(Thanks to hhhffv for his precious monthly ticket. The new month is here. I hope to get more support from readers. Thank you.

Nanjing is the capital, and attaches great importance to the Lantern Festival. It has always been organized directly by the government. Shangyuan County and Jiangning County are particularly heavy in the organization of the two counties in the Nanjian. The Lantern Festival requires money. Without money, nothing can be done.

The Lantern Festival is lively because of the lively atmosphere of beauties. It turns out that girls in the Ming Dynasty, especially girls from wealthy families, are generally unable to go out and stay in the boudoir. However, on the Lantern Festival, girls all come out, guessing riddles, watching juggling, listening to operas, and dressing beautifully, which attracts everyone's attention. These girls are not old and when they are in love, if they meet a man they like during the Lantern Festival, they are not uncommon to fall in love with each other. Of course, if they think about getting married and being able to elope, it would be a joke.

The fifteenth day of the first lunar month is the Lantern Festival, and the lantern festival on this evening is even more different from the ordinary ones.

During this year's Lantern Festival, Jiangning County was the leader, and most people gathered here. In comparison, the adjacent Shangyuan County is overshadowed.

All of this is determined by how much money is.

Su Tiancheng strongly supported the Lantern Festival celebrations, which was due to his understanding of commercial operations, as well as the historical development of the combination of officials and businessmen, and the economic foundation determines the superstructure. With the development of society, this trend is impossible to avoid and cannot be reversed. He asked Su Jun to conduct a detailed investigation. There were very few merchants in Jiangning County, including Shangyuan County, who were well-known, and most of them worked hard. The current set of complete management mechanisms established can promote the healthy development of Jiangning County.

The boundary between Jiangning County and Shangyuan County is actually the Qinhuai River. Some of the Qinhuai River is in Jiangning County. However, most of the places where brothels are concentrated are in Shangyuan County. The Lantern Festival and brothel girls also need to participate, and there are a lot of participants. Many brothel girls are experts in guessing riddles. Some girls do not necessarily care about the silver rewarded, but mainly want to show their own abilities. There are 10,000 riddles in Jiangning County, which is 10,000 taels of silver.

All kinds of celebrations began early in the morning, and the lion and dragon lantern dancers first came to the county government office, and then went to those big shops. After a day, they could earn a lot of money. The opera singers were not willing to be outdone, so they set up the stage and sang familiar songs. It was rare to have such an opportunity in the middle of a year. Therefore, almost all the people in Jiangning County went out, and no one would stay at home.

The time when the lantern festival begins, it lasts until the middle of the year. This is the most lively time. People are everywhere, especially a little boy and a beautiful woman, who come out to guess riddles, show their talents and win everyone's applause.

There are also the most riddles on this day, with two thousand pieces. Su Tiancheng has told Wan Chenggui that the day of the fifteenth day of the first lunar month is different. If everyone is interested in guessing riddles, they might as well take out some riddles.

Su Tiancheng also wants to go out, which is also a way to have fun with the people. He wears ordinary clothes, guesses riddles, walks among the crowd, and experiences the feeling of being integrated into the people.

He could not go out alone. Zhu Shenxin, Chunping, Wang Furong and Liu Rushi had already been prepared and dressed up beautifully. He followed him out to guess riddles.

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

Su Tiancheng is the magistrate of Jiangning County, and Zhu Shenxin is the wife of the imperial decree and the county lord. She has an extraordinary identity. So when they went out to guess riddles and participate in the celebration, 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 him 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 Jiangning Camp. These people did not care about the crowded scenes. His main energy was to protect the safety of the group.

There are too many people, and there are bustling crowds everywhere. Su Tiancheng complains a little. In such a scenario, safe work is particularly important.

Soon, Zhu Shenxin pulled Mo Wenjuan and began to guess riddles. Chunping and Liu Rushi were also focused. Wang Furong was a little worse. After all, her level was not enough. She volunteered to help claim the prize.

Su Tiancheng and Lanqiao were wandering around. They didn't know how to guess riddles, but mainly felt the atmosphere.

"Does go, dos go, dos go..."

