I rely on talking to brush the copy

Le Jing thought about the topic of the new theme for a long time. It must be down-to-earth enough so that the people can feel involved, and it must be interesting enough so that readers can retain it.

Finally, the most important thing is that this theme must allow readers to accept his ideas subtly.

Le Jing thought about it for a long time and finally remembered the theme of time travel.

Since the great writer Mark Twain wrote the world's first time travel novel "A Connecticut Yankee in the King's Court of Arthur", time travel novels have been flourishing for more than a hundred years and have opened up different genres. Among them, the most popular time travel novels in China are time travel novels that travel through the past to participate in or even change history. The originator of this type of time travel novel is generally recognized as Huang Da Lao's "A Step into the Qin Dynasty".

The protagonist Xiang Shaolong traveled through the Warring States Period to get to know and interact with various historical figures, and the story of participating in and influencing history was no less than a powerful stimulant for the people at that time, and it was still talked about with relish after many years.

Time-travel writing is common in later generations and has become a commonplace routine. However, in this era of underdeveloped entertainment, it is still an absolutely novel subject matter that will definitely stand out and become well-known.

In the era of entertainment explosion in later generations, Le Jing has indeed read many time-travel historical novels. In many excellent works, the authors will make reasonable deductions on the development of history after the change and make reasonable discussions on the subsequent political and cultural development. It is quite thought-provoking and interesting to read.

For popular novels, being interesting is enough.

This is the story that Le Jing wants to write, a magnificent, ups and downs, twists and turns, but interesting time-travel historical epic story.

He wants to make an immature discussion of the country's political system in the article, and he wants to convey his advanced experience gained a hundred years later to readers through the plot of the novel.

Le Jing is a black man who believes in the famous saying of Qidian governance - if you travel through the Qing Dynasty without rebellion, you will be like a chrysanthemum with an electric drill.

So according to his idea, he really wanted to write a time-travel novel about traveling through the Ming Dynasty to change history and build the Iron-blooded Ming Dynasty, but it was just a thought, he was still rational.

After all, this is the Republic of China, a country at a historical turning point.

Reform and respect for the ancients, enlightenment and conservatism, advancement and backwardness, civilization and barbarism... all kinds of contradictory characteristics coexist in this country, and the intersection and collision have produced dazzling sparks of thinking, and finally formed another ideological reform movement in Chinese history after the Hundred Schools of Thought.

Because of the times and the amount of historical knowledge reserves, Le Jing is destined to be unable to write a time-travel novel about traveling through the real dynasty to change the real history. First, the Qing Dynasty has just fallen not long ago, and many old and young people are still active on the political stage. Le Jing dared to write such a "**" (regardless of whether newspapers and magazines dare to publish it), and they would dare to send someone to assassinate him the next moment; second, Le Jing has not systematically studied relevant knowledge in modern times, and his current knowledge reserves are nothing but a show of skill in front of those cultural masters, and rashly writing them is nothing but loopholes that make people laugh.

In this case, the fictional era is a good choice. Because it is a fiction, all the settings in it are based on Le Jing's description, so there is no need to worry about the criticism of the nitpicking party. Moreover, the fictional dynasty will reduce the sensitivity of the content of the article, so that his article will not easily become ** and be blocked by the government.

He also thought of the title of the article, which is called "The Rise of the Dynasty". The name is very simple and crude, just to cater to the market and the audience. In fact, if it were not for the fear of being banned by the government as an anti-book, Le Jing would prefer to name it "After the Successful Rebellion".

As for the selection of the protagonist, in order to avoid being too shocking, Le Jing plans to set it as a professor at a university in the Republic of China, a pioneer of the times whose theoretical propositions are incompatible with the current era, but who shines in the time and space after crossing.

After determining the general outline of the article, Le Jing's ideas suddenly flowed, and he wrote for a whole morning in one breath. If Li Shuran hadn't called him to eat, he wouldn't have known that so much time had passed!

