In front of the Yingbin Garden of Honglu Temple, all the writers were still unwilling to leave.
But the pen guest who was gently pushed by Honglu Temple Minister said: "Everyone, Chang'an has nine gates. There is more than one way to enter Chang'an. Of course we still have a way!"
It seems to be expected that all the writers are scholars and shrewd minds.
The minister of Honglu Temple just smiled and touched his beard and called to his entourage: "Go back and have tea!"
The pen writers left, and the leader opened the note in Honglu Temple's hand. There were only four words on it: Khitan, Huihe!
"Yes, why don't we go to the embassy district!"
When the writers arrived at the embassy area, the number of them had already reached forty. There are now more than a dozen newspapers in Chang'an, large and small. Many small newspapers, such as Dongshi News, are distributed only in Dongshi, which has the largest number of newspapers.
The news is the opening of new stores and predictions on the prices of various goods.
Reviews of various restaurant delicacies, etc.
Even for a tabloid newspaper, it sells close to two thousand copies every day.
For example, large ones, like the Chang'an Newspaper, print a minimum of 100,000 copies every day and send them to the surrounding prefectures and counties four hundred miles away at the same time. There are Chang'an Newspapers for sale including Luoyang.
Upon hearing the news, the Khitan envoy in Chang'an actually opened the central gate and served refreshments to welcome the pen guests.
No matter what these pen writers are doing, the Khitan envoys are not willing to offend them. Baekje is an example now. These guys have been scolded so much that it is really embarrassing for a man to hit a strange woman on the streets of Chang'an.
, at least not in Khitan.
When the Khitan envoy asked all the writers why they were here, he slammed the table hard.
"If I had been there at that time, look at this!" Khitan raised his big fan-like palm and said, "I just slapped that Baekje slave in the face. Does he know what etiquette is? They
Those barbarians from Baekje who only eat raw meat and don’t even know what salt is, do they know etiquette?”
present!
All the writers were shocked. The man in front of them looked more like a barbarian. The hair on his chest was not less than the amount of hair on his chest.
On his big fan-like hands, he wore fourteen gold rings alone, and three more on one finger. This guy, who had just learned how to dress from a savage, actually spoke in front of a group of writers who had read poetry and books.
,present!
Very good, very good, very powerful.
This is the real news.
"What is etiquette? I think giving way to an elderly person is etiquette. When we buy something, we will never bargain in a loud voice. If the seller doesn't counter-offer and we don't curse, it's etiquette. That bastard from Baekje doesn't know anything about etiquette. He doesn't know how to do it.
I know that the guy who ran out of his pants came to Chang'an City to show off his power, he is just a ball, a cheap ball!"
These swear words are used, this is talking about etiquette!
"Dear Khitan envoy, do you think it was wrong for the Baekje envoy to beat someone in the street, and he hit a weak woman. As long as the other party is not at fault, he should not beat someone!"
Some pen writers started asking questions.
"Bullshit, you shouldn't hit a woman whether she has any fault or not. If you have the guts, find a strong one to beat her. He is just a weakling. If you have the guts, let him come after me!"
Okay, I have used them all.
Under Bi Ke's guidance, he asked hundreds of questions, and the Khitan envoy excitedly invited everyone to drink and eat meat. Not only the Khitan envoy, a barbarian, but also everyone in the Khitan embassy, as long as they were not slaves, spoke.
.
After the Khitan came the Uighurs.
The Uighur people were even more amazing. They set up a tea shed in the front yard, and even prepared pens and papers for the pen visitors. They even bought some snacks from a well-known store in Chang'an.
"There is a cloud in Zhou Li..."
The great Uighur envoy explained the Zhou rites in front of more than 40 writers who could recite the Four Books and Five Classics backwards, and then went on to talk about King Qin's three-point argument about courtesy for ten minutes. Finally, he despised the Baekje envoy on behalf of the Uighur people.
rude.
After that, the Uighur envoy said something very wonderful.
"I wonder if the envoy from Baekje knows how to read!"
It's wonderful, it will definitely be the headline of tomorrow's front page. The writers were so interested that they even forgot about the fatigue of working for most of the day.
Wonderful?
What’s even more exciting is that later, the envoy Mohe said on the spot that a man’s dominance over women definitely does not lie in his fists. He bought ten Baekje female slaves and asked him to show the Baekje people what a man is in front of the Embassy Street!
Cui Junsu finally returned home after a busy day. The first thing he did when he entered the door was to ask the housekeeper: "What happened at the newspaper office? The Baekje envoy heard that he asked Honglu Temple to expel the pen writers. Honglu Temple did a good job. It was just an excuse.
In the past few days, many envoys came to visit, and a martial law was imposed in front of the Yingbin Garden for seven days. It was the imperial court that really drove them away. The imperial court gave the pen writers the power to report injustices, promote the etiquette of the Tang Dynasty, and promote the morality of the people.
Celebrate the suffering and joy of the people!"
"There is an interesting thing that I hope you will know."
"Interesting things, tell me!" Cui Junsu took the tea from the maid. Now he also likes this kind of light green tea, but it is more flavorful than the old tea with a lot of ingredients and oil.
