Bright Moon Breeze (107) (Bright Moon Breeze (107) in the capital...)
Bright Moon and Breeze(107)
There was a lot of noise in the capital, and it took a little delay for the news to reach the court: all the romantic places in various places were taken away in one pot! It was like a circus troupe, executing people on the spot, without mercy.
It was all done by the generals of the New Army!
As soon as these people went out, they dispersed. In some counties, only three or five people went there, and then the matter was settled. They went quietly and asked everything that needed to be asked. If they didn't move, they would be fine. If they moved, they would be like thunder.
!
In addition, the military reclamation agencies in various places have long received secret orders from military aircraft, and have done everything they need to do in the early stage. They even sent people to keep an eye on these people, for fear of any changes. As soon as the people above come up, they will be captured immediately.
What is pure is called clean.
Someone has to do the specific things, but the news comes back one after another, and it is inevitable for the court to discuss the matter.
Is this prostitute banned, or what?
Lin Yutong felt it was very magical. Is there anything to discuss about this thing?
But in fact, it is really worthy of discussion. This thing was so prosperous in the Ming Dynasty. It can be said that it has not made a good start since the founding of the country.
Lin Yutong doesn't know many things, but Fourth Master is a meticulous reader, so he knows!
At this moment, Lin Yutong heard the fourth master say, "... In the early years of Taizu, he opened the 'Fu Le Yuan' by the Qinhuai River..."
Lin Yutong thought he was hallucinating. This meant that Zhu Yuanzhang opened a brothel called Fule Yuan by the Qinhuai River shortly after the founding of the People's Republic of China. It must be a high-end place opened by the emperor.
The fourth master secretly poked Tongtong and reminded her to shut her mouth. Was she so surprised? While he was taking care of Tongtong, he kept talking and kept talking about the Zhu family's affairs, "... Officials were not allowed at that time.
When you enter, you are doing business with merchants..."
Tongtong cursed, this business was done so damn badly!
"Of course..." Fourth Master said back again, "Taizu's original intention had two purposes at that time. One was to show a peaceful and prosperous age. The other was to generate income."
Haha! Just setting up a brothel will bring prosperity to the world? Did Zhu Yuanzhang have some misunderstanding about the prosperity when he first became emperor?
However, it is really possible to generate income! A brothel does not have much tax revenue, but the emperor has opened a brothel, so no one else can open one! If there are too many brothels, won't the tax revenue come?
Tongtong cursed in his heart, listening to Fourth Master continue: "... Later, in the 27th year of Hongwu, he ordered the opening of Kyoto restaurants, and they built them one after another, which is the 16th floor of Chunhua Qiuyue that is still praised today.
Looking back now, I can see that although the place is in ruins, it was quite lively at that time. This was the place where envoys were received and gentry held banquets! And on this sixteenth floor, there were all official prostitutes!
"
Lin Yutong: "..." I want to complain, but I'm so full of MMP that I don't know where to start.
After saying so much, she understood what it meant! In other words, in the early Ming Dynasty, this thing was legal! The law said it was forbidden, but people banned officials but not the people.
Lin Yutong doesn't quite understand the logic behind this! For example, in the early Ming Dynasty, all kinds of industries were in desperate need of development! Especially in the world that was taken over from the Yuan Dynasty, you know what the people were like! Then you say,
The population is not large, people are poor, and natural disasters are constant. Even merchants, how much money do they have? Only big merchants can go to such a place to spend money. Big merchants have nothing to do? Spend all day in brothels? No.
It's possible, right? This kind of profession has great mobility! So, isn't the main consumer group of the brothel you opened still officials?
Failure to prohibit officials from engaging in prostitution is the same as failing to prohibit officials from corruption. No matter how harsh the laws are, it will be of no use!
It is almost inevitable that the emperor took the lead in developing this thing and the people followed suit.
This trend is like this. If you go up to Shuo, you can really catch up to that time.
She was still thinking about it when she heard the fourth master say again, "...when officials enter the sixteenth floor, it soon becomes a tacit agreement from top to bottom! So, Taizu issued banknotes to the officials. If
If you have a banquet, you can put it on the 16th floor..."
Lin Yutong: "..." Isn't this reimbursement? To stimulate consumption? If you do this, how can you stop this thing?
The fourth master sighed, "What you are going to say must be the policy of Taizu at the beginning of the founding of the country. But during the Xuanzong period, it was banned! Therefore, the ban on prostitution is not our first..."
Lin Yutong felt a little more comfortable, at least the emperor named Zhu Zhanji was more reliable and had done this in advance.
"The relocation of hundreds of thousands of prostitutes was not a big effort. After that, prostitution was banned several times... Within a few years, it became prosperous again!"
It is indeed a pity that Zhu Zhanji only reigned for ten years.
But when I look back, I wonder if this thing can be put to an end in just one hundred years of reign?
"It can't be eradicated!" the fourth master said, "This is like a poisonous weed. If you cut it off, there will be another one! Unless the prohibition of prostitution is made a common practice!"
This means that you are breaking the law! You will be arrested for a long time.
Just like those girls who set up their own business, or even those men who come out of the Nanfeng Pavilion, do they really suffer from all kinds of errands? Speaking of which, that kind of business is really the most labor-saving business. There is no guarantee that no one will
Return to your old job voluntarily! So what do you think of this?
There is a courtyard, and you can prevent it from opening a secret door? There is no way you can prevent it?!
What would you do with this?