He hammered his sore waist, and when he stood up, he felt dizzy and dizzy, and couldn't help but sigh about the weakness of this body again in his heart. He is only sixteen years old now, but his physical fitness is not as good as some middle-aged people in their forties.

He picked up the manuscript and blew the wet ink on it, and put it away carefully. He has achieved a lot this morning and has written nearly five thousand words. In this way, he can probably save up 50,000 manuscripts in a week.

As a long serialized popular novel, "The Rise of Dynasty" naturally cannot be arbitrarily updated weekly like "Rat Eyes Look Down on People". Le Jing set the standard for it to be updated daily. This will be a heavy burden on his body, so now he can only try his best to save more manuscripts.

"The Rise of Dynasty" is a simple and rough refreshing article that naturally does not match the style of "Literary Newspaper", so this time he plans to use another pen name to submit to other newspapers. He has already chosen the newspaper, "Peking Novel News", which is a local newspaper in Peking, which publishes many popular popular novels in series.

Le Jing had read the articles several times when he was free. The articles were all-encompassing, including the romantic novels of the Mandarin Duck and Butterfly School, historical novels of the Three Kingdoms and Water Margin, and chivalrous novels of the Liangshan Heroes. Le Jing also saw early martial arts novels similar to the style of Huanzhu Louzhu. In fact, the martial arts novels of later generations by Jin Da Lao were also inspired by the predecessors such as Huanzhu Louzhu and developed on their basis.

It can be seen that Le Jing's article is perfect for their newspaper.

Le Jing put down his pen and walked to the dining room to prepare for dinner, but frowned the moment he saw the food. Five dishes and one soup, with meat and vegetables, looked very rich, but the smell was very bland.

Zhou Da's family was just poor people who had fled from famine. They couldn't even get enough food. It was obviously too much for Zhou Da's wife to have good cooking skills. Zhou Da's wife's cooking skills were limited to cooking rice. There were not as many condiments as in later generations, so the taste was imaginable. Even though Le Jing would give Zhou Da's wife some advice from time to time these days, cooking skills could not be mastered overnight. Le Jing was not a person who valued the desire for food, but he was already thinking about finding another cook.

Le Jing was already tired after a whole morning, and he was too lazy to eat these unappetizing meals, so he waved his hand and said to the little girl holding the bowl: "Come on, brother will take you to a restaurant."

Li Shuran asked: "Then the food..."

"Let Zhou Da and the others eat it."

Li Shuran was still a little hesitant: "It's not the New Year, it's too expensive to eat out."

Le Jing was stunned, and then began to reflect silently. Since coming to Peking, he first fell seriously ill, and then began to stay indoors to write and recuperate. Li Shuran still had to go to school. Usually, the little girl also understood his health and never asked him to go out to play. The brother and sister didn't go out to play properly. The little girl lived a stingy life because of this, probably because she was scared by his serious illness.

"It's just a meal, and there is still this little money." Le Jing deliberately said in a nonchalant tone: "Your brother has earned a lot of money from writing during this period, and it's time to enjoy it."

Li Shuran seemed to have some concerns, but she didn't say anything after all.

This time, Le Jing planned to take Li Shuran for a good stroll and play. To put it bluntly, he was going out to spend money. He had saved nearly three hundred dollars in royalties during this period. Although it was not much, it was more than enough for him to go out and splurge. It was also because he was too careless about Li Shuran that he did not realize that Li Shuran had been raised to be a little petty. In Le Jing's view, it doesn't matter how much money you have, but you must have ambition and vision. These two things determine a person's future pattern and achievements.

So as soon as he went out, Le Jing asked a rickshaw to take them to an international hotel. Li Shuran stood at the door, almost staring at the luxurious decoration inside, and the blond and blue-eyed foreign waiters coming and going inside also made her particularly uneasy.

She carefully pulled Le Jing's sleeve, blushing and saying shyly: "Brother, this restaurant is too expensive..."

