"Stop." Li Shao pressed the man in sackcloth on his shoulder.

The man was held down by a strong force, paused, and turned around to look.

Originally, he thought that it was a man who had lost money who came to him, but when he turned around, he saw that it was a beautiful young lady.

"Hey, young lady, why are you calling me?" The man in sackcloth looked Li Shao up and down.

Judging from her clothes, she must be a lady from a wealthy family.

The purse in her hand just now belonged to this young lady.

Has she been discovered?

However, even if she was discovered, what would happen? Just a young lady, what can she do to him?

Li Fu followed Li Shao's figure, and Wu Liangye, who was on guard beside him, also hurried to catch up.

Seeing this, the other four guards quickly gathered towards Li Fu.

"Give it back to me." Li Shao's eyes were sharp, staring at the man in front of him.

"What do you want to give back?" The man in sackcloth looked at Li Shao with interest: "Young lady, what do you mean by this? Why, do you want to get to know each other?"

Li Shao tightened his fists at his side and frowned.

"Give me back my purse." Li Shao said again.

"Don't slander me with your red mouth and white teeth. What purse? What does it have to do with me?"

The man in sackcloth turned and was about to leave.

Such a young lady from a rich family may look good, but you must not deal with her. Once you alarm the Jinwu Guards and the Bad People patrolling the streets, it will be troublesome for you to get away.

Those people have always helped the nobles.

"Just now I passed by you, and you stole the purse on my waist. Give it back to me." Li Shao said seriously.

"What does your purse have to do with me? Are you sick? Go to the police."

After saying that, the man in sackcloth wanted to get away quickly.

How could Li Shao let him go? He grabbed his shoulder again.

"Let go..."

Before he finished speaking, Li Shao twisted his arm and held him back.

"Oh, it hurts." The man in sackcloth cried out in pain.

"Do you feel pain now? I've been out many times, and no one dared to steal my purse." Li Shao's face was sharp.

This made me lose face!

At this time, Li Fu came to Li Shao with a bunch of things.

"Wu Liangye, hold him down." Li Fu said.

"Yes." Wu Liangye responded and took the man in sackcloth from Li Shao.

"My purse is on him."

"Search him." Li Fu said, "If you find it, send it to the authorities. If you don't find it, we have wronged you. I will compensate you with ten strings of money."

"You said compensation, no!"

"In Chang'an City, my words are still counted. I am the King of Jingyang, and I don't need the ten strings of money. But if you stole the purse of my future princess, it would be wrong for you." Li Fu smiled kindly, and then signaled Wu Liangye with his eyes.

Wu Liangye didn't tolerate this man at all, and started to dig directly into his arms.

This time, it was not just a matter of a purse.

Grab a handful.

"My dear, this kid is a habitual offender." Wu Liangye looked at the man in hemp clothes under his command with a serious face.

The other four guards had already protected Li Fu and Li Shao.

"All the evidence is complete. Bring our stuff here. The rest, including the evidence and the people, should be sent to the authorities." Li Fu ordered.

"Yes." Wu Liangye responded.

"Your Highness, Your Highness, spare my life, spare me, I will never dare to do it again. It's all my fault that I was blind and didn't know that this young lady... this girl, is your future princess. I deserve to die."

The expression on Li Fu's face was very wonderful.

He was caught, regretted it, hit the wall, knew to turn, had snot in his mouth, knew to throw it away, and the child died and you came to feed him.

What a hammer.

Wu Liangye grabbed this person, and after telling Dong Jiu and the others a few words, he left for the time being.

After finding his own family nearby and handing the person over, Wu Liangye quickly returned to Li Fu's side.

At this time, Li Shao stayed by Li Fu's side.

"On the Lantern Festival, many thieves make a fortune by doing this job." Li Shao said indignantly: "Catching this person today can save the wallets of more people."

"It seems that you hang the purse around your waist to catch thieves." Li Fu laughed.

Li Shao blushed.

"I did a good thing."

She would not admit that she was careless and did not pay attention to Li Fu's reminder, which caused such a thing.

Catching thieves is called benefiting the people.

"Yes." Li Fu quickly responded: "Let's go."

Li Shao put away the purse and followed LiLi Fu was beside him.

Everyone walked towards the dock where the pleasure boat was docked.

After getting on the pleasure boat, they avoided the crowded crowd. Wu Liangye was also relieved. He and the other four guards also got on the pleasure boat and waited on the deck.

Li Fu and Li Shao went up to the second floor.

Xiao Tao was already waiting on the pleasure boat.

After they arrived, they asked if they wanted to serve wine and food.

"There are a lot of things prepared on the pleasure boat today. You can eat whatever you like." Li Fu said to Li Shao.

"Just some simple food. I just ate noodles and I'm not hungry now."

Li Fu nodded and winked at Xiao Tao.

The pleasure boat left the dock and slowly sailed towards the Qujiang Lake.

Away from the hustle and bustle of the shore, you can only hear the faint sound of orchestral music coming from other pleasure boats on the pool, which seems far and near.

The weather was good from New Year's Day to Lantern Festival, and there was no snow. There was a gust of evening breeze on Qujiang Lake. After coming out of the warm room, facing the evening breeze, people suddenly became much more sober.

At this time, the bustling and prosperous on the shore and the quiet and elegant in Qujiang Lake formed a strong contrast.

There were also many pleasure boats sailing on the lake, but they were much quieter than on the shore.

A small number of people just like to hide in silence to watch the prosperity.

Some people want to avoid the crowds on the shore and go to the lake to hide.

More often, many friends gather together, drink and have fun on the pleasure boat, write poems and paint, and seek elegance.

"The lights are starting to be lit on the shore." Li Fu pointed to the shore not far away and said.

Li Shao's sight followed Li Fu's finger and saw a group of people preparing.

The two stood together and watched the lights on the shore, as bright as day.

Amid the bustling crowd, the atmosphere reached a climax again.

The Lantern Festival is a rare opportunity for women to show their faces and go out. Therefore, whether they are among the crowd on the shore or on the pleasure boats on Qujiang Lake, women from ordinary families to high-ranking officials and wealthy families will all go out on this day.
