Dressed as an actor in the Qing Dynasty

"Yangzhou is also a scenic spot. Every time you go to the west of the city, there are often countless gauze lamps above the brothels. In the nine miles and thirty steps street, there are pearls and emeralds filling your throat, as if in a fairyland."

There is also a poem that says: Thousands of lights in the night market illuminate the green clouds, and there are many people with red sleeves in high-rise buildings.It's not like the usual days now, but I still know the music and songs.

Or say: Dreaming of Yangzhou once in ten years, won the honor of being a brothel.

Throughout the ages, how many literati and inkmen have been intoxicated in this gentle town, fell in love with the brothel, indulged wantonly, enjoyed the entertainment of the world, the joy of men and women.

It can be seen that the wine and sex in Yangzhou city is not a lie.This Yangzhou city has been a place of sensuality and wine since ancient times. Half a mile past Duchaoguan, there are hundreds of alleys.

During the exchange, there are many brothels and countless powders and dairies. The further you go in, the stronger the smell of rouge and powder.

Su Qingchi walked through the sleeves of the scented powder, and couldn't help lowering his head to contemplate. Shang Chengde is not that kind of romantic person, nor is he a lecherous wanderer, but now he has asked him to meet in a brothel. Although Su Qingchi was puzzled, he didn't hesitate As a delay, he went straight to the Diecui Tower.

The servant of the Diecui Building lured Su Qingchi to the private room upstairs, and from a distance, he could hear the soft singing of the innermost room, and Wu Nong's soft-spoken jokes, it was quite lively.The servant knocked lightly on the door twice, then pushed the door open and let Su Qingchi in.

The smell of alcohol and fat powder rushed towards Su Qingchi, almost causing Su Qingchi to take a step back. Inside the room, a slim young man was blindfolded with silk, and was playing with several lightly dressed women. In the center of the room was a carved round table, with mixed dishes and wine. There were two men on the table, one was lying crookedly on the table, it seemed that he was very drunk, the other was sitting upright, except for his blushing cheeks, there was no mess in the slightest, and he looked very sober.

Su Qingchi swept around, the young man took off the silk, revealing a handsome face, Su Qingchi recognized him as Cheng Yanqiu's younger brother Cheng Yanqing, at this time the young man had already collapsed in the pile of makeup, laughing and talking with him They grab wine and eat.

Seeing Su Qingchi coming, the person sitting upright smiled at him, "Are you here?"

Afterwards, he waved his hands to make the women who were drinking with him retreat, and recruited the young servants to settle down the Cheng brothers. That Cheng Yanqing's childish character, he made a lot of mischief, but he was coaxed down.

When everyone dispersed, only Su Qingchi and Shang Chengde were left in the room. Su Qingchi sighed secretly, and was about to say something, but the next moment, Shang Chengde leaned over and whispered in his ear, "I'm so drunk Great, let me rely on you for a while."

Shang Chengde has always had a good capacity for alcohol, and he never gets drunk easily, but now he is showing such a state of drunkenness.

He was already drunk, and this was not a place to stay for a long time, Su Qingchi half-supported, half-supported, helped Shang Chengde down the stairs, and got a sedan chair.

The sedan chair swayed slowly, Shang Chengde leaned against Su Qingchi, his warm breath brushed against Su Qingchi's neck, with a faint smell of alcohol.

Although Shang Chengde's expression was the same, his face gradually turned red, probably due to the strength of alcohol, and he spoke slowly and paused, "If you... don't come, I'm afraid I'll have to stay there today, I know you don't like makeup smell, but now you have this body, you..."

He frowned uncomfortably, and continued, "You must be angry."

Su Qingchi patted his back, but didn't speak.

Shang Chengde's eyes were already blurred, he just grabbed Su Qingchi's hand and babbled nonsense. Su Qingchi picked out a few words to listen to, and he understood the reason behind the incident. She put him on top of her and let him sleep with her arms in her arms.

When Su Qingchi settled down in Yangzhou, he also heard about the brothers of the Cheng family. Cheng Yanqiu, the eldest son of Cheng, was quite accomplished in poetry, calligraphy and painting. In the room, there was a lot of dancing and writing, and the exclusive party was at ease. For this reason, Master Cheng was quite troubled.

