On the 28th of the first month of the sixth year of Dazhong Xiangfu, the Ministry of Rites wrote a letter, adding six titles of Shuyi, Shurong, Shunyi, Shunrong, Wanyi, and Wanrong, and from Yipin, it was above Zhaoyi.At the beginning of the Song Dynasty, following the old system of the Sui and Tang Dynasties, there were noble concubines, concubines Shu, concubines De, concubines Xian, Zhaoyi, Zhaorong, Zhaoai, Xiuyi, Xiurong, Xiumei, Chongyi, Chongrong, Chongai, The titles of concubines such as Jieyu, Meiren, and Cairen were omitted, while the old titles of Baolin, Yunu, and Cainu were omitted.In July of the second year of Zhenzong Jingde, Taiyi was set up again.In 1009, the second year of Dazhong Xiangfu, the title of "noble person" was set up again.Finally, with the addition of Guiyi and Concubine Chen set up by the Renzong Dynasty, it generally formed a foregone conclusion that there were concubines of the Song Dynasty.

In the same month, Zhenzong received a report from the general of Huangzhou, and hoped that the imperial court would send personnel to investigate the fact that the state officials had accepted bribes. Above the court, Zhenzong asked, "Masters, the general of Huangzhou has submitted a report, and many soldiers and people have reported it." The local state officials accepted bribes and bent the law for personal gain, which led to chaos in the security of Huangzhou, and the guards were afraid that the people would complain about it, so I asked the imperial court to send personnel to investigate, what do you guys do to deal with it?"

"Your Majesty!" said Nian Hao, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, "The Huangzhou state official has only been in office for half a year, and there is such an incident. It is hard for me to believe that this is true. I am afraid that someone will make a false accusation."

"False accusation?" Zhenzong said, "I don't think so. I think that the official has been in office for less than half a year. Who can be against him? What's more, this is the request of the guards, soldiers and people. I think there must be articles in it."

"Your Majesty's words are very true," Prime Minister Wang Dan said, "The state officials are the parents of the people of the state. If something like this happens after half a year in office, they must have a lot of problems. I believe that we should send people to investigate the authenticity and stabilize the people of the state." The heart of a soldier."

"That's what I mean, then, who should be sent to go?"

"Your Majesty," Nian Hao, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, said, "Even if the matter of the state official is true, it must not be as serious as the report. Just send a small official to go there, and there is no need to waste so much trouble."

"What the Ministry of Officials said is also reasonable, but after all, it involves state and county officials. Are you afraid that small officials will not be able to control it?"

"Your Majesty can send his close aides there. In this way, the official position does not need to be too high, and the state officials will not dare to do improper things to the imperial envoy."

"Oh? Anyone from the Ministry of Officials recommend it?"

"Your Majesty, you can send Zhong Hang, the deputy head of the internal servants."

"Zhong Hang? Well, it's possible, but..." Zhenzong thought for a while, "Is this okay?"

"Your Majesty, it's not impossible," Nian Hao said, "There was a precedent for sending out servants during the time of the late emperor."

"Your Majesty, I don't think so," De Fang said, "The precedents mentioned by the Ministry of War refer to Wang Ji'en, but the ancestors have taught that servants are not allowed to interfere in politics."

"What the emperor said is very true." Zhenzong nodded, "The ancestors did have instructions."

"Your Majesty" Nian Hao was a little unwilling, "But Wang Ji'en did do a lot of things. He went out to fight against the enemy, was rewarded by the late emperor, and became a close confidant of the late emperor. He made a lot of contributions to our Great Song Dynasty."
