图为演练弓术的大内侍卫。大内侍卫是个十分神秘的职业。影视剧中,这批人经常身穿黄马褂,跟随在皇帝、皇后身边。传闻中,这些大内高手个个武艺高深,能飞檐走壁。

图为三位带刀侍卫。大马金刀坐姿很霸气。在清朝,侍卫一共分成三种,即御前侍卫、乾清门侍卫、大内侍卫。老百姓统称为大内侍卫。一般来说,唯有八旗子弟中的勋贵才有资格成为大内侍卫。毕竟大内侍卫常常出入皇宫,地位显赫,俸禄也十分优厚。

图为守卫殿阁的大内侍卫。侍卫乃是武官,自然要弓马娴熟。要想成为侍卫,不但要出生清白,还要考察箭书与武艺。侍卫考试第一场考步射,必须三箭射中靶心。第二场考察刀剑,当众耍一套刀法或剑法。第三场考察力量,至少要将百斤石锁提起,并绕场一圈。

小兵的大檐帽彰显了他兵卒的身份。能在皇陵守卫的亲兵,那也不是寻常人。其实真正决定大内侍卫地位的,不是武功高低,而是家族背景势力。

有一种侍卫比较倒霉,那就是发配到守卫皇陵以及冷宫的侍卫。这些地方除了节庆之日,基本无人问津。图中小少爷的二郎腿翘得很美。

这位大内侍卫撩袍袖,负手而立,颇有几分一代宗师的架势。可惜背后宫殿长草,看来是个看守冷宫的大内侍卫。除非遇上一位跳出冷宫的娘娘,否则注定要一辈子落魄了。

相比大内侍卫,宫里的一些小太监们就空闲多了。在主子不需要伺候的时候就可以偷偷玩耍。
