										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>In &#8216;Journey to the West&#8217;, Ngo Thua An uses this story to satirize the contemporary ruling class that doesn&#8217;t know how to use people.</strong><br />
<span id="more-23304"></span> From the moment he learned the bravery of the seven decades and the miraculous powers of incarnation from the Bodhi Patriarch, he robbed the &#8220;Ru Y Kim Co Bang&#8221; of the Dong Hai Long King, and made a big mess of Sam La Dien, self-corrected the book of life and death, causing the Jade Emperor to panic.</p>
<p> Jade Emperor then followed the advice of Thai Bach Kim Tinh, sent a holy order, conferred Ton Ngo Khong the title of &#8220;Bot Ma On&#8221;, invited the King to come to Thien Cung, hoping to use this to bind the US. Monkey King. In the ancient Chinese fairy genealogy, including the officials of the gods, there are many things that are made up of imagination &#8211; the world does not have this official. Although <em> Journey to the west</em> is a mythological novel, the duties of the official are thus fictitious, there are many positions borrowed using the mandarin of the Ming Dynasty. &#8220;Turn Ma On&#8221; is not without reason, so in history there is an official &#8220;Boat Ma On&#8221; or not? During the Ming Dynasty, there was the position of Ngu Ma Giam, starting from the year of Hong Vo &#8211; Thai To Chu Nguyen Chuong, the deacons were all in charge of the eunuchs. The eunuchs as Ngu Ma Giam, the official must be the fourth grade, those who belong to the fourth or fifth grade are not selected. But if they don&#8217;t take good care of the horse, let the horse die, they will be punished very severely. Just like in <em> Journey to the west</em> In heaven, the eunuchs Ngu Ma Giam used to say: “If a horse is weak and weak, it will be punished. If the horse is injured, it will be compensated and questioned.&#8221; There was an official Ngu Ma of the Ming dynasty called Thai tu tu, starting in March 1371, the fourth year of Hong Vo, the main position was called Thai bo tu khanh, the secondary position was called Thieu khanh. <img fifu-featured="1" decoding="async" loading="lazy" src="https://photo-baomoi.zadn.vn/w700_r1/2021_06_15_119_39195119/715a3b2d356fdc31857e.jpg" width="625" height="527"> The Marquis at that time was called &#8220;Ton Thai Tu Tu&#8221;. Why is it called &#8220;Turn on Code On&#8221;? Don&#8217;t say it&#8217;s the Ming Dynasty, all the mandarins of other dynasties don&#8217;t have a position called &#8220;Bot Ma On&#8221;. According to a record of ancient monsters, during the time of Tong Jin, the horse of the Trieu country suddenly fell dead, someone used an animal similar to a monkey (ape) to save them. Therefore, later people often locked a monkey in a stable and thought that by doing so, the horse would not be infected with plague. Traditional Chinese medicine also has a similar view of this. For example, books <em> Sacrifice Essential Art</em> by Jia Tu Hiep, who lived in Northern Wei, wrote: &#8220;Usually forcing the maid to go to the stables, it can prevent the horse from panicking, and also ward off evil, and cure all diseases.&#8221; In the Ming Dynasty, Ly Thoi Tran, in the draft outline, it was also mentioned that &#8220;The female monkey kept in the stable can help the horse avoid plague&#8221;. “Turn Ma On” (transliteration: Bi Ma Wen = Turn on code on) and “Tí Ma On” (transliterated: Bi Ma Wen = Ti Ma On) are homonyms with different meanings. So in <em> Journey to the west</em> Emperor Ngoc of Thien Cung chose a relatively beautiful official named &#8220;Bot Ma On&#8221; to let Ton Hau Vuong take over. Obviously, &#8220;Boat Ma On&#8221; is just another homonym with the same meaning as Ti Ma On. In the work <em> Journey to the west</em> By author Ngo Thua An, he gave the male breed Ton Hou a very strange nickname, which is certainly a very humorous description. Under his pen, &#8220;Bot Ma On&#8221; was directed by Emperor Jade Emperor himself. This is a poignant satire of the emperor in heaven and the emperor on earth. Their way of domination, if not concealment, is deceit. The Jade Emperor let the Hou King act as &#8220;Boat Ma Wen&#8221;, just one of the many examples of deception and hiding. Later, Sun Wukong learned the truth from someone else&#8217;s mouth. Bu Ma Wen is not only the smallest official but also &#8220;unofficial&#8221; among the officials. Therefore, Sun Wukong suddenly became angry, gritted his teeth and rolled his eyes, saying: &#8220;Dare to despise old Ton, old Ton I live in Hoa Qua Son, claiming to be King and claiming to be Patriarch, but dare to trick me into going to heaven to raise horses? Horse-keepers are just juniors, low-class people, why should it be my turn? He did not do! He didn&#8217;t do it!