Chapter 880: The Inner Court System
When Dequan, the chief manager of the Inner Palace, happily led the three veiled palace ladies back to the Qianqing Palace.
A little eunuch hurriedly greeted him, and after whispering, Dequan's eyes blinked, and he asked the three palace ladies to wait outside the palace, and he himself cautiously entered the Qianqing Palace.
After Dequan entered the Qianqing Palace, he saw that the Moon Emperor Concubine was there. His brows trembled, he didn't dare to breathe, and carefully stood in the corner to wait. Everyone in the palace knows that the Imperial Concubine Moon is the most powerful one among the imperial concubines, and the intelligence guards and the black-clothed guards can all speak, and Yang Yu, the "inner secretary" who is in charge of the affairs of the palace maids, seems to be the confidant of the Imperial Concubine Yue.
Qin Feng didn't expect Xiao Yue to leave and come back, when he saw Dequan coming back, he said don't show his stuff, so he waved his hand secretly, pulled Xiao Yue'er to look at the inner room, and said: "I thought that I would really be alone tonight, and it was better for my Xiao Yue'er to ......." ”
With his own palace maid going in to serve, Dequan breathed a sigh of relief, hurriedly rushed out, and sent the three palace ladies immediately. The opportunity to serve the Son of Heaven slipped away like this, and maybe he would never see the Son of Heaven again in this life, and the three beautiful girls left very disappointed.
In the dormitory, while serving Qin Feng's wide clothes with her own hands, the Moon Emperor Concubine said with resentment: "Sister Diao Chan has the title of "noble concubine", so what about the concubine? ”
"It's ......." Qin Feng was in a dilemma.
Concubine Yue Huang chuckled and said, "It doesn't matter if the concubines are gone, it's just that the other sisters are worried that their names will fall behind, and I'm afraid they will never see Your Majesty again." After all, there are only a few at the top. In fact, they will not rush to fight for "Zhaoyi" and "Jieyu", just not "beloved" and "young envoys". ”
Qin Feng really didn't understand the title of the imperial concubine in the palace. Wen Yan scratched his head.
Concubine Yue said again: "The relationship between the sisters is good, but it is four or five grades worse. It's not good to see each other. ”
When Qin Feng heard this, he suddenly realized, and he accepted the award like a later generation. One, two, three, even the third place is also good, and it is very embarrassing to be able to stand on a platform. He held the hand of the Moon Emperor and said, "It's really my good Yue'er, if it weren't for Yue'er, I wouldn't have figured it out." ”
"It's good that Your Majesty knows, and then Yue'er will leave. It would not be good if the sisters knew that the concubine was left alone tomorrow. The Moon Emperor said.
Qin Feng was relieved when he heard this, and was talking about sending Xiao Yue'er out. Outside the dormitory, there was a report from Dequan. "Your Majesty, Concubine Fu is here!"
Qin Feng was stunned when he heard this, and the Moon Emperor Concubine smiled and slapped her jade hand on his chest, "Look, someone is here again." Maybe there will be more and more in a while, and Your Majesty should quickly ponder and change the palace rules. ”
Sure enough, after Fu Shou came, the Zhen sisters, Mi Huan, step trainer, Huang Yueying, Chu Feiyu and other imperial concubines came, and the Qiao sisters, Mrs. Cai, Mrs. Fan, and Sun Shangxiang also came with a big belly. The princesses didn't expect everyone to think of one place. Just take your place in the Qianqing Palace.
The imperial concubines lowered their heads and looked at each other, the lights shone on the resentful Huarong, seeing that Qin Feng was "haggard" in his heart, he said, "Tomorrow." Tomorrow there will be a satisfactory result....... ”
He thought that he could sleep together on the first day of the new year, but after the concubines got his message, they got up and saluted together. Under Qin Feng's stunned gaze. didn't speak, and they all left one by one.
Qin Feng closed his mouth in front of him. Looking at the deserted Qianqing Palace, he smiled bitterly.
Then. Seeing that the imperial concubines were gone, Dequan dared to walk into the inner dormitory, bowed down and said, "Your Majesty, do you want to call someone to serve you?" ”
Qin Feng was also in the mood, and with a wave of his hand, Dequan and the others also went down.
After saying that the concubines were gone, Qin Feng sat alone in the dormitory. At this time, a petite figure walked in, and it turned out to be Xin Xianying. It's making beds again, and it's stacking quilts again. Qin Feng pondered, when he was in the palace, because there were enough conditions, it was different from when he went on the expedition. After moving to the Forbidden City, Qin Feng also gave Xin Xianying a palace and a eunuch palace maid.
