Shike The hexagram and yarn text "Qianyu, dried meat" is a variety of analysis, but all of them are wrong!
"Dried Ur and Dried Meat" reflects the "Three Thorns, Three Evils, Three Evils, Three Evils, Three Evils, Three Evils, Three Evils, Three Evils, Three Evils, Three Evils, Three Evils, Three Evils, " spirit, and Zhou Gong rituals, "Using punishment to assist morality, Ming virtue and prudence " spirit.
"Changyu" refers to the method of reducing sins and exemption; "dried meat" refers to the method of exempting sins and forgiveness.
dry: Simplified Chinese means dryness and exhaustion. Related usages such as "Qianwu", appear many times in classics such as "Records of the Grand Historian" and " Han Shu ".
Qianwu: the meaning of greed and swallowing; Qian means drying water, which is extended to mean nothing and nothing; therefore Qian means swallowing and greed and lose nothing.
Qianyu: To reduce the crime, it will reduce or exempt serious crimes. For example, in the mid-term bronze ware of the Western Zhou "Zheng", the herding cattle was originally sentenced to ink and 1,000 whip; after paying the fine of 300 copper, it was changed to 500 whip, and the ink whip was cancelled. This is the "eating the Qian U and getting the golden arrows".
Dried meat: For the purpose of exemption from sins, forgive crimes. For example, during the reign of Emperor Wu of the Western Han Dynasty, Sima Qian committed the crime of death. There are two ways to forgive the fine of 5,000 or castration. Because Sima Qian's family was poor, he could not pay the fine, so he had to accept the castration. This is what Yaoci says: "Devour dried meat and get gold."
In the pre-Qin period, only the emperor could enjoy gold, and the emperor accepted the full color of gold for sacrifice. During the reign of Emperor Wu of the Western Han Dynasty, there were cases where princes were deposed because of insufficient quality of gold they presented.
former Professor of the School of Law of Tsinghua University Zhang Mingxin once said that "Zhenghu" provides us with an example of the fines imposed by slavery society. Although the slave owner's intention is to increase the wealth of the slave state, it also includes certain factors to prevent miscalculation and indiscriminate punishment, it is more important to use it as a legal basis for reproaching criminal acts of exploiting class members, and it is also a means to adjust internal contradictions within the ruling group on the basis of fundamental interests.
