What influence did China's ancient political system have on ancient architecture?

China's ancient political system had a great influence on ancient architecture. An important feature of ancient architecture in China is to reflect political factors. It can be mainly seen from two aspects: the building hierarchy and the system of workers and officials.

The building hierarchy is an insurmountable system that stipulates what level of houses people should build, which is mainly reflected in four aspects: roof style, number of rooms, architectural color and color painting style. Please refer to Architectural French for details. It is equivalent to today's construction law, but it is more hierarchical.

The industrial official system is that children are not allowed to change jobs after their parents' work, so as to ensure that the exquisite craftsmanship is not lost and that the old master's rice bowl is not robbed. For example, a whole set of buildings, such as chengde mountain resort and the Forbidden City, all come from the Lei family. In addition, architects should be graded, and royal masters should not design for any non-royal buildings or participate in them. The official in charge of this building is called Dong Guan. And Qiu Guan, but I forgot what they were in charge of. .
