Daming: Ascend to the throne as the emperor, start the game with land gods

Then each of the internal supervisors will hold the measuring instruments to measure the woman's hands and feet. After the measurement, they will walk dozens of steps in a circle to observe their demeanor. Those whose wrists are slightly shorter, the distance is slightly larger, and the behavior is a little irritable. people.

There are only a thousand people left behind, and they are all called into the palace to prepare for the selection of the palace people.

The old man who was sent back to the palace was led to the secret room, where he probed his breasts, sniffed his armpit, and checked his skin texture. Only 300 people were selected, and all of them were considered to be the elders of the palace.

Stay in the palace for one month, familiarize yourself with his temperament and remarks, and comment on his hardness, softness, foolishness, wisdom, and virtue.

In the end, a maximum of 50 people will be selected, and they will be given concubines with Qingsha handkerchiefs, gold and jade jumping off their arms, etc.

This selection of concubines by the imperial court is the first concubine selection after ascension to the throne. From among the fifty concubines, one queen and two noble concubines will be selected.

Of the remaining 950 people staying in the palace, 250 of them can be appointed as "the head of the palace", and 700 can be "selected for the palace".

It can be considered that, in addition to being registered as concubines, the thousand beautiful women who are selected to stay in the harem can also be palace people and "leaders of palace people".

It means that the draft not only selects concubines for the harem, but also includes court ladies and female officials.

Among them, there are many and complicated etiquettes, which make people completely uninterested.

"Choosing a concubine is not only a beauty contest, but how can the concubine be determined in one word? Even if it is a beauty contest, how can the concubine's eyes be exactly the same as the emperor's Lombok?"

Zhang Yan supported her forehead and said helplessly: "Choosing a concubine is a matter of people all over the world, especially officials, working together. How can you ignore the court and the emperor completely?"

The beautiful girl of the country.

Most of them come from military, civilian and official backgrounds, that is, daughters from good families.

The problem can be seen from this background. The beautiful girls with military or official status more or less represent the interests of those who are born.

and so.

Most of the former emperors and empresses of the country came from civil nationality, and she, Zhang Yan, is the representative empress of civil nationality.

However, due to the place of origin, it is not absolute to determine the position of the queen, it mainly depends on the emperor's personal opinion.

"My fault."

Zhu Youjian admitted his fault, and accepted it humbly: "Among the selection of concubines, if there is anything I need to decide, please ask the emperor's sister-in-law to teach me."

"The emperor doesn't have to be like this. It's just a little consideration. It's just that the concubines are inconvenient to make up their minds, so they come to ask the emperor."

Zhang Yan did not accept it and explained.

Cleverly changed the identity of the object of consultation from the emperor to himself.

"First, the queen's background, military, civil and official status, does the emperor have any preference?"

"Civilian registration is the best, military registration is second, and official registration is the last!"

Zhu Youjian pondered.

Guochao people value family values, and after sitting in a high position, it is inevitable that they will help each other out of their hearts.

The queen of civil status, and then helping the family, will only breed relatives who are like nouveau riche.

As long as you want to eradicate, it is easy.

Military queens and official queens can breed behemoths.

If you want to eradicate it, it will even hurt your muscles and bones.

The disaster of foreign relatives.

Avoid as much as possible or avoid.

"The concubine made a note."

Zhang Yan nodded, and continued: "Secondly, among the concubines, the country faces north and south, does the emperor have any preference?"

Nominally, the draft should be held nationwide.

However, due to various subjective and objective reasons, in fact, Guochao's drafts are mostly held in the northern and southern Zhili prefectures, Henan, Shandong, Shanxi, Shaanxi and other prefectures.

Although the two capitals are equally important.

But in the early days of the Kingdom, the concubines in the harem were mainly southern women.

After Emperor Xiaozong, most of the concubines in the harem were women from the north.

And after Emperor Wanli.

In order to reduce the cost of concubine selection, and for special reasons, Emperor Taichang and Emperor Tianqi basically restricted the selection of ladies inside and outside the capital and eight prefectures.

just now.

The national treasury is full and can support the selection of concubines across the country. This matter involves many considerations of the court, and it will inevitably be mentioned again.

"The selection of concubines should focus on virtue and behavior, and the balance between south and north is the best!"

