Wushuang Wudi of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 94
"Okay, okay! Next, it's the banquet time I'm waiting for!" After seeing off the newcomers, all the civil servants and generals who came to watch the ceremony immediately let go of their arms, and Wei Xu was the first to shout.

Although Lu Bu controlled the imperial court and all the soldiers and horses, the internal system of this system would naturally not be so harmonious.

The six elite generals, Lu Fang, Li Mo, the high-ranking generals of Lu Bu's immediate army, etc., are Lu Bu's direct descendants, generals faction.When they got together, they were naturally drinking and talking about military affairs. They all clamored that they wanted to follow Marquis Wen, wipe out the princes from all walks of life, and make meritorious deeds!Of course, there are Gan Ning, Xu Huang, Zhang Liao, Xu Rong, Li Su, Hu Zhen, Gao Shun and others who are leading the army abroad.

Liu Ye, Xun You, Zhong Yao, Du Ji, Zheng Yu, Li Ru, Jia Xu, etc. are Lv Bu's semi-directed descendants. They don't follow Lv Bu all the time. They often join halfway, get reused, and hold important positions in the system. Civil servants.They are naturally more restrained. The things they talk about are all poems and songs. They will not easily reveal their true inner thoughts. These are old old sticks in the officialdom!Of course, there are also some county magistrates sent abroad such as Wei Ping.

There are still some who are not direct descendants, but are members of this system. They are Shangshu Yang Zan who took refuge in Lu Bu, Tingwei Zhang Zhong, Huangmen Ling Liu Zhao, a large number of local officials, a group of courtiers who were promoted, etc. .They also call themselves gentlemen, so naturally they are also talking about elegant things.

Apart from these, there are other officials who are neutral but obey orders. However, they can only follow orders and do not have much strength.

In the end, Wang Yun, Huangfusong and other people who were included in the hostile elements and suffered a lot of blows, they have been far away from the court, and they are on the edge. Some were even dismissed, and some were killed.

In any case, to put it bluntly, these officials are all representatives of the gentry. However, Lu Bu's advantage is that these people are not considered to be aristocratic families, which will help them evolve into the gentry landlord class in the future and realize the historical goal. progress.As for ordinary people, they are all outside the General's Mansion.Coming to this era, it is natural to obey the laws of social development of this era, and this cannot be changed by Lu Bu.

After experiencing double happiness, Lu Bu naturally lived a chic life, and he was happy, smiling every day.In this way, time passed unknowingly, the end of winter passed, and in January 193, it was almost the Spring Festival.

The Spring Festival, but a traditional Chinese festival, is an important carrier of Chinese culture, probably formed in the Han Dynasty.

As the first New Year here, Lu Bu also raised the importance of it.

"Except for the time when I married Wen Ji, I haven't had a special banquet for so long. All the officials in the court and the generals in the army! Why don't we take advantage of the opportunity of the Spring Festival to hold an event to raise everyone's attention?" Enthusiasm, by the way, spread and carry forward China's excellent culture!" Lu Bu thought.

Although eating, drinking and having fun requires money, there is nothing wrong with doing it once in a while, as there is still some money.However, it can't be too extravagant, so that the people below will follow suit one by one!Lu Bu thought, he considered more comprehensively.When the kings build large-scale construction projects, it will naturally waste the people and waste money, and it will especially bring down the atmosphere of the world. Naturally, people everywhere will be full of resentment and sorrow, and the result is obvious.

From the very beginning of the Jin Dynasty, Shi Chong and Wang Kai competed for wealth and wealth. This was more terrifying than natural disasters. However, the emperor was not vigilant and took pleasure in it, which led to the decay of the entire dynasty. Later, the Eight Kings War As a result of the chaos, the Jin Dynasty lost a large piece of land north of the Yangtze River, and lingered in the southeast corner.

"Then Benhou will also come to do some political achievement projects!" Lu Bu joked, with a plan.

During the Spring Festival, the most important thing is to have the atmosphere.And if you want to have an atmosphere, you must change the look of Chang'an City.Lu Bu planned to put up bright red lanterns on both sides of more than a dozen main roads in Chang'an City; smaller streets would be pasted with pieces of red cloth.Once the number of these things increases, the flavor of the year will come out.

However, at this time, paper lanterns have not yet appeared on a large scale!Although Cai Lun invented paper, the emergence of paper and its large-scale popularization are two different things.Only lanterns made of red cloth can be used.Fortunately, its production is very simple, and the materials are only bamboo and cloth.

In this way, the cost is not expensive, let alone extravagant.Moreover, the disbursement of these funds is all circulated to the handicraftsmen in Chang'an West City.When the war broke out, the life of craftsmen and artists was even more difficult. This is also a good thing.

Next, it is to prepare several sets of programs.

Since we want to use bamboo to make lanterns, we simply invent a "firecracker". This is not a firecracker of gunpowder, but a bamboo made into knots. When the time comes, put it on the fire and it will burst open. Come on, make a noise.

Fireworks and firecrackers are important programs. When the time comes, let's give some guidance. Isn't the invention of gunpowder just a matter of course?

There are also dragon and lion dances, which are powerful events that make Chang'an lively.Lu Bu planned to find those soldiers just to find some relaxing fun for their long-term battle.Blindly training, fighting, and killing people, soldiers are also human beings, not machines, and they also need proper relaxation and entertainment.

The highlight of the general's mansion is poetry, singing and dancing. This is a relatively elegant event, suitable for those court officials to participate in and watch.In the Han Dynasty, literati liked to compose Fu to express their thoughts and emotions.There is also poetry that emerged at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty. Cao Cao is an expert in this area, but Lu Bu does not understand it.

We don't understand, but we also want to come here to play with words, arty!At least, the civil servants under him cannot lose to the princes of the Kanto in terms of momentum!Otherwise, the princes of the Kanto have always accused themselves of being warriors who can only fight, making the scribes mistakenly think that they cannot govern the country, wouldn't it be a loss?

In terms of singing and dancing, well, Diao Chan is an expert, but Lu Bu would never let his own woman dance for his subordinates to see. There is no such thing in this world.Have you ever seen an imperial concubine perform for her courtiers?This matter is left to the maids and the dedicated singers.

After the show is over, the last thing that is indispensable is a feast, with food that has the taste of the New Year.

In the city, laughter, singing and dancing, joyous;

This is what Lu Bu wanted to achieve. In order to achieve this goal, the entire General's Mansion immediately took action intensively and carried out various preparations.Du Ji immediately became the busiest person in Chang'an City.The general's mansion spent a lot of money, and the speed surprised Lu Bu.

In the blink of an eye, it was the day before the Spring Festival, New Year's Eve.
