In the forty-third year of Wanli (1615), it was expanded from four banners to eight banners. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 The color of the info flag is inlaid with different color edges on the basis of the original four colors, namely: yellow, white, red, blue, yellow, white, red, and blue. Its compilation is three-level: Wuniulu is compiled as a Jiala, Wujiala is compiled as a solid mountain (translated into Chinese as a flag), and each solid mountain is a flag. The official names of the three levels of each banner are Niulu Ezhen, Jiala Ezhen and Gushan Ezhen. There are eight solid mountains, that is, eight flags. Each solid mountain has seven foot knights and five hundred.

After Huang Taiji succeeded to the throne, he successively added the Mongolian Eight Banners and the Han Army Eight Banners, the color is the same as the Manchurian Eight Banners, the system is the same, according to the three-level establishment, a total of 24 flags. The banner owner of the Eight Banners of Manchuria is hereditary, and the Eight Banners of the Mongolian and Han armies are directly appointed by Huang Taiji and can be removed at any time.

The Eight Banners military system has three functions: political, economic, and military, the most important of which is combat readiness. From the entry of the Qing army to the middle of the eighteenth century, with the complete feudalization of the Manchu social economy, the military system of the Eight Banners underwent corresponding changes. After the capital was established in Beijing, the Standing Army System of the Eight Banners was established, which was still organized separately according to ethnic groups. With the Manchurian Eight Banners as the backbone.

After the Qing Dynasty entered Beijing, it mobilized more than two-thirds of the Eight Banners to enter Beijing in order to guard the Beijing Division, which was known as the Eight Banners of the Forbidden Brigade in history. The Eight Banners of the Forbidden Brigade consist of a forward battalion, a firearms battalion, a guard battalion, a pro-soldier battalion, a cavalry battalion, a Shenji battalion, a Jianrui battalion, etc., and the Han army is strictly forbidden to join in the first four battalions. The Eight Banners of the Forbidden Brigade are mainly divided into two categories: "Lang Wei" and "Bing Wei". Lang Wei was mainly responsible for defending the court, and was served by the Zhenghuang, Huang, and Zhengbai flags, and the Qing court selected the elite of the above three banners as the imperial guards. The guards of the Qianqing Gate, Yongzheng Shi expanded the selection range of the guards to the other five banners. The guards are divided into two classes, the guards are the inner class of the Qianqing Gate, the Inner Right Gate, the Shenwu Gate, and the Ningshou Gate, and the outer class of the Su Wei Taihe Gate. The guards were mainly responsible for guarding the gates and palaces of the capital.

The remaining one-third are stationed in more than 90 cities and strongholds across the country, called the "Eight Banners of Garrison," and the principle of garrisoning is to combine key garrisons with centralized mobility, and the Eight Banners of garrisoning are under the command of generals, deputy commanders, and captains of various localities, and are directly under the orders of the emperor. However, this also forced the banner people to leave production labor for a long time and lacked production skills, except for "wearing armor and working on errands" and "relying on food and wages". Except as a tool to maintain the rulers of the Qing Dynasty, most people had nothing to do, and were forced to become "no officials, no farmers, no workers, no merchants, no soldiers, and no people". The Manchu garrison flag men in this predicament of life, some of them are street performers; Some go to pull rickshaws; Some even beg along the streets......

This meaning of solemnity is too much to my liking. Xingzhen opened it and browsed it hastily, and said to the emperor: "Although this matter is a little risky, it is possible, Su Shun is really dedicated to the country, and it is not in vain that the emperor trusts him so much." Lian Lian Chao was promoted, and now he is the Minister of the Interior and the Secretary of the Ministry of Households. ”

The emperor looked at Xingzhen and was slightly surprised, "Queen, you have a lot of energy, you must know that a few days ago, Su Shun also followed me to advise, saying that it was this political affairs of the former dynasty, and the harem women were really not suitable to interfere in it, saying that it was not the image of a benevolent monarch." ”

"He's really bold, but the emperor still has a good temper, isn't it a benevolent monarch? None of this will punish him," Xingzhen put down the explosives bag-like fold. Throw it back to the emperor, as if the fold in his hand was about to explode in the next moment, "Su Shun is also dedicated to the country, but he is also for the country, and I am also for the country, but everyone's position is different, and the things in my heart are different, how can I blame him, he thinks about the ancestral family law, and the concubine just feels sorry for the emperor." Xingzhen wiped the emperor's face with a hot towel. Fortunately, the emperor never blamed the concubines, so the concubines talked in vain for a long time. ”

"Where," the emperor heard Xingzhen's heart, quite moved. Grabbed Xingzhen's soft hand who wiped her face, "Since that Tang poetry trick, Lan'er, do you remember, the future fire attack plan, if it weren't for you, I don't know what the situation in the south would be." The anti-thief inner bar also has your credit. ”

Well, this description in the history books of later generations, that is, the super reactionaries who "stepped on the bloody footprints of the working people step by step", Xingzhen was a little embarrassed.

