The Spring Festival is finally here.

This Spring Festival, Li Rupei's overall feeling is relatively comfortable, the Iron Blood Army has been conquered several times, all of them have won, especially the defeat of the Yellow Nest, which has established a lot of prestige for the Iron Blood Army, and at the same time the Iron Blood Army is in the process of growing, the total number of troops is close to 60,000 people, after several expeditions, a large amount of grain and grass has been obtained, and it can still be maintained for a period of time, and there is no need to increase the burden of the people. Some of them are stationed in Quanzhou, some are stationed in Bazhou, and some are stationed in Lizhou, so in this case, no matter which side of the attack from Shannan West Road, the iron-blooded army can resist it at the first time.

After returning to Liangzhou, Ma Haoxuan once again mentioned the matter of Yu Yurong and Yu Lianhan, but after the big victories in Luoyang and Quanzhou, the matter of the two girls is not so important for the time being, but Ma Haoxuan's implication is that he still reminds Li Rupei that he must consider the matter of the wedding, so that everyone will have the backbone.

Liu Yunzhang, Ma Haoxuan, Yu Chenghui and Tan Mingxiao and other family members, according to Li Rupei's requirements, all received their respective places of service, to achieve a family reunion, Li Rupei's move, in the eyes of many people is incredible, according to the rules of the Tang Dynasty, family members are not able to follow officials to the place of office, in addition to avoiding suspicion, it is also a measure to prevent official corruption, but Li Rupei does not see it this way, officials have been separated from their families for a long time, which will inevitably lead to tension in family relations, It will also lead to officials looking for flowers and willows outside, and even taking concubines, all of which require expenses, and officials do not have so much silver, so they naturally have to stretch out their hands, so it is not forcing officials to be corrupt.

It should be said that Shannan West Road is slowly undergoing great changes, and this change can be seen with the naked eye, and it can be felt, which makes everyone feel surprised.

In fact, such a change, in Li Rupei's expectation, is like a terminally ill person who begins to use medicine to recuperate, and the right medicine is prescribed, and the effect is naturally obvious.

On the second day of the first lunar month, early in the morning, Li Rupei decided to go to the streets and alleys of Liangzhou to take a look and feel the atmosphere of the Spring Festival.

This time, he only took a few people such as Xie Yuxin and Qin Erhei, and his own soldiers followed the guards not far behind him.

The atmosphere of the Spring Festival in Liangzhou City, beyond Li Rupei's expectations, in the Chinese New Year's Eve, he once took Yu Yurong and Yu Lianhan to look around, the street was full of people, bustling, unusually lively, so that Li Rupei had a feeling of rushing to the market, which seemed to be somewhat inconsistent with the atmosphere of the Spring Festival, after careful thinking, he understood that the original era, not a thousand years later, everyone believed in the rule that parents are not far away, few people go out, unless they are going out to be officials, even those who do business, most of them are local, Therefore, during the Spring Festival, family reunion means that everyone is together, go out for a walk, purchase a lot of things, and enjoy the atmosphere of the New Year.

Li Rupei went straight to a restaurant.

Entering the restaurant, the lively atmosphere gave Li Rupei a sense of intimacy.

There are a lot of people in the lobby, most of them are ordering some wine and food, consuming time here, the restaurant in Liangzhou City, the business during the Spring Festival is very good, the so-called first day of the new year does not go out, the second day of the first year worships the father-in-law, many people follow the old rules at the same time, more time is to come out to play.

The temple fair in the eastern part of the city is the most lively place.

After Li Rupei and the others hurriedly ate, they left the restaurant and rushed to the temple fair in the east of the city.

Xie Yuxin reminded Li Rupei that there were too many people at the temple fair in the east of the city, and whether there were some problems in terms of security, Li Rupei's answer was very simple, if he, the festival envoy of Shannan West Road, had to think about guarding against the people below all the time, then there was really a big problem, indicating that the public security situation in Liangzhou was very bad, and the people had great grievances in their hearts.

Another scene of the temple fair, juggling, snacks everywhere, there are not a lot of children shuttling among them, holding a lot of snacks in their hands, sucking their fingers, looking at many snacks, it seems that they will never know satisfaction, adults are full of smiles, wandering around.

The road was unusually crowded, and no one noticed Li Rupei and his party.

The sound of words around kept coming, Li Rupei listened very carefully, his purpose was to listen to what the people said, at this time, the people would tell some truth in the chat.

Xie Yuxin, Qin Erhei and the others naturally understood the meaning, and listened attentively to the words around them.

Most of what they heard were short discussions from parents, and there were a few discussions, but they were all superficial, and no one said anything in depth, but on the whole, they felt that the common people were satisfied with their current lives, and they were even more satisfied with the government.

It should be said that Li Rupei's policy is actually inclined to the common people, and while restraining the power and interests of the powerful and powerful, he also attaches importance to agriculture and pays attention to favoring the common people, so that the common people can survive.

