Entering the main hall, all the officials returned to the train, they did not hold the court wat in their hands, they all came empty-handed.
Chao Wat is a kind of board, not all jade plates, in fact, it is a tool used to remember small stir-frying.
It is not necessary to bring a court wat when going to the court, but the court meeting will definitely bring a court wat to the court, and it is also out of need for etiquette.
That's because there are a lot of things to do at the court, and too many people have a lot of topics to talk about, and just remembering those things is enough to be dizzy, and you need to bring the court wat to remember some important things.
Then, it is difficult to take care of what you want to talk about without a little stir-fry, and then the Son of Heaven will ask questions by name during the Great Dynasty Meeting, and you can't be asked and can't answer.
After a brief silence, many people began to talk to the people next to them in low voices.
In the Han dynasty, there have always been some people who will have seats, not hundreds of officials standing in line on the right path.
The most important position of the main hall is, of course, the high platform at the bottom, and the steps with nine steps and five steps are the number of "nine five", which means that the supreme platform is also called the throne platform.
Under the supreme platform, that is, on the platform of the upper five steps, there is a part of the space left, and there are two seats to the left and right.
These two chapter chairs were offered to the queen and the crown prince on some occasions.
The space left is to be able to add some nursery groups at any time, which is naturally for the princes.
Down, light fixtures will be placed in the middle of the stairs to leave a walkway on either side.
Each oil lamp is not too big, and they are shaped like a white crane spreading its wings, and the wick is on the top of the head.
There were no seats within ten meters of the Supreme Terrace, and there was a map of the territory painted on the floor on the floor, so if you sat on the throne, you would have enough light to be able to read your empire.
A little further back, the ground becomes a pattern of dragons flying and phoenixes dancing, and the heavyweight ministers have something to say to the king.
Now the Son of Heaven is the Son of Heaven, but there is no concept that the Son of Heaven is a dragon, and there is naturally no problem for the minister to step on the pattern with a dragon.
In addition, the current status of the phoenix totem is much higher than that of the dragon totem, but the phoenix has always had the implication of assisting the king, and it is also an honor for the core ministers to step on such a pattern in the main hall of the ceremony.
Seats are arranged on the left and right sides of the 10 meters away from the Supreme Terrace.
At present, it is respected on the left, and the first seat is the Tai Lieutenant, unlike other officials who sit in the nursery group, a wooden seat with a backrest and armrests is arranged, and the seat of the hussar general is placed in order, and then the seat of the general of the four expedition level.
Han Zhonglang will not be in the first echelon below the level.
The first one on the right is naturally the prime minister's seat, a wooden seat with a backrest and armrests like the Taiwei, and the seat of the Jiuqingpu regiment of other civil servants.
The rest of the people except Jiuqing are also not in the first echelon.
The so-called first echelon is within 20 meters of the Supreme Tower, and according to the etiquette system, they are the king's right-hand men and the important ministers of the state.
The Han state under Liu Yan's rule differed from the previous dynasties in that the status of military generals was promoted, such as the generals of the "Zheng" level, and their treatment was equal to that of Jiuqing.
If you look at the dynasties before Liu Yan established the Han State, almost all of them were military generals whose status was higher than that of civilian officials, then Liu Yan's arrangement can be regarded as a continuation of the ancient system.
To put it bluntly, it is natural that the status of military generals is higher than that of civilian officials, and it is natural for them to be recognized by the public, and it is deviant if the status of civilian officials is higher than that of military generals.
The second echelon of hundred officials still has seats, the difference is that they are farther away from the Supreme Stage, and they are no longer arranged on the left and right sides, but are arranged into a multi-level horizontal column.
The main hall of Jianzhang Palace is very large, the walkway at the gate is not directly leading to the Supreme Terrace, it is ten meters after entering the door, there is a Phoenix Coming Pavilion, and a landscape directly isolates the view of the outdoor view to the Supreme Terrace.
The phoenix comes to the ceremony to take the meaning of the historical record Xia Benji: the ancestors are examined, the group is let go, the birds and beasts are dancing, Xiao Shao is ninety, the phoenix emperor is coming, the beasts are dancing, and the officials are harmonious.
There is a phoenix pavilion at the entrance, and the passage naturally needs to extend to the left and right.
Fifteen meters away from the gate, there is a pool that stretches forward, and every five meters there is a bridge with a moon span, and at a depth of 30 meters, there is a floating platform in the center of the pool.
At a depth of thirty meters, the floor is fully substantial, and the floor is paved with nanmu planks, which look incredibly smooth, and the dull yellow planks can even reflect objects.
The hundred officials who are not qualified to sit in the first echelon, they just sit in front of the pool, and if the room is quiet and they can hear the sound of water flowing behind them, it means that the pool is flowing living water.
