How far is the Song Dynasty from us? It's about a thousand years. How close is the Song Dynasty to us? The orange-steamed crab recorded in " Shanjiaqinggong " still tastes delicious now. The distance between us and the Song Dynasty has never been a matter of time. As long as we want to understand, we can be very close.
"Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains" Partial
If my friend is like me, she first entered the "Song Dynasty pit", Li Bai recommends Meng Yuanlao's "Tokyo Dream Hualu" to everyone. The content of this book can be said to be deeply involved in all aspects of the lives of the people of Bianliang .
Tokyo Bianliang is like Huaxu's dream
When I read "Tokyo Dream Hualu", Li Bai had just entered the "Song Dynasty pit". While reading, he sighed, "Is this really the life of the people of Kaifeng a thousand years ago? Should I be so advanced and enjoy it so well"!
The Tokyo Bianliang recorded in this book is like a shining pearl in a peaceful and prosperous era, shining brightly. The emperor's feet "festige and charm, and human nature is harmonious". Carving cars and BMWs compete on the Tianjie and the Imperial Road, willow roads, flower roads, teahouses and wine shops are bustling with laughter and joy. Bianjing city was one of the best metropolis in the world at that time!
《Tokyo Dream Hualu》
》 However, I felt a little sad when I read it the second time. author Meng Yuanlao lives in Jiangzuo. Seeing the devastated mountains and rivers, the children around him no longer know the prosperity of Kyoto back then. He was extremely sad and wrote this "Dream of Tokyo".
"Dream Hualu" is a Northern Song Dynasty old man's remembrance and longing for the capital Bianjing, which he once looked up to and was obsessed with. In his heart, everything in Tokyo Bianliang City was like a dream in Huaxu. When he woke up, he seemed to be a dream and felt true. If he didn't leave anything, he was afraid that the little thoughts in his heart would no longer exist.
"Qingping River Map" Partial
Compared with the grace and luxury of the "predecessors" of the Tang Dynasty, the Song Dynasty was elegant and unique in the eyes of many people. Just like the controversial TV series " Qingpingle " in the first half of 2020, is covered with a layer of "Morandi color" filters everywhere, neither fighting nor scrambling, but elegant everywhere.
After reading "Tokyo Dream Hualu", readers will find that it has successfully opened a different " Dasong tone" for us. There is no love, hate, and affection between officials and ladies in this tone, no guidance from the "Northern Song Dynasty Tiantuan", nor the feather fan and scarf of literati. is just the urban life of the people of the Song Dynasty, which is bustling and bustling, super lively, super punk and super cool!
Festive stills in "Qing Ping Le"
Song people have a lot of liver visits night market , in the morning "punk health preservation"
In the middle of the Northern Song Dynasty, the market and curfew systems began to slowly loosen, and the entire streets of Bianliang City began to "live". The nightlife of Bianliang City is very rich. After the nightfall of , the tile houses and night market restaurants began to open , welcoming tourists, merchants and local people from all over the world. shows a different charm of the Song Dynasty's never-sleeping city.
The two most popular night markets in "Tokyo Dream Hualu" are the Shuqiao Night Market and the Maxing Street Night Market. The location of Zhouqiao Night Market is "Go out of Zhuquemen and until Longjin Bridge". To the south of Zhouqiao, there is a street of rice, meat, and dried jerky. Don't glance at it, otherwise your legs will not be able to walk.
"Along the River During the Qingming Festival"
Compared with the special food streets that sell stinky tofu, big sausages and Huazhiwans in the country, there are many snacks in the night market in the Song Dynasty. Some of them have made famous, such as Meijia Lujia Geese Duck Chicken, Chicken and Rabbit, Belly Eel, Bun Chicken, etc., but fifteen articles. Don’t fill your stomach in one family, otherwise many of the fried sheep white intestines, fried frozen fish heads, ginger, fermented ginger, red shredded red shreds, spicy ginger, spicy radish, etc. will be gone.
Whether it is the night market in Zhouqiao or Maxing Street, it is normal and fixed, and the snacks sold are "flexible".In summer, sells sausage, chicken skin sausage, crystal soap, lychee paste, apricot slices, chewy sweets, golden silk plums, etc., all of which are packed with plum red boxes, so you can eat while walking; 5 days in winter, so you have to eat some "hard goods" when you go out to visit the night market to keep warm. So "milk chews" such as plate rabbits, roasted pork skin, fried clips, and pig internal organs are mainstream snacks, and there is no problem for you to eat until midnight.
