Chapter 529

The Lantern Festival was the last major festival before the Spring Festival. Ye Xiaotian was the County Magistrate and was in charge of the security of the county. Three days in advance, he asked Zhang Dianshi to arrange for people to spread out on the streets and alleys to maintain law and order.

A remote place like Gourd County had yet to set up a fire fighting shop. During the Lantern Festival, fireworks were released and most of the houses in the city were low wooden houses. Many people even had firewood in their yards. In order to prevent a fire, Ye Xiaotian imitated the fire fighting shop in the capital and asked the patrol office to send people to help.

Ye Xiaotian asked the patrol office to form teams of ten people and prepared grappling hooks, shovels, water wheels and other equipment. They were to wait near the busiest main streets. At the same time, he sent people up the mountain to observe the movements in the city from above. If there were any changes, they would use the lights as a signal to guide the public security and fire fighting team.

The noise drove away the night and the lights covered the night. As the night grew darker, the common people gradually went to the streets to watch the show and enjoy the lanterns. They opened all the forbidden places and dared to be lively. Ye Xiaotian also went down the mountain with his family and leisurely walked to the busiest street.

Aborigines living in exile, families of scholars, female musicians, famous courtesans and opera women, young women of the common people, young catamites, roaming young men, idlers, servants, servants, all kinds of people, all kinds of people, all kinds of people, all kinds of people, all kinds of people, all kinds of people, all kinds of people, all kinds of people were gathered here. Yao Yao was naturally very happy with such a scene. Sister Do Ni rarely saw such a lively scene, and her eyes were filled with curiosity.

Qian Qingqing was staying at the Ye Family's house and was going out with them tonight. She and Duo Ni held Yaoyao's hand and followed behind Ye Xiaotian. After walking for a while, they suddenly saw three to five young women wearing flowery dresses and holding fans talking and laughing as they walked to a house. They all stretched out their hands to touch the door nail. Her eyes flashed and she immediately came up with a plan.

She had the intention to get closer to Ye Xiaotian, but she was worried that Dini and Yao Yao wouldn't leave each other's side, so she couldn't make a move. She smiled and whispered to Dini, "Sister Dini, look at those girls touching the door nails. Don't you want to go and touch them?"

Duo Ni looked at the strange behavior of the young women and asked: "Sister, why are they touching the door nail?"

Qian Qingqing replied with a smile: "Touching the door nail is a Han custom. It is said that touching the door nail can help one to have children."

Carrying on the family line was the most important thing in a woman's life. It was related to her status and future in her husband's family. If she was infertile, it would be more serious than losing her chastity. Duo Ni and Ye Xiaotian had made love many times but still did not get pregnant. She was secretly very anxious. Now that she heard Qian Qingqing's words, she was immediately tempted.

However, their group was too big. Ye Xiaotian, Hua Yunfei, Mao Wenzhi and the three women. There were also twelve bodyguards and four maids. The group was too big. Cross Street was crowded with people. It was as if all the people in the city were squeezed here. With so many people, every step was very slow. How could they still touch the door nail?

Ye Xiaotian strolled and after a while, he felt that Duo Ni and the other women were moving slowly. He looked back and saw them looking around. He did not know what they were looking at. Ye Xiaotian said: "The Shangyuan festival only happens once a year. You can go wherever you want. If you can't find me, go back to the residence late at night."

While saying that, he ordered four Imperial Bodyguards to accompany them. As soon as Duo Ni heard Qian Qingqing's words, it was as if grass had sprouted in her heart; all she could think of was' to touch the doornail, to give birth to a child '. It's just that this reason was not suitable for her to say out loud. As soon as she heard this, she could not help but was greatly delighted. Hastily she said to Qian Qingqing and Yao Yao, "Let's go, we'll have fun ourselves."

Qian Qingqing smiled and said: "Duo Ni meimei, you take care of Yaoyao and have fun. I like peace and quiet. I will accompany Daren."

Qian Qingqing was not an unmarried woman. She was the wife of Ye Xiaotian's colleague. Therefore, Duo Ni did not think too much about it. Without her around, she was a little less shy. She quickly agreed and pulled Yaoyao away. Yaoyao also felt that it was too boring to follow Ye Xiaotian. She happily followed Duo Ni.

Half of the four maids followed them. Qian Qingqing walked with her long legs. She walked shoulder to shoulder with Ye Xiaotian, talking and laughing.

"Your servant thought that Daren would stay in the residence to admire the lanterns on this festival. I didn't expect Daren to like the liveliness of the world."

Qian Qingqing looked at Ye Xiaotian. Her eyes were watery. The light from the lanterns on the street reflected on her face. She was really beautiful. This kind of expression and tone was different from Qian Qingqing in the past. However, it was the Shangyuan festival. It was hard to say that she was happy. Ye Xiaotian did not think too much about it. He replied: "Admiring the lanterns on the Shangyuan festival is not only admiring the lanterns. There is also such a lively scene. This is something that cannot be felt at home."

As Ye Xiaotian said this, his eyes glanced at the two young girls in front of him. They had good figures and good looks. Their smiles were even more charming. They were already good looking. Under the light, they looked even more beautiful. It was a pity that it was still cold. They wore straight striped pants under their skirts. He could not see their round and tender thighs.

"Oh … Your Servant understands. So this is the scenery!" Qian Qingqing followed his gaze and came to a sudden realization. Then, he said in a slightly teasing tone.

