MTL - Happiness Consist in Contentment-v18 Chapter 24 (6)
And the head of the village, holding the household register, one by one, to bring people to the imperial envoy, who will be selected by the imperial envoy.
This team of imperial envoys is composed of officials from the Ministry of Rites, officials from the clan's government, the nanny of the Ministry of Education of the Palace, the maids, and the female doctors of the Imperial Hospital.
First of all, the selection criteria are: no flaws on the body, good facial features, normal posture, and good health.
Regardless of birth height, rich or poor, it only depends on whether the background is innocent, whether the character is honest, and whether the family style is clear.
That's right, the draft at this time also has certain requirements for family style.
Because it is a concubine, the specifications are naturally different. The first screening eliminated most of them, leaving only the best looking ones.
This is also normal.
Although it is said that only the facial features are correct, but as the emperor's concubine, how can it be a beautiful woman? At least it's up to the standard of beauty, that's all!
Even if it's not the kind of beauty who is alluring the country and the city, she has to be beautiful and have characteristics, and others will have an impression at a glance, and only then can they be selected.
Under the same healthy conditions, it must be good-looking to stay.
The selection was very fast, and people from outside the town came to participate in the election every day, but it took only three days to complete the selection, leaving only three people. It is conceivable how picky this appointed person is.
After that, the women in Nanjin Town went to run for election, and Liu Fang naturally went too.
For the past two days, Mrs. Fang has been sighing, always regretting not marrying Liu Fang earlier. What can Liu Fang do? She can only comfort her and tell her that she doesn't think the draft is bad, and she doesn't necessarily feel that way. Can you choose?
In Nanjin Town, she may be considered a first-class beauty, after all, Mrs. Chen is also good-looking, although her temperament is honest. But when it comes to the whole country, it is really unknown at the bottom!
Therefore, Liu Fang really doesn't think that she will be selected, and the high probability is that she will be eliminated after arriving in Fucheng.
Hearing what she said, Mrs. Fang felt it made sense. Liu Fu also came back. Hearing Liu Fang's words, she just looked at her and didn't refute anything. But in her heart, she felt that her own sister would definitely be chosen.
It's not that Liu Fang is really beautiful, it's just that Liu Fu's own intuition is like that. Besides, Concubine Chen is so wonderfully prosperous
Sub-physique, maybe my sister also has it? If the emperor knew, how could he not choose his sister? The royal family has always believed in these things.
Liu Fang can't think of this at all now. She just thinks objectively that she will not be selected. After all, the Liu family is not a famous family. For the emperor, it really has no effect, right?
Therefore, she went to the election very calmly.
The yamen in the town—the town here also has yamen, and the women who are running for the election all come here in carriages. These carriages are all sent to each family by imperial envoys to bring people, and no preparations are required from each family.
Entering from the gate of the yamen, the carriage went directly into the backyard, and then a palace maid came to help them get off the carriage. Liu Fang was wearing a light blue dress and looked only elegant and decent. Compared with other wealthy women who wore gold and red, she was simply the most simple one.
When they entered the backyard, there was a nanny from the Education Bureau standing there waiting. First, the female doctor stepped forward and gave them a pulse one by one. Those who were unqualified would be taken away, which was equivalent to being eliminated.
The rest stepped forward one by one, walked back and forth two or three times in front of the nanny of the Education Bureau, and then entered a room next to them, took off their clothes, and thoroughly checked their bodies for flaws.
At this time, anyone with a birthmark will be eliminated. Don't say your birthmark is like a plum blossom, like nothing. Anyway, a mole is not allowed.
What is Bai Yu Wuxia, that's all.
Liu Fang's body is clean and nothing, because the Liu family is like this, there is really no mole, and the same is true for the Chen family.
Even if there were, they were all ordered when they were young. This was really important in ancient times, and they would not let their children have such flaws.
It's harsh, but it's still an option.
After the inspection, put on your clothes, and if there is no problem, you can stay.
As for those who have a mole that leads to elimination, there is really no way. The Royal Draft is so harsh.
After a lot of calculations, the entire Nanjin Town chose ten people, and then directly gave one day to say goodbye to their families, and left for Fucheng the next day.
Because of Liu Fang's candidacy, Liu Jie, Liu Rong and the others hurriedly returned with their wives and children, and seeing their sister, Liu Jie, and Liu Rong, who were also carrying baby fat, were particularly uncomfortable.