Maxing Street Night Market is full of shopping malls, and representative shops of North and South Food can be found here. "The night market is till the third update, and the fifth update is open again" , a city that never sleeps. is when you work hard until the third update, and there are still people selling tea with bottles on the street. While you are experiencing liver damage, you still need health preservation.
"Healing" overnight, the first thing the people of the Song Dynasty did after getting up in the morning was not to wash their faces and brush their teeth, but to dress and go out. What are you doing with ? is looking for food and people to "wash their faces".
Zhumenqiao market opened at five updates, and the Hu Teng shop has prepared lung filling and fried lungs. The hotel lights and lights to sell porridge and dim sum sets, which are not expensive, twenty-five per set. During this period, the vendor selling facial cleanser was dispatched, and he was comfortable to wash his face. He also sold health care soup and medicines. He also walked to the front of others.
Before you could drink health soup, someone asked, "Do you want to read the tabloids?" Someone came up to chat and said that if you are not full of food in the store, you are willing to "run errands" for you. Let’s have something else. After a while, modern services such as newspaper boys, buying on behalf of others, running errands gathered in restaurants on the streets of Bianjing. The old woman with flowers on her head held a basket and said, “Customer, I have private side dishes here.” Don’t you think it’s “cool” in this life? !
Just like the young people who stay up late and burst into tears now, the Song people with colorful nightlife also have their own attitude towards health preservation. When you stay the most night, you will have a bowl of health soup and a "buffet" in the morning. Their day starts with "punk health preservation".
Luggage tiles, Daxiangguo Temple , the fun land is here, I went to
You should ask what you are now "explosive" young people, besides staying up late, mobile phones, and playing games, what do you like to do? They will tell you, "We also love reading, love going to Panjiayuan, love watching dramas, and get close to nature." What is this? This is punk, allowing ourselves to coexist with "contradictions". Static and movement are the most unique young people.

Xiangguo Temple is one of the most interesting places in Tokyo city , and this is a microcosm of the lives of the people of the Song Dynasty. Everyone’s perception of the temple should be solemn and pure, but Xiangguo Temple is the opposite of the way, opening transactions of thousands of people five times a month, and monks and laymen are having fun together.
Here the playboys can buy rare beasts and also find swords and saddles; the little ladies can buy embroidery, collars, flowers, pearls and jade made by the masters in the surrounding temples; Li Qingzhao , Zhao Mingcheng , etc. can also find books, antiques, etc.
is the most anticipated by Li Bai, and it is also the roasted pork that Princess Huirou loves in "Qing Ping Le". Yes, it is the roasted pork that Liang Huaiji bought for the princess. I have to say that Xiangguo Temple is really "punk". Even now, no one "dares" to sell pork in the temple. Xiangguo Temple, a royal temple in Bianliang City of the Song Dynasty, is very "dares" and has made a name for it.
Northern Song Dynasty writer Yang Dainian is just this bite of pork. faced him and said to the monk, "You are a monk who cooks pork, and the guests shouted every day that they have a bad reputation, so they call it 'Burning Zhuyuan'"! So I left a wonderful aftertaste of queuing up in a temple to buy pork!
In "Qingpingle", Huirou also loves roasting pork
asked me to say that Xiangguo Temple is the real Buddhist temple, opens transactions for thousands of surnames, lists for pork, and the pure mind that is cultivated in this world is the practice that a real monk wants. .
Have you watched all the TV series "Qing Ping Le"? , the once young , Han Qi, where do you like to go the most? that must be a tile house, otherwise how could you hear the words "Cao is ugly" and then pass this to Song Renzong , and in the end, the couple has a disagreement.
The tile houses here are not erotic places that everyone imagines, but are the entertainment and leisure places that ordinary people in Bianliang love to visit on weekdays. The tile house has cultivated and gathered a group of artists and cultural people. The tile house is easy to understand, it is just a wall or fence blocking it, with a stage, an audience seat, and a elegant seat in the middle. If you want to watch the program, you can enter the venue with your ticket. is the same as the small theater that literary and artistic youth like now, and even has a certain inheritance.
In "Qingpingle", Song Renzong and Han Qi and his group have their own "traffic stars" in the tile houses of each tile house. To maintain the curiosity of the audience and fans towards them, you must have some real skills, otherwise the "punk" of the people of the Song Dynasty would not take out their own wallets to buy it.
