The Second Master of the Red Chamber

Chapter 563

When they came to the Royal Racecourse, they loaded the weak and helpless Third Sister You into the carriage, and went to the gun test site together.

Since the transformation of firearms became effective, Jia Lian ordered twenty of them to equip his personal guards.

Of course, the main thing is to let them get used to the use of firearms, and test the practicality of the modified firearms by the way.

"boom"

"bang bang"

"bang bang bang"

Scattered loud sounds came from the shooting range.

"Second Master!"

"How about it, the brothers below will use it?"

"I know how to use it. Foreman Wu from the Musket Battalion came to teach them in person. Everyone learned it quickly, but..."

Zhang Yong had a troubled expression on his face, hesitating and faltering.

"Just what?"

"It's just...Second Master, you can see for yourself."

Following Zhang Yong's instructions, Jia Lian looked over and saw that almost all of his more than 50 personal soldiers were here.

They are also constantly experimenting and communicating, but after a closer look, it is not difficult to find that most of them have the intention of complaining, and some even gather together with guns in their hands, chatting and laughing, obviously deserting.

Seeing that Jia Lian seemed to understand everyone's "public opinion", Zhang Yong said quickly: "Master Hou looks good, although everyone can use this thing, but the accuracy is really bad, and the speed is too slow. After firing once, It will take a dozen or so breaths at the earliest before it is ready to launch the next time.

Everyone said that this thing is useless at all, it is not as good as bow and arrow, and they don't really want to practice this thing..."

Hearing Zhang Yong's words, Jia Lian was neither surprised nor angry.

Step forward on the horse and let someone hand him a musket and ammunition. After a while of skilled operation, sit on the horse and aim at a distant wooden target and shoot directly.

The huge gunshot startled the white horse restless for a while, but Jia Lian easily controlled it, and Jia Lian looked happy, because according to his judgment, he must have been hit.

A look signaled, and soon the reporter shouted loudly: "I've hit it, I've hit it, Master Hou shot right inside the third ring road!"

So the audience exclaimed with the sound of horses, followed one after another.

Even Liu Xianglian admired and said: "Master Hou is indeed very powerful. I waited for a long time for the test, and ten shots may not be able to hit within the third ring, and even most of them missed the target. I didn't expect Master Hou to hit the third ring directly with one shot. Let the subordinates feel ashamed."

Jia Lian smiled slightly, thinking that if the shot was missed, it would be difficult for him to start the speech, it was so simple.

After asking Liu Xianglian and others about the specific test results, Jia Lian cleared his throat and was about to speak when he saw the guards from the Royal Racecourse running towards him.

"Master Hou, there are a few women riding horses outside. They say they are old friends of Master Hou. They want to break in. The younger ones dare not be self-confident, so they come here to report."

"woman?"

Jia Lian was slightly taken aback, although he wasn't single-minded, he didn't think he was merciful outside, how could there be women chasing here, and how many at a time?
"Those women are all very handsome, they don't look like they are here to cause trouble..." The guard seemed to see Jia Lian's doubts, and explained in this way.

But his explanation stunned everyone.

Feng Fei even said with a smile: "Since she is a beauty, why don't you go out and have a look, Master Hou? If she is one of our future general's wives, you can't neglect her."

He was grinning, because Jia Lian was usually tolerant, and he had a life-threatening friendship with Jia Lian on the battlefield, so he dared to make this joke.

It's just that under Jia Lian's gaze, he still shrank his neck, laughed and looked away.

Jia Lian was also about to go out to have a look, but his train of thought was interrupted anyway, so he said: "You guys continue to practice, don't neglect, when I come back, I will teach you the real way to use the musket!"

After speaking, he turned his horse's head and prepared to leave.

"Where are you going? I'm going too!" Third Sister You jumped out of the carriage and asked hastily, as if she was afraid that Jia Lian would just run away.

In fact, she had heard the servant's reply before, and wanted to see how beautiful those women were.

"Be quiet."

Jia Lian rode away without looking back.

This made Third Sister You very annoyed, and stomped her feet fiercely in the carriage.Suddenly surprised, it doesn't hurt anymore?
He reached out his hand to touch the wound through the fabric, and then tentatively stood up in the carriage with a bent waist.

It seems that it is not as big a problem as imagined.

Third Sister You became happy again, and felt that the senior was not deceiving, and that it was really just a pain.

So he walked left and right in the carriage twice, feeling bored, rolled his eyes, opened the curtain directly, and jumped out of the carriage.

hiss……

That jump out of the car was kind of funny because no one lifted the footstool for her.

Even so, she didn't show it at all, because the field in front was full of Jia Lian's soldiers, and some of them must have guessed the relationship between her and their Marquis, so she couldn't let them see anything strange Come.

"Hey, third aunt, why did you come here all by yourself? If you have any orders, just ask the younger ones to come over and wait for you. How can I help you?"

Zhao'er was originally watching everyone test their guns and thought it was very interesting, but when he suddenly turned around and saw Third Sister You walking over, he ran up to greet them like a dog's leg.

But he knew that this lord might have been promoted to one of his lords just now, otherwise why would the second master give it to him to prepare the carriage?

At this time, if he doesn't take good care of him, if something goes wrong, he can't bear it.

Third Sister You, who walked over calmly, gave Zhao'er a blank look. Although she knew that after she joined Jia Lian, these people would treat her differently, she still felt uncomfortable with Zhao'er's overly "filial" attitude. uneasy.

One bite at a time, are you old?She's the youngest?

At first glance, she is the youngest in the whole scene.

But she is still very happy in her heart, because she knows Zhao'er's position beside Jia Lian, which is only known from the frequency of Zhao'er appearing beside Jia Lian.

