Chapter 19: Rampage
The so-called Zhangtai, is the Qinglou, the Han Dynasty Qinglou industry is not as prosperous as the Tang and Song dynasties, and at this time there is no Qinglou this saying, because there is Zhangtai Street in Chang'an City of the former Han Dynasty, it is the place where the Qinglou is concentrated, so the people of the time will call the fireworks place with Zhangtai. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
And the Han Dynasty Qinglou is mainly based on singers, and there are not many people who are blatantly engaged in the skin and meat business, and when they arrive in the Later Han Dynasty, the capital is Luoyang, Confucianism prevails, and the Qinglou is greatly reduced.
However, whether it was in the previous life or the present life, whether it was Zhang Zhaohu or Zhang Liao, he had never been to the Qinglou, so when he passed by, Zhang Liao was very curious, his eyes glanced secretly, he didn't see anything clearly, and he didn't have the courage to go in.
"Shameless!" The little black dog first rebuked Zhang Liao with righteousness and awe, and then laughed again: "A dog boy with a thief's heart but no guts!" It's still a chick, the three palaces and six courtyards have a long way to go, hum, if you don't follow the poor path of cultivation, even if there are three palaces and six courtyards, you can be sucked dry! ”
The little black dog persuaded Zhang Liao to cultivate the Tao at every opportunity, although its current Taoism is not complete.
Zhang Liao turned a deaf ear to this, and with curiosity, he continued to walk along the street.
When he arrived at a wine shop, Zhang Liao felt a little hungry, so he handed over the elephant dragon to the wine shop to feed, and he took the little black dog into the building.
Entering the wine shop, a bartender greeted him with a smile and beckoned Zhang Liao to sit down, Zhang Liao looked at the wooden recipes hanging on the wall, and the first thing that caught his eye was a row of dog meat recipes, there were more than a dozen.
As the saying goes: "Dog meat rolls three times, the gods can't stand steady", the Han Dynasty since Gaozu Liu Bang, the favorite food is dog meat, the market heroes are mostly dog slaughterers, dog meat is one of the main meat, so dogs are born in this era is really tragic.
Zhang Liao glanced at the little black dog on his shoulder, and read the recipe: "Spiced dog jerky, dog towel soup, dog bitter soup, roasted dog ribs, roasted dog liver......
The little black dog's face turned black all of a sudden: "Niang Xipi, boy, Hugh wants to eat dog meat!" ”
Zhang Liao smiled: "Didn't you eat dog meat when you were a Taoist priest before?" ”
"This ......" The little black dog choked, and then bared his teeth and grinned: "Anyway, Poor Dao is disgusted when he smells dog meat now!" ”
Zhang Liao couldn't help laughing, which made the bartender on the side look sideways and feel strange.
He didn't care about himself, so he picked up a few dishes.
When the food came up, seeing those rough meals, Zhang Liao frowned and tasted two bites, suddenly lost his appetite, and wailed: "Heaven, earth, the emperor and queen of heaven are on the earth, is this for dogs?" ”
The little black dog immediately said: "This is for pigs, you kid hurry up and eat it." ”
Zhang Liao didn't bother to pay attention to the little black dog, and sighed, he also learned about the diet of the Han Dynasty from Zhang Liao's original memory, which was really not good, and it seemed that life would not be easy in the future.
In the Han Dynasty, food was not as abundant as in later generations, ordinary people only ate two meals a day, and only princes and nobles could eat three meals a day.
Zhang Liao was very unaccustomed, and the food and vegetables of the Han Dynasty were also very poor, tomatoes, potatoes, green peppers, sweet potatoes, onions, peppers, corn, carrots, spinach, lettuce...... None of that!
What is often eaten is sunflower vegetables, leeks, shallots, rape, radish, cabbage, green onions, ginger and garlic, and sunflower is the main one, followed by leeks, and the poem "Qingqing Garden in the sunflower" is said to be winter sunflower, not sunflower. The staple food is basically rice made of millet, wheat, and rice, and the dry food for the march is to dry the cooked rice in the sun and carry it, or fried beans with tempeh sauce, which is very sad.
The range of meat is very wide, not only eat poultry and livestock, but also hunt a large number of wild animals such as geese and cranes, cattle, sheep, pigs, deer, rabbits, cranes, geese, chickens, ducks, fish are eaten, but mainly mutton, pork, chicken and dog meat, and are all proper luxuries, only nobles and old people eat meat, the price of pork is ten times that of dog meat, ordinary people simply can't afford to eat. There are a lot of meat practices, there are soup, broiled, wet, steamed, preserved, preserved, cured, drunk, etc., as well as sashimi, which is very popular, but unfortunately it is not in line with Zhang Liao's appetite, you know, Zhang Liao is also famous for his mouth in later generations.
