今湖南省永州市蓝山县的赵氏先祖赵朝胜,曾在明嘉靖年间带领瑶民作乱,因土地纠纷对抗官军,明朝官府镇压不成后实行招抚,赵朝胜本人虽被杀,其子孙却获地免役。通过对赵朝胜作乱一事始末的考辨,尽可能真实地还原和展现事件的根本起因、发展过程和解决方式,分析其间所涉及的多方人物的立场和行为,可以对明代中后期政府对瑶区的管控状况作进一步的反思。史实证明,瑶民的经济利益需求长久以来得不到满足,政府对瑶民诉求的忽略和盲目采取的军事行动加剧了二者间的矛盾,这使得地方动乱事件时有发生。赵朝胜乱起之后,明朝政府依靠作为中间阶层的地方精英的协调,瑶区在一定程度上得到了控制,但随着晚明社会的到来、全国范围内更大规模动乱的爆发,地方社会脱离上层控制的趋势逐渐加强,中间阶层便难以发挥有效作用,中央政府对包括瑶区在内的地区社会的失控则成为一种必然的趋势。 Zhao Zhaosheng, an ancestor of the Zhao ancestors in Lanshan County, Yongzhou City, Hunan Province, led Yao people into chaos during the Ming Jiajing period. After the land dispute confronted the officials and the Ming government was suppressed, the Zhao Zhao-sheng himself was killed and his children and grandchildren were exempted . Through the examination of Zhao Chaosheng’s work from beginning to end, it is possible to restore and reveal the root cause, development process and solution of the incident truthfully and truthfully as possible as possible and to analyze the positions and behaviors of the multi-parties involved in the intervening period. Management situation for further reflection. Historical facts prove that the economic interests of Yao people have not been satisfied for a long time. The negligence of the government’s demands on Yao people and the blind military actions have aggravated the contradictions between the two. This has caused occasional local unrest. After the chaos of Zhao Chaosheng, the Ming government relied on the coordination of the local elites as the middle class, and the Yao areas were under some control. However, with the arrival of the society in late Ming, the outbreak of a more massive turmoil across the country led to the separation of local communities The trend of upper-level control gradually strengthened, the middle-class can hardly play an effective role and the central government has become an inevitable trend of losing control of the regional society including Yao district.
