Historical materials of Northern Zhou Dynasty are unknown.

In folklore, when it comes to the emperor's family life, it is often said that there are seventy-two concubines in three palaces and six hospitals, or three thousand powders. In short, the emperor has many concubines. These statements naturally have some truth. The emperor is

The supreme ruler of feudal society has supreme authority, which is manifested in all aspects, and the arbitrary possession of the opposite sex is a manifestation of this authority. In order to satisfy the emperor's endless selfish desires,

At the same time, in order to have more children and choose the heir to the throne, the system of concubines was gradually established and improved, which was beneficial to feudal rule.

According to the Book of Rites, the system of the Zhou Dynasty was the son of heaven.

Set up a queen, three concubines, nine concubines, twenty-seven concubines and eighty-one concubines. This shows that as early as the Zhou Dynasty, the emperor's wives and concubines were called as wives, concubines, vulgar wives and imperial wives, and the number of wives and concubines was quite amazing, which caused disaster to later emperors.

For example. During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, governors from all walks of life became kings in succession. They all call themselves emperors, so it is natural to emulate the emperors in the empresses system. In fact, the number of their opposite sex has already exceeded that of Zhou. Mencius said that at that time, adults

"One hundred thousand concubines", the pipe said "one hundred thousand concubines of Chen". After Qin and Han Dynasties, except for Empresses (except the phenomenon of a certain dynasty merging), the general trend was that the level of concubines increased and the number of maids increased. Qin unified the six countries.

Later, the emperor changed to the emperor, and all the ladies-in-waiting in the six countries enriched the harem, and their wives were called queens. In addition to the empress, Qin Shihuang divided concubines into seven grades: wife, beauty, lover, eight sons, seven sons, long ambassador and little ambassador.

And thousands of ladies-in-waiting.

At the beginning of the Han Dynasty, because Liu Bang was born in the folk, he did not pay much attention to the royal etiquette system, and there was no certain system in the harem. When he arrived at Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, he was overjoyed and pursued sensory enjoyment.

Except the queen, the number of concubines increased to 14. In order: Zhao Yi, Jieyu, Moth, Ronghua, Clothes, Beauty, Lover, Eight Children, Seven Children, Big Ambassador, Little Ambassador, Five Children, Shunchang, and many 14th grade names, such as Dance Guard and Entertainment.

Ling, etc. In addition, there are so-called "families" and "waiting for the court", which number thousands. Their status is low, and they always have to sacrifice their bodies for the emperor's spoil. If you have children, your status

Can be promoted, if lucky enough to get the favor of the emperor, you can also be promoted to a formal concubine. They are a bit like Pinger in A Dream of Red Mansions. Said she was a girl and had the title of concubine. Said she was a formal concubine, and she was different from Zhao.

Auntie or something. When Wang Mang was restructured, the number of concubines and concubines was set at 120. Later generations took this as a common practice for concubines. Guangwu Zhongxing, harem title only queen, noble, beauty and so on. Simplify the previous harem level too much.

Disadvantages. Empresses and concubines in the later Han Dynasty were more polite and law-abiding, and rarely lost their virtue.

During the Three Kingdoms period, Wei was under the queen, and concubines were divided into five grades. By the first year of Taihe (AD 277), it had increased to the twelfth grade. After the Emperor Wu of Jin destroyed Wu, thousands of people in Sun Hao's harem and tens of thousands of people took it for themselves.

Emperor Daowu of the Northern Wei Dynasty began to set up middle officials, and the rest of the concubines were called wives, but there was no fixed number. Filial piety reform, restore the ancient establishment 120 people. After that, there was no big change until the Sui and Tang Dynasties. Of course, whether in the Northern Wei Dynasty or the Sui and Tang Dynasties, this is just a name.

The actual figures are far more than these. It is worth mentioning that Emperor Wendi of Sui Dynasty. After he unified the country, he was afraid of his wife's lonely queen and was afraid to recruit new lovers. He became the only feudal emperor who remained monogamous and had no concubines.

The emperor. After the death of Queen Dugu, he dared to add something to China and accept his love. His son Yang-ti rebelled against his father's style, pursued lewd enjoyment, expanded his harem, and lived a decadent life, no less than that of Emperor Wu. Sent twice in the early Tang dynasty

There are 6,000 beautiful women in the Sui harem, and you can imagine how debauched Yang-ti was.

In the Tang dynasty, under the queen, the imperial concubine, the Shu princess, the De princess and the Xian princess were concubines. With Zhao Yi,,,, Xiurong, Xiuxiu.

There are nine kinds of elements: element, instrument, capacity and element. There are also Jieyu, beauty, gifted scholar, Lin Bao, imperial daughter, vegetable girl and so on. There are * * * 108 people. One, two, a total of one person. During the reign of Xuanzong, the number of maids increased to 3000. Bai Juyi's poem "Beautiful Harem"

Li 3,000 people "is not bragging. In the first year of Su Zong Baoying (AD 762), 3,000 empresses were released, which proved to be true.

