Popular recommendations: Heaven punishes evil and orders the emperor to come to Hongmeng
When Du Fu arrived outside Wuwei City, he saw a large number of people gathered outside Wuwei City.
The officer escorting Du Fu said: "Captain Du, finally arrived before the deadline."
Du Fu also breathed a sigh of relief. The Tang Dynasty had strict regulations on demoting officials.
There are regulations on how many miles one has to walk every day and how long it takes to reach the destination of relegation. Once he fails to arrive on time, not only the offender must be convicted, but also the official who is escorting him must be convicted.
The two businessmen took good care of Du Fu along the way, and Du Fu naturally didn't want to implicate them.
Finally arrived at Wuwei City, a few days earlier than the time set by the court.
The three people in the group breathed a sigh of relief, and now Du Fu was in the mood to watch the excitement.
"Let's go take a look." Du Fu suggested.
The police officer surnamed Wu immediately said: "It's too late to report to the governor's office today. We might as well stay overnight and report again tomorrow."
Another police officer also nodded and said: "I haven't seen such a lively place for a long time. Let's go and see what it is."
Du Fu was also confused for a while, and he suddenly recalled that in the eleventh year of Tianbao, he, Cen Shen, Gao Shi, Chu Guangxi, and Xue Ju climbed the Ci'en Temple Pagoda together in Chang'an City, and the five of them wrote poems one after another.
Standing on the Ci'en Temple Tower, Gao Shi first wrote the first poem about climbing the Ci'en Temple Tower.
At that time, Gao Shi could not be reused in Chang'an, and he wrote in a depressed mood:
"The palaces and palaces are all in front of the houses, and the mountains and rivers are facing each other. The autumn wind came last night, and Qin Sai was clear and open."
The palaces in Chang'an are connected to the eaves of Ci'en Temple. Compared with the clean condition of the frontier fortress, it is evident from this that Gao Shi's ambition to go to the frontier and make contributions.
After that, Gao Shi decided to join the army and serve as secretary-general under Ge Shuhan. When Du Fu left Fengxiang Mansion, he heard the news that Gao Shi had defeated King Yong's rebellion in Jianghuai, and Gao Shi had been appointed by the imperial court as the governor of Huainan.
make.
The five people visited Ci'en Temple Pagoda together, with the original intention of giving Cen Shen a refreshment and cleansing after returning to Chang'an from the frontier.
After climbing the Ci'en Temple Tower, Cen Shen, who had been living in the frontier for many years, had the idea of returning to the countryside.
He wrote:
Autumn colors come from the west, and Guanzhong is filled with green.
On the Wuling North Plain, it is evergreen and misty.
Once you understand it clearly, you can understand it, and you will be victorious because of your long-cherished teachings.
I vow to hang up my crown and feel that my Taoist resources are endless.
However, the idea of retreating to Buddhism and hanging up his crown was just a momentary emotion expressed by Cen Shen on the top of the Ci'en Temple tower, and later he returned to the frontier again.
Later poems came back, and they were all frontier poems praising the frontier.
Du Fu instinctively resisted the powerful frontier poems.
However, in the poetry world of the Tang Dynasty, frontier poems advocating achievements in military service were often the best way for poets to progress.
The poet sung the praises of the frontier generals, obtained the recommendation of the frontier generals to become an official, and then further progressed through military exploits.
Gao Shi and Cen Shen both followed this path.
In the second year of Zhide, both Du Fu and Cen Shen were recommended as public officials, and today Cen Shen is still serving as the Right Supplementary Officer in Yushitai.
But this time Du Fu was demoted from Fengxiang Mansion, but Cen Shen did not see him off.
Du Fu did not blame his old friend. Nowadays, the world is difficult and it is good to be able to protect himself. Cen Shen did not want to offend the emperor by a "criminal minister" like Du Fu.
Chu Guangxi and Xue Ju each wrote poems, and the last one to write poems was Du Fu.
Du Fu looked at the scenery of Chang'an and wrote this sentence.
"It is a pity to drink from the Yao Pond, and the sun rises over the Kunlun Mountains. The yellow swans go away without stopping. Where can they cast their wails? You see the geese following the sun, and each one has his own plan."
At that time, Chang'an was prosperous, but everyone in the court had their own plans. The struggle in the court was fierce, and chaos broke out frequently in the world.
Unexpectedly, Du Fu's poem turned out to be a prophecy, and Li Tang even lost the city of Chang'an.
Du Fu then thought about how he and Wang Wei were captured by the rebels after the fall of Chang'an.
Fortunately, although he was famous for his poems, he was not a high-ranking official, and the fake Yan did not strictly monitor him.

Wang Wei was even more miserable. During the Tianbao period, he had already become a doctor in the Ministry of Personnel.
The puppet Yan court forced Wang Wei to become an official and kept him under strict supervision. It is said that he has now become the crown prince Zhongyun in the puppet Yan court.
Du Fu suppressed these messy thoughts and wrote a letter to the court this time, completely offending the emperor.
Since you have been demoted, come to Longyou and have a good look.
Maybe there is also an opportunity to establish achievements in the frontier.
At this time, two police officers had already led Du Fu into the crowd.
Seeing the smiles on so many people's faces, Du Fu felt dazed for a while.
How many years has it been since we saw such a lively scene?
