The Shishi girl who performed on behalf of Fu Shou'an appeared on stage.
Countless people present came here just for Miss Shishi, whose fame was the highest tonight.
Bai Song and Qing'er have already squeezed onto the stage of Mobai Qianzhuang. At this moment, how can Bai Song have the heart to watch the performance of Shishi Girl?
I saw that all the workers didn’t know that the disaster was coming, but now they were still in joy and were carefully counting the number of lanterns they had obtained.
Bai Song's face was filled with sorrow and he interrupted everyone: "Everyone, stop!"
The voice attracted everyone's attention, and Mo Zhu gathered around happily: "Master, why did you come back? Our performance is over. Miss Mingyue really lived up to expectations. Look, how many lanterns we got! We took a cursory look, and there are still
No other restaurant has as many lanterns as ours! I guess apart from Fu Shou'an, who is performing now, our bank should be the second best that night!"
Second place is already an incredible achievement. In the future, not only will Mobai Bank become more famous, Mingyue Girl and Yingyue Tower will also rise to a higher level.
The Madam of Yingyue Tower was also very happy and thanked Bai Song repeatedly, saying that it was thanks to Mr. Bai's promotion.
Mingyue was also full of joy and saluted Bai Song and his party: "Mr. Bai, Mingyue has finally lived up to her expectations."
Everyone was congratulating Bai Song, thinking that this was something worthy of celebration.
But everyone had spoken and saw that Bai Song's expression was solemn and there was no trace of joy.
Mo Zhu frowned: "My boss, what's wrong with you?"
Bai Song took a deep breath, glanced at Lu Yao who was drinking alone next to him, turned around and lowered his voice and said: "Don't worry about it here. The bank will be closed from tomorrow. It's best for all the clerks to leave Chang'an and go to the villages and towns near Chang'an.
Take shelter and wait for my notice."
"The bank is out of business?"
Hearing this, everyone was stunned. They all looked at Bai Song with puzzled expressions. They thought to themselves that they had finally made a name for themselves at the lantern festival. Shouldn't they devote themselves to work tomorrow and work hard to promote banknotes? Shouldn't they go out of business?
What is the statement?
Bai Song looked at Mingyue, then turned to the madam and said, "It's best for your Yingyue Building to close down for a while, so as not to harm other people in the building."
"Ah? Mr. Bai, what are you talking about? Going out of business? Why are you going out of business?"
The madam was puzzled.
At this time, Qing'er glared and pointed at Lu Yao: "The lyrics he wrote have caused us big trouble! All of us will be implicated!"
"Big trouble?"
Everyone was even more puzzled. Mr. Lu’s words had won so many votes for Qianzhuang. He must be the hero of Qianzhuang. How could he cause such big trouble?
Just when everyone was puzzled, Lu Yao suddenly looked up to the sky and laughed: "Hahahaha... Why is God jealous of talents?! That's it! Many of the mediocre words and bad works before are not popular! What I, Lu Yao, have done can attract everyone.
Trouble, it can be seen that I, Lu Yao, have more talents than them! Don’t you want to risk your life? I will give you a ride. I, Lu Yao, have no worries and no fear. I am just blocked by soldiers and covered by water and soil. You are like this
Worry is just a fear of standing tall and handsome!"
"Leave him alone!" Bai Song glanced at the other party coldly, not wanting to say more, "Everyone listened to my instructions and left the lantern festival immediately and left the city overnight. Miss Mingyue, you'd better listen to my advice and leave early.
Don’t go back to Chang’an until the matter is unclear.”
Everyone was a little puzzled, but they had never seen the owner so serious, and they felt a little uneasy, so they packed up some things they brought from the shop and prepared to leave.
At this moment, everyone's eyes were attracted by the graceful dance of the girl Shishi on the stage.
Under the stage, in the direction directly opposite Mobai Bank.
"Sister, what are you looking at if you don't look at the stage?" Xiao Changle raised his head and followed his sister's gaze.
Xiao Changle noticed that his sister had been looking at the opposite side for a long time. Among the gang of guys and women opposite, there was only one well-dressed handsome young man.
Xiao Changle had never seen his sister look at someone so absorbedly, and his heart moved. No matter who was on the other side, he shouted in that direction: "Bai Song!"
The little girl's voice was crisp and penetrating, and it reached Bai Song's ears smoothly in the noisy environment.
Bai Song felt someone calling him and looked left and right, but couldn't tell the direction of the sound.
Xiao Changle was even more happy when he saw the young master's reaction. He knew it was the subordinate, and quickly shouted louder: "Bai Song, this way! Bai Song! Bai Song!"
"Oh, you're going to die!" Li Xiangnan realized that the little girl next to him was going crazy, and then he came to his senses and quickly blocked her mouth.
But it was too late now. Xiao Changle roared several times, and Bai Song finally found the direction from which the sound came. He and Princess Runan looked at each other from a distance of more than ten meters.
No one thought that after saying goodbye in Xiaoting, they would meet in this way.
When the two people's eyes met, their thoughts naturally returned to that embarrassing little pavilion.
There is a stage between them, so they cannot communicate directly. They can only exchange a glance and a gentle nod, that's all.
