First of all, I would like to thank the readers for their questions about the rabbit. Some readers pointed out that the protagonist Lu Rui is the founding county marquis of the Han Dynasty, but when it comes to the Great Wei, he is the Marquis of Wenxin, which is equivalent to a downgrade, and he greatly explains this problem to the readers.

The first point is the issue of knighthoods in Chinese history. The prince is the title of the general feudal dynasty. Before the Tang Dynasty, these titles were generally real titles, that is, the people who were knighted had their own fiefs and people. After arriving in the Tang Dynasty, it was a false seal, only for food, not for fiefs and people.

Before the Tang Dynasty, as long as the person who was crowned a duke, he was basically the actual controller of the dynasty, and he was basically the founding emperor or the founder of the usurpation (such as Cao Cao, Duke of Wei, Ma Zhao of the Jin Company, including the founders of various dynasties during the Northern and Southern Dynasties) The protagonist was the Marquis of Xiaoyao, who did not want to usurp the throne and only wanted to assist Cao Wei, so he could not be titled a duke or above.

The second point is that the title of Marquis of Qi and Kaiguo County is not necessarily higher than that of Marquis Wenxin. Before the Tang Dynasty, the grade of the Hou Ye was relatively chaotic, mainly depending on the fief and food of the Hou Ye, which determined the dignity of the Hou Ye's identity.

In this book, the protagonist Lu Rui is the Marquis of Fan County of Qi in Dahan, and his fief is only Fan County, with 1,000 households.

But at the time of the Wei State, Lü Rui was the Marquis of Wenxin, the fief was twenty counties, 10,000 households, and Lü Rui could also eat 50 households in Luoyang (50 households in the capital of the Great Wei State), a total of 10,000 and 50 households.

The standard of Lu Ruiwen Xinhou is to imitate Lü Buwei's food yi (12 counties of Lantian and 20 households in Luoyang, Henan)

Generally, in the feudal dynasty, only the emperor could enjoy the food of the national capital, but in order to commend the meritorious heroes, the meritorious people could be rewarded with the national capital, indicating that they enjoyed the food with the emperor.

Therefore, compared with the title of the Marquis of Wen Xin of the protagonist Lu Rui Wei and the Marquis of Qi of the Eastern Han Dynasty, it is a promotion rather than a decline. Thank you for your questions, and I hope that readers will continue to ask questions in the future and discuss them with Dada.
