Chapter 47 Talking

The most well-informed place in the world is naturally Chang'an.

When the war broke out in Yingzhou, the local people fleeing, fur and medicinal merchants, and the three religions and other religions who ran around the world jointly spread the information of the war. However, the spreading speed was limited, and the people who spread the news did not see what happened on the battlefield with their own eyes. No one could risk their lives to run to the bloody battlefield to be a war correspondent because of gossip.

There is another way to spread such things, that is, Dibao. Things that are spread through Dibao are much more reliable.

But the diary report was that Chang'an first received the memorial and then sent military and political information from the Daming Palace, so Chang'an was far from Yingzhou but may have learned the important matters of current affairs first than many places in the middle.

First, the people who were sending good news shouted and roared past Tianjie in a high-profile manner. The people who happened to see could only vaguely know that Du Xian won in Yingzhou.

As for the process, we have to wait for the palace gate to copy. Some screened internal government newspapers will be posted directly at the palace gate and made public. Such good things that have won a battle cannot be posted and hope that everyone in the world will know it?

After the first time the palace gate is copied, the whole Chang'an City will know about it in a few days, and then it will be spread to various places through the post road.

From the literati to the common people, peddlers and pawns, there is not much difference in their mood to pay attention to new things. Otherwise, one day I would sit down in a teahouse or a tea stall on the side of the road and chat, and you wouldn't know anything about what everyone knows and you wouldn't be seen like a monkey.

However, the ways for each class to get information are different.

When the screened mansion newspaper was posted on the palace wall, naturally, those who knew literacy came forward to read and copy it; but many people in the city were illiterate at all, and many people were not active in the north of the city. Chang'an was too big to everyone come to see it from afar. It is okay for the people who were promoted to pay attention to current affairs, but the most important thing in their hearts is the current matter of supporting their families, so there are many people who understand the situation through oral retelling.

The Yingzhou victory is a good artistic material and a popular communication model: speaking and quarrel.

There are always many programs in places where people eat, drink and have fun in wine shops and teahouses, and there are always many programs that make everyone drink and have fun. The performances are diverse, including animal dramas, puppet dramas, live dramas, singing and dancing, and stories called talking. Later, on this basis, they developed into programs such as storytelling and history.

At this time, Chang'an City had not experienced wars for many years. No matter how fascinated the palace and the temple were fighting, there was never any incident of being robbed by riots.

The Jin Dynasty replaced the Tang Dynasty when the national strength of the Tang Dynasty was still strong, and there was no experience of being visited by others several times in history.

Over time, all walks of life in the city have flourished. In addition to commercial transactions, service industries such as wineries and teahouses in various buildings and streets have blossomed everywhere.

Chang'an has a dense population in the north and sparse south. The most dense and prosperous area is the east and west cities in the northern part of Chang'an and Wannian counties, especially the most prosperous near Dong City. Because the Ming Palace is in the east, the richest is nothing more than the surrounding nobles and nobles, court ministers, and resources are naturally concentrated here, especially around Dong City, with crowds of people and noisy every day.

A street in Xuanpingfang that comes from Fangmen is full of wine and tea inns and almost no private houses are seen. One of the teahouses has a sign. Dushan thunder strikes the Dongyi soldiers, which is about the beginning and end of the Battle of Yingzhou.

The main entrance hall was crowded, and there were still no seats standing until the door.

This kind of storytelling is different from the real events in this kind of place. In order to make it more exciting, it is also fabricated. Anyway, it is probably just that entertainment, and no one seriously pursues it.

Today’s speaker is talking about the Dushan battle against lightning strikes against enemy soldiers. You can tell the general content by looking at the brand.

It was originally a big battle, but once it was processed, it was like a mythical story. It said that Du Xian got the magic sword and summoned Lei Gong to use magic in front of the formation. The enemy chief Li Fuhuo ordered the wizard to fight. Witchcraft was an evil way, and Lei Gong was a god. Since ancient times, evil has not defeated justice. "Wow!’A lightning flash came down, and the black smoke in the magic circle dispersed, and the people and horses left in a panic.Looking at the Hu wizard again, he was kneeling down and begging for mercy...

As soon as he talked about this, a playboy wearing a silk shirt in the front row interrupted impolitely: We have only heard of the Thunder God, when did we see it with our own eyes?If the formation could really summon wind and rain, the imperial court would have conferred a few gods, but why should we still conquer so many soldiers?

When the audience heard that the words were reasonable, they started to make excuses and agreed.

The speaker on the wooden platform argued: In the past, when Zhuge Kongming, Zhuge of the Three Kingdoms, sacrificed the sky to the red cirque and borrowed the east wind, now, General Du, is in charge of Dushan to invite Lei Gong. It is the same thing as heaven helps, and it is another thing to fight against war. How can we confuse it!

The playboy's viewer said again: When General Manager Du was still in Chang'an, I saw his ceremonial guard on the street. Needless to say, Feng Yi was on the horse, but no matter how you look at it, he was an ordinary person. He had never seen three heads and six arms. Isn't it strange that he suddenly called the wind and rain when he arrived at Dushan?

