Ancient candidates were entangled in abundance, why didn't the bandits dare to rob?The actual mentality of the bandits
If the country lives and dies for profit, will it not be avoided because of good and evil?"This is a true portrayal of the ancient literati, and in ancient China, there was only one way to completely change their fate.
Li Bai once said:"The difficulty of Shu Road is difficult to go to the blue sky"。But who knows the difficulty of the imperial examination and the sadness of the imperial examination?Pu Songling, a talented man in the Qing Dynasty's "Strange Tales from Liao Zhai", struggled for the imperial examination all his life, but he was never allowed to hold an official position;Liu Yong, a talented man in the Song Dynasty, could only lie drunk in the grass hall after falling off the list, leaving poems:"The belt gradually widened and did not regret it, and it made people haggard for Yi. "
As for the image of a scholar walking to catch the exam, many people think that it is not very entertaining in the TV series, but have you ever thought about one thing, that is, in ancient times, books were very valued, unlike now when books are everywhere'There is a ** house in the book'I don't know how much it costs a family to feed a scholar, but books alone can be a lot of money.
Just like the scene in the TV series where a poor scholar enters Beijing to take the exam, although there are examples of Fan Zhongyan who have a low starting point, many people's families are still not wealthy, at least they are middle-class.
Then there is the old era of scholars to enter Beijing to catch the exam, the body will definitely bring a lot of pain, including travel and accommodation expenses, to say that the attitude is the attitude of the old times, and there is no bank card to store money in the bank card, with so much money in the capital is undoubtedly very ostentatious, it is inevitable to encounter such a vicious bandit, why there are few bandits in history who dare to rob the reader?Speaking of which, in fact, you don't know how high the status of ancient scholars was, because at that time, scholars had a sign hanging around their waists, which was enough to deter any robbers.
If they pass the exam, who would dare to rob them?
Shinong Industry and Commerce"These four words are enough to represent the identity of the ancient scholars, and the little people engaged in industry in ancient times are nothing more than these four kinds of people, and the representative of the sergeant is very simple, and the taxi can be read as"taxi"In ancient times, it meant to enter the official career, so scholars were often called"Shizi"、"Scholars"、"Shi Lian"。In ancient times,"Entry"It means to enter the official career.
In all dynasties, including the war-torn Wei and Jin dynasties, the rulers of the Central Plains had to stabilize the scholar group, treat them preferentially, and give them advice in order to gain their support. Cao Cao did just that, treating scholars well while suppressing the clan.
The ancients said"Those who win the hearts of the people win the world", we can also say"Whoever wins the world wins"。Li Shimin, Zhao Kuangyin, and Zhu Yuanzhang all won the support of the scholar community, and Zhao Kuangyin later established the Great Song Dynasty. And the Great Song Dynasty established after Zhao Kuangyin is called"Rule the world with literati", indicating the status of the old literati group.
At that time, the scholar doctor entered Beijing to take the exam, and there was a hanging belt card in the middle, which literally"Ordered to rush for the exam", that is, the scholar doctor received the holy decree to enter Beijing.
It can be said that there are no restrictions on entering any place, and the local government will even take special care of all the matters of this candidate, because once the candidate is kidnapped, it means that the local security is almost useless, so the officials and bandits really dare not touch this candidate.
What's more important behind it'Hunt for the Holy Decree'Many bandits don't understand the work of bandits, and they also know who to deal with and who not to deal with, and they absolutely dare not deal with it, such as this incident, otherwise the government may collapse in the next second, which can be described as more than worth the loss.
Therefore, this time, in order to catch the academician exam, there are ten thousand captains walking, but the bandits definitely dare not mix.
They are not afraid of ten thousand, only in case.
And more importantly, there are some rules among the bandits, so if the other bandits around you dare to break these rules, one of them must not rob the reader.
The reason why such a rule is released, on the one hand, is also worried that the government will investigate and deal with it in the future, after all, sometimes the existence of bandits recognizes that the government was the reason for the rise of bandits before, but the government does not forgive, and when the time comes, their foundation may not be a good fruit to eat;On the other hand, because the status of scholars was relatively high in the old days, the bandits also attached great importance to scholars, and it was often seen in TV dramas that the scholars were directly promoted to second-class officials after they were arrested, so the scholars had to be arrested, so they had to be arrested. caught the reader and went straight to the second grade.
For example, if he catches a scholar, he is not afraid of 10,000, but coincidentally, the scholar worked as a clerk in the neighborhood before he went to high school, so at this time, the new hatred and old hatred will be combined, for bandits, they also have to survive, these things, you still have to be careful, and it is not strange to be afraid of losing your life.
Therefore, banditry in the old times is not a simple matter, first of all, you have to have an eye, you have to know what you must not rob, otherwise it will kill you.
