In the hierarchical society of ancient feudal despotism, in addition to the emperor and his harem, the status was supreme, followed by the emperor's brothers and princes. Regarding the nobility of the imperial palace, since ancient times, it has had the label and style of luxury and luxury. In history, the princes also had official positions, holding the Qilu and living in the palace mansion. In fact, the official Feng Lu is at most a few dozen taels a year, and wang ye's daily living expenses are so large, where does he get so much money? This has also attracted the attention of many people.
From many ancient TV dramas, we can also understand that the life of Wang Ye from childhood to adulthood is basically a golden food, even if he later leaves the palace and opens another house and becomes a family. In the TV "Yongzheng Dynasty" we can see that the eight princes can get a basin of ice every summer to relieve the heat, in fact, the price of this basin of ice can already provide for the expenses of ordinary people living for a year, so it seems that it is indeed very luxurious. So how many of Wang Ye's Feng Lu are there? Where did they get their money other than Feng Lu?
First of all, we can first understand the annual Feng Lu of Qing Dynasty officials. The Qing Dynasty followed the Ming Dynasty's Standard of Feng Lu, but the treatment of officials was much worse than that of the previous dynasty. For example, zhengyipin officials only have 180 taels of silver per year to 7 pinzhi county and only 45 taels of silver per year. Such a small amount of silver is indeed enough for ordinary people to live a good life, but it is far from enough for these officials. There are too many corrupt officials in history, such as Zhixian County's nominal 45 taels of silver a year, but the actual actual income is as high as 1,000 taels, and even if the silver allocated by the state treasury and the government is greedy, it is really disgusting to continue to exploit the people. Therefore, it is not unreasonable that the rare qing officials in history are always respected and loved and praised by the people.
Let's look at the Qing Dynasty nobles' Feng Lu, during the Shunzhi period, the prince's annual salary was about 10,000 taels of silver, plus 10,000 stones of food. During the Kangxi period of the Taiping Dynasty, the people lived and worked in peace and contentment, and most of their lives could basically ensure food and clothing. At that time, the royal life was also more luxurious, and the prince probably changed it into rmb a year, and there was a salary of more than 4 million yuan a year, as a modern person, he was really envious of his real name.
During the Qing Dynasty, the consumption and expenditure of the imperial family were generally very large, extravagant, and the corruption and incompetence of officials were also the key to the vulnerability of the late Qing dynasty and eventually to its demise. Ten thousand taels of silver a year is simply not enough for the daily living expenses of the princes and other nobles, many princes in addition to holding the treasury and rewards, but also operate some other shops, their annual income is even more continuous, hundreds of thousands or even millions of silver a year is not a problem.
Wang Ye wears jade food every day, how much is there in Feng Lu every year? Say it only with envy. In the feudal autocratic society, the people have always played the role of being exploited, and the princes and nobles are the enjoyers of exploitation, big fish and big meat every day, and every dynasty abounds.