1 Sixty Chapters

South.

or north.

They are all as beautiful as flowers.

It's just that each has its own merits.

Zhu Youjian has no preference.

As for those open and secret struggles involving the north and south, I am not interested.

Balanced.

It is better to keep the harem stable and not interfere in the government affairs.

"The concubine can save it!"

Zhang Yan nodded, and did not make any additional suggestions because she was the Queen of the North.

Keep the emperor's answer in mind.

"Third, do you want to favor some beautiful women with special identities?"

"What special status?"

"The daughter of an important official in the court, the daughter of a general in the military!"

"Which important ministers and daughters of generals will participate in the selection of concubines?"

"Shuyan, the daughter of He Zongyan, the minister of the cabinet, Yihan, the daughter of Cai Fu, the secretary of the official department, Yuran, the daughter of Li Changgeng, the minister of the Ministry of punishment, in the court, in addition to the daughters of the above important ministers, there are five daughters of the twelve ministers in the six departments. It's a show girl."

Zhang Yan was like a few treasures, and said eloquently: "Nan Qiao, the daughter of Generalissimo Sun Chengzong of the Northern Expedition, Siman, the daughter of Mangui, the military governor of Liaodong, Yunya, the daughter of Dashou, the chief soldier of Ji and Liao, and Yimei, the daughter of Yuan Chonghuan who is at home. , and the daughters of a group of generals, were selected for this show."

It's staggering.

Important ministers, generals, both military and government, spared no effort to transport their daughters to the palace.

its heart.

It's hard to guarantee that he didn't read it.

"Treat them equally."

Zhu Youjian frowned and said in a deep voice.

Needless to say.

These "noble girls" participated in the selection of concubines, and they came here for the position of queen.

It seems.

The identity of this foreign relative is really tempting.

"Is it the same as ordinary beautiful girls, or is it the same as "noble girls"?"

"The five thousand beautiful women are all treated equally, and are selected based on virtue, beauty, etc."

"The concubine understands."

Zhang Yan breathed a sigh of relief and said seriously.

to be frank.

I'm really afraid that the emperor will engage in checks and balances.

Selecting the daughter of an important minister and general into the palace as a concubine, in this way, it is not only suffering for myself, but also harming that "noble daughter".

From ancient times to the present.

No emperor has ever loved a "noble daughter" from the bottom of his heart, because there are too many interests involved.

Emotions full of interests, no matter how much the two like each other, they are destined not to be able to feel happiness.

If the "noble ladies" can really rely on themselves to choose to enter the palace as concubines, it will be a blessing or a curse, which is hard to know.

Anyway.

Fairness shall prevail.

"The concubine has no questions to ask, it's time to leave!"

Zhang Yan got up, and after saluting, she spoke.

Three "tendencies" to resolve.

The matter of choosing a concubine is simple.

"Sister-in-law, are you leaving like this?"

Seeing this, Zhu Youjian was stunned.

This is not quite as expected.

"Emperor, what do you think the concubine has to do?"

"Then Wei Zhong..."

"Concubines are women in the harem and have no right to interfere with court affairs. Even though Wei Zhong, Yuhuatian, Cao Zhengchun, and Shen Lian belong to the royal family and slaves, their life and death are still not part of the affairs of the harem, and concubines have no right to do so. put one's oar in."

Zhang Yan smiled sweetly and said flatly.

Request for an audience with Elder He Ge.

Completely ignored.

The life and death of Wei Zhong, Cao Zhengchun, Yuhuatian and Shen Lian were even less concerned.

Guo Dynasty.

Nothing is missing.

There is no shortage of officials.

Maybe ability.

The promoted new officials cannot achieve perfection immediately, but after proficiency, many tasks can be handled with ease.

All officials.

It's all here.

Wei Zhong.

He didn't take the position of supervisor of ceremonies and pens in one day, and then he was in power during the reign of the first emperor.

Yuhuatian and Cao Zhengchun did not become governors of the West Factory and East Factory in a day.

Not even Shen Lian.

ability.

It can be exercised.

Moreover.

None of these four people can be considered a good person, life and death, that's all.

"It's just that I misunderstood."

Hearing this, Zhu Youjian laughed dumbly.

Just a matter.

I really thought too much.
