Chapter 42: Sweeping Pornography

In the past few days, Kaifeng Mansion has been very lively, the prefect is very busy, and the officials are very tired and very lively. The reason for the excitement is that they have to receive dozens of alarms every day, and the whole government has to mobilize together, and it will be busy until late at night to deal with it; The prefect has been locked up with disheveled criminals from the morning before going to work, and all the 'weathering cases' are said to be things that can be handled by his subordinates who join the army and the master, but these criminals are not ordinary, and the prefect has to go into battle in person, and he can't get up when he sits down, and he will not be able to get up when he sits down, and he will solve the lunch and dinner in the boxed lunch; The result of this kind of case is generally punished with cane, and hitting the board is also manual work, hitting dozens of people a day, it will take thousands of strokes, of course, it is very tired, but the beaten people will give them a red envelope in order to suffer less crimes, so although they are tired, they are very happy!

"Brother Li, how is today's harvest?" It's already dusk, and the prefect will slip away after the case is closed, otherwise it will be sleepless tonight, but the officials can't leave, they have to be on duty.

"Hehe, let's send it, it's better than yesterday, today I hit seven, three six, three seven, and a five, I gave this number!" Brother Li looked left and right, hooked his finger and whispered.

"Six hundred!?"

"Be quiet, the other way around!" Brother Li hurriedly covered his mouth and said.

"Nine hundred!" The puppy said with his mouth wide open.

"Well, hurry up and buy something affordable, the top time, or you won't stay up until dawn, it will be dark soon, and it's time to send someone over in a while!" Brother Li yawned, took out Zhang Wuguan's meeting and stuffed it to the little dog.

"Okay, I'll go!" The puppy stood up and said.

"Dog, give us some too!" Seeing him move, several people took out the money from their arms, and threw it to him without counting it.

"Okay..."The dog hurriedly agreed, who let himself just 'enter the door', the errand work is his own, but this time the errand money can be left a lot.

"Team leader, what do you say these days, this is looking for a 'young lady' (this word is said to have been left at that time, specifically referring to... Everyone understands) It's not a big deal, from the time the Shenzong Dynasty was in charge of the king, and now decades have passed, why is that one tossing again? Brother Li gave the head of the squad a stack of words and asked with a shy face.

"Li Er, don't ask, don't ask, we can't control the above things, haven't you seen who is sent in these days, who would take our eyelids in the past, but now you look at who dares to fart, obediently take off their pants and let us spank, if you want to be light, you have to show it, who dares to mess with him!" The head of the squad stuffed the child into his arms and said.

"Yes, yes, the lesson of the team leader is that when you are free, I invite you to sit in Yuhong Pavilion, there..."

"Bastard, you don't want to mess around in the yamen, I haven't stayed enough, don't pull me if you want to die!" Before he finished speaking, the head of the team turned his face, scolded and turned away.

"Phew, now pretend to be a good person, and I'll let you bump into Lord Yan when I go out!" Brother Li spat at the back of the squad leader and muttered.

"Are there any living ones, bring these few in!"

"Yes, it's time to buy and sell again!" Brother Li sighed secretly, "Come, come, hand me over!" He shouted and called a few men, and quickly took the prisoners from the hands of some of the men who were dressed in his own clothes, and quickly took the shackles, and arranged for them to squat at the base of the wall.

"Brother Li, as soon as it got dark, three of them were sent, and I need to prepare some shackles tonight, don't catch the blind when the time comes!" A servant said.

"Well, everyone also takes shifts to rest, and I haven't even slept after a few days of being busy, don't be tired!" Brother Li said thoughtfully.

.......

It is said that prostitution and sleeping with prostitutes are really not a big deal, that is, if they are caught now, they will be detained for a few days, and the Song Dynasty implemented sexual openness, and the red light district was legalized, and there was no need to hang the signs of love song rooms, hair washing rooms, and nightclubs as they do now. Statues are hung on the doors of each fireworks building, and the famous flowers are listed, all showing their own signboards, which is a serious business.

In fact, Tokyo, the capital of the Northern Song Dynasty, was the most prosperous city for prostitution in ancient China, and Lin'an City was even more known as the "Sea of Color" in those years. The supreme ruler of the Great Song Dynasty strongly advocated hedonism. The founding emperor Zhao Kuangyin once openly advocated to the military generals of Wenchen: "Accumulate more money, entertain yourself and buy more singing and dancing girls, and drink and enjoy each other every day to end your days." ”

