Chapter 618: The order to shave the hair is issued.
The wind is like a knife, rolling snowflakes from the bitter cold land of the extreme north, as if it is an invisible blade, sweeping across the North China Plain, slaughtering all living beings on this land. The pen %fun %pavilion www.biquge.info soon it will be thousands of miles of snow, covering everything in heaven and earth with a layer of silver.
However, the prince and grandson can naturally enjoy the snow scene with the red charcoal red furnace, and the small people of Shengdou are struggling to survive.
However, another voice echoed in the wind and snow, which made all the state capitals on the North China Plain tremble.
The fast horses that came from the capital brought the edict issued by Dorgon to the officials and gentry everywhere.
Shaving order.
The time limit in the edict was extremely strict, "the limit of ten days inside and outside the capital; Directly subordinate to the provinces and localities, from the ministry to the day, also limited to ten days, as far as possible to shave hair"; At the same time, it is declared: "Those who follow are the people of our country; Those who hesitate are the same as those who disobey fate. In other words, whether to shave or not is the boundary between friend and foe; Hence two thrilling slogans: "Keep your head without hair, keep your hair without your head." ”
At the same time as the shaving order, Dolgon gave instructions on the Tobu manuscript and made the will of the world clear. From the official document to the day, all localities paid money and grain taxes in accordance with the tax system and preferential exemption rules during the Wanli period.
Tax reform, to protect the interests of the local officials and gentry, and to gain their full support, was the idea that Dolgon had made up his mind after meeting with Wang Hongzuo. Otherwise, this tax reform would not have been carried out so vigorously, to be precise, the restoration of the old system.
And the shaving order is a means to force those officials and gentry to stand in line.
This method came from the inscription book in the regent's palace that day.
At this time, the Qing soldiers had just entered the customs, and their clothes, shoes and hats were still along the Ming system; The subordinates of the previous dynasty still tied their hair at the top of their heads, buckled it with a hairpin, and added "Jinxian Crown"; He still wears a long-sleeved robe, and his robes are still birds and animals. Above the imperial court, there is a class of officials of the Eight Banners with a rat tail of money, and a class of officials from the well-dressed Han people, with different costumes, clear paths, and nothing to do with each other; Unexpectedly, there was a shameless Shandong man who came up with a trick.
This person's name is Sun Zhiqi, a native of Zichuan, Shandong. It was originally a Jinshi of the Ming Dynasty; In order to seek great wealth and flatter the new master, he first shaved his hair and changed it into a full costume. Hanban saw that he was dressed differently, and he was ashamed to be with him, and pushed him to the full class; The whole class saw that he was a false flag man and disdained to be in the same column with him. Pushing back and forth like this, it has become the saying "dog ignores". Sun Zhiqi is ashamed and angry, aren't you all kinds of squeezing me and looking down on me? I let you shave your hair as much as I do! So, he made a note and said: "Your Majesty will calm China, and everything will be new; And the system of dressing and bundling is still the same. This is His Majesty from China, and non-China from His Majesty. ”
Dol Yuan originally wanted these demoted officials in the court and the gentry officials in various places to put an end to the idea of continuing to hook up with the Ming Dynasty court in Nanjing, so as not to let these people continue to bet on both ends. But for a while, I didn't think of any suitable means. Even if I thought of it, I was worried that there would be great resistance from all sides, and it was inconvenient to speak, so Sun Zhiqi happened to have this performance, and was greatly admired: "I can't imagine that among the ministers, there are still people who can say such things!" So he gave the edict to cut his hair.
The shaving order and the clerical order to reinstate the Wanli preferential exemption rules arrived in various places at the same time, and a multiple-choice question with a simple answer was placed in front of the local officials and gentry.
If you shave your hair and change your clothes, you can continue to enjoy the preferential conditions of exemption from money and grain taxes according to the old system in the Wanli period. It's not easy to obey if you don't shave your head, hehe, according to the implementation rules of the shaving order, not only can you not save your life, but even the silver in the cellar, the house at home, the wife in the house, and the bitch raised outside have to change owners.
Shave! Why not shave!?
The officials and gentry happily shaved off the three thousand troubles on their heads, but among the ordinary people, those who had never received the grace of the dynasty and had not enjoyed the grace of the rain and dew emperor were quite ignorant of current affairs and did not know how to advance or retreat, so they actually rose up and resisted, or beat the shaver sent by the government and smashed the head shaving pick. Or run away with your family.
