In order to avoid being punished, I asked His Majesty to speak, but as a commoner, if he wanted to see the emperor again after today, it would not be much easier than going to heaven.

That's why he took the risk, grabbed the microphone, and said it directly.

"Do you know that you will be punished for doing this?" Zhu You asked on the city wall,

"I know, before your Majesty came, those gods had already said that if you snatch the microphone at will, you will be punished with thirty rods.

The ordinary people who snatched the microphone are indeed guilty. If they must be punished, the ordinary people have nothing to say, but the ordinary people know that His Majesty is an emperor who loves the people. In recent years, under the leadership of His Majesty, the lives of ordinary people like us have become better and better.

Therefore, ordinary people cannot allow this *** to leave a stain on His Majesty. "

The old man said.

As the old man said, even Zhu Youjian was embarrassed and hit the opponent.

Three Obediences and Four Virtues: These are the moral qualities that women should have from ancient China to before liberation. The Three Obediences are to obey (obey) the father before marrying, to obey (assist) the husband when married, and to (raise) children after the husband dies. The Four Virtues refer to women’s virtues, women’s words, Women's appearance, women's merit (women's moral character, speech, manners, female beauty).

The moral standards set for women in ancient times. Criteria for men to choose wives.

Regarding the "Three Obediences and Four Virtues", these requirements and norms for women were created out of certain needs in a specific era, and have also undergone some changes with the changes in society.

After the establishment of patriarchal marriage and family in the Zhou Dynasty and the clear definition of the internal and external boundaries between men and women, the "three obediences" moral code came into being that required women to obey their father, husband, and son, that is, the female role in the family should obey men.

The "Four Virtues" are the etiquette, demeanor and operational skills that women must have to practice the "Three Obediences" moral goal. The interaction between the moral precepts and praises of the "Three Obeys", the promotion and training of the "Four Virtues", and the intimidation and punishment of the "Seven Outs" gradually disciplined the virtues of traditional women under the influence of Confucian culture.

With the passage of time, patriarchal control over women has gradually given way to husband's authority. The interests of the husband's family are higher than the interests of the father's family. Silence and sacrifice are more emphasized on women. The regulations have become more specific and detailed, and the price women have to pay for them has also increased. More.

But it should also be noted that under the overall cultural framework of Confucianism, the "three obediences and four virtues" emphasize that when "obeying the father" is emphasized, one also needs to obey the mother; when emphasizing obeying the husband, the wife should also "be equal to her husband." In particular, the promotion of "filial piety culture" and the respect and filial piety a son pays to his mother, especially his widowed mother, are also uniquely Chinese.

In Confucian filial piety, under the concept that "family affairs are women's business," many men don't care about family affairs. They say they love their mother, but actually they have never done anything for her; coupled with the idea of ​​"living with their husbands," When you get married, you automatically assume that your wife is the labor force of your family of origin, so you think that you are responsible for continuing to enjoy the fruits of your mother's labor, and your daughter-in-law is responsible for compensating your mother for her hard work.

As for the "Four Virtues", the emphasis on women's moral character, appearance, speech and cultivation can be replaced by new content of the times (such as "Virtue" focusing on the cultivation of civility and courtesy, "Words" and "Gong" focusing on the cultivation of talents and creativity, "Appearance" focusing on the cultivation of talents and creativity, "Four Virtues" Appropriate attention to grooming without deliberately putting on makeup and beauty, etc.) is also of great reference significance. ,

However, although this kind of thing has advantages, it also has disadvantages. People should be equal. The three obediences and four virtues directly restrict the status of women.
