As mentioned above, Yang Congxun's biological father, Yang Xindu, with the help of Ma Laoke, took the way to the noble Zhenguo general in the capital.

So there is something to water outside today...... Don't look at me with this kind of look, this kind of extraneous is neither updated on the same day, nor is it charged, and we are not allowed to have a water on the water?

As we all know, the royal titles of the Qing Dynasty are divided into 12 grades from top to bottom: 'Prince Heshuo, King of Dorojun, Dorobele, Gushan Beizi, Zhenguo Gong (into eight points), Fuguo Gong (into eight points), Zhenguo Gong (not into eight points), Fuguo Gong (not into eight points), Zhenguo General, Auxiliary Guo General, Fengguo General, Feng'en General'.

In fact, these titles are only a name to show the identity of the master and the court to issue a fortune, and have no actual rights.

Take the Lord of Belle under the prince as an example, he gave 2,500 taels of silver and 3,000 taels of rice (16 taels of rice and 130 catties of old scales, about 104 kilograms).

All of this income was converted into renminbi (3.3 yuan a gram of silver, 4.9 yuan a kilogram of rice), less than 1.7 million yuan......

Fortunately, Bellor's mansion was given by the imperial court, otherwise he couldn't afford to live in a courtyard house in the capital with this money, and if he wanted to buy a house in full, he had to go outside the Sixth Ring Road.

Ahem...... Straight to the point.

In addition to the hereditary ten princes of 'Li, Rui, Yu, Su, Zheng, Zhuang, Yi, Gong, Alcohol, and Qing', and the two county kings of 'Shuncheng and Keqin', the title of the eldest viscount of each generation remains unchanged (still the prince's title), the rest of the royal family will be demoted from generation to generation.

What, you and the emperor of the dynasty are brothers?

Then congratulations on becoming a prince (cousins are county kings), your eldest son is Baylor, and your second son is Beizi.

Initial website: m.

After that, the eldest grandson was Beizi, the second grandson was Zhenguo Gong, and so on, until General Feng'en was lowered.

Now someone asks, the sons-in-law have titles to inherit, so what about the prince's concubines?

What to do?

Cold!

In the past, this concubine was not a son of man, and he did not have human rights.

As soon as his father died, he immediately had to be separated from the family with his mother, and the family property, especially the fixed assets such as land and houses, was still scored.

It's really sad to say, and the mainstream view in society in the past was that the concubine was not her own family, but just a surrogate mother who worked for the master.

Therefore, the concubine mother and the servants of the family generally receive a much higher monthly silver than them every month (the main house is in charge of the back house, she does not receive the monthly silver), and the working class of the eight classics.

In addition, the jewelry, hairpins, rings, clothes, and satin that the lord gave to his wife on weekdays are also her personal property.

As soon as the old man died, the mother's work was over.

At that time, you can go to the eldest son who inherits the family business to receive a severance pay, and then leave with the concubine (assuming that the master has a lot of concubines, and there is no need for the concubine to manage the family business together).

If the number of concubines in a certain family is relatively small, or even when there is only one concubine, the concubines at this time can stay without separating the family.

(In case the eldest son dies without leaving any descendants, then the family will die.)

Just in case, the concubine has to stay.

With the level of medical care back then, this kind of dead and desperate example is really a big deal! ）

Okay, there's a lot of gossip, so let's get down to business.

At first glance, the title of General Zhenguo is really not a dignitary, ranking fourth from the bottom among the 12th Lords.

But you have to think about the background of the story, the story of Hu San and Yang Congxun happened in the early years of Jiaqing!

Isn't that weird?

The previous generation was the brother of Emperor Qianlong, why was it only one generation apart that this prince became a general of Zhenguo?

The reduction is also a little too fast, right?

Maybe you can see that the father of the general of Zhenguo in the book, he is the fifth elder brother of Emperor Yongzheng, Aixin Jueluo. Hongday, the half-brother of Lord Qianlong.

He was named 'Prince Hegong' in the Qianlong Dynasty and was a famous 'absurd' prince in history.

Do you remember Liu Yong's father-in-law in "Prime Minister Liu Luoguo"? That Prince Gong who gets drunk every day?

