Chapter 155 My sister is a concubine(1/2)
There were "signal flares" in the Ming Dynasty. This object was similar to the thunder fireworks, which were used for night marching and combat communication.
This kind of "signal flare" can not only help the enemy and us identify at night and in the mountains, and unify combat command, but also have the effect of confusing the enemy.
During the battle to aid Korea, Ma Gui ordered the ambush troops in the mountains to send out signal flares. As a result, the Japanese army mistakenly thought that a large army of the Ming army was lying around and retreated in a hurry.
What Song Jiangjian took out was the signal flare used in the army, called the smoke generator.
This object is made of a bamboo tube, with a plug of salt fire inside. When using it, just unscrew the bottom end cover and ignite the lead.
With a "swoosh", a fire light soared into the sky. With a sharp stern sound, a stream of blue smoke came out of the barrel and rose from the window.
Liangchen looked at it and found that within 500 meters, there was no blockage and it was easy to see the blue smoke floating into the sky.
If it is on a plain or in a quiet night, the effect of this object will be several times larger. It is most effective for military contacts in the era of cold weapons.
From this we infer that the young master's support should be within two miles of radius, otherwise, the person named Song Jiangjian would not even be able to call someone even if he sends a signal.
Pedestrians and brothels on both sides of the street were alarmed by the stern sound. Many people looked over and thought that some naughty boy had lit the fireworks.
"It's OK."
Song Jiangjian threw the diabolic tube outside the window, put the Japanese knife on the table, picked up the wine pot and poured it, then clapped his hands and said to the young master: "You are just looking for trouble. If you really want to leave, who can stop this building?"
The young master shook his head and said, "You must be responsible in life. The mother said it clearly. If we leave, there will be trouble in this building. I have always been a person who dares to act and act. When did you see me get into trouble and leave?"
Song Jiangjian sneered: "You don't have to leave, that's because no one dares to cause trouble for you."
The young master glared at him: "You say that, it seems like I am a bullying person with power?... Today, it is clearly that Mr. Liu bullying others with power, but it is not me."
"I didn't say that, but the facts seem to be the same. As for Mr. Liu, his father has disciplined him, so what should you worry about. I'll explain it to you clearly. It's not good for you if the noise is too big."
"I know."
The young master nodded, stopped talking, as if he was thinking about something.
Seeing this, Song Jiangjian smiled, his eyes fell on Wei Liangchen who was lying on the window and looking out, and asked, "What are you looking for?"
"I'm a little drunk, so I'll wake up." Liangchen didn't look back.
Send a signal to people, where is the person?
The streets were still quiet and there was no movement at all.
Not to mention a single arrow through the clouds, thousands of troops will meet each other, at least you will have to have more than a dozen or twenty thugs and servants.
Liangchen secretly complained: These two guys are clearly showing off.
However, people have the confidence to pretend to be like this.
Song Jiangjian and Gongzi Ge both said that Wei Liangchen was afraid and wanted to see how many people they called, but they were funny, but they didn't say it out loud.
After all, he is a young man, a fifteen or sixteen-year-old Confucian boy, how brave can he have?
Song Jiangjian was probably hungry, so he picked up Yan Shou's chopsticks, wiped them for a while, and then started to eat.
The young master drank a glass of wine with him. After putting down the glass, he saw Wei Liangchen lying on the window and looking out. Song Jiangjian couldn't help but smile and said, "This kid is quite interesting."
"Um."
The young master agreed with this view. This kid is interesting. If it is boring, he wouldn't have pulled him up to the brothel.
Unexpectedly, Song Jiangjian then said, "Like you, you are stupid."
"Silly?" The young master was stunned: How could he say this?
"Of course." Song Jiangjian laughed, "You have the power to pretend not to be a grandson, but he has no power to pretend to be a grandson."
"Yeah, maybe."
The young master was not angry at all. At this point, he and his father were two completely different people, so his sister asked him to go to Jiangnan instead of his father.
After all, the smaller the movement of this matter, the better. If it gets bigger, it will be like the demon book case, and it will be a mute eating yellow lotus again, and it will be hard to say what you have.
Compared with the incompetent father, the obedient younger brother is undoubtedly the best candidate for his sister.
However, my sister never expected that her obedient brother would have many thoughts that she could not have thought of.
"Brother Song, I don't like to listen to you when you say this." Liangchen heard the words surnamed Song, he took his head back from the window and looked at the other party with dissatisfaction, "What do you mean that I can't pretend to be a master?"
The young master smiled but said nothing, and Song Jiangjian asked back: "Isn't it?"
"Of course not." Liangchen sat down and said solemnly: "I have the power to defend myself."
"Don't say that the first-class first place is not the first in the world. The exam has not been released just after the exam." Thinking of this boy getting drunk and bragging before, Song Jiangjian couldn't help but want to laugh. Even though he was knowledgeable, he had never seen such a shameless young man, or even a shameless young man.
