Chapter four hundred and sixty first shaving hair and easy clothes
I saw that among the many burly men in the barracks, a large number of them had disheveled hair and were helping each other catch lice in their hair. -》
Zhong Jinwei also saw that many people did not crush the lice and throw them away after catching them, but just threw them into their mouths and chewed them, and never saw them spit them out again.
This made Zhong Jinwei, who came from a later generation, couldn't stand it any longer, so he turned around and left.
Seeing that Marquis Zhongxing saw the situation in the barracks, Gu Baichuan was not worried and walked back without saying a word.
He followed a few steps and explained to Zhong Jinwei with a smile: "Master Marquis, you can't blame them. The weather is so hot, and you will easily get lice if you sweat a lot."
Seeing that Zhong Jinwei still looked aggrieved, he added: "Romantic figures in the Han and Jin Dynasties often talked about it, and it became a good story that has been passed down through the ages. These soldiers can be considered to be very romantic!"
Zhong Jinwei couldn't stand listening any more. He stood up and turned to look at Gu Baichuan and said, "Wouldn't it be uncomfortable if you had lice on your head?"
Gu Baichuan was stunned for a moment, and he could tell from Zhongxing Hou's tone that he seemed to hate lice very much.
Gu Baichuan immediately replied to Zhong Jinwei: "Of course it's uncomfortable. My subordinates spend a lot of money on barbers." [
Zhong Jinwei was surprised at this moment. He remembered how the people who had previously been docile and surrendered rebelled when the Qing Dynasty ordered people to shave their heads and change clothes. How could there be barbers in this era? Zhong Jinwei immediately asked this question out of curiosity.
This time, not only Gu Baichuan was alone, but all the guards around him looked at him in surprise.
Zhong Jinwei looked at the expressions on their faces and immediately felt that he had asked a common sense and low-level question about sex.
If people in ancient times didn't have haircuts, their hair would have been very long, but I don't think I've ever seen anyone's hair grow to a perverted level.
Zhong Jinwei felt a little embarrassed when he thought of this, so he turned around and walked back to his official office.
Gu Baichuan followed Zhong Jinwei and answered Zhong Jinwei's question: "Yes, barbers with good skills are very popular and their living conditions are good."
Zhong Jinwei didn't say anything after hearing this. After walking for a while, he suddenly said: "What kind of body, hair and skin..."
When he said this, he forgot the next words and couldn't speak anymore.
When Gu Baichuan heard this, he quickly continued: "Master Hou is saying that the hair and skin of the body are inherited from the parents and do not dare to damage them. This is the beginning of filial piety?"
After hearing this, Zhong Jinwei stopped and turned around, nodding to him and saying, "Yes, that's it. Isn't it a conflict to get a haircut?"
After asking, he continued to move forward.
Gu Baichuan smiled and replied: "Master Hou, there is no conflict. This is about filial piety, and it is also the tradition of our Han people. When you are a child, you obey the orders of your parents and shave your hair like a barbarian. As an adult, you must grow it.
It is filial piety to wear your hair in order to carry your clothes and crown."
When he said this, he saw that Zhongxing Hou wanted to refute, so he quickly explained: "There is a situation that we Han people cannot accept, which is shaving our beards and wearing Hu clothes. This kind of forcing Han people to abandon their ancestors' clothes and hair accessories
This incident aroused strong resistance from the Han people."
Zhong Jinwei was startled when he heard this. The Manchu shaving and changing clothes had not happened yet. How did Gu Baichuan know about it? Could it be that he was also a time traveler?
Before he could show his inner surprise, Gu Baichuan had already explained with an example: "After the Jin Dynasty destroyed the Northern Song Dynasty, Jin Taizong issued an order to the Han people in the country to wear Hufu and shave their hair in the seventh year of Tianhui, and they refused to die. Qingzhou Observation captured by the Jin Dynasty
The envoy Li Miao, Baoyi Lang Li Zhou, Youwu doctor Guo Yuanmai and others would rather die than surrender."[
Zhong Jinwei never thought that shaving one's hair and changing clothes was not a Manchu patent, but it had been around so long.
Listening to Gu Baichuan's words, he suddenly thought of another question and asked puzzledly: "A few days ago, I distributed new military uniforms to new sergeants, and it seems that they didn't object?"
Gu Baichuan smiled and replied to Zhong Jinwei: "Master Marquis, your new military uniform is something we have never seen before, and it doesn't seem to be a barbarian uniform. Besides, you issued a new military uniform, but you did not stipulate that the new military uniforms should be used by soldiers."
From now on, you can only wear this new military uniform. You can also change back to the original Hanfu during normal times. In other words, your new military uniform can be regarded as a new type of Hanfu."
Zhong Jinwei vaguely felt that the key to whether these Han people in ancient times strongly resisted shaving their hair and changing clothes was whether they were forced to change to barbarian clothes and cut off the clothes passed down by their ancestors.
Thinking of this, Zhong Jinwei was silent for a while without saying anything. After a while, he suddenly said: "What do you think will happen if I order all the new sergeants to shave their heads?"
Gu Baichuan was startled when he heard this. He could see that Marquis Zhongxing was serious.
After Gu Baichuan thought for a while, he replied: "It depends on how the Marquis shaves his head?"
"Oh, is there anything special about it?" Zhong Jinwei asked.
At this time, they had entered the Admiral's Yamen in the capital camp, and the soldiers on both sides performed new military salutes as required by the bell to enter the guard.
After Gu Baichuan waited for Zhong Jinwei to return the military salute, he explained to Zhong Jinwei: "If the Marquis wants the new soldiers to have their hair styled like that of barbarians, and forces them not to change it for the rest of their lives, then his subordinates will probably have
Many soldiers opposed it."
Seeing that Zhong Jinwei had entered the lobby, he waited for him to sit down and continued: "But if the Marquis is like the barber, he takes care of his hair for some reasons, even if it is shorter, it is acceptable."
Zhong Jinwei sat on the chair, put his hands on the table and thought for a while, then said to Gu Baichuan: "I understand, go back and find some barbers for me."
When Gu Baichuan heard this, he was obviously a little surprised and asked Zhong Jinwei uncertainly: "Master Hou, do you really want to shave?"
Zhong Jinwei nodded, isn't this nonsense? Why don't you shave your head and find a barber?
Gu Baichuan was a little wary, and then asked: "Master Marquis, what kind of hair style do you plan to give the new sergeant?"
When Zhong Jinwei heard this, he didn't talk nonsense. He took off his official hat directly, pointed to his head and said: "It can be shorter than mine."
In later generations, he had a shaved head. He had been in the Ming Dynasty for about a year, and his hair had grown a lot. However, in the eyes of Ming Dynasty people, it was still very short.
Normally, Zhong Jinwei always wears a hat, so Gu Baichuan and others don't pay much attention to it.
Zhong Jinwei took off his hat and pointed at his own head, and the focus suddenly focused on his head.
Zhong Jinwei saw that his group of guards were a little surprised. He smiled and said: "Don't underestimate this hair. You are knowledgeable. I will tell you."
The guards, including the four children, all looked at Zhong Jinwei curiously, wondering what theory he was going to come up with.
So Zhong Jinwei told them all the reasons he thought of that would persuade the soldiers to shave their heads.
After talking for a long time and explaining some more, Zhong Jinwei finally finished speaking, and then he asked: "In this case, can I shave my head?"
Gu Baichuan and others looked at each other, and after a while they gave Zhong Jinwei a reply.
