Does anyone know of any books (ideally in Chinese) explaining how the imperial court and government worked in detail?

I have a cursory understanding from some history surveys and from Chinese tv shows, but I'd like more details about how people were supposed to act, who had what titles, that sort of thing. I'm currently reading a book on the evolution of clothing in China, but I'd like more detail on what the court itself look liked. And if there are any books that get into the nitty gritty of how the imperial government actually worked, that'd be awesome.
