Chapter 39 Ancient people with newer thinking than modern people (1)

We have talked before that we think we are modern people, but in fact, many of our minds are ancient.I once took out a Buddhist recitation machine to show everyone how to use modern technology to recite the Buddha's name.You recite the Buddha yourself. If you don’t recite it, you have to ask the machine to recite it for you. This is using modern scientific methods to display ancient superstitions.People like us are modern people, but our thinking is ancient.On the contrary, there is a kind of person who is an ancient person, but his thinking is actually very modern. Please take a look at a picture. This person is Ji Xiaolan who launched the famous "Siku Quanshu" for Emperor Qianlong.What kind of person is he?He reads the best books and has the greatest knowledge.How big is it?So big that after the summary of the "Siku Quanshu" he wrote, he almost stopped writing books.What is the reason?I have written everything I need to write.He also wrote these books, of course, but none of them are the focus. His focus—the skills of his life—is all on this "Siku Quanshu".Therefore, according to the summary of the general catalog of "Siku Quanshu" written by him, we know how great and knowledgeable this Ji Xiaolan is.And he himself is a cynical person.One of the most interesting legends is that if he cannot have sex with a girl (when he suddenly wants to have sex with a woman, there are no women left), his eyes will turn red and he will not be able to work.It is said that Emperor Qianlong specially prepared a room for him temporarily, prepared court ladies to let him have sex, and then continued to compile his "Siku Quanshu".such interesting people.He also became a symbolic high-ranking official in the Qing Dynasty, equivalent to a high-ranking official like the Minister of the Interior, so in addition to the summary of the "Siku Quanshu" in his book, there is another book left, called " Ji Wenda Gong Legacy Collection".This book is rare, I have it in my hand.I found that his thinking was newer than modern man's.

Let's read a passage of his, a passage he dedicated to the emperor, which expresses that girls have been subjected to violence and cannot be supported.The ancients paid attention to chastity, and girls were not allowed to have sex with people other than their husbands, nor could they be fucked by others.Therefore, we can see that some people are widowed after the death of their husbands. After they have been widowed for a long time, they will get a prize, and the prize is the chastity archway.The chastity archway cannot be erected by a cat or a dog. The chastity archway is for the widowed old lady and old mother for many years. Her son is powerful and powerful, so she can apply to the government for it to be erected. Ordinary people can't erect a chastity archway.Another kind is to rape you, you have to refuse, and if you rape you, you will die at the time—refuse to rape, and I will die, and this is only true.But there is a situation where the memorial archway is not set up.What's the situation?Why not stand up?It is the person who raped you. If he rapes successfully, he will not be appointed to you.

At this time, Ji Xiaolan, who is equivalent to the minister of the interior of the Qing Dynasty, wrote a letter to the emperor, and he told the emperor that he said that he was a model of integrity (that is, erecting a memorial archway, or the government issued to you saying, this woman is chaste, this woman refuses to be raped and dies), but To maintain the power of demeanor, according to the regulations of our Qing Dynasty, all women who refuse to be raped (I don't accept you who were raped and killed) are all agreed.However, if it is true that she refuses to be raped, and two or three thugs suddenly come, and she has no time to escape, kill herself, or beat her, what if she is raped or gang-raped?According to the standards of some governments, as long as the rape is successful, or the gang rape is successful, the government will not praise you.why?I feel that you are dirty if you are raped, and you are dirty if you have been fucked by a man.Therefore, Ji Xiaolan said that this is unfair to the girl. He said that she is "invincible" (she can't beat these people), not her fault (it's not that her determination to protect her chastity is not strong).Therefore, he thinks it is like saying that if a loyal minister and martyr swears not to follow a thief, but his four limbs are tied up with ropes and held by many hands, what should he do?For example, Wen Tianxiang is good, Wen Tianxiang, you don’t kneel, right? You don’t kneel when you stand in front of the people of the Yuan Dynasty, and the two people behind come out and step on the back of your knee, and once you step on it, you kneel down.Therefore, it does not mean that you Wen Tianxiang will surrender, but that your kneeling posture will appear.So Ji Xiaolan said, is it forced to kneel down? Is it called kneeling?

He cited this example to illustrate that a woman was raped, just like Wen Tianxiang was pushed down to his knees in a kneeling position. He would not surrender, and she would not be raped, but she couldn't stop this situation physically. What happened? Where is this girl?Therefore, Ji Xiaolan's conclusion is that when encountering such a situation, I hope the government will allocate quotas and take care of these girls, so as not to make them feel that they are not taken seriously.Think about it, what a new concept this mentality is! Just because you have been raped physically does not prove that you have been raped psychologically. This is a very new concept.

During the "May 4th" New Culture Movement, Hu Shi received a letter saying that a student's sister was snatched by bandits. Of course, rape happened after the snatching, and she was released later.The classmate asked Hu Shi, saying: This girl (my sister) came back after being raped, how should we treat this girl?Hu Shi said: If someone marries your sister, this kind of man, this kind of husband, we should respect him.what reason?You, a girl, are raped, and your physical loss is like a cut hand, just a little injury. Physically, there are no major changes, but your psychological changes are very serious.If there is such a man, he does not think that you have been raped or spoiled, or that you are dirty or not chaste. He does not have this concept and is still willing to marry you. We should respect this kind of man, because His mind is open.

In the era of Emperor Qianlong, Ji Xiaolan could have such a new idea, that is: whether this girl is a chaste martyr, whether she should set up a chastity memorial archway, and whether she can resist when she is raped are two different things.At that time, if you committed suicide or resisted death, you can set up a memorial archway, but there is no such thing as a girl who commits suicide or is unable to resist and is raped or gang-raped. We should also erect a memorial archway for her, or the government will issue a letter to her. We must affirm her.
