Chapter 54 Early Dynasty (1)

"The silver candle is facing the sky and the purple road is long, and the spring scenery of the forbidden city is vast and beautiful. Thousands of weak willows are hanging green, and hundreds of wandering orioles are surround the Jianzhang. The sound of the swords and braids follow the steps of the jade trunk, and the clothes and bodies are scattered into the imperial furnace. They bathe together on the Fengfeng Pond, and serve the king every day."

Hearing the sound of drums from the neighbors, Lin Feng woke up from his dream. "Book of Tang": "Sunday, the drums are eight hundred times and the doors are closed; at 5 o'clock, the drums are launched from the inside, and the drums on the streets are revived, and the gates of the market are opened, and the drums are three thousand times, and the colors are stopped." Since the ancient Tang Dynasty began to strictly plan Lifang in the city, the drums placed in each neighborhood have been beaten at dusk every day, and they are mainly used to guard against thieves, and have the function of reporting the time to open the door. The drum sound has nothing to do with the officials going to court, but the officials can judge the time based on the sound of the drum. "Five o'clock" is equivalent to around 5 o'clock this morning.

Last night, Lin Feng wrote too late, and finally he could be said to be so tired that he fell asleep. He didn't think about the morning court. When he got up this morning, he immediately remembered the poem "The Morning Court of the Daming Palace presented to the two provinces" by Jia Zhi, a clerk of the Central Secretariat in the late Kaiyuan period of Emperor Xuanzong of Tang Dynasty. In his poem, Jia Zhi portrayed the morning court ceremony as usual, from far to near, from entering the court to retreating, and was clearly layered and elegant and solemn.

As soon as he washed his face, Lin Feng heard someone slap the door: "Lin Yilang, have you gotten up?"

Who could it be? So early, but the sound sounded a little familiar. Lin Feng walked out of the house softly, hurriedly walked past the yard, and opened the gate.

He knew the people outside the door, Li Qiang, the coachman of Zheng Wang Mansion, Lin Feng and Wei San, and Sun Cuo was riding his car when he went out to find a base.

Seeing that the gate of the courtyard opened, Li Qiang immediately took a step back and said respectfully: "Lin Yilang, last night, King Zheng stayed in the palace a little late. After returning, he kept complaining that he had not caught up to congratulate you in person. After hearing that you had gone out to celebrate, King Zheng wrote a letter, ordering the villain to send it to Lord Han Xizai Han's mansion, and inviting Lord Han to go to court with you this morning to avoid being rude in front of the palace. At the same time, King Zheng also ordered the villain to serve the villain from now on to serve the court with the car."

He is worthy of being my good disciple, and he is very considerate. Lin Feng secretly praised and said to Li Qiang Ping: "Thank you, Your Highness Zheng, for your kindness. Lin is very grateful. You come and wait first, I will put on my public uniform soon."

"No, Lin Yilang, please go there by yourself. I'd better wait outside. Last night, the villain just told Lord Han about the general location of the mansion, afraid that Lord Han would not be able to find this place when he came." Li Qiang took a step back and said respectfully.

"Then, I'm sorry!" This was the first time Lin Feng was being served like this. He was a little uncomfortable, so he opened the door and hurried into the house.

Before Lin Feng could fully put on his public uniform, he heard Han Xizai shouting outside the yard with a loud voice: "Boy Lin, are you too unfavorable?"

While wearing the clasp on his public uniform, Lin Feng hurried to the gate of the yard and smiled and said to Han Xizai who was "calling to the door": "I wonder where Lin is making Lord Han angry?"

"You were lucky to be Shenglong yesterday, but I was not the first to notify me. I am useless to treat you as a good friend." Han Xizai grabbed Lin Feng and stuffed a roll of paper into his arms with his other hand. "I wrote a deck of words as a gift to see if I like it?"

Lin Feng hurriedly opened it and read it. The four large characters "Kunpeng spreads its wings" were written on it. The shape is square, the strokes are straight, and the strokes are vigorous. This eight-point script was good at Han Xizai. This eight-point script was created by Wang Cizhong of the Qin Dynasty. According to records, it was said that it was divided into eight-point scripts of Cheng Miao's Li characters, and the small seal script of Li Si was divided into eight-point script, so it was named eight-point script. Later, it evolved into today's regular script, also known as "real script".

"Of course I like it. I'm afraid I can't afford the word Kunpeng." Lin Feng knew that his brush calligraphy was too overly ill, and he admired the real good calligraphy in his heart.