His prototype is this Prince Hegong, who has a poem "The Song of the Golden Bottle" handed down, the poem says: "The world is impermanent, and the cup is drunk; It is rare to have a confidant in life, and you can change the cup to talk about the past and the present'.

Needless to say, this prince must be a fairy in wine.

The most important thing this prince did in his life was to kiss the Minister of Military Aircraft who had a quarrel with him in front of the civil and military officials and the Qianlong Lord...... Hit.

In front of the emperor and civil and military officials, he rushed up and slapped his colleagues in the face, this kind of scene can be said how many times in the entire history of China, anyway, there should be a Qing season should be regarded as the only one.

The reason why this 'Prince Hegong' behaves so 'absurd' is related to the fact that his biological mother is the concubine Geng of Emperor Chunyi.

This Geng family and Qianlong's biological mother, Empress Xiao Shengxian, Niu Hulu, married Yongzheng Ye together, but Geng's family background is much lower than that of Empress Xiao Shengxian, who was born in Manchuria.

Her family is just the daughter of the prince (steward), and she is also the banner of the Han army.

After the third elder brother Hongshi was expelled from the Yongzheng Emperor because of his preference for women and indulgence, the fourth elder brother Hongli (Qianlong) and the fifth elder brother Hongday (and King Gong) became contenders for the throne together (Qianlong was only three months older than Prince Gong).

Do you think that the biological mother is not from the Manchu noble surname, and she is also the 'King of Hegong' of the Han Army Banner, and has the capital to compete for the throne with Lord Qianlong?

Therefore, from this moment on, this 'Prince of Hegong' took the initiative to perform some "ridiculous" actions of good wine, in order to show that he has no intention of competing for the throne.

And his move greatly won the favor of Lord Qianlong, and he has been protecting him ever since......

What is Gong Dou called? This is called Gong Dou!

How to form an alliance with the stronger side and get the most benefit for yourself is really a science.

As mentioned earlier, this 'Prince Hegong' slapped the Minister of Military Aircraft in front of the emperor and all the ministers in the court, so do you know how Lord Qianlong handled this matter?

Didn't dispose of it.

Lord Qianlong on the dragon chair pretended not to see it directly, and then none of the ministers below, including the beaten relatives, dared to squeak, so the matter passed in a daze.

I tell you, I don't dare to TM write like that!!

Now the question is, since this 'Prince Hegong' is so favored by Lord Qianlong, why did his descendants become the general of Zhenguo?

First of all, this Zhenguo general is not the eldest son of 'Prince Hegong', and he should be demoted to inherit the title.

The second is that his father's 'and Gong Wangye' are too capable of giving birth.

Only one concubine Fujin and two side Fujin's 'Prince Hegong' actually gave birth to eight sons and one daughter in a row, and only two sons died!

This result almost caught up with Emperor Yongzheng, who was supported by a twenty-person harem team!

With so many people going to receive wages at the same time, the court really couldn't pay it, so it could only reduce the titles of those second sons to lower the salaries.

The third is that this 'ridiculous prince' did something ridiculous in his later years.

Therefore, Lord Qianlong must punish him, and then lower the title of the descendants, so as to make an appearance and block the mouths of outsiders.

So what nonsense did he do to the 'ridiculous prince'?

He actually practiced his funeral in advance at his own home!!

He even sat on the spot to direct his wife and concubine's descendants how to stand in line to greet and cry for funeral......

Others knelt on the ground and cried wow, but the prince sat in the coffin and laughed.

This incident later made the imperial historian stab him to the Qianlong Lord.

In the end, Lord Qianlong really couldn't prevaricate, so he gave a punishment of 'ceremonial blasphemy and a fine of three years'.

It means that there is no one in this world who is still alive and has fun with his funeral?

It seems that your family has burned a lot of money, so I will deduct your salary for three years first, and see if you dare.

But you think, this 'Prince Gong' has such a good relationship with Lord Qianlong.

Can you not send him money, so that the prince can say two more good words for himself when he is in private?

Therefore, 'Prince Hegong' didn't take 'a three-year fine' seriously at all, and still did what I wanted to do his ridiculous things.

