Datang Fenghua Road

The people cheered, and Han Yue also stopped.

Baekje and Dongying?

Isn't that the stick and Japan of later generations?

Unexpectedly, these two people also sent envoys to the court...

Han Yue suddenly put down the hand that was hooking Lu Dongzan's shoulder, and said with a deep smile: "This is really a coincidence, the Tang Dynasty is about to celebrate the New Year, and all kinds of bulls, ghosts, snakes and gods have come, it seems that this year, we must set off firecrackers, which is really shocking. Demons and monsters."

These words were even encircled by Lu Dongzan, after all, Tubo was also an envoy.

At the end of the fifth year of Zhenguan in the Tang Dynasty, there were only three days left before the Spring Festival of the sixth year of Zhenguan. The envoys of Tubo, Baekje, Japan, and the three countries all had to arrive in Chang'an.

Another country from Silla also sent envoys, intending to submit the vassal credentials. Fifteen years after the founding of the Tang Dynasty, a country finally took the initiative to invite the vassal.

Although this country is a bit strange, its king is Han Yue's father-in-law, the queen in line is his wife, and the queen in line is his daughter.

But all this is without hindrance, because Datang finally has a vassal state.

This is the symbol of dominance.

When Han Yue slept in Liaodong, a daughter-in-law of Silla slept, and a vassal of the Tang Dynasty slept. One day, the Empress Changsun was sitting with all the concubines, and suddenly joked, "My son has the power of the crotch."

Between words, very proud.All the concubines in the palace, all nodded.

Chapter 576 Chinese New Year?new year

Lonely who asks each other, Han Deng is lovable.Nearly one year has passed, and no one has returned for thousands of miles.Looking at things in Liaodong from afar, Zheng robes cover the dust.In the dark night, who sees the hero's grave.

Soldiers fought bloody battles on the front line, horse leather shrouded their bodies and buried their bones in foreign lands, and generals died after hundreds of battles, just to celebrate the New Year for their compatriots...

Three days later, Datang New Year's Eve.

On New Year's Eve, thousands of houses are lit up. This is the most important day for the Chinese people, and there is a longing in their bones.Regardless of poverty or wealth, regardless of joys and sorrows, every family must keep laughing and optimistic on New Year's Eve.

Not to mention the rich, let’s just say that the family is impoverished, even if the family is full, even if the food basket in the family has bottomed out, but on this New Year’s Eve, the poor people always want to do everything possible to get something delicious.

To pull a piece of cloth for the child to make a piece of clothing.

Buy a colored headband for your daughter.

If you are too poor to buy it, then a mother has to do it even if she dismantles her own clothes. One year old and welcome to the new year, the child is the hope of the family.

But there are even poorer ones. The family has no food for the next day, no replacement clothes, and a few members of the family only have a pair of trousers. Whoever goes out will change into clothes to go out. This situation is called extreme poverty. (This is not a scribble of mountains and rivers. There were such poor people in China in the 50s. This is how the allusion of the whole family wearing a pair of pants came about.)

The poorest are the hardest, and New Year's Eve is also the hardest. Not only do they have no food to eat, but they also have no clothes to wear.The greatest suffering of a person is not being poor, but being poor without hope, and unable to see the purpose of life.

Whenever such a poor person is discovered, the Tang government is required to come forward.

……

Tonight is New Year's Eve, and suddenly there are scattered snowflakes, and the cold wind blows and whistles at night, blowing the lanterns on the streets of Chang'an City crooked.

There is the Qujiang River in the northwest of Chang'an, and the Qujiang River is brightly lit tonight.

Ten days ago, Li Shimin had said that this year the royal family would hold a feast on the banks of the Qujiang River.This banquet is not only a banquet to reward merit, but also a banquet to suppress the Confucian family of aristocratic families.

This kind of banquet is only held once a year. Whether it is a minister in the DPRK or a country's honorable person, all the noble ladies in the family can also participate. Not only the noble wife's wife can participate, but also the descendants of the descendants and even the descendants of the concubines. can participate.

One of the purposes of the New Year's Eve Qujiang Banquet is to choose and marry each other.

