Chapter 575: The Green Passage to Sue the Son of Heaven
Dengwen Drum.
This exists on top of the original history, and it is a direct green channel for the common people to complain to the emperor.
It first appeared in the pre-Qin period.
However, it was the Song Dynasty that made the Dengwen drum system the best.
Whether it is a dignitary or a rural person, as long as you are a citizen of the Great Song Dynasty, you have the right to beat the Dengwen drum.
Moreover, the demands expressed do not necessarily have to be military affairs, such as redress of grievances or suggestions from the imperial court. wa✡p.f❋✴✻engsh✡fo
Because of the low threshold of this requirement, during the reign of Zhao Kuangyin, Taizu of the Song Dynasty, a common man knocked on the Dengwen drum and met the emperor, saying that his pig had run away and could not be found, so he came to the emperor to complain.
Zhao Kuangyin was not angry. ’
After listening patiently, he also gave him a thousand dollars, which was regarded as compensation.
Afterwards, Zhao Kuangyin gave Prime Minister Zhao Pu an edict: "Today, someone heard it and asked me to find the dead pig, how could I see him pig?" However, those who rejoice with Qing know that there are no wronged people in the world. ”
From this incident, it can be seen that the drum was loose at that time.
However, after the Song Dynasty, the conditions for hitting the drums became more and more harsh, until the Qing Dynasty was in vain, and it was stipulated that those who beat the drums should have 30 canes in the first court to prevent malicious petitions from the people for no reason.
It's over here, this parallel plane.
The emperor who crossed through the previous dynasty also set up the Dengwen Drum.
But it is estimated that it is because he came through and knows the disadvantages of Dengwen drums, so at the beginning of the establishment, he strictly set a few rules to beat the drums, and if he does not comply, he will be severely punished.
In this way, it was cut off from the beginning, because trivial things came to knock on the drum.
However, in order not to become a virtual existence like the Qing Dynasty, there is no rule that you must first beat the drum with a staff of thirty, after all, if you hit thirty times first, everyone will have to beat half to death, who would dare to sue!!
And without the article of being beaten, although the rules are strict, when the people encounter officials and officials who have no way to protect each other and redress grievances, or sue corrupt officials and evil officials, at least there is at least this way to sue the emperor.
And she's going down that path now.
Zhong Shuyu hit it hard, and soon knocked it more than a dozen times.
And at this time, some of the good people who heard the sound of the drums rushed to the noon gate, regardless of their own affairs, to see with their own eyes who was beating the drums.
On the side, the official in charge of the Dengwen Drum Academy, who was shocked to watch this scene, hurriedly said after the other party knocked twenty times, "Enough is enough, enough for the emperor to hear, you just wait." ”
Hearing this, Zhong Shuyu struck ten more times before putting down the drumstick.
When he put it down, Zhong Shuyu's right hand and arm felt a little swollen and numb, because the Dengwen drum was very large, and if he wanted to beat it to convey half of the capital, he naturally had to use great strength.
This earthquake is not numb.
Seeing that Zhong Shuyu put down the drumstick, the officer in charge looked at the young man with some complicated feelings, intellectually he was very suspicious of what the other party was going to sue, what should the current branch be his?
If it's his huiyuan, what a fraud case this is!
The most important thing is that he is a little older, he looks like he is only fifteen or sixteen years old, does he have such ability? Although most of the Huiyuan in the past years are young, there is no such small Huiyuan.
Although he said so intellectually, emotionally, looking at this young man's awe-inspiring aura, he couldn't help but be a little convinced.
Just as he wanted to speak again.
Suddenly, a noisy voice came, and at first glance, it was those curious people who rushed over.
