    [1] "Night Mooring on the Maple River" by Zhang Ji.

    The horse seemed to be tired from walking, and he hesitated to move forward.  Wu Chen pulled it and walked straight forward.

    Ru Yan, who was riding on it, looked at Bu Luo Ren, and said: "Are you tired from walking without seeing the horse? It's been a day, and you won't let the horse rest for a while? Why doesn't a monk have any compassion at all!"

    Wu Chen didn't know her accent, but continued to walk forward, and casually recited Zhang Ji's "Night Mooring in the Maple River":

    "When the moon sets and the crows cry and the sky is full of frost,

    ? Jiang Feng Yuhuo vs Mianmian;

    ? Hanshan Temple outside Gusu City,

    The midnight bell to the passenger ship.  "

    Ruyan muttered: "What's the use of reciting poems? Horses don't understand."

    Wu Chen said: "The horse can't understand, but it's okay for the cow to understand!"

    "Little monk, how dare you scold me!"

    "Who scolded you?"

    "Didn't you mean to say 'playing the piano with the cow'!"

    "How is it 'playing the piano to the cow'."

    "Then what do you mean by reading this poem?"

    "What I mean is, we will reach Fenglingdu after walking a few more steps. Wouldn't it be great for us to find a hotel there, have a good night's sleep, and leave early tomorrow?"

    "Okay, how can it be bad! Anyway, I have to listen to you in everything. You can walk as you say, and we will rest wherever you say just take me and Madu to sell together.  , we can't do anything"

    "Hmph! You, who wants it? Don't spoil the price of the big white horse"

    Ruyan raised the whip and hit it, but it couldn't reach at all, but hit the big white horse's ear.

    The white horse shook its ears and let out a long hiss.

    Ruyan quickly stroked the mane of the big white horse, and said: "I'm sorry, big white horse, I didn't beat the 'donkey' enough, I hit you by mistake, don't be angry just hold on for a while, we will arrive at Fenglingdu soon  .When you arrive at Fenglingdu, I will book you the best inn and feed you the best food Whatever the donkey eats, your big white horse will eat"

    [2] Zhao Zizhen's Poem "Inscription Fengling Ferry"

    ? One water is north and south, and the central plains are self-sufficient;

    ? Yunshan connects Jin soil, smoke trees enter Qinchuan.

    The yellow dust rises in the setting sun, and the white birds sleep in the clear sand;

    I am in a hurry to win the loss, and I am in a hurry to kill the ferry boat.

    Fenglingdu is located at the corner of the east turn of the Yellow River. It is the transportation fortress of Shanxi, Shaanxi and Henan provinces, and crosses the boundaries of the three major regions of North China, Northwest China and Central China.  Since ancient times, Fenglingdu has been the largest ferry on the Yellow River; for thousands of years, it has been an important port of the Yellow River. I don¡¯t know how many people passed through here and entered the Qin and Jin Dynasties.

    There are more business travelers staying in Fenglingdu, so the business in the town is pretty good.  Although the appearance of the town is not as good as that of a big city, the shops on both sides of the small streets are well arranged, teahouses, restaurants, and hotels are also available.

    Ruyan and Wuchen stopped the horse at the door of an inn.

    There is a big lantern hanging above this store, with the words "Yuelai Inn" written on it.

    Wuchen helped Ruyan off the horse, but said: "They are all men, and I still need the help of the little monk."

    "You don't need to help me, I can get down slowly by myself."

    "You'd better get off quickly, hurry up and book the room, if it's late, there will be no room."

    "Why don't you decide?"

    "I'm a monk, it's not easy to stay in a hotel, I should go to a temple."

    "Is there a temple here? I'll go and live in a temple with you. Anyway, I've lived in Pujiu Temple for a long time, and I'm not used to staying in a hotel now."

    "This is a pier, how can there be a temple? Hurry up and make a reservation at the inn!" Seeing Ruyan walking towards the inn, Wu Chen urged, "Hey, just book a room."

    Ru Yan turned around in surprise, and asked, "Why, you want to sleep with me?"

    "what are you thinking!"

    "Then why book a room?"

    "Book a room to save money."

    "But I'm not used to sleeping with you."

    "No one sleeps with you! This room is all for you."

    "how about you?"

    "I need a 'pure heart', I need to find a place to continue my practice, and try my best to meet your requirements, Mr. Liu" After finishing speaking, he turned around and left.

    "Hey~, you can't leave me, I'm afraid to live alone!" Ruyan shouted towards Wuchen's back.