It's worth it!? The so-called hair without hair, head without hair! As a result, under the vigorous and resolute action of the shaving order, bright blood flowers bloomed in the snowy fields of the North China Plain. Everywhere on the city's heads, dozens and hundreds of human heads were hung. It is used to deter those fools who refuse to respond to the weather and do not know the times.
Most of the officials and gentry in various parts of Gyeonggi, Beizhili, Shanxi and other places are handsome and well-versed in current affairs. It didn't take long for me to complete the process of shaving my hair. Not only did he complete the shaving of his hair and make it easy to wear, but also under the grace of the imperial court, the collection of money and grain was also quite easy. In the past, the money and grain taxes that had been in arrears for a long time and were not collected in full were also completed in full for the first time.
Not only did the gentry in the jurisdiction of the Qing army immediately stand in line, completely throwing themselves into the warm and generous embrace of the Qing army, enjoying various political and economic privileges. The news of the Qing court's respect for teachers and reverence for Confucianism also quickly blew into Shandong, Henan, and even Jiangnan with the north wind.
Hearing such good news, the officials and gentry suddenly felt that what came from the north was not a cold and biting wind and snow, but an intoxicating spring breeze! Just removing a few hairs from your head can get so many benefits. The officials and gentry in Henan, Shandong, and Jiangnan are looking forward to Wang Shi going south as soon as possible to save the "people" from fire and water!
Historically, after the shaving ban was issued, it was quickly spread everywhere. Even the Yan Sheng Gong of Qufu did so.
The magistrate of Queli, according to the order, must be served by the Kong family, the county of Qufu at that time was called Kong Wenxuan, especially for a twist: "The son of the minister's family, the holy prince Kong Yuanzhi, has led the fourth generation of descendants, told the ancestral temple, and all obeyed the order to shave their hair." But reciting the saints of the first is the sect of ceremonies; Yan, Zeng, and Meng Sanxian rose and froze. The great rites, do not want to be in the crown, the first saint of the chapter is in the fold, the descendants of the generations to keep it, is to the Han Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty, although the system has gains and losses, the sole minister family system, three thousand years or change. Once it is changed now, I am afraid that the emperor's canon of respecting Confucianism and Taoism will not be prepared, whether it should be accumulated, so as to restore the clothes of the ancestors and promote the holy judgment. This article is very elegantly done, and it is also very euphemistic, one says that the clothes have not changed for three thousand years, and it is not intended to rebel against the new dynasty; Furthermore, it is stated that he should first comply with the merit order, and then ask for instructions on whether he should accumulate hair? It's just that the phrase "to restore the clothes of the ancestors" is just a taboo, so Kong Wenzhen touched a big nail and got the order: "Shaving hair is strict, and there will be no forgiveness for violators." Kong Wenxuan begged to accumulate hair, and he had already committed the rule of unforgiveness. Pray that the saints will not die. Moreover, Confucius is right at the time, it seems that this is against the system, there is a way to carry Yizu in the middle of the time, and he will never be used for dismissal. ”
Of course, the superficial half-push and half-effort must be done sufficiently, just like the entertainment venue employees say that I am a newcomer or something like that. As long as the price is appropriate, Yan Shenggong will still happily burn incense in the courtyard and salute, and then the whole family will shave their hair and change clothes. He had already thrown the attention to hairstyles, clothing and clothing contained in the sentence of his ancestor of his family, "Micro Tube Zhong, I was sent to the left" into the toilet and poured it down.
Facing the Son of Heaven of the Great Qing Dynasty from the north (unconsciously, the title of the Slave Chief has been changed to the Son of Heaven of the Great Qing Dynasty!) Respect the scholars, understand the news of Corporal Lixian, and look at the various outrageous and perverse behaviors of the Nanyue Army in the hinterland of Shandong, and the favorability of the officials and gentry towards the north and the south suddenly disappeared.
"I don't know when the king will be able to calm the land of Qilu and return the people to a peaceful and pure land!"
This is the heartfelt call of the officials and gentry from all over Shandong in the face of the endless tricks of the Nanyue Army after Wu Xing and Lu Mahong joined forces to quell the rebels besieging Linyi Fucheng!
