In fact, it can be seen from "the courtesy cannot be extended to the common people, and the punishment cannot be extended to the officials" that Han Fei later proposed, "the ministers should not be spared in punishment, and the good deeds should not be spared in rewards", which is of epoch-making significance.
In fact, I think from the Western Zhou Dynasty to the Qin Dynasty (at least to the Qin Dynasty), monogamy was practiced. However, in the Western Zhou Dynasty, there were both concubines and concubines, but by the Qin Dynasty, the concubines gradually declined, and only concubines were left. Polygamy seems to have become particularly popular during the Song Dynasty.
