Ancient social management was very strict, which goes back to the era of the Qin State Shang Martingale Transformation Law. First of all, a story related to Shang Martingale, the Shang Martingale Transformation Law has achieved great results in the Qin State, and Shang Martingale has also received a lot of rewards, which objectively caused some people to be dissatisfied, such as the military merit system he implemented, which caused the dissatisfaction of many old nobles.
Shang Martin's situation was very dangerous, so every time he went out, he carried dozens of chariots, which were full of heavily armed and armed warriors. In 338 BC, Qin Xiaogong was critically ill to pass the throne to Shang Martin, Shang Martin resolutely resigned, soon after Qin Xiaogong died, Qin Huiwang succeeded to the throne, at this time someone said to Qin Huiwang, the people who have high merit should be eliminated in time, the monarch is too close to the people around him will cause trouble, you must make a decision early and do not regret it.
Gongzi Qian, the rival of shang martingale, took the opportunity to report Shang Martin's rebellion to King Hui of Qin, who happened to be about to return to his hometown at this time, so King Hui of Qin ordered the arrest of Shang Martin. Shang Martin quickly escaped and fled to the border pass to prepare to stay in the hotel, but the owner did not know Shang Martin, and Shang Martin did not bring any identification, and the shopkeeper told Shang Martin that according to the new law, guests who did not have vouchers were to sit consecutively.
Shang Martin looked up at the sky and sighed, saying that he did not expect the new law to be so powerful. Unable to do so, Shang Martin fled back to his fiefdom, Shang, resisted the Qin army, was defeated and captured, and King Hui of Qin ordered that Shang Martin's body be punished with a car split.
The story of Shang Martin later became an idiom called "self-destruction by doing", and after Shang Martin's death, the new law was not repealed. After the Unification of the Six Kingdoms by the Qin Dynasty, these decrees were handed down from generation to generation, and they were more rigorous and elaborate.
Shang Martin was a high official of the Qin State - under one person, above ten thousand people, as a result, did not escape the constraints of the social management system, and at that time these systems were new laws, the implementation time was not long, there were many loopholes, in this way, Shang Martin did not run away, which shows the strict management of ancient society.
After Qin Shi Huang unified the Six Kingdoms, in order to strengthen his control over the people, he set up a lieutenant in the central government to be in charge of national public order, set up a lieutenant in the county, set up a county lieutenant in the county, and set up a pavilion in the lower part of the township, ten miles for a pavilion, and Liu Bang, the ancestor of Han Gao, was the chief of the pavilion. The management of residents is implemented under the "tithe five system", in which the ten households and five households of the common people are managed in groups, the one-to-one households bear the obligation of supervision and reporting to each other, and the one-person offender bears joint and several responsibility. So the whole country is tightly covered by a large network of administrative and law and order.
Zhou Qin, Han and Tang insisted on closed management of the city's management, the market and the neighborhood were separated, the houses were not allowed to open to the street, and the curfew system was extremely strict. After the Song Dynasty, these systems have changed, but in order to adapt to the new situation, the urban management of the Song Dynasty was based on streets, and a sign was set up in front of the residents' homes with their surnames and population numbers indicated on them for verification. Soldiers were stationed every two hundred steps in the city, fire and theft, and law and order were maintained. Ancient city gates were opened and closed on time, and no one could go out or enter until the time.
In ancient times, people who could be subjected to such a terrible punishment as the Nine Tribes were generally high-powered people, and such people were always under the strict attention of the emperor, so it was difficult to escape. The guards around him, saying that the guards might actually be the watchers.
Moreover, with the progress of society, various secret service organizations also arose, and the Jinyiwei, East Factory, West Factory, and Neixing Factory of the Ming Dynasty all had the responsibility of supervising officials, and once the emperor wanted to take action against an official, he could not escape the control of these secret service organizations.
Therefore, those who were condemned by the emperor to the Nine Tribes could not run away on their own, and their Nine Tribes had long been registered according to the household registration management - this is a universal social management system, and it is likely that they have been incorporated into a certain resident group, and there is no way to escape.