"As soon as you enter the palace gate, it's as deep as the sea, second sister, you go to the palace city. If you lose the election, that's all. If you are selected to stay, then you must remember that taking care of yourself is the most important thing. I don't need you at home.
Don't worry, you just need to take care of yourself. "
Liu Jie raised his hand and patted Liu Fang's shoulder, and the uncomfortable eyes were red.
Liu Rong sighed and said, "Originally, I didn't want to take the exam anymore, but now, oh, it's impossible to not take the exam!"
To be honest, Liu Jie and Liu Rong are not stupid, but they just don't want to go to office, so they didn't continue the imperial examinations. After taking the exam, Hangcheng Mansion already has a good position in Nanjin Town, and can bless his family, so he doesn't want to toss anymore.
But now, their sister is going to enter the palace, and they can't do it if they don't want to take the test.
Liu Fang's nose was sour, "Big brother, second brother, you don't have to do this, you should just continue to live safely in Fucheng."
Liu Jie smiled and said, "Stupid, it's not up to you and me to think about it. If you lose the election, it's fine. If you are selected, then my second brother and I will really have to continue the test. ."
Liu Fang understood, too. Entering the biggest house in the world, she is no longer herself, but also represents her family, and in order for the family to be safe, there must be corresponding people in the family to serve, only then can the family's tranquility be preserved .
The so-called imperial power, the so-called politics/governance, is like this. There is not so much warmth, and there is not so much gentle wind and drizzle. More are, plan ahead, strength is respected!
That's right, in such a circle, it depends on their own strength. Those without strength will eventually become chess pieces, and they don't know what happened when they are cannon fodder.
Now, Liu Fang can only hope that she will not be selected, if not, it will be really troublesome.
As for running away? suspended animation? It can be. But what we have to do during this period is not a little bit, nor can it be done in a short time. In addition, how could she make Liu Cheng and the others bear such charges inexplicably, and spend their whole lives, even several generations, tremblingly?
Don't say day/clothes/seamless, as long as it is done, it doesn't say it's absolutely fine, absolutely no one finds it. As long as one person finds out, the entire Liu family will be ruined, completely ruined.
Liu Fang can't ignore the life and death of all Liu family members for his own comfort, at least he can't just run away.
Why can't she enter the palace? Is she extraordinarily precious, or is she extraordinarily different?
Yes, she is a tasker, and she has a different mind than people in this world. But in the final analysis, she was also raised by the Liu family, and she was also doted on by her family since childhood. Just because entering the palace as a concubine was unsatisfactory and aggrieved,
Feeling uncomfortable, she ran away, but she was at ease. But what about the Liu family? Liu Cheng, what should they do?
If no one finds out, well, they all think their daughter and sister are dead, are they sad? Sad or not? Then, when the limelight passes, Liu Fang will appear again?
What is this for?
Let the family know that she faked death?
OK, that's it. But what will the Liu family think?
Liu Fang has never been out of Nanjin Town since he was a child, and the number of trips to Fucheng is limited, let alone other places. How was she able to silently feign death? How did you do it? How can this be explained?
Even if her explanation was accepted by the Liu family. But she faked her death, why did she run back? Do you want to drag the Liu family to die together? Are you afraid that others will not know?
Don't say she has space, she is not afraid. No, she is afraid!
She is really afraid. I am afraid that my family will be sad, and I am afraid that her family will not be peaceful in the future when they are implicated by her.
A lie requires countless lies to cover up, and in the end, it will only grow bigger and bigger like a snowball, until it is completely out of control.
And what is the result? There is only one: disobeying the imperial edict and beheading the whole family!
Don't say that in ancient times, there were more bulls with golden fingers. The truth is that no matter how bullish people are, they must have the bottom line of being a human being. Otherwise, they are not human beings, they are lunatics.
Liu Fang is not crazy.
She is reluctant to enter the palace, but she doesn't want to implicate her family, let alone hurt her family.
So, under the circumstances, she still thinks that she can lose the election normally.
If there is really no way out, in fact, entering the palace doesn't matter, she is not that persistent.
What a lifetime of a couple, love is supreme, emotional cleanliness and so on, she really didn't take it so seriously.
To put it in a nasty way, to be a concubine in the palace is to spend the emperor's money, eat and drink his money, and prostitute him for free. This is not really a disadvantage, is it?