Everyone likes to make something happen on such occasions, and it is lively. When people on the stage see someone teasing the stage, their expressions have become very ugly.

At this moment, a middle-aged man wearing a long moon-white dress swept off the paper fan with a bang and said with a look: What kind of lightning strike is lightning, it is a cannon, a newly created weapon, just like a crossbow or a chariot.The barbarians thought it was understandable that it was thunder and lightning from the sky. Those people had little knowledge and didn't know the powerful things in the Celestial Empire. But if there was someone at the foot of the emperor, wouldn't it be a joke?

It turned out to be Mr. Xu, but Mr. Xu who lives in Anyifang North Street?It's amazing, they are the ministers of the current dynasty... the ones who are guests!Some sharp-eyed people in the crowd recognized them and shouted.

Mr. Xu blew his goatee, and it was rare that so many people praised him as a big shot, so he proudly revealed a little more information: Have you heard of gunpowder?A Taoist priest was refining at home, but accidentally exploded and collapsed the roof. The Taoist priest ran fast and was blown to death.This thing explodes the earth and rocks. What if it is filled with the iron cannon point and explodes?The cannon balls are definitely much more powerful than throwing stones when throwing out the car.

Everyone heard it fresh and no longer cared about the embarrassing words on the stage.

Just then, someone shouted at the door: Do you want to know why you want to fight Yingzhou today?The twists and turns are little known. If you want to know, come to the newly opened Xianming Building and listen to it... Before the words were finished, a few men rushed out of the hall. The man outside ran away. A man had to curse and even tell the rules in business. It was too unreasonable!Where can anyone run to the door of someone to bark?!

This sound really worked. The people in the teahouse here heard that the teacher had no official's interest in the audience, and their interest suddenly decreased. They immediately left some idle people and ran to the newly opened side of the street.

Some people were curious and sent their servants to inquire first, and they said: There are more people in the teahouse there, saying that the current emperor sent General Du to the Yingzhou for nothing else, but to rob the beauty of Goguryeo.

A man laughed and said: Who can make up randomly? It's just a gimmick.The servant said: But that gentleman said with serenely, otherwise why would so many people listen?

So the people from this teahouse left.

People don’t think it’s a big deal to talk about the emperor in the market. Just like the ministers scolding the emperor, they just need to grasp a standard. Besides, if they don’t write books and have written evidence, the impact will not be great, and the county magistrate can’t control it so leniently.

If the administrative efficiency is really that high and you will be arrested if you say the wrong thing, then sometimes there are fake monks and Taoists in the market who use talismans to deceive the public. Wouldn't they go in after showing up?

The husband of Xianminglou really didn't grasp the standard well today and explained it in detail.

This guy is indeed a little bit informed. Even the emperor wanted to issue an order to send a virgin to Silla, which was not issued, and then the envoys from the old subordinates of Goguryeo came to Chang'an to present beautiful women as if they were real. The people had nowhere to know these secrets.

But even if you say this in public, you don’t have to be too nervous. As long as no one sues you, who will care about this nostalgic business?

Now it’s not a daytime holiday. Most of the people sitting in the teahouse listening to stories are idle people who have nothing to do. Whoever is full and goes to deal with the government causes that irrelevant trouble? Anyway, some people dare to say it, just listen to it as fun.

Unexpectedly, just as the gentleman was chanting, two men in green clothes and narrow robes suddenly came in. They didn't wear hats and their hair was just tied with wooden hairpins, which looked simple and neat.

The two walked straight to the side of the platform. One of them interrupted the teacher and said calmly: The one on the platform, our master invites you to have a tea, please give me a look.

The other one was not so polite and said with a cold face: Let's go well and we'll talk.

The speaker's face had changed, and he realized that it was not good, so he blurted out: Are you from the yamen?

There was no movement in this one-on-one answer, but the tea hall suddenly became quiet. The spectators heard that the people in the yamen were so arrogant that they dared not go out and sat down without moving, and the scene became a little weird.

However, those who came to drink tea and listen to the stories were not particularly nervous. Even if something happened, it had nothing to do with them. The founding of the Jin Dynasty always claimed to be benevolent and had never happened to arrest people without asking about it.

The cold-faced man patted the sign hanging on his belt and said: "Inner factory, don't be too slow if you see it clearly, so as not to disturb irrelevant people."

The gentleman was stunned for a moment and couldn't resist any more, so he had to get off the stage obediently.

The two young men led the way in front and the other behind, letting the gentleman walk in the middle and took the person away lightly.

The guests in the hall sighed when they saw someone leaving. After a while, the waiter ran in and said, "Dear guests, please come again next day, and our shopkeeper has also been taken away. We have to close first today. Sorry, I'll pay a gift first."

When everyone saw something happened, they stood up and went out. They just felt that what happened just now was very strange. The government was doing business with great fanfare. Since they dared to arrest people, the teahouse would also have to be sealed.

But now, I took away the person, and it seemed as if nothing had happened.
