On the twenty-ninth day of the New Year, the New Year is approaching. Jinling City is full of lanterns and colorful lights. The city is full of red. The flavor of the New Year is already too strong.
Song Mu was driving a carriage on the road in Jinling at the moment, and sitting in the carriage were Tao Fengming and Sun Qinghe.
After visiting Sun Qinghe yesterday, the two stayed at his house. Last night, Sun Qing and Tao Fengming had a long talk, while Song Mu read at night by candlelight, but occasionally he felt a little confused.
And early today, Sun Qinghe came to find Song Mu and set off for the military camp.
And he still took Song Mu’s carriage to go there.
Although it is the New Year, less than one-third of the soldiers in Jinling City can return home during the annual leave, and those soldiers in the city are even required to be on standby at all times.
As a large city, Jinling City has a very terrifying number of soldiers. The Eastern Border Army alone has tens of thousands of soldiers stationed here, plus the border troops stationed in some surrounding cities. If the situation is urgent, they can be stationed in Jinling in a short time. The city gathered hundreds of thousands of Eastern Border troops.
However, the border army was only responsible for fighting foreign enemies. The city's defense and order maintenance were mostly maintained by the government army. There were also tens of thousands of soldiers, all under the control of Sun Qinghe.
Today Sun Qinghe went to inspect, firstly to check the situation of military readiness, and secondly to celebrate the festival with the soldiers.
This was also a last resort. In the past, cities were raided by demons on New Year's Eve, resulting in heavy casualties. Later, the Wen Dynasty made it clear that the laws required that the frontier troops of all prefectures must be in full preparedness during holidays and imperial examination days.
The carriage was passing through the streets, and the words of Sun Qinghe and Tao Fengming's conversation also reached Song Mu's ears, but most of them were official matters that Song Mu didn't know about. Song Mu just concentrated on driving the carriage.
No one would have thought that on this old carriage, there was actually an envoy from the city regiment, and the driver was a Jieyuan.
The sun is shining brightly today, and the streets of Jinling City are full of pedestrians and lively, and the carriages are not moving very fast.
When they arrived at a prosperous place, two carriages suddenly appeared in front of them, blocking the road immediately, and then something was suddenly thrown down from the leading carriage.
Then there was a sharp shout.
"Wang Po, get out of here!"
The speaker spoke with a drake voice, and the person who came down from the top was a man in brocade clothes, with a thin face, mean eyebrows, and sloppy steps.
The man jumped out of the carriage and spat at the thing that had just been thrown off the carriage. Only then did Song Mu see clearly that it was a yellow dog, but it was motionless and he thought it was out of breath.
Several more men in brocade clothes came down from the two carriages. They all looked well-dressed. They were all standing next to the tall and thin man with a duck voice just now, looking forward with arrogant expressions.
The people nearby saw this situation and quickly backed down. At this moment, they turned around and saw that it was a brothel.
The girls in the brothel trembled when they saw this situation, and quickly backed away, but they saw a very gorgeously dressed woman coming out of there, and said with a smile on her face.
"Hey, isn't this Mr. Kuang? What kind of wind has brought you here again?"
The lady-in-law walked out with her powdered face. The so-called Mr. Hua frowned and spoke immediately.
"Stop here, young master. Today, I'm here to ask you for compensation. Yesterday, your mangy dog bit me. I'll pay you a thousand taels of silver so that I can look after my injuries."
"How about I ask you, Yuezhu from Nanyan Tower, to come with me all night."
Mr. Kuang was arrogant and raised his chin. The Queen Mother suddenly paused when she heard this, with fear on her face. But Mr. Kuang just stood there leisurely, looking like he had been bitten by a dog.
Song Mu's carriage was parked aside, and now he could see clearly that this guy was going to cause trouble for this brothel.
At this time, the curtain of the carriage was also lifted. Sun Qinghe looked up and immediately frowned and said displeasedly.
"It's actually that Kuang Bing. This is really a narrow road for enemies."
With that said, Sun Qinghe looked at Song Mu and said.
"My dear nephew, this guy was the instigator of what I told you yesterday."