Just because it can't be stopped, doesn't mean it should be legal! Wrong! The more it is like this, the more it must be banned! If caught, they will be punished severely! Especially those who stay in prostitution, the first time they are caught, they will be fined one or two! The second time they are caught
If you catch it, you will be fined two liang. If you catch it the third time, you will be fined four liang. The fourth time, it will be sixteen liang. The fifth time, it will be two hundred and fifty-six liang.
Not many people can pay this amount of money to the fifth time! Ninety-nine percent of people don’t have that much capital. What to do at this time? Go to labor camp! You will be given twenty taels of silver a year, what?
When the fine you owe is paid off, when will you be freed?
Once the accounts were settled like this, no one said anything! Because catching prostitutes can generate revenue for the Yamen, I'm afraid if the authorities don't call them arrests, people won't be happy!
Some people think that when the country was founded, brothels were opened for money, but now that brothels are banned, it seems that they are still for money.
As soon as this decree came out, Lin Yutong suddenly discovered that there were not many women who really needed to be accommodated by the court. Many of them were hired back home as concubines!
As if in the blink of an eye, those girls disappeared from the capital and went to the deep mansion.
Lin Yutong couldn't help but feel a little sad. The brothels were banned if they could, but for the time being, they really couldn't do anything about the concubine! There were also those women who opened the cage and gave her freedom. Among them, the real
How many people are happy? Their hesitation is deeper than in a brothel. Once a man extends an olive branch to them, they immediately follow him. Finding a decent family, even as a concubine, is a dream for them.
Come home!
Even the women in brothels from all over the country found their homes without waiting for the court to settle them. They followed them happily, and no one could stop them.
In fact, the Ming Dynasty Law has strict regulations in this regard. It stipulates: A concubine can be given to a childless woman at forty years old!
But this thing has never been implemented.
Some people have suggested that when people say that they are forty and have no children and have concubines, they should add the word "min" in front of them, which means: people are forty and have no children and are concubines.
But then some officials gave an explanation to the people, saying that the people, including officials, officials, and officials, all engaged in public commentaries.
In fact, except for the royal nobles, everyone else is considered a citizen.
But no matter how much we argue, I still have to have this concubine!
The law stipulates that if you violate this law: you will be whipped forty times!
Whipping is a life-threatening punishment, but beating someone with a piece of bamboo can do what to them?
The light punishment is one aspect, and the other aspect is that concubines come in various forms and cannot be checked! For example, the court said that they are not allowed to take concubines! Okay! There will definitely be no concubines in the next day! But there are always such things as girls.
!She is still a concubine in disguise.
So Lin Yutong just scratched his head with this thing, and this thing can't be banned for the time being.
There was nothing she could do, but Fourth Master, after receiving a tip from someone in the Ministry of Rites, he responded.
For example, the officials of the Ministry of Rites are still biased against the Yue Yuan. They mentioned this in the Zhezi, and also mentioned filling the harem and procreating heirs. The fourth master directly approved it: The Ming Dynasty rules say that a concubine can be born without a son at the age of 40!
The law does not say, "When a man is forty and has no children, he takes a concubine"!
Therefore, I plan to implement it!
As soon as this reply was issued, it was like a pot exploding. What does this mean, Your Majesty?
Before we could understand this scary meaning, Chengen Bolin Baowen suddenly asked himself to be punished in court! He said that after his original wife, Wang, passed away, he had a son and two daughters. According to the law, he could continue his marriage, but he could not take concubines!
At that time, I was worried about the young child and was afraid that my stepmother would be bad for the child, so I found a concubine and entered the house as a servant. But no matter what, it was against the law!
Since the new law has not yet come out, please ask the emperor to punish the ministers according to the existing Ming law!
The expressions of everyone in the court were indescribable, as if they were being dragged to pieces! The abbot was always shrinking and would not come out to speak! The emperor here said that he became a concubine at the age of 40 without a son, which meant that he was a concubine at age 40.
No one is allowed to enter the harem. Here he responded immediately. He was flogged forty times in court, and he didn’t care about the loss of face. Anyway, I was wrong. I violated the laws of the Ming Dynasty. Your Majesty, please punish me!
For the sake of the queen, this father-in-law is really shameless!
What's more, he is not only doing this because of the queen, isn't he trying to cooperate with the emperor? He follows the emperor step by step, and the Lin family doesn't look very shameless.
Then the emperor executed him on the spot and hit Lin Baowen on the back forty times with a piece of bamboo. It was the imperial guards in the palace who carried out the execution! Who really beats this thing? It sounds very loud, and there is probably no red mark at all.
Leave.
He admitted his mistake on the spot and accepted the punishment. The fourth master gave him another half-year salary as a warning to others!
But in the end, I said that although Mrs. Wen was a concubine, she had done her best to take care of the Lin family's heirs over the years. She praised her in all kinds of ways, allowed her to step into the family, and granted her the title of fifth-rank Yiren.
Everyone is happy!
The Lin family dealt with the illegal matter openly and did not say anything later. The emperor's refusal to accept concubines was also publicized. The only basis was: a concubine was born without a son at the age of 40.
With such a commotion, what should the others do? We line up to receive the penalty. What happens after we receive the penalty? Lin Baowen only has one concubine, and he took her after his original wife was gone. He was able to straighten the concubine because of her contribution to taking care of the children.
But what about them? What do they do with their concubines? Isn’t this a problem for people?
Da Ming Lu, Da Ming Lu, I never knew you were such a torturous thing!
