Let's talk about the corrupt rule of the late Yuan and serious social crisis. Below I will list some of the causes of these factors.
1, the Mongolian aristocrats and bureaucrats to seize land in order to "give fields" form
Yuan Figure merger with serious, when the Mongol nobility into the Central Plains, they wantonly seize the land as pasture, the late Yuan this phenomenon is even more serious. Not only that they are from the Han landlords also learned a new skill levy rent to farmers. Why the late yuan more acute social contradictions give me a single field from this point of view, at the time of Kublai generally not more than a hundred ares, very few give one thousand ares Tian Yuan Dynasty not only decadent aristocracy but also greedy, until the Yuan Shun when Emperor, gave one thousand ares Tian have become common, and even gave the field a total of more than ten thousand ares, they exploit to farmers by way of tenancy, but doing we did not rent a grain acres of land was as high as 4 stone, that but that does not hybridize cut in productivity is not high when so onerous rent, really suck the lifeblood of farmers in general exploitation.
2, monasteries and Han landlords annexation of land
Mongolians tried to use religion to paralyze the people, the country is the Yuan Dynasty temples everywhere, very much the number of monk, the late Yuan Dynasty is malignant development. For example, Baiyun Zong Ren extended for six years, Chen Mingren total intake as much as 10 million people. Of course, these so-called monks, most of the big landlords and tenants temple, we can see the strength of the temple was rampant. Colleagues say the Yuan government has allocated a lot of land the monastery its very alarming figures, such as Shandong Yuan emperor period will be allocated 160 002 thousand hectares of land a few big for St. Edward Temple. But do not just rely on land owned by the monastery thanks to government land, these temples are increasingly becoming more greedy big landlords were usurpations, another example to Dade three years, according to statistics of the Central Secretariat Jiangnan various monasteries point and more than 50 million. At the same time squeezing farmers and annexation of land there is a group of Han landlords, rich room has led to shelter slaves to make plays Wang Min who frequently heavenly home, a number of ten thousand persons. Finally led us to close one million cups of millet, while the small cap Min Jie no possession, the poor poorer, the rich richer. Case.
3, a heavy burden on farmers
Under the oppression 4 square merger frenzy of the Mongolian aristocrats, bureaucrats, landlords and monasteries, many farmers lost their land have become the tenant of the landlord, history books, wrote as follows, south tenant has no more capacity, all kinds of land to wealthy tenant , break up grain in order to fully gauge the age. When under the weight like this, living in Jiejue difficult Whenever there is a temporary shortage or apology on the occasion of flood and drought, it had a loan shark to landlords, merchants, suffer to Qiucheng, hard-earned food a year, in addition to field main points by outside, give compensation, the principal and interest still more not enough, even the population to resist, quasi-fold thing, that escape from home, Tsuchida abandoned. Do the following provisions from the law, landlords were beaten dead Dianke, staff one hundred seven levy burn 50 silver buried two. This provision gives the power of the landlords landlords can sleep without having to pay the penalty kill Dianke from the law
4, national oppression policy
Mongol rulers in order to consolidate their political power firmly in control of the Han Chinese officials and an official of the number of Penan This situation is not so serious only during the reign of Kublai Khan, after having reached the Han Chinese and the Penan are not in North Korea Crown point, I am here to quote a poem to give you a taste miserable situation and the situation of the yuan and Han Chinese was funny how a man from the north off, teenage beauty Yan. Embroidered with white, gold horse saddle. Holding the whip Yi Hao You, emotional light Okayama. Zhang Yun from gold helmet, grandfather Zhu streamers do not know the words are twenty to officials. City people were Zijie, lined parallel divergent view. How poor Lane disabilities, obsessed among books. Year after year to shoot policy, still are old Confucian crown. Han Chinese and Mongol rulers in order to prevent Penan resistance, the bad good bye to use weapons destruction, but also provides the Penan Han Chinese may not hold inch iron. There are no traffic regulations so people can not leave their home for life, but also slept no unauthorized absence from his troops, and offenders cut.
Chinese family name patience is ah, when you press unlimited limited, plus the dollar feels like you are the owner he was off, plus the policy of national oppression under the joint effect of these multiple pressures, when you are dead anyway, when people have become like a dog alive when the luxury, then just for some reason a lot of people together, plus a little bit of an excuse or scream, it will erupt peasant uprising.
