Chapter 80: Self-Defilement
Zhang Hanqing's self-defilement, to the ears of Cai Yi, who is upright, seems to be a kind of sarcasm. Although it is only an expedient measure, throughout the ages, I don't know how many heroes have used it to protect themselves or overcome difficulties. However, considering the "nephew" who has just turned 15 years old in front of him, it is a bit of an instigation of minors. Rao is a hero like Cai Yi, and he can't be calm about it.
Because of his self-defilement, he chose the Eight Hutongs of Jingshi. If you don't believe it, when you mention the "Eight Hutongs", what do you automatically make up for in your brain?
It is no accident that there are many hutongs in Beijing, and it is no accident that the eight hutongs alone are famous at home and abroad. By the end of the Qing Dynasty and the beginning of the Republic of China, it was already synonymous with fireworks and willow lane, a place of deformed prosperity. There is a way that "the eight alleys have been known since ancient times, and Shaanxi Baishun Stone Town." Hanjiatan is full of string songs, and Wang Guangxie Street is brightly lit. The front of the Ten Thousand Buddhas Temple is full of cars, and the two camps are vertical and horizontal. How much do you know about the mink Qiu high rollers, and the clusters of rouge slopes go up. ”
In fact, the "Eight Hutongs" mentioned by the old Beijingers do not specifically refer to these eight streets and alleys, but to the area around Dashilar outside the front door, because there are nearly 100 large and small brothels in the alleys outside these eight streets and alleys. It's just that back then, most of the brothels in these eight alleys were first-class and second-class, and the "grade" of prostitutes was also relatively high, which is why they were so well-known.
If Zhang Zuolin knew that his eldest son's reputation was ruined by himself, how could he be embarrassed to meet the "world brother" again, although the two may never see each other again in this life, and the same is true in history.
"The mountains and waters are clear and the night is frosty, and the trees are dark red and light yellow." In late autumn, it is the season of old Beijing with ginkgo biloba yellow and maple leaves. Since the end of October, the ginkgo trees in the streets and alleys have been lit up like lamps.
Since ancient times, the literati have been sad. Isn't this autumn the sorrow in the eyes of the literati? However, compared to the sorrow of being disease-free, Cai Ye is really worried. As Yuan Shikai's good days are approaching, the "Jingshi Law Enforcement Office" has also tightened monitoring of his whereabouts, causing him to spend more and more time in Bada Hutong.
Because he has been getting close to Cai Ye recently, under Gao Jiyi's observation and teaching, he even found that there were more unusual strangers around him. Maybe, his recent performance was stabbed to Lao Yuan by someone with a heart, right? Therefore, the gang of people from the Jingshi Law Enforcement Department also increased their surveillance of themselves at the same time.
Compared with Uncle Cai Shi's sorrow, Zhang Hanqing is a little more chic. He got Cai Yi's "point", and "sure enough", he had less time to study and more ups and downs. Since self-defilement is a kind of play, let's just let it go. However, due to the lackluster "nightlife" utensils in this era, with the fear of Hualiu disease, he is basically amorous but not obscene in the Huanyue field, and he can't keep his King Kong indestructible.
Originally, he was acting, but who knew that he was too deep in the play, and he really regarded himself as a prostitute. Although he came through time, he occupied the body of the original owner after all. This contrived made the potential of the merry young marshal be stimulated. Within a month, all kinds of chicks in Bada Hutong knew that Xiao Zhang Liugongzi, a high-roller from Liaodong, was "stupid, rich, and quick to come".
There is no way, Zhang Hanqing, who wants to use General Cai's fame and connections to do something in Beijing, in order to achieve his goal, he can only enter Cai Yi's circle first and win his trust.
But in the same way, Cai Ye also wants to break into another circle and indirectly win the trust of another person.
This circle is Yang Du's "Preparatory Security Meeting".
