Grand Secretariat
In the south west and south east of the Outer Court are the halls of Military Eminence (H) and Literary Glory (J). The former was used at various times for the Emperor to receive ministers and hold court, and later housed the Palace's own printing house. The latter was used for ceremonial lectures by highly regarded Confucian scholars, and later became the office of the Grand Secretariat. A copy of the "Siku Quanshu" was stored there. To the north-east are the Southern Three Places () (K), which was the residence of the Crown Prince.
