The first team of palace maids is from the direction of the house to go inside, the central axis is the main building on the house, called the middle road, the quality of the middle road building is quite good, not only strong, but also very beautiful, splendid. There is a flower wall on each side of the middle road building, and the snow-white wall has a round, square or fan-shaped hollow decoration every few steps. The flower walls are high and covered with dark glazed tiles. The middle road building is the core of the palace, and the first gate belongs to the gate of the palace, called the Yimen. The east and west unfold, sit north and face south, the main room is seven, the ear room on both sides is three, and the east and west wing rooms are five rooms each, the southernmost side is a huge nine-dragon relief shadow wall, blocking the sight of the door to see directly, but can not block the towering roof of the Xiaoyao Hall that is high behind the shadow wall. Entering from the porch in the middle of the instrument gate is the core building of the house, the Xiaoyao Palace. The meritorious Rui Wang Ye once used his body to block an assassin's poisonous arrow for Emperor Shunzhi, and since then his left arm is sore, and it is difficult to even lift it, so he is not suitable for the battlefield. It is said to be recuperating from injuries, but in fact, it is to go home to care for the elderly. has already had the great merit of rescuing Emperor Taizong and Emperor Taiji, and then there is the second rescue of the current saint, and there are so many military exploits in peacetime, and then let him play with his life on the battlefield Emperor Shunzhi also feels that he is too unkind. Prince Rui, who came down from the battlefield, left the disputes in the court far away, planted vegetables, raised flowers, and practiced martial arts in the house, and became a free prince, accompanying the two beautiful ladies to live a leisurely life, which was also comfortable.

The Hall of Freedom is imposing, sitting north and facing south, on a nine-foot-high platform in the middle of a huge square. The platform is a blue and white stone base, divided into three layers, each of which is surrounded by a white marble railing. It is nine rooms wide and four rooms deep, and the eaves corridor is supported by ten two-foot thick red lacquer columns. The upper roof is the highest level of glazed tile heavy eaves resting on the top of the mountain, and the corners of the four vertical ridges are each decorated with seven glazed beasts. This is the most magnificent building of the Rui Wangfu.

Behind the hall is a one-zhang high red wall, separating the buildings behind it. On each side there are three small ear rooms with a single eaves yellow glazed tile roof, which are small and exquisite, very chic, and here are the left and right passages leading to the backyard. In front of the Xiaoyao Hall is a large square, paved with blue bricks, flat and wide. On the left and right sides of the square, there is a long row of red, glazed tile-roofed houses, which are the residences of the people who clean the highness. Not everyone can come in casually, and the palace maids who know the rules only look outside and go through the ear room and come to the temple in the house.

The temple is located in a courtyard, much smaller than the Xiaoyao Palace, but much higher, two floors. Just because it is a temple, no matter how high the emperor's status is, there is no god high. Here is enshrined in the Buddha world Rulai, which is neither Shakyamuni Buddha nor Amitabha Buddha, but an extremely beautiful woman. Her Buddha world is called the Holy Buddha Kingdom, and it belongs to the secret refining method. Standing beside her were two white-clothed Bodhisattvas: Ganlin Bodhisattva and Qinglu Bodhisattva. The appearance of the holy Buddha is not the kind of mud that is coated with gold dust on the outside, but a Buddha statue carved from pure white jade. The Buddha seal sits on a seven-colored lotus seat. The Ganlin Bodhisattva beside her held a crystal box with an emerald green leaf inside. In the hand of Qinglu Bodhisattva is a long-body, thin-necked white jade porcelain vase that is very similar to Guanyin Bodhisattva, but it is not a willow branch, but a lotus flower.

There are also 36 golden-bodied Arhats enshrined on both sides of the main hall.

The cigarette smoke here is misty, and since the prince began to worship the gods he believes, he has never broken the sandalwood.

The temple is also as majestic and splendid as the Xiaoyao Palace. In addition to the holy Nyorai, the two bodhisattvas, and the 36 arhats, there are also 18 monks who chant and clean the temple here every day. These monks are all real monks, and the same as the prince, Fu Jin, and side Fu Jin, are the pious disciples of the holy female Buddhist master, and there are also murals and Buddhist flags with superb painting skills in the hall......

