The Jin Zhongdu Palace is located in the southwest of Beijing in the Ming Dynasty. It follows the regulations of the Northern Song Dynasty, but the buildings on the central axis are divided into two groups: the emperor's throne and the queen's throne.

The east and west parts of the Daming Hall include the Wensi Hall and the Red Sandalwood Hall, and at the back is the Baoyun Hall. There are bell towers and drum towers on both sides of the Baoyun Hall.
The clock tower is the time-telling mechanism of the city. There is a lamp lamp here, which is the Qibao lamp lamp presented to Shizu by the minister Guo Shoujin. The main body of the lamp is made of gold and jewelry. The interior is divided into four floors, and the upper floor is distributed in a ring shape. The figures of the sun, moon, ginseng and shang are rotated once a day from right to left. On the lower floor are dragons, tigers, birds, and turtles, symbolizing the four directions. At every moment, they have jumping movements. , and there is the sound of cymbals inside. The lower level is a circular ring divided into one hundred equal parts, and each equal part is a quarter of an hour in ancient times. There are twelve wooden figures on the upper part, holding wooden tablets of time. , when a certain time comes, they hold signs in the four directions of the door to tell the time. There are also wooden figures in the door using their fingers to carve numbers. At the four corners of the lower part of the lamp drain, there is a wooden figure holding a clock. , drums, cymbals, cymbals, bells are struck at the quarter, drums are struck at the second quarter, cymbals are struck at the third quarter, cymbals are struck at the fourth quarter, and these sounders also sound at the beginning of the hour and when the hour comes. The mechanisms that produce these actions are Hidden in the cupboard and driven with water, when the sheng sings, the peacocks will dance to the music. The scene is very vivid, and the sound of the sheng is endless and pleasant to the ears. During the banquet in the Yuan Palace, the mechanical sheng was the leader of the band, and the sound of the sheng made the crowd If the music is played together, and the sheng stops, all the music will stop.
Every day, Emperor Yuan Hui waited for the peacocks with seven lanterns in the bell tower to dance to the music, and he just climbed up from the dragon bed. Now it happened to be this time, and the sweet sound of the peacocks was heard constantly. Emperor Yuan Hui breathed a sigh of relief. He sat up from the dragon bed and accepted the arrangement of the eunuchs and maids who had been waiting on both sides of the dragon bed.
Pu Buhua, who was standing on the right side, glanced at the eunuch and maid behind him, and everyone understood.
Two palace maids came over with purple gold basins filled with potions and asked Emperor Yuan Hui to clean his hands. The eunuch on the side had already brought a purple gold basin with a diameter of two feet to him. Emperor Yuan Hui took the potion from the hands of the palace maids. , poured it into the mouth gently, purred twice, then spit it into the two-foot purple gold basin in the hands of the little eunuch, washed his face, and then took the comb hair. In the palace, the maiden who shaved the emperor's hair had the highest status. , commonly known as the housekeeper. After the hair is done and the emperor wears his crown, he changes to casual clothes and has breakfast.
When the emperor changed his clothes and came out, the palace staff first presented tea soup and various cakes and baits, so that the emperor could drink some tea and eat some snacks before the meal. After eating, the stewards waited in the middle hall to display the breakfast. Dinner At that time, music was played first, and the emperor entered the palace and sat facing south. The fine music played was "all the palace maids were orchestrated according to the ancient music house, and no one dared to enter with a solemn voice using obscene words." During breakfast, various dishes were displayed on the imperial table , "List the remaining ten feet."
After dressing up, Emperor Yuan Hui exhaled and walked out of the imperial dining room. Behind him, Pu Buhua hunched over and followed cautiously.
"Pu Aiqing, do you have something important to do today?" Emperor Yuan Hui squinted his eyes and looked at the flying bridge, remembering the extraordinary and seductive dance of the Demon Dancer last night. A smile appeared on Emperor Yuan Hui's lips.
"Reply to the Emperor? There is really an important event that requires His Majesty's presence today!" Pu Buhua saw the Emperor asking questions, stood behind him and made a speech to Emperor Yuan Hui's tall body, and responded respectfully.
"Oh... if it's something important, why don't Park Aiqing tell you directly?"
"Yes, Your Majesty?" Pu Buhua responded and said: "Today, His Majesty's personal bodyguard Xiao Yun and the bodyguard Zhao Huan of the seventh prince's house are competing for the position of Han Pioneer Officer...?"
"Oh, I almost forgot, there is such a thing?" Emperor Yuan Hui muttered to himself.
Seeing Emperor Yuan Hui's expression, Pu Buhua suppressed his voice and reminded carefully: "Your Majesty, all the ministers are outside the hall, waiting for your visit in person?"