Ye Xiaotian hurriedly averted his gaze and looked at Qian Qingqing. Seeing the faint smile on her face, he chuckled and said, "Ahem! Well, men are 'lustful'. Men are 'lustful'. Haha … "

Qian Qingqing pursed her lips and laughed. "Although those two girls are beautiful, they are not as good as Sister Duo Ni. Daren, you sent Duo Ni away. But you are peeping at other girls. This … Is this called 'the flower in the house is not fragrant … What about the wild flower?'"

Qian Qingqing's voice became softer and softer. In the end, she was almost whispering into Ye Xiaotian's ear. She was tall. Not only was her figure curvaceous, her pair of slender legs were especially attractive. She had a perfect figure with a golden ratio. It was easy for her to whisper into Ye Xiaotian's ear. There was no need for her to posture.

With a beauty by his ear, her breath smelling like orchids. It was the Shangyuan festival. It should have been a very romantic scene, right? However, Ye Xiaotian felt a little uncomfortable. It wasn't just because Qian Qingqing was close to him, but also because it sounded a little funny for a married woman to say something like that.

Ye Xiaotian couldn't avoid her. He only turned his head to look at her. He saw Qian Qingqing smiling like a flower. Her charming eyes were so wet that they looked like they were about to drip water. Ye Xiaotian's heart thumped. "Amitabha. It really wasn't an illusion! This red apricot, it can't be that she wants to cheat, right? "

…

"The Shangyuan festival is here. Night falls quietly. On the straight and lively crossroads, red men and green women appear. This is the season for clandestine love!"

Tax Ambassador Li Yuncong used a magnetic and deep tone. He recited like a philosopher. Su Xuntian pursed his lips. He said disdainfully, "Nonsense!"

Li Yuncong smiled. He pointed at the bustling crowd in front of him. He said slowly, "Why do so many great scholars often use the classic 'Among the Mulberry Trees and Pu Shang' to warn them to cultivate their moral character during the Shangyuan festival? It's not without reason …"

Su Xuntian's shifty eyes glanced at a few rather good-looking women in front of him. They laughed as they passed by. He rubbed his chin and said, "Is that so?"

Li Yuncong said, "That's natural. It's rare for women to walk the streets so casually. It's hard for slaves to come out. At this time, it's a great opportunity for men to steal and seduce. Look, men and women walk together. Their shoes are intertwined. As long as they see eye to eye, it's not difficult to take off the robe and smell the fragrance. "

Su Xuntian let out a long sigh. "If that's the case, why haven't I met a beauty who threw herself at me after walking for so long?" Su Xuntian glanced at Li Yuncong. "Could it be because I'm accompanied by a rotten old man like you? Go, go, go. Hurry up and move further away. Don't hinder me from stealing. "

Li Yuncong said, "Bah! Don't blame everything on me. It's obvious that you don't have the talent and looks to attract a beauty's heart. Look at that young man in front. He's followed by five or six attendants. Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, that graceful woman still threw herself at him. "

"Where? Where? Let me see! "

Su Xuntian's eyes lit up as if he was injected with chicken blood. Li Yuncong pointed forward and said with a smile, "Look over there …"

Li Yuncong's voice stopped abruptly. Only his right hand was left. It was like a withered branch of an old tree hanging in the air. His beard trembled slightly in the night wind. After a moment of shock, Su Xuntian was the first to react. He hurriedly pulled his sleeve. The two turned around and fled like thieves.

Li Yuncong had just pointed and was shocked to discover that the so-called young man who was hugging the beauty was actually the county's second master, Magistrate Ye. If it was just that, then it wouldn't be a big deal. But they immediately discovered that the beauty who struggled out of Magistrate Ye's embrace, who was as shy as a peach blossom washed by rain, was actually Magistrate Zhao's wife. What kind of situation was this!?

There's an ancient saying, "Lust is the most evil." In this era, official adultery was not a moral issue, but a legal issue. Moreover, official adultery was an additional crime. It was considered "rape" and could be "confiscated the tools used to commit the crime". Zhu Yuanzhang had done this before. Unexpectedly, the two of them ran into such a scene. How could they not be terrified? They quickly slipped away as if they had never seen it.

Qian Qingqing struggled out of Ye Xiaotian's embrace. Her face was red and beautiful. She shyly lowered her eyes and said to Ye Xiaotian, "This servant slipped and almost lost my balance. Fortunately, daren helped me."

Ye Xiaotian chuckled. "Haha, how could I watch Sister-in-law fall? It's only right for me to help you. There's no need for you to be so polite! " As Ye Xiaotian said this, his fingers gently twirled a few times in his sleeves. That soft and creamy feeling was memorable. This woman was not only beautiful, her figure was enchanting, and she was also born with good skin.

But … he didn't help Madam Qian. Instead, it was Madam Qian's soft and fragrant body that fell into his embrace. There was no snow on the ground, so how could she slip? How could the person walking beside him fall into his embrace? This was clearly a blatant seduction. This was interesting …

Was this Madam Qian husband and wife not on good terms? Was she looking for a lover, or did she have some other purpose? If she had some other purpose, then what was it for? In an instant, many doubts flashed through Ye Xiaotian's mind. At this time, there was a sudden clamor in front of them. Ye Xiaotian raised his head in surprise …
