Chapter 199 Historical Materials

Due to the flooding, the ship had to dock for a while longer. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoThe reason is that the granary is afraid that the granary will be destroyed by the victims, so this ship has to be on standby, and it is very likely that the grain stored in the nearby rice warehouse will be sent to the capital again!

Of course, they didn't know about this matter at all, and they were still dining in the restaurant at this time.

"Childe, I just heard that Qingjiang has flooded again, and many people have died, what a sin!"

Wan Qianyang could only nod when he heard Li Chang's words.

"Let's eat first, let's not eat anything normal along the way, now we have the opportunity to eat more, you can go around for a while at night, don't go alone, this has just happened to the flood, and there will be some plagues in a few days, so we try to arrive in Hangzhou as early as possible." Wan Qiyang also gave everyone some warnings to prevent in advance, otherwise just the current conditions cannot guarantee who can survive the plague, Wan Qiyang knows that there was an outbreak of plague in some places before and after the flood, and many people have died! The government's solution is to isolate the whole family until they die.

"Childe, is it really going to be so fast? The plague is already circulating in some places. I hope that this plague will end soon, and now that no one in the government has taken the initiative to manage these things, Mingzhe will protect himself. "Of course, Li Chang knows some of the tricks of these official mansions, especially in the local government mansions, which are the real soil emperors.

"These are not what we have the ability to manage now, everyone will book the room after eating for a while, and then go out to play after knowing what room it is, so as not to scatter people by then." Wan Qiyang's words naturally everyone agrees.

"Childe, then how do you arrange it? Does Childe need us to follow you?! Wan Qiyang looked at Song Changqing and asked him, and naturally smiled and said: "Brother Song, I don't need anyone to accompany me, Sister Yilin needs someone to accompany me!" ”

Wan Qianyang's words made Irene blush, "Childe, you're talking nonsense again." ”

"Yes, yes, I'm talking nonsense again, so do you want me to say it seriously? Sister Irene. Well, just kidding. Li Chang came over, everyone went out for a while, I will give everyone the activity funds, one ticket per person, don't be too little, you can save it yourself if you don't use it, anyway, you can also leave a memory if you buy some souvenirs, saying that you have been here. Don't worry about me, this is in the city, there will be nothing wrong, and the burden is still in Brother Song's. There is nothing else, in short, everyone's safety first. After Wan Qiyang's words were finished, everyone was very happy, they had their own free time, but what they didn't expect was that Gongzi also sent money for everyone to play, and the heart was really indescribably comfortable, and they were all sighing in their hearts, Gongzi is really a good person!

"Li Chang will hand out the tickets to everyone first, and then go and set the room, and the double room will do. Finally, it's time for everyone to have free time, just gather early tomorrow morning! After Wan Qiyang finished speaking, he took the silver ticket to Li Chang, and then everyone said 'thank you, Gongzi' after getting the silver ticket.

"Brother Song, I'll go for a walk by myself, you really have to accompany Sister Irene more, hehe!" Wan Qiyang laughed at Song Changqing, but he said it in Song Changqing's ear, and others couldn't hear it. And Song Changqing just smiled and touched his nose unnaturally, which was a habitual action he was embarrassed about.

"I'll go see where the room is first, and you'll be separated by yourself in a moment." Wan Qiyang left the box first, and then after learning where the room for the night was, he strode towards the street.

At this time, it was still midday in the morning, that is, after 11 o'clock, and it was less than 12 o'clock, and it rained heavily for several days, so the water in the downstream rivers rose, which led to the bursting of the embankment and causing flooding, killing thousands of people and displacing countless civilians. This morning, the rain gradually subsided, and it was not until this time that it stopped, and the flow of people on the bluestone street gradually became more dense, and some small merchants and vendors also carried shelves on both sides of the street and began to cry out.

What makes Wan Qiyang feel a little strange is that this Huai'an City is still a dock city of considerable scale, and it is mainly a city formed by developed transportation.

For Wan Qiyang, although he has no pressure in terms of money now, even if he spends every day, he will not be short of money. But for a highly educated intellectual who graduated from a famous university, going to the gambling hall and the Qinglou still can't get over this cut in his own psychology, only for the study of this history, Wan Qiyang still wants to see how much difference between these introductions in the history books and the reality is.

Wan Qiyang was not very interested in this small merchant and hawker, and he also walked and watched casually, and at the same time, he also found that there were more young people like him who were dressed in regular clothes and dressed more gorgeously than him, and at the same time, young women could be seen playing together from time to time.

Wan Qiyang still remembers the description in an article "The Story of Red Plums" that a scholar in order to pursue his marriage, despite the dissuasion of his classmates, abandoned the scientific examination, and was completely indifferent to the imperial examination.

"Young and talented,

If you don't meet a beautiful woman, you want to cry in front of the flowers. Strongly check the spring heart, and the broken soul has been chased by the east wind.

will be the year of the weak crown, and it is still too late to complete the marriage covenant.

....................

Don't be in a hurry, wealth and glory are in your eyes. Why do these little things need to be bothered to care for the monarch to be like a butterfly, and they are of great use in the turbulent period.

Wait for the end with you, Hugh will take these three lights once the window is empty.

Brother doesn't know, the younger brother visits every day, and he never lets go of his whereabouts now, so he has to stop? ”

finally confided in his thoughts: I am not afraid of fame, but I am afraid that my marriage will be empty.

In such an era, there are already young people who pursue their own happiness, which also represents a deeper rebellion against traditional culture and society with secular etiquette. In the long feudal society, women have never been generally economically independent, so they have never been able to get rid of their dependence on men, so that they have become vassals of men. Reflected in the issue of marriage and love, it is manifested as the strong and active of men, and the weakness and passivity of women. Coupled with the long-term suppression and restraint of a set of moral laws formulated by a male-dominated society, women, especially women from official families with strict etiquette and laws, bear heavy spiritual shackles, and their nature to pursue free love and marriage is ruthlessly suffocated, and even the phenomenon of conscious alienation has appeared.

Wan Qiyang is also accustomed to the men and women who often walk together, but all this phenomenon is still a new thing in the society at that time, and it is only a phenomenon that can be born in a family that is solid and does not worry about food and clothing. From time to time, I will see the appearance of some monks, and I also remember some of the influence of religion on the social atmosphere of the Ming Dynasty in the middle and late Ming Dynasty.

With the development of the commodity economy, traditional religions have become more and more secular, and the sacred aura that has shrouded the religious world has gradually faded. Especially after the middle of the Ming Dynasty, the monks gradually became redundant. Among the Buddhists and monks, many of them have not obtained the legitimacy of the state, and most of them have been ordained privately, and the elements in the process are quite complicated, coupled with the different goals of becoming monks, and the temptation of monks caused by the prosperity of urban life after the development of commerce, it is inevitable that some people cannot bear the loneliness of the monastery and have the greed to enjoy the secular life. The attitude of scholars in the Ming Dynasty towards traditional religion also changed from blind obedience and silence of scholars in history to open ridicule and distrust. Influenced by this style of the world, the creation of legends first focused on revealing the abstinence of monks, nuns, etc., and the truth hidden deep in their hearts.
