Chapter 491: Empire New Edition
Lin Ruxue said: "In the empire, what kind of citizen is it?" Doesn't seem to be of much use? ”
Li Yi said: "You see it now, it's useless, but when our empire grows bigger and the available resources increase, the status will represent a resource distribution model." You, me, and Yuyu are all the leaders of the distribution, and the higher the level of the empire members, the better they can be treated in the empire. ”
Lin Ruxue thought for a while and said, "Xiaoting is a second-class citizen, Shanshan and Lingling are a tenth-class citizen, so our seven aunts are also tenth-class citizens?" ”
Li Yi shook his head and said: "In principle, citizens should be direct descendants of the imperial family, Shanshan and Lingling are specially approved by me, which is a special circumstance. If you think that the seven aunts should be specially approved as citizens, then we can make another exception. ”
Lin Ruxue said: "Do you think it should be approved?" ”
Li Yi said: "There is no need. Shanshan and Lingling are our own sisters, who grew up with us, and their mothers are my mother's best friends, so they make an exception. Special cases are indispensable things, because few talents are honored.
Our seven aunts are not as close as Shanshan and Lingling in terms of blood, and emotionally speaking, they have just met us, no matter what, we should not put them in the same position as Shanshan and Lingling, otherwise Shanshan and Lingling will be unhappy. ”
"In this way, then according to Xiao Yun's level, give them the status of tenth-class servants?"
Li Yi said: "Xiao Yun is my godmother, and she is also the mother of Shanshan and Lingling, and she was kind to me when I was young, so I gave it to the tenth-class servants. Others, such as Meng Meng and Xia Yao, are all twenty ranks, and Qiu Yao and they are even more thirty ranks. If you want to promote them to the tenth-class servants for the sake of blood relatives, I have no opinion. ”
Lin Ruxue said: "Then it's tenth." In any case, they are our elders and close relatives, so they should be taken care of. ”
"Okay." Li Yi nodded.
Lin Ruxue said: "My aunt has become a servant, but my mother is a direct member of the imperial family, how to arrange it?" Let me tell you, my own mother is no one else, this can't be an ordinary citizen, or give her a royal status, and make her the queen mother, how about it? ”
"The Empress Dowager?" Li Yi frowned, "The Empress Dowager was originally the emperor's grandmother, and it stands to reason that she should be given to Xiaohe." However, I think that we should not be sealed again, let alone add the royal family, the empire is in its infancy, all affairs should be simple, one emperor and two queens are the cornerstone of our empire, and it is also the only three royal families, which cannot be changed. ”
Lin Ruxue said: "Xiao Yi, you are not kind." Your mother can be the queen mother, but my mother can't even get it from the royal family? She is my own mother, and she is also your own grandmother! ”
"Don't worry, aren't we discussing? In fact, the royal family is not just a title, but also a deeper responsibility. I understand that you respect your grandmother, and I think it is better to give her a noble title. The mother of the ancient queen and the mother of the queen mother were all titled 'king' or 'lady', and grandmothers can also. ”
Lin Ruxue said: "Aristocrats? Xiao Yi, you have a mother, I have a mother, that's my own mother. If you don't make her a royal family, then you have to be the most prominent of the nobility, without her there would be no me and my sister, we love her. ”
"She is the most prominent of the nobility, so what about our grandmother and your grandmother?" Li Yi asked.
Lin Ruxue thought for a while and said, "This is really troublesome!" But a generation apart, the relationship is really estranged, you love your mother, but you don't take your grandmother seriously, I also have a deep affection for my mother, and my grandmother is not so deep.
By the way, don't you like to rank by kinship? Then my mother should be the most prominent nobleman, and secondarily the grub, for she is equally close to all three of us. It's my grandmother again, because she's a little bit less related to you, how about it? ”
Li Yi said: "Grandma can be the most prominent nobleman, after all, you and Yuyu only have one mother, and she is also the ancestor of our family." But there is no need for this for the grandmother and grandmother.
There are three generations behind, and the relationship in our country is far away, and so many of my own daughters can only be ordinary citizens. If you want to respect them, it is enough to give them a special aristocratic status, there is no need to put them all in a position below one person, above ten thousand. ”
"Do you want to give your grandmother and her grandfather a special level of nobility?"
"That's right, my own sister Xiaoting is just a second-class citizen."
"Well, I agree in principle, when my sister wakes up, you ask her opinion." Forest like snow road.
"Then the domestic affairs will be decided first, and we will discuss the family affairs next."
