Chapter 309: The Past: New Year, New Weather
In the spring, all things begin to sprout, and life can be sacrificed;
A bowl of plum soup in midsummer, the crushed ice hits the wall, and it is obsessed;
The Mid-Autumn Festival is also the Mid-Autumn Festival, and the word sorrow will be split in half, and the wind will roar and kill;
In the middle of winter, the mountains and rivers are frozen for thousands of miles, and there is a new life in Tibet.
If it is a big road cycle day after day, it is like a dream of Nanke in a dream for three or two years.
In the past, the clouds and smoke looked at the vicissitudes of the sea, and the clouds were just a flash in the pan.
It was three years ago, at the beginning of the new year, and everything was in order.
The winter in Xi'an is very distinctive, especially in the late winter and early spring, which makes people feel like crying with joy everywhere.
When the sun is not rising, it is extremely cold, and the water vapor is so cold that it forms a thin ice ballast on his beard in the blink of an eye. As soon as the sun rises, even if half of the face is exposed, it is warm, and it is very comfortable to sit on the top of the house.
Beijing, a small city developed from a military town, follows the Xuanyang line named after the capital, a laneway, dividing more than 20 households into north and south.
It's just that the alley is also a little wider, and the three or four carriages are running side by side tightly, so it shouldn't be a problem to look at it.
Of course, this is the case, but you can't really act like this, the parallel etiquette of the four carriages is the unique prestige of the royal family, and ordinary people are not allowed to trespass, which is a crime belonging to the Yi clan.
The alleys are wide and wide, and they dare not be wider than Suzaku Street.
Not only for this "small" alley that can be so wide for various direct or indirect reasons, but also for the size of Beijing's city, which has to - naturally and inevitably - is smaller than Beijing.
It is to compare the Suzaku Avenue in the capital with talents, and none of them can be transgressed.
Different from other markets, even if it is in the capital, the alleys are named indiscriminately, and the street signs are all fooled around and hung with a board as a reminder, such as this alley that is no less than the main road, at the end of the alley, each erects a stone tablet more than half a person high, and the small characters on the back introduce the mythical stories of this alley. The front book "Xinghua Lane" has three big characters, the shape is square, and the circle is beautiful.
Although it should be as detailed as the back of the stele, there must be an inscription or a inscription on the stele to highlight the source, and there is not even a date, let alone who wrote it.
However, it is precisely because of this that we can better know who wrote it.
Zhao Mingri, Emperor Wu Jian's diplomatic letters, are from his hand, there is atmosphere in the words, there is killing intent between the lines, Emperor Wu Jian praised it as "the important treasure of the country, Ling across a dynasty".
This person lives in the capital, is very good at handwriting, writes a good hand, but his temper is very weird, his reputation is unassuming, he never shows off, he never makes money with words, no matter how many people spend a lot of money to ask for words and paintings, he ignores such a good way to get rich.
It's only to blame this self-esteem as a literati, who just wants to look up to the sky and laugh and go out, never thinking about firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea.
It is precisely because of this noble spirit that he is still alone in his fifties, and it is a bit too much to say that he is a disciple of the four walls, but he has also suffered from the last meal without the next meal. This person is also extremely scoundrel, he loves to drink very much, he goes on credit when he has no money, and he cheats when he has more credit, and deceives the store owner that he exchanges words for wine and food, but in the end none of them are cashed. The entire large and small restaurants in the capital more or less have an account of him, and some shrewd shops have tricked him into writing IOUs, but they have also been mercilessly refused, and the public angrily reprimanded the store for being uneasy and kind.
Later, his reputation was also stinky to a certain extent, and no one would sell him, so he was more direct and changed to stealing. is not pampered and arrogant, for him, this is the joy of life - so that in the end, it is the government that settles the bills for him because of his identity.
It is said that there is only a bed and a quilt and a brush in his home, and he doesn't even have a piece of paper. He lives in Yongpingfang, the capital, and the elders in the workshop have to go to his house every once in a while to have a look, for fear that this national treasure will either starve to death or freeze to death, or be stoned to death by the collapse of the wall with leaky writing.
Except for those ink treasures that were sealed in the palace and no one could see them, the handwriting of this important treasure of the country that circulated among the people was only two paintings and seven characters.