And Lord Qianlong did not restrict him after that, and finally issued a special decree to let his eldest son Yongbi inherit the prince of 'Prince Hegong' (no downgrade, it is really a great emperor's grace).

Since this sister-in-law has not been demoted to inherit his father's princely title, his younger brothers who have been additionally demoted to the rank of prince (otherwise the salary given by the Ministry of Internal Affairs is not enough to pay) will have to share some of the family property.

Otherwise, it will be too unbalanced, and I am sorry for the affection of a mother and compatriots.

One more thing to say here, although 'Prince Hegong' is a total of Fu Jin, it turns out that among the nine children of the old prince, seven sons and one daughter are all born to the Wuzaku clan of Fu Jin!!

The other side Fu Jin Zhangjia only gave birth to one son and died young.

The worst thing is another side Fujin Cui Jia's family, she has never given birth to a child?!

Do you see that in the family, this lady of the main house absolutely suppresses the other concubines?

Do you dare to go back to find the lady of the main house? Do you know how to write dead words?

I won't say much about it, in short, there is such a ridiculous 'Prince Gong' in front of him as an example, and those who live with the descendants of Prince Gong's Mansion are a luxury of a race.

Therefore, when people at that time mentioned the Zhenguo generals, they specifically referred to their families, because the other Zhenguo generals were all descendants of several generations after being demoted.

No matter how generous the ancestors were, life began to be a little tense at this time.

Only the generals of the town who have been handed down from the 'Prince of Hegong' are in the time of throwing a lot of silver outside.

What the?

Do you want to know how much life these nobles have lived after that?

There is no detailed description of this in the historical materials at that time, but I can give you an example that is close to modern times, and they are also real descendants of the royal palace.

At that time, it was already the fourth year of the Republic of China (1914).

My Great Qing ...... It must be dead.

And the people of the palace have also lost their former wealth and glory, and this day has become more urgent day by day.

It is said that one day, a Ford car broke down on the street.

However, the driver had to toss and turn for a long time in and out of the car, but he couldn't ignite the car.

At this time, a middle-aged man in a shabby cotton jacket came up on the side: "What's the matter, brother? Can't catch fire? ”

The people who could drive cars in those years were not ordinary people, they were all wearing foreign jackets and peaked caps, and they were dressed very foreign!

Therefore, the driver looked up and found that it was actually such a master who was asking questions around him, and he was a little anxious: "Go, go!" I'm busy with food! ”

However, the owner on the other side was not angry at all, but touched the outer shell with his hand.

"I said brother, your car is good, it must cost a lot of money, right?"

Then the driver began to jump to his feet: "Don't move! Do you know how much this thing is worth? Will you pay for it? ”

At this time, I saw the ragged man on the opposite side snorted coldly: "I don't know, I played with this kind of car ten years ago!"

A car in a foreign company is worth 20,500 eagles, and the price is not bargaining! ”

After speaking, the man "poofed" and smiled: "Sitting in the cab like you and tossing, don't think about repairing it for the rest of your life."

Let me help you! ”

After that, the man raised his hand and buckled the hood in front of the car, and he suddenly turned over!

Let me just ask, almost every household has a car now, but how many dare to say that they can go up and turn the hood of a car that has never been driven up? There aren't many people like that, right?

However, at that time, the prince did it!

Not only did they do it, but they also skillfully unscrewed the spark plug on the engine and put it on the placket of their clothes and wiped it.

"See? The spark plug of this car has accumulated dust, and it will definitely not catch fire. ”

At this time, the driver knew that he had met a master, so he quickly got out of the car and kept asking for advice.

I saw that the prince laughed and said, "You, you must have cheered on the blind man Cui in the east of the city."

He is not an authentic man, and he mixes lamp oil (kerosene) with this foreign oil (gasoline).

So his oil is good to accumulate dust, you want to add foreign oil in the future, you have to go to Dehe foreign business, although the oil there is expensive, but the quality is absolutely not to say! ”

After speaking, the prince screwed on the spark plug with two of the three, then opened the car door, went up and twisted the key, and the car started with a 'boom'......

You must know that in 1903, Citigroup had just launched this Ford T300, and the next year, the prince's family in the capital drove the latest foreign car on the other side of the ocean.

This kind of money-burning method, I ask you if you are convinced?
