The draft is to select outstanding women to enrich the emperor's harem. The steps are cumbersome and the requirements are strict.

After Li Yongxuan became emperor, he made adjustments to the draft system.

First of all, the family background must be innocent. In the past, it was generally required to be relatives of the emperor, ministers, daughters of aristocratic families, and ladies from famous families.

For example, Queen He of the Eastern Han Dynasty, whose father was a butcher, was originally not eligible to run for election. She entered the palace and became queen through bribery.

Now Li Yongxuan only requires a clean family background and does not attach much importance to being well-matched, so he has greatly relaxed the scope of selection.

Secondly, the age requirement is thirteen to seventeen years old.

Currently, women get married at the age of thirteen or fourteen, and those over the age of seventeen usually cannot get married.

After Li Yongxuan heard the explanation, he did not change the age requirement.

Third, he has outstanding appearance and good character and temperament.

First, the father-in-law inspects the woman's appearance, hair, ears, forehead, eyebrows, eyes, mouth, nose, shoulders, back, legs, feet, and voice. If there is anything that does not please the eyes or ears, she is not qualified.

.

Then he took a ruler to measure the woman's hands, arms, waist, legs, and feet, and moved around. Anyone whose size did not meet the requirements or who had poor demeanor or good manners would be eliminated.

Finally, to be physically healthy, you must be a virgin.

A beautiful appearance, a good figure, and a long figure are the most basic. There is no room for physical flaws. Even if a woman has a small black mole on her skin, she cannot have it, let alone a woman with hemorrhoids, body odor and other hidden diseases, just because she has too much hair.

Nope either.

A woman enters a secret room alone and takes off all her clothes...

In addition, the woman's walking posture was observed and tested with incense ash.

Put the prepared incense ash in a basin, ask the woman to take off her clothes and squat down, and then use pepper or the like to stimulate her nose.

Selected and qualified show girls must receive about a month of training in the palace to familiarize them with various rules and etiquette in the palace, and their intelligence, character and style will also be examined.

Those who sleep in an indecent manner or those who fart and sleepwalk must not be kept, lest they frighten the emperor in the future.

The new maids are still being selected, and the old maids have been sent out of the palace. Li Yongxuan can only make do with them.

The maids who were sent out of the palace were all from clean family backgrounds. Those who were young could get married as soon as they returned home from the palace; those who were old and had no family members either stayed in the palace or were rewarded to meritorious officers.

There are too many father-in-laws in the palace who serve as supervisory envoys and are sent to various places to take charge of supervisory tasks.

Knowing that the emperor was in urgent need of recruiting people, the people who drafted women tried their best and screened them in full swing.

I don’t know how many people in the imperial court want to take this opportunity to achieve great success, and the kingdom of heaven and the world will be turbulent.

Li Yongxuan did not wait to favor the new draft girl, he began to vigorously rectify the government, develop the economy, and carry out commerce.

He abolished the prime minister system to avoid the emergence of a powerful prime minister to control the government like the Song Dynasty.

The military and government are separated at the local level, and the Supervisory Bureau has the power to conduct supervision and review. The three are separated and check and balance each other to prevent excessive local power.

At the same time, Li Yongxuan strengthened the Jinyiwei system and granted the power of investigation and arrest. Dali Temple was responsible for the trial of cases, and the Ministry of Punishment was responsible for punishing criminals.

In addition, we also vigorously crack down on corrupt officials and allow citizens to petition for complaints.

If officials are found to be involved in corruption or fraud, they can report it to superior officials; if there are any serious grievances, they can even go to Beijing to complain.

Not only will you not be punished, you will also be rewarded.

Li Yongxuan established five capitals, including Lin'an in the east, Chang'an in the middle, Peiping in the north, Guangzhou in the south, and Jincheng in the west. Each capital had a military governor, which formed a mutual check with the Ministry of War, and military power was concentrated in the hands of the emperor.

In order to recruit more talents for his use, Li Yongxuan not only did not disband Xuanmen, but also recruited disciples on a large scale, and specially established Taiyuan Academy to recruit talented young scholars, train them, and make use of their talents.

Xuanmen respects martial arts, while Taiyuan is known for its literary and political talents. They can both be said to be disciples of the emperor.

Li Yongxuan implemented the land equalization system in the economy, allowing people with little land to have land for farming and stable production.

He not only attached great importance to agriculture, but also to commerce, and provided many convenient conditions for commercial development, such as banknotes, heavenly bank, opening of routes, reduction of taxes, etc.

After Li Yongxuan became emperor, envoys from Dali, Annan and other Southeast Asian countries were sent to congratulate him. They all brought precious gifts, including pearls, gems, jade, jade, rare treasures, etc., as well as beautiful women.

The kings of these places knew that they could not compete with the Celestial Kingdom, so they wanted to take the initiative to show favor to Li Yongxuan.

Even Queen Haishu, who ruled the Mongol Empire, sent envoys with congratulatory gifts to express her congratulations.

Since the inside is unreliable, Haisi wants to use external forces to achieve what she wants.

Li Yongxuan expressed his gratitude and returned a generous gift.

He knew that Haimi was alone in Mongolia and could not withstand the pressure brought by Batu, Meng Ge, Kublai Khan and others, so he wanted to support Haimi to compete with Batu and others.

