Yongyangfang is located in the southwest corner of Chang'an City.Compared with those fangs close to the imperial city and the main road of Chang'an City, Yongyang Fang is the most remote place in Chang'an City.No matter what era, even the most prosperous city, there are always some inconspicuous places.And these inconspicuous places often don't fit in with the bustling façade of the city in which they are located.Yongyangfang can be said to be the shantytown of Chang'an City.In this area, there are no high-ranking families, and there are some poor people living in them.Yongyang Fang is very small, although the name is "Yongyang", but it is under the tall city wall of Chang'an City, and it is a corner position, those low houses in Yongyang Fang, many of them do not see the sun for more than half of the day.This is the darkest and most backward place in Chang'an City.The law and order in the market is also very bad, and the three religions and nine streams are full of them, and incidents such as armed fights, gambling gatherings, and abduction and deception emerge one after another.At the beginning of the Tang Dynasty, because the national strength and people's livelihood had not yet recovered, the imperial court expressly prohibited some extravagant industries.For example, the opening of gambling houses is an industry prohibited by the imperial court.However, there is no shortage of gamblers in ancient and modern China and abroad, and there is no shortage of gamblers in Chang'an City of the Tang Dynasty.The imperial court is not allowed to open gambling houses, which does not mean that the gamblers in Chang'an City have no place to go.In some remote places, there are black gambling houses that operate secretly.Most of these black gambling houses were opened in people's homes.From the outside, it is an ordinary house, and there is nothing special about it at all.But if you look closely, you will find that at the entrance of these houses that are used to open black gambling houses, there are always one or two small people who poke their brains out from time to time.These little guys are not only the greetings of the black gambling house, but also the people who look at the wind.There are several such black gambling houses in Yongyang Fang.The largest one, located in the middle of Yongyang Fang, is a courtyard with five main rooms and two wings.Such a courtyard, in the remote area of Yongyangfang, is also a medium-to-high scale building.November 30 is the day of the imperial court's rest.The officials in the yamen all had a holiday on this day.This is a good day for the illegal black gambling houses.They don't have to worry about a surprise visit from the government.In the largest black gambling house in Yongyang Fang, there are many more customers than in the past.The five main rooms were crowded with people, and shouts came and went.However, the wings on both sides are quieter.The wings on both sides are also gambling rooms, but they are only used to receive big gamblers, which is equivalent to a gambling room.In the east wing, there is a table of gamblers at this time.There are four gamblers at this table, seated on all sides of a low square table.On the low table, there was a stack of paper cards, about two inches long and one inch wide.Four gamblers are taking turns to touch the paper cards, and then hold them in their hands and secretly arrange them according to a certain pattern.These four gamblers play a gambling method called "Flower Club".There are different kinds of flowers and plants drawn on those paper cards, and the number of flowers and plants drawn on the paper cards is also different.In fact, this is the predecessor of Ye Zi Opera, its playing style is relatively similar to mahjong, and it is also through permutations and combinations to complete various wins.There are a total of 60 cards in the flower club, and the four gamblers each draw 14 cards, leaving four at the bottom for the bottom to be used.Because of the small number of cards, compared with the mahjong of later generations, the flower club has a very low technical content and pays more attention to luck.One of the four gamblers, about thirty years old, had slanted eyebrows and a lewd face.This person is none other than Hu Jiang, the brigade commander of the Internal Guard Regiment of the Arsenal Special Administration.Hu Jiang is an old gambler.When he was still in the school field, he often set up his own gambling game and led the soldiers in the school field to gamble.After arriving at the Internal Guard Regiment of the Arsenal Bureau, the military discipline was strict, and Hu Jiang usually had no chance to gamble if he wanted to.Every time Mu Xiu, Hu Jiang would come to this black gambling house in Yongyangfang to participate in gambling.After coming and going, he also became a frequent visitor to this black gambling house.Yesterday, Zhao Yunze returned to the arsenal to inspect the office, which really startled Hu Jiang.Although the imperial court tried its best to conceal the news that Zhao Yunze was taken away by the Turks, it was only ordinary people who might hide it, and the civil and military officials in the arsenal naturally knew the truth about Zhao Yunze's disappearance.Hu Jiang stole the thunderbolt and sold it to Wang Hui, and at first he did not know Wang Hui's true identity.But after Zhao Yunze's accident, Hu Jiang pondered it and understood who he sold the thunderbolt to.Seeing Zhao Yunze's safe return, Hu Jiang was very worried that Zhao Yunze already knew about his stealing of thunderbolts.However, yesterday, Zhao Yunze never mentioned this matter, and his attitude towards Hu Jiang was the same as usual.Hu Jiang also relieved himself.In order to comfort his little heart that was injured yesterday, today, Hu Jiang went to Yongyangfang to gamble.Hu Jiang's luck seems to be good today, not long after the bet was opened, he has already won several games in a row.On the low table in front of him, there were also thick stacks of chips.Because those who can enter the wing room to participate in gambling are all big gamblers, and a chip is a bet of 100 Wen.There were no less than twenty or thirty chips in front of Hu Jiang.That's the profit of two or three times, more than his monthly income.The smile on Hu Jiang's face has not disappeared since the gambling began.That already obscene face looks even more obscene.After about half an hour of playing, one of the gamblers finally ran out of money.If there are no new gamblers to fill in, the game will not be able to play.So the game ended up.Hu Jiang won more and lost less today, and finally counted the results, he actually won more than five yuan, which was enough to withstand Hu Jiang's three months of money.Hu Jiang left the black gambling house humming a little song.Walking in the streets and alleys of Yongxingfang, Hu Jiang felt that everything was pleasing to the eye.Those shabby clothes who usually annoy him now also make Hu Jiang feel good.He also threw ten copper plates into the bowl of a beggar on the street; Those naughty children chasing and playing on the street also made Hu Jiang feel extremely cute.On weekdays, Hu Jiang wouldn't even look at the women in coarse cloth on Yongyangfang Street, but today, he also looked at people's faces, waists and buttocks.Not to mention, these women who don't apply fat powder also look different.Hey, the little lady at the door of that family is good, she actually has tweed on her head, and her face seems to be smeared with powder, which is extremely rare in Yongyangfang.Hey, is that little lady waving at me Hu Jiang looked around and made sure that the twenty-four or five-year-old woman was not greeting others, so he walked towards the woman.When he got closer, Hu Jiang found that the woman's face was not good-looking at all, her face was covered with thick white powder, her two eyebrows were black and thick, and her mouth was painted blood-red, as if she had eaten the flesh of a dead child.This level of makeup, vulgar, quite vulgar.Hu Jiang suddenly lost interest."
Lang Jun, the slave family is at home alone, very lonely, Lang Jun accompanies the slave family."
As soon as the woman spoke, Hu Jiang understood her identity, this was a half-hidden business, that is, a secret prostitute.Hu Jiang's interest that he had just lost was raised again.His eyes surveyed the woman's breasts.Well, it should feel good if it's very drum and round."
Little lady, you let the master accompany you, do you want money" Hu Jiang laughed."
Yo, look at what you said, we don't starve to death without money.Giggles," the woman chuckled, her chest shaking deliberately.Hu Jiang stared at the woman's turbulent waves and swallowed a mouthful of saliva."
Uncle, the slave family only charges you twenty yuan."
As the woman spoke, one hand put on Hu Jiang's shoulder, and her entire chest was attached to Hu Jiang's former arms.A certain part of Hu Jiang's body was about to move.No matter, although this woman's face is not good-looking, but this figure is good, it's a big deal not to look at her face.Hu Jiang grabbed the woman's waist and walked towards the small courtyard
