"Fu Shang, this way, come this way."

Tang Jiao took Lu Changze's hand, walked through the crowd, stopped in front of a small stall selling chestnuts, and bought a small bag. Zixiang paid very consciously.

Lu Changze held it in his hand and walked slowly with her on the street. From time to time, he would buy some gadgets for her to play with.

"Jiao'er, this way." Lu Changze saw sweet potatoes for sale in front of him and pulled her over.

After buying it, he threw the things to Zixiang, and Lu Changze pulled Tang Jiao away slowly.

"Walk slowly, would you like some tea?"

"No."

Tang Jiao shook her head and looked at the bustling street in front of her. The fireworks in the sky lit up the silent night sky, making it colorful.

There were many people coming and going on the street. Tang Jiao heard a dog barking and looked up to see a woman walking towards her holding a puppy.

When the woman approached Tang Jiao, she looked at her strangely. The next second, the woman threw the puppy in her arms towards Tang Jiao.

The distance was too close, no one expected such a change.

Tang Jiao instinctively stretched out her hand and hit the dog's belly with her palm, causing the dog to fall not far away.

"Jiao'er."

Lu Changze hugged her into his arms, looking at the puppy that was barking and rushing towards him with cold eyes, and found that its pupils were blood red.

This dog is sick.

When people on the street saw the dog barking, they were so frightened that they ran away.

The dog had no chance to get close to Tang Jiao again, and was directly chopped to death by the Black Bamboo Yangjian. Blood spattered on the ground, and everyone hurriedly dispersed.

Tang Jiao looked into the dog's blood-red eyes and was shocked: "Is this dog crazy?"

"That's right." Lu Changze saw clearly just now that this was a sick dog: "Catch that woman back immediately."

"Yes."

Heitang took the guards and chased in the direction where the woman left just now.

When Wen Junyu in the attic saw that the plan failed, she was so angry that she smashed the cup next to her with her palm.

"If you're a fool, you won't find someone smarter."

It's fine now. The plan failed. It will be even harder to plot against Lu Changze again in the future.

The maid was trembling, and she knelt down and begged for mercy: "Master, please forgive me, but this slave deserves to die."

Wen Junyu said nothing, turned and left the private room with a cold face.

On the street not far away, Lu Changze pulled Tang Jiao to a teahouse and walked up to the private room on the second floor.

Sitting on the chair, he held her in his arms and carefully examined her hands and face: "Are there any scratches?"

"It's okay." Tang Jiao cooperated with him by raising her head and biting his Adam's apple: "I pushed it away."

Lu Changze's eyes suddenly darkened, and his voice was hoarse and tight: "Be careful."

He took the hot towel from Zixiang and wiped her face and hands to prevent anything from getting on her skin.

Tang Jiao leaned into his arms and said with a smile, "Who do you think it could be?"

Today's situation, a discerning person can see that someone did it deliberately.

"No matter who it is, I won't let it go."

If you dare to hurt his baby, you are seeking death.

Heitang came back soon, still holding the woman in his hand, and threw her like a rag in front of the two masters.

The woman fell to the ground and did not dare to cry out in pain. She knelt down and kowtowed desperately in front of Lu Changze: "Master Guan, Master Guan, I deserve to die. It's all because of my greed for money. I deserve to die. I have an eighty-year-old mother and a newborn grandchild. If you can’t go to jail, please be merciful and let me go like a dog.”

Seeing her making noise, Zixiang stepped forward and slapped her hard: "I'll kill you if you make any noise again. Answer whatever the master asks. If you say one more word, your bones will be broken."

The woman was so frightened that she no longer dared to say another word.

Lu Changze stared at her with cold eyes, and his tone was coercive: "Who asked you to do it?"

"I don't know, little wife." The woman shook her head and said in fear: "I love gambling. I owed a lot of debt in a gambling house. If I don't pay back, they said they will beat me to death. There happened to be a masked girl looking for me tonight. Me, give me one hundred taels, and say that as long as she does as she said and lets the dog she designated bite the noble man, the task will be completed. I don’t know that this young woman is a sick dog. If I knew, I wouldn’t dare to kill him. Move."

Tang Jiao sneered: "How dare you, for the sake of gambling, you might sell your son or daughter, let alone someone bringing money to the door. What characteristics do you see in that maid?"

The woman thought for a while and said hurriedly: "She has very fair skin, good eyes, a small forehead, and a melon-shaped face. Oh, by the way, one look at the clothes she is wearing shows that she comes from a wealthy family, and she has a hand on her hand." Jade bracelet. Nothing else. I really don’t know her.”

Lu Changze looked at Heitang: "Drag her to the government office and have her portrait drawn as a maid."

The woman's eyes lit up and she nodded hastily: "Okay, the government office is great, so they can't find me to ask for debts."

She is already in jail, but the other party can still go to jail to collect debts.

Tang Jiao looked at the woman being dragged away, feeling pity for her child. With such a mother, suffering would accompany her throughout her life.

After such an incident, Tang Jiao was not in the mood to go shopping anymore. She lay by the window and looked at the lively streets outside and the fireworks rising in the sky not far away.

Leaning back in Lu Changze's arms, Tang Jiao held his hand around her waist and said with a smile, "Let's go home and watch the New Year's Eve later."

"Ah."

Lu Changze saw Zhou Weiai walking not far away, gently held Tang Jiao's chin with his hand, turned her around, and kissed her lips.

The couple was so close that Tang Jiao naturally liked him. She sat with him by the window, playing and joking, but she didn't notice Zhou Wei'ai running past below.

Seeing Zhou Weiai leave, Lu Changze smiled and peeled chestnuts for her to eat.

They stayed on the street outside for an hour and a half. As the night got darker, there were still many people on the street, and the Salou teahouse was even full.

When they returned to the Zhenguo Palace, it was almost midnight. They returned to the Mingzhong Courtyard, took a bath and changed clothes, sat on the couch, ate snacks while admiring the moon, and slowly waited for the New Year's bell to ring.

Tang Jiao nestled in his arms and suddenly thought of something: "Tomorrow morning, are you going to go to the palace to pay your respects to His Majesty?"

"No need. On the second day of the Lunar New Year, the royal family comes to the palace to pay their respects. On the third day of the Lunar New Year, the ministers go to the palace. In fact, they just kowtow."

It's just a formality, Your Majesty will not let them eat.

Who doesn’t want to be reunited during the Chinese New Year?

Tang Jiao thought of her grandmother: "Grandma is the eldest princess, are we the second graders in junior high school?"

"Well, it's the second day of the Lunar New Year every year, and you don't enter the palace before dawn. You usually have breakfast and enter the palace at dawn. There will be no reward, unless there are special circumstances. Before the fifteenth day, Your Majesty will not You will be rewarded, and everyone will be lucky enough not to lose money."

As for the rewards for each house, His Majesty had people give them to each house early before New Year's Eve.

Tang Jiao understood and said with a smile: "Let's pay New Year's greetings to my grandfather on the first day of the new year."

When I was a child living in the capital, I would always pay New Year greetings to my grandfather on the first day of the new year.

Lu Changze didn't care: "Let's go together and ask for a big red envelope then."

"Yes, let's get off to a good start."

Tang Jiao thought it would be nice if her brother was here, so that she could drag him around to ask for red envelopes and make a lot of money from him.

The distant and pure bells resounded everywhere, and bigger and more fireworks rose into the sky, lighting up the entire capital.

Lu Changze kissed her lips, his face full of doting and affection.

"Jiao'er, Happy New Year."

"Fu Shang, Happy New Year."