Li Yongxuan didn't know how long it took for Haimi to be crowned. He only knew that Meng Ge Khan was stoned to death by Yang Guo in the original plot eleven years later.

Only then did he realize that his sister-in-law Guo Xiang was already over five years old.

Now, Li Yongxuan is not afraid of Mongolia at all, but it is not easy to deal with the flexible cavalry on the grassland, so he wants to consume Mongolia's strength.

Hainan was very happy and decided to conduct trade with the Kingdom of Heaven.

Mongolia has looted a lot of wealth from all over the world over the years, but the richness of its products is far less than that of the developed Kingdom of Heaven.

If the treasures can be exchanged for important supplies, it can greatly enhance the strength, and Haishui will naturally be very happy.

Furthermore, Hainan can also use trade to win over scattered forces in Mongolia as help.

Soon, Xiao Longnu and Cheng Ying gave birth to a prince and a daughter to Li Yongxuan.

As the eldest princess, Li Yu was over two years old. Ever since she moved into the palace, the flowers, birds, and fish in the imperial garden had suffered, and even the maids and father-in-law who served her had suffered.

There are very few maids and father-in-laws staying in the palace at the moment. Most of them are busy with Xiao Longnu and Cheng Ying. How many manpower are there to take care of the naughty Li Yu?

Although Li Yu is only a two-year-old child, she is more agile than an ordinary ten-year-old child. She goes to the garden to pull flowers, goes to the lake to fish, and goes up the mountain to catch birds, all without stopping for a moment.

She was so beautiful that the maids and father-in-law who were responsible for taking care of her were almost crying.

They couldn't stop them even if they wanted to, but they didn't dare to catch them even if they wanted to, and they didn't dare to beat or scold them. They could only stare at them all the time. If they didn't pay attention, they would run away.

Seeing Li Yu turning the palace upside down, the maids and father-in-law who took care of her were almost frightened to death.

Fortunately, Li Yongxuan knew Li Yu's temperament and did not blame the people who took care of her.

Usually, when Li Yongxuan or Xiao Longnu is around, Li Yu behaves very well-behaved, quiet and obedient.

It was during this period that Xiao Longnu and Cheng Ying gave birth to children one after another, and Li Yongxuan had to deal with government affairs and did not have much time to spend with his daughter, so he had to let her run wild in the palace.

After dealing with the important affairs of the government, Li Yongxuan just wanted to see Xiao Longnu when his father-in-law came over and reported that the beautiful girls from Liangzhe West Road, Liangzhe East Road, and Jiangnan East Road had been selected, and asked him when the draft would be held?

Thinking that Xiao Longnu and Cheng Ying had to be taken care of, Li Yongxuan said casually: "Now that we have been chosen, let's go now!"

The father-in-law bowed his horse and took Li Yongxuan over. The father-in-law handed over a list of the selected show girls, with their respective ages, place of origin, specialties, family background, etc. written on it.

Li Yongxuan flipped through it and frowned.

He found that there were at least a thousand people there, which was much more than the previous selection of only a hundred showgirls.

The father-in-law beside him was very good at observing looks. Seeing that Li Yongxuan looked very unhappy, he hurriedly explained: "Your Majesty, all the women in the world, I heard that you want to draft girls to enter the palace, so they are all vying to sign up. There are so many girls.

point……"

As he spoke, he knelt down on the ground, fearing that Li Yongxuan would burst into thunderous wrath.

In fact, most ladies from famous families are not willing to participate in the talent show, especially the emperor who is ignorant and immoral. Once they enter the palace, their lives will be completely ruined.

Many women would marry early to avoid the emperor's selection of women.

In order to get more beauties, some emperors also banned women from getting married early...

Of course, there are also many people who want to take advantage of this opportunity to soar into the sky.

"kindness!"

Li Yongxuan responded casually: "Get up! Those who are not selected can also stay as palace maids!"

He thought that choosing a palace maid would be troublesome, so he might as well solve the two problems together.

The father-in-law kowtowed respectfully and stood up slowly: "Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Li Yongxuan held the roster: "Ten at a time, it's faster this way!"

If he follows the old rules, one by one, and there are more than a thousand beautiful women, when will he choose to go?

Even if it's a show girl, if she does it for ten minutes without eating or sleeping, it will still take seven days to finish the selection.

These are the girls who entered the talent show near Lin'an Prefecture. I don't know how many other girls there are in other places.

If Li Yongxuan really selects girls like this, then he doesn't have to do anything every day and just selects girls every day.

Although it felt inappropriate, the father-in-law and the maids around me did not dare to say anything and immediately followed the instructions.

Soon, ten young and beautiful women appeared in front of Li Yongxuan one after another, standing together in a row.

"Does anyone know what kind of martial arts Jin Daxia has the most powerful skills?"

Li Yongxuan looked at them and had the illusion that he was choosing a princess in an entertainment venue.

However, these women are all very pure and good-looking. They are really pure and not the kind that princesses pretend to be in entertainment venues.

Even though Li Yongxuan had seen too many beauties in the world, he couldn't help but sigh that it was great to be an emperor.

Since ancient times, Suzhou and Hangzhou have produced beauties, not to mention these women who were selected through drafts.
To be continued...