One is this "Apricot Blossom Lane".
The other, "Begging for Food with Mouths."
The 17th day of the New Year, from Chinese New Year's Eve to the 16th, is a custom unique to the Great Monday Dynasty, when Lip celebrates together, showing the infinite majesty of the Celestial Empire, and peace.
It's just such a prosperous era of singing and dancing, but it is only the common celebration of the whole Great Zhou, and under the cover of this jubilation, there are also bad things that are difficult to remember in the small family.
Naturally, it is the first night on the mountain, the holy decree that broke the feast of the backer king's mansion: on this happy day, I miss the patron king's knee Sun Yeyao and the fourteenth prince's childhood sweetheart, why not choose a good day, the two surnames are married, and the mandarin tree is clearly stated, and the marriage is forever.
The cinnabar seal of the cover is bright and swaying, four inches wide and narrow, square, and there are eight seal characters in the circle, "ordered by the sky, both longevity and eternal prosperity".
I got the news in the palace a long time ago, according to the plan discussed in advance by the three grandfathers and grandsons, the so-called anti-decree and anti-marriage grandfathers and grandsons were so angry that the backer king expelled the sisters and brothers from the house One by one.
Obviously, he just wanted to take advantage of the situation and go with the flow to avoid this public opinion at this time, and wait for a few days to pass this period of silence, and the saint who was notoriously unreliable in talking and doing things anyway withdrew his order, and there was no sin of disobeying the order.
After all, about Emperor Wensheng's doing things from his heart, don't say that the ministers of the court and the central government, even the common people are clear.
The first emperor died, this is located in the East Palace for 30 years after the son of heaven ascended the throne, stopped for a year and a half, how to say that it is also the first time to ascend to the treasure, I dare not say what to do immediately, at least we must uphold the will of the ancestors and abide by our duties.
After that, Emperor Wen Sheng did whatever he wanted, and it was indeed worthy of... The faint monarch is not counted, it can only be said that compared to several previous emperors, it is really far behind.
After all, it is also the ancestors of several emperors who have worked hard, speaking of this Wenzhi martial arts are all on the top, after four Ming masters, the Great Zhou Dynasty can be called the Heavenly Dynasty, not only sitting on the vast territory of the male army, or the soldiers are strong and strong, but also because of the cang, the people live in peace, and the appearance of the prosperous world jumps on the table, and it is absolutely regarded as an emperor who is not worried about eating and drinking, and there will always be some ideas that are different from ordinary people, so he will always do something incomprehensible and jaw-dropping.
When he first ascended to the throne of the crown prince, the later son of heaven secretly went out of the palace several times, not for pleasure, but purely for fun.
Without him, there is a place to go.
Later, he became the king of a country, and it was even more taboo.
For example, following the example of the sages who worked hard to govern the country for more than a year, Emperor Wensheng gave up on a whim, and felt that when he went out on patrol that year, he saw the yellow sand in the Western Regions, so he ingeniously implemented the policy of planting trees to prevent sand and raise forests with soldiers, but he was too eager to achieve results, and most of the manpower and material resources were not effective, so he gave up halfway, and it was over in only two years, which made the military in the Western Regions complain.
In the next few years, there was also a stroke of genius for the spring system, and the imperial examination system that has been inherited for thousands of years has been regained by the recommendation system, requiring students to go back to three generations, or there is no bad record, just for the cold door to jump the dragon gate, naturally it is not very effective, after all, how many people can really have money and leisure to read and write? It came to an end two years later due to the gradual exhaustion of talents.
Of course, there is also a plank road reform, but also a whim, just to eat Lingnan fresh lychee, so with a very high amount of silver as a reward, to encourage the people along the way from Lingnan to the capital to dig out a straight official road, every mountain to open the road and meet the water to build a bridge, once again consume financial resources do not know how much, but also a few months later realized that it is unrealistic, there are many mountain roads and waterways, I am afraid that the treasury is empty and it is difficult to do things, so it was hastily terminated.
Naturally, it is not a waste of money and labor, every time Emperor Wensheng's temporary intention, he is in time to stop the loss after discovering his defects, but every time he is happy, he is followed by the senior members of the court and the central government again and again, if it is not for the four emperors who left behind the ministers of the order day and night, maybe Emperor Wensheng will come up with something to make this group of Wenchen generals headaches.
