Is there anything special about every knife executed by Ling Chi in ancient times?

Ling Chi is also known as Ling Chi, that is, the folk say "a thousand knives". Ling Chi, used in the name of the death penalty, refers to the execution of a person's flesh with a knife, which is a kind of dismemberment punishment, that is, including the cutting and separation of the limbs of the body. An authentic executioner Ling Chi master, said that cutting a catty and cutting it down with a knife will never be fifteen taels.

"Ling Chi" is mainly set up for people who have committed "great rebellion" and "rebellion" such as rebellion, rebellion, and "verbal rebellion".

Ling Chi is a kind of punishment of dismemberment, that is, it involves the cutting and separation of the limbs of the body. The ** taken in the last years of the Qing Dynasty shows a real "Eight Swords Execution" execution. Eight knives, the executioner uses a basket of numbered sharp knives:

The first is to cut the chest (starting from the left side, and the same applies to the rest of the following areas); the second knife, cut the biceps; the third knife, the thigh; The fourth and fifth knives, cut the arm to the elbow; 6th and 7th knives, cut the calf to the knee; The eighth knife, the head of the owl. The dismembered remains were placed in a basket, and the head was displayed in public for an indefinite period of time. This is the practice of the last years of the Qing Dynasty, and is generally commonly known as "sixteen knives", "thirty-two knives", "three hundred and sixty knives" ......However, we do not know whether these numbers are real or if they are just imaginary.

The "knife" in the Ming Dynasty had the meaning of cutting and "many", and the number was cumulative, and the execution time was extended. In 1510, the eunuch Liu Jin was suspected of conspiracy and rebellion and was sentenced to three days of "chopping", but he died the next day. This is a special case in which the eunuch was punished with capital punishment for hatred, and was sentenced to the heaviest crime of treason; The "History of the Ming Dynasty" did not mention that Liu Jin was tortured by "Ling Chi", but "imprisoned in the city", which belonged to the form of "abandoning the city", and clearly stated that the execution must be carried out publicly.

Legal analysis: The most people who were executed by Ling Chi in history were cut 3,600 times.

Zheng Man, the Ming Dynasty's Tianqi Jinshi and the Jishi of the Hanlin Academy, was framed by Wen Tiren during the Chongzhen period, and was executed by "Ling Chi" for "unfilial piety of the cane mother", and was chopped with 3,600 knives.

Ling Chi was executed, and the name of the punishment was first seen in the Liao Dynasty. "Ling Chi", commonly known as "a thousand cuts", is the most cruel punishment in China's feudal society. "Ling Chi" is mainly set up for people who commit "great rebellion" and "rebellion" such as rebellion, rebellion, and "verbal rebellion".

Ling Chi was mainly used to execute political prisoners who endangered the interests of the feudal ruling class. The execution method of "Ling Chi" is to cut the prisoner into pieces and make him die in extreme pain, so that those heroes who claim that "their heads are no more than a big scar" want to die quickly but can't, which has a certain deterrent effect.

Legal basis: Criminal Law of the People's Republic of China

Article 33: The types of principal punishments are as follows: (1) controlled release; (2) short-term detention; (3) fixed-term imprisonment; (4) Life imprisonment; (5) The death penalty.

Article 35: Expulsion may be applied independently or additionally to foreigners who have committed crimes.

However, the Ming Dynasty general Yuan Chonghuan was cut 3,543 times, and he died unjustly first, which was the most and most miserable in history

It is to wrap the body in a fishing net, and to cut the flesh exposed in the hole, and when the number of knives is prescribed, it must be exactly dead, otherwise one more knife or one less knife will have to be made up on the executioner himself.

I believe that there is, King Xu, Qin Shi Huang, and Emperor Yang of Sui should have done it!

Ling Chi is also known as Ling Chi, that is, the folk say "a thousand knives". The original meaning of Ling Chi was not to punish, but to refer to the gradual reduction of the slope of the mountain, and to the execution of the death penalty, it meant that the flesh of the person was cut off with a knife during the execution, so that the victim died slowly and painfully.

Ling Chi punishment first appeared in the Five Dynasties period, officially set as the name of the sentence in Liao, before that, the Tang Dynasty has repeatedly recorded, "History of the Song Dynasty" criminal law said: Ling Chi is "the first to cut off its limbs, is to eliminate its hyper." "Kang" refers to the throat, so it seems that Ling Chi in the Song Dynasty was a kind of dismemberment, not circumcision.

Since then, the Jin, Yuan, Ming, and Qing dynasties have all stipulated statutory punishments, which are the most cruel death sentences. This kind of criminal law is mainly used to punish some of the crimes of the "Ten Evils", such as rebellion, rebellion, and so on. However, in order to suppress the peasant rebellion, those who did not pay taxes on time were also punished with Ling Chi, which was especially prominent during the Ming Taizu period.

In the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty, if you beat and scolded your parents or in-laws, your son killed her father, and her wife killed her husband, it was also a serious crime of ethics and morality, and she was sentenced to Ling Chi.

The method of execution was cruel, and it is generally described as cutting off pieces of flesh from a person's body. There are also differences in the execution methods in the past dynasties, generally cutting eight knives, first cutting the head and face, then the hands and feet, then the chest and abdomen, and finally the head. But in fact, there are more than eight knives, and the Qing Dynasty had twenty-four knives, thirty-six knives, seventy-two knives and one hundred and twenty knives.

The twenty-four knives are: one or two knives cut the eyebrows, three or four knives cut the shoulders, five or six knives cut the breasts, seven or eight knives cut the hands and between the two elbows, nine or ten knives cut off the two elbows and the part between the shoulders, ten.

1. Twelve knives cut off the flesh of the legs, ten.

3. Fourteen knives cut the two legs, fifteen knives stabbed the heart, sixteen knives cut the head, ten.

Seven, eighteen knives cut both hands, ten.

Nine, twenty knives cut two wrists, two.

Ten. One, twenty-two knife cut feet, two.

Ling Chi's punishment lasted until the end of the Qing Dynasty. After the Wuxu Reform, the imperial court was forced to make some policy changes. In the thirty-first year of Guangxu (1905), it was ordered that Ling Chi and the beheadings and corpses should be "deleted forever and all changed and beheaded". From then on, Ling Chi was replaced by beheading.

Ling Chi is a kind of extremely cruel criminal law, that is, the folk so-called tens of millions of slashes, the torturer is extremely painful and unbearable, this criminal law is to the torturer's methods and technical requirements are very high, can not be tortured to death without cutting off, if he dies, it is the failure of the torturer.

Ling Chi probably slowly cut the flesh and cut enough 1000 knives before dying It is very technically demanding and it is a failure to die in 999 knives.

Ling Chi is also known as Ling Chi, that is, the folk say "a thousand knives". Lingchi originally referred to the slow decrease in the slope of the mountain, and Lingchi originally meant "a gentle hill".

Used as a name for the death penalty, it refers to the execution of a person's flesh with a knife, so that the victim will die slowly and painfully. Ling Chi punishment first appeared in the Five Dynasties period, and the official name of the sentence was in Liao, and since then, the Jin, Yuan, Ming, and Qing dynasties have all stipulated that it is a statutory punishment, which is the most cruel kind of death penalty.

Referring to a major eunuch in the Ming Dynasty, more than 3,000 knives of meat were cut and not dead, not only paid the principal, but also exchanged interest.
