    But now, if the new nobility system is implemented, the people in Changshou County will no longer have half a copper relationship with him.  At the same time in the novel, because he was granted a title in this dynasty, he can retain the title. If all the titles remain unchanged in the end, after his death and his son inherits the title, he will have to be reduced to one rank. The person who attacked him is not the Duke of Chu.  Instead, he had to change his title to a county prince. Yang Su's real food town of 2,500 households could only get 62,500 copper coins every year, only 62 and a half guans.  This little money was really negligible to him.  The most important thing is that the Duke's permanent land has forty hectares, which is 4,000 acres. Once these permanent fields are given, they will not be taken back. Four thousand acres of land, even if one acre yields one stone, the annual output of 4,000 acres will be  There are also four thousand stones.  Even if you rent it out, you can still harvest a large amount of rented grain every year.  But now, these Yongye fields have to be taken back, and each mu of land will be directly given two buckets of grain per year. Four thousand acres can only get 800 shi of millet a year, and there is no field.  When the son's title is reduced, the food provided will naturally be less, and it will not be the same as before. Regardless of whether the title is reduced or not, it will never change after Yongye Tian is obtained.  Of course, for Yang Su, the loss of income from the food court and the income from the title Yongye Field are the second most important. There are two biggest impacts.  One is that the original hereditary duchy of Chu will be downgraded every generation. If the descendants do not perform meritorious service, the title will be gone after five generations.  Another reason is that because Yang Su repeatedly made great contributions, according to the tradition since the Wei Dynasty, he often distributed some of his father's achievements to his brothers and sons, and granted them titles based on their functions.  For example, Yang Su, because of his repeated great achievements, not only was he awarded the title of Duke of Chu, but now he also has three sons who are all Dukes of Chu. The eldest son Yang Xuangan was also awarded the title of Shangzhu Kingdom, these titles and honors.  They did not get it through their meritorious service, but because of Yang Su's meritorious service, his son was given the title.  But now according to the emperor's new system, the Yang Su family can only retain his Duke's title of Chu State, and the three sons' Duke and County titles are all revoked without reservation.  Even pressed.  The brothers and nephews of Yang Su's family can only retain one title.  Therefore, the county dukedoms of his five brothers will also be cancelled.  Only his uncles and cousins, not his biological brothers and nephews.  Not affected by him.  This new title system has a great impact on Yang Su. For his family, eight duke titles will be revoked, not to mention the food towns and Yongye fields that will be lost as a result.  Of course, Yang Su is pretty good.  After all, his title was conferred in this dynasty, and wealthy families such as Li Mu were originally full of princes and families with dozens of knights. This time, even if a large family is separated, they can only retain a few at most.  The title is almost always downgraded.  Although Yang Su and several other prime ministers suffered great losses and benefits.  I was not happy, but most of the other prime ministers headed by Liu Wenjing expressed their approval of this new system.  Yi Feng saw that Yang Su and others were dissatisfied, but did not object. He smiled and said, "This is the arrangement of the original titles. Tomorrow I will reward all the meritorious ministers for the Northern Expedition and the suppression of the rebellion based on their functions.  , the title will be granted to everyone, and everyone will be equal at that time, no distance will be spared, no humbleness will be spared, only merit will be considered, regardless of family status. " When Liu Wenjing heard this, she couldn't help but express joy.  After the large-scale clean-up and rectification of those old honors, the emperor will definitely follow suit and promote officials and nobles to his direct descendants. As the saying goes, one emperor and one courtier.  Although the new title system will have a great impact on all titles, the income will be reduced a lot.  But for these upstarts who are direct descendants of the emperor, what they care about most now is not financial gain, but the improvement of their political status.  If you can make a prince or a prince, who cares about receiving hundreds of dollars less every year?  Early the next morning, it was a sunny day. All the civil and military officials got up early, dressed up, and rode to the palace on horseback.  The emperor is going to reward people based on their merits today, and the news of being canonized as a lord has already spread.  Many people did not know the system of conferring honors this time and thought it was the same as before.  Many people were walking on the road, thinking in their hearts that the new emperor had ascended the throne. According to the practice for many years, those who have made meritorious services will be rewarded heavily. They themselves will be promoted to a noble title, and their brothers, nephews and brothers will also have the opportunity to be awarded titles and honors.  And even those aristocratic ministers who had not made any meritorious service in the first place were generally able to take advantage of it, be promoted to an official position or granted a title, and even get a title for their descendants.  In short, this should be a day when everyone is happy.  Yang Su was sitting in the carriage, but he didn't look happy at all. He almost didn't sleep all night last night.  The Prime Minister did not take it seriously and said that he had been criticized by the Emperor a few days ago. In a blink of an eye, the opportunity to be promoted to an official position was gone. The Yang family would lose eight Dukes and Marquises. If the uncles, cousins ??and nephews were removed,  Titles, the Yang family will lose more than a dozen titles and tens of thousands of acres of Yongye land.  Hey, Yang Su sighed all the way, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong. Where did this emperor have the courage to strike so cruelly?  