Jinan is as chic as Jiangnan, and Quancheng has been a city of poetry since ancient times.
Jinan is a place of physical beauty, with a strong cultural tradition and a long history. However, it has also been a place of suffering that has been ravaged since Chongzhen.
In every place, there are always some famous families with profound foundations, which can also be called aristocratic families. In the Ming Dynasty, Jinan also had many famous families, and their characteristics were that their officials, subjects and learning were popular.
Officials, civil servants, and academics are often the trinity.
Shandong is the hometown of martial arts and culture. However, after the Qing army entered the customs, Shandong was the most accepting of the new dynasty's rule. This may also be due to the fact that Shandong was swept by the Qing twice during the Chongzhen period, and a large number of Shandong nobles were captured.
He went outside the customs and took refuge with the Tatars early on.
The Han ministers and ministers of the Tatar official department who first entered the customs were all Shandong people. They introduced each other, so that when they first entered the customs, there were the most Han ministers in Shandong in the DPRK, and celebrities from Qi and Lu had great influence in Kyoto.
Sun Zhixian, Wang Yong'ao, Xie Sheng and many other famous ministers.
In the first imperial examination held in the third year of Shunzhi, Shandong people not only won the first prize, but even occupied a quarter of the Jinshi share.
Black Dragon Pond.
According to legend, this was the ancestral residence of Qin Qiong's family, the door god of the Tang Dynasty. Suddenly, it collapsed one day and the underground spring gushes out, becoming a large spring named Black Dragon Spring. It has since become a scenic spot in Jinan.
The emperor specially came to Black Dragon Pond and ordered the construction of Qin Qiong Temple here to worship Qin Shubao, the door god with unparalleled loyalty and righteousness.
"I lead the Jinan Prefecture in four states and twenty-six counties. It is a famous grand prefecture, and it occupies the chief position among the six prefectures in Shandong." Governor Huang Zongxi told the emperor.
Zhu Yihai looked at the map and realized that Jinan Prefecture was indeed a bit too big. Just like the original Qingzhou Prefecture, it occupied an extremely large area.
"With Mount Tai as the boundary, Tai'an Prefecture was upgraded to a prefecture, and the four counties of Laiwu, Xintai, Feicheng, and Tai'an were included in Tai'an Prefecture. In addition, Dong'a and Yinping of Yanzhou Prefecture were included in Tai'an. Dongping Prefecture was changed to a county, and Tai'an Prefecture was also included.
, seven counties in total.”
"Then Wuding Prefecture northeast of Daqing River in Jinan was upgraded to the ten counties of Wuding Prefecture, Leling, Yangxin, Haifeng, Huimin, Shanghe, Lijin, Zhanhua, Binzhou, Qingcheng, and Putai, under the jurisdiction of Wuding Prefecture
."
Zhu Yihai drew two circles with his imperial brush, established two new prefectures, and divided seventeen counties from Jinan and Yanzhou prefectures.
The area of Jinan has shrunk by nearly half, but it still spans both banks of the Yellow River. On the south bank of the Yellow River are Licheng, Zhangqiu, Changqing, Qidong, Zouping, Xincheng, Zichuan, and Changshan counties; on the north bank of the Yellow River are Qihe, Yucheng,
The seven counties of Jiyang, Pingyuan, Linyi, Deping and Dezhou still have jurisdiction over 15 counties.
This spring city is located in the sun of Mount Tai, the sun of Guji River, the south of the Yellow River, and the bank of the Grand Canal. Its geographical location is very important.
During the Chongzhen period, the city was massacred by the Tatars, which greatly damaged the vitality of this famous city. After the Tatars entered the customs, they tormented Jinan for several years, leaving it damaged.
Fortunately, the Ming army did not experience any brutal siege this time, and captured the city in less than a month without even damaging the city.
Most people in Jinan escaped.
However, for many prominent families in Jinan, they are in an embarrassing situation at this time.
Because the Tatars entered Shandong a long time ago and took hundreds of thousands of people from Shandong twice to the outside world, many famous and wealthy families joined the Tatars early.
After the Tatars entered the customs, their performance was even more positive.