Five strong men came around a young man with fair face. In his hands, he was holding an ivory folding fan and looked very valuable. The smile on the young man looked a little casual, and he walked one step at a time. He wore a cotton silk robe and looked like a playboy rich young man.

I don’t know which rich young man is this, he is pretty elegant. Now he is still in the middle of winter. He holds an ivory folding fan and wants to show off. There are such rich young man in all dynasties. He relies on his family’s wealth, he is rampant and does not make big mistakes, and he keeps making small mistakes. There is also a certain background behind it. Even if he breaks the law, he can be protected, which makes the government very troubled.

There are so many such situations. There are so many children of officials and rich young men in the south stable. Fortunately, there are no vassal kings here. If there are vassal kings in other places, they will be even more annoyed.

Since the Lantern Festival celebration has been organized, there are pros and cons.

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

The rich young man probably took a fancy to a girl who was guessing riddles. The girl had a very good figure and was accompanied by her maid. She also brought a hat and covered her face with a white gauze.

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

"I have admired the girl for a long time, please let me go and talk."

When the maid next to the girl was about to speak, the strong man around the young master had already pushed the maid aside. The girl probably didn't expect that such a thing would happen in broad daylight, and there would be a filial piety for a while.

Damn it, I didn't expect that there would be such a way to confess my love in this era. Su Tiancheng was a little surprised. If this young man talked to the girl properly, he wouldn't bother to care about so many idiots, but the strong man around the young man was obviously wrong. Several people surrounded the young man and the girl. It seemed that if the girl didn't agree, she might have to take action.

The maid was pushed and staggered, and she didn't stand firmly, and sat on the ground. However, this maid was pretty good. Even when she sat on the ground, she started to yell.

"Young Master, 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 even more casual.

"I have been admiring the girl for a long time. Don't talk too much, maid. If you continue to yell, I will be polite."

While talking, the rich young man reached out and was about to take off the hat from the girl's head. The girl reached out to block it. At this time, the maid sitting on the ground, who had no idea where the strength came from, quickly stood up, walked quickly to the girl's side, and blocked her own lady with her body.

The rich young man might be angry and slapped the maid. After the crisp slap, the maid staggered and still blocked his lady's face. The rich young man did not speak, and the strong man around him moved. A strong man grabbed the maid's hair and was about to drag the maid away. The maid turned pale in pain and shouted in her mouth, asking her lady to leave quickly.

Lan Qiaozheng beside Su Tiancheng's eyes were already glaring.

There were many people around him. When he saw this rich young man, he looked fearful on his face, as if he was unwilling to cause trouble. This is the reality, his status of being powerful and rich is extraordinary.

Just as Su Tiancheng was thinking, the rich young master had already opened the girl's hat and a beautiful face appeared in front of everyone. The girl's face was pale and tears were in her eyes.

"Oh, the girl is really beautiful. She admires her so much. Look, what sad things are there for her. I will definitely help her solve them."

While the rich young master was talking, he reached out and prepared to help the girl wipe her tears.

This is the blatant teasing of girls, and it is during the Lantern Festival.

"Young Master, in broad daylight, teasing a good woman, do you know that there is a kingly law?"

When Su Tiancheng spoke, the rich young master didn't even look back, just not caring. He moved closer to the girl and spoke.

"Where did the crow come from? I'm going to teach him a lesson."

Su Tiancheng had a smile on his face, and there was such an arrogant person.

Wang Dazhi had long been unable to help it, and he and the other soldiers around him rushed forward.

The sound of screams came from the flash of calcium carbide. The strong men around the rich young master were not opponents of Wang Dazhi and others. These people had experienced battles on the battlefield and received harsh training every day to deal with the strong men.

Before the rich young master could touch the girl's face, he heard screams. When he turned his head, he saw his guards all slumped to the ground and wailed.

The rich young master's face changed. Looking at Su Tiancheng standing not far away in front of him, he gritted his teeth and spoke fiercely.

"I don't know which sacred you are, I'm thinking about making a breakthrough."

Before Su Tiancheng could speak, Lan Qiao couldn't help it.

"Bold, in front of the magistrate, you tease a good woman and say something wildly. What should you blame?"

Su Tiancheng had no time to stop it.
