travel through the past to be emperor

Chapter 124 Grandpa Likes Vulgarity
The voices of all kinds of discussions filled his ears, which made Zhao Fei feel like he was drinking in a bar at the moment.

In fact, although Zhao Fei is not in the bar at the moment, he is in a tavern, a very popular tavern in Chang'an City.

It was night, but the streets and surroundings were full of people.

Although there is a curfew in Chang'an, at the beginning Zhao Fei thought that the curfew meant that people were not allowed to go out after dinner, but later he realized that although this is ancient times, people in Chang'an also pay attention to fashion, and the curfew refers to after supper .

Zhao Fei roughly calculated the time, and the curfew time is roughly equivalent to after ten o'clock in the evening in later generations.

From sunset to before curfew, there is Chang'an Night Market.

Chang'an has a large population and the streets are bustling. Although it is night, the lights are bright everywhere and it is very lively.

On the one hand, Zhao Fei came out for the sake of getting some fresh air, he was a bit bored after staying in the palace for a long time, on the other hand, he wanted to see what was going on in Chang'an City regarding the recent developments of the imperial court.

According to the official level, that is, the emperor personally went to the people to collect public opinion information.

The best places to collect information are taverns and Qinlou. Although Zhao Fei wanted to go to this brothel, he couldn't hold back his face. After all, there were a large number of guards behind him. It is really big news that the emperor visits brothels.

So Zhao Fei inquired with Chen San and came to this tavern.

Since Chu Xuan left, Zhao Fei transferred Chen San to his side. This guy was originally a big and three thick man with infinite strength, like a door god. Now he has been hanging around in Jinyiwei for a while and learned some martial arts essentials. Even more like a fish in water, according to what Chu Xuan said before leaving, Chen San's martial arts are no longer inferior to him.

So with such a master of martial arts with him, Zhao Fei didn't worry about his own safety after Chu Xuan left.

The only thing that troubled Zhao Fei was that due to various reasons, Chen San couldn't get away from him for a long time, which made it impossible for the Chang'an city management department that he had always wanted to establish to be implemented.

It is said that the tavern where Zhao Fei was staying was a place where scholars in the capital gathered. These scholars were full and had nothing to do every day, so they would be arty and recite poems in this tavern, and then criticize current affairs.

It is said that some court officials often come here to discuss important court affairs with scholars in person.

After Zhao Fei heard about it, he took a group of guards and ran over to see what these scholars were talking about the court. This tavern really lived up to its reputation. There were two or three well-dressed people sitting on the tables, and their speeches were elegant. Guy, I know that most of these people are scholars.

But what Zhao Fei expected was that when these scholars talked about the court, they didn't have a few nice words. They basically scolded Zhao Fei for being stupid and a fool, and then lamented why he was not a member of the court. Make all kinds of wise decisions to benefit the people of the whole country.

Zhao Fei was not angry when he saw how unbearable these guys scolded him, but he was amused, no matter when, this scholar is similar, he always likes to be that keyboard politician.

Zhao Fei shook his head secretly, a faint smile flashed across his face.

But even though he was not angry on the face, Zhao Fei still kept in his heart the looks of those who scolded the most. As the saying goes, it is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge for ten years. As the emperor, these scholars will always fall on him in the future in hand.

Zhao Fei winked at Chen San, and Chen San stood up, wearing a loose blue shirt on Chen San's body, which made Chen San look really mighty and extraordinary, as expected, people rely on clothes.

"Several young masters have invited you." Chen San walked to a table where discussions were fierce, and bowed to each other.

The conversation at the table was intense, and Chen San had a loud voice, and told Chen San to keep his voice down. He was shocked, and all of them shut up and looked at Chen San.

The crown-like young master looked at Chen San suspiciously, then cupped his hands and said, "This man seems a bit unfamiliar, doesn't he seem to be from Chang'an?"

"Master, you have good eyesight. I'm from the north. I just arrived in Chang'an today, so the gentlemen don't recognize me." Chen San read the book for a few days, but now he speaks vaguely.

"North? There seems to be a war going on somewhere? Young Master, are you here in Chang'an?"

"I came to Chang'an for the exam." Chen San smiled and said, "My surname is Chen. I wonder if some young masters are willing to give me my name."

Then Chu Xuan and the people on the table exchanged names, anyway, they were all passers-by, A, B, C, D, and Zhao Fei didn't bother to write down the names of these few people.

After notifying each other of their names, Chen San laughed and said, "I just came to Chang'an today, and seeing that the young masters all look like dragons and phoenixes, and they are discussing fiercely, I can't help but want to make friends with them. Don't despise me for being abrupt."

"Where where..."

"I've been looking forward to it for a long time..."

After some polite words, Chen San said again: "I saw a few young masters discussing enthusiastically before, I don't know what it is."

In fact, Chen San was playing stupid, if he really didn't know what was going on, he wouldn't have gone there.

Zhao Fei noticed the few people on this table as soon as he came in. There was no way, the other tables were all shouting at their mothers, but only this table was arguing. Dry goods.

So Zhao Fei wanted to test it out, taught Chen San a few words, and motioned Chen San to go.

