The news of the great victory of the Tang army from the far Western Regions made the people of Chang'an City carnival for three days.

Wang Xiao had already ordered the complete lifting of the curfew system. During these three days, the entire Chang'an City was full of traffic and the lights were bright like daytime.

Over the years, with the continuous prosperity of the Tang Dynasty's national strength, it basically won more than lose less when fighting against foreign countries.

There are all kinds of good news from all over the land and ocean, and one comes almost every few days.

To be honest, although Gao Xianzhi's victory this time was very fruitful, the people in Chang'an City were basically almost aesthetically exhausted.

It’s just that everyone was so happy that they even cheered and played for three days and three nights, because Wang Xiao knew what everyone was thinking very much.

So he opened a warehouse to pay prizes to the people in the city in the name of celebrating the great victory of the Tang army.

From grain to copper coins, from fine wine to meat.

As long as you come, you can get one.

Moreover, the singing, dancing, and even those Hu people who can sing and dancing in the entire Chang'an City were bought for free performances throughout the city.

Even Wang Xiao sent out those who only performed for the royal performances in the Pear Garden.

In this era when entertainment is extremely scarce and when it gets dark, you can only rely on exercise to spend your time. It is really rare to be able to take things in vain and see various singing and dancing performances.

So not only the people in Chang'an City, but even the villagers who received news near the city flocked.

With more people, it is naturally a very lively carnival.

For Wang Xiao, this is just a command.

But for those bad people who are responsible for reprimanding public order, they are truly suffering.

The reason for the curfew before Daseng was actually very simple, that is, the road was slippery and complicated. The darkness covered up the traces of people well and would lead to a large number of crimes.

Coupled with military considerations, it is better to just go out and not go out to cover the curfew.

Now Wang Xiao takes the initiative to engage in a carnival and is not allowed to close the city gate at night.

No one dared not to listen to the emperor's words, so it was only Chang'an County and Wannian County that had broken their legs.

There is no way. If any major event occurs on such a happy day, then the first one who is unlucky will be them.

After three days of carnival, Chang'an City was full of chaos.

This was the time when the Tang Dynasty was at its most prosperous. After more than a hundred years of rest and recuperation, the population decline caused by the chaos in the world at the end of the Sui Dynasty had already recovered.

Chang'an City is the most important and prosperous place in the world. Anyone with the opportunity and ability wants to run here.

At this time, the registered population of Jingzhao Prefecture alone was as high as 900,000.

In addition, there are royal families, eunuchs, palace maids, imperial guards, envoys, merchants, bad guys, or just migrant workers, at least one million.

Han Yu's words "A million families in Chang'an, nowhere to go out" are the best descriptions.

Moreover, Wang Xiao ordered that the city gate not be closed in the past three days, and a large number of people outside the city flooded into the city. At its peak, it was estimated that two million people would be squeezed into the entire city.

So many people made it together for three days and three nights, leaving a lot of garbage.

Chang'an and Wannian counties complained, because the area of ​​Chang'an City is as high as 84 square kilometers. It is beyond their ability to clean up the countless garbage scattered in such a large area before it becomes odorous and deteriorated.

This matter has also become a topic of chatting in the secretary's supervisor, and Du Fu expressed his obscure opposition to this.

I think carnival is OK, but if it goes too far, it can only play a negative role.

Naturally, his words were heard by Wang Xiao who was passing by.

"Du Zimei." Wang Xiao greeted Du Fu, "How about we make a bet?"

Du Fu naturally refused, "I dare not."

"It's not possible if you dare not, you must make a bet."

Du Fu had no choice but to respond, "Dare you dare to ask Your Majesty, what's the matter?"

"Of course it's what you said about cleaning up the garbage in Chang'an City." Wang Xiao waved his hand and said, "Believe it or not, I can clean Chang'an City again in one day."

Du Fu looked at Wang Xiao sincerely, "I believe it."

"No, you don't believe it."

Wang Xiao would not believe Du Fu's words. This guy is an angry young man.

"Let's do this." Wang Xiao thought for a while and said, "If I can make Chang'an City clean within one day, then you can go to the Anxi Protectorate Mansion and convey the imperial edict to let Gao Xianzhi and others return to Chang'an City and be sealed."

The Anxi Protectorate is thousands and tens of thousands of miles away from the Tang Dynasty. In this era, there were no planes or high-speed rails. You either rode a horse or camels when you travel far away. Of course, there were also those who traveled on the eleventh route like Tang Xuanzang.

After walking so far in the bad weather and the risk of encountering thieves, the young people in the secretary's prison changed color a little.

However, Du Fu looked happy, "I am willing to go."

In other people's eyes, it is a difficult and dangerous thing, but when Du Fu comes, it becomes a pleasant journey to travel through the beautiful scenery of the Tang Dynasty.