"What's more, you are in charge of the Sixth Palace, you never be jealous, and treat the concubines equally, this is all your benefit."

The emperor is still chattering, "Now I see you helping me to approve the folds, the approval is excellent, I am very relieved, although there are some troubles at the moment, with your comfort to me, I am also a lot more comfortable, and the spring to report, saying that the rebellion in Jiangning City is about to move, and sent troops to attack the Jiangnan camp several times, but in vain, but now the south is going to be tight again, so I have to let Zeng Guofan march with all his might...... Half of the people in Shandong have become homeless, but unfortunately there is no silver in the treasury, otherwise many people can have a way to live by cashing in for work...... Now I have to do it. ”

Xingzhen came back to her senses, "What the emperor said is very true, let's drink bird's nest porridge and rest." ”

"Hmm."

"The days are a little cold, when is the emperor going to drive back to the palace?"

"I'm impatient, let's celebrate the New Year in the garden this year, it's a little cold in the queen's place, you look at the right place, and then find a sunny place to settle it."

Xingzhen served the emperor with snacks, and said some trivial things about the six palaces, and saw that the emperor was a little tired, so he withdrew, and the emperor didn't stay long, nodding, "Bring the eldest brother tomorrow, I haven't seen you for a few days, but I think about it." ”

"Yes, the concubine retired."

Seeing that the time was still early, Xingzhen came out of Kyushu Qingyan, and looked to the west, wanting to see if he was going to live in the mountains and rivers, or to live in Wuling Chun - these two places are palaces dominated by mountains and forests, and it is not too cold to live in winter, when Xingzhen is stepping on the frank and swinging "Zhiyu Pavilion", the little eunuch Shuangxi ran from Kyushu Qingyan to this side, saw Xingzhen and his party, and hurriedly saluted, Xingzhen asked: "Where is this going in a hurry?" ”

"The emperor summoned Concubine Li to serve in the spring of the heaven and earth family."

"Go quickly, don't make the emperor wait for a long time." Xingzhen didn't show the slightest unhappy expression, and bowed her head to indicate that she knew.

Fan'er was a little indignant on the side, but in the end Xingzhen's eyes stopped, and only after Shuangxi left, Fan'er said: "Niangniang, what kind of good temperament is this!" It's been a long time since the emperor has come to find Niangniang. ”

"What is this, you stupid girl, doesn't the emperor see the palace every day?" Xingzhen deliberately pretended not to know what Fan'er was talking about, and opened her mouth to scold.

Fan'er was not convinced, "Niangniang is pretending to be stupid, what I said is that the emperor hasn't spent the night with Niangniang for a long time." ”

"You little hooves! I want to go crazy, come to me and chew your tongue, what don't you spend the night," Xingzhen was about to fight, and joked again, "I'll see when I will point you a good husband and let you spend the night with him every day!" ”

After all, now Xingzhen is too lazy to think that when she first entered the palace, she had to go to great lengths to dress up and get the emperor's favor, ranking in the middle palace, the biological mother of the eldest brother, the emperor's most intimate private secretary and military advisor, so on, it is difficult not to let Xingzhen's psychology change, and the attitude towards the emperor has also changed from the beginning of caution to the current calm, anyway, it is awkward to be alone with the emperor, and some opportunities to sleep in the past have been cleverly avoided by Xingzhen with excuses, so after a few times, the emperor rarely summons Xingzhen to serve and go to bed. Is the husband and wife enemies?

"I'm not afraid," in the end, there must be a master and a servant, Xingzhen's cheeky fan has also learned a lot, although she still blushes, but she still pouts, "Naturally, I want him to spend the night with me, and I have to make a rule: he has to pour the footwashing water every day, Niangniang, you don't have this blessing, don't envy me!" ”

"That's it, it's not your hoof," Xingzhen laughed wildly, and a large number of carp under her feet were taken away, "Let's go and see, it's serious to choose a good place." ”

"Niangniang can live wherever she wants, who dares to gossip." Fan'er's words revealed the posture of the queen's maid before driving.

"I'm not going to take away the beauty, let's see." Xingzhen and Fan'er disappeared into a cloud of golden osmanthus flowers with fluffy hair like broken gold. (To be continued.) )