&#8221;. So, Ton Ngo Khong shouted, broke the koan, beat the Heaven Gate, and returned to Hoa Qua Son. The monkeys came to meet the Hou, and they were also angry and said, &#8220;The king is the king in this heavenly paradise, so respected and happy, why do you want to be a groom for people?&#8221; If you discuss with Sun Wukong&#8217;s bravery, you can&#8217;t be as majestic as the position of Marshal Thien Bong of Tru Bat Gioi, and you can&#8217;t call it Sa Tang&#8217;s official Quan Liem General, no wonder the Marquis is angry. . Moreover, in this story, Ton Ngo Khong shows a very strong self-esteem. When we went to get the scriptures, we still hated that other people called us &#8220;Boat Ma On&#8221;. If there is any goblin who does not know or deliberately rubs salt into the old wound, it will certainly be avenged by the monkey twice by destroying the entire lair. Work <em> Journey to the west</em> showed a very clear social meaning. Ngo Thua An was the one who understood it best and used this story to satirize the contemporary ruling class that did not know how to use people. Ngo Thua An was once a &#8220;famous&#8221; writer, but it was not until he was over 40 years old that he got the title of Tue Cong born, more than 60 years old, he was allowed to do Truong Hung district. Ngo Thua An borrowed the story of Ton Ngo Khong treason with the implication for his thoughts, and also wanted to regain some justice for all the amateurs in the world who had no time to study but did not meet the time.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Up to now, the image of palace maidens appearing by the red wall at the Forbidden City during the 1992 storm has not been explained.</strong><br />
<span id="more-19405"></span> The Imperial Palace of Beijing, also known as the Forbidden City, was the imperial palace of the Ming and Qing dynasties in Chinese history. This is the largest and most complete preserved palace architectural complex in the world.</p>
<p> Since its construction to the present, dozens of emperors have lived in the Forbidden City, leaving behind countless historical stories that are both interesting and scary. Especially the spooky mysteries surrounding this place. Although it is just a word of mouth, unverified and unanswered, it also makes the public extremely excited and curious. <img decoding="async" loading="lazy" src="https://photo-baomoi.zadn.vn/w700_r1/2021_05_25_365_38961319/8fd7b55fa01d4943100c.jpg" width="625" height="351"> <em> Inside the Forbidden City, there are always many mysteries</em> In 1992, a group of tourists visiting the Forbidden City saw the image of a group of palace maids dressed in ancient costumes, lining up to walk in the rain, causing everyone to panic. Witnessing this, some people in the tour group, after regaining their senses, used their cameras to capture the strange scene. Before this mysterious event, there were some scientists who made their own statements, but not many people recognized them. After the above story was widely spread, many people wondered why only these guests witnessed the image of the palace maids. After a while, some scientists explained that perhaps the red walls at the Imperial Palace contain Fe3O4 (iron oxide) and this is the cause of this phenomenon. Specifically, the camera of the delegation contains iron oxide and thanks to this component, when an electric current flows through, the camera can record images of the bows. The researchers also believe that electricity from lightning can travel through red walls, turning it into a &#8220;giant camera&#8221;. <img decoding="async" loading="lazy" class="lazy-img" src="https://photo-baomoi.zadn.vn/w700_r1/2021_05_25_365_38961319/c835cdbdd8ff31a168ee.jpg" width="625" height="456"> <em> Or like the story in the royal garden, there are often warm female voices during the day and pitiful cries at night</em> Accordingly, it is possible that more than 100 years ago, the group of palace maidens also walked in this area in the middle of a storm. It was the strong lightning in the rain and the red wall that acted as a camera, capturing this scene. After more than 100 years, during the same rain in 1992, the &#8220;giant camera&#8221; once again