明代民众诣阙上诉蔚为风潮，诉访事宜广涉政治、经济、社会等。其中，民众控告官员罪行、乞留清官胥吏、揭露地方败政等诣阙上诉行为多能得到明廷允准，并根据上诉事宜，因事制宜、规范程序，惩治贪官、以示警戒，受理陈诉、除弊兴利，转送推诿、不予受理。诣阙上诉体现了明人追求申诉权、公正权的自觉意识与执着精神，蕴含着一定的权利意识和民主观念。虽然明代诣阙上诉存在诸多局限，但仍是明廷了解舆情、洞察民意、肃清吏治、监控社会的重要途径。

Demotic appeal tends to be a general and common choice for the public in Ming Dynas?ty, which involves wide range of fields of politics, economics, society and education, etc. Some ap?peal behaviors often show effectiveness with the permission of court, such as accusing officials, beg?ging for holdover and exposing corruption. Meanwhile, the results change with varied treatment meth?ods of standardizing procedure by adjusting measures to different events, warning officialdom by pun?ishing corrupted officials, eliminating and profiting by accepting cases or refusing to accept by buck passing. Demotic appeal contains certain right consciousness and democratic concept for embodying a value of self consciousness and persistent spirit of pursuing right of appeal and justice for the peo?ple of Ming Dynasty. Limitations as the behavior has, demotic appeal is an appropriate approach for government to have insight into public opinion, rectify the official sect and control society as well.
