Friends who often watch costume dramas believe that they are not unfamiliar with the name of the Jiaofang Division. The Jiaofang Division is a subordinate organization of the Ministry of Rites, and the main official in charge is the Jiaofang Division of Zhengliupin. Unlike the other officials in the Beijing Division, this division had the most awkward scope of work, because the objects of his management were all women. So why is there such a strange institution as the Ministry of Education? In fact, the Jiaofang Division only appeared in the Ming Dynasty, and the place that was originally very elegant was completely changed in the Ming Dynasty.
Originally called Jiaofang, it appeared in the early days of the Tang Dynasty. Tang Taizong Li Shimin was relatively proficient in all aspects, and he could also be regarded as a literary and artistic youth. Li Shimin established a teaching workshop, and the main task of this institution was to train singers, rehearse music and dance, and so on. This was originally a very elegant job, and after the Tang Dynasty, successive dynasties have also used this institution. According to the rules of the time, the church was a subordinate organization of the Ministry of Rites. In the early days of the Ming Dynasty, the elegant place of Jiaofang was completely spoiled. After the Battle of Jingnan, Zhu Di, the King of Yan, successfully rebelled and became the Yongle Emperor.
Due to the improper origin of Zhu Di's throne, many officials at that time were reluctant to submit to Zhu Di. Zhu Di was also very ruthless, that is, during the Zhu Di period, the power of JinyiWei and Dongchang was comprehensively expanded. Those officials who did not want to submit were all killed by Zhu Di, and even exterminated the Ten Tribes. As for the female relatives in the official's family, Zhu Di did not let go. Zhu Di changed the teaching workshop to the teaching workshop division, please note that from this time on, the nature of the teaching workshop division has changed completely, and the teaching workshop division has become the official green building. The wives and daughters of the convicts were sent to the Ministry of Worship, and all the money they received was given to the Ministry of Rites.
In various TV dramas set in the Ming Dynasty, almost all of them can appear in the place of Jiaofangsi. Seriously speaking, the Ming Dynasty was actually reversing the car in terms of politics and culture. According to the regulations of the imperial court, the Jiaofang Division set up a Zhengliupin Division. If in the local area, the Six Pin Officials are not small, at least one level higher than Zhi County. However, when it came to the Beijing Division, where there were many officials, officials below the three pins basically had no say. The church departments were all the wives and daughters of criminal officials, and these women were generally well educated, and they could be called knowledgeable and reasonable, which was completely different from other Qinglou women.
The officials of the Beijing Division were very fond of going to the Teaching Workshop Division, after all, it was not a grade. The Ming Dynasty nominally had two capitals, so a full set of offices in Nanjing also had a set, but they were just empty shelves. According to the regulations of the Ming Dynasty, the female dependents of criminal officials in the Jiangnan region were no better than those sent to the Beijing Division, but they were sent to the Nanjing Jiaofang Division. At the end of the Ming Dynasty, several of the Qin Huai Bayan were from the Nanjing Jiaofang Division. The division's work was very awkward, and his main job was to manage the female dependents, so other officials often joked about this official position. For example, how to change positions, in fact, there is no reason to change.
In the context of that time, although Siye belonged to Liupin, it was difficult to be promoted due to his own work reasons. Ordinary officials want to enter the Metropolitan Court, the Hanlin Academy, and the Ministry of Rites, because these departments are the fastest to promote. As for the teaching workshop division is not in the flow of the position, if promoted, it is the idle position of the five products, not as good as the six products of the industry. Until the Southern Ming Dynasty, the business of the Jiaofang Division was also booming. After the Qing Dynasty entered the customs, a series of rules of the Ming Dynasty were followed, but the Jiaofang Division was abolished. The Qing Dynasty was very bad in all aspects, and it was a good thing on this issue.
