Before moving into the Forbidden City, Zhao Han received news about the Manchu Qing Dynasty.

The intelligence is a little sluggish, and it is already old news half a year ago.

In April of this year, the Beishan savages gathered a crowd to the south, directly killed the Sauron tribe, and even ran to the Sakha Lian tribe to plunder. The Manchus sent cavalry to pursue, but only touched the tail, and finally had to use 2,000 cavalry to go deep into the Beishan area to sweep.

Beishan is the outer Xing'an Mountains.

The Beishan savage is a general term, specifically referring to the indigenous people who live in the Trans-Khingan Mountains, Eastern Siberia, and Kamchatka coasts. They had very strange deer cavalry, or rather, infantry marching on deer.

The Sauron tribe refers to the indigenous people of Heilongjiang in general, especially the Dahaner people, Oroqen people, and Evenki people.

The Sauron tribe belonged to the Eight Banners of Cattle Hunting, which was a tribe dedicated to the Manchu Qing Dynasty to collect Eastern Pearls and hunt furs. When the Manchu Qing Dynasty lacked bannermen, they would also ask Sauron's troops to sacrifice warriors, and the population became smaller and smaller.

Now that the Manchu Qing Dynasty is tired, even the savages of the North Mountain know about it, and they actually took the opportunity to rob the Sauron Department.

Although Dorgon sent 2,000 cavalry, he ran to the North Mountain to help Sauron's troops recover the field. But for the Saurons...... Why don't you come!

The Outer Khing'an Mountains were too far away, and the Manchurian cavalry could bring very little food, and the military rations had to be provided with the help of the Sauron Department. The Sauron Division, which had already been robbed, had to raise food for the Manchurian cavalry, and the loot they snatched back had nothing to do with them.

The Sauron tribe was first plundered by the Beishan savages, and then extorted by the Manchurian cavalry.

The tribes of the Sauron tribe, who dared to be angry and did not dare to speak, successively sent two envoys to Gaizhou to secretly take refuge. They asked the Datong army to attack the Manchus as soon as possible, and the Sauron army would also take the opportunity to raise troops.

The ethnic groups in the Northeast have suffered for a long time.

If there was no Datong Army, they could only endure in silence, after all, they had been suppressed countless times. Now that the Datong army is in southern Liaoning, they once again have a trace of courage to resist.

Winter.

Zhao Han sat in the imperial chariot, took the harem and the inner and outer courts, and moved to the Forbidden City together with several sets of teams.

The southernmost city gate was changed from "Daming Gate" to "Datong Gate".

It's very simple to turn the plaque over and re-engrave it on the back, which can also save a piece of good wood for the plaque.

This practice is normal, Yuan Shikai became the president of the Republic of China, and felt that the "Great Qing Gate" was very inappropriate. Let the craftsman take off the plaque and engrave "Zhonghua Gate" on the back. The craftsman turned the plaque over and took a look, good guy, there are already words on the back, and the words "Daming Gate" are engraved on it.

After entering the Datong Gate, there is an urn city in the shape of a man's tintin.

The ministries and departments of the center of the imperial court worked on both sides of Ding Ding. Officials cannot directly enter the Ding Ding Urn City from the Datong Gate, because the Urn City already belongs to the Imperial Road.

The root of Ding Ding is "Chengtianmen", and the name has not changed, because after the end gate, the noon gate, there is also a "Fengtian gate".

Fengtianmen was changed to Yingmin Gate.

When the two doors are combined, it is "inheriting the heavens and responding to the people".

On both sides of the royal road from Chengtianmen to Wumen, there is the Sheji Altar in the west, and the Imperial Temple was also built. To the east is the Taimiao, Zhao Han added the martyr's temple, and the martyr who died guarded the Taimiao, and accepted the incense offering together with the Taimiao.

On the south side of Shejitan and Taimiao, there are two large gardens.

Today, there is a primary school in one garden and a secondary school in one garden. This is a school within the imperial city, and officials from all ministries are not allowed to enter, but students who accompany the prince to study can enter.

Inside the noon gate, it is the real Forbidden City.

In the center of the Forbidden City are three major halls, with civil and military towers on both sides. On both sides of the outside, is the Wenhua Palace, Wuying Hall and other palaces, the cabinet ministers and the scholars work here.

The palace pavilion is to the north, and there are east and west palaces respectively.

These buildings were further north, enclosed by walls, where the emperor's harem was.

The area of the harem is about one-third of the entire Forbidden City, less than one-tenth of the entire Imperial City.

So now I understand, why do you want to recruit so many female officials and palace maids?

Within the imperial city, there was an inner court, and there were many institutional yamen. In the past, eunuchs and palace maids were in charge, and in the future, female officials and palace maids are in charge. Most of them, even if they stay and refuse to leave, they will work in the imperial city for a lifetime, and they may not enter the Forbidden City once, and they may not even see the emperor's face.

Most of the female officials and palace maids in the imperial city are pure hired workers, and they only have a different address from working in the private sector. When the five-year contract expires and he is not promoted, he will take his salary and leave, and go back to the people to find a good man to marry.

The current manpower is actually not enough, and the total number of female officials and palace maids should be more than 3,000.

If Zhao Han's descendants learn from Daming to make some elephant houses and leopard houses, then the number of employees in the imperial city will continue to increase. For example, the elephant house employees are a group of animal breeders, including lions, tigers, elephants, giraffes, and everything, which was originally brought back by Zheng He from the West.

The hundred officials followed the emperor and the concubine and entered through the Datong Gate together.

There are not many such opportunities, and only when encountering large-scale activities, such as sacrificing heaven and earth, can officials have the privilege of entering and leaving Datongmen. Usually, even if you go to the court, you have to go around in a big circle, and you have to make a big circle, which increases the majesty and mystery of the imperial city from the psychological level.

