It is known that Cixi's son Tongzhi Emperor died young, but many people can't tell how he died. According to my grandfather, Emperor Tongzhi was nineteen when he died. Many ministers at that time, including some eunuchs, were not toys. Tongzhi is still a child. In order to get what they want, money and power, they seduce him with beautiful women and often take him to the brothels in Cai Hutong. Emperor Tongzhi was young, not very sensible, and accidentally contracted sexually transmitted diseases. In fact, if the disease is treated in time, it will not be life-threatening. But he is an emperor. An emperor who has this disease will never be justified and will only die in the end.

Emperor Tongzhi ascended the throne at the age of 6, sitting in the dragon chair of 13, and hurried through the life of 19. As an emperor, he did nothing on the stage of history, but caught up with the era of "tongzhi rejuvenating the country" and enjoyed the dignity of "whether the world is a king or a king". No brothers compete with him for power and profit, and he lives a luxurious life. After his death, people talked about his death with relish, and all kinds of rumors were inconclusive. His political achievements are unparalleled, but he is famous for scandals and anecdotes.

Before liberation, the situation here was really complicated. Many officials and rich people came here for prostitution. At night, the streets of palm trees are crowded. If you want to go there, unless you have the patience to wait, you have to walk sideways, selling snacks, playing tricks, all kinds of small businesses and visiting brothels. In short, the whole street is very lively and brightly lit, even in winter. At that time, it was really a world of flowers and flowers, and there were many people. The whole city of Beijing was the most lively here. At that time, almost all these areas were brothels? In addition, there is Hanjiatan, which is now Hanjiahutong, because there are some horse farms there, which are now called entertainment cities, and people from south to north take that road.

Our street was first called Widow Wang, which was in the Qing Dynasty. I also heard from the old man. Later, it was renamed Wang Guangfu Xie Jie in the Republic of China, and now it is called Palm Xie Jie. I really don't know how this street got its name. After liberation, the names of many hutongs here have changed. For example, Boxing Hutong, formerly known as Boxing Hall; There is also a breeze passage, which is an alley with a fragrant bathhouse. It used to be called Yanxingtang, but now it's called * * * bath. At that time, there were no brothels around here except Dali Shamao Hutong, which is now Dali Hutong. Other hutongs are simply brothels, almost all of which are door-to-door brothels. The distribution of * * * in eight hutongs is also very regular, such as Wang Pi Hutong, Caijiahutong, Liuwei Hutong, Zhumaohutong and Yan Jia Hutong, which belong to places with more * * * in the north, while Han Jia Hutong and Stone Hutong have more * * * in the south. I remember almost all brothels going door to door. A place with a brothel is definitely the most chaotic place. I have lived here since I was a child. When I was a child, my family was very strict. Basically, I am near my home. Dare not go out to play casually. The main reason is the chaos here, and the adults are not at ease.