happened to work. However, it does not record the image as before, but this time it emits the image. Facing this judgment, some architects have protested because the red wall in the Forbidden City has been painted and repaired many times, so if there is really iron oxide, it has been covered for a long time and cannot be created. a &#8220;giant camera&#8221; as scientists put it. However, some old people who lived in the Forbidden City in the past believe that this place is a &#8220;park&#8221; of spirits. In the old feudal times, palace maids and eunuchs were often pushed into a well or beaten to death in a secluded corner. And perhaps because of their sudden death, they are still lingering in this world. In the book &#8220;Folk legends of old Beijing&#8221; is recorded the story of an elderly eunuch about an incident he witnessed in the past, when the Qing dynasty had not yet ended. He said: &#8220;It was an extremely hot night, and I and some other eunuchs returned to their accommodation to rest after completing their assigned tasks. At that time, I went last. Suddenly, I felt Someone tapped me on the shoulder from behind. But when I looked back, I didn&#8217;t see anyone.&#8221; <img decoding="async" loading="lazy" class="lazy-img" src="https://photo-baomoi.zadn.vn/w700_r1/2021_05_25_365_38961319/414045c8508ab9d4e09b.jpg" width="625" height="351"> <em> Many thrilling stories have created the veil of mystery of this ancient place.</em> The old eunuch emphasized his fear, revealing: &#8220;I was so scared inside, but I could only keep walking. Then someone tapped me on the shoulder again. I still thought it was the person. But when I turned to look back, I only saw a palace maid without legs, floating in the air.&#8221; &#8220;At that time, because I was so scared, I screamed. An elderly eunuch later scolded me many times, he said these ghosts are not to blame. Because they only used to go out late at night for a walk. comfort, not arbitrarily harming anyone.&#8221; Although there are many conflicting opinions on this issue, so far, no one has been able to give an explanation for this mysterious event. Therefore, the image of the palace maidens walking in the rain in 1992 is forever a mystery.

The concubines who were not favored by the emperor or could not bear children, after the death of the emperor, would spend the rest of their lives alone in the palace or in the emperor&#8217;s mausoleum until the end of their lives, then they would be buried around them. around the mausoleum. Often the Chinese emperors die due to heavy burdens of hardship, then their beautiful women still have a lot of &#8220;inventory&#8221;, most of which are very young, only about 18, 20 years old. However, according to the regulations, both, their later lives will only live to worship their husbands and are not allowed to marry other husbands. <img decoding="async" loading="lazy" class="lazy-img" src="https://photo-baomoi.zadn.vn/w700_r1/2021_05_27_365_38979882/db60e1aaf7e81eb647f9.jpg" width="625" height="451"> <em> The palace is considered the &#8220;hell on earth&#8221; of the old palace maidens</em> After the death of the emperor, the palace maids will be pushed into the forbidden palace for widows, and the young people will be herded into the palace to live to worship their husbands. Here, the palace maids were only allowed to go in and out, read books and then recite poems, or watch the moon and enjoy the moon with the maids and eunuchs. This form of confinement makes the mood of these concubines and maidens often melancholy, depressed, desperate, sleepless, leading to many diseases. Everywhere they live is moldy, full of ash. Most of the concubines entering the palace are not willing to volunteer, they complain to the heavens, constantly screaming, will gradually go crazy and commit suicide, most of them will not have a good ending. <img decoding="async" loading="lazy" class="lazy-img" src="https://photo-baomoi.zadn.vn/w700_r1/2021_05_27_365_38979882/a0a4986e8e2c67723e3d.jpg" width="625" height="438"> <em> Originally considered a place for mental torture, the palace was actually a place to relieve the guilty palace maids</em> What the concubines go through will leave traces in the palace, from scratches on the wall, blood stains on the door, torn window frames, ramshackle tables and chairs that are out of shape&#8230; This makes it easy to feel fear, chills The palace is located in a remote place, few people visit, the Emperor and Empress never set foot here. It