“打屁股”可不是开玩笑唐朝国都长安城是当时世界上的大城市,人口过百万,交通管制自然是当时朝廷要抓的一项很重要的事务。按照《唐律》规定,在没有任何公私缘故的情况下,在街道和小巷的人群中快速骑马或者驾马车的,事主最初要被处以用竹板或者荆条打50次脊背的处罚。后来,唐太宗听说脊背是人的经脉聚集处,大发慈悲,改为打屁股。 “Spanking ” is not a joke The capital city of Changan in Chang’an was a big city in the world at that time, with a population of over a million. Traffic control is naturally a very important matter to be grasped by the court at that time. According to the “Tang Law”, in the absence of any public-private reason, riding a horse or riding a car fast in the streets and alleys, the victim was initially punished with 50 strokes of bamboo or vitex. Later, Emperor Taizong heard that the spine was the meridian gathering place of people, mercifully changed to spanking.