Outside the hall is a square courtyard, in addition to the two sides of the main hall there are blue bricks and red tiles of monk's room, and receive the palace into the incense, worship the Buddha of the prince, the inverted gatehouse of Fujin, there is no corridor, only two rows of green pines and cypresses stand on both sides of the main entrance leading to the main hall. There is a locust tree and a well behind him.

Naturally, it is not casual to enter here, and laypeople who do not believe in holiness and holiness cannot enter the courtyard no matter what their status is, including the emperor.

Behind the shrine is the family temple, a five-room temple located on a three-foot-high base of blue and white stone. It is also a courtyard house, which is very simple, and the ancestors of the prince are enshrined in it. There are also specialized people here who clean and manage, basically old servants and single middle-aged men.

Further north is the dormitory of the prince and his concubine Fu Jin Tong, which is called "Yiran Hug". It is a courtyard with three entrances, the first courtyard enters, there are servants' houses of blue bricks and red tiles on all sides, and there are eunuchs and maids, and mothers-in-law live on two steps to go up to a circle of corridors, and there are seats in the corridors, where you can sit and do needlework. This courtyard is about 100 feet square, and due north is a porch passageway, and after entering it is the bedroom of the prince Fujin and the prince. Almost all the palaces of the prince and Fujin are one-story buildings, and only the bedroom of the prince of Rui is two floors. Above the door of the second floor is the large character of the face body of the Emperor Shunzhi who wrote the imperial inscription "Yiran Hug". Because the prince rescued the car twice, he had the grace of the two generations of monarchs, so this dormitory was magnificent, and it was even more magnificent than the Cining Palace where the Queen Mother lived. This is not a place where the maids can go in and visit casually, and everyone's footsteps continue to move north, of course, it is unknown who has what is in mind.

On the north side of the wall behind the Yiran Building, there is a patio-style building surrounded by two-story buildings, which is the residence of the Fujin Chen family on the side of the prince. Entering from the south gate, there is a very spacious courtyard inside. On the north side of the courtyard is a very similar building - below is a trapezoidal stone building about seven or eight feet high, and above the tower is a platform, along which a courtyard is built. On both sides of the staircase base, there is a section of steps to go up, and the pillars are installed on both sides of the steps, and the top of the pillars is dark green glazed tiles, which are used as rain shelters. At the top of the stairs are two side doors, east and west, and when you enter the side door, there is a circle of cloisters. On the north side of the courtyard is a palace on the top of the mountain, on the glazed tile roof of the heavy eaves mountain, there are six beaked beasts in each of the eaves corners of the four vertical ridges; All doors, windows, and partition doors are carved from rosewood. The intricate buckets and gorgeous colorful paintings are splendid. Because there is only one floor, and the east-west direction is not as long as the wings, it looks small and exquisite. On both sides of this dormitory, five rooms of blue bricks and red tiles were connected to the left and right. The wings on both sides continue the ten houses to the south, and then connect with the inverted houses in front. The building below is very large, and the courtyard above is also very large, and there is not much decoration in the courtyard, only a few begonias and lilacs. This yard is quite compact and safe.

In fact, this building and the courtyard above the building have always been one, it is the bedroom of a prince of the former Ming Dynasty, and it belongs to the building of the courtyard. The two-story buildings that form the courtyard pattern are all for single guards, personal soldiers, and small servants, and they are still mostly empty.

Many people see the residence of the prince and the side of Fujin and say that this is not like the living place of the prince, which is a bit nondescript. To the eyes of a modern person, it looks like an ancient castle.

The inside of the balcony is empty, and here is the small stage of the Ming Dynasty prince. The two-storey building also has a platform in the east, south and west directions, which can be used as a box for watching the play.

The plaque of the main building is also the style of blue background mud gold, and the three big characters of "Feiyun Building" are written on it, which is the inscription of Mr. Chen Jing, the father of Chen Ruiyun on the side of the prince, and the editor of the Hanlin Academy.

On both sides of the building on the middle road are a row of 12 sets of Suzhou residential-style houses in the east and west, each set of a style, the main house is two floors, five rooms up and down, seven rooms in each of the east and west rows of the wing room, and the inverted house as a gatehouse, which is naturally also seven. These twelve sets of Suzhou mansions were prepared by the emperor for the future concubines and children of the imperial brother. The emperor and the prince are half-brothers, and the prince's heirs are thin, and when the situation in the country is stable, the royal brother must be assigned to marry the daughters of several high-ranking ministers as side rooms and concubines, so that the royal brothers' heirs can prosper and flourish.