So he smiled and said to Zhao'er, "I heard your second master call you Zhao'er?"

"It's the slave..."

"Reward you."

Third Sister You pulled out a silver hairpin from her head and threw it to Zhaoer.

Third Sister You is not a person who has nothing to do with success.Don't look at her giving her body to Jia Lian in a daze, in fact, she has weighed many things in her heart before.

A couple with a flat head has the benefits of a couple with a flat head, and a woman who is a Hou Ye has the benefits of being a woman of a Hou Ye.

Since the latter is chosen, it is natural to follow the latter's rules.

She had read the court script. If the concubines wanted to compete for favor, they had to win over the eunuchs around the emperor.

It's pretty much the same in Duke Houmen's mansion, besides, she just became the other party's new master, and the other party respects her so much, which is justified.

Originally, she just wanted to give a random reward, but this time she was in a hurry to go out, and she didn't expect that there would be money to spend, so she saw the gift with a silver hairpin.

This hairpin was not very valuable at first, it was sent by Youshi in batches to decorate their sisters, and she didn't like it very much, so it would be appropriate to use it as a reward.

The most important thing is that even though Third Sister You didn't want to admit it in her heart, she knew that after becoming Jia Lian's woman, these things would definitely not be lacking.

"How can this make it impossible to get rewarded for nothing? Third Aunt's grandma has ruined this slave. How dare a slave want things from Third Aunt's grandma..."

Zhao'er is not Wu Xia's Amon. In the past few years, Sister Feng taught him openly and secretly, and rewarded him.

After all, compared to Sister Feng's, Third Sister You's methods are still very immature, so he certainly saw the meaning at a glance.

However, he immediately pretended to be flattered, knelt down, and held it in his hands as a gesture of repayment.

Third Sister You became more and more satisfied, and waved her hand very generously, "Since I gave it to you, you can put it away, maybe I will need you in the future, so just don't refuse."

"Uh, yes, yes, the servant dare not listen to the words of the third aunt. In the future, I will still count on the third aunt to support the servant."

Zhao'er smiled and put the hairpin away.But he was thinking about it in his heart, Third Sister You was young and ignorant, but he understood that he kept the close things worn by the mistress as a way to bring disaster, so he had no choice but to have someone melt them into silver pieces after returning home, or Just give it to your family.

"What orders does Grandma Sangu have?"

Having benefited, Zhao'er naturally showed more respect, and asked with a stern face.

"I want to try that too, firecracker? It looks fun..." Third Sister You pointed to the shooting range in front of her, explaining why she came here.

"This... is too dangerous. If you hurt Grandma Sangu, the servants can't afford to be negligent. Otherwise, Grandma Sangu should ride a horse, or wait until Second Master comes back..."

When Third Sister You heard this, she immediately frowned in dissatisfaction.She wanted to be Jia Lian's personal guard, and she wanted to show off her skills and courage in front of these people, so she said dissatisfiedly: "Why, you also look down on women, thinking that I am just a woman, not worthy of playing with your men's things ?

I'm afraid you don't know that my aunt also practiced martial arts since she was a child.Your second master has already promised me to recruit me to be his No. 3 female bodyguard, how dare you look down on me, kid? "

"Uh, since that's the case, let me go over and tell them to prepare..."

Zhao'er smiled wryly, regardless of what Third Sister You said was true or not, this kind of "upstart" must not be offended.

So he hurriedly discussed with Zhang Yong and others, and vacated the venue to play for Third Sister You.

Let’s not talk about how Third Sister You came to the shooting range proudly, enjoying the feeling of being surrounded by stars, but Jia Lian came outside on horseback, and saw the women in plain clothes outside the wooden gate at a glance.

He immediately stepped forward and stopped in front of the opponent's horse, and asked in surprise, "Why are you here?"

"Why, you don't welcome me?"

Princess Zhaoyang smiled like a spring breeze as always, and turned her head to the side to lift her hair in a bun.

Jia Lian shook his head, then swept towards a woman behind Princess Zhaoyang.

Seeing this, the woman felt a little timid.

"Don't blame her, she didn't intend to reveal your whereabouts. I was bored today and asked her to ask her. If you are angry, just throw it on me. I am ready to be scolded by you."

Princess Zhaoyang is so intelligent, she can see the meaning of Jia Lian's eyes at a glance, so she smiled.

Her maidservant, Hu Yuanyao, was the bond she specially placed beside Jia Lian, but she didn't want to make Jia Lian want to get rid of him just because of today's trivial matter.

But Jia Lian didn't take the blame, because Princess Zhaoyang gave this beauty to him, and she made it clear that her role was just like that.

If Jia Lian didn't worry about Princess Zhaoyang, she wouldn't have placed her in the important place of the study.

Besides, even if she is really unhappy, she should let it go under Princess Zhaoyang's words.

He should be content with the dignified princess who followed him without knowing why and kept her posture so low.

So he smiled back and said: "Qingran's words are serious, it's my luck to have Qingran care about her whereabouts, how can I be angry?

Besides, how could I be willing to scold you..."

When Jia Lian said this, the three maidservants dressed in men's clothes behind Princess Zhaoyang couldn't help snickering.

Fortunately, Princess Zhaoyang has a big personality, so she just glanced at Jia Lian, scolded Jia Lian as a "poor mouth", and then said: "I heard that you built a horse farm here, but you haven't come here to play. Why, today I It’s all here, and Erlang won’t invite me in to have a look?”

How could Jia Lian fail to hear Princess Zhaoyang's resentment.

One of her Huangzhuang is not far from here, and she invited herself to play before, and this time she must have changed her clothes and ran here for the reason of going there.

So he beat the horse out of the way and said "please" respectfully.
