In the scene where the emperor went up and down the court and the eunuch shouted in the Qing palace, the procedure of the emperor going up and down the court was almost fixed. A eunuch stood in front of the dragon throne, dragging a long tone and loudly announcing "going to court" and "quitting court", and then the ministers knelt down and shouted "Long live!" Empresses in the palace began with the ceremony in Yongzheng Palace. An eunuch whipped three times outside the main hall. Magnified is the scene of Yongzheng court and ministers paying homage, and no one speaks. Zhang Xiaolong said, this is the correct etiquette for the Qing emperor to go to court. There is a technical term called "three tones on the tip of the tongue". "In the Qing Dynasty, he didn't shout" court "or" retreat "with his mouth. Clap three whips before going to court, which means that An (Weibo) is quiet and the emperor goes to court; I retired three times, which means that the emperor retired. " Zhen Huan passed on stills. In most Qing dynasty dramas, the emperor sits in the dragon chair, and the ministers stand below, or begin to perform or discuss. However, in "Harem", the way of discussion between the emperor and courtiers has changed greatly. Yongzheng was sitting alone outside Gan Qing's door, and all the ministers stood outside the hall, and some of them came forward to play. Zhang Xiaolong said that the Qing emperors did not handle political affairs in one room, as many Qing dramas say now. The emperor and the minister are in the same room, only the emperor can summon the minister alone. "When called by the eunuch, the minister will kneel on the futon when he enters the room." Formal court proceedings, like the scene in "Empresses in the Palace", also have a professional saying that "the imperial gate listens to politics". "In the documentary" The Forbidden City (Weibo) ",there is a special article about Imperial Gate Listening to Politics." According to Zhang Xiaolong, it is a form of dealing with government affairs by emperors who have made great achievements in past dynasties. Because it is held in the early morning, it is also called early morning. In the Qing Dynasty, from the beginning of Emperor Kangxi, the position of Imperial Gate was moved from Fengtian Gate (Taihe Gate) to Ganqing Gate. Every morning (in Weibo), ministers of civil and military affairs queue up to enter from the left and right doors of the meridian gate, and put them on both sides of Ganqing Gate according to their grades. The emperor sat down, the eunuch blew the whip, the ministers knelt down and kowtowed three times, and then the ministers of Jiuqing and Liuqing successively played the memorial, and the emperor made a decision. After the matter was handled, the whip rang again, the emperor drove back to the palace, and the officials quit. In some Qing dynasty dramas, ministers always whisper to each other, and people talk about it. Zhang Xiaolong said that this is also incorrect. "For example, in Ji Xiaolan with an iron mouth and copper teeth, the emperor sat on it, and the ministers below played happily, which was not in line with the etiquette system at that time. According to the regulations, when Yumen is listening to politics, ministers are not allowed to talk, whisper, cough, spit, etc. Otherwise, it will be treated rudely. " The emperor traveled to the streets to watch the emperor travel, and a sea of people was very common in Qing palace dramas. The queen in the palace changed this practice. For example, when the emperor travels in the palace, the palace maids and eunuchs all stand facing the wall, which makes the audience curious. Zhang Xiaolong said that it is wrong to look at the emperor. In his early years, he specially consulted Wanrong's younger brother Guo Buluorunqi. "He said that it is impossible for you to play now. When the emperor travels, people on both sides stretch their heads and wish to touch the emperor. The etiquette of the emperor's trip should be like this. There is a leading eunuch in front, hissing at the people. When people know that someone is coming out of the palace, they should stand facing the wall. If there is no wall, they will also face the palace. " Zhang Xiaolong said that the first purpose of turning around was to ensure the safety of the emperor, and also to express the emperor's supreme majesty. "You can't just look at the dragon's face." Too much direct contact between doctors and the body is an important element of the Qing palace drama. There used to be Lei Ju, who treated Gege too much with doctors, stripped him naked and examined the wound. In contrast, in The Queen of the Palace, Dr. Wen, played by Zhang Xiaolong, is timid and makes sense. Zhang Xiaolong revealed that the historical record of how the imperial doctor felt the pulse for the harem queen was "grasping the pulse by hanging down the silk", because the court was pecking and orderly, and men and women were different. Cure too much can't directly show the queen and princesses, smell, ask and feel. He can only fix one end of the silk thread on the patient's pulse, and the doctor can diagnose and treat the condition through the pulse condition at the other end of the silk thread, commonly known as "hanging the silk thread to feel the pulse". However, if this way is directly presented in TV series, it will be too mysterious and too mythical, so the concubines in the palace adopted a flexible way. "Cover your wrist with a piece of cloth. When you feel the pulse, the doctor will kneel down and lower his head without looking at the face of the concubines. This is a compromise, which can not only diagnose the pulse, but also reflect that men and women are not close. " The etiquette of the doctor too much is not only reflected in the process of pulse diagnosis, but also includes entering and leaving the stage. "I play cure too much, and I will take many steps to turn back. In front of Zhen Xuan, the queen and the concubines, I never look them in the eye, but hang my eyes. This is respect. " In the play, Dr. Wen has feelings for both eyebrow zhuang and him. Zhang Xiaolong said the role was difficult to play: "The lines are basically emotional, but you have to show your feelings. But no matter which episode the audience watches, they can see my love from my eyes. " The concubines in the palace are strict and impeccable in the etiquette of barrier-free walking in the outer male harem. For example, the harem concubines ran to the emperor's study when they had something to do, and they often met ministers on the road and would nod and say hello. The most interesting thing is that the emperor's younger brother, Prince Guo, can walk around the harem. As a result, he fell in love with Zhen Xuan, the emperor's woman, and caused a lot of trouble. Zhang Xiaolong said that these plots were forced to violate etiquette. "If you shoot completely according to history, you can't see it. Because concubines and ministers can't meet each other, men except the emperor can't turn around in the harem. But if no one can meet anyone, how can there be a story and how can there be an emotional drama? " However, Zhang Xiaolong believes that it is not impossible for Prince Guo to walk in the palace, although it violates the etiquette system. "The emperor is the king of a country, and these manners are all his. Of course, he can also change the manners. Prince Guo is the person he admires, and sometimes he can change the rules for the person he admires. The previous dynasties also had such concessions, and the emperor could make an exception. "