I only saw people surrounding a strange pavilion, two wooden tracks laid flat on the ground, a platform above the ground, and a shed to protect it from the wind and rain.
This simple building is Zhangye Station.
In order to save costs and build the wooden rail cart as quickly as possible, Zhan Yaguang used the most economical solution.
The common people also heard that Longyou invented a horse-drawn rail car that could travel hundreds of miles a day, so they gathered around the station to watch the excitement.
"I'm coming!"
Du Fu felt the ground begin to shake and saw four horses pulling three connected carriages rushing towards the platform!
"Uh-huh!
!" Yan Xiaobei, who was driving the carriage, pulled the reins and waved the whip, finally controlling the four horses.
Then Yan Xiaobei pulled the manual brake, and the brake pads rubbed against the iron wheels, causing sparks to shine.
"good!"
Everyone cheered, and the onlookers saw that the carriage that had been driving at full speed just stopped suddenly due to Yan Xiaobei's superb riding skills.
After the horse stood firm, a staff member immediately came forward, untied the lasso from the horse, and led the horse to the horse pen at the back.
Yan Xiaobei wiped the sweat from his forehead. After six consecutive hours of high-intensity manipulation, if it weren't for the body with enhanced attributes in the game, he really wouldn't be able to withstand it.
Yan Xiaobei jumped off the carriage, and the crowd cheered again.
Du Fu also secretly praised him for his "good riding skills"!
Du Fu had seen horse-drawn wagons before, but this was his first time seeing a horse-drawn carriage running on a wooden track.
But even if it is a carriage running on a track, what is there to be surprised about?
It actually attracted so many people to watch?
Immediately afterwards, the porters who had been preparing at the station boarded the carriage and moved all the goods from the two carriages behind.
Another railway staff member opened the door of the first carriage and found that all the sandbag scarecrows inside were safe and sound.
At this time, the clever policeman surnamed Wu had already inquired about the situation of the railway, and whispered in Du Fu's ear:
"Captain, I heard that this carriage came from Zhangye City."
Zhangye?
Du Fu looked at the carriage in surprise. Zhangye and Wuwei were not very close to each other. This carriage actually came from Zhangye?
The police officer surnamed Wu added: "I heard from the people that this car left Zhangye just three hours ago."
Three hours!
Du Fu? So fast?
Du Fu was on his way, and it took him almost a month to travel from Fengxiang Mansion to Wuwei.
He simply continued his calculations. If such a carriage could be accessed, wouldn't it be possible to arrive in two or three days?
This is too fast!
Du Fu was even more surprised when he saw the goods that the porters carried out from the two carriages at the back.
This horse-drawn rail car is so awesome!
As soon as Du Fu arrived in Wuwei City, the horse-drawn railcar gave him a head start.
Du Fu began to look forward to it. Hexi seemed different from the Central Plains?

A server-wide announcement spread throughout the game, and Zhan Yaguang enjoyed the honor of being recorded in the history of the game.
At this time, a mine was under construction at Dangjin Mountain Pass, and a large amount of iron ore was excavated from the mine.
Qinchuan, who rushed to Dangjin Mountain Pass from Tianqian City, was watching the Tibetan slaves sending iron ore to the blast furnace under the whip of the supervisor.
This iron factory that Qinchuan came to "attract investment" is a third-generation iron factory designed by Jian Xia himself.
Jian Xia specially ran from Shazhou to Dangjin Mountain Pass and personally watched the slaves build the ironworks.
In addition to the ironworks, there is also a smelting plant nearby that can directly cast molten iron into rails.
Jian Xia's original plan was to make a 25-meter-long railway track just like reality.
But there were no large cranes in this era, and no one could move the 25-meter-long rail.
To do business, Jian Xia could only change it to a ten-meter-long railway track, so that only enough slaves could move it.
Jian Xia was roaring at Qin Chuan: "I've told you many times that iron plants and smelting plants need skilled workers! You let these slaves operate, not let them die!"
Jian Xia said angrily to Qin Chuan.
Qin Chuan said with a bitter look on his face: "I can't help it. There are only a few literate people here, so where are the skilled workers?"
Jian Xia said: "Then recruit from Longyou! The steel plant is not a mine! If the mine is dug casually, it will cause landslides. If the steel plant operates illegally, it will explode!"
Qinchuan was also a little helpless. There were not even a few literate people in the entire Tuyuhun area.
These slaves who work in the steel factory have been carefully selected by him.
However, accidents still occurred frequently, leaving Qin Chuan in a state of distress.
It seemed that workers could only be recruited from Longyou. Thinking of the cost, Qin Chuan was about to go bald again.
In order to build this railway, Qinchuan scraped off all the gold foil from the Great Buddha Temple in Tianqian City.
Tuyuhun spent all his money to build this railway. Now that he has built supporting mines and smelting plants, he still has to go ahead and build it.
Qinchuan also contacted Wuhan Iron and Steel Company, which invented the steam engine, and invited him to come to Tuyuhun to build the first steam locomotive.
Wuhan Iron and Steel resolutely accepted the invitation and has already taken the workshop to Tuyuhun.
Qin Chuan gritted his teeth and said: "Hire! I will send out a recruitment notice to recruit qualified industrial workers in Dashui Gorge! The treatment will be favorable!"
