The Ming history case started in Zhuang Tinglong, and after a dismissal of Wu Zhirong, who was originally returned to Anzhi County, was reported for his own selfish interests, he was investigated by the Criminal Department and set off a big prison.

At that time, Zhuang Tinglong was dead, the coffin was opened and the corpse was killed, and his brother Zhuang Tingyue was implicated and executed. Li Lingzhe, the former waiter of the Ministry of Rites, once wrote a preface to the book, and he also had four sons. Anyone who proofreads, engraves, sells books, or implicates the names of people in the books will die.

There were more than 70 unjust deaths in the Ming history case, and most of the deceased's wives were sent to the frontier.

At that time, everyone in the capital was also in danger, and when the minister went to court, every piece of music was cautious, and he couldn't be more cautious, for fear of angering the emperor.

The incident has passed, but the bloody storm at that time is still thrilling in retrospect.

"Well, do you think that the book of Nanshan Ji may be another Ming history case?" The fourth master said in a low voice, at this time, you really need to be cautious.

Although he and Lao Jiu are political enemies, they are brothers after all, if Nanshan Ji is really involved in those things that oppose the Qing Dynasty and restore the Ming Dynasty, Lao Jiu's bookstore stall is so big, any one that hits it will be punished.

"Yes." Gu Youran nodded: "Dai Mingshi is the editor of the Hanlin Academy, and the beginning of this Nanshan Collection is also because he is very indignant at the imperial court's arbitrary tampering with the history of the Ming Dynasty I have read the Nanshan Collection, although it does not have as many rebukes of the Qing Dynasty in the history of the Ming Dynasty, presumably he also wants to use a fair heart to directly narrate the historical facts, so that people can see clearly, but some of the things involved in it are indeed a little "disliked by those in power."

Many unbearable facts always make the emperor feel ashamed, even if those are true, no one is allowed to release them.

Even if it is a very objective description, a description without any evaluation, it is not allowed to be made public.

If modern communication is so extensive and the network is so developed, it can't be stopped no matter what, but in the Qing Dynasty, killing people and destroying people, and deterring authority, the people were afraid, so they naturally didn't dare to say much.

The occurrence of these literary prisons all began with the national contradictions that existed between the Manchus and the Hans.

Han scholars were oppressed by the Qing Dynasty, and there were cases where they used words to vent their resentment, and the late Ming Dynasty relics wrote books and said, sometimes revealing the thoughts of the mountains and rivers and the homeland, and there were also such cases.

The causes of the Ming History and Nanshan Ji Er Cases are somewhat tinged with this color.

In fact, if the rulers were more tolerant and turned a blind eye to these, these books would be just some old and angry complaints, but the rulers of the Qing Dynasty were very sensitive to this issue, and in order to strengthen the ideological rule and prevent the slightest problem, they would crack down hard once they were discovered, and later became neurotic, coupled with the contradictions in the officialdom, so a series of literary prisons occurred.

But many of them are groundless, just chasing after the wind and killing innocents indiscriminately.

But they were afraid of the influence of these emaciated literati.

Words can save a country, but it can also destroy a country.

Actually, she can also understand Kangxi.

Alas, both sides can understand, but for the rulers, it is their sensitive nerves that keep them sitting.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but look at the fourth master.

There were also a lot of literary prisons during the Yongzheng Ye period!

The case of the Weimin Firm, the case of Lu Liuliang, and the case of Zeng Jing

In particular, the case stopped by the Uygmin Institute is too ridiculous

At that time, it was the early days of the fourth master's reign, and several literary prisons were by-products of the power struggle of the ruling group department, and under the charge of "friends", the prison was repeatedly set up to rectify those old enemies who had fought for the throne.
