"The lower officials are high, meet His Royal Highness the Prince, and meet all the officials."

As Gao Feng expected, when he went to the prince's mansion, he found that the prince, Zhang Shao, Luo Xian, Huo Yi, Jian, Sun Gang, Guan Suo and other local giants in the court, as well as Huo Zai, Luo Xi and others who returned from the front line, had gathered together. And judging by their tired expressions, it seems that they have been discussing and arguing for a long time.

"I'm the one who came to hear the results." Seeing this scene, Gao Feng unconsciously laughed at himself again.

Yongliang is in hand, and the situation of Yizhou being the only big man or Yizhou supporting the big man has been completely changed. The drastic changes in the general trend will inevitably bring about the redistribution of interests and the reshuffling of the court.

Although Guan Yi tried his best to unite a group of people through the dilution of Fuxing's shares. But the Fuxing Society now has only a few dozen families. On the whole, the four major factions in the political ecology of Shu Han still exist.

Among these four factions, the Yuancong or Fuxing faction undoubtedly once again has the capital to obtain more official positions and real power. And the Dongzhou faction has tended to disintegrate. As for the remaining two factions......

For the Yizhou scholars, their feelings are complicated: after taking Yongliang, this parasitic colonial regime finally does not have to suck blood only on the thigh of Yizhou. However, while the exploitation will be significantly reduced, the importance of Yizhou to the Han will inevitably be weakened.

In the words of Qian Zhou, who is now living at home, it is: In the past few decades, as the old people of the Jingzhou faction and the Dongzhou faction have withered away one by one, the voice of Yizhou people in the court has become louder and louder. Although many official positions are fictitious titles in name only, if this development continues, with the Jingzhou faction and the Dongzhou faction, they will not succeed. Sooner or later, the people of Yizhou will get the real power in the Han court. At that time, Shu Han, no matter how unhappy the ruler is, will become another Eastern Wu. But now it's different, Dahan took Yongliang. The people of Yizhou have been working hard for so many years, and they are about to pick peaches, and the result! The whole regime suddenly doesn't have to rely on the people of Yizhou.

And what about the Jingzhou faction? Hehe, due to the lack of talents, Guan Da Sima has long been untreatable to see them. But in the past, in order to maintain the Shu Han regime and not completely become a family, Da Sima had to pinch his nose to give Jingzhou enough power. But what about now? If the Jingzhou faction can no longer provide sufficient, high-quality talents. There is no doubt that their position will continue to weaken.

But without the continuous support of the land of Jingxiang, where could the Jingzhou faction suddenly come up with so many talents? And according to Da Sima's national policy, even if he wins Yongliang. In the short term, the main direction of attack of Dahan is not Jingzhou.

Not only are they unhappy, but the royal family is not very happy either.

Of course, the reason is simpler: you Guan Yi is already a great Sima Kaifu Lu Shangshu, and you are already a county marquis. Now you have made a feats that far surpass Prime Minister Zhuge Cheng. How do I get a reward? Is it a feudal business? Once this step is taken, the shadows of Cao Cao and Sima Zhao will inevitably cover the sky of the Han Dynasty.

Yes, as a royal family surnamed Liu, we most hope that the Han regime can flourish. But there is a premise for this: this regime must be surnamed Liu! But if this development continues, I am afraid that it will not be long before this regime will be closed!

Therefore, don't look at Guan Yi and Jiang Wei taking Yongliang and completely solving the existential crisis for Shu Han. But for the three major factions whose interests are about to be damaged, they are really not very happy. As for the royal family, I am afraid that there is more fear than excitement.

So for Guan Yi, the joy of the success of the Northern Expedition lasted for a while. If he does not do his best in the next distribution of benefits and personnel adjustments. The success of the Northern Expedition may have been the starting point for his death and annihilation - the existing major factions of the Shu Han regime may unite like never before and form an anti-guan alliance.

Therefore, soon after Guan Yi entered Chang'an, he sent Huo Zai and Luo Xi back to Chengdu. After that, Huo Yi, Luo Xian, Sun Gang and others also entered Chengdu. Coupled with the backbone of the revival department in the imperial court, everyone discussed together behind closed doors in the prince's mansion for a long time.

First of all, Huo Zai and Luo Xi made it clear on behalf of Guan Yi: I have no idea of sealing the prince, and I have no intention of becoming prime minister. Da Sima's position is very comfortable for me now. Therefore, all the officials in the court also have to shut up Lao Tzu, don't say that Da Sima has made great contributions, and he should be crowned a duke to reward such nonsense. I won't accept it.

It can be said that while Guan Yi's statement made the royal family breathe a sigh of relief, there was also a bigger problem: how to reward Guan Yi?

