In the Qing dynasty, can you really get rid of the death penalty and do whatever you want by wearing a royal yellow jacket?

? How is that possible? People think too much about this yellow jacket. In fact, it doesn't do whatever it wants, and it can't exempt you from all the death sentences. At that time, the role of yellow jacket could only exempt you from the general big sin. Some death sentences are still troublesome. For example, if you want to rebel, and then the rebellion fails, the emperor will kill you. If you wear a yellow jacket, can the emperor not kill you?

As it is, how can you do whatever you want? The function of the yellow jacket is that, to a certain extent, if you make a mistake, you can put on the yellow jacket to protect you once. Unlike what the internet says, you can do whatever you want. If you wear a yellow jacket, the world will be in chaos.

In fact, I think the impression of yellow jacket may be more from movies and TV series. For example, Stephen Chow put on a yellow jacket when he wanted to behead in Sesame Officer. At that time, he said that no one could do anything to him and no one could kill him, so the audience's impression was that the yellow jacket seemed omnipotent. Even if he is beheaded, he can be forgiven.

But if your family commits the crime of deceiving the emperor, it is not very big, but also for the good of the emperor. In this case, the emperor said on the surface that he would cut you, but in fact he wanted you to have a yellow jacket to offset it, so that you could give the world an account and lose the emperor's face. It's not the so-called yellow jacket that you can do whatever you want after killing and setting fire. This is the real function of the yellow jacket.

So having said so much, do you have an answer in your heart? So don't bring too many plots in TV dramas into history.
