In the early Tang Dynasty, the people were simple and simple.
This sentence is not just an empty saying recorded in books by historians.
At least Xiao Han has always thought that apart from the legendary era of ancient sages who never closed their doors at night and never picked up lost things on the road, the Zhenguan period under Xiao Lizi's rule was definitely a rare enlightened and prosperous era.
Moreover, Xiao Han has always been skeptical about the beautiful life of the ancient sages!
He knows that the development of society must go from bad to good! From isolation to civilization! There is no reason why it was so good in ancient times but not so good later! Since everything was fine in ancient times, why was there nothing in ancient times?
Therefore, in the end, Xiao Han still felt that the Tang Dynasty was the best era.
The people are hard-working and the officials are honest.
Without the servile servants of the Braided Dynasty, without the distinction between superior and inferior in the Ming Dynasty, except for some decadent and solidified millennium-old families, the interactions between people are so peaceful and harmonious. Even Liu Hongji, who is the best in the dynasty, is not You can sit together with a gangster leader like Boss Ma and chat with each other.
On this point, even Xiao Han, a modern man who advocates freedom and equality, cannot match people's thoughts at this time.
Therefore, as a good friend, Liu Hongji severely criticized his pedantic thinking! And tell him with practical actions: It is wrong to be divorced from the mass base! "Having fun with the people" is true happiness!
"Are you going to Lao Ma's house here? You are obviously looking for a "horse" to ride on!"
Xiao Han, who was caught making a slip of the tongue and was severely punished, but couldn't refute, could only stand angrily and watch Liu Hongji and the horse gang leader wink as they walked out of the inn.
To be honest, when Xiao Han saw Liu Hongji's retreating figure, he said he was not envious and had no intention of moving. That was pure nonsense!
He is not a saint, let alone a moral gentleman! Counting the days, it had been almost a year since he came out, and he had never seen a sow. As a man with normal physical and mental health, and still a young man, Xiao Han was also lonely.
However, although Xiao Han has never had the consciousness to protect himself like a jade for Xue Pan, he felt a sense of resistance in his heart when he thought of those prostitutes in brothels with jade arms and pillows for thousands of people and a bit of red lips for thousands of people to taste.
Not to mention, there are no protection measures in this era. If you accidentally get tricked, the offended civil servant will rush to the study in excitement, and then write down a heavy note in the history book: "Miyuan County Hou was stained with flowers and willows because of his prostitution, and eventually died without treatment..."
Every time he thought of this, Xiao Han's newly eager heart immediately turned into nothing and disappeared without a trace, as if a basin of ice water had been poured on it.
Alas, there is nothing I can do. Compared with my life and reputation, I can’t bear it! No big deal, just ask the fifth girl for help!
"Why doesn't Xiao Hou go out with them?"
In the inn, the sophisticated shopkeeper Sun understood the purpose of Liu Hongji's trip with just one glance. What surprised him was that the young Xiao Hou could resist the temptation and did not go out with those two people. Instead, he walked towards the room honestly, which was somewhat beyond his expectation.
Well, he is indeed worthy of being a handsome young man. Even a rotten old man like him, who is about to die, has to admire his determination from the bottom of his heart!
However, the old shopkeeper himself did not expect that his admiration would be ruthlessly broken before long.
Lonely, empty and cold, Xiao Han took heavy steps to his room on the second floor.
After opening the door and walking in, he suddenly felt something was wrong. Then he raised his head sharply and looked at a person sitting somewhere in the room.
It was a man, a man with a handsome face and about the same age as himself! Sitting there quietly, a pair of eyes as bright as stars looked at him with a smile but not a smile!
"Yin...Yin Can!"
He was startled and almost screamed at the sudden appearance of the uninvited guest. Xiao Han quickly covered his mouth and glared at Yin Can: "When did you come? No! How did you get in? !”
Before he finished his sentence, Xiao Han, who finally reacted, felt cold in his heart again and subconsciously looked outside!
He returned to Chang'an on this trip, although there was no fanfare, but after the last incident where Liu Hongji was hit with a brick, several imperial guards felt guilty. From then on, wherever they went, they must arrange people to prepare for defense first, so as to save money. A similar situation occurs again.
And under the arrangements of those extremely professional Ouchi guards, how could it be possible for Yin Can to touch his room without anyone noticing? If it were another assassin, wouldn't he have already gone to the underworld to meet Xiaobai?
Thinking of this, Xiao Han's face suddenly turned pale, and he wanted to strangle the imperial guards to death. He didn't know how they protected Xiao Lizi in the palace. According to the current view, Xiao Lizi can survive until At this time, it is really not easy!
"Haha, don't worry, your men are indeed very powerful!" Yin Can sat in the room, playing with an exquisite small teacup in his hand, as if he could see through Xiao Han's mind, and said to Xiao Han slowly: "Even I was almost discovered by them, don’t worry, ordinary thieves and strongmen will never get close to this place."
"Then you're in?" Xiao Han was slightly relieved when he heard Yin Can's words, and then said without any politeness.
"That's because I'm not an ordinary little thief and a strong man!" Yin Can was not annoyed at all by Xiao Han's accusations and scoldings. He twirled the tea cup in his hand twice before replying with a smile.
It was only then that Xiao Han discovered that the teacup in his hand was not empty, but filled with more than half of the tea. However, no matter how much Yin Can flipped and played with the tea, not a drop of it was spilled.
"Wang Po is selling melons, selling herself and boasting!" When Xiao Han saw this, he cursed sourly, turned around and closed the door, came to sit down opposite Yin Can, then picked up another teacup from the table, filled it with water, and drank. And then, he looked at Yin Can provocatively: "Even if you play tricks on a cup, it's just a tool to hold water! Seriously filling water for people to drink is the real business! Don't think about not doing your job all day long. ! Running around, if it accidentally breaks, it will be too late to cry!"
"Oh?" Yin Can glanced at Xiao Han with a half-smile, then slowly stopped what he was doing, and finally put the tea cup on the table: "If the cup can only be used to hold water, then you, the idler, are not here Why are you going to Lingnan when you are sleeping in Chang'an?"
"I, I..." Xiao Han was speechless for a moment, and after a while, he said angrily: "A gentleman has no ability, and there is no right way! A person as good as me naturally wants to help the world! How can I be like some mediocre people? , Just hide away for leisure?"