Emperor Song Renzong, Song Zhenzong and other emperors also repeatedly persuaded hundreds of officials to entertain themselves with their voices. As a result, it became fashionable for bureaucrats and doctors in the Song Dynasty to keep domestic prostitutes, which was almost universal and popular. The people of the time said: "Two governments and two systems, each family has its own singing and dancing, and the official position is a little satisfactory, and it is often increased." In history, Su Shi "had several singing and dancing prostitutes", Ouyang Xiu had "eight or nine concubines", Yang Zhen "had ten concubines", Zhang Yuan "bought twenty concubines", Han Yanxuan had "fourteen concubines", and Li Yun had "hundreds of prostitutes". "Qingbo Magazine" contained: "Scholars want to keep their wealth and nobility, and there are taboos at every turn, especially death." Alone in the sound, there is nothing to avoid. ”…,

As the capital of the Northern Song Dynasty, in Tokyo, brothels are everywhere and everywhere, just like the restaurants necessary for the daily life of citizens, which really responds to the ancient adage of "food and sex". Like the west of Quyuan Street in the "Yuan Street", it is actually a brothel, which can be called "Brothel Street". Especially in the downtown areas, such as the east and west Suzaku Gate of the Royal Street, as well as the south and north diagonal streets of Xiaqiao, are all brothels. These streets are the longest and widest streets in Tokyo, and it's not hard to imagine how many brothels can be set up. As early as the early years of the Northern Song Dynasty, Tao Gu roughly said that there were tens of thousands of household registrations in Tokyo, which proved that this was not an exaggeration, but a conservative count.

Due to the large number of prostitutes, prostitutes are divided into different levels. One is the best prostitute, and the place of residence is tasteful. Its living room is a quiet room, three or four halls, its courtyard has flower rockery, strange stone basin pool, its small room is curtain couch, left and right history... They are all able to write, good at talking, wonderful entertainment, evaluating characters, and answering correctly. In front of the door, there are many servants and horses, and few come to swim; Inside the house, there are endless jinshi, and the extravagant cloth mats... The other type of prostitutes are mostly from the family of secular and miscellaneous dramas. At the banquet of the nobles, there will be such a figure of prostitutes carrying musical instruments. In their spare time, they gather in Tokyo's larger golden lotus shack and perform their own tricks. Such a prostitute uses silk and bamboo orchestras, singing and dancing, dazzling people's ears and eyes, in order to move their hearts. Most of the people who begged for their pleasure were the children of the anointed sorghum, and when they saw it, when they were gone, they visited their homes and indulged in fun... These two types of prostitutes who pay equal attention to sex and art are the mainstream of prostitutes in Tokyo and the entire Song Dynasty, called "official prostitutes".

Because the government has public and private banquets, prostitutes must be ordered to respond, so all registered prostitutes are called "official prostitutes". An important mission of official prostitutes is to embellish entertainment and other major events sponsored by the government, and the government will let the official prostitutes line up for a spectacular view. Another important mission is to be requisitioned by the government for commercial buying and selling. At this time, the official prostitutes still hold flowers and drums, or hold dragons and ruans, which are really dressed and played; Charming and charming, complement each other. The mother-in-law who waited for them also made up as an embroidered prodigal child in the market, and pulled the embroidered saddle Baole horse for them. There are also many children of officials who use people to hold candied fruits of various colors, and personally hold cups to frequently persuade wine. In addition, the official prostitutes were invited to open the way for the court, and then they were guarded by floating idlers with fans and clothes, which attracted thousands of citizens to line up on the streets to watch, forming a scene of "sea of ten thousand" for a while.

This style of spending a lot of money on prostitutes is to show their deep financial resources, incomparable status, and romantic mood. The princes and dignitaries are tired of this and compare with each other, so that the consumption of prostitutes in the city is like a surging wave, rolling straight up, becoming an important reason for the deformity and prosperity of the city in the Song Dynasty and a unique landscape.

"Second master, the second son of Gao Taiwei's family is above, he is a bachelor of the dynasty, can we still catch it?" In a dark alley, Zhao Zhong leaned into the window of a black-painted carriage and asked.

"Catch, why don't you catch it, don't say it's a bachelor, it's better if it's the deacons!" A leisurely answer floated out of the carriage.

"Hehe, second master, I really caught it today, Jinhuan Lane reported over there, Zhang Bangchang, the left Cheng of Zhongshu Province, and Li Bangyan, the right Cheng, are all there!" Zhao Zhong said with a smile.

"Okay, then what are you waiting for, you keep an eye on this side, I'll take someone over there, these dogs can make me wait, thinking that they have dozens of prostitutes at home, and they won't come out to hunt wild food, you must not miss it!" Zhao Ta immediately became excited, and while commanding, he mobilized people to rush to Jinhuan Lane.

"Second master, if we catch them, where will we send them, I'm afraid Kaifeng Mansion won't dare to accept them, right?" In the carriage, Miki said with some embarrassment.

"What are you afraid of, if they don't accept it, we'll send them to the palace!" Zhao Ta said indifferently, as if the few people to be arrested were not second-class officials in the DPRK, just like dogs.

