After dinner, Huzi and the others were clamoring to see the lanterns.

At this time, the sky is just dark, the moon is rising, and the street is already lively.

Walking in the crowded and brightly lit street market, Xiao Niannian finally experienced the prosperity of this era.

Figures shuttled, each carrying a lantern in their hands.

Shen Zhengwen also bought a lantern for the children, Xiao Niannian carried a small rabbit lantern, coupled with her pink jacket and two red pills, her cute appearance attracted passers-by to turn back frequently.

Huzi pointed to the juggler in front of him and shouted excitedly: "Sister, look! That man breathes fire! ”

"And over here, there are people performing sword dances here!"

"Wow! It's amazing, it's amazing! ”

Xiao Niannian is also the first time to see so many people, the first time to see so many novel programs, her two eyes are dizzying, and she runs around with her brothers.

Shen Zhengwen and Li Rulan followed behind the children with a smile, and they didn't dare to take their eyes off for a moment.

There were so many people here that he was afraid that if none of them noticed, the children would run away and easily get lost in the crowd.

Xu Gongran also walked slowly behind the Shen family, followed by two officials, who were patrolling the streets.

He looked coldly at the bustle on the street, his expression unwavering, as if none of this had anything to do with him.

The bolt was on crutches, and he couldn't run around with his younger siblings, so he had to walk slowly by Xu Gongran's side.

Xu Gongran also sent a servant to follow the bolt to protect him, and he was touched and fell down.

"My lord! My lord! ”

At this moment, a servant found Xu Gongran.

"My lord! There are people in the Fulai Inn who maliciously set fire to and robbed, the situation cannot be forced, please go and see it yourself! ”

Xu Gongran's eyebrows were stained with cold frost, "How many people robbed you?" ”

Today's Shangyuan Festival, there is no curfew in Qingzhou City, and it is inevitable that there will be some unscrupulous people mixed in.

So he sent all the people of the yamen out, and there were officials patrolling back and forth in every street in the city, for fear that something would go wrong.

I didn't expect that at such a juncture, there were still people who dared to commit crimes against the wind.

"Back to my lord, there are only two of them, those two people are dressed as foreigners, and they have also held other guests hostage in the inn, we don't dare to act rashly, so we can only ask the adults to come over and have a look!"

Xu Gongran said coldly: "Lead the way in front, I want to see who dares to spread wild in my territory!" ”

Shen Zhengwen was not far away, and he was shocked when he heard their conversation.

Isn't the Fulai Inn the inn he was going to live in during the day?

He remembered that they were all ready to pay, and two more big men came and snatched their last two rooms.

If you think about it, the two big men at that time were dressed as foreigners, and the style of clothes they wore was completely different.

Could it be that the arson and robbery were those two big men?

The more Shen Zhengwen thought about it, the more he felt that it was possible, and he sighed in his heart.

If the shopkeeper hadn't driven them out without seeing the money at that time, leaving those two big men behind, maybe they wouldn't have suffered this catastrophe.

He shook his head, shook off those thoughts, and watched the children play intently.

"There's a charade ahead, go check it out!"

When he heard that there was a charade in front of him, he became a little interested, explained to Shen Zhengwen and walked in the direction of the anagram with his servant.

Shen Zhengwen saw that he had servants with him, so he was relieved to follow him.

Walking to another street, the bolt saw a high platform in front of him, and rows of lanterns hung on the high platform.

And there were a lot of people around the high platform, surrounded by many people, and it took him a lot of effort to squeeze in.

"Hey, have you heard? This time, there is a special anagram from Master Qu, and it is said that the person who answers correctly can become his disciple! ”

"Oh? Is it? Then I want to try, if I can become a disciple of Master Qu, then I will really wake up laughing in my dreams! ”

"You really think about beauty, who is Master Qu? That's the strongest master who has taught several new champions! I heard that some big families in Kyoto sent their children to us to beg Master Qu to accept them as disciples, but no matter how much money they paid, Master Qu was unmoved, and only accepted the disciples he wanted to accept. ”

"Yes, yes, yes, I know this, the Shen family of the four major families in Kyoto once sent Shen Xiaogongzi to study, but Master Qu refused the Shen family's request after just one look."

"And I heard that the imperial court personally sent Qin to invite Master Qu to join the court as an official, but the master also refused."

"I don't know what Master Qu thinks, if the court wants me to be an official, I can't wait to fly over immediately!"

"Hahahaha, you don't look at your bear-like appearance, and I still look for you to be an official, it's almost the same as being a eunuch!"

"Hahahaha......"

There was a burst of laughter around, all excitedly discussing the deeds of Master Qu.

The bolt sounded a little curious, who was this Qu Fuzi who was not moved by money and power.

He hadn't been out of Taoli Village since he was born, and he didn't know much about things in the city.

Unexpectedly, in Qingzhou City, there is a master of such a big background, he has to take a good look.

Tiezi was not interested in the literati's games of charades, and they watched intently in front of the juggling stall one by one, watching the Jianghu artists play monkeys, and they couldn't take their eyes off it.

Xiao Niannian stared thoughtfully at the monkey who was performing, and the monkey was forced to walk back and forth on a thin hemp rope, and also performed some difficult movements.

The little monkey was afraid to go forward, and the monkey trickster mercilessly threw the whip in his hand on the scrawny little monkey.

There were many people around, watching the monkeys make difficult movements, they felt very novel and fun, and applauded.

Xiao Niannian looked at it, but her eyes were filled with anger.

The monkey trickster regards monkey tricking as a craft for eating, and the monkey is his rice bowl, but he refuses to treat his rice bowl well.

The monkeys are skinny and skinny, with sparse hair and whip marks on their bodies, which look like they have been abused for a long time.

She originally felt that it was a very cruel thing to let animals perform.

For the sake of profit, human beings let animals leave their homes and give up their freedom, just to make customers laugh.

It would have been nice if she could have treated these animals well, but the animals brought them benefits, but they wanted the animals to be hungry and tortured, which made her really unbearable.

Xiao Niannian's eyes flashed with a sly light, and she quietly had an idea in her heart.

"It's on fire! It's on fire! ”

But at this moment, there was a sound of fire shouting in my ears.

When the people heard this, they scattered for fear of being affected, and the streets were suddenly in chaos.

Shen Zhengwen was also taken aback, and together with Li Rulan, he protected Xiao Niannian and the others by his side, and hid in a corner to avoid the chaotic flow of people.

He looked around and there was no sign of fire.

Fortunately, it seems that the source of the fire is not near them.

But when he turned his head, he saw a skyrocketing fire in the next street.

Shen Zhengwen suddenly remembered that the bolt had gone to guess the lantern riddle on the street next door.

Oh no, the bolt's leg is still injured, what if I can't run away near the fire?

What's more, in that chaotic situation, if someone bumps and falls, the consequences are unimaginable.

"Rulan, I'll go over there to find the bolt, you and the children are waiting for me here, remember not to run around!"

Shen Zhengwen admonished, went against the current in the crowd, and walked towards the next street with difficulty.
