Dayan is a country that attaches great importance to etiquette, he is very strict with etiquette, many people who don't know Dayan etiquette, come to Dayan, if they make some mistakes, they will inexplicably usher in prison, and they deserve it. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Such a big Yan who pays attention to etiquette also has a lot of rules when hundreds of officials go to court.

Some newly appointed officials, at the beginning, have to go to the Ministry of Rites to report, saying that it is a report, in fact, it is to be popularized some things in the court.

Even if there is an advance reminder from the Ministry of Rites, when the newly appointed officials go to court for the first time, they will still make some mistakes. For example, the civil officer walked to the place of the military attaché, and the military attache carried a knife to the place of the civil officer.

In Dayan, the rooster crows as soon as it starts, which is the time to get up and go to bed, and strictly follow the rule of gathering and dispersing in the morning. Because the time of the last dynasty was relatively early, some people joked that this regulation discharged a good play - in "Chicken Crow", the wife urged her husband to get up: "The rooster has crowed, and everyone in the last dynasty has arrived; The east has already lit up, and the last dynasty is already busy. ”

The literati and writers who watched this play were concise and wrote "The rooster is crowing, and the dynasty is prosperous; The East is bright, and the dynasty is prosperous. Verses.

From then on, this period gradually became the hour of the hour (5 to 7 a.m.).

In other rules in the Great Yan, all officials who serve in various organs of the central government must attend the supreme state council presided over by the monarch himself, which is commonly known as the court meeting, so the first procedure for Beijing officials to go to work is "going to the court", also known as "court sen". There will be a distinction between the Great Dynasty and the Constant Dynasty. After the mutual care and integration of the previous generations of Emperor Dayan and Bai Zetianxiang, the system of the previous dynasty gradually became clear.

All state affairs must first consult everyone's opinions at the court meeting, so the hundred officials should "go to the court to discuss current affairs, prepare together in advance, and then hear." In other words, in addition to statutory holidays, this kind of pilgrimage with actual content is held almost every day. If the monarch is sick or neglects his administration, the so-called "from now on the king will not reign early" is an exception.

There are also rules for borrowing light to travel on the road, except for the first and second grade seniors, who can ride horses or sit in chairs and sedan chairs, the rest of the people will walk into the palace; And because the attendants were not allowed to follow, no one gave you a lamp to illuminate. It is said that the meeting will be held at dawn, but if you count the distance from the palace gate to the court hall (the main hall where the meeting is held), plus the whole team of the imperial history and waiting for the page, you have to arrive some time early. Ming Gaoqi's "As early as the darkness before dawn, after entering the palace, tell people how to choose the way."

After Bai Rui's father came to court, he promulgated a rule that there would be no lights in the imperial city, except for the court rooms and the gates, for the reason of eliminating fires. As a result, hundreds of officials "tend to go to court at night, and they all enter in secret, and they encounter without scrutiny".

After such a rule, there was an accident in which someone fell into the river and drowned due to a slippery road when the rainy night was approaching. Of course, this kind of sacrifice at work will never happen to princes and ministers.

All the princes and ministers go to the court, and there are special people who light up the lights and lead them to the two gates of Jingyun and Longzong; Ministers of higher rank have corner lights leading to the inner right door. In addition, the officials of the Recital Office, the Yamen of the ministries and the officials of the provinces, as they sent various documents and reports in advance, which might become the agenda of the Emperor's discussion at the court meetings, were also granted to the lanterns.

The rest of the people will only work hard for themselves. In general, they rushed early, standing outside the Donghua Gate like waiting for the morning train, and saw a light coming from a distance, so they flocked up, and followed suit. I didn't catch up with this trip, so I had to look forward to lying down again.

Originally, such a system was very bad, but Song Weiyan added another layer of bloody smoke to this system that did not light the lamp.

That is, on this road to the pilgrimage, because you can't see the road clearly, a lot of blood happens around you.

Many times, you don't know if the person who is talking to you will be assassinated in the next moment, and the warm blood on his body will spray on your body.

Many people are very cautious when they go to court. The atmosphere didn't dare to make a sound, very cautious and worried.

Today is also the first time Bai Rui came to the court, he is a tanhua, and he has been a champion and a leader with him.

By the way, Bai Rui also has an identity, which is the legendary gentleman.

After being away for so long, there will always be a lot of opportunities and other things.

He walks in the middle, with the champion in front and the leaderboard in the back. Surrounded by a group of officials with their heads bowed and afraid to speak, they walked forward in silence.

The champion wanted to go up and take care of it, and followed a few officials to get close, but they were all refused. It's not a refusal, it's just that they don't care about the champions, huddle together, and look forward to the next light.

The rejected champion, he was a little arrogant, so it was very uncomfortable to be rejected in person, so he had to step forward and pull Bai Rui and Bangyan away.

Bai Rui shook his head, not wanting to follow the champion, he followed some officials to stand together. He doesn't want to show his edge too much, so it will be very difficult to make some small moves against him in the future.

"Follow him. Bai Ze Tianxiang won't make a move on you, you'd better follow, otherwise, maybe, he will hurt you by mistake. A voice came from the crowded crowd into Bai Rui's ears, and after speaking, a hand reached out from the crowd and pushed Bai Rui.

Bai Rui took a few steps to stabilize his body, he looked up and looked around, the officials standing around him were all unusual, curling their necks, waiting for the next light to come.

The champion pulled the list eye and walked to the front, Bai Rui retracted his eyes and walked to the champion and the list eye in front of him.

One after the other, they walked to the main hall of the upper court.

In front of the main hall, there are also people waiting, and those who arrived early are now waiting in all kinds of boredom.

Bai Rui also found a corner to stay, slowly waiting for the beginning of the court. People are coming one after another, and the people who come are standing together with their friends, talking and chatting together.

Eventually, there was a wave among the people, so they all looked at the ladder leading to the main hall.

On the ladder, Song Weiyan was wearing Bai Ze's official uniform and You Yingfa was beside her, wearing court clothes.

They directly skipped the crowd and walked into the main hall, and the other officials followed into the main hall.

The new high school students also plan to go in with them. was stopped by a small eunuch: "Zhuangyuanlang, Tanhualang, Bangyanlang, you haven't been instructed to hold an official position, you can't go in, you can only stay outside and wait until you are summoned inside." (To be continued.) )
