It’s settled

"It's just a lantern, why are so many people eager to try it?" The simple Bai Xue couldn't understand.

No matter how beautiful the lanterns are, they can't be eaten, so why bother surrounding this place with water?

Before Lan Xi could answer, a somewhat wealthy man beside them listened, wiped the sweat from his face and answered her questions.

"Little girl, you don't know something right now. Do you know what kind of lamp is hanging above it?"

Bai Xue raised her head and glanced at the gorgeous palace lantern hanging on the high platform from a distance, and hesitated: "Lantern?...A particularly beautiful lantern?"

She just thought that the tourists were really attracted by the appearance of the lantern, and they didn't want to go anywhere else yet.

After hearing this, Mr. Fugui said disgustedly.

"Is there nothing else? Look at that style, is it a lantern that ordinary people can use? This is a palace lantern, not just anyone can use it. The owner of this lantern must be a prince or aristocrat."

The atmosphere of the Jing Yan Dynasty was relatively open, but certain statuses were still regarded very seriously, just like the distinction between concubines and concubines. Under normal circumstances, no one would dare to violate the rule of law.

these practices.

"Look at the people here, apart from ordinary people, they are all scholars. They all want to show off their talents and be appreciated."

Bai Xue's eyes widened, it turned out that there was something like this in it.

After hearing this, Lan Xi also raised her head to take a closer look at the hexagonal palace lantern, and nodded secretly in her heart. No wonder she found the style of this lantern familiar. It turned out to be because such palace lanterns were often seen in the palace, but those did not have the special one in front of her.

It's just exquisite.

I wonder if the second sister is interested in this activity. Is she here?

"Miss, I see that there are really many people here, and I can't see anyone at all. Maybe Second Miss and the others have gone back to the restaurant to wait for us?" Bai Zhi advised her.

It is important to find a second lady, but it is more important to let your own lady settle down first.

"Will it?" Lan Xi didn't dare to leave.

She felt a faint sense of regret in her heart. Before they went out, they had agreed not to be separated at will, and she should not be impulsive in chasing the thief.

Bai Zhi nodded vigorously: "Yes, if the second lady can't find you, she will definitely go to the eldest son for help. She will definitely go back now."

"I won't say much else. I've covered all your sugar drinks tonight. Everyone here will have a share, while supplies last!"

As she said this, she took out a piece of silver from her purse and gave it to the young lady.

"Old rules, you can return the excess to me after you settle the account."

Finally, she took out another one and gave it to Liangzi, and explained to them with a smile: "This one is as a reward for your help in subduing the little thief!"

Liangzi frowned and was about to refuse, but Lan Xi waved his hand and continued: "This is not because I am the one who helped you. I hope that in the future you can continue to work hard while ensuring your own safety, and always be helpful to others.

happy!"

"Besides, good people should be rewarded!"

God knows how helpless, troubled and angry she felt when she saw those passers-by hiding from afar.

She knew they were not selfish, they just didn't want to get into trouble, but she still felt very disappointed.

If everyone could be less scrupulous and more brave, the world might be a better place.

"Okay! We will accept the money." The young lady took the money and carefully put it into her purse, "Don't worry, Fourth Miss, Liangzi and I will definitely live up to your expectations!"

"That's how happy it is! But you have to keep your money and touch it less, so as not to be targeted like me."

Because of the matter of catching a thief, a few people stopped here to watch, so Lan Xi reminded them.

She seriously suspected that it was because she and Huanhuan didn't pay attention when they were showing off that this little thief discovered that she had a huge sum of money and took the risk.

If the little thief on the ground knew what Lan Xi was thinking, he would definitely roll his eyes at her.

He hadn't seen such a fool for a long time, covering his waist all the way, as if he was afraid that others wouldn't know there was something hidden there.

She was being careful, but she deliberately made the sound of silver. It was precisely because he was tempted by the sound of a bag full of silver that he couldn't help but attack this closely guarded fool.

Lan Xi got angry and immediately chased after him, shouting to the tourists in front of the boy.

"Everyone, stop him quickly, he is a thief!"

She originally thought that the people in front of her would help to stop him, but what she didn't expect was that the passers-by all fled away after hearing that the boy was a thief.

Instead, it gave the boy a relatively loose path in the originally crowded crowd, allowing the latter to more easily distance himself from Lan Xi.

Lan Xi was a little angry, but knew that she couldn't blame these passers-by for protecting themselves wisely, so she could only hold back her anger and chase after the guards, refusing to admit defeat.

"Xier!"

Song Lanshu felt anxious to death when he saw his little sister moving away from him.

She couldn't catch up with her, so she could only hold on to Zhan Jin tightly, fearing that the last sister would also disappear.

"Sister Lanshu, sister Xi'er are surrounded by guards, they should be fine." Seeing Song Lanshu's tense expression, Zhan Jin could only comfort her first.

Song Lanshu shook her head. She knew that Zhan Jin had good intentions, but she also knew that what the other party deliberately did not mention in front of her was that the guards around Lan Xi had long since separated from her in pursuit of someone else, and there were no guards around him.

Liu Shuhuan crossed the crowded passers-by and returned to the two of them. Before he could stand still, he was held tightly by Song Lanshu. Later, he learned from Zhan Jin that Lan Xi had also followed the guards to catch the thief.

Liu Shuhuan was greatly puzzled. If she was the one who was stolen, it would be understandable for her to chase after the thief. But what's the use of a little dwarf like Lan Xi chasing after him?

Even if she catches up, can she still beat him?

The people here are so mixed, Lan Xi must not get lost.

"Second cousin, what should we do now?" Liu Shuhuan had no idea and could only ask Song Lanshu, who had deep frowns on his face and eyes full of worry.

Song Lanshu originally wanted the few palace guards around her to chase Lan Xi back, but considering that there were only three palace guards left around them, she was a weak woman, and there was a princess beside her, so the manpower was already scarce, so she only

Can send one person to chase the little sister.

After she ordered the guards, she summoned up her energy and said to Zhan Jin and Liu Shuhuan:

"Now that we don't have enough protection around us, we can only go back to the restaurant and tell my brother and the others that Xi'er has been separated, and then we will send someone to find her."

Liu Shuhuan and Zhan Jin were also afraid that something would happen to Lan Xi, and they did not dare to provoke Song Lanshu by saying anything about finding someone on their own, so the three of them followed the guards to the restaurant.
