Looking back at the thousands of years of history in China, there are countless unjust cases accusing grievances, and there are many heroes and heroes in prison, which makes people look at it and regret it. The most classic "no soldier rebellion case" of the Han Dynasty is one of them, and Han Xin, who failed to escape the ending of "rabbit dead dog cooking", was forcibly named as a rebel. Perhaps the root cause of this investigation is nothing more than Han Xin's high merit, good use of soldiers, scheming, and high merit.
There are not a few people who are suspected by the rulers and imprisoned, and in the Hanyu Dictionary, there is another word used to describe these unjust cases - literal prison. That is, in ancient times, in order to persecute intellectuals, the ruler deliberately "provoked" in their written works, so as to achieve the purpose of persecuting his life, and a 70-year-old minister was given death, and the severed head meal ate 2 pieces of meat and drank 3 glasses of wine, and the emperor looked at him and let him go. What's going on? In the final analysis, the emperors of the feudal society period traded a balance between politics and reason. But it can't satisfy everyone, even the emperor of the ages has many controversies. In order to consolidate his position, the emperor hoped that the people would obey his arrangements.
The most direct way is to control the people's thinking, as was the case with the deposing of the Hundred Families during the reign of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. But because of this, Emperor Xuan of Han beheaded Yang Yunqi, who wrote the Book of Emperor Huizong of the Sun Dynasty. The birth of the literal prison is not a good custom. But it is not uncommon in the dynasties and dynasties of our country. Write "When is the bright moon, ask the wine to the blue sky." Su Shi, a great scholar, was deposed because of the Wutai poetry case, turning over the history of China, and there are countless similar unjust cases. The development of the text prison to the Qing Dynasty is even more shocking, and the Qing rulers have evolved more and more cruel and cruel in order to deepen the stability of their rule.
According to historical records, the three emperors of Kangxi, Yongzheng and Qianlong alone had nearly 200 cases of literal prison. The Qianlong Emperor alone had more than one hundred and thirty cases, and the reasons for them were even more varied, and all ideas, history, and politics were destroyed, and even science and technology had nothing to do with politics, and books that could promote social development were also regarded as banned books.
This is one of these cases, Yin Jiaquan was born in 1711, and his father Yin Huiyi was also an official waiter. Under such family conditions, Yin Jiaquan can also be regarded as the second generation of officials. As he should have been, he also embarked on a career path, and in the first year of the Qianlong Dynasty (1736), he was appointed as the head of the Punishment Department. Yin Jiaquan was not a mediocre talent, coupled with his diligence, he was very appreciated by Qianlong at the beginning. Slowly, he also began to think of himself as a Confucian, and the articles he wrote became more and more arrogant. However, Yin Jiaquansheng was sweet in his mouth and often patted the horses of the Qianlong Emperor. Therefore, after more than forty years of appointment in the court, he also returned to his hometown smoothly. Everything should have gone smoothly back to his hometown, but Yin Jiaquan, who was recuperating in his old age, was in addition to the fork at this time. Living in the storm of power for many years, Yin Jiaquan's bookish spirit has long been almost exhausted.
Greedy for power and unfinished business, he also wanted to fight for himself the title of a filial piety at this time. So he wrote to the Qianlong Emperor who wanted to ask for his father's courtesy and obedience. This is just a matter of humility, but this can be regarded as a violation of the emperor's taboo. After all, in ancient times, the worship represented the supreme glory, and it was also in the Ming Dynasty that Wanli personally approved Wang Shouren from the Temple of Confucius, and such a great Confucian as him also caused a controversy. Seeing this, the Qianlong Emperor of course reprimanded Yin Jiaquan and did not grant his request. If ordinary people had given up on this, Yin Jiaquan had already sold his reputation and fished for his reputation, and even continued to play shamelessly. This can be regarded as a repeated jump on the bottom line of the Qianlong Emperor. Enraged, the Qianlong Emperor ordered Yin Jiaquan to be handed over to the Ministry of Punishment for interrogation.
However, fortunately, Yin Jiaquan's father and son were indeed incorruptible, and the Qianlong Emperor, who could not find a reason, began to cut from Yin Jiaquan's article, and it took a month before and after to "piece together" the charges of Yin Jiaquan's disrespect, and finally Yin Jiaquan was sentenced to Ling Chi's execution. This is also the famous Yin Jiaquan character prison case. Seeing that his family and relatives were all executed for sitting and executing because of himself, Yin Jiaquan, who was already 70 years old, also saw through the red dust at this moment. He calmly ate the severed head meal that belonged to him, that is, three glasses of wine and two pieces of meat, and Yin Jiaquan calmly prepared to meet his relatives who had already taken a step ahead. But he didn't expect that everything would turn around, and the Qianlong Emperor saw him so indifferently, worried that he would bear the charge of killing the old minister. After the anger subsided, he felt that Yin Jiaquan was not unforgivable, so he released him before the execution.
Most of the unjust cases come from the unfathomable mind of the emperor, the so-called high merit shock lord. However, a large part of the Yin Jiaquan text prison case lies in Yin Jiaquan himself, knowing that there are tigers in the mountains who are biased towards the tigers. The so-called companion is like a companion tiger, who has been in the court for too long, has long forgotten his original intention, and only has the desire for power in his eyes. This was the main reason for his eventual demise. Therefore, people must maintain their original intention at all times, do not forget the original intention, and continue to move forward in order to prosper.
