It is said that the word "Bai Xiang" in Shanghai gossip was originally called "Bo Xiang", which refers to children playing and playing in Suzhou. Because false writing has become a "white face", the "white face" has changed a little now. It is no longer just a matter for children, and sometimes even adults have a share. In the old days, white-faced people were unemployed and hooligans who had no proper occupation or expertise.

It is impossible to prove when the word "white phase" began to be spoken in the mouths of Shanghainese. From Shanghai literature, there are two kinds of views: Bai Xiang (playing) and Bai Xiang Ren. In fact, there are more than two kinds of views.

The contradiction "Midnight"-"You have a good discussion with him, and you will go to save Xiu-mei He when the white photographers run her over to a calm place."

Ye Shengtao's Ni Huanzhi-"Look at this group of people, who wear long clothes, look like students, wear short clothes, look like workers or' white people', some can name them, and some look familiar."

Xia Yan's Under the Roof of Shanghai-"Little Tianjin-a young man with the style of" white portrait ",pushed the door and came in, took a look at everyone and went upstairs."

Bai Xiangren, in fact, is also a polysemous word from the literal point of view-Bai Xiang-ren, which means that the object of Bai Xiang is people; It can also be understood as a person-a white man. At this time, the explanation is not unemployed and hooligans.

Ambiguity-"It's fun to fight with heaven, and it's fun to fight with people." I forgot the difference in this sentence. Can't this word of fighting with others be understood by the Shanghai gossip "Bai Xiang Yi"? I don't know if it is a bit similar to playing with him and fighting him to death. Bobo once said a Shanghai gossip-"I don't want to cross Iraq for nothing, so I will leave Iraq (kill him)."

Liu Bang, the emperor gaozu of Han Dynasty, is one of the white faces from ancient times to the present, because there are written records that he is a rogue, and Xiang Yu, the overlord of Chu, is a nobleman. Don't be a rogue like Edie. Zhu Yuanzhang is one of them. It is recorded in writing that he is a refugee, begging for food, and being able to go from the temple to the palace is really a bomber in the White Man (B52). This kind of white man in history has also been passed down, from the white man in Qinhuai Lake in Nanjing to Kunming Lake in Yanjing.

There is another kind of white-faced person, such as Pan Jinlian, the white-faced person of Ximen Qing in the Song Dynasty, who was finally disowned by Wu Song. Ximen Qing belongs to hooligans, but he is not a vagrant. He is a bit like a corrupt official playing mistress.

the real white man is Zhang Dai in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties. Zhang Dai, who calls himself "very fond of prosperity", likes beautiful villas, enchanting girls, gorgeous clothes, delicious food, tall horses and magical fireworks best. I like antiques with green rust and flowers and birds with beautiful feathers; I like collecting books, tasting tea, and being lively, such as beating gongs and drums, singing in the pear garden and fighting cocks and riding horses.

Ma Weidou is a fighter among the contemporary "white-faced people". White faces are transparent, free and easy, intelligent and awesome. But once someone asked Ma Ye, "Who do you admire most in your life?" Master Ma didn't even think about it. He answered directly: Wang Shixiang! Wang Shixiang is a fighter among modern white photographers and the first player in Yanjing. Both Ma and Wang may be influenced by social environment, so they can't be compared with Zhang Dai.

Du Yuesheng, who was heard at sea, is a white man, and an old Du Bai is a man. He must be a master and fighter, otherwise he would not be able to eat both black and white. There is his mausoleum in Taipei and his Du Mansion in Shanghai, and the sea is full of people.

According to the above ambiguity, I think there are three or four ways to interpret the word Bai Xiangren-in order to fight for power and profit, Bai Xiangren is one kind. Like Ximen Qing, Pan Jinlian is also a white man, but he belongs to another type. Then there is the white man on the rivers and lakes in Du Yuesheng, which is the third kind. The last kind of white face person represented by Zhang Dai, the object of white face is things rather than people. Whether it makes sense or not, I'm just throwing bricks to attract jade, and I'm not sure. Our country's writing is extensive and profound, and the historical origin of our country's white-faced people is long. I'm not as good at writing in white as others, but I can also enjoy writing in white.