"Oh, really?" Emperor Yuan Hui looked a little excited, with a proud look on his face. After thinking about it, he turned around and said, "In that case, I will join in the fun!"
"Yes, Your Majesty!" Pu Buhua responded, followed by two eunuchs, who hurried away.
****************************
Outside the Jinluan Palace, the officials had been eating and drinking for a long time, but the emperor still did not appear, and many people began to murmur.
One of the two officials sitting at the end of the hall whispered to the other official: "Hey, do you know? I heard that His Majesty practiced the dual cultivation method again last night?"
Another person shook his head and sighed: "Hey, the dignified Nine-Five-year-old has such no love for himself and indulges in sexual pleasure all day long. It has caused chaos in the world, bandits are everywhere, the people are in dire straits, and there are many complaints. If it weren't for the Prime Minister, I would have been in the Yuan Dynasty long ago.
Dead!
"Humph, all this is not Hama's fault. I heard that Hama introduced a lewd monk from Tubo in order to win His Majesty's trust. The lewd monk is quite good at dual cultivation. Since he entered the palace,
, His Majesty trained with the palace maids Sanbao Nu, Manjushri Nu and other sixteen people all day long to practice the "Sixteen Heavenly Demonic Dance" for entertainment. What is even more frightening is that the emperor himself, ten "Yina" and many women swallowed the food all day long.
Taking aphrodisiacs, in the name of cultivation, men and women had sex, and the emperor and his ministers covered themselves with a big quilt. The emperor also named his palace "Xie Lang Wu Gai", which means "nothing is hindered" in Chinese. Now, another edict was issued on
Xanadu
The construction of the Muqing Pavilion "extended hundreds of rooms and housed thousands of households, and women were taken to fill them as 'great joy.' It's already noon, and His Majesty the Emperor hasn't gotten up yet. It seems that he must have exerted too much energy last night."
Already...?"
The other person sighed but said nothing, but the look on his face was very sad.
At this moment, a voice was heard coming from the Jinluan Palace: "The Emperor has arrived...?" The voice was distant and long.
When the officials outside the Jinluan Hall heard the sound, they began to adjust their clothes one after another. Many people even stood up and adjusted their official hats. Outside the huge Jinluan Hall, the sound of clothes fluttering could be heard all of a sudden, which was not unusual.
Surrounded by a group of eunuchs and maids, Emperor Yuan Hui rushed out of the Jinluan Hall with pride, followed by more than a hundred personal guards. Many of them stood on two dragon chairs in the center of the Jinluan Hall, while the rest stood on the dragon chairs in the center of the Jinluan Hall.
The back row stood guard. Only a few people followed Emperor Yuan Hui to the dragon chair in the center outside the Jinluan Hall.
Emperor Yuan Hui's face is slightly pale, which adds a sense of discordant beauty to his body in his prime. He is already tall, wearing a purple gold crown with hair inlaid on his head, and two dragons holding two dragons to grab beads.
The forehead is smeared with gold, and the dragon robe on the body is decorated with the patterns of gold emperor star one, sun one, moon one, rising dragon four, reincarnation dragon four, mountain thirty-eight, fire forty-eight, flower insect forty-eight, tiger caterpillar forty-eight.
, very gorgeous.
He walked alone to the dragon chair in the center outside the Jinluan Palace. Guards behind him were guarding him on the left and right sides. More than a hundred people held round knives in their hands. He really looked like a king of a country.
"Long live my emperor, long live long live...?" All the officials on the scene bowed to the ground and waited for him to take his seat.
After Emperor Yuan Hui sat down, he weakly replied: "My dear friends, please sit down!"
Everyone thanked them again, then stood up and sat back to their seats. At this time, the master of ceremonies shouted, and the palaces on both sides of the Jinluan Palace heard the sound of jingling bells, and a group of palace maids wearing various costumes arrived.
He walked out of the banquet and walked back and forth in front of everyone's seats, pouring wine for everyone.
Emperor Hui of the Yuan Dynasty raised his glass and drank a cup, and said loudly: "The Han thief Zhang Shicheng dared to risk the disapproval of the world. He dared to claim that he was alone in Jiangsu and Zhejiang areas. He really overestimated his capabilities. Now the Prime Minister personally leads a large army to attack
"Come on, I believe that Zhang Shicheng, that thief, will never have another night to sleep peacefully. Today, I will offer my first glass of wine to the Prime Minister. I wish the Prime Minister a successful start and make the first contribution to the Yuan Dynasty's campaign against the Han traitors!"
"Okay... okay...?" There was a commotion in the crowd.
Tuotuo was overjoyed and hurriedly got up and drank a drink. Only Hama beside him snorted coldly with a sneer on his face.