Behind the Suzhou Mansion, there are 16 sets of Beijing residential courtyards connected together, which are much smaller than the Suzhou Mansion, and the length is the same as the Middle Road Building and the Suzhou Mansion, so that the pattern of the inner house is a regular rectangle. The Great Wall Treasury served as a natural barrier to protect the Inner Mansion from the threat of surprise attacks from outside.

The strange thing about the palace maids and maids is that there is a long high wall on both sides of the back of the courtyard building of Feiyun Tower, which does not look like a house for living in, nor does it look like a garden that many people say. Anyway, this palace belongs to the prince, and it is not his own. Or go to the legendary palace garden. After walking for so long, my ankle bones hurt.

There are pro-soldiers to open the red paint and yellow nail gate, outside is a big square, leading the grandmother to say that this is the place where the prince and the pro-soldier train. Opposite the square is a large archway, on which there are three big characters of "Baihui Garden". When I came to the gate of Baihui Garden, I was disappointed and went home: not to mention Baihui here, there is not even a flower, even the trees are sparse, and there are cut down stumps where they are crooked and grinning. There are also very few beautiful scenery, only a small pagoda in the northwest and the white marble railing "Lotus Pavilion" inserted into the lotus pond are barely a view.

The palace maids and girls returned to the place where they practiced martial arts, and led the grandmother to have something to say. When standing in line, a palace maid saw a two-story building standing on the east side of Baihui Garden, and she could see the three words "Awakening Wulu" written on the plaque from afar. A curious palace maid couldn't help but ask the leading grandmother: "Grandma Shen, what is the building in the east for?" ”

Mama Shen's face was full of disdain: "It's still so ignorant from the palace, you can recognize the words on it, right?" Awakening is a place of introspection, in other words, a place to punish subordinates. ”

"Huh?!" All the palace maids were shocked, so high, didn't they use it to hang people up? Didn't you say that the prince of Ruiwangfu was a monk who had been a monk?

"What is all the fuss about? You can't die even if you're locked inside, and you'll be starved for two days at most. ”

The palace ladies were in a very worried mood.

"Alright, you should go back to your lodgings and put your luggage and things with you, don't leave before dinner, the chief steward is assigning errands to you, and each of you has received your own errand, and you will officially go on a business tomorrow." You can rest assured, no matter what you do, as long as you do it well, you will continue to do it smoothly. Fu Jin said that if you want to go home, you will report your name to me within three days, and the prince Fu Jin who does not want to go home will do his best to find suitable young men for the older of you. ”

A bold palace maid raised her hand and said, "Mama Shen, the slave maid boldly asked, how can there be a man of our age in the house?" ”

The palace maid next to her shaved her face and shamed the palace maid: "No shame, no shame, I'm in a hurry to find my mother-in-law!" ”

"Good question", Mama Shen praised: "Do you know how blessed you are to come to the house?" Our prince was a monk since he was a child, and he learned kung fu in Shaolin Temple for ten years, and when he came down from the battlefield, the emperor asked him to train some good health soldiers, and train a batch of 180 people every three years. After leaving the palace, you can enter the Forbidden City as a royal guard, or you may go to the barracks as a small officer, the lowest is the seventh grade, these people are all protégés and disciples of the prince. They enter the palace every year, and some leave the palace every year, how good opportunities do you think you have? Can you become a husband and wife with someone with a bright future? Let me tell you, the soldiers in the house are not the family members of other houses, and few of them are from the market, they are all children of families with family backgrounds...... That's too much, let's line up and go back. ”

Mama Shen's words gave these palace maids a beautiful dream! When serving the concubines in the palace, few people want to turn a sparrow into a phoenix, because it is very difficult, the three thousand palace maids in the Forbidden City, and many concubines who have already ascended the throne, can be seen and favored by the emperor's blue eyes are almost rare. Everyone wants to survive until ten years in peace, and then go home to find a lover to marry, as if they are living in a place where people eat people and don't see bones. I didn't expect that there would be such an opportunity today, the master will match a strong and promising husband!
