Chapter 100: The family corrects itself and destroys the evil
The Zhao family is just an emerging family, and so far, there are less than ten officials with real rank. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
It is true that Emperor Ling sold his official beard, but the ancestors of the Han Dynasty stipulated that in order to be an official, he must first be born in filial piety.
On this one, a lot of rich and powerful people are stuck, the standard of filial piety, highlighting a filial piety word, not only has a title, but also must have corresponding deeds, which can stand up to scrutiny.
There is no way, Confucian people like to pay attention to these red tape, although everyone knows that the truth of filial piety is worth scrutinizing. Filial piety, father does not live".
There have been emperors since the Han Dynasty, and when later generations talk about this person, especially in the official classics, they will add the word "filial piety" in front. For example, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, that is Emperor Xiaowu.
The limited number of filial piety restricts the number of officials of the Zhao family.
The current highest status of the Zhao family is, of course, Zhao Meng, the true duke, even if he doesn't have the slightest errand on his body, seeing that the emperor doesn't kneel, the three dukes and the like, he will salute immediately after seeing it.
Don't look at Zhao Feng as a two-thousand-stone Taishou, his position is not as loud as his younger brother, General Zhennan, one of the generals of the Four Towns.
The Zhao family, as a real head snake, what happened in the city, in less than a quarter of an hour, all the people in power in the family knew.
didn't wait for Zhao Jiao to go to the family to make a statement at all, someone immediately brought him over for questioning, and the professionals would naturally find out all his faults, even if he had sex several times every night.
I don't know if I don't check, word God, an unknown Zhao Jiao, there are as many as fifty-three women in the Ming media, and there are more than ten in secret, and even hook up with married women, no wonder the dignified third-rate martial artist looks weak.
The question is, he is just the son of Zhao Jue, the second master's steward, and he needs money to support his family, where did he get so much money? Not to mention the abundance, if a woman spends ten gold, that is six or seven hundred gold.
It soon became clear that the second master was in charge of the family's business, and many businessmen simply sharpened their heads in order to get his reception.
Most of the time, the stewardship of the Zhao family is equivalent to the nature of Zhao Yun's secretary in his previous life, and Zhao Zhong's daily arrangements are all taken care of by these people.
Maybe they don't need to report to anyone at all, and it's not a problem to squeeze a person into the schedule.
In fact, for the Zhao family, it doesn't matter what kind of business they cooperate with for any product, as long as the interests of the family are protected, what is the difference between the Zhang family and the Li family?
But for ordinary businessmen, it is very different, instead of going to the wholesaler to obtain the right to operate, it is better to make a desperate bet and spend a lot of money on the second master's side to be a wholesaler instead of a second dealer.
It is said that secretly, the cost of meeting with Zhao Zhong once is a thousand gold, and I am not sure if you can gain something.
Rao is like this, those merchants who are stranded in Zhending City are still flocking to it.
To whom is this money given? Naturally, the people around the second master, the steward and his family, and even the people around the second lady have been eroded to varying degrees, and no one is not blushing in real money.
What to do with the stolen money? Completely absorbed into the family.
The fate of those people is more bleak, and there are not many people who receive leniency, and even if they are not expelled, they will be transferred from their current posts, and they can only be ordinary servants in the future.
The problem of money is not the biggest problem, the key is that many women, they are married to the media, but their men have gone from the past to today's situation, how many people do not divorce?
Perhaps in the eyes of Zhao Yun's previous life, the status of women in ancient times was low, and they were all about repairing books, but in fact, it was not.
During the Qin and Han dynasties, the status of women was higher than that of later generations, and the status of women as a whole has been declining, until the lowest in the Qing Dynasty.
Because the Qing Dynasty was the closest to people in Zhao Yun's previous life, people often automatically substituted their own understanding of the Qing Dynasty when they mentioned ancient times, and the same was true in terms of women's status.
When unmarried, women in the Han Dynasty not only had the right to inherit property that most women in the dynasty had, but also had the right to inherit the head of the household.
It is often recorded in the Han Book of Historical Records that the emperor rewarded the family with a woman as the head of the household, such as cattle and wine, and in addition to enjoying the right of inheritance of the title, which was not available to women in later dynasties.
For example, the Decree of the Second Year states:
For the county officials, if they die in the middle of the twenties, they are all dead, and the son and man attack his lord. Those who do not have knighthoods are followed by public servants. No son is a woman, no woman is a father, no father is a mother, no mother is a male child, no male child is a woman, no woman is a wife.
The order of succession to titles is specified, i.e., son-daughter-father-mother-brother-sister-wife.
So it's no wonder that after the death of the Han Dynasty, someone wrote to Emperor Wei Wen: "The text of the case classics has no system of women dividing the land and ordering the lord." In the ceremony, the lady is the husband. Qin violated the ancient law, and the Han clan was not the order of the first king. Since then, the female title system has been banned.
The royal family of the Han Dynasty still has the tradition of giving their children their mother's surname, such as the record of Princess Li and Princess Rong and Princess Shentu Princess Fu in the two-year law, and the son of Wei Zifu in the historical records is called Prince Wei, and the daughter is Princess Wei Chang.
Empress Dowager Dou's daughter, Princess Guantao, was honored as Lord Dou in the Wudi Dynasty, the mother of Emperor Shi in the Han Book was Shi Liangdi, and Emperor Xian of the Eastern Han Dynasty was called Dong Hou in his uncle's house, and so on.
In ancient China, there was never a law prohibiting civilian women from remarrying, and women who remarried through normal procedures were criticized and condemned by morality, etiquette, and public opinion.
Therefore, no matter which dynasty was before the Han Dynasty, there were actually a lot of women who remarried.
A divorced woman can't get married? Then you're thinking too much. Ordinary people are too welcome to concubines in big families, after all, they are well educated and can bring formal etiquette and knowledge to their families.
On the second master's side alone, eighty-seven people who were investigated and punished suddenly appeared.
The vigorous Zhending Zhao family's self-correction action was immediately launched.
In this era, why does Emperor Ling hate the family deeply? Quite simply, family law is greater than national law.
Families, especially various families, if their family members or subordinates commit crimes, the family ugliness must not be publicized, and the punishment within the family will be more severe than the government's punishment.
After all, if you want to kill chickens and make an example of monkeys, you can't deter future generations if you don't deal with it.
Not to mention other families, it was Zhao Yun's biological mother Zhang's room, which was half empty all of a sudden, embezzlement and bribery.
Whether it is a woman or a man, it is not like the government to publish the list, and people from the outside world do not know.
Some people may say, how serious is that, isn't it enough?
Do you know who is being held in the government prisons? There is not even a poor family, all of them are flat-headed people. Of course, except for political prisoners, the family in every place has become a small official mansion by itself, and Liu Hong hates it so much.
It is true that the Zhao family is a warrior family, and the clansmen know very well that if the emerging family is biased at the beginning, this family will not be able to grow at all.
All of a sudden, the place where the real three percent was gloomy and bleak, and the self-correction work came quickly and violently.
Of course, from now on, those who deal with the Zhao family will find that no matter what, the procedures are reduced and the efficiency is faster. And it doesn't cost you a sub.
This action is not recorded in history, but it laid the foundation of the Zhao family for eternity. (To be continued.) )