He is not afraid that everyone will rise up and overthrow the throne of his Yang family, or that the emperor feels that he has his own direct lineage in Huaihuang and that between Guandong and Jiangnan.?Supporters, can they completely ignore the feelings of 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 and said, "I inherited the title of Duke of Pushan County from my father. To be granted the title of Duke of Pushan County this time is a sign of great favor from the emperor. Don't  "I don't dare to ask for it." "You have the merit of following His Majesty, and you are also the Queen's cousin. This time, I think you have a good chance of being promoted to the title of Duke." "I don't think so anymore.  , But you, Mr. Liu, are now in the position of prime minister. No matter what, you can at least be granted the title of a duke. " "The prime minister's title of duke is just a false title for life. " "You have another servant.  Of course it's different." The two of them were talking together and unknowingly arrived outside the Meridian Gate. The palace gate outside the Meridian Gate was already full of people, waiting for the palace gate to open.  Officials were in groups, all talking about today's knighthood.  The sky was dimming, the palace door opened, and hundreds of officials entered the palace and came to the court. ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Up to the emperor to ascend the palace, the quiet whip sounded, and the emperor took his seat, then the officials turned to face the emperor.  "Long live, long live, long live!" Hundreds of officials knelt down and worshiped, and the mountains shouted long live.  "Everyone is safe." Yi Feng stretched out his hand to help, and then said loudly, "I am now going to award a reward based on my merits, and I will determine the lord. However, I am afraid there are shortcomings. After the reading is completed, I can say it again, Wei Zheng!" "Your Majesty!"  Here." Wei Zheng stepped forward.  "You come and roll the names and announce the rewards." "I obey the order." Wei Zheng came to the imperial steps and shouted loudly, "The Emperor of the Sui Dynasty ordered Gao Qiu to grant hereditary titles to the Duke of Qi. Together with the previous three thousand households,  The title of Yongye Land is 5,000 acres.  Wei Zheng was granted the title of Yongye with 4,000 acres of land, 10,000 guan in cash, and 10,000 pieces of silk.  On the list of meritorious officials, he was actually ranked fourth. After the two prime ministers Gao Jun and Yang Su, and the new emperor's veteran Gao Bo, he was the fourth.  Although he was a county marquis, he was still overjoyed. This was no longer a marquis in the original ninth-class title, nor was it the original marquis under the condition of excessive titles. Now under the fifth-class title system, he could obtain a hereditary county with a real title.  The title of Marquis is already a very high reward.  "Liu Wenjing is promoted to the Marquis of Taiyuan! He is granted the title of 1,500 households and 10,000 pieces of silk." "Li Jing is promoted to the Marquis of Wuwei!" "Qin Shubao is promoted to the Marquis of Jibei, Lai Zheng is promoted to the Marquis of Gaomi, and Dou Jiande is promoted  Hejianhou, Shan Xiongxin, Dongpinghou, and Xu Deyan, Danyanghou." In the court, all the officials became more and more confused as they listened.  After conferring awards for a long time, only three hereditary princes with the highest hereditary titles were granted, and then almost all of them were granted the title of county prince or county uncle. Those who were awarded the title of county prince or county uncle were basically the direct descendants of the emperor.  "The more people listen, the more heartbroken they become, especially the old nobles. They were originally all Dukes, County Dukes, County Dukes or Dukes, but in the end almost all of them were demoted, with Dukes being demoted to Marquises, and Marquises being demoted to Earls.  What makes them look most ugly is that most of their titles have the word "founding the country" in front of them, which means that their titles have become false titles. There are many people who not only add the word "founding the country" in front of their titles, but also add the word "founding the country" to their titles.  Later, the word "life" was added.  Not only did their titles become fictitious titles, with no towns or permanent lands, but they also became lifelong titles, which were removed upon death and no descendants could inherit.  Wei Zheng continued to roll call.  "Shi Wansui was granted the lifelong title of Duke of the Founding of Taiping County, and He Ruobi was granted the title of Hereditary Founding Duke of the Song Dynasty." He Ruobi was originally granted the title of Duke of the Song Dynasty for his contribution to pacifying Chen, but now ten years later, he has become a false hereditary Duke.  Long, but when he turned around to see Shi Wansui, his face was already reddened, and he deliberately said to him, "Oh, did Wei Zheng mispronounce it? Why did General Shi only make a county clerk, but also a lifelong one?"  Lord. Oops, it¡¯s really strange that he is not as good as the founding father of the country. He must have made a mistake.¡± Shi Wansui¡¯s face was swollen, and his big hands had already been squeezed into the sleeves of his official robe.  fist.  The roll call for awards is still going on, but many people, such as Shi Wansui and He Ruobi, have already been disappointed and their hearts are burning with anger.  Especially Shi Wansui, he has always thought highly of himself and even regarded himself as a famous general of the dynasty.  But now Shi Wansui has only been given the false title of Kaiguo County Bodhisattva. Not to mention the false title, he still gets a lifetime title.  Let¡¯s look at the names mentioned earlier. The title of Gaomi County Marquis is hereditary.  Damn, this guy is less than twenty years old, and he's already been awarded such a high title.  I think back then, he led his army to quell the rebellion in Jiangnan.At that time, Lai Zheng's father Lai Huer was just a soldier in the counter-rebellion army, not even a team leader.  But now, the sons who come to protect the children are all fucking hereditary princes, but he is still just a false and lifelong founding county magistrate. Is there any room left for him to be reasonable?  The emperor was slapping Shi Wansui in the face and insulting him in front of the civil and military officials of the court.  (To be continued. (.))
