As we all know, the authority of the ancient emperor can not be offended, which also responds to the phrase "accompanying the king like accompanying the tiger", if the officials of the imperial court say the wrong thing and offend the emperor, or plot rebellion, the consequences must be unimaginable, the removal of the official position is light, the heavy may implicate the entire family, in some film and television dramas will also see, because one person committed a crime and was killed by the Nine Tribes, is undoubtedly a huge disaster.
In fact, since the Xia Shang period, there has been a punishment of the Nine Tribes, and since then it has been recognized by the Legalists, most of them will be punished by the Nine Tribes for plotting. Although it seems inhumane, it is an important measure taken by the king to maintain and consolidate the throne, that is, to achieve the purpose of the king cutting the grass and removing the roots. In the long history, the special social system that was born promoted the social development of the time to a certain extent, and the existence of the Jiujiu tribe was inseparable from the arbitrary behavior of the king.
In today's parlance, the Jiujiu clan probably means that one person commits a crime, and it is not only his own family that is implicated, but also the first four generations and the last four generations who are related to him will be sentenced to death, which is obviously a violation of human nature, whether in modern times or in ancient times, it will be criticized by people. Then seeing this, some people may wonder, which people who have been planted with the Nine Tribes, why will not run away? But obediently waiting to be caught and beheaded?
First of all, related to the speed of information dissemination in ancient times, the emperor issued an order from the Nine Tribes in the court, and the edict must be sent to the criminal's home for the first time to inform that due to the relationship between distance and the speed of transmission, the arrival speed of the edict will be slow, and when the edict arrives, it means the beginning of the punishment, and this sudden sentence has no time and opportunity to escape.
Secondly, there is a certain relationship with the traffic at that time, the traffic in ancient times must not be as convenient as today, the most common means of transportation at that time was walking, there were carriages, palanquins are already very good, and the fastest is the carriage, even if the people of the Nine Tribes have a carriage to escape, it is not as good as the trained horses of the government, so the people who were cursed by the Nine Tribes fled not far, and eventually they will be killed.
In addition, the escape is definitely to flee to the field, everyone should have heard that there were wanted notices or sea fishing documents in ancient times, and most of the ancient people would gather together to chat, once they found that there was a foreign accent, they would have doubts about that person, plus the wanted notices were everywhere, which could be regarded as omissions, and once the fleeing people were reported by people with hearts, they would suffer more cruel punishments, so the people of the Nine Tribes would not choose to escape, that is what only fools do.