"These gangsters are causing trouble in the street again."
Song Mu turned his face sideways, and Sun Qinghe looked outside, but turned back to the carriage. At this moment, he just said a few words.
"Let's find another way. Let's not get involved in this matter for now. The government will handle it on its own."
"It seems that tomorrow, New Year's Eve, I will have to come and give their old man a thumbs up."
Song Mu also nodded at the moment. In this kind of dog-eat-dog thing, Song Mu didn't feel that he needed to pity anyone.
Although this guy was the so-called general's son who insulted Miss Gu's innocence, now that Lord Sun had spoken, Song Mu didn't want to get involved.
At that moment, Song Mu was about to turn the horse's head when he heard a shout from the other side.
"Okay, your wife, you dare to accuse me of beating me up. So many people have seen it, and my brothers can all testify. If I really think that I am so easy to bully, I think you have become a madam to your death."
"Brother, these guys dare to be so disrespectful to me, my eldest brother, let's teach them a lesson now!"
Saying this, Song Mu suddenly saw the people around him retreating. He turned around and saw that one of the guys standing behind Kuang Bin was throwing out a piece of paper, and there was a flame. formed on its hands.
Song Mu was stunned. Is this guy still a scholar?
The guy had already knocked out the flames, and was now burning towards the Wang Po. The Wang Po screamed and wanted to hide, but the guy didn't give up, and burned his hands with flames.
The people around him screamed in surprise when they saw the situation, but the next moment, a strong wind hit, and the flames disappeared completely.
"who!"
The guy who cast the spell was immediately furious. He turned around and looked around with his face full of red pimples, and then suddenly froze.
He suddenly saw a carriage not far away, and the young man in brocade clothes sitting on it looked calm at the moment.
But how could he not find out that strength?
"Brother, what's wrong? Who dares to cause trouble?"
Na Kuang Bing also noticed it at this moment. He raised his eyebrows and asked. He followed his younger brother's gaze and saw a broken carriage. His eyes darkened at this moment.
"Brother, there's something wrong with that guy."
The guy with the red pimples on his face said this, and the expression on his face was a little stiff.
"He may be the most powerful person."
"Jiuren? Just him?"
Kuang Bin was shocked when he heard this, but he looked at Song Mu again and looked at the carriage. The expression on his face at this moment was disdain.
"A broken coach driver is tall... How can he be compared with what I have?"
With that said, Kuang Bing took a step forward, held the fan in his hand, and shouted at Song Mu.
"What kind of guy is that short-sighted? I didn't see that I was seeking justice."
"It is a shame for literati to use literary power against ordinary people. It is even more disgusting for you to instigate literati to do such shameful things."
Song Mu's calm voice was heard, and when Na Kuang Bing heard this, his expression suddenly became stern. He felt that such a guy dared to speak to him like this, and he was really slapped in the face in the street.
Kuang Bing rolled his eyes, pointed at Song Mu, and spoke.
"Okay, you guy, you actually helped an old bustard speak for you. Do you really think that I will be bullied by you when you are my queen?"
Saying this, Kuang Bing immediately came towards Song Mu. Song Mu looked stern. He didn't expect that this guy actually dared to act like this.
But the people who were watching didn't know what was going on at this moment, and they looked at Kuang Bin's movements and flinched.
The person who knew the situation looked a bit worried and angry at the moment, feeling that Song Mu was trying to show off and was going to be bullied by these arrogant young masters.
At that moment, Na Kuanghe rushed forward, fished it out, and grabbed Song Mu's collar.
Song Mu frowned at this moment, and his body was full of energy.
Kuang Bing's eyes widened suddenly, and Song Mu had already reached out and grabbed his wrist.
"Keep your mouth open and keep your disciples in check, while others fight behind the gates to fight on the battlefield, so you will only do some sneaky things in this fishy neighborhood!"
"What do you think? Do you think everyone is easy to bully?!"
Saying this, Song Mu grabbed the other person's wrist and gave it a gentle squeeze.
The guy whose body had been drained by alcohol and sex suddenly screamed in pain and fell to his knees.