And he went to send good news to Gao Xianzhi and others. For Du Fu, who respected the hero, this was not a punishment at all, but Wang Xiao's care for him.

At this time, Du Fu really wanted to shout loudly, "Let's stop betting, just think I lost!"

Gu/span>Wang Xiao was also a little surprised, but he didn't expect Du Fu to react like this.

"If I can't do it within one day"

"Your Majesty can definitely do it." Du Fu looked upright and greeted his colleagues with his eyes. "Tell me, right?"

Everyone who was watching the fun immediately cursed in their hearts, "What are you going to get us in?"

Although he scolded in his heart, he still nodded in great sincerity, "Your Majesty can do everything, we all believe it."

Wang Xiao pinched his waist with both hands and sighed, "It's so boring, I can't find anyone even if I bet."

He said that it could easily solve the garbage problem, so he didn't want to use spells to clean it up, otherwise it would be boring.

The method Wang Xiao used was very simple, which was to call on people in his own name to take the initiative to clean up garbage for the living environment of each family.

After Gao Lishi mobilized a large number of people to convey the news to various markets, the people of Chang'an City responded one after another.

The people of the Tang Dynasty were still very simple, and they were grateful for the prosperous life brought by Wang Xiao, so they all started to clean up all the garbage near their homes.

Chang'an County and Wannian County organized a large number of board trucks to transport all the garbage cleaned out of various markets out of the city.

Although Chang'an City is big, it is enough for so many people to do it together.

"Have you sent all the things?" Gao Lishi, with a majestic expression, stared at the little yellow gates in front of him. "If you dare to fill your pockets, don't blame me for being rude."

Not all eunuchs can call themselves eunuchs.

Only those who have truly reached a certain position and have the corresponding grade can be called eunuchs.

As for those at the lower level, they are either mates or small yellow gates.

The little yellow party members who took people out to do business all expressed their innocence, "Even if we eat the courage of the bear heart and the leopard, we will not dare to do such things."

That's right, it's what you think.

If you rely solely on your own consciousness, it would be great if there is one out of ten residents who can clean up in Chang'an City.

After all, everyone has to be busy with their own affairs and is busy supporting their families.

So Gao Lishi specially selected Wang Xiao to take a break and asked, "Can you give those people who perform well a certain reward?"

Wang Xiao, who was sleeping, closed his eyes and did not speak.

After serving Wang Xiao for so many years, Gao Lishi has been thinking about this emperor who has never looked old every day, and has long figured out Wang Xiao's temper clearly.

So he quickly retreated and arranged many small yellow gates to go to various markets to give certain rewards to the people who took the initiative to remove garbage.

This matter was his own decision by Gao Lishi and had nothing to do with the emperor.

The emperor was sleeping and knew nothing.

A small number of people who were cleaning their doorsteps got a reward for no reason, and naturally they were filled with joy.

When the neighbors on both sides saw this scene, they immediately took action quickly.

After the news spread to ten or hundreds of people, all of them, except those who were so busy that they couldn't get rid of themselves, they all started to clean up.

Of course, there is a rumor that "what can't be cleaned today will be charged a special sanitation fee." Gao Lishi said, "I don't know anything."

With one hand, the other hand, the people in Chang'an City can naturally become "simple".

The rumors that Chang'an City became clean overnight have become the topic of conversation after dinner in recent times.

At the same time, many people from the secretary-in-chief, including Du Fu and Meng Haoran, took Wang Xiao's imperial edict to all parts of the world.

Wang Xiao took the initiative to gather all the generals from all over the country, and was preparing to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival together in Chang'an City, but in fact he was forcing An Lushan to take action.

All arrangements and arrangements have been made in place, so Wang Xiao naturally did not want to continue waiting, so he took the initiative to create opportunities for An Lushan.

Moreover, all the famous generals of the Tang Dynasty gathered together. When An Lushan rose up, Wang Xiao personally brought so many famous generals and generals to attack An Lushan. It felt very happy to think about it.

Du Fu has the longest journey, so he set out first.

Under the escort of a team of Shenwu cavalry, he galloped along the post station to the distant Anxi.

Wang Xiao was not idle here either. After experiencing the previous cleaning, he felt that this Chang'an City, which originated from Daxing City of the Sui Dynasty, needed to be renovated.

The repair he was thinking about was not about repairing the city wall.

Although the walls of Chang'an City are tall and strong, in fact, in Wang Xiao's opinion, even the strongest walls are useless when they are beaten to Chang'an City.

The history book says that when the Tubo people besieged Chang'an City, they used young girls everywhere in the city, and then tied them with ropes to the military camp of the Tubo people outside the city.

It’s a pity that this could not satisfy the appetite of the Tubo people, so it was still broken later.

Wang Xiao has always advocated defending enemies outside the national gates, and he never valued city walls and other things.

The repair he was thinking about was to completely rectify the livelihood facilities of Chang'an City.
