Xinhuanet Shijiazhuang, April 16 (Reporter Qi Leijie) Literary and historical workers in Linzhang County, Handan, Hebei Province recently discovered an imperial edict of Emperor Jiajing of the Ming Dynasty more than 411 years ago in Zhang Cun, Zhang Cun Township, the county. The content of this imperial edict is to hope that after the fifth daughter of Wang Zheng's wife of Guang 'an, the imperial clan of the Ming Dynasty, married Zhou Guofu, she would abide by the way of being a lady, purge the boudoir, not be arrogant and neglect, and be a model wife.
This imperial edict is made of silk. Due to the age, its color has become a little dim, and some parts of the imperial edict have worn out. On the silk, there are rows of neat small letters, and the last signature is December 12, Jiajing forty-four years (that is, AD 1565).
According to Huang Hao, an expert on literature and history in Linzhang County, the imperial edict begins with the saying that the emperor will carry the goods in Fengtian, rather than the imperial edict that is common in costume dramas. In ancient times, the proclamation of the emperor issuing orders to his subordinates was called imperial edict, and besides imperial edict, there were also books. The system was used by the emperor to express his gratitude and declare his officials. In general, when the imperial edict expresses the mighty meaning of the emperor's kindness, it begins with Fengtian's transportation and the emperor's system.
Zhou Jiaxing, a descendant of the Zhou family, said that according to the elders in the family, the Zhou family had many imperial edicts, but now only this original one has been preserved, which represents the family's glory, so the Zhou family has always kept it properly.
In addition, the Zhou family originally had an imperial edict for Zhou Bangyu, Zhou Guofu's brother, which was that Emperor Jiajing praised Zhou Bangyu's filial piety. But now there is no original imperial edict, only a photo of the imperial edict.
according to historical records, Zhou bang's character is beautiful and graceful, and his name is Sitai. His nature is simple and gentle, and he practices filial piety. At the age of 21, he studied in a private school in Linzhang County. At the age of 26, he was a student in the county town. At the age of 26, he taught luoshan county in Suizhou, Henan Province and Xinzhou, Runing Prefecture (the discipline was the official name of ancient civil servants in China). The imperial edict was received by Zhou Bangyu during his training.
