Four hundred and eighty-four chapters arrow on the string
Han could encounter disturbing things during the Lantern Festival. Being disturbed by Ouyang Lun, the three of them naturally couldn't go shopping anymore. After sending Yao Yue back to Jiaofangsi, he took his sister back home.
After tricking his sister away, Han Du quietly went to the underground secret room alone.
The two revolvers and a box of shells and bullets placed on the table were the results of Han Du's visits to the secret room every night these days.
The guncotton has been made, and Han Du has to complete the last step of making the bullet. Put the fuze and guncotton into the cartridge case, and then install the warhead. It is also easy to install the warhead. Use a mold to forcefully press the cartridge case and warhead together.
Just do it together.
But don't press too hard. Copper is relatively soft. If you press too hard, the warhead will be deformed and it will be scrapped.
Han Du slowly filled the guncotton into the cartridge case with a wooden stick and pressed it tightly, installed the warhead, placed it in a simple stamper and pressed it lightly.
A bright yellow bullet lay quietly on the mold. Han Du picked it up and looked at it carefully. The joint between the bullet and the bullet case fit perfectly. It seemed that although it was his first time to make this thing, he was lucky.
Just succeed.
I weighed it in my hand and it felt a little heavy. The short and fat shape of the bullet looked a bit cute, but now, except for Han Du, no one would know that such a small thing could be a weapon for killing people.
On the surface, it seems that Han Du has successfully made a bullet, but Han Du is not sure whether the bullet can be fired.
You have to try it to know.
Picked up a revolver, opened the cylinder, pushed the bullet in, and closed it. The gun was a bit thick and heavy in the hand. But there was nothing that could be done about it. Han Du didn't know if the steel could withstand it.
Due to the chamber pressure of the bullet, for safety reasons, it is natural to make the barrel wall thicker.
But Han Du, with the gun in his hand, had some hesitation. Do he really want to try here? If he succeeds, the movement will definitely alarm his family.
After coming over for a moment, Han Du's eyes flashed with determination, he waved his hand, raised his gun and pulled the trigger.
"boom!"
Following an explosion, Han Du saw a few sparks flashing away deep in the secret room.
Success!
But before Han Du could be happy for long, his father's roar could be heard faintly.
"What happened?"
Han Du quickly put down the revolver and walked out of the secret room.
After turning a few corners, I saw all the family members gathered together, looking around.
"Brother, your room is over here, why did you come over there?" Han Jingyun had a sharp eye and asked suspiciously as soon as he saw Han Du.
With such a look on his face, Han Du walked up to his family with his hands behind his back and explained: "I felt a little bored in the house, so I went out for a walk."
"Then did you hear what happened just now? Did a thief come in?" Hande asked quickly.
Han Du shook his head pretending not to know, and said: "Of course I heard the noise, but I didn't see anyone. Maybe it's not a thief who entered the house, maybe it was drought thunder in the sky."
"Drought thunder?"
Although Han Du's explanation is reasonable, not everyone believes it.
Ms. Liu didn't quite believe it and said hesitantly: "But I heard it clearly just now. The sound came from around here, not from the sky."
Well......
Han Du's expression remained unchanged and he said casually: "Really? Maybe people on the surrounding streets are setting off firecrackers. It's normal for people to set off firecrackers during the Lantern Festival."
After listening to Han Du's explanation, although several people were a little suspicious, they did not delve deeper. Moreover, the sound only appeared once, and now there is no more movement. Several people gathered together to discuss, but they could not come up with a reason. In the end,
We had no choice but to give it up and go back to our rooms to rest.
As the wedding day in Anqing got closer and closer, Lao Zhu's face became less and less smiling. Because except for Han Du's poem that made him excited, Han Du returned to his usual appearance in the following days.
Go out step by step, go on duty, and go home.
Lao Zhu became more and more anxious, and Queen Ma wanted to laugh more and more.
"Tomorrow is the wedding day in Anqing, but what the emperor wanted has not happened. What should we do now?"
The expected thing did not happen, which made Lao Zhu, who was extremely controlling, very dissatisfied. He couldn't help but glared at Queen Ma, raised his head and muttered: "What else can be done? The wedding will go ahead as scheduled."
Queen Ma was shocked when she heard this and asked quickly: "Do we really want to go ahead as scheduled? I am worried that something unexpected might happen in Anqing."
"What will happen to her? This can only mean that she has seen the wrong person." Lao Zhu responded forcefully.
Queen Ma's expression changed and she didn't say anything more. She was just thinking about how to comfort An Qing.
Although it is not a universal celebration when the emperor marries his daughter, there is still a celebration in the whole capital. Although the common people have seen the scene of the emperor marrying his daughter more than once, every time this time comes, the streets are still empty. People from all over the capital will gather together.
On the street where the bride was welcomed, both sides of the consecutive streets from the Imperial Palace to Donglimen were crowded with people watching the excitement, and it was very lively and crowded.
Han Du did not go on duty as usual today, but led a horse early to the Dongli Gate. He randomly found a tavern closer to the door of his home, walked in, ordered a few side dishes, and leaned against the
I sat down on the street, drank some wine, and looked at the noisy people.
Lao Zhu walked back and forth in front of Queen Ma, and the people in the palace stayed far away, fearing that if they got too close, they would get into trouble.
Queen Ma looked at the restless Lao Zhu and couldn't help but sigh and said: "Why don't we cancel this wedding? Although the child in Anqing has not said a word in the past two days, my concubine can see it. She
He is determined to die. Although canceling the wedding will cause the royal family to lose some face, it is better than us losing our daughter, right?"
Lao Zhu's face was cold and stern, his eyes were blazing with anger, he held his neck and said in a deep voice: "Now that the arrow is on the string, it has to be fired. How can we stop the wedding?"
Seeing that the emperor had his own way, Empress Ma sighed slightly and said nothing more.
The old eunuch came in and said that Mao Xiang was here.
Mao Xiang had just come in, and before he could salute the emperor, Lao Zhu quickly asked: "Tell me, what is Han Du doing?"
Mao Xiang came here just for this matter.
When Lao Zhu learned that Han Du went to the tavern to drink and watch the excitement, he was immediately dumbfounded. This was a revenge for taking his wife. Not only did he not think of any way to get it back, he actually had the intention to watch someone else marry An Qing away?
