People imitate Dong Huan's events.

A property raid inspired by Dong Qichang's enemies ransacked Dong Qichang's homestead, which was later called "the fact that people copied Dong Huan". And inspired by the placard: "... there is no public anger in everyone's heart." Dear colleagues, don't look on coldly, think about the sad fox, don't be afraid to lose a mouse, and seek forgiveness from heaven to please people. When asked if his handwriting is not stupid, his painting is not stupid, his article is not Sima Zongmen, and he is not Ouyang. How could he be lucky enough to be a villain and abuse his name? ..... If we tolerate it any longer, it will never be this world. As soon as the public recruitment arrives, all the drums are ringing, and in the middle of ten days, four fierce people will be raised. Sincerely. " Obviously, the exaggerated elements revealed in this list are highly inflammatory. History has proved that Dong Qichang's achievements in Hanyuan are by no means the so-called "Han Fei Ouyang Zi Dai", but a generation of calligraphy and painting.

From the 10th, 11th to 12th day of the 10th lunar month, these people fly all over the streets. 15, during the incense ceremony, people crowded the streets, cursed and demolished dozens of elite halls named after their minions. On 16th, "You's", two boys boarded the house, which was as convenient as apes. They made a fire with two rolls of oil reed mats and held the facade room. At night, the northwest wind is slight, and the fire is still slow. It's burning in the tea room. The fire is a little bigger. The wind is stronger than before and extends to the hall. Fire rides the wind, full of flames. "Poor Dong's family for a while," all four houses were burnt down, and all the family assets were swept away "("People copied Dong Guan's Records "). Hundreds of pavilions and balconies carved with beams and painted columns were all burned down, and the fire burned all night.

/kloc-on 0/9, terrorists burned down Dong Qichang's bookstore in Bailongtan, and sank a plaque written by Dong Qichang with the words "Bao Zhuge" into the river, writing "Dong Qichang went straight to the bottom." There is a large plaque on the main hall of Hua Zuo Temple, with the inscription "Hall of Great Heroes" carved horizontally. The inscription "Dong Qichang Book" was smashed with bricks, and the monks were allowed to climb up and tear it down. Dong Qichang took refuge in Suzhou, Zhenjiang, Danyang and Xing Wu, and it was not until six months later that the incident subsided.

At that time, officials reported the matter to the court: "Because there was a dispute between the legendary novel and the student Fan and his son, both sides had grievances, so they started a dispute. The second surname is thousands of miles away, and people outside the matter don't have to stir it up, which makes this strange change and the evil is rampant. The home of Dongshi's master and servant was destroyed overnight. " (The fact that people copied Dong Huan). The final result of the joint hearing of the three governments in Su Chang Town is: "For a while, all the students believed the words that inspired Song, waited for their eyes and ears, became angry and became enemies, rose up and attacked them, became crazy about their five studies, and made obscene remarks. They were so excited that they forgot the hidden dangers when they crashed. It is appropriate for them to have today's ears. " (Ming anonymous "The fact that people copied Dong Huan")

At that time, the highest official in charge of the local government-Wang, the right governor of Duchayuan (provincial and ministerial level), made a targeted investigation: "Today, our hospital visited the land and visited the squire Xiaolian and his elders, which was quite ordinary. Most people who fill this job gap, if there is one person. And those who cut their teeth will win 10 million. Although the cloud is strange, it is really ignorant, and the aunt and the reform are exempt from its investigation. " ("The fact that people copied Dong Huan")

The government arrested several thugs involved in the incident and convicted them. Dong Qichang also advocated "forgiveness for the people" (Ming anonymous "The fact that people copied Dong Xun"). The whole incident was instigated by scholars, who encouraged local scholars to slander and vilify their own reputation, and encouraged and organized ignorant people to rob others' things. So the debate about "copying by the people" or "copying by scholars" was unresolved and dragged on for half a year. The final approval result was made under the joint review of Suzhou, Changzhou and Zhenjiang. In addition to making a gang of hooligans who directly participated in Dong Jia's burning, killing and looting a capital crime, five Confucian scholars in Huating County, Songjiang Prefecture were clubbed and removed from their fame, another five were clubbed and demoted, and three were clubbed alone. Dong Qichang's family Chen Ming was "burned down the house first" by the mob, but the government still "detained him and waited for him". Nowadays, people often cling to the result of the government's handling of Dong Qichang's "illegal slave generation and unknown Dong Huan", and blindly think that the government sheltered Dong Jia for no reason and without any basis, so that Dong Qichang must have been deliberately set up as a big bully in the village.

