The jailer quickly responded, "You're right, young master. We'll make sure to improve."
Chu Tang didn't say anything more and called Chen Yi and Chen Er to return to the military camp. "General Chen, what did the interrogation reveal?"
General Chen looked extremely grim. "They were precisely the officials in charge of the military supplies inspection. They colluded to replace the arrows with firewood in the storeroom. Those arrows were never even brought into the camp."
Chu Tang asked, "How were the arrows stolen, was anything revealed from the questioning?"
General Chen shook his head, "The officials didn't know. They were only responsible for the bait-and-switch. The actual theft was carried out by others."
Chu Tang was silent for a moment, then said, "General Chen, I have some bad news. The mastermind behind all this is the Second Prince. He has sold all the stolen arrows, and the buyers are shrouded in mystery, impossible to track down."
