The difference between concubines and concubines

The differences between concubines and concubines include different meanings, different titles, different inheritance rights, different status and treatment, and different marriage or not.

First, the meaning is different.

1. Divorce is a child born to a wife. In ancient China, monogamy and concubinage were practiced, and the word "engagement" refers to children born to "wives". A child born to a wife is called the first child, a boy is called Di Zi, and a girl is called Dinv.

2. Obsession refers to all concubines, concubines and other children except his wife. These are collectively called concubines. Due to the patriarchal clan system, although they are both fathers, their social status is very different.

Second, the title is different.

1. The difference between Uncle Di and Di Zi is that he should call his mother his mother to show his status.

2. Children born out of wedlock may not call their biological mothers "mothers", but only "aunts". Moreover, not only the people, but also the royal family. Concubines can only call their biological mothers aunts-no matter how high they are in the harem.

Third, different inheritance rights.

1. In ancient feudal families, only the eldest son could inherit his father's wealth and status. The core of patriarchal clan system is the eldest son inheritance system, that is, the eldest son has the right to inherit.

In feudal families, illegitimate children have no right to inherit. Whether it is succession to the throne, the duke or the throne, it needs the eldest son to inherit, and illegitimate children have no inheritance right in theory.

Fourth, the status and treatment are different.

1. Di Zi's position in the family is supreme, and he enjoys the right of inheritance, including inheriting basic property and rights. He is the head of the family, and the child born is the future master of this family.

2. An illegitimate child must obey his son unconditionally and always approach slaves. When it comes to people, people are more obedient and effective. Moreover, after the illegitimate child's biological mother died, she had no right to arrange her mother's funeral, so she had to leave it to her eldest son.

Five, whether to get married is different.

1. For the first daughter, the family will find her a suitable family marriage with high status and good treatment. This is an ancient family marriage to stabilize the family and society.

2. Before Wei and Jin Dynasties, ordinary women had no chance to get married alone. They usually marry their first sisters, first cousins, first aunts and first aunts to become wives. In fact, it is to help the family control the man's blood. After Wei and Jin Dynasties, ordinary women could get married alone because they could get married downwards and have the same educational opportunities.

Distinguish between duties and common reasons.

It is the need of patriarchal clan system to distinguish truth from commonness. Patriarchal clan system is a system that measures all values by "consanguinity", including the most important political status and personal identity. In a patriarchal society, modesty is the most basic, universal and essential core. To put it simply, the son of the first wife is called Di, and the son of the second wife is called Shu.

Seven. Introduce patriarchal clan system

1. Patriarchal clan system evolved from patriarchal clan system, which is a system in which the royal family and nobles distribute state power according to blood relationship in order to establish hereditary rule. It is characterized by the combination of clan organization and state organization, and the patriarchal hierarchy is completely consistent with the political hierarchy.

2. The patriarchal clan system was established in Xia Dynasty, developed in Shang Dynasty and completed in Zhou Dynasty, which influenced the later feudal dynasty. According to the patriarchal clan system of the Zhou Dynasty, clans were divided into large and small clans. Zhou Wang claimed to be the son of heaven, calling himself the greatest Sect in the world. Except for the eldest son, all the sons of the son of heaven were made princes. The vassal was a small clan to Tiandi, but it was a big clan in his feudal country. The prince's other sons were named Doctor Qing.
