Qin and Han Dynasties: A husband should be punished for hurting his wife. According to the laws of Qin, women can have equal status with their husbands in some aspects. If the husband commits adultery, the wife will kill him with impunity.
A husband who beats his wife, causing her ears to be torn, or her limbs to be broken, and fights with ordinary people, causing facial and physical injuries, will also be punished, and will not be alleviated because of female jealousy or any other reasons.
Three Kingdoms: After Liu Beixi, the first person sentenced to death for domestic violence in history, moved to Yizhou to replace Liu Zhang, Zhuge Liang, who was in charge of internal affairs at that time, made a law called Shuk. It stipulates that the law will severely punish men who commit domestic violence against women. If officials and soldiers have domestic violence, the punishment will be even greater.
According to historical records, on the first day of the first month in 234 AD, Hou's wife Hu Shi entered the palace to congratulate the Queen Mother on the Spring Festival. It has always been an unwritten rule of Shu Han that the wives or mothers of China New Year officials go to the harem to congratulate the Queen Mother.
The queen mother liked Hu very much and kept her in the palace for a month. Hu is very beautiful, and she is suspected of having an affair with her late ruler. When Hu returned home, he tortured her, made 500 soldiers beat her and hit her in the face with their shoes, then divorced her and drove Hu out of the house. Hu Jiang, who was deeply wronged, sued the law enforcement department and accused him of domestic violence. The evidence of Ada's violent crime was initially determined to be conclusive, so he was arrested and imprisoned.
Liu Chan finally ruled that "a person who is not a wife is not a respectable place." It means that soldiers don't ask you to hit your wife, nor do they ask you to hit your face with shoes. Ada was sentenced to death and died in the street.
Ada is, of course, a senior official of Shu Han. A senior official was sentenced to death for domestic violence, which was the first recorded case in ancient China. Ada became the first person sentenced to death for domestic violence in China history.
Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties: During the Wei, Jin and Southern and Northern Dynasties, data showed that there were laws against marriage and domestic violence at that time, but women did more harm to their husbands than ordinary people. At this time, the punishment between husband and wife is different.
Don: Punishment embodies the difference between men and women. There are obvious differences in the punishment provisions for violence between husband and wife in Tang Law.
In the Tang law, violence between husband and wife is stipulated according to four different criminal circumstances: swearing, beating, injury and killing.
The husband "beats his wife and lowers the second class of mortals;" The deceased is based on mortals. " And think that "killing a wife is still' disharmony'". "
However, "the wife beat her husband for a year; Seriously injured, third-degree injury; If you need a husband to tell you, you should sit down. Dead man, hey. "
But Shu also said that "a wife is also neat."
Song: In order to get rid of domestic violence, Li Qingzhao went to prison to deal with domestic violence. The most famous woman in history is Li Qingzhao. /kloc-at the age of 0/8, Li Qingzhao married Zhao Mingcheng, who was a student and prime minister of Tingzhi Zhao. 1 129, Zhao Mingcheng died in Huzhou, and nearly 30 years of happy marriage ended.
At that time, the Northern Song Dynasty perished, and wars continued. Li Qingzhao was homeless and physically and mentally haggard. At this time, a man named Zhang Ruzhou appeared beside her and took care of her in every way. Soon, they got married. After the marriage, Zhang Ruzhou found that Li Qingzhao was unwilling to give Zhang Ruzhou the cultural relics she carried with her. He became angry from embarrassment and punched Li Qingzhao. Therefore, Li Qingzhao decided to divorce Zhang Ruzhou and denounced Zhang Ruzhou's crime of bullying the monarch.
However, according to the Song Law, if a wife accuses her husband, even if the accusation is true, she will be sentenced to "two years in prison", that is, two years in prison. The end of the story is that Li Qingzhao won the divorce lawsuit and Zhang Ruzhou was sent to Liuzhou. And Li Qingzhao went to prison. Fortunately, someone came to help. Li Qingzhao symbolically spent nine days in prison and finally got rid of the domestic violence man.
Ming and Qing Dynasties: The man who killed his wife strangled his husband and killed his wife. According to the laws of Ming and Qing Dynasties, the strangulation of a man who killed his wife is lighter than that of a man who killed his wife.
The wife deliberately killed her husband, and both the Ming and Qing dynasties were sentenced to death that year.
Even if a wife kills her husband by mistake, it is a capital crime. However, if the husband kills his wife by mistake, the law will not ask.
Divorce caused by violence is explained by the law of "wives beating husbands" in the Qing Law:
"Gough is a wife, and a wife should be a husband."
"If a wife beats her husband, she should be guilty, and it is ok to listen to her husband intermittently."
"The husband killed his wife. Although the husband deserved it and the wife didn't divorce her husband, she still had to interrogate the couple first. Husband is willing, wife is unwilling, wife is willing, husband is unwilling, and they are not allowed to divorce. "
