【Valentine's Day Special】I wish everyone a happy Valentine's Day
On the tenth day of the first lunar month, even if spring is on, the wind is still making people feel chilly, and it is very likely that it will snow tonight.
Li Zhi traveled to the Tang Dynasty, and it had been more than a year since he knew it. Last time he went to the Tang Dynasty, it was his funeral. Everyone cried and shouted, but there was no leisure to celebrate the New Year.
This year I've had a complete experience.
In the first month of the ancients, there was less unique and lively modern people. After all, there was a small population and less lights and wine, which seemed much deserted.
The entertainment and entertainment projects are limited, so I drink some wine, recite poems and write pairs, and watch the orioles perform, and the day just passed.
Recently, Li Zhi's harem was related to the release of a book called "Tang Palace Weekly".
The relationship between the concubines was extremely harmonious, which made him feel a little lonely.
So he owes him, and he feels annoyed by others around him, and he feels that others don’t value him anymore.
This book is mainly divided into two major sections, one is the Tang Palace culture, which records royal life, and some traditional rules and poetry appreciation.
Another is the entertainment section, which is a writer who Li Zhi recruited from the people to the palace, and is specially used to write stories.
The story is like a storyteller, splitting the entire story and serializing it in the second half of the reading material.
Of course, this book is also very welcome to submit the articles by the concubines in the palace, and give themselves a font size as a pseudonym to publish the articles. The manuscripts after being requisitioned will be arranged to be serialized in each issue.
For a moment, a reading style began to blew from the palace.
At first, this weekly magazine was published once a week, only in the palace, but it was spread to ten thousand times. There was an interesting book in the palace, which quickly covered the entire Chang'an City with lightning speed.
From the first release date, the "Tang Palace Weekly" was snatched away by the concubines in the harem. Li Zhirang, who was responsible for printing, worked overtime overnight.
The consumer group is the concubines in the harem led by the queen, and even the little palace maids and eunuchs.
Later, even the wives of the destiny outside the palace and the wives of the officials were fighting for them.
Even overtime printing was too late, Li Zhi simply asked the publishing staff to hand-written them all to make up the numbers, but unexpectedly, the hand-written ones were copied at a sky-high price.
When the people heard the news, they looked for contacts everywhere. Some asked their daughters who were next door to work in the palace, so they would give them more hard work and ask their daughter to bring a copy from the palace.
There is also a group of people who specialize in purchasing a purchase slightly higher than the issue price and then sell it at a high price.
The people of Chang'an had a lot of living conditions at that time. Everyone gave unanimous praise for the fun that could be bought with a little money.
Li Zhi thought that this should be the original body of the first generation of scalpers.
The manuscript was sold at a high price in the hands of this group of people, saying that it was a manuscript of the original manuscript, which had a huge ending value.
People outside the palace were curious about the lives of the nobles in the palace. Even if they had a meal, they thought the way of eating was quite fresh.
The ladies in the palace were curious about the life of the outside world. This batch of cabbage plants was larger than the last time, which was also an interesting thing.
A reading book makes the palace more popular and closer to the people. At first, the ministers disagreed and felt that the royal majesty was inviolable.
Until they were buying this book in their own backyard, they just closed their eyes.
Later, in order to reduce costs, scalpers started pirated businesses.
First, I used an authentic publication to open the model and printed it one-to-one.
This move has benefited a large number of people who want to spend money but have no way to buy it.
Things became more and more serious, resulting in a large number of "Tang Palace Weekly" staying in private authorized book clubs because everyone went to buy pirated copies.
The pirated version not only replicates the "Tang Palace Weekly", but on this basis, various fan weekly magazines even appeared.
Adding fuel to it, the life in the palace was organized into various gossips, and gossip books similar to headlines were derived, which were published daily like newspapers.
Li Zhi woke up early in the morning to welcome a brand new day in the Tang Dynasty, starting with a hot breakfast.
The breakfast in Chang'an is very simple, it is nothing more than porridge, noodle soup and noodle cake. It's a coincidence that Li Zhi only loves this bowl of porridge.
A bowl of fragrant milk porridge is definitely one of the best foods to keep warm. This bowl of white porridge, the old man Bai Juyi also mentioned it.
"It's the cold spring weather today, I ask myself what I want? Su Nuancao white wine, milk and rehmannia porridge..."
To put it simply, it is to add milk, vegetables, dried fruits, etc. to the porridge. Without modern additives, this original taste is simply too beautiful.
This was originally during the first lunar month, Li Zhi was on vacation.
Unexpectedly, as soon as I took a bite, I heard a minister report that the pirated publications outside the palace were getting more and more intense and had reached the point where they could not be controlled.
Various evil publications appeared out of thin air, covering the entire Chang'an City overnight.
Some teach people how to cultivate immortality, how to use ancient secret techniques to capture men's hearts, and...
Those who teach people to cultivate immortality are entertainment, but some people really follow the example. They have been hungry for more than ten days and have not yet entered the water. They say that this is the case to come cleanly and go cleanly.
It is nonsense to say that one can be reborn in the Pure Land.
After the death, the matter was a big deal. Li Zhi quickly asked all the bookstores that were open without a license.
And brainwashing slogans are issued:
There are thousands of ways to read, the first safe reading is the first, the reading is irregular, and the relatives will cry.
Li Zhi ordered the ministers to do it. Since ancient times, pirated copies were really abominable.
When I stood outside the bedroom, it was almost noon. I took the old calendar from the eunuch and flipped it out. My mind was running quickly. According to the calendar calculation, wouldn’t it be the fourteenth day of February?
The ancients did not have this concept. This is a festival that originated in Western Christianity, commonly known as "Valentine's Day".
The Chinese children also have a local Valentine's Day and the Chinese Valentine's Day.
It is somewhat of a festival, and it is worth summoning the concubines in his harem to celebrate.
At this time, light snow began to fall, and it was really snowing.
It is great to eat hot pot this day, but the copper pot mutton hot pot seems to be only found in the Yuan Dynasty. The "antique soup" of the Western Han Dynasty also lacks the soul of the hot pot.
Li Zhi loves the nine-cup grid...
so...
He asked the eunuchs to order the kitchen to be improved based on the Tang Dynasty hot pot, each with a small copper pot with a partition inside, which was divided into nine sections.
He couldn't sit in the palace, so Li Zhi called all the concubines who could attend the banquet. He really couldn't take it into consideration and sent someone to give the pot to their palace.
It was snowing outside, getting heavier and heavier, and there were charcoal fires burning in the house. A group of familiar strange faces, everyone gathered together, both surprised and curious.
Most of them are curious about this nine-cluster grid, and the only thing to pay attention to is to avoid carbon dioxide poisoning.
Whether they have just met, have known each other for a year, or are far away from a foreign land, or like Li Zhi, people who are far away from another time and space.
No matter how far away you are, I believe that each other's hearts will connect each other's hearts like this snow, like this snow, connecting the never-connected sky and earth through the falling snow as a medium.
While Li Zhi was eating hot pot, I believe his family was thinking the same at the moment. Valentine's Day is just a medium.
More about blessings. No matter which day it is, no matter whether there is a festival or not, I hope that your lovers will finally get married!
Chapter completed!