From the main gate inward, the total length is more than five hundred meters, and the interior space is shown as a rectangle.
The spacious main hall lobby has thick load-bearing columns every eight meters on the left and right sides, and they require five people to hug each other before they can touch each other.
Each load-bearing column is copper-clad solid wood, and the reason why the outer layer is copper structure is naturally for the convenience of carving, will be carved on rare animals, or carved on some landscape paintings.
As for the load-bearing pillar to get the coiling dragon, it is not a thing, it is not that there is no technology, it is that there is no such custom.
The gaze returns to the Grand Terrace.
The throne above the supreme platform does not have too many fancy features, and it is not made of gold, it is a wooden seat carved with a white bird and a phoenix.
The chair is not the appearance of the Taishi chair, let alone a dragon seat, and there is no dragon-related pattern on the chair.
None of the Xia, Shang, Zhou, and Qin dynasties believed in totems based on dragons, but on the contrary, birds had the most totems.
From the totem of the royal flag, and even the family totem, it can be studied.
The place where there is a dragon on the supreme platform is on the left and right sides of the throne, and the guardrail at the edge of the platform is the shape of a dragon, they show a bronze color, the body full of scales is relatively slender, and the four-legged claws are only three, showing the form of teeth and claws as a whole.
Today's dragon is not the same as the dragon of later generations, the dragon before the Mengyuan Dynasty is basically three-clawed, sometimes the first two legs are three-clawed, and the latter two-legged is four-clawed examples, see the porcelain decoration of the Tang, Song and Yuan dynasties, the Ming generation is popular four-clawed dragon, and "I Daqing" is a five-clawed dragon is more.
Because it only has three claws, it is a dragon.

In addition, although dragons are all called dragons, in fact, totems are always evolving.
For example, the Shang and Zhou dynasties were in the posture of the Kuilong period, the dragons of the Qin, Han, Sui, and Tang dynasties were in the posture of the Ying dragon, and the form of the Yellow Dragon was in the Tang and Song dynasties, and the image foundation of the Liao, Jin, and Yuan dynasties was laid.
At this stage of time, the dragon is in the right posture of showing teeth and claws.
It was created to deter, anyway, the Qin and Han dynasties did not carry any auspicious meaning, and some were vicious, vicious, and vicious The two sides of the seating ladder are arranged according to the etiquette specifications.
On the side of the first seat, you can see a neat screen.
In fact, the existence of the screen was to serve as a temporary discussion room, and when the minister was faced with the king's questioning, he could make up his mind and invite someone to discuss it.
The court meeting can also enter the "small black house" to discuss this is a real thing, but this kind of thing does not exist after the Southern Song Dynasty.
After all, the relationship between monarchs and ministers before the Southern Song Dynasty was the same, and all those after Meng Yuan were slaves except for kings.
If you can't answer the question, don't say it's unpredictable On the side of the second echelon of Baiguan, there are some musical instruments on both sides, not random musical instruments, but a complete range of chimes.
Chimes arose in the Western Zhou Dynasty and flourished in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period until the Qin and Han dynasties.
The bells of the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period are not just for anyone to own, they have to be specially given by the royal family to have them.
In fact, even if the Zhou royal family allowed a certain prince to have a set of bells, in terms of productivity at that time, it was not just a prince who could make a set of bells.
This is related to the technology, for example, a large amount of wax is needed to make the chime, at that time the wax can only be made with honey, and the princes of the country whose territory is not large enough can not even prepare the wax, how to make the chime After arriving in the Qin and Han dynasties, the chimes were no longer as tall as the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, but they were still court instruments, and they were still not owned by people of any level.
Hundreds of years later, chimes are still a court instrument, and they cannot be owned unless they are in charge of the name and instrument.
It's just that it's been too long, civilization has been destroyed by barbarism, and the bells that only the royal family mastered have basically been lost, and if they don't create bells anymore, the chimes should be transformed from musical instruments into a real ornament.
The ringing of a bell stopped the people in the hall who were talking, and no matter what they had been doing, they all stood in a bowing posture in the direction of the throne.
Liu Yan took the lead in wearing the crown of the Son of Heaven, followed by the palace maids carrying peacock lanterns on the left and right, and a warrior wearing gorgeous heavy armor and Cui Zong followed.
The peacock lamp is naturally a peacock-like lamp, the main structure is a copper material, the lamp is divided into three layers, the lower two layers are respectively set on the trumpet-shaped base with two large lamp bowls, the bowl is symmetrically inserted with four small lamps, the top layer is molded into a peacock with its head open on its head, and the peacock carries a lamp on its back.
Because there are nine small lamps that can be lit at the same time, it is also called "nine lanterns".