Cheng Yanqing, the second son of the Cheng family, was born with a beautiful personality and a pleasing temperament. At first, he was the most loved by Mr. Cheng, and the Cheng family regarded it as a treasure. However, when Cheng Yanqing was 12 years old, it suddenly came out that the second son of the Cheng family had lost his mind. I don’t know if it’s true. False, but Master Cheng no longer gets close to this son.

There were also rumors that Master Cheng's blood was not flowing on Cheng Yanqing's body. There were all kinds of rumors, and it was impossible to tell the truth from the false.

Instructing Lu Qing to bring a pot of water, Su Qingchi helped Shang Chengde into the room.

The man was already asleep, but his clothes were clutched in his hands, Su Qingchi coaxed several times, but the man was playing a rogue, hugged his waist, and the two of them fell on the bed.

Lu Qing was taken aback when he came in, put down the kettle and closed the door for the two of them.

"What are you going out for, why don't you help your young master up quickly." Su Qingchi was anxious and angry.

"Ah?" Lu Qing was stunned for a moment, seeing Su Qingchi's reproachful eyes, immediately stepped forward, and together with Su Qingchi, helped Shang Chengde up.

After several tosses and struggles, the two finally let the drunk man on the bed sleep peacefully.

At this point, it was already night outside, and Su Qingchi felt his body was sticky, so he wanted to go back to his room to take a bath and rest.

"Boss Su, let me fetch some hot water for you."

"Alright."

The room was full of water vapor, like smoke and mist, Su Qingchi leaned back in the wooden barrel and took a bath for a while.

It's freezing and snowy outside, but there is no coolness inside the house. Su Qingchi is afraid of the cold. Shang Chengde set up two heaters in his room earlier, and the fires are strong every day, so he doesn't feel a little bit of coolness. Now the room is full of heat , making Su Qingchi a little hot.

Hastily washed, took out clean clothes and put them on, when someone knocked on the door outside.

Su Qingchi thought it was Lu Qing, so he put on his coat and went to open the door. Who would have thought that once the door opened, a person would press down on him.

After calming down, Su Qingchi saw someone coming, and couldn't help saying, "Why are you awake? Come in first."

Shang Chengde pressed on Su Qingchi, calling his name indiscriminately, his appearance was not sober, it was still in a drunk dream.

I wanted to call Lu Qing to take care of him, but then I thought about it, at this hour, Lu Qing might have gone to bed early, that's right, if Lu Qing was still awake, how could he let his young master come to his door alone to mess around.

The drunken Shang Chengde is no different from a baby, although he is honest, he is also a rascal.

"Qingchi...Qingchi..."

Su Qingchi had no choice but to pull off the quilt and cover him up, "Go to sleep, have you tossed enough now?"

Shang Chengde still murmured, following the warm fragrance, he rested his head on Su Qingchi's lap, which seemed to be comfortable, and rubbed his nose twice from time to time, which made Su Qingchi angry and funny, so he had to Let him hold her and sit on the bedside all night.

The night was quiet, and the moonlight poured down like water.

Su Qingchi sat on the head of the bed, stroking Shang Chengde's hair time after time, and looked down at the man sleeping peacefully on his lap, a satisfied smile overflowed from Su Qingchi's mouth.

Su Baoer asked him before why he treated Shang Chengde alone differently.

He didn't answer at the time, not because he didn't know clearly, but because he said it, others couldn't understand it.

Su Qingchi did not deny that at the beginning, he did have the idea of ​​seducing Shang Chengde, not for anything else, just to let himself stay in that person's eyes for a while longer.

Su Qingchi never believed in fate, but when a Shang Chengde appeared in his life, he couldn't help wondering if he was a kind of compensation from the heavens, or a chance for him to redeem his sins.

What was compensated for, and what sin was atoned for, no one ever knew, even he himself couldn't tell.

However, he believed that for this ray of his soul to come here, there must be someone in the dark pulling him, is it him?

Su Qingchi lowered his head and caressed his handsome face, or was it him?

Or, are they simply the same person in different time and space?

Chaos, chaos.

Maybe, he just wants to find a piece of his own in this troubled world in this life.

Just because of one obsession, even if he gave up everything, don't make him regret it.
