The most well-informed place in the world is naturally Chang'an. As soon as there was a war in Yingzhou, the local fleeing people, fur and medicinal herb merchants, and the three sects and nine streams who ran the rivers and lakes jointly spread the news of the war to all sides, but the speed of such diffusion was limited, and the people who spread the rumors did not see what was happening on the battlefield with their own eyes, so no one could risk death because of gossip to run to the bloody battlefield to be war reporters. There is another way for this kind of thing to spread, that is, Di Bao, and it is much more reliable to pass through Guò Di Bao. However, the Di newspaper was the military and political information sent by Chang'an from the Daming Palace first, so Chang'an was far away from Yingzhou, but it may have been informed of current affairs before many places on the way.

First of all, the people who carried the good news shouted and roared through the "Heavenly Street", and the people who happened to see it could only vaguely know that Du Xian had won the battle in Yingzhou. As for the process, we have to wait for the "palace gate copy", and some of the contents of the internal organ newspapers of the court will be directly posted at the palace gate and made public.

As soon as the palace gate is copied out, this matter will be known to the whole Chang'an City in a few days, and then it will be spread to all places through the guò post road. From the scholars to the common people, there is not much difference in the mood of paying attention to new things, otherwise one day you will sit down with three friends and four friends in a teahouse or a roadside tea stall and have a casual conversation, you don't know anything about what everyone knows, and you must not be seen as a monkey.

However, the different levels of the population have different access to information. As soon as the screened newspaper was pasted on the palace wall, naturally literate people came forward to read and transcribe it; But many small people in the market are illiterate at all, and many people are not active in the north of the city, and Chang'an is too big for everyone to come from afar to see, Shengdou small people can pay attention to current affairs, and the most important thing in their hearts is the little thing to support their families at the moment, so there are many people who understand the situation in the way of oral relay. Yingzhou Dajie has martial arts fights and celebrities in the story, which is a good art material, and there is also a popular mode of communication: talking and quyi. There will always be many programs for everyone to drink and have fun, and there are various ways of performance, including animal plays, puppet shows, real people's plays, singing and dancing, and there are also programs called "talking" on this basis, which later developed into programs such as storytelling and history.

At this time, Chang'an City had not experienced war for many years, no matter how intoxicated the palace and temples were, there was never a thing of being looted by the rebels. The Jin Dynasty replaced the Tang Dynasty when 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, and in addition to commercial transactions, service industries such as wine shops and teahouses have blossomed everywhere.

The population of Chang'an is dense in the north and sparse in the south, and the most dense and prosperous area is the east and west cities of Chang'an and Wannian counties in the north, especially near the east city, which is the most prosperous, because the Daming Palace is in the east, and the richest is nothing more than the surrounding nobles and court ministers, and the resources are naturally concentrated here, especially around the east city, which is crowded and crowded every day. Xuanpingfang, a street from the door of the square is full of wine and tea inns, and there are almost no houses, and one of the teahouses hangs a sign "Dushan Lei Splits Dongyi Soldiers", which is about the beginning and end of the battle of Yingzhou.

The main foyer was overcrowded, and there were people who didn't have seats standing until the door. This kind of local storytelling is naturally different from the real events, and in order to make it more exciting, it is also processed and fictionalized, anyway, it's just entertainment, and no one is seriously pursuing it.

Today's speaker is talking about the part of the lightning attack on the enemy soldiers in the battle of Dushan, and the content is probably just known by looking at the brand. It was originally a big war, but once it was processed, it was like a mythical story, saying that Du Xian got the sword and summoned Lei Gong to cast a spell in front of the battle, and the enemy chief Li was inactive and made the wizard fight, "Witchcraft is a crooked way of evil, Lei Gong is a god, and evil has been invincible since ancient times, 'Wow!' A flash of lightning fell, and the black smoke in the circle dispersed, and the men and horses were frightened away. Look at the Hu sorcerer again, he is already kneeling and begging for mercy......"

As soon as he said this, a man in a silk shirt in the front row interrupted very rudely: "We have only heard of the Thunder Gong Rain God, when have we seen it with our own eyes?" If you can really call the wind and rain before the battle, the court will seal a few immortals, why do you recruit so many soldiers? ”

As soon as the officials heard that what they said was reasonable, they began to coax in agreement. The speaker on the wooden platform argued: "In the past, there was Zhuge Kongming of the Three Kingdoms and Chibi to sacrifice to the sky to borrow the east wind, and now there is Du Governor Dushan to invite Lei Gong, it is one thing for heaven to help, and it is another thing to fight against each other, how can it be mixed up!" ”

Then the gentleman said: "When Mr. Du was still in Chang'an, I saw his guard of honor on the street, not to mention the wind and demeanor on horse, but how to look at it is also an ordinary person, I have never seen three heads and six arms, and when I arrived in Dushan, I suddenly called for wind and rain, isn't it strange?" ”

On this occasion, everyone likes to make something lively and lively, and the people on the stage have become very ugly when they see someone pulling the stage. At this moment, a middle-aged man wearing a moon-white robe shook off the paper fan with a "snap", and said: "What lightning and thunder, that's a cannon, a newly created weapon and a bird, which is a weapon like a ballista and a cart." It is understandable that the barbarian people thought that it was thunder and lightning from the sky, and those people who had little knowledge knew the powerful things of the Celestial Empire, but there were still people at the feet of the Son of Heaven who said this, wouldn't they be laughing and generous? ”

"It turned out to be Mr. Xu, but Mr. Xu, who lives in Anyifang North Street? It's amazing, that's the minister of the court...... The people who are guests under the door! "There were sharp-eyed people in the crowd who shouted when they recognized it.