The samurai in ornate heavy armor was also famous, he was the general of the main hall of the court this time, and he was in charge of order and security.
The general of the hall is not an official position, nor is he a real general, who will take this position is completely up to the Son of Heaven, and it is generally for some young guys to show their faces, and there is no hint that the Son of Heaven will deliberately cultivate.
Ran Min saw the eyes behind the face armor of the general of the main hall, and his son could see it even if he only looked at a pair of eyes, and immediately grinned silently.
It was so quiet that the sound of flowing water in the pool could be heard in the main hall, and Liu Yan walked to the throne and sat down.
Cui Zong walked to the side of the Supreme Stage, pondered for a while, and was also waiting for the hundred officials to return to their respective seats, and said in a loud voice: "The Son of Heaven and the Emperor are discussing."
At the beginning, Liu Yan thought that the court was the early dynasty, but that was the name of the Ming generation and "I Daqing".
At present, it is called "court discussion", and there is no such thing as "early dynasty".
Today is not a big court meeting, it is a small court meeting, and the obvious difference is that the county guards who also came to Chang'an to report on their work in various counties were not summoned to the court, but the generals who returned to Chang'an were summoned to participate.
"Early Dynasty" is not called "Early Dynasty", and naturally there is no opening sentence of "Something to start, nothing to retreat from", Liu Yan didn't cross this sentence before he actually felt full of slots.
Liu Yan sat down, but the hundred officials who had just returned to their seats stood up and left their seats again, stood on the left and right sides of the righteous path, and bowed neatly and shouted in unison: "See the Son of Heaven" did not kneel, it was not that Liu Yan changed the rules, on the contrary, he continued the rules, the monarchs and ministers of the Qin and Han dynasties did not kneel and worship at every turn, and they were able to sit during the court discussion.
There is nothing wrong with saying "see the Son of Heaven", bowing down and bowing is indeed a visit, kneeling on the ground without bowing is a visit, and kneeling on the ground and bowing is something that only a criminal official can do.
Liu Yan should have spoken at this time: "Zhongqing is flat." ” The hundred officials stood upright again, but they bowed again before returning to their positions.
Cui Zong and other hundred officials all sat down, and said loudly: "Today's deliberations are mainly based on restructuring, and they are divided into small discussions." ” At the beginning, it was pointed out what was to be discussed that day, which is also a characteristic from the Qin and Han dynasties, which means that if no one wants to do anything today, then don't go beyond the set topic.
It is true that the court will set the agenda first, and it is not the kind of model where the officials can say whatever they want, or what order will come from.
In fact, if it weren't for the burning of jade, there would not have been an official who suddenly came out of his sleeve and took out a notebook during the court discussion, or named someone to be tough in front of the Son of Heaven.
Cui Zong took a step back after speaking, indicating that whoever wants to express something can appear.
Ji Chang got up without giving in, did not leave his position, saluted Liu Yan on the throne, and said: "The territory of the Han Dynasty is increasing day by day, and it is difficult to echo the old system.
Obeying the will of the Son of Heaven, he will change the system of three provinces and six ministries. ” It was another matter of some old sayings, Ji Chang introduced the names of the main official positions of the three provinces and the six ministries, and explained some powers clearly, and sat down again after saying the salute.
Liu Yan's voice was conveyed to the hall after Ji Chang sat down: "Zhongqing has doubts" The restructuring has been prepared for four years, and Yuan Shuo has been warming up again and again in ten years, and the people who are concerned have long studied it thoroughly, even if they don't understand some places, they won't be stupid enough to ask the Son of Heaven, and they all replied in unison: "None" Many people are secretly looking at Ji Chang, once the system is really changed to three provinces and six ministries, there will be no prime minister in charge of civil affairs, although Ji Chang will still be one of the three civil giants of the Zhongshu Order, but no matter how it can compare to the authority and scenery of the prime minister.
In the twelfth year of Yuan Shuo, everyone's positions will change, which is a normal position transfer, if there is no such thing as a reform, Ji Chang will also step down from the position of prime minister, as for whether he will no longer hold an official position or be transferred to another position, in fact, it is not easy to say.
After confirming the restructuring, the impact of Ji Chang's resignation as prime minister was infinitely reduced, which was actually a good thing for him.
After the restructuring, the most prominent person is Xu Zheng, he was going to step down from the post of Tai Lieutenant, but without the official position of Tai Lieutenant, he has a general, and those who know inside information know that he will still be the first general, and those who have no malice feel lucky, and some people will inevitably think that they have taken shit luck.
However, when Xu Zheng served as a lieutenant, the army made achievements that were obvious to all, and no matter how much people had opinions, they couldn't say a reason to discredit them, so they had to admit it
