Su Mingyu furrowed her brows the moment Wei Zongan identified the madman as Sun Qian. She had sent the Brocade Guard to Ancheng to investigate this Sun Qian, and it was true that his uncle had passed away not long ago. However, shortly after attending the funeral, Sun Qian had vanished without a trace. Su Mingyu had once suspected that Sun Qian might be the assassin, but her agents' findings matched exactly what Cheng Jinrui had reported: Sun Qian was a man of rigid character, impossible to sway once his mind was set, and the only thing he cared about in this life was the development of firearms. More importantly, he possessed no martial arts skills whatsoever.
Why, then, would Sun Qian appear in Wei Zongan’s mansion? What connection could he possibly have to the assassin? Su Mingyu was utterly baffled. Even more frustratingly, if this man truly was Sun Qian and not the actual assassin from that day, wouldn't the elaborate trap they had laid be rendered completely useless?
Emperor Chen remained silent for a long moment before turning to Eunuch Miao. "Is this man truly an artisan from the Ministry of Works?"
