What does it mean that there are no good people among the six doors?

First of all, let’s talk about what six doors are.

In ancient Chinese houses, poor families had only one door.

But the doors of wealthy families and government offices were on the left and right. One door and two doors on the right

The six doors refer to the three yamen

It is the so-called "Three Law Divisions"

For example, we have all heard of it , Ministry of Justice, Dali Temple, Yushitai, Inspectorate, Tingwei, etc.

In different dynasties, the names of these three yamen are slightly different

But they are similar in nature

There is a saying among the people that "it is good to practice in the six gates"

This sentence has two meanings

①It is very dark in these three yamen, everywhere People who have no place to redress their grievances (the officialdom is dark) can accumulate virtue and do good deeds by helping anyone

——Cultivation here refers to doing good deeds and accumulating virtue and doing good deeds for oneself. Why is it good to practice? Because the officialdom is dark, there are not enough innocent poor people who can help

②The relationship between these three yamen is intricate, and working in it will greatly improve the level of officialdom

——The practice here refers to learning (ancient) officials to protect each other. If you don’t practice this set of official rules, your life may be in danger
