But now, if the new lord system is implemented, the people of Changshou County will have no relationship with him half of the copper plate. At the same time, because he was crowned in this dynasty, so he can retain the title, if the last qiē title remains unchanged, when he dies, when his son inherits the title, he will have to be demoted by one level, not the Duke of Chu, but has to be renamed the county marquis, Yang Su's 2,500 households of real food, can only get 62,500 copper coins every year, only 62 and a half. This amount of money is really negligible for him. The most important thing is that the Yongye field of the original Guogong has 40 hectares, that is, 4,000 mu, and these Yongye fields will not be taken back after they are given, and 4,000 mu of land, even if one mu produces one stone, the annual output of 4,000 mu is 4,000 stones. Even if you rent it out, you can harvest a large amount of land and rent grain every year. But now, these Yongye fields have to be recovered, and two buckets of grain per mu are directly given every year, and 4,000 mu can only get 800 stone of millet a year, and there is no land. When the son is demoted, the food given will naturally be less, and it will not be the same as before, no matter whether the title is reduced or not, anyway, Yongyetian will never change if he gets it.

Of course, for Yang Su, the loss of the income of the food and the income of the title Yongye Tian are still secondary, and there are two biggest impacts. One is the original hereditary title of Duke of Chu, which will be reduced by one level for each generation inherited in the future, and if the descendants do not make meritorious contributions, this title will be gone after five generations. The other is that it turns out that Yang Su has made great contributions repeatedly, so according to the tradition since Wei, he often gives some of his father's credit to his brothers and sons, and gives them functional knighthoods. For example, because of Yang Su's repeated meritorious achievements, he not only became the Duke of Chu himself, but now he has three sons who are all dukes of the county. The eldest son, Yang Xuangan, was also rewarded with these titles and honors in the Shangzhu Kingdom. It was not their meritorious service, but because of Yang Su's merits, he was crowned his son. And now according to the emperor's new system. Yang Sujia could only retain his dukedom of Chu, and the county dukedoms of his three sons had to be revoked directly without reservation. Even according to the system, the brothers and nephews of Yang Su's family can only retain one title, so the county dukedoms of his five brothers must also be cancelled. Only his uncles and cousins, who were not his own brothers and nephews, were not affected by him.

This new jue system had a great impact on Yang Su, his family. There were eight dukes and marquis titles to be revoked, not to mention the food and Yongye fields that were lost as a result.

Of course, Yang Su is not bad, after all, his title was conferred in this dynasty, and wealthy families such as Li Mu, who turned out to be a prince of the whole family, a family of dozens of knights, this time even if a big family is separated, at most it can only retain a few titles. And almost all of them have to be downgraded.

Although Yang Su and several other prime ministers suffered great losses and were not happy, most of the remaining prime ministers headed by Liu Wenjing expressed their approval of the new system.

Yi Feng saw that Yang Su and the others were dissatisfied, but he did not say anything against it. smiled at the moment, "This is the sorting out of the original title, and I will tomorrow for the meritorious ministers of the Northern Expedition and the suppression of the rebellion." On the function of the reward, knighthood bestows the city. At that time, everyone will be equal and alienated. Humble and not leaky, only about merit, regardless of the family. ”

Liu Wenjing couldn't help but be overjoyed when she heard it. Just after the large-scale clean-up and rectification of those old lords, the emperor will definitely follow his descendants to add officials to the knighthood, as the so-called once a son of heaven and a courtier. Although after the new knighthood, it has a great impact on all knighthoods, and the benefits are reduced a lot. But for these upstarts of the Tianzi lineage, what they care about most now is not money and gains, but the promotion of their political status.

If you can seal a prince or a county marquis, who cares about receiving a few hundred yuan less money every year.

Early the next morning, on a sunny day, all the civil and military officials got up early in the morning, dressed up, and rode to the palace.

The emperor is going to reward meritorious deeds today, and the news of the canonization of lords has already spread. Many people did not know about the system of this award, and thought it was the same as before. Many people were walking on the road, while thinking in their hearts, the new emperor ascended the throne, according to the practice for many years, those who have made meritorious contributions should be rewarded, and they themselves will be promoted to knighthoods, and their brothers and nephews will also have the opportunity to be knighted and honored. And even those noble courtiers who have not made meritorious deeds can generally be stained, promoted to an official or sealed a food estate, and even a knighthood for their children and grandchildren. In short, this should be a day when the rain and dew are evenly wet, and everyone is happy.

Yang Su sat in the carriage, but he didn't have the slightest joy, he barely slept last night.

The prime minister didn't say it, he was criticized by the emperor a few days ago, and the opportunity to add officials to the knighthood was gone, and the Yang family had to lose eight dukes, if the uncles, cousins and nephews were to be removed from the titles, the Yang family would lose more than a dozen titles at once, tens of thousands of acres of titles Yongye Tian. Hey, Yang Su sighed all the way, the more he thought about it, the more he felt that something was wrong, where did this emperor get the courage to dare to come so ruthlessly? He wasn't afraid that everyone would rise up and overthrow the throne of his Yang family, or that the emperor felt that with his own Huaihuang lineage and those supporters in Kanto and Jiangnan, he could completely ignore the feelings of the Guanlong people?

Not far away, Liu Wenjing and Li Mi met. Liu Wenjing smiled and said, "Do you know what title you will change this time?"

