The ranking of officials in the imperial court was determined according to their official positions in ancient times. In ancient times, when officials went to court, the emperor sat facing south, while the officials sat facing north on the left and right sides. The ancients regarded the right side as a noble position, so important officials usually sat on the right side of the emperor, while lower officials sat on the left. In addition, according to the structure of ancient buildings, the hall was usually long from north to south and narrow from east to west. Therefore, when sitting in the hall, the south was respected.