"Just like it! Let's go to the court together." Han Xizai grabbed Lin Feng's hand and pulled his car. Li Qiang had to drive the empty car to follow behind.

At this time, the sky was still hazy, but Lin Feng saw through the car window that there were lanterns constantly lit up in the mansions on both sides of the avenue, and there were servants packing up carriages or horses at the door. He couldn't help but ask: "Mr. Han, do you have many people involved in Chaoyi? Do you usually get up so early?"

It seems that it is a great pleasure to wait until Mr. Lin Feng, who seems to know everything, to ask for advice. Han Xizai had rushed from his home in Qijiashan in the south of the city to the northeast of Lin Feng's city. He got up much earlier than usual. He was covering his mouth and yawning. When he heard this, he was exactly the same as Li Yu's performance when he first heard Lin Feng ask for advice. He immediately became energetic, straightened his body, and said aloud:

"The Book of Songs? Qifeng? Chicken Crying" says: "The chicken has cried, and the court has been full." Zheng Chuhui, the former Tang Dynasty, recorded in the "Miscellaneous Records of Emperor Ming Dynasty": "The five drums first rose, and the fire was full, and they were about to go to the court, and the tower was like a city." It is exactly the current situation. Since ancient times, the emperor has paid attention to "diligence", so-called "early and sleeping at night", and he dared not slacken. These officials, because they are scattered in the city of Jinling, must get up early. As for the early court, the short-lived Later Tang Dynasty in the north, there is a book called "

It is recorded in the Book of Tang? Official Records of Officials. It is recorded that civil and military officials have served on the ninth rank or above. On the first day of the first day of the 15th day of the 1st day of the 1st day of the 1st day of the 1st day of the 1st day of the 1st day of the 1st day of the 1st day of the 1st day of the 1st day of the 1st day of the 1st day of the 1st day of the 1st day of the 1st day of the 1st day of the 1st day of the 1st day of the 1st day of the 1st day of the 1st day of the 1st day of the 1st day of the 1st day of the 1st day of the 1st day of the 1st day of the 1st day of the 1st day of the 1st day of the 1st day of the 1st day of the 1st day of the 1st day of the 1st day of the 1st day of the 1st day of the 1st day of the 1st day of the 1st day of the 1st day of the 1st day of the 1st day of the 1st day of the 1st day of the 1st day of the 1st day of the 1st day of the 1st day of the 1st day of the 1st day of the 1st day of the 1st day of the 1st day of the 1st day of the 1st day of the 1st day of the 1st day of the 1st day of the 1st day of the 1st day of the 1st day of the 1st day of the 1st day of the 1st day of the 1st day of the 1st day of the 1st day of the 1st day of the 1st day of the 1st day of the 1st day of the 1st day of the 1st day of the 1st day of the 1st day of the 1

Lin Feng asked, "What are the rituals in the court?" Although he had some knowledge of these contents in his previous life, he really didn't like the etiquette of worshiping and not memorizing these contents carefully.

"The court ceremony is abbreviated as 'Court Etiquette' and 'Court Etiquette'. Since ancient times, there have been two main types. One is that emperors and ministers handle government affairs in the court, which is called 'Court Etiquette'. The so-called 'Court Etiquette' and 'Court Etiquette' in documents and historical records are mostly this kind; the other is that the emperor meets the civil and military officials, the royal princes and foreign envoys during festivals such as Yuanzheng and Winter Solstice, and receives congratulations from all ministers, which are called 'Court Etiquette', or 'Court Etiquette' and 'Court Etiquette'. In comparison, the specifications of the ceremonies of the ceremonies that are congratulated by the emperor are higher than those of the ceremonies."

Han Xizai rarely has the opportunity and desire to show off, so he starts with these etiquette systems from the beginning.

"First talk about the rituals of the Constant Chaos. The Book of Rites says that in ancient times, there were five gates in the palace of the emperor - Gaomen, Kumen, Jimen, Yingmen, and Lumen; there were three dynasties - Outer Chao, governing Chao, and Yan Dynasty. Outer Chao, the emperor was outside the Kumen, and the princes were inside the Kumen. If there were major events in the country, they would be outside the people and asked about it, and it was not a place for constant dynasty. The governing Chaos was outside the Lumen, which was the place where the court listened to the government every day. Yan Dynasty was inside the Lumen, which was where the court discussed with the princes and clans, and it was where the court was to retreat to the court and govern the government after retreating."

"How do all the officials in the court stand in the court's position?" Lin Feng decided to be a good student at this moment to satisfy Han Xizai's addiction to being a good teacher.