This Chen San is becoming more and more clever nowadays, just like the fool who suddenly became enlightened, his simple and honest appearance is very trustworthy, but only a person like Zhao Fei who understands the details knows that the current Chen San really treats you After selling it, you still count the money for him.

Zhao Fei's method of probing is very simple, that is to ask Chen San to reveal some inside information to see what attitudes these people have.

As for how Chen San, a candidate from other places, knew so much inside information, it was naturally because the family didn't have any friends or relatives who were officials.

There is a saying, not to say: Your matter is very simple. My aunt’s son’s uncle’s nephew’s grandpa’s grandson’s wife’s aunt’s sister’s son-in-law does this. I just need a phone call and the matter will be resolved.

While Chen San and these scholars were pushing glasses and changing glasses, they began to slowly reveal the news, and then they started a lively conversation when everyone was surprised.

As an emperor, Zhao Fei didn't have much time. He came to the tavern every day to observe the customs and listen to the public opinion. If he wanted to get what he wanted in a short time, he had to guide the direction of public opinion in a timely manner, so Chen San Came into being.

It's just that despite being guided, the various discussions in the tavern still made Zhao Fei frown.

Sure enough, guiding public opinion is not something that happens overnight.

Until he left the tavern, Zhao Fei was still thinking about how to gain a dominant position in public opinion. Zhao Fei, who came from later generations, paid more attention to the role of public opinion than ordinary people.

As far as the current situation is concerned, the public opinion of the country is in the hands of scholars. They are all scholars, and they are deeply trusted and respected by the people from the central government to the local government. It must be firmly held in the hands of the imperial court, otherwise the country will be in great trouble.

And Zhao Fei himself gradually realized at this moment that it was indeed a little thoughtless for him to expel Zheng Tao's military status.

But if you did it, you did it. It is useless to regret it now, and it is impossible for you to take back your life. In the eyes of others, you may become a guilty conscience, and there may be some strange remarks that spread.

Zhao Fei's eyeballs rolled quickly, thinking carefully about how to control and guide the public opinion among scholars.

In this world, the fastest and most effective way to change the current public opinion atmosphere is to use other events to divert the public's attention.

The diversion of sight can only treat the symptoms, but not the root cause.

For Zhao Fei, if it is just to treat the symptoms, he can do it with the authority of his emperor, but if it is to treat the root cause, he needs to think of a good way.

As he walked, Zhao Fei suddenly felt that the flow of people around him had increased a lot, and he couldn't help but raise his head, only to find that many people around him were walking into a small alley with excitement.

"What is this for?" Zhao Fei asked Chen San beside him.

Chen San shook his head in embarrassment, and said, "My lord, I don't know anything."

"Really? The crime of deceiving the emperor will lead to decapitation!" Zhao Fei looked at Chen San curiously, seeing how the boy looked around, and it didn't seem like he didn't know.

Chen San's face turned pale, and he struggled a little, then whispered a few words in Zhao Fei's ear.

"Really?" Zhao Fei's eyes brightened instantly.

Chen San didn't speak, just nodded.

"I'll go and have a look, you wait here." Zhao Fei said.

"No, son, I want to protect your safety." Chen San shook his head at that time, expressing that he must always be by Zhao Fei's side.

Zhao Fei didn't appreciate Chen San's loyalty, but whispered: "It's not impossible for you to go, just don't follow me, this kind of thing, let you watch, how embarrassing I am!"

"But." Chen San hesitated. To a certain extent, this kind of thing is indeed a bit embarrassing, but Chen San was worried that Zhao Fei would be in danger, so he couldn't help but look tangled.

Zhao Fei didn't wait for Chen San to finish his entanglement, he strode directly along the crowd to the alley, and said as he walked, "You can go, but stay away from me."

In this way, by the time Zhao Fei arrived at a large shed that was apparently erected temporarily, Chen San was already three steps away from Zhao Fei.

Crowds of threes and threes walked into the shed, and Zhao Fei also walked over excitedly.

"What's the performance here?" Zhao Fei grinned at the welcome guests in front of the door.

"Whatever you want to see, there's what's inside." Yingbin also grinned, stretched out his hand to pat his left cheek, and said, "If it doesn't look good, hit me hard."

"Hey, it's interesting." Zhao Fei laughed.

At this time, a slightly rough and obviously excited voice sounded in Zhao Fei's ear, but the voice was not for Zhao Fei, but for the welcome guests.

"Is today's performance vulgar?" The one who spoke was a young man with a big beard and a tender face. Seeing Zhao Fei staring at him, he said in a rough voice, "What do you think I am doing?"

"Your beard is pretty." Zhao Fei was speechless for a while, and forced out such a sentence.

"Nervous!" The bearded man glanced at Zhao Fei disdainfully, then looked at the welcome guest and said, "I'm asking you something, isn't the program in it vulgar?"

"Vulgar, absolutely vulgar, no money if not vulgar." Yingbin laughed loudly.

"Okay, I like vulgarity." The bearded man casually threw a piece of silver into the hand of the welcome guest, and then entered the shed.

Seeing this, Zhao Fei quickly threw a piece of silver and walked in.

Only Yingbin shook the money in his hand with a happy face, and said with a smile: "Yo, I'm lucky today, I ran into two high-ranking customers."