The tea was very good, Cui Junsu nodded with satisfaction.
"Mr. Lang, the price of female slaves in Baekje has tripled before the market closes. The slave market has released news that the market will open tomorrow at five times the price of this morning."
"This is also interesting!"
"What is really interesting is what the Mohe envoy said to Bi Ke, and the Mohe people and the Khitan people were competing to see who was more like a man." The housekeeper placed a copy of Bi Ke's manuscript on Cui Junsu's desk.
Cui Junsu, who was sipping tea, only glanced at it and spit out a sip of tea, hitting the butler in the face.
"I'm rude, I'm rude!" Cui Junsu apologized. In his capacity, such an apology was extremely sincere. Instead, he smiled so hard that he couldn't close his mouth: "Tomorrow, I will ask for a copy of all the newspapers tomorrow.
!" Cui Junsu couldn't even hold the tea bowl, and covered his stomach with one hand while laughing.
On the other side, at Qin Wangzhuang, Li Yuanxing, who was having dinner, also received a report from Chang'an.
After reading the report, Li Yuanxing did not smile.
He just said lightly: "The fire at the city gate has anything to do with the female slaves of Baekje. I made them suffer more out of thin air. I sent people to Yaozhou and told them that no matter whether they are civilians or slaves in Yaozhou, they are not allowed to do anything because of anything."
If you are a human nation and are bullied by others, everyone in Yaozhou must be aware of etiquette!"
"Your Highness is wise!" all the princesses said in unison.
"Send someone to talk to some of the foremen in Yaozhou who have just been freed from slavery to see what they have to say. Bring it back to Yingying. Cui Shangshu naturally knows when to use it!" Li Yuanxing ordered again.
With.
Cui Yingying immediately said: "Why don't you let Yingying go to Yaozhou in person?"
"Very good!" Li Yuanxing agreed to Cui Yingying's request without any hesitation.
In fact, Li Yuanxing had nothing to disagree with. In the era of the Tang Dynasty, women from wealthy families, whether they were daughters or wives, were trapped in a small courtyard all day long, with a rare opportunity to go out once a month.
There is nothing for entertainment in this small courtyard, even mahjong cannot be played from morning to night.
Being a female influencer has become the most time-consuming job in their lives.
Compared to being trapped in a small yard, there are some things you can do, even if it is hard work, you still feel very happy.
Another early morning, Cui Yingying led the team to set off. After hearing the news, Zhang Shigui volunteered to go with Cui Yingying's team, and was willing to let his personal guards serve as escorts to go to Yaozhou together.
In Chang'an City, except for Chang'an Daily, which printed 10,000 extra copies of newspapers on that day, almost all other small newspapers printed double copies.
In particular, Dongshi Bao printed an additional 4,000 copies, which was three times the daily circulation of this small newspaper.
The envoys from various countries who were interviewed bought at least a hundred copies. It was such a great honor to have their words published in newspapers. Naturally, it would be an honor to collect several copies in the future.
The Goguryeo envoys would not arrive at Chang'an City until noon on this day.
The residence of the Goguryeo mission is located in a larger courtyard to the left of the residence of the Baekje mission.
The envoys of Baekje couldn't sit still. The newspapers all criticized him, especially the envoys of the Uighur, Mohe, and Khitan tribes. The words were really unpleasant.
"This envoy will personally explain what happened that day and let the pen writers from Chang'an come in!"
After giving the instructions, the Baekje envoy continued to read these newspapers. The more he read, the more angry he became. He was the protagonist of such a big news, but he was not happy at all.
Something that made him even more unhappy happened right after.
"To answer your question, there are no pen guests outside the door. People from Tang Honglu Temple said that because a ban was issued yesterday, pen guests will never come here within seven days."
"Go to the newspaper office to find them. We cannot allow those barbarians to insult our reputation as Da Baekje!"
Search! You can find it, but no one may come. The boss of Chang'an News has gone to various newspaper offices to ventilate the news in advance. No matter who comes to Baekje, they must not go. Yesterday they were chased away, and today they are invited. I am the Tang Dynasty writer.
Can guests be ordered around by Baekje, left when they want, and come when they want?
The toughness of the pen writers was naturally supported by many powerful people.
Why pen guests are more popular in Chang'an than Liuwai petty officials? The most important thing is reputation. There are three types of pen guests. One is the pen guest who is supported by the newspaper office and only serves one newspaper office. The other is the freelance pen guest who specializes in
Those who look for news, then write it themselves and submit it to newspapers for profit. The last type is those who work part-time, and many of them are even public servants.
The most famous pen writer in Chang'an City, one editorial article by three kings of Qin starts from five silver coins, which is close to two thousand silver coins in old money.
Money is one way, and such a famous person already has some celebrity status.
Once you enter the court as an official, you will be an official from the official seventh rank, and you will be an official from the sixth rank if you add an additional half rank.
Therefore, Bi Ke regards reputation as life, and will never let people be like pigs and dogs. It comes and goes away! (To be continued. Please search Piao Tian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!)
