1668 Lady Yipinhu
Madam, this is a kind of honorific title for women, in the Qing Dynasty, the wife of the general landlord's family, people can also be called Mrs., including the wife of the lowest level of scholar Xiucai, can also be called Mrs. Xiucai. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Madame is like a Westerner who is called Ms. So-and-so, which is an honorific.
But in ancient times, Madame was definitely not something anyone could call her, because Madam was a kind of job title for a female official in the Zhou ceremony.
According to the records of Zhou Li, the Son of Heaven set up a queen, three wives, nine concubines, and so on...... It can be seen that the position of lady is second only to the queen.
Zhou Li is the origin of Chinese etiquette in the past dynasties, and later in the Han, Tang, Song and Ming dynasties, there were many modifications to the etiquette, and many titles were changed, but the overall context still originated from Zhou Li.
Including the late Qing Dynasty, although the wife of a scholar or the daughter-in-law of a wealthy person can be honored by the common people as Mrs. so-and-so, but this honorific title cannot be implemented in words.
That is to say, once a famous woman has to leave her name in the history books, or carve a tombstone after death, and posterity will make a biography, etc...... They didn't dare to write the word lady scribble, because it required the canonization of the imperial court.
This is an honor, the first rank of Mrs. Fate, the second rank of Mrs. Fate, the third, fourth, and fifth grades...... Only such a lady officially recognized by the imperial court could be written in a history book or epitaph.
This is the case in the late Qing Dynasty, and the Japanese etiquette system was completely brought from China during the Tang Dynasty, and at that time the Japanese respected the Zhou rites very much, and the etiquette system of the Central Plains has undergone a lot of changes in the past thousand years, but only here in Japan has completely preserved the etiquette system of the Tang Dynasty and even the Tang Dynasty like a fossil.
Japan's court customs and etiquette system are very close to those of the Han scholars and scholars during the Jin Dynasty and the Northern and Southern Dynasties, and some people may ask whether Japan absorbed a large amount of Central Plains culture and brought it back by Tang envoys? It is said that it should be closer to that of the Tang Dynasty.
This layer of window paper is actually very simple, because the Japanese and the Han people of the Central Plains, including other ethnic groups, have a common characteristic, that is, the worship of the ancients.
Yes, human beings have a very unique idea of antiquity, the ancient Greek era people still worshipped Atlantis and the age of the gods, and the Roman Empire had a strong obsession with Greek civilization.
The ancient Egyptian civilization has long since died out, but it does not prevent future generations from fantasizing and eulogizing!
The same is true for the Chinese, the Tang Dynasty was very powerful, but the literati still had the idea of reverence for the ancients, and in their hearts the saints of the ancient times were always perfect, but the ancient times were too far away, and people did not know how those people lived.
Then you can only retreat to the next best and choose the most familiar ancestors, that is, the period of the two Jin and Northern and Southern Dynasties, the Tang people are very worshipful of the culture of that era, Wang Xizhi's words, the wildness of the Seven Sages of the Bamboo Forest, and even the open relationship between men and women in the Tang Dynasty are also related to the legacy of that era.
The Tang people admired the culture of the two Jin Dynasty, but what about the primary school students of the Tang Dynasty, Japan, was naturally more fanatical worship, and this is the fundamental reason why Japan retained a lot of fragments of the culture of the two Jin Dynasty.
At this time, ordinary Japanese citizens were not even qualified to have a surname, and it was normal for grandsons not to know their grandfather's name, and clan relations were limited to those civil officials and samurai daimyos.
Not to mention that the emperor has declined, no matter how powerful the Tokugawa shogunate is, no matter how powerful the shogun is, there is one thing he cannot take away, that is, the emperor and the public secretary class led by him have the right to interpret and grant ceremonial laws and official positions.
This was the inalienable power of the emperor and his subordinates, and the samurai had not been able to touch it for thousands of years.
In the hearts of the people of the late Qing Dynasty, the title of Mrs. Tiger may be very commonplace, but once the title of Mrs. Tiger in Fuso Japan is given, the value of the tiger girl suddenly rises thousands of times.
Lady Ichipinto, whose official position is approaching that of the shogun, can get the highest courtesy in any daimyo country in Japan.
To give a simple example, Matsudaira Yoho, the lord of the Aizu domain, was a very trusted minister of the Tokugawa shogunate, and he held the position of guardian of Kyoto, but Matsudaira Yoho's official position was only a Higo Mori.
In Japan, Higo Mamoru is just an official position under the five grades, and there is a difference of 108,000 miles from the first rank of the tiger girl, which means that if Mrs. Tiger wants to go to Matsudaira Rongbo's territory to enjoy the cherry blossoms, then Matsudaira Rongbo will go out of the city to greet him, and respectfully give up the chairmanship to Mrs.
Even the right of residence in the castle tower has to be given to the Tiger Lady of the first rank, this is the etiquette, this is the hierarchy.
Xiao Lotian scratched his head and couldn't understand what was wrong with this, but one thing he knew very well was that the key node of this matter must be in his son, and it was the birth of this little thing that triggered a very subtle change in the situation.
"Prime Minister, since Ryoma-sama Sakamoto was condemned by you and was unable to return to Fuso, Sakamoto-sama's deputy, another of your disciples, Hirobumi Ito, took over the work of the Fuso branch of the CIA......"
Hiss...... Xiao Lotian gasped, he seemed to faintly touch a clue, a clue that was hidden deeply.
In fact, the root cause of the abnormal situation in Fuso began with the deception before the Great War, that is, the ploy that Sakamoto Ryoma was condemned and used to deceive the British and French intelligence officers.
Very deep and deep chain strategy, Sakamoto Ryoma is the most important part of the plan, when the sword drawing camp of Noheita and Hyotaro had a camp roar, Sakamoto Ryoma had to take the blame and resign, and he and Xiao Lotian were noisy and everyone knew it.
In the end, Xiao Lotian dismissed all of Sakamoto Ryoma's positions in a fit of anger and assigned them to Hong Kong, including the position of head of the CIA branch in Fuso.
Everyone knows what happened later, this is actually the smoke bomb released by Xiao Letian, and Sakamoto Ryoma was just beaten by Huang Gai.
In Hong Kong, Ryoma-kun released information about the gold, and succeeded in arousing the greed of the Tsarist Russia, causing them to rush headlong into the vault trap of Amami Oshima.
If Ryoma-kun followed Xiao Letian's script, the rest of the matter would not have happened, if he honestly only confessed the golden information, and then returned to the Ryukyus, he would naturally be reinstated and even rewarded.
It's a pity that the stubborn and perverted genes of the Japanese nation have influenced Sakamoto Ryoma, and this guy actually added drama on the spot! It's not enough to release golden information, but to release information about the Bailayitun Reclamation Area.
In order to calm the anger within the Chinese family, Xiao Lotian could only forcibly ask Sakamoto Ryoma to become a monk, which was the only way to save his life.
The high-ranking official Sakamoto Ryoma disappeared, and there was one more senior monk in the world, and the great monk could only be a staff member and not an official, coupled with the urgency of the war, Xiao Letian focused all his energy on the big war, which caused a very serious problem.
Hirobumi Ito of the CIA branch of Fuso suddenly lived with great power in a short period of time, and he was like a butterfly that flipped the Pacific hurricane, quietly shaking his wings.
