Ding Tian's Ancient Life

Ding Tian disagreed with his statement: "Wang Zuo's crime is tax evasion, even if it is tax evasion, it will be enough to make up for it. Most businessmen are rich, and he can evade taxes. It can be seen that he is doing big business, small businessman, that point They don’t dare to miss the tax money, because they don’t have a backer, most of those who can do big business have backers, otherwise, the business won’t be big, since they have a backer, why didn’t they come to scoop him up?”

In this era, it is not the future generations. What officials want is political achievements. For investors, they are welcome and welcome again. At this time, the emphasis is on "scholars, farmers, businessmen", and businessmen are at the bottom. Even those who have been in business for three generations After that, the imperial examination was allowed, which shows that merchants are not welcome.

But businessmen are rich!

Most of the big businessmen are inextricably linked with certain high-ranking officials and dignitaries, and some big businessmen even give dry stocks to high-ranking officials, just to help them when there is something to do.

Wang Zuo that person looks extraordinary, even if he is a big businessman, he is probably at the top of the businessman's pyramid, such a person was sent to a prison cell in a remote small county in the middle of the night, Master Xing told him The yamen servants are not allowed to disturb, can Ding Tian not think too much.

"That's right!" After he finished speaking, the two of them suddenly realized that after all, they had little experience. Ding Tian came from a later life and had studied systematically. After careful scrutiny, you can detect that something is wrong.

"Anyway, this is a matter from above. I just need to manage my prison well." Ding Tian didn't want to cause trouble, but he was even more afraid of being pushed out as a substitute for the dead, so he quickly determined his goal: " As for what other people think...my cell is up to me."

"That's right, let's avoid causing trouble. At a time like this..." The two of them have also been to Fucheng, and they boast that they have seen the world. Naturally, they have more insight than ordinary people. The three of them have made an agreement, and they will eat, drink, and talk by the way. Let's chat, the county magistrate's backyard farce.

"I heard that Aunt Ruyi is having trouble with the county magistrate's wife again, tsk tsk tsk, aren't you tired of quarreling every day?" The restlessness in the county magistrate's back house is almost becoming a scene in the county government.

"But it's not good for her to make trouble. Madam's natal family is coming to give a New Year's gift. Madam has heard that she has a lot of confidence in cursing people these days. Aunt Ruyi has no natal family!" An aunt is a concubine, Where is the mother's family from?

"I heard that Lin Qi has been flirting with a maid named Hongyan in the backyard for a long time, and I don't know if it will work." Liu Sen is quite concerned about Lin Qi: "However, that maid is quite beautiful!"

"What's the use of being beautiful? Isn't it a piece of shit that the master has slept with? And that maid is a slave, a slave!" Cheng Da hated iron, "Don't Lin Qi know? Marrying a slave as his wife, he Do you want to be a slave too? Or do you think his children will not be able to hold their heads up in the future? What? Are you dazzled by beauty?"

In this era, just like in ancient times, intermarriage between good people and untouchable people is prohibited, and there are laws and customs.

That is to say, in ancient times, slaves, common people, and ethnic groups could not marry each other.

After the Qin and Han Dynasties, although there was a distinction between Qimin (common people) and untouchables, intermarriage was affected, but the restrictions were still bound by rituals, and there were no clear regulations in law.

Among the emperors and concubines of the Han Dynasty, there were quite a few people from humble backgrounds, such as Wei Zifu and Mrs. Li of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, Zhao Feiyan, Empress of Emperor Cheng of the Han Dynasty, and Bian's wife of Cao Cao at the end of the Han Dynasty.

Since Tuoba Jun, Emperor Wen of the Northern Wei Dynasty, issued an imperial edict, Liangjian was clearly prohibited from retiring the marriage.

After the Tang Dynasty, the laws and regulations became more complete, and it was strictly stipulated that good and low marriages were criminal acts.

This decree was followed in the Ming Dynasty.

The scope of the untouchables in the past dynasties includes official and private slaves, child servants, official households, miscellaneous households, trilogy, Gongle Baihu, advocating excellence, official rates, companions, servants, lovers, beggars, etc.

Maids are slaves in the house, without personal freedom, and cannot choose a spouse or match a scholar on their own.

If Lin Qi wanted that maid, he could only treat her as a maid, and absolutely could not get married and make that maid his wife.

Because "marriage" means having two surnames. A maid does not have a surname, and even her name can be changed at will. How can such a woman get married?

□The author's gossip: I checked the ancient marriage conditions, read it for a long time, and summed up four words: the right family!The novels I read before were all fooling people... It is absolutely impossible for the young lady to fall in love with a poor scholar, unless the scholar is very good at reading and will pass the exam... The modern Cinderella and the sparrow turning into a phoenix are all the result of imagination.