After the rebellion was quelled, other people had to set up a large number of troops to burn and kill, so as to establish their authority and use it to deter the forces with ghosts in the hearts of all parties. However, Wu Xing and Lu Mahong, the partners who stayed in Shandong, did the opposite. It is not suppressed by torture, but by civil rule.
In the final analysis, it is the ability of the Nanyue Army and the Qin legal system to take care of the house, establish grassroots political power, and popularize compulsory education. Let the people know their rights and obligations, etc. In particular, the various systems of the government's collection of money and grain are even more talked about at every market and temple fair.
Since he was appointed as the envoy of Yimeng Town, Wu Xing set up his place of governance in Linyi. As a basic disk, it is natural to sort it out here.
However, the problem at hand is that if we want to establish a strict and effective grassroots political power, it is far from enough to rely on the existing officials of the Qin legal system. It is necessary to recruit talents and train cadres locally.
However, the trick that usually works well in other regions is to open schools and train local cadres. In the Yimeng Mountain area, he hit his head against the wall.
There were rumors in various towns and villages, and the clans all over the countryside let out their words, "No matter which of your sons and daughters, no matter who you are, you dare to go to school in the bullshit Qin Law School, and those who plan to take this evil road to seek glory and wealth, beware of opening the ancestral hall and revealing their whole family's family membership!" ”
Those cults such as the Innate Dao, the Huangsha Society, and the Nine Palace Dao are also fanning the flames in various places, "Do you know? Why do you want to offer such good conditions, it is free tuition, and it is to provide food and clothing, and it is a good thing for several officials in the imperial court immediately after completing the study? At that time, because of the people who entered this school, they all took their souls! From now on, I don't recognize my father's ancestors when I live, and if I die, I will go to the underworld! ”
However, Wu Xing also has Wu Xing's methods.
Soon, new notices appeared in the market towns. This time, the recruitment conditions on the notice are no longer for young men who have read and can read. Gender restrictions and literacy requirements have been removed. As long as you can easily recognize a few words, you can do it. Moreover, it is stated at the end of the notice that once the interview is passed, the salary will be paid immediately as a settling-in allowance!
In this way, the temptation is suddenly much stronger!
Especially those poor families who have many children and poor family backgrounds have set their sights on their adult daughters.
"Anyway, there is no place for them in the ancestral hall, and the patriarch didn't say what would happen to these girls if they went to that school. After receiving the settling-in allowance, she has a stable place to go, without worrying about food and clothing, and the money she takes at home can also come in handy for some other purposes! "Many parents have similar thoughts, which is basically like selling their daughters.
"My lord! We've recruited hundreds of students to come back! ”
Wu Xing, who was getting up early to wash in Linyi City, couldn't help but be overjoyed when he heard the report of He Fengshan, a capable person under his command. didn't care about the unfinished washing and the slight untidy clothes, so he rushed to the newly opened Qin Law School in Linyi. As soon as I entered the courtyard, I saw a large area of red clothes and green skirts in the courtyard, although most of the women in this era were flat in front and back, and their faces were yellow, but at least the clothes were still very recognizable. Sure enough, most of the people who came to take the exam were girls.
