The promulgation of this child protection law has unsurprisingly caused great discussion.
Since the last time the court changed the rules of the king to the minister and the father to the son to the king, the minister, the father, the son, the people of the Ming Dynasty have been greatly touched.
And now the Child Protection Law stipulates that parents who accidentally punish their children and cause their children to die must be sentenced to ten years of hard labor.
This has made many people unable to sit still.
Aren't their children beaten whenever they want?
Let’s talk about the drowning of a baby girl.
Many people think that they can’t afford to give birth to a baby girl.
In order to prevent the baby from suffering, what’s the problem with letting her leave this world safely when she is just born and her intelligence is not yet developed?
These ideas were published in newspapers, and Zhu Youxiao wrote an article in the name of Mr.
Xiao Qi, refuting these views: Children are not the property of their parents.
I believe every normal Ming Dynasty person will realize that. at this point.
Children are the continuation of their parents’ lives.
They have souls and thoughts.
They are human beings just like you.
They are not like cattle and horses that you can manipulate and slaughter at will.
Some people say they drown baby girls because they cannot afford to raise them after giving birth.
Why does this sound so awkward?
You can afford to raise a baby boy.
A baby girl eats more and wears more clothes than a baby boy.
Raising a baby now only requires two stones, meters and a few feet of cloth for a year.
If you can't afford these things, don't give birth.
She didn't ask you to give birth to her.
To take a step back, if you don’t have the ability to support people, you immigrate.
There are a lot of vacant lands that are uncultivated.
As long as you go there, you can get fifty acres of land or more.
Why don’t you go?
To take a step back, if you don’t have the ability to support people, send them to a nursery.
Won't take your money.
We should have enough reverence for life.
When you are about to drown a baby girl, think about what you would think if you were the one who was drowned.
Mencius said: Everyone has a heart of compassion.
If you destroy a life so viciously, where is your compassion?
Can you still be considered a human being?
Life is given by God, so only God can take it away.
Our thinking is about to change.
It has become a thing of the past that upright officials cannot handle household affairs.
Now the court will start to take care of your household affairs.
Ming Dynasty is composed of families.
If the family is healthy, then Ming Dynasty will certainly be healthy too.
If there are problems in the family, then of course there will be problems in Ming Dynasty.
There is a very good saying in the Child Protection Law.
After all babies in the Ming Dynasty were born, their right to life was immediately protected by the Ming Emperor.
If you kill newborn babies for no reason, the emperor can make you do hard labor or even execute you according to the law.
I think this is the most fair and reasonable method.
Finally, I would like to say that how to establish a healthy and normal relationship between the upper and lower generations is really worth thinking about for every Ming Dynasty person.

Changing ideas is an extremely slow process.
Zhu Youxiao knows this, so he first uses legal means to force some people to accept certain ideas.
He really can't wait for decades or hundreds of years to change some people's disregard for life. concept.
However, the current Ming Dynasty can be said to be the best era since the founding of the People's Republic of China.
Except for Yunnan and Guizhou, all other provinces have basically solved the problem of food and clothing.
Even in the two provinces of Yunnan and Guizhou, only those ethnic minorities who were dissatisfied with Wang Hua and unwilling to go down the mountain had not been solved.
Regarding this, Zhu Youxiao could only say that there was no way, while the officials of the Ming Dynasty felt that it would be better if they were unwilling to go down the mountain.
Well, what should I do if I get full and rebel again after going down the mountain?
Now that the law is enacted, next year will be a difficult one for the courts.
A large number of cases will be piled up on the court docket, and the judges will receive a lot of boos.
The officials of the Ministry of Agriculture will be a little relieved, because a large number of laborers will soon enter the labor camps in various places, which will enable the Ministry of Agriculture to complete the land reclamation task as soon as possible.
The debate in the newspapers continued as usual, and more officials began to express their views on child protection laws.
Yang Lian, speaking as the Minister of Agriculture, said: "In the second year of Tianqi, there were more than 90 million acres of cultivated land in the entire Ming Dynasty, and the total population of the country at that time was 98 million people.
By the ninth year of Tianqi, the cultivated land in the Ming Dynasty had already It exceeds one hundred thousand acres, and The overseas cultivated land has reached 86 million acres.
We have tried many ways to increase the cultivated land, such as making better tools, buying more cattle and horses to assist in farming, and promoting new agricultural technologies, but these cannot be achieved. in a very short time It has a great effect, so in the final analysis, more people are needed to farm.
If you kill a child, your Ming Dynasty will lose a strong labor force in more than ten years.
If you kill a baby girl, your Ming Dynasty will lose more than ten years of labor.
One or more children will be missing in the future.
I do not condemn this behavior from a moral or legal perspective.
I only look at this matter from the perspective of agricultural development in the Ming Dynasty and the food production that everyone needs, and I can conclude that, Harming children is a crime against the entire Ming Dynasty.”
Yang He expressed his opinion as the Minister of Education: "A child who has received basic education will understand that as a Minghan person, he should have his own pride and pride, as well as his own persistence and upbringing.
He will know how to treat his parents and relatives in daily life, how to deal with strangers, and learn simple calculations.
Even more difficult.
Our Emperor once said that the mother is the first person a child sees in this world, and she is also the first teacher for the child’s entire life.
If you educate a woman well, you educate a family well.
Those executioners who drowned baby girls, those short-sighted people who do not allow girls to receive education, you are destroying the future of the Ming Dynasty.
Ten years of hard labor is too little.
He should be sentenced to life-long hard labor and use his hard labor to atone for his sins."
Bi Ziyan, the Minister of Household Affairs, wrote: "From the first year of Tianqi to the ninth year of Tianqi, the population of Ming Dynasty increased from 96 million to 111 million.
The source of the increase in population is from two aspects.
One is Because of the increase in food production and advances in medicine, people's life expectancy has increased.
The number of births is the most important, accounting for more than 80% of the total increase.
Therefore, if we want to increase the population, It requires us not to let a child die unexpectedly due to reasons other than disease.
His Majesty the Emperor led us to conquer more and more places, but ended up wasting it because there were not enough people to occupy it.
This is a disservice to our future generations.
A crime, this is a crime against the entire Ming Dynasty, and it is a crime against our Chinese nation.
Our Ministry of Household Affairs strongly supports the child protection law and hopes to increase the punishment for offenders. " The statements of many officials have made ordinary people think about whether they are thinking too narrowly.
It also made more people start to reflect.
Thinking is always beneficial, especially after linking this law with the future of Ming Dynasty, that is, the future of their own families, many opponents figured out a lot of things and changed their stance. , turned to support the law.
Of course, for Zhu Youxiao, let's discuss it.
I know what to do rightly because I have more than three hundred years of experience than you.
I just have to get the law enacted and force you to obey it.
It doesn't matter whether you understand it now or not.
History will tell your descendants that I am right
