The emperor wrote to Wei Zi.

In ancient China, every dynasty formulated many systems in order to make the world peaceful and people live and work in peace and contentment. In fact, in ancient times, unless there was a prosperous and peaceful dynasty, the people's lives were very sad, especially when they encountered unjust, false and wrong cases. The Qing Dynasty reached the peak of feudal monarchy with strict hierarchy. It is very difficult for people to go to Beijing to declare the imperial edict, which not only costs a lot, but also risks their lives.

First, it is very dangerous. A little carelessness will endanger life. When we watched Princess Zhu Huan, we saw that the swallow was shot by Mei's arrow and helped Wei Zi deliver the letter. Although it is very dramatic and generally not so direct, it can still be seen that it is difficult for ordinary people to get close to the king. Because the king often has a lot of guards around him, he usually won't let others near him. After all, it was necessary to prevent foreign assassinations. If the king sees it, he will not be given another chance, but it is still very dangerous.

Second, the cost is huge. For most ordinary people, income basically meets daily expenses. However, if they encounter false and wrongful cases, they will suffer first, and then spend time and energy preparing the imperial edict, which will take a lot of time. Secondly, if you have to travel long distances to the Forbidden City, it will be a huge expense. The imperial court often encourages Beijing to control, and there are many government fees, such as the supervision department and the General Political Department, because there are many corrupt officials.

In fact, if the people really have grievances, sometimes it will involve the interests of the intermediate government, so it is difficult for high-level people to complain because their class status is very low. Therefore, even if there are many systems and the power of the king is too concentrated, it is still impossible to prevent the villain. Therefore, in today's era of ruling the country according to law, many things are open and fair, and there are many channels for complaints. We should thank this era.