Furthermore, back to the social class at that time, Dong Qichang already belonged to the upper class, which was protected by the emperor and could not be treated as a doctor. Therefore, due to the particularity of Zhan Zhao society at that time, Dong Qichang's status and honor can of course be exchanged for some corresponding status. For example, concubines and serfs are more in number and scope than civilians, and there is no need to pay some taxes that farmers have to pay. This privileged situation has been staged in China for more than 2,000 years, and it has become a de facto "truth", which was completely legal at that time, and these people all know it. But why can't Dong Qichang be left alone, or even forced to say that he is "rich, but the tax loss is only three points"?

The final answer should beno. In the early years of the Qing Dynasty, those scholars who compiled the history of the Ming Dynasty saw something fishy at a glance according to the historical facts circulating at that time, and restored the truth: "Duhu Guang studied politics without asking for instructions, and was complained by influential scholars. Hundreds of people clamored for Confucianism and ruined his official position." (Ming History) This shows that Dong Qichang was resented by another privileged family. This privileged family instigated some frustrated intellectuals at the bottom to make waves in front of Dong Qichang. Finally, the minions of the privileged family colluded with the incited people and burned down Dong Qichang's house. Writing this book is a legend in itself. Since then, some people doubted the authenticity of "copying Dong Huan by the people", saying that Dong Qichang was tired of fame. After nearly a hundred years, it is proved that the investigation conclusions of Ming and Qing dynasties are consistent.

Some people may suspect that people who wrote Ming History may try to put in a good word for Dong Qichang, because Dong Qichang is so famous. We only look at the process of compiling Ming history. The history of the Qing dynasty was only a few decades, and it was very easy to obtain evidence and verify if there were elderly witnesses present. Wang and He are two outstanding contributors to the revision of history in the Ming Dynasty. They are both talents who managed Shi Liang, inherited the mantle of Huang Zongxi and paid attention to historical facts. During the period of Kanggan, the political atmosphere was particularly tense and the literary inquisition was cruel. At this time, experts will not take political risks because of a former Dong Qichang. In addition, Dong Qichang was also the target of attack in the Qing Dynasty. His remarks about "slave leaders are easy to kill, and Liao resents the sky" made the Qing emperor furious. In the same year, he personally wrote "Xiehuan Yuan Gonghang" for Yuan Keli, which was banned because there were many so-called "statements that despised Manchu". Yuan Keli, Mao and others were deliberately avoided by the Qing government because they were good at founding the country in the late Ming Dynasty. There are various indications that the possibility of whitewashing Dong Qichang in the Qing Dynasty does not exist, so we have reason to believe that the evaluation of Dong Qichang by the official history of the Ming Dynasty after the regime change is fair, or that the record of "the fact that people copied Dong Guan" is at least more conditional and closer to historical facts than today's hypothesis.

Dong Qichang's highest position was as an official of Nanjing Ritual Department, which was the pinnacle of his career. After Emperor Yongle moved the capital to Beijing, it was different to be a minister of rites in Nanjing, the capital, and to be a minister of rites in Beijing. It can be understood as a member of the "shadow cabinet" who only solves the rank problem and enjoys ministerial treatment. From this point of view, Dong Qichang is not a very powerful official. It is unconvincing to prove that Dong Qichang is so good. His ultra vires is far from fishing for officials and fishermen, Rainbow, Zhen, Wei Zhongxian. Today, saying that Dong Qichang is "as dangerous as Qilu, as rich as Yuan Zai, and as extravagant as Dong Zhuo" is objectively inconsistent with historical facts.