How did you come today?
It turned out that the fact that 100,000 migrant workers did not want to pay was getting paid, so Xin Xianying saw that the people loved Qin Feng so much, so she naturally had to take care of it. Now I have made up my mind to be a good historian during the day and a good personal maid at night. Of course, Xin Xianying made up her mind again, only when there was no imperial concubine in the palace.
It's always good to have a beautiful woman to accompany you, and Qin Feng didn't say anything. He was pondering the affairs of the imperial concubines, and he had not studied the grades in the palace. Looking at the graceful back that can make anyone think of committing a crime, he asked, "Xianying, come and sit down and tell me about the status of the concubine of the former dynasty." ”
Xin Xianying understood Qin Feng's distress, she came to the seat beside Qin Feng, knelt down dignifiedly, and said: "When the Western Han Dynasty was first established, the emperor's wife was called the queen, and the concubines were all called Mrs. There are a total of eight grades: queen, lady, beauty, lover, eighth son, seventh son, long envoy, and young envoy. By the time of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, Jieyu, Jing'e, Ronghua, and Chongyi were added, each with a title. By the time of Emperor Yuan of the Han Dynasty, Zhaoyi was set up, second only to the empress, and since then, the number of harem concubines has reached 3,000. ”
In addition to the empress, the following emperors and concubines have fourteen ranks: Zhaoyi: the position is better than the prime minister, and the lord is more than the princes and kings.
Jieyu: Regarded as a prince, a prince of the twentieth rank.
Jing'e: The position is more than 2,000 stones, and the lord is more than the nineteenth rank of the Marquis of Guannei.
Rong Hua: The title here has dropped quite badly, and it is regarded as a sixteenth-class masterpiece.
Beauty: Regarded as 2,000 stones, the lord is less than the fifteenth-class one.
Then there are "eight sons", "seven sons", "beloved", "long envoy", "young envoy", "five senses", "shunchang", and finally there are no juan, republic, entertainment spirit, baolin, good envoy, and night, all of which are regarded as a hundred stones.
Obviously, the top of the rankings are different in terms of the palace they live in, the daily use, the number of attendants, and even the daily clothing and accessories. The imperial concubines of Emperor Hongwu were afraid to be at the back.
"I see, this is the origin of the three thousand beauties of the harem!" Qin Feng couldn't help but ponder, you said that there are three thousand people here, I'm afraid one one night doesn't have the energy, and one one in three nights is just right. So that is, 120 is almost a year, and 1200 is ten years. If you add it when you are not in good shape. 3,000 will not be repeated for 30 years!
"As a groom for thirty years, hehehehe......." Qin Feng couldn't help but drool when he thought of the subtlety.
Xin Xianying saw this. Suddenly, his pretty face was as cold as frost and said: "Your Majesty, when Emperor Han Xian." There were only more than 300 people in the harem, and now all of them have been dismissed. I heard that Master Zongzheng Fei Yi was recruiting everywhere, and all the ministers went up to the pole to make offerings. It seems that the number of three thousand will be able to be made up soon. ”
Qin Feng was in a YY state, and said with great joy: "That's really good, Fei Aiqing has merit!" ”
Xin Xianying was originally saying the opposite, in her opinion, after His Majesty heard it, with His Majesty's wisdom, he would definitely prevent the three thousand beauties from entering the palace. I didn't expect to be very happy. After she lost her complexion, she immediately took out the iron pen and dossier from her sleeve with a cold face, and in front of Qin Feng, she said loudly and wrote: "Emperor Hongwu is mediocre, and he is a good woman......." ”
This time it was Qin Feng's turn to be shocked, "You can't write like that!" Xianying, you think this Forbidden City is very big, and it needs people to take care of it, if the Forbidden City is covered with dust. I don't want to talk about my face, but I can't lose the face of the country. Don't worry, I'm just talking, and I won't think anything out of the ordinary. "It's weird. Qin Feng finally thought.
Qin Feng didn't say more, but ordered someone to find a classic book about the palace, and sent Xin Xianying away to study it himself.
He researched and found out. In later TV dramas, there are many mistakes. Ouchi guards only patrol the main hall and the outer castle. There are no guards in the harem of the inner city. Anything that has contact with the outer city, the concubine is not allowed to participate. Even palace maids are not allowed to participate. It was all eunuchs who did this, such as carrying water, delivering food and food, purchasing supplies, etc.