This kind of banquet is naturally extremely prosperous, and it was already crowded at night.There are few bright lights, sometimes singing and singing.

However, in this prosperous and lively place five miles northwest of Qujiang, there is a village with a poor family and a sigh.

……

This village is called Huajia Village, with a total of [-] people. It is not poor, but it is not rich either.Only there was a family of poor people at the west end of the village. The excitement of the big night seemed to have nothing to do with them. The whole family shrank on the grass and shivered.

I can't do it without shaking, because it's too cold.

Although there were a few firewood burning in the earthen stove in the house, it was hard to beat the cold wind that squeezed in through the crack of the door. The two six- or seven-year-old babies looked at their mother pitifully, and the younger sister was still sobbing. He swallowed and kept saying, "Mother, I'm hungry, Niuniu is hungry..."

When she heard the shaggy face of the mother, she couldn't help but feel sad when she heard the words, and suddenly let out a mournful cry, comforting the girl with the same whimpering voice, saying: "Niu Niu endure it, endure it and then fall asleep. I fell asleep. You won’t be hungry, and tomorrow mother will find a way to dig wild vegetables for you to eat.”

In fact, she herself has no confidence in this. Now is the end of winter, there is no wild vegetable in the fields to dig, and even if there are wild vegetables in other people's fields, her own home has been searched many times.

A sad sigh suddenly sounded from the innermost part of the grass shop, but a man said in a somber voice, "Yueniang, why don't you go to Aunt Sun's house in Dongtou? Today is New Year's Eve, so we can't eat or drink a little. We can both be hungry. Yes, but the child has to eat a little..."

The man's voice became more and more low when he said this, and murmured: "After all, it's New Year's Eve."

Hearing this, the wife became more and more sad, and hummed, "How can I speak? The food borrowed from the previous year has not been repaid this year. You have broken your hands and feet. Even if I am a woman, I am a cow and a horse, but the land at home is still there. I can't grow much food."

The man sighed sadly, lying on the grass bunk and stopped talking.The firewood from the earthen stove came faintly, and dimly illuminated the hot tears on his face.

"Yueniang, take your child and find someone else. If you keep going like this, the whole family will die."

The unkempt beggar-faced wife's eyes were sluggish, and her hands were wrapping her arms around her shivering daughter. She suddenly smiled bitterly, and said faintly, "After the Chinese New Year, I will go find a man who is willing to come. I hope I can find someone who is honest, not Will despise Niuniu and Shishi."

The man with the broken hands and the broken feet burst into tears, and his heart was obviously very sad. However, he gritted his teeth and did not let himself cry. Instead, he comforted his wife and said, "Don't worry, you will definitely find a good man. When you live in the house, Just help me build a grass hut by the door!"

"Wow..." The woman came out of sadness and cried louder.

Women in ancient times were loyal and obedient to festivals. If they were not poor, there was no way to do it. Which wife would be willing to find a man?She is not sloppy and wants to raise a man, she wants to use her body for a man to support the whole family.

The cold wind outside the door seemed to be getting colder.

In fact, the snowstorm tonight is not big, the wind is only a slight cold wind, and the snow is only small fragments. In the eyes of scholars and writers, this kind of weather is a scene worth writing about.

However, it was completely different when it was placed on this extremely poor family. The family was not allowed to eat enough all the year round, and the body was naturally extremely weak and could not resist the slightest cold, so I felt that the cold wind was particularly cold tonight.

There was a sudden rumbling sound on the far bank of the Qujiang River, and there was also a crackling sound in the nearby village. This was because people were burning bamboo in the fire, which meant that the sound of the year was used to remove the filth.

"New Year's Eve!" The man suddenly sighed.

"Yeah, it's New Year's Eve!" The shaggy-haired wife smiled sadly.

Although the two children were sensible, they couldn't bear the hunger in their stomachs. The little girl shrank pitifully in her mother's arms and said, "Mother, Niuniu is hungry..."

Tears welled up in the woman's eyes, but there was nothing she could do.

"Eat my meat!"

The man lying on the grass bunk suddenly opened his mouth and said loudly, "Yueniang, go get a kitchen knife and cut a piece of my meat."