As the person in charge of the "Preparatory Security Association", the promoter of the imperial system, and the future prime minister of the Yuan court, Yang Du's political ability will not talk about him first, but history evaluates him as a suave, uninhibited, affectionate, and intoxicated man of dogs and horses, but it is true.
Since it is a "celebrity and celebrity", it is natural to have a "celebrity demeanor". Although it can't do the degree of Wei and Jin to scatter and catch lice, it is impossible to run away every night by calling friends to go to the Bada Hutong to sing songs and chase colors. Cai Ye decided to break into their circle, and he was not exempt from vulgarity. Those people have their own good girls, Cai Ye can't always take Zhang Hanqing there, right? Although 15-year-old Zhang Hanqing has red lips and white teeth, he has long had the potential to have a little white face. The Republic of China has the legacy of the late Qing Dynasty, and prostitutes can still be praised by literati as romantic, but the good male style has long made people's teeth cold. Cai Ye is self-defiled, not self-isolated.
Yang Du took advantage of the fact that he and Cai Yi were both fellow villagers in Hunan, and went to Cotton Hutong every day to urge Cai Ye to be listed as one of the initiators of the imperial system. Because at this time, the "Preparatory Security Meeting" is a group of flattering masters who catch knives, and there are few really influential chats. Only if you can put Cai Yi, who has outstanding influence among the national military generals, into a name, will it be convincing.
And Cai Ye needs to express his consent, otherwise, he will not only remain under house arrest, but also worry about his life; But with his personality, directly expressing his approval will make the suspicious President Yuan Da suspicious, because his mentor is Liang Qichao.
Liang Qichao, who lived in the Japanese concession of Tianjin, was a typical opponent of the emperor, and just a few months ago he wrote a very showy article "The so-called national system problem" to denounce Yuan as the emperor. Yuan Shikai got the news and sent someone to send Liang Qichao a silver ticket of 200,000 yuan to celebrate Liang Qichao's father's birthday, in exchange for the fact that the article should not be published, but Liang Qichao returned the silver ticket. Yuan Shikai sent someone to Liang Qichao again, "Mr. Liang has also been in exile overseas for more than ten years, and he doesn't know the hardships, so why bother to suffer again?" Liang Qichao replied, "I have enough experience in escaping for my life, and I would rather choose to flee than survive in the dirty air." ”
With such a teacher, how can the students be bad? And before entering Beijing, he held heavy troops and always showed people with an iron and iron image; After being in Beijing, although his position was promoted and his authority was lost, he was still impressed by the generals of the Beiyang system, including Yuan Shikai. In a word, General Cai has never been a servile person.
Only women are one of the conditions that cause them to have the opportunity to change their faces, "rushing to the crown and being angry for the red face", beauties love heroes, and heroes love beauties!
However, to let General Cai, who is self-conscious, go directly to Bada Hutong, this change is a bit too sudden. So, it just happened, oh no, it just so happened that Zhang Hanqing came to Beijing. is also very immature and lustful---- whoever asks him to open his mouth will go to live in the hall of Peking University!
With President Yuan's casual sentence of "military study to find Senator Chiang", General Cai naturally had the opportunity to ask Xiao Zhang Liugongzi to go to the office, and naturally they went back and forth, and the two became familiar with each other.
As an elder, General Cai took Zhang Hanqing to tour the city of Beijing, and others didn't have anything to say, right? Xiao Zhang Liugongzi is going to go to Bada Hutong for a stroll, and there is nothing harmless to the people of the time, right? Xiao Zhang's sixth son wants to "experience" life, and Uncle Cai is accompanied by nothing, right? In that kind of place, normal people will be infected, right? It's inevitable to walk by the river without getting your shoes wet, right? It's normal for General Cai to get wet when he goes to the countryside and follows the customs, isn't it? After all, this responsibility is all caused by Xiao Zhang Liugongzi, isn't it?
So naturally, the two old friends often hook up one big and one small to "defile themselves".
The purpose of this is to let Yuan Shikai behind Yang Du see that Cai Yi is also a romantic seed.