At the end of the temple fair, there were fewer people, and a fortune teller caught Li Rupei's attention.

This fortune teller is wearing a hat and can't see his face clearly, but with his feelings and temperament, he can know that the fortune teller must be an old man with crane hair and a childish face, and the front of the old man's stall is relatively deserted, and few people are willing to go to fortune telling.

Li Rupei walked to the booth.

"I want to do the math, but I don't know how much it costs."

"Childe wants to calculate the future, or to calculate the fortune, the price is clearly marked, and one or two lines of silver are counted once."

Li Rupei gasped, one or two pieces of silver told a fortune, no wonder this fortune teller's business is so light, you must know that one or two pieces of silver is already a lot of wealth for ordinary people.

Li Rupei took out one or two lines of silver and put them on the stall.

"The old gentleman can calculate it as he wants."

The fortune teller was not polite, brushed the stall casually, and accepted a silver tael or two.

"Childe, please stretch out your left hand."

The fortune teller carefully looked at Li Rupei's left hand, closed his eyes and was silent for a while.

"Childe is an extraordinary person, the so-called heavenly opportunity cannot be revealed, a certain send Childe a poem, please think about it yourself."

"A grain of millet is hidden in the universe, a number of heavy flowers can be seen outside the building, the Holy Sect can get rid of foolishness, abide by the old rules, everywhere pay attention to all knowledge, one guest and one thing have many truths, send a certain horseshoe to the imperial capital, the sky is vast and the world is peaceful."

After the fortune teller finished reading the poem, he laughed and got up, ignoring the stall in front of him, and floated away.

The stunned Li Rupei had not yet reacted, and Xie Yuxin, who was behind him, was even more pale, he basically understood this poem, and the fortune teller pointed out that Li Rupei was going to ascend to the supreme throne in the future.

Almost reflexively, Li Rupei stood up, followed behind the fortune teller, and quickly caught up.

A large group of people also followed behind Li Rupei and chased after him.

The fortune teller didn't go far, as if he was waiting for Li Rupei, and after seeing Li Rupei coming, the fortune teller took off his hat and showed his true face.

Li Rupei paused for a moment, and then folded his hands.

"The master went to Liangzhou, the kid didn't know it, and he couldn't greet him, so please forgive the master."

"The prince doesn't have to be polite, the old man is a person outside the world, traveling all over the world, to Liangzhou to see, the old man is expected to be the prince will come to the market, so he is waiting for the prince here, after many years, the prince finally raised his eyebrows, the old man is very pleased, this is also the wish of the old man, the old man's wish has been, no longer worry, but there is one thing please worry about the prince, the Famen Temple is destined to have a catastrophe, can save the Famen Temple in the fire and water, it must be the prince, he also asked the prince to see the past feelings, to save the Famen Temple."

"The master commanded, and the boy wrote it down."

Watching the fortune teller drift away, Li Rupei did not continue to chase.

Xie Yuxin, Qin Erhei and the others who came up were very strange, and Xie Yuxin couldn't help but speak.

"Lord Wang, my subordinates see that this fortune teller is a high-ranking monk, I don't know why he came to Liangzhou to tell fortunes."

Li Rupei shook his head slightly.

"This is the former abbot of the Famen Temple Tongyuan Master, is the real Taoist monk, the master came to Liangzhou, not to tell fortunes, but to see a certain one, now the master's wish to understand, since then travel all over the world, do not know the end."

Xie Yuxin's eyes widened, the former abbot of Famen Temple, that was not an ordinary person, rushed to Liangzhou, it seems that Famen Temple and Li Rupei have a lot of origins.

"Xie Yuxin, Qin Erhei, don't mention today's events to anyone, you must keep them secret."

Master Tongyuan rushed to Liangzhou and said such a thing, Li Rupei understood the meaning, the inheritance of the throne is very sacred, and it needs to be supported by public opinion, Master Tongyuan's identity is extraordinary, and any words he says will attract the attention of others, presumably in the future, Master Tongyuan will talk about these things on different occasions, that is, to lay the foundation for him Li Rupei, in order to be able to ascend the throne in the future.

However, Li Rupei believes that it is not the best time at present, don't show your mentality for the time being, so as not to become the target of public criticism, as long as the people around you understand.

As Master Tongyuan, he can do such a thing, Li Rupei knows very well that this is not only his personal reason, but also has a certain relationship with his father, according to the inheritance of the throne, it should have been his father to inherit the unification, but unfortunately it was secretly operated by the eunuchs, and his father died because of it.

It is precisely because of Master Tongyuan's words that Li Rupei has enough confidence, in terms of strength, he controls the iron-blooded army, and no one dares to underestimate it, in terms of identity, he will ascend the throne in the future, and people in the world will not have too much to talk about.

However, this also made him understand that all preparations must be accelerated, and the Tang Dynasty is in danger, and if he can't use iron-blooded means, he is afraid that he will soon fall into chaos.