Le Jing took her hand, and said in a soft but firm voice: "Hold your head and chest high, there is nothing to be afraid of. Although this restaurant is expensive, we can afford it."

He walked into the restaurant calmly with the little girl, sat down at the seat under the guidance of the waiter, and asked the waiter for the menu in fluent English to start ordering. Infected by Le Jing's calm attitude, Li Shuran gradually became less embarrassed. Although she still looked a little unnatural, she was no longer so timid.

After the appetizers came, Le Jing naturally began to teach Li Shuran about the etiquette of Western food, and deliberately told a few jokes, which successfully made Li Shuran relax.

When the brother and sister were talking and laughing, the three words "night watchman" floated into Le Jing's ears.

The brother and sister were silent at the same time. Then they heard two guests at the back table talking about Le Jing's article.

"If you ask me, this night watchman is quite clever. Look at the content of his articles. They are all about sensitive or taboo issues. He is trying to attract fame!"

"Brother Zichen is right. In my opinion, the night watchman is just a small-time opportunist. His articles can only be circulated in the Eight Great Hutongs and cannot be published in the public."

The two smiled at each other, and the topic became more and more inappropriate.

"I think the night watchman is also a playboy. The story of the young prostitute may be written by him for one of his old lovers!"

"That's right! I don't know how many prostitutes in the Eight Great Hutongs have cried because of this article. If the night watchman goes to a prostitute now, the prostitute may even give him money!"

Seeing that the two people's words were becoming more and more inappropriate, Le Jing felt quite fresh and funny.

The sourness of these two lemon boys was about to spread to them. Since ancient times, there has been a strange circle in China. Men despise prostitutes, but they regard winning the favor of prostitutes as a topic of boasting. □□ is a glorious "decoration" for their male charm.

One thing surprised Le Jing. He didn't expect his article to be so popular among prostitutes, and many prostitutes really understood it. This was a surprise to him.

Le Jing had a good mentality and didn't care about other people's sour words. After all, Li Shuran was still young, and her cheeks were red with anger. Tears were already in her eyes, and she trembled and said: "They..."

"What are you talking about!" A clear and beautiful rebuke interrupted Li Shuran's words, "I don't allow you to slander Mr. Night Watchman like this!"

Le Jing turned around curiously, and saw a charming woman in a bright red cheongsam standing up from the right table of the two men, stepping on high heels and walking aggressively to the two people who said bad things about Le Jing behind his back.

The two of them were silent, staring at each other for a few seconds, and then one of them bowed to the woman, "May I ask what is the relationship between this lady and the night watchman?"

"No relationship." The woman raised her chin proudly, and a cold smile appeared on her bright red lips: "I just admire your character."

So Brother Zichen sneered: "Since you have nothing to do with the night watchman, what qualifications do you have to talk to us? You have the mouth on our body, aren't you too overbearing?"

The woman snorted coldly, "You slandered the innocence of a gentleman out of thin air. Can't I help him when I see injustice?"

"You said the night watchman was innocent, and I said he was a rat in the gutter and was not worthy of being seen!" Brother Zichen did not give in: "Otherwise, why would you hide your head and tail and dare not even meet people?"

"You! That's because the sir is low-key! Do you think everyone is a villain who fights for fame and fortune like you!" The woman looked him up and down with contempt and sneered: "People like you who only dare to secretly say bad things about others behind their backs are not even worthy of carrying shoes with the sir!"

Another person who had been silent all the time suddenly asked: "This lady is so protective of the night watchman, isn't she also a girl from the Eight Great Hutongs?"

This sentence was the most vicious humiliation for women in the Republic of China at that time. But the woman tucked a strand of curly hair behind her ear and actually smiled coquettishly: "My nickname is Bai Shaoyao, and this gentleman looks very familiar. Could he be a frequent customer of one of my sisters?"

This girl turned out to be Bai Shaoyao, the famous prostitute who sent a letter to Le Jing that day!