All the way through the Wumen Gate and Yingmin Gate (Fengtian Gate), you will come to the square where film and television dramas often appear.

Usually in the early court, hundreds of officials are lined up here, waiting for the time of the court, and then divided into two classes of civil and military to enter the Fengtian Palace.

"Fengtian Temple" was changed to "Jingtian Temple", and its function has not changed, it is used to hold court meetings or hold major gatherings.

"Huagai Palace" was changed to "Zhimin Palace", and the emperor reviewed the chapters here - the emperors of the Ming and Qing dynasties liked to work in the Qianqing Palace, and only read the sacrificial related chapters in the Huagai Palace. In addition, this is the place where the emperor rested and took a nap before going to court.

After the two halls were renamed, they seemed to have changed all of a sudden, but people who read all over the world must know their origins.

It's all from "Shangshu"!

"Heaven is not credible, I only Ning Wang Deyan, and heaven is not relieved by King Wen's order."

God's favor cannot be relied on, and only by continuing to promote King Wen's benevolent government, Heaven will not withdraw the mandate of heaven that descended on King Wen.

"Strict respect, the destiny of heaven, the people are only afraid, and they dare not be desolate."

Be obedient and respectful, govern the people with the mandate of heaven as the criterion, be conscientious, and dare not waste it, so as to continue the national ancestry.

Changed to "Respect the Heaven Palace" and "Governing the People Palace", it is the meaning of "respecting the heavens and protecting the people" conveyed by the "Book of Shang".

That is: as an emperor or an official, don't feel that the Datong court has the destiny of heaven. Heaven is unpredictable, the destiny of heaven is impermanent, we should be in awe of God, but also to the people of benevolence, we must conscientiously govern the country, in order to always receive the favor of the mandate of heaven, in order to always maintain the peace of the country.

Respect for heaven, Fengtian, the difference between one word, the connotation is very different.

The three major halls of the body hall, Zhao Han did not change the name. This is the place where the emperor changes his court clothes, and it is also the place where the empress and the crown prince are ordained, and it is also the temporary resting place of the emperor.

Zhao Han took his family straight to the harem, and the female officials and palace maids also went to their respective places. As for the officials, they were taken on a tour of the site and then left from the Tung Wah Gate.

"Father, this place is so big!" Zhao Kuanghuan followed Zhao Han's side, his eyes rolling around.

Zhao Han said with a smile: "Starting next summer, you and your younger siblings will be studying in the school in the Imperial City. Prodigies from all over the world will be your classmates. Even if you can't compare to those prodigies, you must not be discouraged. Because those prodigies are your future subjects. The better they are, the more talent you'll have available. ”

"Oh." Zhao Kuanghuan didn't care too much, he felt that he was very smart, and he would definitely not lose to the so-called prodigy.

When the concubines moved to the Forbidden City, they immediately felt what a harem was.

The emperor had his own Qianqing Palace, and the Empress had his own Kunning Palace. The combined area of these two palaces directly accounts for a quarter of all the sleeping palaces, and the status of the queen is very obvious.

The concubine took the prince and the princess to their own residence.

Zhao Han stayed in the Qianqing Palace to familiarize himself with the environment, and Li Xiangjun asked: "Your Majesty, in the future, will you review the chapters, will it be in the Qianqing Palace or the Zhimin Hall (Huagai Palace)?" ”

"The Palace of the Rulers." Zhao Han didn't want to treat the dormitory as an office, so he walked out for a few minutes anyway.

You don't have to take a car, you can just take a walk, and you can move your body.

There are not many concubines today, and there are no concubines. At noon, Zhao Han called the concubine and her children and ran to the inner garden on the west side of the concubine's dormitory, eating to fill her stomach while enjoying the scenery of this garden.

They are all southern garden buildings, pavilions, small bridges and flowing water, no matter which concubine can come to play.

As for the Great Shan Hall in the Nanjing Imperial Palace in the Ming Dynasty, it originally belonged to the royal Buddha worship place. But I'm sorry, Zhao Han worships the Buddha, but he doesn't believe in the Buddha, and it was converted into a royal library.

The library of the Mandarin Hall can be browsed by officials. The library here is only accessible to the royal family, and by the way, it collects the emperor's favorite rare things.

Fei Rulan ate and said with a smile: "If you are free in the afternoon, it is better to go to the outer garden together." Everyone is walking around, don't move in, but only in the harem. ”

"Good idea." Zhao Han immediately applauded.

The outer garden is outside the Forbidden City and inside the Imperial City.

That area of land was encroached upon by many dwellings due to the collapse of the city wall. During the rebuilding of the Imperial City of Nanjing, some illegal houses were cleaned up, and land was allocated for them to build houses on the edge of Xuanwu Lake. But there were also many illegal houses, and Zhao Han ordered not to disturb them, so he directly reduced the area of the imperial city.

The people who were not forcibly moved away now often sigh with emotion, and when they meet people, they say: "Your Majesty is benevolent and righteous, protecting the people's homes and shrinking the imperial city, I have never seen such a holy monarch since ancient times." ”

In the afternoon, after a tour of the outer garden, Zhao Han climbed the tower of the imperial city, looked at the rows of shops and private houses outside, and looked back at the palaces in the imperial city, and finally felt another taste of imperial power.

Lonely and lonely, the height is unbearable.

Here is the condensation of the emperor's majesty, and it is also the cage where the emperor is imprisoned.

As the founding emperor, he must go out if he wants to. But the future emperor may not be able to run around casually, at most go hunting in the Purple Mountain, or go out of the city to worship heaven and earth.

Once you run far, it will definitely cost the people and money, and there is also danger, and the civil officials will try their best to dissuade it.
