Family means kinship. The theory of "Jiuzu" was first seen in Yaodian: "Pro-Jiuzu." There have always been different views on what Jiuzu refers to, and there are two popular views:
(1) From grandfather's uncle to Great-great-grandson, they are called Jiuzu. Specifically, it refers to great-grandfather, great-grandfather, father, son, grandson, great-grandson and great-grandson. Judy (Ming Taizu Chengzu), the prince of Yan in history, led troops to Beijing. After seizing power, he ordered Fang Xiaoru to draft an imperial edict for him. Fang Xiaoru wouldn't listen and was killed. At that time, 847 people were killed by collective punishment, that is, nine families were destroyed. When destroying the nine clans, the dead should be beheaded and flogged.
(2) It refers to the blood relationship with different surnames, that is, four paternal families (four generations of one's own family), three matriarchal families (three generations of one's mother) and two wives (two generations of one's wife), which constitute nine clans.
In the battle of Jingnan in Ming Dynasty, Cheng Zu of Ming Dynasty created the concept of ten clans and killed all Fang Xiaoru's friends!
"Book Essentials" says: "Nine families are close." "Biography of Kong Anguo" said: "Take Mu Gaozu and Great-great-grandson as relatives." Refers to his father, grandfather, great-grandfather and his sons, grandsons, great-grandchildren and great-grandchildren. The old patriarchal clan system and funeral were based on this. There are also nine clans, including relatives with different surnames. There are four paternal clans, three matriarchal clans and two wife clans. The so-called Jiuzu in this dynasty refers to the latter. The so-called punishment of the nine families is to push the relatives involved to the execution ground and cut off their heads all the time. We crossed the Naihe Bridge and drank Mengpo soup together, and we were not lonely on the way to the grave.

The so-called nine families count from themselves: father, grandfather, great-grandfather, great-grandfather; Count yourself: sons, grandchildren, great-grandchildren and great-grandchildren. There are nine clans in all. The so-called "ten tribes", together with the students in the school, killed 873 people in a row, and more than 1000 people were sent into exile by other relatives.

In ancient China, "property seizure" and "genocide" were often used together, aiming at uprooting-completely eliminating the power and contacts of revenge. Shao Kang's idea of "10% of the land, more than one brigade" is the inexhaustible result, while Wu Zixu and Wu Fachu are the incomplete results of genocide. As a result, Qin Shihuang began to have a cool method of "family punishment", first of all, "foreign three families", and the descendants became more and more cool, from three families, five families to nine families-father, mother and wife. The most common saying is that Ming Chengzu killed Fang Xiaoru and punished his "ten clans".
Fang Xiaoru, known as the first Confucian scholar in the early Ming Dynasty, was an important official who assisted Zhu Yuanzhang's grandson Wen Jian, and was a big faction in Manchu Dynasty. After Judy laid the foundation stone for Jinling, the first person to be subdued was Fang Xiaoru. It happened that this Old Master Q was very proud. When he met the new emperor twice, he was dressed in mourning and wept bitterly. Judy humbly asked him to draw up an imperial edict (forcing him to make a statement), and he only wrote four words: "Yan thief usurped the throne." Judy asked him, "Aren't you afraid of death?" Fang Xiaoru replied: "Kill if you want, you can't write a letter." Judy: Don't you care about your nine families? Fang Xiaoru: "Don't say' Nine Families', you are not afraid to punish' Ten Families'." The necessity, the emperor was angry, in addition to the nine families in Fang Xiaoru, plus "protege" add up to ten families and kill them all.
From today's point of view, Fang Xiaoru faction has great influence in Jinling regime. If Fang Xiaoru is willing to make a statement, the civil service system can be incorporated, and Fang Xiaoru, his protege, cannot be trusted. This probably represented the popularity of Jiangnan people at that time, which led Judy to move to Yanjing (now Beijing).
