The Spring Festival is approaching, and Chang'an Street is full of people coming and going every day.

Families with a solid family have taken to the street to have a carnival shopping festival, fresh fruits and vegetables, dried fruit snacks, chickens, ducks, fish and meat are piled up on their own ox carts without money, and their faces are full of joyful satisfaction.

Those from poor families shrank and wandered between the stalls. Always hold the savings in your arms for a whole year. After wandering for a long time, he also stomped his feet fiercely, walked into the market as if he was going to the execution ground, bought a little preserved fruit ash soup for his children, pulled half a new cloth, and wrapped a dumpling pork belly. After spending all the money on his body, he went home satisfied.

The dignitaries and nobles who walked on the road after the next dynasty no longer hurried their usual steps and talked about state affairs. is also like ordinary people, pulling homely things, and walking leisurely towards home.

The Wuhou officials patrolling the streets also seemed to be much kinder than usual, and there was always a hint of joy on their faces.

Even the beggars squatting on the side of the road changed into clean clothes that they had begged for from nowhere, and with their dirty faces up, they said some auspicious words to passers-by and begged for some money. If Ye Xiaotian saw this scene, it is estimated that he would not hesitate to return to his old business and join this team that can quickly accumulate wealth.

No matter who you are, you are happy in this strong festive atmosphere. Forgetting the hard work and sorrow of the year, I am full of hope and happiness, waiting to welcome a new year.

In the Taiji Palace at the end of Suzaku Street, groups of palace people are busy changing new lamps and pasting Spring Festival couplets, which brings a lively atmosphere to the usually rigorous and solemn palace.

In a study room behind the Taiji Hall, a young man in his thirties sat behind a desk and quietly commented on a large number of recitals in front of him. It was warm in the study, and the young man was just wearing a thin bright yellow casual suit, and he had no shoes on his feet, but just a pair of snow-white foot clothes, and from time to time he got up and paced back and forth on the smooth and bright floor.

The young man's face was calm, and there was no joy or anger. Only occasionally frowning as if thinking about something. When the young man raised his head and looked into the distance, the light projected in his eyes was chilling, it was a pair of wise eyes that seemed to be able to see through everything in the world, with the majesty and calmness of being in the top position for a long time.

This person is the Holy Emperor Li Shimin, who led the Tang Dynasty to the tide of prosperity for the first time in history. At this time, Li Shimin was still very young, in his thirties, in the prime of life, and his physical strength and intelligence were at their peak. wholeheartedly wants to wash away his notoriety of killing his brother by leading the people to prosperity and strength.

After approving a book, Li Shimin put the folds aside neatly, took a sip of tea, and did not rest, but opened the book again and read it.

After a while, Li Shimin sighed lightly, his face was much softer, and he asked his companion who was standing below: "The boiling tuberculosis that was rumored some time ago has been solved?" ”

The person standing below immediately lowered his head and replied: "Back to Your Majesty's words, listening to the rumors of people outside the palace, it is indeed controlled, although it has not been cured, but no one is infected with the disease." It is the merit of His Majesty. "At the end, I don't forget to make a sycophant.

Anyone will never refuse good words, and the emperor is the same, especially an emperor who is wholeheartedly pursuing the goal of the Holy Emperor, naturally hopes to get more affirmation.

The smile on Li Shimin's face was obviously a little more, but he still waved his hand modestly. After staring at the fold for a moment, he praised: "Mr. Sun is really a medical skill, almost a miracle. There is always a problem to solve! ”

The companion heard this echo and said: "Your Majesty doesn't know anything, now the patients are all in Sun Lao Immortal, but I heard from people outside that this time the tuberculosis is under control, but it is from the hand of a young man." Mr. Sun also had to be reminded by the young man that he had something to do with this disease. ”

Hearing this, Li Shimin also raised his head in surprise and asked, "A teenager?" It can be known that the young man in Chang'an City has such a ability. ”

"Your Majesty's education is meritorious! According to rumors outside, this young man was a lay disciple of the famous Daoyue Master in Chang'an City, and he only offered this good idea when he went to support with the monks in the temple! ”

Li Shimin listened to it and said casually: "Daoyue is old and bald...... Ahem, the disciple of the old mage? ”

In the third year of Zhenguan, because of the monk Faya, Emperor Taizong had a prejudice against monks, so he generally did not have much good impression of monks.