"I won't mention this."
Liangchen chuckled, can he take it seriously if he has too much wine and bragging? Besides, this is the effect he wants.
Song Jiangjian smiled: "Then what's the point of fighting for you?"
Liangchen said, "My power is so powerful that I can scare you to death."
"You tell me, see if I will be scared to death." Song Jiangjian was so happy, he didn't believe it anymore.
"You've sat upright," said the good minister mysteriously: "My second uncle is from the palace."
"Puff!"
Song Jiangjian sprayed Liangchen's face with a sip of wine.
The young master almost squirted out, stopped his smile, and looked at Liangchen in amazement: "The people in the palace are amazing?"
"Of course." Liangchen wiped the wine from his face and smiled.
"He is not convinced if you say that." Song Jiang pointed at the young master. When the young master saw it, he couldn't help but want to kick him.
Liangchen said "Oh": "Why?"
"Because there are people in his family in the palace." After Song Jiangjian said that, he squeezed his eyes at the young master. The young master glared at him angrily, turned his head and smiled at Wei Liangchen, and nodded slightly.
Wei Liangchen was very surprised: "Your uncle is also a husband in the palace."
"This...is not..."
The young master coughed twice, but the sound of horse hooves came from outside the building.
"Here you come."
Song Jiangjian shrugged his shoulders, and the young master smiled bitterly. There were a lot of horse hooves and many footsteps. This was not an ordinary servant thug or something. If you don’t have to look at it, you will know that it was probably officers and soldiers.
"Or why should I go hide?" Liangchen looked scared and wanted to go out.
"Where can you hide?" Song Jiangjian grabbed him, speechless. This young man was too cowardly.
"It's okay, just sit down." The young master comforted the good minister, "I'm here."
I just want to run away with you if I beat you to death. I won’t be with you.
The good minister cursed secretly.
This young master is not on the same path as him. I am my Wei Liangchen, and you are your young master, and it would be great if you don’t miss the river.
There was a noise downstairs, and soon, the sound of rapid footsteps came from the stairs, and the brothel was full of chaos and a group of officers and soldiers rushed to the second floor.
"Mr. Liu, why are you here in person?... Mr. Liu, what's wrong with you?" Outside the house, Mother Jiang's voice seemed to be a ghost. Many girls were shocked when they saw this scene.
"Get out!"
It seemed that Lord Liu was scolding Jiang's mother. Huanfei and Yanshou looked at each other, and were so scared that they were dying. This was clearly because the father was personally making his son stand out.
The footsteps suddenly disappeared outside the house, as if frozen. After a moment, a gentle knock on the door sounded.
"Young Master Zheng is inside?" A middle-aged man's voice came in.
Mr. Zheng?
Huanfei and Yanshou looked at the young master at the same time. Liangchen also looked over, but his expression was a little complicated.
"I just knew."
The young master sighed, stood up slowly, and said to the outsider: "It's me, come in."
After the door of the house was pushed open, he saw the co-master Liu Guotai respectfully stepping into the house, but behind him was Mr. Liu who was tied up in various colors.
"The rebellious son offended the young master, so the official specially tied him up and asked the young master to deal with it!" Liu Guotai pulled his son to the front and pressed him to the ground.
Mr. Liu looked frightened and looked scared. Not only did he lose his domineering spirit, but he even lost his energy.
"It's no big deal, why are you tying him? Isn't it difficult for Lord Liu to do this? After it was spread, people even said how I bully you father and son... I'll do it quickly." The young man named Zheng shook his head, apparently dissatisfied with Liu Tongzhi's actions of Fu'er coming to see him. He waved his hand and signaled Liu Tongzhi to loosen his son.
"I'm not grateful to Mr. Zheng!"
Zheng Guotai cursed his son, but he was relieved. In recent years, there have been rumors in Beijing that this little uncle was a playboy and bold. He relied on his sister's favor and was lawless in the capital and treated human life as grass. Now it seems that it is not like the rumors. It is still like the first time they met. It seems that this rumors are really unreliable.
After loosening the ties, Mr. Liu did not dare to get up and just knelt down. Liu Tongzhi would not let his son get up like this. No matter what Mr. Zheng's attitude was, the rebellious son would have to suffer. Otherwise, if he would be unable to bear to do this one day for him.
Song Jiangjian looked in front of him with a calm expression, as if it was commonplace.
"I don't know that the young master will arrive early, so I will be given a rank..." Liu Tongzhi was extremely humble towards Mr. Zheng, and humble from the bottom of his heart.
This made Mr. Zheng sigh secretly. Liu Guotai changed so much, and he was not like that back then.
"I haven't seen you for a few years, why did you become a different person? This is not like you back then." Mr. Zheng smiled and shook his head, with a hint of emotion in his tone.