is also a place to be punished by concubines, so there is no chance to preserve and repair it. Under the destructive force of time, gradually the palace will also be worn down, from wood to weak thin walls, and finally to the stone structure frame. During the Guangxu Dynasty of the Qing Dynasty, Emperor Guangxu&#8217;s beloved Tran Phi was imprisoned by Empress Dowager Tu Xi in the northern room of the Canh Ky, and then the imperial consort was forced to jump into the well and die. During the Ming Dynasty, the Qianxi Palace to the west of Ngu Hoa Vien was used as the imperial palace. Khach Thi was the nanny of Emperor Minh Hy Tong &#8211; Chu Du Hieu. Khach Thi colluded with the eunuch Wei Trung Hien and held a lot of power in the palace. All those who did not like Khac Thi were harmed. As Truong Du Phi had a conversation with Khach Thi, she held hatred in her heart and put a bad word in front of Emperor Hy Tong, saying that the child that Truong Du Phi carried in her was not the emperor&#8217;s flesh and blood. After listening to this, Hy Tong sent Truong Du Phi to the imperial palace in the position of Ngu Hoa Vien of the Qing Dynasty. Guest Thi also did not allow people to bring enough food, causing Truong Du Phi to starve to death in the palace. Thanh Phi, another concubine of Hy Tong, had a kind heart and told the emperor Truong Du Phi&#8217;s tragic story. Khach Thi learned that she also faked the emperor&#8217;s edict and imprisoned Thanh Phi in the palace west of Ngu Hoa Vien. Thanh Phi foresaw this scene and hid food, so he escaped from starvation. After that, some concubines were also detained here. During the reign of Emperor Minh Hien Tong, Empress Ly Muc Ky was also imprisoned in the palace. The special thing is that a future emperor was born here. At that time, Van Quy Phi was favored by Emperor Hien Tong and did not like others to approach him. Those who gave birth to the emperor&#8217;s children and even the pregnant Queen Hieu Mu were also brought into the palace. The empress gave birth to Chu Huu Duong and later became Emperor Minh Hieu Tong. With the help of many eunuchs and court ladies, Chu Huu Duong lived in the palace until the age of 6, when he was allowed to enter the palace to receive his father. In addition, a researcher once mentioned &#8220;An Lac Duong&#8221;, also a leader. Women who are guilty or old and sick are brought here. <img decoding="async" loading="lazy" class="lazy-img" src="https://photo-baomoi.zadn.vn/w700_r1/2021_05_27_365_38979882/14bf12750437ed69b426.jpg" width="625" height="786"> <em> His thrilling stories are still a mystery to this day</em> This place was originally used to imprison concubines, even witnessed many deaths of disgraced concubines. Therefore, since ancient times, there have been many thrilling and terrifying anecdotes surrounding the palace. There are even many people who have said that they have seen women wearing white clothes with hair tied in the style of the Qing dynasty, crying bitterly and tragically. Is the fact that the palace is not open to visitors also related to spiritual reasons as many people still say? Up to now, the Forbidden City is nearly 600 years old. Every year, this place serves tens of millions of tourists from all over the world. However, the palace at the Forbidden City is still a &#8216;do not approach&#8217; place. In fact, people only know about the palace through history books and movies.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>In ancient Chinese history, the emperors after Qin Shi Huang (259 &#8211; 210 BC) and Han Wudi (156 &#8211; 87 BC) both owned about 3,000 beautiful women. Living among the wonderful beauties, each with their own&#8230;</strong><br />
<span id="more-16539"></span> Living among the wonderful beauties, each with their own looks, the emperor could not help but have a headache about how to arrange and select people to spend the night.</p>