The Song Dynasty was similar to the Tang Dynasty. In addition to being noble, virtuous and virtuous, the title of princess has been added with Chen Fei. There were many concubines in Liao Dynasty and twelve concubines in Jin Dynasty.

In the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang had too many ladies in the harem in the past dynasties, which was out of order and involved in political affairs, leading to endless troubles. It stipulates the customization and access system of the six palaces. But to no avail, once Emperor Jiajing was elected.

There are nine famous concubines in the palace, and even more unknown ones. The titles of concubines in Ming Dynasty were Xian, Shu, Jing, Hui, Shun, Kang, Ning and Zhao. Among all the concubines, the imperial concubine is the tallest, second only to the queen, and the imperial concubine is the third.

Imperial secretary's address includes imperial secretary, waiter, talented person, wife and so on. By the end of the Ming dynasty, politics was more corrupt, with as many as 9000 maids.

After Kangxi in the Qing Dynasty, the imperial system was fully prepared and the harem number was strictly customized.

Ming. The emperor's wife is called the queen. She is located in the center of the palace and is responsible for internal governance. The following are one concubine, two concubines and six concubines, who are the twelve officials of the East and West, respectively, to assist the Queen in managing the internal affairs. There are three classes of nobles below, whose constant existence and commitment are uncertain.

Well, I live in the East Palace and the West Palace and practice my internal skills diligently. However, throughout history of qing dynasty, besides imperial concubine and concubine, there are other princess names, such as Zhuangfei, Jinfei and Zhenfei. Although the system is very strict, the number of concubines per emperor

More or less different. Kangxi and Qianlong's concubines greatly exceeded the regulations, while Tongzhi and Guangxu were far from so many concubines. The number of ladies-in-waiting in the Qing dynasty was less than that in the Ming dynasty, which was less than 300 according to custom. Actually, it's more than that.

Count.

Throughout history, we can clearly see that this kind of polygamy of feudal emperors is an extremely evil and corrupt system. The first is the destruction and oppression of women. "Three thousand ladies-in-waiting rouge face, a few degrees of spring.

Tears Bai Juyi expressed deep sympathy for the fate of these oppressed girls. They were lucky from the beginning and were immediately abandoned; Or hope for the rest of my life, but stay in an empty room forever and never see the emperor again; Still careless, offended the emperor, knife.

Axe adds body. High walls and deep palaces, full moon in Luna Park, I wonder how many regrets and tears there are. Huang once angrily rebuked the feudal emperor, "knocking out the marrow of the world and scattering the sons of the world in order to serve me alone", which aroused the public indignation.

Many men complain, and many women complain in the palace. In fact, this is just one of the disadvantages of the empresses system.

Secondly, this polygamy also corrupted the emperor himself. Some of them, the Spring Festival Evening, are short-lived, lazy in national politics and returning home; Some people are killed for having too much sex. One of the reasons is that the emperor of China lived a long life, and his concubines were like clouds. It was immoral for him to indulge himself.

Third, within the ranks of officials, competition, jealousy, fighting and killing, as well as various disgraceful behaviors, are potential dangers to the whole bureaucratic machine. As we all know, the killing of Mrs. Qi in the Han Dynasty was cruel. Three Kingdoms Wei Wendi

At that time, Guo Hou hanged Hou Zhen, and ordered her to put on her hair when she was buried, so as not to let her abuse and vent her anger underground. Cao Rui, the son of a virgin, found out the truth and avenged his birth mother, forcing Guo to die.

Later, when I packed it, I covered my face with the same hair and stuffed bran in my mouth. This kind of tragedy of jealousy and revenge is common in the courts of past dynasties, and the source of its evil is the polygamy of the emperor. When Han became emperor, Zhao sisters cut down

Looking forward to having children to consolidate its dominant position. However, they were all infertile, so Zhao chose some assistant ministers' palaces and slaves with many children to have sex with them. His sister cleverly covered up for her in front of the emperor, even so, she

Other beautiful women in the palace were infertile, those who were pregnant were ordered to have abortions, and those who gave birth to children were killed. The Zhao sisters will never let girls and children from other palaces destroy their status, so they don't know how many lives have died at their hands. Feudal emperor

Everyone sings morality, and it seems that only they are the models of civility, courtesy and law-abiding. I don't know that scandals such as moral decay and official derailment are common in history. Jia Nanfeng and other notorious people are typical of immorality. This is Jin Hui.

Empress, she is not only vicious and jealous, but also ugly. She gave birth to four girls in a row, preferring not to have boys. She was more fierce than Zhao's sisters. She fought with the guards and stabbed a maid-in-waiting who was pregnant. Emperor Wu of Jin boasted that "I was born."

Home, courtesy comes long ",which is the most respected" etiquette ". Jia Nanfeng's indecent photos are tantamount to giving a loud slap to Emperor Wu of A Jin, casting a mask on the hypocrisy and deception of Sima family, and thoroughly exposing this talented darling.

The decadence and filth of Li Gongting. All these will certainly affect the operation of the huge feudal bureaucratic machine and weaken the dominant position of emperors in previous dynasties.
