How bad is the palace defense in Jiaqing period? The people could easily enter the palace!

Today, the editor will bring you how bad the defense of the palace was in the period? I hope it can help you.

In the eighth year of Jiaqing’s leap in February, Jiaqing encountered an assassination incident outside the imperial garden on the way back to the palace. More than a hundred people accompanied him, but only six people went out to stop the murderers. The chieftain inquired the guards on the spot: "Is there more than a hundred bystanders, are there no relatives of mine, are they the servants of the nation's favor?" As soon as this matter came out, Jiaqing also realized that the defense of the palace was lax and the guards did not have their own Doing his job, he asked to strengthen access control. However, the incident of unrelated persons entering the palace again a year later, the emperor Jiaqing was angry that only less than four months later, someone broke into the palace again, and this time the person who broke into the palace also brought a murder weapon ——Iron Gun.

The incident happened in February of Jiaqing ten years Twenty, a commoner who claimed to be a Sami scriptor, with an iron gun, rushed directly to the Yongdao of Shenwumen. The generals and guards of Shenwumen ran and intercepted them as soon as they saw it. The man said nothing, facing the iron gun directly in his hand. The guards started to stab, and the two sides fought for a while in the Shenwumen. In the end, Sami Wen lost to the guards, and was defeated by the guards. Tutab, took the iron gun in his hand, and stab him with the weapon in his hand. The head, Sami Wen fell in the pool of blood and was killed on the spot, and four of the guards were chopped: the guard’s captain Shudang was cut off on the cap, the guard’s school was 84, and the forehead was seriously injured. The guards of Morgenbu cut their fingers. The four men who counted as professional soldiers were cut and injured by a little commoner. They are usually neglected to train and have poor ability.

Because of the timely response of the guards this time, the Emperor Jiaqing was still very satisfied because he did not allow Sami to really enter the Miyagi, and he was very satisfied with the four people who were cut and stabbed to death. The cloth carried out awards and gave them two silvers for promotion. Even though Mian Zuo, who manages it here, asked for punishment, Jia Qing did not pursue it. Anyway, the criminals were killed by the personnel managed by Mian Zuo, and after investigation, in Shenwu The guards on duty were either involved in assisting in the arrest of the criminals or guarding the gates. Those who did not abstain from work or passively slacken their work. They said that the guards on the day of the Shenwumen were not dealt with in any way.

However, human criminals can enter the Shenwu Gate In the area, there was no blockage before, indicating that the infantry officers and soldiers on duty outside the Shenwumen were at fault, so these infantry soldiers and their superiors were punished accordingly.

Naturally, things can’t stop here, who is Sami Wen, and why should he break into the palace with his arms? The investigation soon came out, and Fang Shunqiao and Gang were found on Sami Wen Two papers on the ticket in Shangzhen, and then according to the information on the ticket, Liu Shixing found Du Shi in Ducheng, Jizhou Weicheng County according to the records. According to the records, Liu Shixing had a hardcore gun in his family, and Liu Shixing himself took the iron in early February The gun disappeared after leaving home. It’s a big crime to break into the palace. Liu Shixing must have made it clear, so he used the false name “Sami Wen” deliberately, but his family was still arrested. Liu Wenlian, Liu, and the wife of the reciprocal offender Liu Xian all testified that their ("Sami Wen") is no doubt right for Liu Shixing."

Jiaqing’s overall handling of this incident It is quite satisfactory, as can be seen from the punished people, who only asked the soldiers and officers of the foot camp outside Shenwumen, as well as Weicheng County, some people may ask, why is this county order wrong? As a result, the county magistrate did not even know that Liu Shixing was a dangerous weapon such as the Tibetan iron gun. "Country magistrate Liu used the privately-held bird guns forbidden by law and failed to get up early." Source: Interest History