<p> Legend has it that Tan Vu Emperor Sima Viem (263-290) had countless concubines and beauties. Every night, they didn&#8217;t know what to do, ie with whom. He invented a sheep cart and sat on it himself, letting the sheep drag him around the palaces of his concubine. The car stops in front of the palace gate, the emperor will spend the night there. <img decoding="async" loading="lazy" src="https://photo-baomoi.zadn.vn/w700_r1/2021_05_18_180_38875565/39c191a688e461ba38f5.jpg" width="625" height="347"> Cards with the names of the concubines for the king to choose the palace. The famous wealthy emperor Duong Huyen Tong Ly Long Co (285 – 762) used another method, he arranged for his concubines to serve him in turn. Whenever emotions ran high, suddenly excited to think of something new, the king called every day a group of concubines into the palace, letting them roll the dice. The person who rolls the best dice will stay in the service of the emperor. Therefore, many officials in the palace often secretly call the dice <em> &#8220;the matchmaker of the chisel&#8221;.</em> Diameter Tong Ly Tram (809 &#8211; 826) also invented<em> &#8220;goodbye style&#8221;</em> , is the arrow that decides who the king sleeps with tonight. He ordered the user to bend the bamboo bark into a bow, take the paper folded into an arrow, the paper will be impregnated with musk. After calling the concubines, Duong Huyen Tong will shoot a single arrow. Those who hit the arrow will be imbued with this fragrance and spend a beautiful spring night with the king. Until the Qing Dynasty (1644-1912), the king&#8217;s regulation <em> “lottery” c</em> The concubine meeting before each night of marriage became a clear, regular and relatively strict regime. The apparatus that governs the nightlife of the emperor in the harem is called<strong> <em> “Honorable Room”</em> </strong> , the person in charge with the highest authority is the eunuch Kinh vien, who is responsible for arranging and recording the sexual life of the emperor and concubine. When the emperor and the queen spent the night together, this eunuch was forced to clearly and detailed records of the day, month, and year as evidence of later conception. The royal concubine and the queen are not the same, each concubine favored by the king has a green visitation card, the eunuch Kinh vien will bring from one to several dozen visit cards with the concubine&#8217;s name on a large silver tray, offering to the emperor for dinner. Waiting for the king to finish eating, the eunuch will kneel on the ground, waiting for the emperor<em> &#8220;lottery&#8221;</em> . At that time, the king will draw a lot and place it on a silver tray. The concubine whose name is engraved on it will be able to spend the night with the emperor. After retreating, the eunuch Kinh will inform the concubine to take a fragrant bath and do all the necessary preparations. When the emperor goes to bed, this eunuch will take off all his clothes and wrap a feather around the concubine, then carry him into the palace of the emperor. This is a safe way to prevent someone from hiding a weapon in their body and bringing it to the palace. After bringing the concubine in, the eunuch Jing will retreat to guard with a few other eunuchs. At the end of the allotted time, the eunuch will shout<em> “Time is up”</em> If the emperor does not answer, he will call again, repeat three times, must carry the other concubine back. At the same time, the eunuch eunuch would still fully record the day, month, and year as evidence of later conception. Pregnancy or not has a great influence on the high and low position of the concubines in the future. <img decoding="async" loading="lazy" class="lazy-img" src="https://photo-baomoi.zadn.vn/w700_r1/2021_05_18_180_38875565/30749b1382516b0f3240.jpg" width="625" height="383"> In terms of expression, the emperor decides on his own nightlife, but the specific steps range from arranging the location of the visit card, the preparation work, escorting the concubine to mastering the time, keeping records, and Supervisors can use tricks to take advantage of loopholes. The concubines, if they offend the eunuch, are extremely unlucky, so they always try to flatter and bribe this eunuch. Even though the Emperor holds the power to kill and kill, he still has to make some concessions to the eunuch, Respectfully, I hope they<em> &#8220;Hold up high and beat softly&#8221;</em> with its nightlife. The reason for the regime<em> &#8220;lottery&#8221;</em> This was maintained because the Qing emperor also considered it possible to clearly check and verify the bloodline of the princes and princesses, which was very important in deciding the selection of a successor. It can be seen that the &#8220;lottery&#8221; mode to choose non-discrimination is the product of the insatiable adultery of ancient Chinese kings. The non-gods have become toys to solve the emperor&#8217;s physiological needs and breeding tools, but in their eyes, this is a lifetime opportunity that is hard to get. This clearly shows the brutality to the extreme of the old feudal system.</p>