Mr. Xu blew his goatee, and it was rare for so many people to praise him as a big man, so he proudly revealed a little more information: "Have you heard of gunpowder?" There was a Taoist priest who was refining at home, and the roof collapsed due to an accidental explosion, and the Taoist priest was blown up half to death when he ran fast. As soon as this thing explodes and rocks fly, what will happen if it fills in the iron cannon point and explodes? The cannon pill flying out must be much more powerful than throwing a car and throwing a stone. ”

Everyone listened freshly, and they didn't care about the awkward talking gentleman on the stage. At this time, someone at the door shouted at the top of his voice: "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 to listen...... "Before the words were finished, a few men rushed out of the hall, and the person outside ran away, and a man had to scold, "You have to talk about a rule when doing business, it's too unusual!" How can anyone run to the door of someone's house and bark?! ”

This sound really played a role, and the people in the teahouse listened to the gentleman who spoke, and none of them had any official goods, and their interest plummeted, and they immediately left some idlers to run to the newly opened side of the street. Some people were curious and sent a little maid over to inquire first, and came back and said: "There are more people in the teahouse over there, saying that the current emperor sent the governor of Du to fight Yingzhou for nothing else, but to rob the beauties of Goguryeo." ”

One person laughed and said, "Who wouldn't make it up, it's just a gimmick." The little guy said: "But what Mr. said is clear-sighted, otherwise why do so many people listen?" ”

So the people in this teahouse walked a little more. The emperor is said in the market, and people don't think it's a big deal, just like the ministers scolding the emperor, as long as you grasp a scale, and not to mention that it is not a book that has words as evidence, and the general impact is not great, and the county order can't be so wide for 10,000 years. If the administrative efficiency is really so high, and if you say the wrong thing, you will be arrested, then there are sometimes fake monks in the market who use talisman water to deceive people and bewitch the public, so don't you go in without showing your face?

The gentleman from the Xianming Building really didn't grasp the scale well today, and he spoke in too much detail. This guy is indeed a little unexpected, and even the emperor wants to issue an edict to Silla to send virgins, which has not been issued, and then the envoy of the old Goguryeo department went to Chang'an to offer beautiful women as if it were true, and these secret things are not known to the common people.

But even if you say this in public, don't be too nervous, as long as no one reports it, who cares about it? Now it's daytime and it's not a holiday.,Most of the people who sit in the teahouse and listen to the story are idlers who don't have anything to do.,Who is full enough to deal with the government and cause that irrelevant trouble.,Anyway, someone dares to say.,Just listen to it for fun.。

Unexpectedly, just when the gentleman's eyebrows were flying and his mouth was like a river, two sons in green clothes and narrow robes suddenly came in, without hats and hair, only with wooden hairpins, looking simple and neat. The two walked straight to the side of the stage, and one of them interrupted the talker, and said calmly: "The one on the stage, our master invites you to come over for a cup of tea, and please appreciate your face." The other was not so polite, and said with a cold face: "Let's go, let's talk." ”

Mr. Speak's face had changed, and he felt that he was not good, so he blurted out: "Are you from the Yamen?" ”

Such a one-on-one answer didn't make any movement, but the tearoom suddenly quieted down, and the spectators didn't dare to sit down when they heard the atmosphere of the "people from the Yamen", and the scene was a little weird. However, the people who came to drink tea and listen to the story were not particularly nervous, even if something happened, it had little to do with them, the founding of the Jin Dynasty has always claimed benevolence, and there has never been a case of indiscriminate arrest of people.

The cold-faced man patted the sign hanging on his belt and said, "Neichang, don't rub it when you understand it, so as not to disturb irrelevant people." ”

The gentleman was stunned and couldn't make any resistance, so he had to obediently come down from the platform. The two young men, one leading the way in front and the other in the back, let the gentleman walk in the middle, and took the person away lightly.

The guests in the hall sighed when they saw that people were gone, and after a while, Xiao Er ran in again and said: "All the guest officers will come back another day, our shopkeeper has also been taken away, so I have to close first today, I'm sorry, the small one will pay a gift first." ”

Everyone got up and went out when they saw that something was wrong, but they just felt that what happened just now was very strange, the government was doing things with great fanfare, and since they dared to arrest people, they were sure that this teahouse would also be sealed. But now, I saw that someone had been taken away, as if nothing had happened. G