Li Mi smiled bitterly, "I inherited my father's title of Duke of Pushan County, and this time I can be named the Marquis of Pushan County, which is the emperor's grace, and I dare not ask for anything else." ”

"You have the merit of following His Majesty Xià from the dragon, and you are also the cousin of the queen, this time you will be rewarded for your merits, I think you have a great chance to be crowned the prince of the country."

"I don't think so, but you, Duke Liu, are now in the position of prime minister, no matter what, you can at least be crowned a national duke."

"The prime minister's title of the prince of the country is just a fictitious lifelong knight."

"You have something else to do with dragons, of course it's different."

The two were talking together, and before they knew it, they had come to the noon gate, and the palace gate outside the noon gate was already full of people, waiting for the palace gate to open. Officials are in groups, all talking about today's knighthood.

The sky was light, the palace gate was opened, and hundreds of officials entered the palace and came to the court.

Hundreds of officials enter the palace, stand face to face with civil and military forces, wait for the emperor to ascend to the palace, the whip sounds, the emperor sits down, and the hundred officials turn their heads to face the emperor.

"Hooray, hooray, hooray!" Hundreds of officials kneel and worship, and the mountains shout long live.

"Zhongqing is flat."

Yi Feng stretched out his hand to help him, and then said loudly, "I will reward you with merit and make a lord, but I am afraid that there are shortcomings, after the reading is completed, you can say to yourself, Wei Zheng!" ”

"The minister is here." Wei Zheng stepped forward in response.

"You come to roll call and announce the reward."

"Yes."

Wei Zheng came to the foot of the imperial stairs and sang loudly, "Emperor Dasui decreed, Gao Gong, hereditary Duke of Qi, gave Shifeng a total of 3,000 households together with the past, and the title of Yongye Land was 5,000 acres. Yang Su, the hereditary Duke of Chu, gave a total of 3,000 households in front of the real food estate, and the title of Yongye Field was 4,000 acres. Gao Di, hereditary Zhao Guogong, gave 3,000 households, 4,000 acres of Yongye field, 10,000 yuan of money, and 10,000 horses. Wei Zheng, the hereditary Marquis of Julu County, and 1,500 households were sealed, and 10,000 horses of silk were given."

Wei Zheng didn't expect that on the list of rewarded heroes, he could actually rank fourth, after the two prime ministers Gao Gong and Yang Su, and under the new emperor's patriarch Gao Bo, the fourth is himself. Although he is a county marquis, he is still overjoyed, this is no longer the marquis in the original ninth-class title, nor is it no longer the marquis in the original indiscriminate situation, and now under the fifth-class marquis system, it is already a very high reward to be able to obtain a hereditary county marquis.

"Liu Wenjing has entered the Marquis of Taiyuan County! 1,500 households were sealed, and 10,000 horses of silk were given. ”

"Li Jingjin is the Marquis of Wuwei County!"

"Qin Shubao entered the Marquis of Jibei, Lai Cheng entered the Marquis of Gaomi, Dou Jiande entered the Marquis of Hejian, Shan Xiongxin entered the Marquis of Dongping, and Xu Deyan entered the Marquis of Danyang"

In the court, the more the officials listened, the more dazed they became. After being rewarded for most of the day, the highest hereditary prince in the hereditary title was only three, and then almost all of them were county marquis and county uncles, and those who were awarded the county marquis and county uncles were basically descendants of the son of heaven.

The more people listened, the more heartfelt they became, especially those old nobles, who were originally all princes of the country, counties, or county marquises, but in the end, almost all of them were demoted, dukes to marquises, and marquis to earls. The most ugly thing for them is that most of their titles have added the word "founding", which means that their titles have become false, and many people not only add the word "founding" before their titles, but also add the word "life" after their titles. Their titles have not only become fictitious, with no food and no eternal fields, but also become lifelong titles, and their descendants will not be allowed to inherit them.

Wei Zheng is still continuing to roll call.

"Shi Wansui entered the title of founding earl of Taiping County, and He Ruobi entered the hereditary founding prince of the Song Kingdom"

He Ruobi was originally crowned the Duke of Song because of Ping Chen's merits, but now after ten years, he has become a hereditary prince who has been falsely sealed, and his face is long at the moment, but when he turned his head and saw Shi Wansui's face, he was already red, and he deliberately said to him at the moment, "Oh, Wei Zheng is not wrong, why is General Shi only a county uncle, and he is still a lifelong knight." Ouch, it's really strange that I'm not as good as me, the founder of the country, I must have made a mistake. ”

Shi Wansui's face was swollen, and a pair of big hands had already been clenched into fists in the big sleeves of the official robe.

The roll call continues, but many people such as Shi Wansui and He Ruobi have long been disappointed, and their hearts are burning with anger. Especially Shi Wansui, he has always regarded himself as even high, and he prides himself on being a famous general of this dynasty. But now Shi Wansui has only sealed a false seal of the founding county uncle, not to mention the false seal, and he is also a lifelong title. Look at the names sung earlier, to complete the Gaomi County Marquis, or the hereditary real seal. His mother's son is less than twenty years old, and she has already been awarded such a high title. I think back then, when he led the army to quell the rebellion in Jiangnan, Lai's father Laihu'er was just a small soldier in the counterinsurgency army, not even a gang leader. But now, the sons of Laihu'er are all hereditary county marquis, but he is still just a false lifelong founding county uncle, is there any place to be reasonable?

The emperor was slapping him in the face and insulting him in front of the Manchu civil and military. (To be continued......)