For example, the harem, which is not much simpler than the three classes of ministers, is a small court in the backyard of the royal family, and the ministers naturally cannot intervene, the key is that as a monarch of a dynasty, it is really not possible to interfere too much, and the queen mother of the world is separated from the emperor before and after, which is the inherent system of the imperial city. It's just that Emperor Wen Sheng also took some time out of his busy schedule to get the harem queen mother to come forward before it was over.
At the end of the emperor's life, this son of heaven had already stepped into the threshold of knowing the destiny of heaven, and he had been under the wings of the emperor for too long, just like a newborn baby, and he would always be a little hot-headed when he suddenly obtained the supreme right.
Emperor Wensheng was hot-headed, waved his hand, and built a bazaar in the inner palace, imitating the east and west markets in Beijing, what shops and inns, restaurants and snacks, juggling green buildings, everything is complete. Every time the dynasty is dispersed or after dealing with the official business at hand, he asks to go up to the concubines and down to the palace maids, plus many eunuchs Huangmen, pretending to be ordinary people or traders, which is very lively, the key is that Emperor Wensheng shuttles through the east and the west, and when he rises, he will bargain with those "bosses", which is really self-satisfied.
It's just that after all, it is also the inner palace, and face is important, and later the queen mother knew about it and came forward to stop, but Emperor Wensheng, who listened to the persuasion, followed the will of the queen mother, and it was over.
In this way, this son of heaven who always does things casually, the news from the palace said that it was a marriage on a whim after drinking, and the few people on the mountain who knew that they had the right to do it were the same as before, and maybe they would take back their lives in a few days.
Yes, after the night and the night three were on the mountain and the night was on the mountain after the scene was staged, plus the night Hongtu who was kept in the dark participated, openly confronted the old man at home, according to the people who sneaked out to meet the two during the day, the two of them had not seen a word last night, and you all started to move, and those expensive tables, chairs, benches, jade bottles, and bronze mirrors in the hall were broken and broken, and they were in a mess.
But in the eyes of Ye Yao, this can be regarded as an unintentional move, and it adds to the truth of this layout, making outsiders believe it.
After that, the sister and brother went down the mountain in the middle of the night, went directly through the capital, and hid in the house in Beijing City, which was also purchased temporarily many years ago, and waited for news.
It's not like now, everyone wants to join in the fun, the night at that time was quiet and quiet, and her temperament was very elegant, so that she sat alone in the small courtyard, reading and writing, cooking tea and wine, and this day was also a good day, leaving the night three watch aside and doing nothing, but became an idler.
It is not yet night, there are several places in the two places of Beijing and Beijing are already lively and extraordinary, on the 17th day of Daqing, everywhere is full of lanterns and colorful flowers, and the red flying green dance is full of joy.
In such a grand occasion, there are writers and poets who say: The fire trees and silver flowers are combined, and the iron lock of the star bridge is opened. The dark dust goes with the horse, and the bright moon comes one by one.
Some literati and writers have even said: Clothes and makeup are everywhere, and the lights on the sixth street make children noisy.
After all, it is the New Year, and under the prosperous times, there is a new atmosphere.
Compared with the bustling capital, Beijing is not lively, but the night three that can't be held back is more than a day, naturally I can't be idle, thinking about going to the capital to join in the fun. This is the jubilant New Year of the whole country, how can he be comfortable trapped in the house? Seeing that Ye Yao ignored himself, he didn't say hello and went out on his own.
It's just that the front foot of the third watch of the night has just left, and the night has not completely covered the sky, and there is a woman in a goose yellow robe, wrapped in a mink fur, to this small courtyard, raising her hand and knocking on the door.
The opposite of each other, naturally did not go far in the third watch of the night, but he saw a carriage kicking in the distance at the corner of the street.
In the capital that is no longer subject to curfews, everyone is going to the lively place, but this carriage appeared in this secluded place, and Ye San couldn't help but leave a thought, after all, if you take a closer look in the dark sky, you can guess the identity of the person by the carriage.
Ning family, rather said.
A woman who is treated as a man by the night three.
