How cruel the castration of ancient women was,

In the ancient feudal society of China, there were many terrible criminal laws. The kind that makes people's lives worse than death. Today, Bian Xiao will talk to you about how cruel the ancient castration was.

How happy we are to live in modern society.

So: What is castration? Simply put, castration is also called corruption.

It is a cruel corporal punishment used to castrate male and female genitals in ancient times. If Bianxiao is not popular, you may not know that castration in ancient times can be said to be against human relations, not only for men, but also for women.

It is the most severe corporal punishment in ancient criminal law. Anyone who is castrated is not only physically tortured, but also mentally insensitive, like a walking corpse. I was deeply hurt, and my future life was as silent as stagnant water.

Although castration is so contrary to human relations, after all, times have changed. At that time, the environment was too bad, the feudal society and economy developed slowly, and the people were destitute and lived in dire straits every day. So at that time, many poor people voluntarily cut off their reproductive organs and made a living as eunuchs in the palace.

The following small series will talk about the development history of castration.

According to Bian Xiao, castration appeared at least before Xia. During the Zhou Dynasty, people would call a prisoner? Temple? People. This? Temple? Separate, one dirt above and one inch below. Being together at that time meant that men cut off their reproductive organs.

In the Qin Dynasty, when the rule of Qin Shihuang became more and more cruel, many men were imprisoned. Then in the Han Dynasty, castration became more common. In order to show the authority of Emperor Jing of Han Dynasty, some directly replaced the death penalty with castration.

By the time of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, castration was more prosperous. We all know Sima Qian, who spoke a few words of truth in order to protect Li Ling, causing the dissatisfaction of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty and sentenced him to castration. Can be described as chilling. At that time, anyone who went against the emperor's will would be ravaged by this kind of torture.

By the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, castration had a new development. At this time, the castration was mainly aimed at the descendants of the rebels, and the undead were slaves. In the Tang Dynasty, it was even more obvious. Let's talk about the Ming Dynasty. An interesting thing happened during Zhu Yuanzhang's reign.

At that time, the court was building a palace, only because a court official gave the working class an error. Zhu Yuanzhang was very angry and wanted to castrate all these workers. Fortunately, someone with a heart stood up and said that this castration was exempted. This short story can also be seen in the Ming Dynasty. The use of castration by those officials is becoming more and more casual and common.

In the Qing dynasty, this castration developed to the extreme. Technology is becoming more and more advanced. Before the Qing dynasty, it was rough and casual. In the Qing dynasty, you had to have castration and sign a contract. Just like now you are operating in the intensive care unit immediately, your relatives must sign it. The general content also has the same effect. If you sign it, no one will take care of any problems during the operation.