Xiao Changle broke away from his sister's hand and said anxiously: "Isn't that the servant under the skirt? Sister, why are you still standing there? Let's go and have a look. It's too far away, and I can't even see what it looks like!"
"Okay, stop making trouble."
"Sister, we're here to have fun anyway, so what's the point of just watching? You can go over and talk."
Li Xiangnan looked in the direction of Bai Song, feeling a little moved and hesitant to go there.
When he was hesitating, Li Xiangnan's eyes changed, and there were a few more officials from the Ministry of Punishment facing Bai Song, who put handcuffs on him without any explanation!
Okay, why did an official from the Ministry of Punishment find Bai Song?
Li Xiangnan felt that something was wrong, so he pulled his sister and said in a deep voice: "Let's go over and have a look."
Xiao Changle didn't notice the changes on the other side and jumped for joy.
But as soon as the two of them took a step forward, the guards behind them stopped them in front of the two princesses.
"The two princesses, the emperor has returned to the palace first and ordered his subordinates to escort the two princesses back."
"Ah?" Xiao Changle frowned, "So early? The lantern festival isn't over yet! I don't care, I still want to play!"
The accompanying father-in-law quickly explained with a smile: "Your Royal Highness, you can't be willful today. Just now Long Yan was angry and in a bad mood. We should go back obediently to reassure the emperor."
"Father is angry?"
"No! The jade ring was smashed to pieces!"
"Well... then... let's stop playing and go back to the palace, sister."
Although Xiao Changle was young, he still understood priorities and looked at his sister with some disappointment.
Li Xiangnan's face was full of sadness. She didn't know what happened to Bai Song, what he had done, but she had to leave at this time.
…
On the other side, Bai Song did not expect the officers and soldiers to arrive so quickly!
Less than two quarters of an hour had passed, and officials from the Ministry of Punishment had already arrived. It was Mr. Liu's team that accompanied the case yesterday. Lu Xiaochen was also among them. He still took a pen and carefully recorded what he saw and heard, but with a straight face.
, dare not confront Bai Song.
In the capital, various cases are handled by various departments. Cases that cannot be handled by each department are reported to Chang'an and Chang'an. Only cases that cannot be solved by Chang'an will alert the Ministry of Punishment.
Now the official of the Ministry of Justice took out the handcuffs, and the guys around realized that the boss was not joking, and he was really in trouble this time!
The clerks at the bank were all honest people. They had never even entered the county government office in their entire lives. They were suddenly caught by people from the Criminal Department. They were so frightened that they lost their souls. Before they could say anything, they were already paralyzed on the ground.
.
Yesterday, Bai Song helped Mr. Liu resolve the case and resolved the difficulties caused by the Turks for Mr. Liu, which was considered a favor.
But today, Mr. Liu had a selfless expression, as if he didn't know Bai Song at all. Standing in front of Bai Song, he asked coldly: "Isn't the water melody song you just played in the title track of Mo Bai Qianzhuang?"
Bai Song knew that it would be difficult to escape today, so he responded in a deep voice: "Yes."
"The song was sung by the girl from Yingyue Tower?"
Miss Mingyue nodded worriedly.
"Are you the madam of Yingyue Tower?"
"I...I..." the madam hesitated and became nervous.
"Who wrote the lyrics?"
"It's me!" Lu Yao raised his hands high and admitted openly.
Mr. Liu snorted coldly: "Ha! Now let's get everyone together and bring them back to the Criminal Department for trial!"
"Oh, it's unfair! I'm a woman, but I didn't do anything!" The madam of Yingyue Tower immediately started crying and fell to the ground rolling around.
On a normal day, these officials from the Ministry of Justice might still be successful because of their reputation, but what happened today is not a trivial matter. It is about angering the emperor. Who is kidding you?
Immediately, two official servants came up and started shouting greetings until the madam lost her voice.
The officer began to handcuff everyone. At this moment, Mo Zhu couldn't hold it in any longer. He tightened the bamboo in his hand, fearing that he might start a fight with the officer.
Bai Song quickly winked at her, telling her not to cause trouble, and then winked at Qing'er, telling her not to use the power of the Mo family to conflict with the court.
Although this matter is serious, they are all implicated, which does not mean they will definitely be found guilty.
Besides, there is also a master Yu Shinan, and Bai Song also has the identity of Xingchen Khan. Even if he is caught, there will be other forces in the capital to help him. Unless it is absolutely necessary, he cannot be labeled as a rebel.
Thief's hat.
Qing'er understood what Bai Song meant. When she saw the official coming to handcuff herself, she cooperated honestly without causing any trouble.
"Take people away!"
Mr. Liu greeted, and a group of thirty or forty people began to return to the Criminal Department.
The performance of the lantern festival is not over yet, and not many people care about these people leaving.
On the way to the Punishment Department, Bai Song gradually stopped hearing the sound of the lantern show, and vaguely heard someone saying that Miss Shishi had won the highest number of votes tonight, and everyone was cheering.
Some people are still talking about the poem written by Lu Yao.
As expected, this poem made some literati feel indignant, and they privately discussed the faults of the imperial court and detailed various crimes committed by the Turks.
At this time, Lu Xiaochen pretended to record it, quietly walked to Bai Song, lowered his voice and said: "Don't worry, I have informed Mr. Yu in advance."
