Problem:
People call Chongwenmen Hadmen. Which is more famous, Hadmen or Chongwenmen?
Analysis:
Chongwenmen was called Hadmen as early as the Yuan Dynasty, commonly known as Wenmingmen, and now Chongwenmen was renamed in the Ming and Qing Dynasties.
Generally, old Beijing will call it Ha (three tones) Demen
Several pieces of information:
1. Hadmen, also known as Wenmingmen and Haidaimen, was founded in 1268 and has gone through the Yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties. "Wine Road" is the ultimate achievement in Chinese wine culture. Homophony is also called "Hadamen" and officially called "Chongwenmen". It is known as the "lucky gate" because talented people must pass the exam, and it is also known as the "wealth gate" because of the establishment of the tax department here in the Ming and Qing Dynasties. It is one of the famous houses in Kyoto. Because of the reputation of a famous family, many merchants realize its value and actively develop Hadmen culture. Among them, Qingdao Haidaimen Liquor-making Co., Ltd. registered the "Hademen" liquor trademark for liquor marketing, and the well-known "Hademen cigarette" in China has a history of more than 8 years and is a national famous brand product.
2. Chongwen Gate is one of the nine old gates in Beijing. In the Yuan Dynasty, it was called Civilization Gate, commonly known as "Hademen" and "Sea Loan Gate". It is famous in Kyoto for its
Zhenhai Iron Turtle in Zhenhai Temple in the left head of Wengcheng. At the same time, it also makes people "daunting" because of the harsh tax clearance.
the tax clearance in Qing dynasty was "household clearance" (department store tax was levied. It belongs to the Ministry of Household Affairs) and "Gongguan" (the collection of bamboo and wood boat notes belongs to the Ministry of Industry
). And the country * * * set up 43 households. Chongwenmen is the only gate in the capital area. Its official address
is located on the former site of Hadmen Hotel, which faces south and was prominent in Qing Dynasty. There are two supervisors, one for the left wing and one for the right wing. Are served by the current Minister of the Interior or Assistant Minister of Shangshu. And the secretary of the Ministry of internal affairs will help
with customs affairs. There is the royal general manager of the internal affairs office to intervene. It goes without saying that this is a fat job. Naturally, no doubt.
since it is a fat deficiency, it will never flow out. Any official who can catch this vacancy is a close relative of the emperor. They form a party for personal gain
, and their interests are shared, and officials protect each other. Even with the supreme ruler, they formed a fat group, and their relationship network was linked with each other, < P > crisscrossed. Therefore, the Qing Dynasty Chongwenmen, "the son of heaven favored. I am self-satisfied. "
The official system in feudal society was determined by the nature of the ruling class, and Chongwenmen Pass had "regulations". It is manifested in
princesses and eunuchs. Chongwenmen Pass in the Qing Dynasty gave "powder money"-12, pieces of snow silver to the empresses who moved in.
Yuan Shikai and his successive presidents followed in his footsteps.
"I look forward to your kindness, and I will be honored at the end of the year.". This remark comes from the eunuch in the palace, that is, every year when the year is approaching, he worships
Wenmen Pass to give money to the internal affairs office to distribute the "father-in-law" in the palace. Naturally, he has a short hand in accepting bribes, so he put in a good word
in the holy place, "to wake up the day and listen".
since it is fat, how fat is it? Two examples are enough to illustrate. He Shen, the power minister in Qianlong Dynasty, once supervised Chongwen Gate. "He Shen fell, Jiaqing had enough to eat" shows that He Shen is fat! Gui Xiang, the biological father of Long Yu, the younger brother of Cixi,
was recommended as the governor of Chongwenmen Pass after Yuan Shikai was appointed as the governor of Zhili, and it took only one year to get immediate results. The mansion was renovated
, and happily said, "The rest of my life is finally over." It can be seen that the fat is flowing, and as for the "disaster" of flying around, that is the last word.
the top beam is not straight and the bottom beam is crooked. Old cats sleep in the room and pass it on from generation to generation. Chongwenmen tax was held at the foot of the emperor Lao Zi, and it was a common practice to blackmail people without fear. Even the Mongolian maharaja "Nianban" went to Beijing, but he dared to pluck the hair, and even made an incident of extorting foreign envoys. As for the business people, they are the meat of the world, and there is nowhere to avenge. Therefore, this
place of bribing, accepting bribes and distributing fat oppresses the good and makes people hate it.
After a long time, the capital has two allegorical sayings about Chongwenmen Pass: "Chongwenmen Pass is an errand-made a fortune" and "Chongwenmen Pass's big scale can't weigh you". Because the private goods in Chongwenmen are taxed, the public goods are not taxed, so there is a two-part allegorical saying that "respecting the big scale of Wenmen-saying that private goods are not public".
After the Revolution of 1911, Chongwenmen Pass was still a prominent fat job in Beiyang. In 1924, Feng Yuxiang launched the "Beijing Political < P > Change" and instructed the Regent Cabinet to cancel the Chongwenmen Pass. All the citizens applauded, which was a < P > great event in China's tax history, a feat and worth reading.