("Whoosh!") A brick struck his head and covered his face, followed by an angry scolding: Bastard author, how can there be such a thing, the ancient folk customs are simple, pay attention to chastity and the defense of men and women, how can there be such an enviable, no, lack of modesty. Here the author is going to say a word, novel, natural YY is inevitable, but I still have to popularize science in ancient times, no, until the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China for a long time The status of women. At that time, women were not like now, their parents were holding them, their boyfriends and husbands were coaxing, the police did not dare to provoke them, and the soldiers did not dare to fight back when they were beaten by them. Although this is a happy thing after the founding of the People's Republic of China, especially in recent years, you must know that the saying and concept that women can hold up half the sky, as well as the social status of women, were laid in the years after the founding of the People's Republic of China, which were constantly criticized by the majority of public elites. But in ancient times, women could hold up half the sky, and this was a matter of pure. Don't say it's in ancient times, look at the bald eagle family of the lighthouse, Hillary who almost became the first female president, even if she is elected president, she has to take her husband's surname! When visiting abroad, others have to remember President Hillary Clinton in the history books. It's like the presidents of the Roosevelt family and the Bush family. Excuse me, what about women's rights?! Ancient women roughly had several functions, giving birth to children, coaxing children, gifts, slaves, and sandbags. In short, the status is roughly higher than that of pigs and dogs and lower than that of horses and cattle. Therefore, when a girl was born in the family in ancient times, the first thing was not to rejoice, but to think about how to get it out to reduce the burden. Of course, if you are a wealthy gentleman at home, you can naturally enjoy the treatment of people, and the function can also be reduced to two, gifts and sandbags. But below the middle peasants, don't think about anything, it's good if you don't mix it with pigs and dogs. The kind of people who were born in a small family and still want to do what the world is a masterpiece, you better save it, or you really wear it, these five functions will definitely let you experience it at one time. )
The Qin Law School itself was arranged to Yimeng Mountain to act as cheap cannon fodder to promote the New Deal, and Wu Xing also knew this. It's just that his idea is that with his own students, such a vast territory in Henan and Shanxi has been managed, and the local tyrants and inferior gentry with thousands of soldiers and horses have been touched, so what else can't be done. But the reality is not so simple, the landlord Tuweizi of Yimeng Mountain is not easy to deal with. It is true that the land in the Yimeng area is not vast, but because of the mountains and inconvenient roads, the same cadres, assuming that the plain can manage one county, can only manage one town here. The individual strength of the official gentry, although the Yimeng region is relatively weak, there are few lords with thousands of troops. However, there are many Huidao Gates here, and through Huidao Gate, people organize 1,200 armed people together through Huidao Gate, and the team formed can easily reach tens of thousands. Moreover, through the Huidaomen, these officials and gentry have also brainwashed the people for a long time, and their foundation is quite solid.
If he and his Qin Law Academy want to survive in this area and make a difference, they must build up their own cadre team as soon as possible.
"Arrange for everyone to eat first! We'll talk about that later! Looking at these yellow-skinned faces in front of him, Wu Xing was also used to seeing them. At the beginning, in the camp, he saw a lot worse than this.
The freshly boiled millet porridge is served with pickles made of large radish, and the aroma is tempting and saliva can't help but secrete. Let these new recruits not care about the heat, just snoring and pouring it into their mouths.
For such a scene, Wu Xing and the officials of the Qin Law Department are also quite familiar with it, and many of them just drank hot porridge and walked into the Qin Law Hall in a daze, so they laughed after watching it.
After eating, these people were in much better spirits. The first impression given to them by the Qin Law School was very deep and good. Next, the gentlemen in the school began to register their names, arrange seats, dormitories, distribute clothing, shoes and socks, and so on. By the way, these new students are taught some basic etiquette rules.
However, after these girls stopped laughing and sat down, Wu Xing did not start teaching immediately, but assigned today's homework to these girls: a group of five, chatting with each other, and reporting the family situation of the other four tomorrow.
Wu Xing was about to answer, but saw a woman walking lightly in front of Wu Xing, and said, "Sir, I have something." Wu Xing smiled and asked what was the matter, only to see the woman say: "Sir, you said that there are five people, but there are less than five people in my place, can I talk to others about family life?" In addition, if I can, then if I can tell the situation of more than four people in the family, is there an additional reward? ”
Wu Xing stared at this woman with interest for a while, this woman was a girl after all, and she couldn't help but blush. After Wu Xing saw the woman's face, he realized that he had lost his temper, so he asked with a smile, "What's your name?" The woman lowered her head and replied softly: "Originally, I didn't have a name, but when I was at home, my father called me eldest sister, and when my father took me to sign up, the name given by the registered gentleman was Song Qiaomei." Wu Xing nodded and said, "Very good, Song Qiaomei." You don't have to wait for tomorrow, you can get a reward in a while, and tomorrow if you perform well, there will be a reward. Song Qiaomei was overjoyed when she heard this, and hurriedly thanked her and left.
After watching the scene just now, He Fengshan smiled and said to Wu Xing, "Congratulations, sir." But do you want to accept a new wife? Wu Xing glared at He Fengshan angrily and said: "Can you think of something serious with your head, if you have this woman's three points of wit, I'm afraid you would have become a general a long time ago." After that, he left the puzzled He Fengshan and went home.
