Dreaming back to the Great Song Dynasty: Be a Song person for a day and experience the city life in Bianliang City

Good morning, everyone, the time machine that travels to the Song Dynasty is ready, please get ready. Accompanied by the voice of the guidance lady, the time machine began to roar, and I, sitting in the time machine, was planning to go on a trip to experience the city life of Bianliang City in the Song Dynasty.

From the twenty-first century to the Song Dynasty more than a thousand years ago, the mood is more or less a little excited, there is no air pollution, vegetables and fruits are all natural, and even the smiles of the pedestrians on the road are much more amiable. Walking on the streets of Bianliang City, the road is full of bustling crowds, book-telling, playing acrobatics to see me is dazzled, the roadside and sell ice candy gourds, greedy me naturally also bought a string of shopping for a while, legs began to ache, tired of walking.

At this point, a person riding a high horse from the downtown area, the roadside pedestrians have to avoid, really fresh clothes and horses are teenagers, it is simply the wind, look at my heart envy.

Collected my silver, the shopkeeper attitude attentive, will bring me to the backyard, I was thinking of the market in the wind speed it, who knows that the shopkeeper out of a donkey, I'm this angry, "shopkeeper, I want to stallion it?" The shopkeeper hurriedly explained, I have no horse here, this donkey is also good, or you try. It turns out that horses in the Song Dynasty can be considered a luxury, only officials with certain authority are qualified to ride a horse, the general scholars have to ride a donkey to catch the road.

"Horse nature like high and cold", because it is only suitable for high altitude grassland stocking, but the Song dynasty north of the Liao country eyeing, west of the Western Xia as the enemy, excellent grassland in the hands of other people, this horse is naturally less pathetic. Most of the war horses in the Song Dynasty had to be obtained through the exchange market, and in order to ensure the number of horses, it was forbidden for people to raise horses privately, and hiding horses privately was a capital offense. Emperor Taizong in the Taiping Xingguo five years, " read the army war horse more que, will be the northern expedition, is the edict of the Ministry of the Road by the civil servants horse, have the courage to hide the death of the people" , so in the folk who dared to ride a horse through the city.

Listen to the shopkeeper this explanation, originally in the interest of me was splashed with a pot of cold water, the shopkeeper to see me unhappy, busy to me to promote the store's other means of transportation. Listen to the shopkeeper said, in the Song Dynasty, the emperor and the harem will sometimes travel by oxcart, the official family as well as the civilian population is more like, but even if it is "livestock", but also by the protection of the law, injury, and even the slaughter of livestock are going to jail, and even the officials in the riding of the official livestock, can not let the official livestock pack more than ten pounds of heavy objects.

This is a long time to live, this livestock sounds rarer than people, think of the sore legs, I asked the shopkeeper there is no sedan chair can rent a top, the shopkeeper face, it seems that the sedan chair can not sit. The first time I saw this, I was in the middle of a long journey, and I was in the middle of a long journey, and I was in the middle of a long journey, and I was in the middle of a long journey, and I was in the middle of a long journey, and I was in the middle of a long journey, and I was in the middle of a long journey, and I was in the middle of a long journey.

By the Song Dynasty, officials and people were still not allowed to ride in the step-van, but at this time the people of the sedan chair was transformed into a fully enclosed sedan chair, with a window on the left and right sides, which made the sedan chair comfortable, and the sedan chair became fashionable in the capital city. But if you take the sedan chair, in addition to the money to rent the sedan chair, but also to pay the sedan bearer to carry the sedan chair of the money, according to the mileage charge, the child and the old man.

It is because the business is booming, the store rental sedan chair is in short supply, has been booked to late, naturally there is no sedan chair rental to me.

I had no choice but to ride a donkey in the marketplace, as a donkey riding the Zhang Guolao. But although I have a driver's license, but will not ride a donkey ah, this donkey all the way to stumble, accidentally hit a sedan chair on the street. From the sedan chair down a girl, smiling like a flower, I was at a loss for words, busy to go forward, learning from the TV series on the scholar's appearance, bowed and saluted: "I'm a little rude, please teach the lady's name, where do you live?"

Who knows that the girl not only ignored me, but also grunted and turned his head away, not that the Song Dynasty girls are bound by etiquette, behavior generous it, how this rude. This is not the end, the girl with the sedan chair after a few words, the sedan chair straightened the waist over to give me a slap: "You this boy, my mother is a lady, how is it that you can be slandered out of thin air?"

Inexplicably received a slap, was also said to be slander others, I was puzzled. Next to another sedan chairman is considered to be understanding, will pull me aside, said I see you are a gentleman, how to take my mother as a woman in a greenhouse, full of knowledge how not to say a good word. I suddenly realized that the original Water Margin inside the name of the girl for the mother is not frivolous words, blame only blame me for not learning the traditional cultural knowledge ah, in this busy downtown can really lose face.