It's not okay to be rewarded for your merits! Guan Yi is not alone behind him. In this Northern Expedition, Shu Han invested 130,000 troops before and after, and mobilized more than 100,000 people. Guan Yi can't get a reward, so what should the people below do? Aren't they all rewarded? Who is willing to do things for the court after that?

So when the crown prince Liu Chen asked this question, Huo Zai and Luo Xi said: Da Sima means that he values reality and ignores fame. And take this opportunity to introduce a new policy.

Guan Yi's head was still very clear at this time. As for Jiang Wei, after achieving his long-cherished wish for many years, he only feels that his life has been fulfilled and he doesn't ask for too much. And what about Zhang Yi, the other commander of the Northern Expedition this time, don't forget, he is the number one boss in the military circles of Yizhou people. Starting with Yongliang, Yizhou's status within Shu Han will decline significantly. So at this time, what Zhang Yi sought was to stabilize the interests of the entire Yizhou. Personally, he doesn't want too much.

Therefore, after the three commanders have unified their opinions, the next thing will be much easier.

Specifically, the rewards of the main generals of this Northern Expedition are as follows:

Guan Yi, Da Sima, Kaifu, all supervised the Chinese and foreign military, and recorded Shangshu affairs. The county marquis of Xie Liang did not move, but the number of actual sealed households directly increased from 800 to 2,000. In addition, his eldest son, Guan Fu, was named the fifth Marquis of Hanshou Pavilion, and the number of households was 300.

Jiang Wei, the general, the prince and the prince, and the secretary of the plain book. The title of Marquis of Pingxiang remained unchanged, and the number of his households was increased to 2,000. His son Jiang Su was named the Marquis of Dangyang Pavilion (Jiang Wei's previous title), and he was actually sealed with 300 households.

The rewards for these two people have been decided, and basically the rewards for all the soldiers of this Northern Expedition have also been decided.

Shu Han used to be financially tight because of its small territory. Therefore, the so-called county marquis, township marquis, and pavilion marquis are all fictitious, and there is no actual land and households. And this time the reform of the title system is to make a little change in this.

Of course, at this time, there were only three of the fifteen states in the world. Therefore, it is impossible to completely seal the land. Fortunately, in these years, the land is generally sparsely populated, as long as you are willing to reclaim the wasteland - as long as you pay a certain amount of money to the government and buy the land.

And the number of households rewarded here does not mean how many households the state directly allocates to you from the civil register. It's about how many households the state gives you. Within this quota, you can not pay household tax, poll tax, etc. This is the most realistic reward for meritorious people.

In Guan Yi's view, the work of checking household taxes, weakening the family, and restoring the hidden population of the family to the national register must be continued. But this kind of digging up the ancestral grave of the family cannot be blindly tough. In addition to diverting the attention and capital of the family with various handicrafts and mining. It is also necessary to give the family a certain way out - not to mention the ready-made family, just the generals below Guan Yi, which one doesn't want to become a family? As their power swells, will they still listen to themselves as they do today when their estates begin to hide a large number of people?

So, I'll just set a rule: you have military merits and merits. Okay, I'll give you as many tax-free places as I want. With this tax-free quota, you can legitimately recruit ordinary people or homeless people to enter your estate to become your tenants, and the tenants within the quota are still exempt from taxes. As for you, who has no military merits and no other merits, but has so many tenants? Sorry, please pay the household tax and the poll tax.

The advantage of this is that it completely separates the meritorious class from the ordinary family. The confluence of these two groups was avoided.

In the future, if a person wants to make a fortune, the main process is: studying, becoming a leader, making meritorious contributions, obtaining quotas, and making a fortune. As for colluding with the government and bullying and embezzling the state's homesteaders as before. Hmph, first of all, the meritorious class must oppose it.

Of course, human greed never ends. After the meritorious class obtained the tax-free quota and established their own estates and homes, they inevitably pursued more tenants and more estate land. To achieve this goal, it is still too slow to rely solely on military merit. Moreover, the descendants of the meritorious class may not all be successful. Therefore, it is inevitable that it will also degenerate into today's family...... But that was many years later. And many years later, Guan Yi certainly has a new way to guide it.

As a result, under this policy, the generals of the Northern Expedition more or less got a certain amount of tax exemption. Ma Jie, Zhan Hong, Tian Xu, and Wen Yang, who had beheaded the enemy generals many times after surrendering, also obtained the title of Marquis of Ting in addition to their official positions.

The last ordinary soldiers and people. In the case of those who die in battle, the children who have children are exempt from tax, and those who have no children are allowed to be exempted from taxation for one of their brothers. If they are disabled, they are exempt from tax for life, and the state will give them a subsidy of 1,000 yuan per year. Other soldiers and civilians were given money, tax exemptions, or promotions according to the size of their specific merits.