The only thing that made him cry with joy was that he actually saw tofu, Zhang Liao immediately ate a plate of tofu and drank some wine, the degree was not high, sweet, and the taste was much better than that high-concentration liquor.
Zhang Liao originally had a good amount of alcohol, and in his previous life, he was known as a thousand cups of non-drunk tyrants, but he drank no more than one pot at this time, and his eyes were a little foggy.
At this time, it was almost late autumn, Zhang Liao looked at the fallen leaves outside the window, and looked at the unfamiliar environment on all sides, the strange crowd, the unfamiliar clothes, and muttered in his mouth: "The rolling Yangtze River is passing away, and the waves are sweeping away the heroes......"
After getting Dong Zhuo, he can be regarded as really standing in this world and surviving.
Zhang Liao only felt that that life was getting farther and farther away from him, Old Man Ge, the goddess of history, the leaders who often scolded him, and the parents he had never seen were all gone, and those reinforced concrete were gradually blurred and became memories to precipitate.
"Life, life ......" Zhang Liao finished drinking a pot and asked for another pot. But fortunately, his character has always been a bit of a big road, and the inexplicable melancholy comes and goes quickly, and a few pots of turbid wine go down, all of which should have been walked on the Nai He Bridge, and he didn't drink the bowl of Meng Po soup.
Bidding farewell to the past and starting his life again, the battlefield, officialdom, and the expected troubled times, he has to learn to adapt to the rules of this era, or to subvert the rules of this era domineeringly!
"Hey! Life, life ......" The little black dog on the side was also infected by the atmosphere, sighed, jumped on the table, grabbed a glass of wine and tasted it, but forgot that it was no longer the Zuo Ci of the year, how could the palm-sized body withstand drunkenness, muttered "How could it be", and fainted on the table with a plop.
Zhang Liao couldn't help but laugh when he saw it.
It wasn't until he was slightly drunk that Zhang Liao picked up the little black dog, looked up to the sky and laughed out of the wine shop, when he went out, he was slightly drunk on a whim, and poured two pots of wine for Xianglong, seeing Xianglong's happy appearance, he couldn't help laughing.
When he went to the wine shop this time, he had already consumed seventy-seven eighty-eight of the money in his pocket, and while slandering Dong Zhuo in his heart that he didn't give him any money or anything, he rode the elephant dragon who was also drunk and excited, all the way south.
The little black dog was still drunk and didn't wake up, and the three drunks staggered all the way, which was quite interesting.
As the capital division of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the layout of Luoyang is not like the structure of the outer city of the palace and the inner city of the palace, the city of Luoyang only has the inner city of the imperial palace, and outside the palace is the residential households and the market spread to the surroundings, and there is no city wall to block and protect, but to the north of the mountain, the west of Zhangfanggou, the east of the Yang Canal and the south of Luoshui as a barrier.
Luoyang City is also the most prosperous city in the Eastern Han Dynasty, with a population of hundreds of thousands, but in the past two months, after great changes, Dong Zhuo's Qiang Hu soldiers entered Beijing after the military discipline was scattered, looting everywhere, resulting in few pedestrians on the road, and most of the people hid at home, lest they accidentally get into trouble.
Zhang Liao went all the way to the south, it was the late autumn season at this time, the leaves fell, although there was a bright sun in the sky, but it was not hot, suitable for walking.
After a short distance of Luoshui, we reached a fork in the road, and were about to turn west to go to the West Garden, when I suddenly heard a rapid sound of horses' hooves from the east.
He turned his head to look, but saw that in the distance on the east side of the fork, about dozens of horsemen were speeding towards a carriage, and in the middle of the group of knights was a four-rider chariot.
There are four horses in front of the car, and there are painted patent leather on both sides of the car, and there is a high cover for the sun, which is quite magnificent.
Zhang Liao couldn't see the appearance of the person riding the car, but he knew that the four-car Xuan car was second only to the six-car royal car of the Son of Heaven in the Han Dynasty, and only the three dukes, Jiuqing, liehou and other dignitaries could ride.
There is no doubt that the identity of the person riding in this Xuan car must not be simple, and it must be the likes of the powerful people in Luoyang.
A group of cavalry and four-chariots raced on the avenue, rampage all the way, as if no one was around, arrogant and domineering.
A few pedestrians scattered along the road were so frightened that they fled in fright, but the group of knights and the people in the car ignored them.
Zhang Liao has always been unaccustomed to this kind of arrogant behavior like a mad dog coming out of the den for a long time, but this phenomenon can be seen everywhere no matter what era and place, not to mention that this era is a privileged era, he just can't get used to it and can't change anything.