After apologizing to the "little lady", I took the donkey and walked through the Panjialou, east until the West Street, and suddenly saw a store called Sangjiawazi, listening to the sound of the inside of a chaotic, and drums and gongs. If you think about it, is this the kind of place that history books talk about? You can't miss it. I've heard that there's a lot of fun to be had inside, and it's the capital's entertainment square, with theater performances, jugglers and comedians all performing here in one place, every day.

I walked into the tile after, here is a lot of people, whether it is a restaurant or tea house is crowded, even the grocery store is also crowded with people. As I walked and strolled around, I found a piece of land separated by a fence and surrounded by curtain tents, each of which was surrounded by a group of people, which was probably the performance place of the artists - the hookah. The hook rail is the basic performance unit of the tile, the hook rail performance time and place of the basic will not change, every festival, even the Royal Garden inside the hook rail, terrace, for people to watch entertainment performance.

The program in the hook is also colorful, rap, song and dance, opera, opera, sumo wrestling, animal taming, acrobatics can be described as everything, look at my choice of difficult to make a mistake, no matter what, go in first and then say. After queuing up to enter, I was surrounded by a large group of people like crazy rushed to a place, pulling an old man asked, the original is the first beauty of the capital Li Shishi to open a personal concert, those who are her avid fans, I also have to go to get together.

The Tile Hooker is the birthplace of pop music in the capital, and many classic songs are passed down from the Tile Hooker to the streets and alleys, where they are sung by the people. Li Shishi is known for his rapping in the capital, which is a program of singing Song lyrics with music. The rapper sings in a low voice and beats his hands to the rhymes, plus Xiao Xiao accompanies him, which makes him feel drunk.

After listening to the rap, I reluctantly walked out of the tile, the day is not early, it seems to find an inn ready to rest. Walking face to face, a look quite elegant inn into the eyes, the door of a pair of stone lions can be seen in this store is extraordinary. Since I'm here, we need to live a little more comfortable, I stride into the inn, the shopkeeper greeted me politely, but also took the initiative to help me carry things, so that people are at home.

Further walk inside, the interior decoration is very luxurious, furnishings and furniture look like antiques, there is a back garden, and I walked face to face are dressed in decent guests, there are even a few exotic people rubbing shoulders with me, this inn is really a status of people to stay. When I walked to the counter, I took out my silver and asked the innkeeper to open a good guest room for me, but I didn't realize that the innkeeper was full of smiles and returned the silver to me, saying that I should just give him the postal vouchers.

Bad, I will not enter the official post house it, it is said that the Song Dynasty, "all should not enter the post and into the person, flogging forty," the thought of getting a board my forehead a cold sweat, busy with the shopkeeper's explanation into the wrong place, spread feet a smoke ran out.

To talk about affordable, but also to the north of the city Gongyuan, Taixue area of the hostel, because to come here to stay more than should be lifted by the scholar or should be examined by the staff, the natural price is more affordable. Now is not the year of the examination, so not a lot of people to come to the boarding, but some of the previous year's examination failed candidates did not return to their hometowns and continue to prepare for the examination here, can be said to be the earliest "Beijing漂 "吧. After booking a room, the sky is already thinning, this time is also the beginning of the fast, be sure to go to the eye.

Qiande three years, Song Taizu ordered Kaifengfu: "Beijing night market, to three drums have come, shall not be prohibited". To the present ah, commercial activities, prosperous, colorful civic culture, night market is completely free of time constraints. Bianliang City, after night, the street restaurants everywhere are lit up, everywhere bright lights, traffic, simply more lively than the daytime.

Before I came to the Song Dynasty, I had done my homework, and there are two big night markets in Bianliang City, one is the night market in Zhouqiao along the Royal Street, and the other is the night market in the area of Panlou Street.

The state bridge spans both sides of the Bianhe River and is a famous and busy part of the city. After leaving the south gate of Tokyo, I walked north to the night market, which is very fascinating. The bridge is brightly lit, with the sound of various merchants selling their wares, which is a street of food and drink.

After the night market, you can't miss another one. Although it's already late at night, there are still carriages for hire around the city's Ichibashi Bridge, which are open all night long to save you the trouble of traveling. The night market on Panlou Street is mostly filled with goods houses selling delicate playthings, but there is a Songmenwai Wazi to the east, where traffic is heavy and people watching performances are endless, more lively than the Zhouqiao Bridge.

After touring the night market of Bianliang City, I have to sigh that the ancients are also night owls, and now the night is very late, I have to hurry back to the inn to rest back, after all, this is a one-day tour of Tokyo, and I have to go back to modern times in the morning. Next time I have to participate in a few more days, to explore the city of Tokyo good food and fun, not only to relax the body and mind, but also to grow knowledge, two birds with one stone.