"At home?" Lin Ruxue blinked.
Li Yi smiled: "Xuexue, you can't tell the difference between country and home, right?" Our future world will be divided into three levels, the first of which is the Religion of God, and people who share the same faith can be included as our followers. The second is the state, which is composed of citizens and is our central strength. The last layer is our home, our private world.
The emperors of ancient times also made a clear distinction between the country and the family. The last dynasty is to deal with the affairs of the country, and the return to the palace is to deal with the affairs of the palace. The emperor, the queen, and his many concubines formed a family. Although this family is relatively large compared to the common people, it is also different from the country. ”
Lin Ruxue said: "I understand." Those in the elite group, you classify as people in the country, but not family. In your eyes, there are actually only a few family members, such as me, Xiaoting, Xiaoyun, and Mengmeng, right? ”
"Yes, we gave my grandmother their noble status, but we only gave them domestic status, and the position in the family has not been given. Of course, grandmothers and grandmothers are the status of the family, but our family is more special, so it is better to clarify it again. ”
Lin Ruxue said: "What you say is special, do you mean marrying us all?" I am the queen, Xiaoting is a talented person, and Xiaoyun, Shanshan, and Lingling also have their own identities. Although my mother is stupid now, if she recovers her senses, she will definitely want a name - well, needless to say anything else, this identity is still under one person, above ten thousand people, the same as in China, you look at it! ”
Li Yi said with a smile: "The affairs of the court are mainly based on me, but since ancient times, it has been the queen who has managed the concubine palace, and you can decide with Yuyu what position they want." ”
Lin Ruxue said: "I'm not unfamiliar with it, you can talk about it." ”
Li Yi said: "Our country is called the Tang Dynasty, if we follow the ancient Tang Dynasty system, then under the queen are the four concubines, that is, the noble concubine, the lady concubine, the virtuous concubine, and the virtuous concubine." If you want your grandmother to be under you alone, just make her a concubine. ”
Lin Ruxue's eyes widened and said, "I am the queen, and my mother is the concubine?" You can figure it out! ”
Li Yi said: "Since the ancient aunts and nephews have been separated, there are countless concubines, but your relationship is a little closer." My wife is you, there is no doubt about it, if you want to give them a different title, I am afraid that they may not like it. ”
Lin Ruxue said: "Let's wait for this matter first, when my mother recovers, if I also want to marry you, then arrange it, anyway, she is my mother, how can there be no shortage of their places in the family." ”
"And what about Grandma and Grandma?" Li Yi asked.
Lin Ruxue stared at Li Yi for a while before saying, "Do you want to marry them?" ”
Li Yi said: "I don't care, but if you think we have to respect our elders, then we should indeed give them a position in the palace." Otherwise, after they have given birth to many children, they will not even have a name, and they will definitely be unhappy in their hearts. ”
Lin Ruyu said: "If it is arranged, it can't be low, you can give an opinion." ”
Li Yi said: "Actually, you don't have to be too high. The four concubines and nine concubines, if there is no suitable candidate, they can be vacant first, and the two of them can be named Jieyu. ”
"Huh? Our bow is only a Jieyu? Isn't that good? ”
"Jieyu is the third grade in the palace, there is nothing bad. If there is a suitable person above them in the future, they will not be able to find fault with them. ”
Lin Ruxue found that the next generation is really not as good as her mother. If Li Yi wants to give her mother Jieyu, she will definitely die, but if it is Gang Gong and her grandmother, it is really acceptable.
"My sister is the queen mother, I am the queen, my mother is the concubine, I am the concubine and my grandmother are Jieyu, and my niece is the talent - Xiaoyi, how do I feel that the family is getting more and more chaotic?"
"Haha, that's our aunt hasn't joined in yet. If you like them, you can also discuss with Yuyu and give them some positions. For example, the eighty-one royal wife's last-class color girl, currently only Meng Meng and Xia Yao, add seven of them to just full number. Actually, these aunts of mine are very good, and I personally think they are worth marrying. ”
"What about the elite ones? Is it worth marrying? Lin Ruxue asked.
"Forget about those, it's hard to arrange too many people, and there's no type I particularly like."