"Tokyo Menghualu" "Jingwa Geisha Art" mentioned the "top traffic" of various industries in the tile tram in Bianliang City. Zhang Tingsou, who talks about "Mencius's Book", Li Shishi , Xu Xipo, who sings zaju and puppet, Zhang Zhennu, who sings scattered music, Yang Wangjing, who dances, and Liu Baiqin, who specializes in insect ants, etc., are all heavyweight stars in various tile trunks. As for how good people in Bianliang are, "Seeing people in all sheds, every day" .
Among the "top traffic" that everyone looks familiar? Yes, it is the one Li Shishi who was once described in "Water Margin". Through "Tokyo Dream Hualu", we can see that there is indeed such a person in Bianliang. Not only famous prostitutes, but also first-class singing "little singing". Perhaps it is because of this that I have fallen in love with the literary youth Song Huizong . The development of the tile house in a certain sense also affected the entertainment methods of the nobles at that time. On holidays, Jiaofangsi and the military band would practice singing and music outside, and allow the people to watch.
In addition to the tile houses and Daxiangguo Temple, there are many paid "big parks" for the people to play with wealthy families on the outskirts of Bianliang City. If you want to talk about what the people in the Song Dynasty love the most, it is really "playing". They are very punk either playing or on the way to play.
The day after watching the lanterns on the Lantern Festival, many people in the capital left the city. During the Qingming Festival, Cold Food Festival, and Zhongyuan Festival, while going out for sacrifice, they stroll around the big parks in the suburbs, enjoy the scenery, swing, drink, ride a boat, etc. They really enjoy life.
The court will also come to several official activities every year, such as the Winter Solstice, Lantern Festival and the opening of Jinmingchi and Qionglin Garden on March 1st. During the Song Dynasty, the winter solstice was as big as the New Year, and the court also had a holiday. Everyone put on new clothes and took their families to play on the streets. "Tokyo Menghualu" records that many families will "borrow" to spend the winter solstice even if they don't have money. This concept is similar to those of us who use credit cards and Huabei to spend Double Eleven.
Lantern Festival is one of the rare festivals in the capital where the curfew is lifted. The whole nation is carnival, and the lanterns, crowds, BMWs, and fragrant cars on the streets are so lively! is said to have a new "profession", that is, after everyone goes home, a special person picks up beads, jewelry and other items that fall from the heads of ladies and ladies on the streets because of the crowds. Therefore, we can imagine the lively Lantern Festival.
For the Song Dynasty, such as Tokyo Bianliang, do you think it is "okay". Do you still think that the people of the Song Dynasty lived as entangled as Song Renzong in "Qingpingle"? Of course not, they are super attitude and super cool.
Li Bai Taotaotao
To be honest, this article is only one percent, one thousandth, and one thousandth in the "Dream of Tokyo" I saw. The world in the book makes me sigh at the prosperity, romanticism and elegance of the Song Dynasty again and again.
As a Kyoto Bianliang is actually a microcosm of the society of the Song Dynasty. Here we see the peak moment of economic, cultural and technological development in ancient China. At the beginning of
, I mentioned that the overall tone given by the Song Dynasty was that everything had filters covering the "Morandi color system", which were high-end and elegant. So does this conflict with the people in Tokyo who I think have a "punk" temperament when I read "Tokyo Dream Hualu"? Of course, does not conflict, but instead creates a different Song Dynasty charm.
When you think everyone is concerned, Ouyang Xiu began to advocate the new culture movement; when you visit the royal temple Xiangguo Temple and think about how to suppress your inner desires, "Burning Zhuyuan" tells you that there is no conflict between the desires of your mouth and practice. If you have never eaten meat, how can you quit it? While staying up at night to chase the top traffic of the tile house, a bowl of "Ten-full-toned soup" was delivered to you the next morning. You can go out and get rid of carriages, but if you don't want to cook, you can order "takeout", and even if you are married and funerals, you can "rend" someone to get wine. Don't you really think it's cool in the Song Dynasty?
It’s a pity that everything is Meng Yuanlao’s “Huaxu Dream”. It can only be recalled and cannot be reconciled. Even though Lin'an City in the later Southern Song Dynasty was so prosperous and prosperous, dozens of tile houses and a top-notch traffic, even copied the most popular restaurant Fanlou in Bianliang City. A Fengle Building was built by the West Lake. They were still not Tokyo City, nor the city in Meng Yuanlao’s heart.