In the Tartar dynasty, Shandong people had a unique position, and Jinan Prefecture occupied many seats on the list of ministers.
If the dynasty were to change, Shandong, especially Jinan, would undoubtedly occupy an important position in the new dynasty. However, it was only the fourth year of Shunzhi. At the end of the third year of Shaotian in the Ming Dynasty, Emperor Shaotian restored Jinan.
This makes them embarrassed.
Many famous families are still serving as officials in Beijing, or working for Tatars in various places. Even in the first imperial examination held in the third year of Shunzhi, and the Enke exam in four years, Shandong accounted for a quarter of the Jinshi, with hundreds of graduates.
How many new scholars are there?
Now that Daming is back, do you think it's embarrassing or not?
The most famous family in Jinan City is the Zhu family in Licheng. In addition, there is the Wang family in Xincheng who had previously joined Zichuan. In addition, the Tian family in Dezhou and the Lu family in Dezhou were known as the four major families in Jinan Prefecture. They are all from the same family.
It is obvious that there have been many great scholars, many ministers, and many Jinshis in every family.
Behind the four major families are the Song family in Laiyang, the Zhao family in Yidu, the Kong family in Qufu, and the Yan family in Qufu, which are also famous families in Shandong.
"Shandong is a good place, the land of etiquette." Zhu Yihai said to the ministers.
Everyone naturally nodded in agreement to this statement, not only because there was Sage Kong in Shandong, but the emperor's family was also in Shandong. Although the emperor's ancestral home was Fengyang, King Lu's faction had been in Yanzhou for almost three hundred years.
The Prince of Lu's Palace has even been married to the Kong family and the Yan family of Qufu for generations.
Xun also smoked out culture.
The First Assistant of the Song Dynasty, Zhifu of the Song Dynasty, was also from Shandong. He was from Yizhou. He said proudly, "As of the Chongzhen Dynasty alone, Shandong had produced more than 1,600 Jinshi, second only to Zhejiang, Jiangxi, Nanzhi and Fujian in the country.
Ranked fifth in the country, but ranked first north of the Yangtze River, Licheng County alone produced 164 Jinshi."
Zhu Yihai said with a smile, "You haven't even counted the Tatars who took the exams. They took nearly a hundred people, and the number one candidates were all from Shandong. Enke also took dozens of people from Shandong, and the Tatars got three points.
One of them is from Shandong."
These words made all the Shandong ministers present feel deeply ashamed. This is not something to be proud of.
It is clear that Emperor Shaotian raised troops in the south of the Yangtze River and made great efforts to promote ZTE. However, the people of Shandong actively joined the Tatars. Not to mention people like Sun Zhixie who took the initiative to shave their heads and still occupied half of Shandong. How could this be worth it?
Something to be happy and proud of?
Compared with the Shao Tian Dynasty's Manchu and half eastern Zhejiang, it was really far behind.
In Zhejiang, especially the gentry and common people in eastern Zhejiang, when faced with the Tatars moving south, they revolted one after another. Whether they were scholars, officials, generals, beggars, or woodcutter, many of them committed suicide and sacrificed their lives for the country, and many raised troops to fight against the Qing Dynasty.
, there were more soldiers from eastern Zhejiang in the imperial camp.
It happens that Shandong, the hometown of Emperor Shaotian, is full of Tatars. Doesn’t that sound good?
"There are eighteen famous academies in Jinan Prefecture, among which there are Zhidao Academy, Luoyuan Academy, Jingxian Academy, Baixue Academy, and the four major academies in Licheng. However, when I opened courses in Jiangnan to obtain scholars, Shandong had the least number of Jinshi.
Yes, I also specially opened two rankings for the north and the south. In the first subject, I also increased the number of places and admitted thousands of Jinshi. As a result, the number of candidates who took the exam in Shandong was very small, and there were only a few who won the Jinshi. None of them came from the 18th National Congress of Jinan Prefecture.
From the academy.”
The emperor was already very dissatisfied in his words.
In addition to accompanying the ministers today, the emperor also specially summoned some representatives of prominent families in Jinan.