In short, Liu Fang will not do anything to escape.
This will only get more and more tossing, and one bad move may kill the Liu family.
She's not really a person who likes tossing.
Most of the time, she had to toss to toss.
If she had a choice, she would usually choose the kind of life that was not tossed about.
If you have a golden finger, tossing hard is all fine. Liu Fang has no idea or habit of doing. If she had done it, then her previous mission would not have been like that.
Just like the mission of Guo Ling (the prince's concubine), she
There are other ways to run, so why doesn't she run? Wasn't he just afraid of Guo Ling's madness?
This time too. Who knows what will happen to her after she runs away? It must be better? perhaps.
But after Liu Fang ran away, the Liu family, the relatives in front of her, they were absolutely bad.
Don't forget, the ancient imperial power is not to be provoked. Don't say she faked her death, even if she is really dead, at the moment of this draft, the Liu family will have a **** face. Believe it or not?
Otherwise, why are there so many harem women in the history books that few dare to commit suicide? The country is broken. Under the peaceful and prosperous world, the concubines of the harem, if they want to die, they must obey the emperor's will.
If the concubines in the harem commit suicide, they are contempt for the imperial power. What's more, she wants to defy the imperial edict and not participate in the draft directly? Oh, the nature is the same, and it is also contempt for imperial power.
Even if it is really dead, the Liu family will be implicated and suffer.
Therefore, don't think about it so beautiful. In ancient times, when you meet a talent show, you can choose honestly, whatever you do, anyway, you have to live, not for yourself, but also think about raising your family, right?
Why do others have to accompany you to die? There is no reason for this.
Although suffocating, this is the real ancient times. No one is exempt.
The author has something to say: Well, although the background is overhead, I try to use the real ancient form as the background. In other words, the supremacy of imperial power will not change.
PS: In real ancient times, the requirements for drafts and concubines in the harem were really strict in history. In the same way, trying to escape the draft was a sin that had to be implicated in ancient times.
Obviously it is the Ming Dynasty, which is proved by history.
The drafts recorded in the Ming Dynasty history books were all selected from the people, but if it was found that they were deliberately evading drafts, they would all be implicated. Therefore, it is not that the scumbag author deliberately tossed Fangfang, it is really impossible to do so.
Suspended death is easy, but after suspended animation, all that is left to the Liu family are sins.
The ancient emperors never thought: Oh, if you don't want to, then forget it.
No, the emperor will only think: as my subject, you have to escape even the draft, that is a challenge to my authority, absolutely not allowed!
Readers who have a little understanding of the history of concubines and concubines in the harem will probably understand that starting in the Tang Dynasty, any concubines who committed suicide in the harem would affect their families. Especially in the Qing Dynasty, it was really worthless
life!
A typical example is that the concubines of the Kangxi period, even if they died or died of illness, if they encountered Kangxi's dissatisfaction, their family members would be reprimanded or sent to Ninggu Pagoda. This is also historically based. (Of course, the real reason may not be because the harem concubines died in the harem, so we won't go into details.)
Therefore, although the scumbag writers are fictional, they try to use the real ancient reality as the background.
(Of course, I would have written it without that context, but that's the context of this story.)
If you don't like it, you can choose not to watch it.
Really, after writing for so long, I learned a lesson: no matter how you write, you will never be able to satisfy everyone.
[heart block]
Well, in addition, I recently got sick and read Dashen's article "Life with Money".
To be honest, it's a very realistic text, I like it if I like it, and it also makes me have a lot of introspection.
You can also go and see it, really, the writing is very realistic, and the writing is also very good. (Anyway, I feel very good!)
☆, 461, The Concubine 4
The family had a reunion dinner. Liu Fang rested at Liu's house for one night. The next morning, he got on a carriage and left Liu's house. He arrived at the yamen with other beautiful girls, and was reassigned. Five people rode in a carriage. , went to the Fucheng.
As for Liu Fang not long after leaving, how to discuss with the Liu family together, and then Liu Jie, Liu Rong and his wife and children also returned to Fucheng, so I won't talk more.
It is only said that Liu Fang rode the carriage all the way to Fucheng, then entered the yamen of Fucheng, joined with the beautiful girls selected from other places, and then listened to the advice of the aunt in charge of the selection in Fucheng. Then began the three-day palace rule training.