"Exactly!"

Li Shimin pondered for a moment before he said as if he was enduring nausea: "There is a reward for merit, but lay disciples don't need too much to think about." He gave him a thousand gold, encouraged him to learn art, and saved more of my Tang people in the future. ”

This sentence is very easy to understand, and the general meaning is, well, well done, give a bonus of 1,000 yuan and praise it verbally, and don't think about the rest, who asked you to be a monk? Lao Tzu just looks at you unhappy. It can be seen that the Holy Emperor is also a human being, and it is possible that he is still a person with a small heart.

The palace people also bowed down to the promise.

……

Ye Xiaotian is still a decadent life of sleeping until three bars in the sun every day before getting up. After getting up, I ate and drank enough, and nestled under the sun again, squinting and napping poetry and the distance. The money that cheated Peek Ji also counted more and more money, and there was a new harvest every day.

Recently, he invented mutton shabu, and then, Peekie's money bag seems to have become his inexhaustible treasure chest.

Ye Xiaotian's goal is not high, and within a year, it will be good to upgrade to thousands of households.

It's early afternoon. Ye Xiaotian was lazy and lazy lying on a big sunny stone and dozing off. Suddenly, the footsteps of Peek Ki that could bring up a slight earthquake were shouted Ye Xiaotian from afar.

The dazed Ye Xiaotian muttered dissatisfiedly, turned over and didn't bother to pay attention, the sun was just right, how could he abandon such a beautiful weather for money?

"Don't bother me, if I don't start work today, I won't give you any money!"

Peep Ji hurriedly waved his hand, and said breathlessly: "Senior brother, someone is here in the temple!" ”

"It's my business!"

"Dressed in official uniforms!"

"It's my business!"

"From the palace!"

"It's my business!"

"I'm looking for you!"

"Shut me up...... Poof-oops! Ye Xiaotian rolled down directly from the stone, "! Looking for me? Could it be that the matter has been exposed? Ye Xiaotian, who was in a daze, was a little weak at the moment, if he remembered correctly, he seemed to have attacked some seemingly great characters in order to escape the pursuit of the hooligan group. Was it found out?

Ye Xiaotian, whose head was running rapidly, immediately took Peeki's hand and asked, "Peeji, will you shave your head?" ”

"Huh?"

"Quick! Shave my head! ”

……

When Ye Xiaotian appeared in front of everyone with a bald head and a monk's robe, many people were stunned. Especially the compassion in his eyes, he is really unbeatable.

"The poor monk argues, I've seen a companion!" The calm and calm posture cannot be overstated.

"You are Ye Xiaotian?" The companion's tone was cold.

"The poor monk has been a monk for many years, and he has never stepped out of the temple gate for half a step. The common name has long been forgotten, and I don't know the companion ......"

Peeping Ji, who was not far behind him, secretly said to himself, you pretend, I can score 101 points.

The companion didn't bother to wait any longer for Ye Xiaotian to speak, and read the cumbersome and lengthy instructions directly.

Until a money bag smashed in front of Ye Xiaotian, Ye Xiaotian was still in a state of confusion.

Ye Xiaotian stupidly stood up to the team of palace people who were far away,, why did you come to give out bonuses earlier!

For a long time, Ye Xiaotian was still motionless as a petrified.

Peeping Ji slowly moved in front of Ye Xiaotian and gently pushed Ye Xiaotian.

Ye Xiaotian suddenly howled and cried.

Speculative asked, "It's just a bounty from His Majesty, why is Senior Brother so excited?" ”

"I'm excited that you're a big-headed ghost, and the three thousand green silks that are elegant and chic in labor and capital are gone! I don't have a face to see people! It's not alive! ”
