After a day, you can earn a lot of money.Not to be outdone, the opera singer set up the stage.The songs are all familiar to everyone, in the middle of the year.Such an opportunity is rare.Therefore, almost all the people in Jiangning County have gone out, and no one will stay at home.

The Lantern Festival starts at You hour and lasts until Zi hour. This is the busiest time. Everywhere is crowded with people, especially the young men and women who come out to guess riddles, show their talents, and win everyone’s applause. .

This day also had the most lantern riddles, two thousand. Su Tiancheng had already told Wan Chenggui that the day on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month was different. If everyone is interested in guessing riddles, you might as well come up with more lantern riddles.

Su Tiancheng also wants to go out, this is also to have fun with the people, wear ordinary clothes, go to guess lantern riddles, walk among the crowd, and experience the feeling of being among the common people. <Ping, Wang Furong and Liu Rushi have already made preparations, dressed up beautifully, and followed him to go out to guess lantern riddles.

Zhu Shenxin also specially invited Mo Wenjuan, who is a master at guessing lantern riddles.

Su Tiancheng is the county magistrate of Jiangning County, Zhu Shenxin is the wife of the imperial court and the head of the county, and their identities are not ordinary. Therefore, they went out to guess lantern riddles and participate in celebration activities. Sun Chuanting specially arranged fifty soldiers to protect them secretly.

As for Wang Dazhi, he has become Su Tiancheng's shadow, no matter where Su Tiancheng goes, he will follow closely.

Su Tiancheng and Lan Qiao were walking behind, Zhu Shenxin, Mo Wenjuan and others were walking in front. They were surrounded by soldiers from the Jiangning Camp. These people didn't care about the crowds. His main energy was Protect the safety of a group of people.

There were too many people, and there were bustling crowds everywhere. Su Tiancheng complained a little. Under such a scene, working safely was particularly important. <Ping and Liu Rushi were also concentrating. Wang Furong was a little bit worse. After all, she was not good enough. She volunteered to help redeem the prize.

Su Tiancheng and Lan Qiao were wandering around, they didn't know how to guess lantern riddles, they mainly wanted to feel the atmosphere.

"Get out of the way, get out of the way, get out of the way..."

Five strong men came over around a fair-faced young man. In the young man's hand, he held an ivory folding fan, which seemed to know its value. With three steps and three swings, wearing a cotton robe, he looks like a dandy rich man.

I don't know which rich son this is, he is trying to be elegant, it is still winter, holding an ivory folding fan, isn't he thinking of showing off, there have been such rich sons in all dynasties, relying on their wealth, they ran rampant Illegal, no big mistakes, no small mistakes, and there is a certain background behind it, even if you break the law, you can get asylum, which is a headache for the government.

There are too many such situations. In the south stable, there are so many officials and eunuchs, and there are rich sons. Fortunately, this is the accompanying capital, and there are no feudal princes. If there are dude feudal princes in other places, then Even more annoyed.

Since the celebration of the Lantern Festival is organized, there are advantages and disadvantages.

Just when Su Tiancheng was about to turn around and leave, a scene that stunned him appeared.

The rich man probably fell in love with a girl who was guessing riddles. This girl has a good figure and is accompanied by a servant girl. She is also wearing a bamboo hat and her face is covered by a white gauze.

The rich man walked up to the girl and spoke carelessly.

"I have admired the girl for a long time, please let the girl move forward."

When the maid next to the girl was about to speak, the strong man next to the young master pushed the maid aside. The girl probably didn't expect that such a thing would happen in broad daylight, and she was stunned for a while.

Damn, I didn't expect that in this era, there would be such a way of confession. Su Tiancheng was a little surprised. If this young master talked to other girls well, he wouldn't bother meddling in so many other matters, but the strong man around the young master obviously did it in the wrong way. No, several people surrounded the young master and the young lady. It seemed that if the young lady refused to agree, she might have to attack.

The servant girl was pushed and staggered, she couldn't stand firmly, and sat on the ground, but this servant girl was pretty good, even when she was sitting on the ground, she started yelling.

"Sir, don't be rude, my lady is here to attend the Lantern Festival."

The rich young man looked at the maid sitting on the ground, and the smile on his face became more casual.

"I have admired the girl for a long time, you servant girl, please stop talking too much. If you continue to yell, I will not be polite."

While the rich man was talking, he stretched out his hand, and was about to take off the bamboo hat on the girl's head. The girl stretched out her hand to block it. At this moment, the servant girl who was sitting on the ground got the strength to stand up quickly and walked quickly. When he reached the girl's side, he used his body to block the front of his own lady.

The rich man was probably angry, and he slapped the servant girl. After the clear slap, the maid staggered, still standing in front of his lady. The rich man did not speak, but the strong man around him moved. Holding the maid's hair, she was about to drag the maid away, but the maid's face turned pale from the pain, and she yelled, telling her own lady to leave quickly.

Lan Qiaozheng beside Su Tiancheng, his eyes widened.

There were a lot of people around, and when they saw this rich man, there was a look of fear on their faces, as if they didn't want to cause trouble.

The moment Su Tiancheng was thinking, the rich man had already lifted off the girl's hat, and a beautiful face appeared in front of everyone. The girl's complexion was pale, and there were tears in her eyes.

"Oh, the girl is really beautiful and heavenly. I admire her so much. Look, what is sad about the girl? I will definitely help her to solve it."

While the rich man was talking, he reached out his hand, ready to help the girl wipe away her tears.

This is blatantly molesting girls, and it is during the Lantern Festival.

"Young master, in broad daylight, molesting a woman from a good family, do you know that there is still a king's law?"

When Su Tiancheng was talking, the rich man didn't even turn his head, which meant he didn't care. He moved closer to the girl and opened his mouth.

"Where did the crow come from, spoil the good things of this young master, go and teach him a lesson."

With a smile on Su Tiancheng's face, there is such an arrogant person.

Wang Dazhi couldn't bear it long ago, he and the other soldiers around him rushed forward.

Between the calcium carbide flames, the screams came out. The few strong men around the rich man were no match for Wang Dazhi and others. These people had experienced fighting on the battlefield, and they received rigorous training every day. A few strong men came with their hands.

Before the rich man's hand touched the girl's face, he heard screams. When he turned his head, he saw several of his guards, all of whom fell to the ground and howled.

The face of the rich young man changed, looking at Su Tiancheng who was standing not far in front of him, he gritted his teeth and spoke fiercely.

"I don't know which side you are sacred. I want to stand out."

Before Su Tiancheng opened his mouth, Lan Qiao couldn't bear it anymore.

"Bold, in front of the county magistrate, you molested a woman from a good family, and even uttered wild words, what should you do?"

Su Tiancheng didn't have time to stop it.

Wang Dazhi had already walked to the side of the rich young master, and kicked his knee. Before the rich young master could scream, he knelt down in front of Su Tiancheng. (to be continued., welcome to the starting point to vote for recommendations,,, mobile phone users, please go to read