On the first night alone, many beautiful girls with indecent sleeping positions were eliminated. The rest got up early in the morning, received training, and after an hour passed, they were eliminated again.
The training actually looks very simple, just walking, but there are also different regulations for this walking. In the palace, the walking, sitting, and lying of concubines are all strict to the point of harshness. Therefore, everyone is tossing enough just to go this one.
Liu Fang has learned it before, even if it has been useless for a long time, she still remembers it in her bones. So it's not difficult to learn it, but it's just a little bit uncomfortable.
Originally, she thought that she could not learn it on purpose, and then she would be eliminated, but the eyes of the aunts of the Education Bureau are really amazing, who did it on purpose and who really couldn't learn it at a glance. If it is really deliberately tossing, then these maids will not be polite, just drag it down, and throw it directly to the officials of the city according to the charge of violating the imperial edict.
Seeing that, Liu Fang really didn't dare to toss, so she could only do what she should do honestly.
In fact, she has long known that if these people are not serious, everything is easy to say if they put in some money or something. But now it seems that these people are very serious, and their attitude towards this draft is extremely serious. Liu Fang feels that he really can't do anything.
During the lunch break, the maids who followed would massage/massage their whole bodies to relax their muscles to ensure that they would not be exhausted. There are also female doctors who follow the pulse at all times, even if they want to take medicine and pretend to be sick, they can't find a chance.
Liu Fang didn't know what happened to others, but she herself was quite heartbroken.
In her previous assignments, she had also experienced drafts, but it was not so severe. It's just the level of perversion, she's really scared anyway.
As time passed, more and more people were eliminated every day, until there were only ten people left.
Yes, the whole city
In the end, there were only ten people left. As a beautiful girl who could finally enter the palace to run for election, it was an extreme exaggeration.
All of these people are one-of-a-kind beauties, and Liu Fang is like a maid among them.
But she didn't care either.
From this moment on, their daily life and food are all in charge of the maids in the palace. The palace maid next to Liu Fang was called Mo Shu. She was about thirteen years old. She looked young, but her temperament was calm. Most of them were usually very taciturn. But her eyesight is very powerful, but in just half a day, she clearly knew Liu Fang's preferences and daily habits, which made Liu Fang speechless.
And the clothes of these beautiful girls have also become the uniforms distributed by the palace, with green bottom and white gauze dresses, with a light green shawl, and high-bottomed palace shoes on their feet.
The carriage was also different from the previous one. Everyone sat alone, accompanied only by the maids who followed, and there was no one else.
Outside, the guards, soldiers, and guards followed the guards, and went directly to the capital.
From south to north, you need to take a boat, and then go to Jingchengfu to change horses and carriages, and you can reach Kyoto.
The official boat for the draft is very large, with four floors. The show girls live on the second floor, the third floor is for the guards, the bottom floor is for the boatman, cook and others, and the fourth floor is for the maids and palace maids of the Education Bureau. , female doctors, officials of the Ministry of Rites, etc.
The ten beautiful girls were all from the Jiangnan water town, so they did not suffer from seasickness. However, none of them were seasick, but there were quite a few seasicks among the nanny who was in charge of this draft. Therefore, for a few days on the boat, these beautiful girls could only stay in their rooms reading books and painting, and they didn't have much time to walk around. After all, as show girls, they need to pay attention to their identities at all times, and they cannot contact the accompanying foreign men.
The so-called "accompanying males" refers to all males, including officials of the Ministry of Rites, soldiers guarding and so on.
In short, they can only touch women, and no one can touch them except women.
Liu Fang is actually a little strange, isn't there a profession of **** ① in this world?
Of course, she didn't really care that much, she was just a little curious.
The waterway in the Jin Dynasty should be very developed. Although you can't walk around at will, just from the view from the room and the view through the window, you know that the journey is really smooth. In addition, the supply locations along the road also saw very prosperous piers, soldiers patrolling near the piers, and water
There are many soldiers on patrol.
This can reflect on the side that the Jin Dynasty was a relatively developed and powerful country with a navy.
Although the founding of the dynasty is not long, it is indeed a Mingjun who has gone through several generations, and he has done a lot.
Looking at this, Liu Fang actually already had a general impression of the current reigning Emperor Xuan: a wise and enlightened monarch.
And such a monarch, generally speaking, does not do anything for no reason. In connection with the previous generations of emperors, Liu Fang naturally had some guesses. This so-called draft is probably a means of Emperor Xuan of Jin's way of rectifying the officials in the court.
