Chapter 15: The Front Door Feelings

Sometimes being famous isn't a good thing.

As an opponent of literary knowledge, Gu Hongming, a conservative scholar, is still very pleased that Zhang Hanqing, an anonymous disciple, has successfully suppressed a member of the future New Culture Movement. After all, it is not worth boasting about the victory of the veteran, not to mention that he has always personally spoken out against the propaganda of the new culture, but he has not achieved a clear victory. Now, only a newly debuted Zhang Hanqing has reached the realm that he has wanted to do for many years but has not reached, which is a victory in the ancient Chinese cultural circle and a clear stream in the intellectual world!

Under his advocacy, Zhang Hanqing was naturally counted as worshipping under his door.

Perhaps for others, it is the honor of many people's lives to be so praised by everyone like Gu Hongming, after all, this is a figure respected at home and abroad. Maybe he is indeed conservative and lonely, but he is also famous, so famous that Westerners have a saying: "When you go to China, you can not look at the three major halls, you must not look at Gu Hongming." His praise can make Zhang Hanqing deserve to eat in the cultural circle of the capital.

But for Zhang Hanqing, he doesn't want to be branded by someone the most, especially in this special period. The reason why he advocated Gu Hongming was because he spoke his heart: to treat the cultural transmission from the East and the West rationally, to oppose the trend of Western studies that was completely Westernized, and to oppose the overcorrection of traditional culture. Since the time of crossing, the ambition is to rebuild a strong China, so cultural self-confidence is the first step and the step to lay the foundation.

And Gu Hongming is a celebrity, in the early days of the Republic of China, when his reputation was a life-saving talisman, he was arrogant and arrogant, that was his true color or the style of a literati, so it didn't matter if he later scolded Yuan Shikai for being the emperor; Zhang Hanqing is just a rising seedling, and there is a risk of being trampled at the slightest disturbance, and he is still the kind that will never turn over.

Thinking of the previously agreed role that the Zhang father and son would play when Lao Yuan became emperor in the near future, Zhang Hanqing had every reason to believe that the old master Gu would ruthlessly expel him from the sect of the teacher, if he had to worship the mountain gate. Instead of being embarrassed at that time, it is better to show your own character.

Therefore, he braked on the rapids, and even sympathized with Qian Xuan after that: he believed that the way out of Chinese culture, the way out of China, was to actively absorb the advanced culture and science and technology of the West and use it for my own use; For traditional Chinese culture, it is necessary to inherit it critically. All in all, his attitude towards the direction of Chinese culture is that it can neither be completely Westernized, nor can it blindly promote the old culture. Like a bat swaying between beasts and birds, he creates an obstacle to identifying with both the old and the new.

He is just trying to follow his own path, which has proven to be successful, that is, "independence, reform and opening up", and the same is true for culture. However, although this kind of thinking of trying to "meet the source left and right" hurt Gu Hongming very much, it was like a clear stream, making Zhang Hanqing a topic of conversation in academic circles.

At the beginning, Comrade Xiao Zhang was still very self-sufficient that he could skyrocket in popularity in a short period of time: if in the future life, my brother will also be an Internet celebrity. Of course, compared with Internet celebrities, Xiao Zhang's ability to make a name for himself in Peking University, which is a leader in the academic world, is even more unusual.

However, people are afraid of being famous, pigs are afraid of being strong, and soon, trouble comes.

Of course, in view of the fact that Comrade Xiao Zhang is only a junior, they only sent someone who is also a junior, but who is already regarded as his senior brother in academics: "Senior Brother Han Qing, now there is a frequent upsurge of supporting the imperial system outside and urging China to welcome a new life, and I heard that your father, General Zhang, is also strongly supporting. But at present, there is no sound on the campus of Peking University, you are the president of Peking University who personally made the decision, do you have the will to drive the students to raise their arms and do their part? ”

"Raise your arms and call out a ghost", Zhang Hanqing slandered in his heart, "Brother will definitely not do something that has been stinking for 10,000 years, this is something that will be greatly hacked in history." "It seems that my brother has been living too smoothly these days, and he actually forgot that he came to Peking University for refuge instead of seeking a high profile. Is it because my brother is so good that he can shine everywhere?

His proton status, Zhang Zuolin's high profile, and some "help" from Yuan Shikai made him unable to refuse. But what if he was just a high-profile young master with a lot of words? After all, no one can refuse a stubborn and unruly teenager's yearning for a glamorous life, right?

"Senior, political matters are what adults should care about, I just want to study at Peking University, and by the way, enjoy the scenery of the Bada Hutong. To be honest, if my father hadn't forced me to take classes at Peking University, my little brother would have sneaked out for a walk. I've been in Beijing for more than half a month, and I haven't even been to Badaling, so how can I have time to do those boring things! ”

At this moment, he finally understood why so many figures in history had to defile themselves at very many times in order to finally clear their names. Far from it, the story of Cai Yi and Xiao Fengxian that should happen in the near future of this dynasty is an example. In extraordinary times, there are extraordinary people who do extraordinary things. This time, my brother wants to defile himself, is my brother really in response to the mandate of heaven and destined to be an extraordinary person?

Cut, the visitor shook his head depressedly. The boy outside the gate has never seen the world, and rotten wood cannot be carved.