To put it simply, there are no women in the outer city of the palace, and there are no men in the harem of the inner city except for the emperor. The women of the harem, without the emperor's order, will not be able to walk out of the harem for half a step in their lives. Then someone asked, what to do if you are sick, the imperial doctor is a man.
There is a system, accompanied by the eunuchs and palace maids directly under the emperor's lineage throughout the whole process, and all the eunuchs and palace maids of the concubine's palace are present, and no one is allowed to leave the whole process. If you don't know each other before entering the palace, the imperial doctor won't know what the princess looks like for the rest of your life.
What concubine waved her hand, and all the eunuchs and maids in the palace left, it was all nonsense. The eunuchs and palace maids directly under His Majesty would not leave at all, and would immediately reach the emperor. When the emperor is angry, all the things of the eighteen generations of ancestors can be turned out for you, and the anger of the Son of Heaven will immediately be bloody.
So Qin Feng contacted the later generations to ponder, and he felt that he should not inherit some things from the Han family, and use all the things of the later dynasties. Perfection is also considered innovation at this time.
Written by candle night, during the Chinese New Year, Qin Feng began to improve the palace rules of the Great Qin State, and passed it on to future generations, that is, the ancestral system.
New Year's Day.
When it was just dawn, Qin Feng got up under Xin Xianying's service. Dequan led a large group of eunuchs and palace maids to bow to the side, and they knew very well in their hearts that in this palace, except for the relatives of the Son of Heaven, only Xin Shiguan was the most favored by the Son of Heaven.
At Mao Shi, that is, at five or six o'clock, the civil and military officials of the Great Qin State came to the square in front of the Taihe Palace. Around the square, under the arrangement of the celebrant eunuch, a team of honor guards and musical instruments has been arranged, with chimes and golden drums and horns, which are solemn and lively.
At seven o'clock, Qin Feng's holy car came to the Taihe Hall and ascended to the throne of Longtai. The chief manager of the inner hall shook off the dust and shouted: "Your Majesty has a will, and hundreds of officials will meet you!" ”
"Your Majesty has a will, pass on the audience of hundreds of officials!"
Seven or eight little eunuchs shouted along the way, and only then did Qin Feng's will be conveyed to the square outside the palace.
So, hundreds of officials divided into two teams entered the Taihe Palace, and they did not dare to mess up according to their ranks, knelt on the ground and bowed three times and nine times, and gave the emperor Qin Feng a New Year's greeting.
Subsequently, Xu Shu made a New Year's message, wishing the Great Qin Hongwu Dynasty immortal blessings and longevity. Xun Yu made a summary last year, the Hongwu Dynasty was peaceful and prosperous, the people lived and worked in peace and contentment, the tax revenue was 50 million yuan, the military expenditure was 30 million yuan, the government spent 10 million yuan, and the surplus income was 10 million yuan.
Now that the consistency of the Great Qin Kingdom is roughly equivalent to one or two pieces of silver in the prosperous era of later generations, Qin Feng is still very satisfied with the balance of 10 million yuan. After all, when Lord Qianlong succeeded to the throne in later generations, it was only 50 million taels of treasury.
The hundred officials were beaming, and said in their hearts that I Hongwu Emperor was wise and wise, and the Great Qin Kingdom was thriving, and I would definitely be able to dominate the world in the future.
So, the hundred officials knelt down again, wishing the Great Qin State thousands of generations, and Qin Feng, the joyful Hongwu Emperor, would give him tea. In the Eastern Han Dynasty, there was already a custom of writing Spring Festival couplets on the peach board, and Qin Feng had a whim, so he asked people to bring the red Yedu paper, wrote a few big blessing words, and gave them to the important ministers.
Dian Wei was overjoyed, and after taking it home, he framed it and hung it on the main hall.
The hundred officials pondered in their hearts, everyone said that General Dian Wei was honest, and I think he was really wise and foolish. A hundred years after Emperor Hongwu, this is the word given by Taizu, or the word "Fu", and such a word is hung at home, then it can really follow the prosperous Great Qin State, and the family will prosper for thousands of generations. Maybe something goes wrong sometime, and it can be used as a gold medal to avoid death.
At the same time, Cai Yan, the wife of Emperor Hongwu, also accepted the worship of the imperial concubines and the wives of hundreds of officials in the Jiaotai Hall behind the Qianqing Palace.
Outside the palace, in the sound of firecrackers, there are bright red Spring Festival couplets hanging in front of every house. People wore new clothes and visited relatives and friends with joy, and for a while, Daqin fell into the joy of the first day of the new year. (To be continued......)