If this is the case, then it is not necessarily because of beauty alone that he will be selected, and it may also be because of various family backgrounds. After all, in order to rectify the governance of officials, the imperial power must first be consolidated. Once the imperial power is consolidated, the emperor can speak of rectifying the governance of the officials. Otherwise, no matter how to rectify it, it will only be temporary and it needs to be continued for a long time, and it is not that simple.
It's been a long time since I've experienced this, and when I think about it, Liu Fang's head hurts.
She really would rather she lost the election and then went home to avoid getting involved in such a thing.
However, Liu Jie and the others have already keenly felt that the significance of this draft, they will definitely prepare first, take a look at the final draft results and decide whether or not to go to work.
Liu Fang looked at the scenery of the mountains and forests outside the window. Although it was far away, it was still far away. She knew that if she really got involved in this situation of imperial power, the Liu family would have no choice but to enter the situation to protect themselves.
Besides being the emperor's knife, do they have any other choice? there is none left.
In any case, after three days on the waterway, they arrived at the pier of Jingcheng Mansion, and the whole pier had been emptied in order to let these beautiful girls disembark.
A passage was encircled with a curtain, a hat was put on, and the palace maid was holding the hand of the palace maid, wearing a uniform palace attire, ten beautiful women disembarked one after another, boarded the carriage, and then went all the way to Kyoto.
It only takes two days to get from Jingchengfu to Kyoto. If you hurry up, you can arrive in one day.
When they arrived in Kyoto, these beautiful girls could not enter the palace, they could only enter the royal courtyard outside the suburbs of Beijing and live in the middle of Lanhua Residence.
It is said to be Lanhuaju, but in fact it is a large palace complex. There are more than 20 small courtyards alone, with countless pavilions and pavilions. The beautiful women of each city live in a small courtyard, and the small courtyard is divided into main rooms. There are two small cross-courts in the east and west compartments, not to mention ten beautiful girls, even if they live in another twenty, it is more than enough.
Liu
Fang divided a small compartment in the west wing, which is not big, but also divided into an inner and outer room, which is enough for living. The small bathroom is also spacious enough and quite comfortable. The most important thing is that the Jin Dynasty already had a squat toilet. Although it was made of blue bricks, it was clean enough and not troublesome.
After settling down, all the show girls began to learn palace rules and etiquette. What they studied in Fucheng before was only one-sided, but now they need to learn the most in-depth, and the most difficult, just being watched by the bishop every day to eat, walk, sit and lie down is enough to drive people crazy .
Anyway, it took several days for Liu Fang to get used to it before she could fall asleep completely. It's been a long time since she hadn't been stared at to sleep, so she wasn't used to it.
In the process of learning the palace rules, some people were also eliminated one after another. In just half a month, 2,000 beautiful girls were selected from all over the country, and only 300 were left in the end.
Liu Fang's grades are not lost, and he will not talk about his appearance. The same is not lost, and he almost came to the bottom.
Anyway, among the beautiful girls here, there are many smarter than her, and even more beautiful than her.
The longer he stayed, the more Liu Fang felt, the lower the chance of being selected.
Most of the beautiful girls who were eliminated in the process of learning the palace rules were because they couldn't bear the hardships or the guilt, so those who were a little bit short of the rules were eliminated. At this time, it doesn't matter what your identity is or what Family background, once the palace rules are unqualified, they will all be eliminated.
Speaking of which, this was also specially explained by Emperor Xuan of Jin. Although he needed a concubine to rectify the court, he did not want to choose some self-righteous women to enter the palace. Therefore, he had already ordered: the draft must be strict, and no favoritism should be allowed. Those who fail to pass the palace rules must be eliminated!
Therefore, the maids of the Bishop's Bureau took the attitude of training palace maids to teach these beautiful girls. Naturally, there are not many who can persevere to the end.
But such rigorous training is indeed fruitful. As the saying goes, it takes seven days to develop a habit, and after half a month of rigorous training, the palace rules of this group of beautiful girls are completely qualified, and the average level is not low.
At this time, those who were eliminated again were not because of the palace regulations, but because of other courses.
If you think that as the emperor's concubine, you only need to understand the palace rules, then you are wrong.