Lin Ruxue said: "Then who will make special contributions in the future, and then let you marry into the family as a reward!" ”
Li Yi said: "Don't, don't do this. Whoever has contributed to the country can naturally improve the level of citizenship and treatment in all aspects, but it doesn't matter if I marry her or not. If anyone contributes to the country, the emperor will marry, then won't the emperor be tired to death? ”
"Haha, I see. A country is a country, a home is a home, the home in your eyes is a place for you to relax and relax, who you marry only for your own liking, it has nothing to do with their ability, right? Like Xia Yao, she actually doesn't have much ability, but if you like her, you will marry. ”
Li Yi nodded and said, "Xuexue, it's good if you understand this, and if you understand this, it means that you can distinguish between going abroad and going home." ”
Lin Ruxue said: "Okay, then let's do this first, tomorrow my sister comes out, you can discuss it with her again, and then open the imperial meeting." I won't participate, anyway, as long as you don't treat my mother badly, it's our common body, and my grandmother is also your great-grandfather, so I don't care. ”
"Okay, my dear." Li Yi kissed her.
The next day, Lin Ruyu and Lin Ruxue changed shifts as scheduled. Seeing that Li Yi's taming work has been completed, Gen Geng, grandmother, and aunt are all very obedient, and she is also very satisfied.
At noon, the Imperial Council was convened in the auditorium of the villa.
The participants were all members of the Empire, and the elite group was all on the list, but most of the members of the Cult were not eligible because they were not Imperial servants.
At the meeting, everyone found that the imperial nobles who had been vacant had finally changed, and the increase was three!
Xiao Feifei is a special nobleman and is titled King Ci!
Lin Linghe is a second-class nobleman and is titled Cizun Marquis!
Xiao Yue is a second-class nobleman and is titled Cijing Marquis!
The titles of the three were decided by Li Yi and Lin Ruyu through discussion. Li Yi originally planned to give a title of "Jun" or "Madame" or something like that, but Lin Ruyu felt that since it was simpler, then don't mess up, just use a serious title.
Li Yi's Tang Empire did not adopt the titles of county prince and county prince in the ancient Tang system, but simply divided it into five classes: duke, marquis, uncle, son, and male.
Above the fifth rank, there is also a special "king", and below the fifth rank, there is also a special "honorary noble", which is actually a total of seven ranks.
Xiao Feifei, as a close relative of the queen mother and the queen, was rightly named a special prince, Lin Linghe and Xiao Yue were treated a little worse, but the marquis was also the first time in the entire empire.
"Congratulations!"
"Thank you! Thank you! ”
Lin Linghe and Xiao Yue were both a little nervous. As a new member of this family, they were promoted to such a high position as soon as they came, and they were sincerely afraid.
After all, their ascension to the throne is not based on their personal ability, but because they gave birth to the right child sixty years ago.
"My master loves me so much, I must serve her well." Lin Linghe thought secretly.
"After 60 years of sleep, I have been left behind too much by this era. In the future, I must work hard to let everyone know that I am worthy of the title of master's reward! Xiao Yue said secretly.
Of course, today's most notable nobleman, "King Ci", did not react to the fact that he was crowned king. She still sat obediently in Li Yi's arms, like a pet.
"Grandma, look at it carefully, remember, today is your glorious day." Li Yi said.
"Oh." Xiao Feifei nodded quickly, but she didn't know what to look at or remember.
In addition to the three new nobles, eight new Imperial servants were also announced at the conference, which also caused a heated discussion among the big guys - because seven of the eight were tenth-class servants!
"Oh my God, tenth-class servants! In the past, there seemed to be only Tang Yunu among servants of this level! ”
"That's right, she is Your Majesty's godmother and wife, she has taken care of Your Majesty since she was a child, and her two daughters were also married by Your Majesty, so they were named tenth-class servants. I really don't know where these seven people come from, they can actually be on an equal footing with Tang Yunu! ”
"Didn't you tell me what it was about? People are His Majesty and his aunt, do you say kiss or not? ”
"Your Majesty's aunt?"
"That's right, Your Majesty said it himself, I was also in the spring pool that day!"
"Oh my God, Your Majesty's aunt is really young and beautiful!"
The eighth servant other than the seven aunts is Xiao Yue's niece and Lin Yi's mother Xiao Qiuyan. For the sake of her grandmother and cousin, Li Yi deliberately promoted her to a servant, but she was only thirty ranks, the same as Luo Qiuyao and others.
As for the mothers of Lin Xi, Lin Lian, Lin Su and others, they are still in the investigation stage and have not been officially included in the empire.
In April of the 17th year of the Tang calendar, all members of Li Yi's family officially united around the Tang royal family with Li Yi, Lin Ruyu, and Lin Ruxue as their hearts, and a new chapter in history was opened. (To be continued.) )