But Zhang Hanqing became alarmed. Without it, there is the first day of junior high school, and it is inevitable that there will be fifteen. It seems that he is indeed too popular in Peking University, I remember that when he came out of Fengtian, Zhang Zuolin held his hand and told him to keep a low profile. In the end, Jiang is still old and spicy, and his own Wang Ba is just like that, this forgetful problem can be changed!

Now that the words have gone out, in order to prevent accidents, it is better to do what you say. It just so happens that I still don't have much knowledge of party culture in my past life and future life, so it's right to go out and "study" now. After substituting this body, he actually had a desperate desire to understand China's millennial pathological culture---- brothels and their "operation", and as for resistance, it was something that had never been done before.

As a result, the figure of Comrade Xiao Zhang began to wander around the front door, and the famous Bada Hutong has had his legend since then.

The business of Bada Hutong was originally not open legs, but open mouths---- after the Hui class entered Beijing, a group of singers gathered here. The Manchu government was very strange, and the sex life of civil servants was also regulated---- prostitution was strictly prohibited. Therefore, the officials began to engage in male style in another way, and this trend swept through Beijing, and the government did not care too much, because the name of Aixin Jueluo Zaichun was called "Tongzhi (Zhi)".

At the end of the Qing Dynasty, the situation had changed, especially after the Eight-Nation Coalition Army entered Beijing, the government was already exhausted, how could there be that leisure to restrict this and that? So a group of prostitutes occupy the magpie's nest and enter the vicinity of the most crowded Qianmen station---- which is in the "big fence". So the duck pen was changed to a chicken nest, and even the fence did not need to be changed, which saved trouble.

Women's creativity is amazing. From the end of the Qing Dynasty to the eighth year of the Republic of China---- Sidney Gamble said in the "Survey of Prostitutes in Beijing": In 1918, the number of registered prostitutes in Beijing was 3,880, not counting private prostitution. If it is estimated that the number of private prostitutes is generally twice that of public prostitutes, then the number of people is about 10,000. At that time, Beijing's population was about 800,000, and if you remove men and children, you can get a statistic: on average, there is one prostitute for every 20 women! Judging from this frightening data, Beijing's GDP should be translated as "chicken's fight".

Although Zhang Hanqing in his previous life was "less" involved in entertainment venues, he had also traveled in the reformed south on business and experienced that kind of atmosphere. Speaking from the heart, the entertainment level in the north has always been weaker than that in the south, like Qin Huai Bayan and Su Yang beauties, both in history and in legends, they are very beautiful and fragrant. In later generations, Lingnan, which was one step ahead, brought together beauties from all over the country, and those happy women, although Zhang Hanqing once disdained them, he would not say that people were ugly with a clear conscience.

However, at this time, the eight alleys made Zhang Hanqing feel disappointed, without it, the front door at this time gathered mostly poor people begging for a living, they may sometimes have occasional physical needs, but according to the principle of equivalent exchange, its quality can be imagined. You get what you pay for, and it is a wise saying in economics, and "chicken fighting" is also an economic method in a broad sense.

Therefore, when Zhang Hanqing was full of hope and wanted to experience the culture of Bada Hutong but returned disappointed, it was inevitable that there was a kind of resentment. Of course, he is a cultural person, so he naturally wants to use cultural means, a song "Feeling at the Front Door" (one says "Feeling after prostitution", this statement Zhang Hanqing later strongly opposed, because he claimed that he absolutely did not lose his body at this time. According to his usual style of speaking and daring, let's just think that it was just an emotional outpouring) was born at this moment of indignation:

"A mule cart passed by in front of the door,

Ash.

How can there be 'stepping on flowers and returning to horseshoe incense'?

Cotton jacket cotton skirt cotton pants,

Swollen shoulders.

How can there be a 'beautiful woman trying thin clothes at night'?

Raw onions, raw garlic, raw leeks,

Pickled dirty.

How can there be a 'whispering in the middle of the night'? ”

Because this poem is not a poem, a word is not a word, and a combination of literary vernacular, it has spread from Qianmen to the entire city of Beijing in a very fast time, and everyone in the circle knows that it came from the hands of a young "prostitute" outside the Guanwai. Originally, there were still some disciples in the capital who wanted to be aggrieved and upset for the women in the northern wind and dust, but I heard that the author was the eldest son of Zhang Zuolin, the general of Fengtian, and it was natural to think of his identity and be well-informed. However, some colleagues who have lived in the gentle township for a long time feel that the words are not rough, because after their practice, they think that these words are the first to drink, and the status quo of the eight major alleys that urgently need to bury their heads in the industry benchmark is exhausted, and it has the effect of shaking the ears and ears.

It is said that Zhang Hanqing's improvisational work was also on Yuan Shikai's desk, and he disagreed, laughing and reprimanding, "It's nonsense." There must be a disciple, but Licheng debauchery and people think it is a beautiful talk, but Zhang Zuolin's son is a tiger and not an anti-dog. ”

Licheng is Gu Hongming, he is a supporter of traditional Chinese culture, and it is natural to take concubines and prostitutes: he has married concubines abroad, and there is a Japanese concubine Yoshida Sada, who is more morbid and thinks that a woman's three-inch golden lotus has a kind of ecstatic beauty...

Yuan Shikai said these words in front of his eldest son Yuan Kewen, with the intention of teaching him a lesson through the evaluation of Zhang Hanqing, but he didn't want to be cited as a fellow believer. Zhang and Yuan are both the eldest sons of important ministers of the country, and later they can be listed as one of the "Four Beautiful Men of the Republic of China".