Royal children, what they have seen and heard since childhood are different from ordinary people. Moreover, an excellent royal child is always good at proficient. And Emperor Xuan of Jin himself has a wide range of interests, extensive knowledge, and is proficient in countless things. anyway
Liu Fang listened to the meaning of the bishop, there is nothing in this world that Emperor Xuan of Jin would not know.
Therefore, this is a perverted genius, and he is also a genius with energy, self-discipline, and rules.
Well, Liu Fang couldn't imagine who this person was, she felt that the description was not a person at all.
However, they still need to learn.
What to learn? Qin, chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry, wine and tea, you have to learn everything, and the most embarrassing thing is: serving in bed.
That's right, as concubines in the harem, they need to learn how to sleep.
To be honest, Liu Fang had never been exposed to such a course. She looked at the picture book that was not suitable for children, and then listened to the serious face of the bishop, but the words that made people blush.
Liu Fang's whole body was numb, and she didn't know how to react.
Another half month passed, and among the 300 beautiful girls, only 100 were left.
And they didn't need to enter the palace anymore. The roster was sent to the palace, and the queen looked through it and ordered a few people. I will send it to Emperor Xuan of Jin to have a look. If there is no problem, I will order it directly. If there is a problem, change it, and then make a list and send it directly to the Ministry of Rites. The Ministry of Rites will formulate a decree to set the next position. Emperor Xuan of Jin will look at it again. If there is no problem, he can send the Gong Xuan decree. If there is a problem with the position, then the Emperor Xuan of Jin will set the position, re-draw the decree, and announce the decree.
In this way, this draft is officially over, completely over.
The author has something to say: ①: The **** actually refers to the eunuch. It's not the same as the waiter I said before.
Thank you to the little angel who voted for me or irrigated nutrient solution during 2020-05-2820:10:49~2020-05-2900:19:01~
Thanks to the little angel who threw the mine: 1 crazy girl;
Thank you very much for your support, I will continue to work hard!
☆, 462, The Concubine 5
On the day when the decree was announced, all the beautiful girls gathered in front of the main hall of Lanhuaju, kneeling on the square, listening to the decree read out by the decree of the Ministry of Rites:
The beautiful daughter Chang, Pei canonized as the fourth-grade Zhaoyi, and is the master of the first palace. Chang is entrusted to live in Yuning Palace, and Pei is entrusted to live in Kangning Palace.
After learning the palace rules and etiquette, Liu Fang already knew the names and grades of the various palaces in the palace.
Just like the Yuning Palace, it is a group of palaces in the east of the harem, a fourth-grade palace. As for the Kangning Palace, it is the palace group on the west side of the harem, the palace of the fourth grade.
In the palace city of the Jin Dynasty, it is roughly divided into the former Dynasty, the East Palace, and the Fengxian Palace—that is, the royal ancestral hall, and then the harem, and the harem is divided into the group of palaces belonging to the empress dowager, the longevity palace where the emperor lives, and the palaces of the royal family. The palace complex of the east and west harems where the emperor's concubines lived.
Therefore, the palace city of Jin Dynasty is bigger than any ancient times Liu Fang has experienced, and the palace group is also the largest.
At the same time, the palace here does not say that there is no rule of planting trees at all, except that there are no trees in front of some halls, in fact, the entire palace city is like a huge royal garden, the scenery inside is very beautiful, the pavilions Pavilions, landscapes, flowers and trees are everything.
It is said that this huge palace city is a peerless garden that took a whole hundred years to complete in the previous dynasty. Therefore, in the Jin Dynasty, the royal family did not spend manpower and material resources to rebuild it, and it was possible to live in it with a little repair. Even in order to save money, some gardens outside the palace city are also open to the people to play. Therefore, Miyagi is really not an unfamiliar place to the people of the capital.
Then there is the division of the harem, and it can be seen that, as the emperor of the Jin Dynasty, if he really wants to accept a concubine, it is really easy to divide the power of the court through the harem.
For example, now, the Pei family and the Chang family, one lives in the West Inner Palace and the other in the East Inner Palace, but in the Jin Dynasty, it was always the rule that the inside was the east, and the outside was the Beigui. Separate the two.
But, except for the different locations of the palaces they live in, the two of them have the same status and the same palace rank. That is to say, the following cases are the same.
Such treatment is the same, but the means of high and low are faintly separated. It really makes the two people confront each other all of a sudden, and they can't be united no matter what.
