Emperor Xianfeng's choice of concubines is a tradition, but why was it scolded by scholars?

Because the nun had been waiting for Emperor Xianfeng for a long time, and she was wearing a little thin clothes, she wanted to go back quickly, but at that time, everyone wouldn't let her go out, so she scolded Emperor Xianfeng angrily.

As we all know, the ancient draft is a very grand thing, just like the empresses in the palace, they all have to dress up and stand in a row, then go to see the king one by one, interview, and then answer the questions of the queen or queen mother, so as to leave a sign and become the concubines in the palace. However, many people don't know that women's studies must be chosen at different levels. Only women in Eight Banners Manchuria, whose age ranges from 14 to 17, can become female practitioners. Women must pass the initial examination, the second examination and finally the interview. In the initial test, the female xiu was received by the queen. The queen should first choose a woman with outstanding appearance, and the second test should be selected by the queen mother. The Empress Dowager often asks some profound questions, and excellent women leave their names so that when the female practitioner is received by the king, the Empress Dowager can recommend this woman. But in the draft of Emperor Xianfeng, a moth appeared. It was very cold that day, and there was a poor woman, so she wore very little. I saw her shivering in the wind, waiting for the call of Emperor Xianfeng, but there was no sign of Emperor Xianfeng. She couldn't help being very dissatisfied. After a while, Emperor Xianfeng appeared. At this time, she said loudly in front of Emperor Xianfeng. Are you embarrassed to keep us waiting for so long in such cold weather? Now the world is not peaceful, and other kings are choosing soldiers to go out. With all this ostentation and extravagance, you'd better choose a female teacher. Aren't you afraid of the destruction of your country? ? . Emperor Xianfeng was very shocked after listening to the words of Xiunv. He never expected that someone would insult him in the draft, but there were too many xiunv at that time, and he couldn't find a xiunv who scolded him anyway. Finally, it passed, but the story of this scholar scolding Emperor Xianfeng was recorded in Ci of Qing Palace.