"Hmm!" Seeing that Xi nodded with a bitter face, the prince is sick in idleness! No, it's not sick, it's crazy, I saw Xi helplessly looked at the prince and thought, they squatted in front of Cai Jingmen for a few days, and they didn't find anything wrong with him, the prince entered the palace depressedly, I don't know what medicine Huang Daguan gave him, and when he came back, it was like a chicken blood, and he began to arrest prostitution and prostitution, and set off a 'anti-pornography' storm against civil servants in Beijing...

"Hey, the Great Song Dynasty is so corrupt that even these young people have learned badly!" Outside a green building, Zhao Ta watched a few guards push four or five guys with clothes on their heads into the carriage, and behind them was a group of young people dressed as scholars who followed out in a panic and quickly hid in the surrounding alleys. They are a group of young people in the restless period of youth, but they can't hang out like evil teenagers and make trouble, and they don't have the style of a noble son who wants to fatten up and support him, so they can only study hard all day long, and they are mentally lonely, and once they are in high school, they are worth a hundred times and need to show off to others. The great contrast makes them yearn for the comfort of the opposite sex, and most of these people are either absent from their families, or their marriages are not concluded, and their economic situation is mostly in the 'middle class' of society, and brothels have become their most frequent frequented .......

"Second master, this time I fished it, there is also the 'Golden Lion King' in it, he just went in for a short time, and he was served by us!" Zhao Zhong ran over to report the results.

"Okay, they didn't dare to toss, did they?" Zhao Ta nodded, and then asked.

"No, when we suddenly broke in, we were all frightened, and we lowered our heads, I'm afraid we will recognize it and cover our heads when we go out!" Zhao Zhong said with a smile.

"Okay, look at it, I'll personally send them into the palace tomorrow!" Zhao Ta said, in fact, Zhao Ta is not sick, nor crazy, and he is not quite a model young man, but this matter is related to his entry into the palace.

On that day, Zhao Ta entered the palace to ask for peace, and saw that his mother was not in good spirits, her face was haggard and miserable, and she seemed to have something unspeakable, so she asked a few times, but the mother refused to say, and after he said goodbye, he 'tried' Huang Jingchen, only to know that Lu Dao was because his father did not study well and wanted to find a 'little three'. It turned out that Zhao Ji watched his favorite concubines grow old and often sullen, Gao Yu, Yang Jian and others, saw this clearly, and knew that the reason why the master of the Dao did not eat well and slept well, so he persuaded the emperor to "Ninety-five Supreme, what can not be done!" It is possible to have fun in time, in order to live up to the time, life is like a white horse, if you don't find joy, you will inevitably be sad. "The color of the favor of the king of You, the king of Chu built the platform of Zhanghua, the Han Emperor loved Feiyan, the queen of Chen had the code of the back court of Yushu, the Ming emperor favored Yang Guifei, and the tour of the Yangtze River of the Jin Cable of Emperor Yang of Sui. Singing and dancing in the morning, orchestrating every night, wine and beauty, not in vain in this life. ”

Seeing that the emperor was tempted, several people discussed and introduced the leader of Beijing, Li Shishi, to the emperor, thinking that Li Shishi was young, the plate was beautiful, the temperament was good, and he could take everything he could do with piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and Zhao Ji fell into it. He tasted the fragrance of wild flowers, and since then he can't extricate himself, so he often takes a small sedan chair, takes a few personal attendants, and travels in micro-clothes accompanied by Yang Jian, Gao Yu, and Wang Hao in shifts. also set up a "Xingxing Bureau" to open up a busy and lying circle for micro-banks. The secrets of the palace have always been talked about by people, especially the news that the emperor often goes in and out of brothels and restaurants, and it spreads very quickly, making legends all over the city. The ministers were silent and didn't dare to pretend to be confused, Zheng Hongmei couldn't persuade her, so she could only wash her face with tears.

Zhao Tazheng felt that he was still far from the 'ten thousand suspicions', so he took over the matter and became the director of the amateur rectification office, he did not do it without evidence in accordance with the law, but with the backing of the ancestral family law, and in the Song Dynasty, officials were forbidden to prostitute many times. When Zhao Zhen (Song Renzong) was emperor, he stipulated that the officials in charge of the prison should not call prostitutes. Forty or fifty years later, when Zhao Ji (Song Shenzong) became emperor, it was expanded to include the entire prison department, not only the prison sentence, but all supervision officials were forbidden to prostitution, and later the scope was expanded to stipulate that as long as the official was not allowed to consume sex (except on his birthday). Wang Anshi, who was the prime minister at the time, personally took charge of officials prostituting in order to regulate the behavior of officials. There are laws to follow, there are precedents to follow, and now that Zhao Tan has the acquiescence of the queen, he is even more unscrupulous when he starts his work.
