capital that the emperor may use the king. Is this true?"

Facing this former subordinate, Cao Miao did not hide it. "It is possible, but it is only possible. It is hard to say whether it can be achieved in the end."

"If the king returns to command troops, he must need a personal guard. Is there anyone who chooses the prince?"

Cao Miao laughed and reached out to pat Zhang Wei on the back. "Xiaoru, isn't this the responsibility of your subordinate? Why do you ask me instead? You won't count on Lao Song, Lao Bai and the others? The guards in the mansion cannot count on him. The only ones who can take the big responsibility are you and Han Long. You have to work harder."

Zhang Wei's eyes flashed, he stared at Cao Miao for a while, and laughed silently. "Thank you for your trust, I'll pay attention. If there is a suitable candidate, please ask the prince to review it."

"Well, look for an opportunity. You can go to the mansion and get some money. Recruiting soldiers and horses, you won't be able to get money."

"When I go to the mansion, will it attract too much attention?"

"It's okay, I'll handle the school affairs. Just don't be too arrogant. You hide too tightly, but it will make people suspicious. It's better to show it in the dark." Cao Miao said lightly: "So many powerful families who don't even have official titles have hundreds of troops. Can't I have a few guards in my dignified Yongqiu Palace? My uncle really wants to come to me, and I happened to ask him in person how he was the Sili School Captain."