To be honest, the intention of Emperor Xuan of Jin can already be seen from here.
Pei Shi was the daughter of a minister of the Ministry of Officials, a direct descendant, even a
The only girl in the family, she is well spoiled. The Chang family is the daughter of the Marquis of Zhenwei. She was born directly and ranked fourth. She belongs to the family's first daughter/daughter, and she is also favored.
The former is the leading upstart of Qingliu's poor family, and he is also a minister of the humiliation of Emperor Xuan of Jin's hidden residence, while the Marquis of Zhenwei is a noble and famous family.
These two people represent two different forces. In the past, there were no concubines in the emperor's harem, so they were naturally bright, and they had to take care of each other in private and form a delicate balance in order to cope with the monarch on the high seat.
But now, their respective daughters have entered the palace, and they have been divided and opposed by Emperor Xuan of Jin from the beginning. After that, it is naturally impossible for such two forces to be harmonious.
As for how it will develop in the end, that is a matter of the future. Anyway, it seems that Emperor Xuan of Jin needs such an antagonistic relationship.
After the canonization decree of the two people was read out, the canonization decree of the four people was read out:
The beautiful girl Liang's canonized as a congruent ninth-rank beauty, and conferred the seventh-rank palace of Chengxuan Palace, which lived in the East Inner Palace, and Xuan'an Courtyard.
The beautiful girl Liu Shi canonized Xiaoyi of the ninth grade of Shu, and conferred the Hui'an Courtyard, the side hall of Weining Palace, the seventh-grade palace of Xi Nei Palace.
The beautiful girl Liao was canonized as a 10th-grade pick girl, and she was given the title of Ning Anzhai, who lived in the side hall of Yuning Palace in the East Inner Palace.
The beautiful girl Yao Shi was conferred a servant from the tenth grade, and she was conferred to live in Kangpingzhai, the side hall of the Kangning Palace of the West Inner Palace.
Liu Fang listened, and at the same time as Shane was full of black lines.
Does this basically mean they all score factions?
This Jin Xuandi is really enough.
Fortunately, she was not arranged to go to Kang Ning Palace, otherwise, she really would not want to stand in line.
Because the rules of the harem are like this: concubines living in the same palace group, the main concubines, and low-ranking concubines live according to the face of the main concubines, and daily greetings are also necessary.
On the contrary, if you don’t live in the same palace complex, then it’s simple. If there is a main seat, you will respect the main seat. If you don’t, then you don’t need to.
And a low-ranking concubine like Liu Fang is not qualified to greet the queen at all, that is to say, even if she enters the palace, she can live her life in peace.
For the time being anyway.
Liu Fang secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Although he had entered the palace, his situation was not too bad. That's it, I'll talk about it later.
After the decree is made, the other show girls who do not have the title can go home. However, these show girls do not.
It was a waste of time, and the queen then gave them a reward to bring them home, and they could be used as a dowry in the future.
And Liu Fang and the other six, who had positions, naturally got on the carriage and headed for the palace.
From the Royal Courtyard in the suburbs of Beijing, I walked all the way into the capital, and then into the palace. After walking for most of the day, lunch time passed.
After entering the palace, they first went to the Qianyuan Palace where Emperor Xuan of Jin lived, and then went to the Fengqi Palace, where the Queen lived.
The palaces in the palace are divided into super-grade, first-grade, second-grade, third-grade, fourth-grade, fifth-grade, sixth-grade, seventh-grade, a total of eight specifications. If you add the independent Qianyuan Palace, it is nine specifications of the palace. group.
Different grades of palace groups have different sizes, and the specifications of the main halls are also different.
Therefore, it is said that it is a side hall in the palace of the seventh grade. In fact, in Liu Fang's opinion, this palace is not small. The main hall has two entrances in the front and back, and then there are two side halls of the ninth grade and four tenth grade halls. the side hall.
The side hall of the ninth grade and the side hall of the tenth grade have only one entrance. The difference is that the size of the ninth grade is larger: the main room has five rooms with two rooms in the east and west, and three rooms in each of the east and west wing rooms. Each one has a side room, and the other is the reverse room, there are four rooms. As for the tenth-grade specification, the main room is missing two, the east and west side rooms are each missing one, there are only two east and west rooms, there are no back rooms, and there are only two downside rooms.
The Hui'an Courtyard where Liu Fang lives is the first one on the east behind the main hall of Weining Palace.