In addition to the Zhu family, the Sun family also came to Licheng. The Sun family originally moved to Licheng from Zhu Yihai's hometown, Pingyin County, Yanzhou, and relied on the imperial examination to raise their family in the mid-Ming Dynasty.
Sun Zuo was a Jinshi in the second year of Tianqi. He was a Jinshi in the second year of Tianqi. He was a member of the Military Preparation Council in Miyun.
.
Today, the person representing the Sun family of Sun Dazhuang is Sun Sixiao. Sun Jianzong's clan uncle also has the honor of being a civil servant. The Sun Dazhuang family has three Jinshi officials in Beijing, and even the officials are not young. This makes Sun Sixiao sit at the door, trembling and frightened.
Fortunately, Sun Guangsi was here to give him some peace of mind. Sun Guangsi was the successor of the Sun family in Pingdu, who was elected in the fifteenth year of Chongzhen. In the last years of Chongzhen, the Sun family suffered a disaster and almost all of them were destroyed. Sun Guangsi took refuge in Jinan, and the Sun family moved to Shandong.
The Sun family was a member of the same family and took in Sun Guangsi's family.
Although the two families were not the same family, Sun Sixiao still maintained the relationship and helped them make a living for themselves. After that, Sun Guangsi went south to Jiangsu and Zhejiang, where he joined the Lu Jianjun rebel army, and was later granted a Jinshi background. Now he is an official in the Etiquette Department of Jianyuan.
Give Shizhong, a fourth-grade official title.
He sat with his 'uncle' Sun Sixiao.
Next to him are the Zhangqiu Jiao family, the Xincheng Zhang family, the Xincheng Yi family, the Xincheng Geng family, as well as the Gao family, Zhang family, and Bi family from Zichuan, and others such as the Zouping Ximen Zhang family, Zouping Cheng family, and Zouping Bei family.
Men Zhang family, Deping Ge family, Pingyuan Zhao family, Pingyuan Dong family, Lingyuan Kang family and so on.
There are hundreds of well-known families in these places who came to Jinan. They are at least well-known in one county and have produced several Jinshi. Some members of the family have at least been a minister. Otherwise, they would not dare to say that they are well-known.
They have a common characteristic. There are many Jinshis in the family examinations. There are many officials in the family, and at least there are officials of the third rank or above. In addition, every family has produced some famous poets, calligraphers, painters, etc.
, another characteristic is that they are basically all local landowners.
Many are also engaged in industry and commerce, mining and smelting, etc.
However, although these people came here this time, although they were all officials, they were not the ones who are doing well as officials in various families nowadays, because those who were Jinshi and were good officials are now either in Beijing or working as officials in other places in the Tatars.
Woolen cloth.
So they were very frightened when they came.
For example, the Gao family in Zichuan, the Wang family in Bishi Xincheng, and the Li family in Zhangqiu were better off. At least they had already gained understanding from the emperor before, although they all suffered heavy bleeding.
Precisely because of their example, representatives from various families such as Sun Sixiao were frightened, but they also had some confidence in their hearts. They were here to kill pigs, bleed them and cut the meat. As long as the meat was cut properly, they should be able to pass the test.
Of course, the emperor wiped out Shandong so quickly, and especially the way he took Jinan was so impressive that none of them dared to look down upon him in the slightest.
Although this emperor was a fellow from Shandong, judging from some rumors, this emperor was very complicated and sometimes very kind. For example, he was especially kind to the poor people and Qiu Ba soldiers, but sometimes he was very rude to the gentry and powerful men.
But he was very measured in his actions, and he didn't say that he would die after being angered.
Zhu Yihai was very dissatisfied with these fellow villagers, but he stopped short of it. Many people from these families are still serving as officials in the Tatars, and he had no intention of liquidating them.
There will be no list of traitors and traitors, nor will homes be raided and liquidated.
After all, the areas involved are extremely wide. At this time, it is still necessary to distinguish between the main contradiction and the secondary contradiction. The main contradiction with the Tatars is the main contradiction, and the powerful Han people who have surrendered to the Tatars are at best internal secondary contradictions.
Of course, he will not condone and protect these families.