    "What are you afraid of, what are you doing now??¡®I, Master Dong, too.  "It can be seen that the word "Master" has spread among the people at this time.

    And the title of young master is the respectful title given by servants or servants to the master's heirs.  When the young master gets married and has children, he can be promoted to the master, and the original master is called the old master.

    During the Ming Dynasty, "Master" began to be associated with officials. Officials called "Master" were all high-ranking officials of the imperial court and local officials. Other officials could not be called "Master", but could only be called "Ye".

    In the Qing Dynasty, the scope of application of "Master" began to expand, and officials above the level of Jiuqing and Hanlin were upgraded from "Master" to "Grand Master". Does it sound very fanciful?

    What is more fanciful is that county magistrates and officials at the prefecture and county levels are called "Tai Lao Ye", and the term "County Tai Ye" that we often hear now comes from this.

    With the popularity of the word "Lord", the word "Ye" also began to become an abbreviation of respect in Beijing dialect, and titles such as "Kangxi Ye", "Qianlong Ye", "Si Ye" and "Ba Ye" began to appear.  Even in the teahouse, there is often a greeting from Xiaoer: "Master, drink tea!"

    (3) "Slave" can't shout randomly.

    The word "slave" originally came from the northern nation, called "slave".

    Since the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, "minion" has gradually become a derogatory term with a humble meaning.  "Book of Jin" has such a record: Ying doesn't use my words, she goes against herself, she is a real slave.  At this time, slave already means despicable, but it is not exactly the same as the later slave, because at this time slave mostly refers to incompetent people, rather than focusing on the relationship of slaves.

    It was about after the Yuan Dynasty that "minion" became a cheap term.  In the "Biography of Yang Lian" in the Ming Dynasty: "Lian scolded: Slave, the emperor called us What do you want to do?" At this time, "slave" seems to have become synonymous with eunuchs, and eunuchs are despised by scholar-bureaucrats, so over time "  "Slave" became a nickname.

    In the Qing Dynasty, the "slave" ushered in a "turn over".  In the early Qing Dynasty, although the word "slave" still had a degrading meaning, some people were quite proud to use it as a self-proclaimed term at that time.  At this time, not all Manchus called themselves slaves in front of the emperor, and not all Han people called themselves ministers, but to a certain extent, they were mixed. Some Manchus also called themselves ministers, and some Han people called themselves slaves.

    The phenomenon that the Manchus called slaves and the Han called ministers was not confirmed until the middle period of Qianlong.  In the 23rd year of Qianlong¡¯s reign, in order to maintain the old customs of Manchuria, Emperor Qianlong issued an order to unify the titles of Manchu and Han.  point.

    So far, the titles of slaves and ministers have been formally established.

    This situation lasted for more than a hundred years, until the second year of Xuantong (1910), when the imperial court was preparing for the establishment of a constitution, in order to "show the unity of the painting", it agreed that "in the memorial, both Manchu and Han should call themselves ministers, and they should not be used anymore.  "Slave" request.  But only two years later, the Qing Dynasty collapsed in a precarious situation.

    (4) Those flooded Qing Dynasty terms:

    1. The term concubine was coined in the TV series "Kangxi Dynasty", but it was widely used by later generations.

    2. The emperor did not call himself "I" all the time, and he only called himself "I" on important occasions and in writing.

    3. Most of the concubines in the harem call themselves concubines, but only a very small number of princes or favored princesses can call themselves "this palace", such as Princess Taiping.

    4. The term "Aijia" only exists in ancient literature, and it is not mentioned in official history.

    5. From the Han Dynasty to the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, ministers generally called the emperor "Your Majesty"; in the Tang Dynasty, they also called the emperor "sage" and "everyone"; in the Song Dynasty they were called "officials"; after Kublai Khan unified the Central Plains,  The survivors of the Southern Song Dynasty called Kublai Khan the emperor, and Kublai Khan called himself Zhen.  However, they only called themselves "Zhen" on formal occasions, and usually called themselves "I" and "Wu"; the Ming Dynasty still used "Your Majesty" to address the emperor on formal occasions, and privately called "Jin Shang".

    Generally speaking, in the feudal era, the titles of the Chinese, especially the self-proclaimed ones, became more and more humble with the evolution of dynasties.  In the last feudal dynasty, ordinary people can be said to "call everyone daddy".  However, this does not represent the norm in China's thousands of years of history.  And filming a dynasty's film and television works should reflect the social and spiritual outlook of a dynasty, otherwise, wouldn't the thousand-year history be filmed in the same way?  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
