Chastity Layman 2

Chapter 1467 Arranging the funeral
So if it is sealed to Nanyang Prefecture, it is far away and unfamiliar, but they still have to send people to develop it. After all, a fief is a piece of obligation. You have to pay taxes, perform military service, and have to guard the frontier for the king and maintain law and order.

Of course, for the sons and grandchildren of the Qin family who were enfeoffed this time, Qin Lang not only gave them a piece of land, but also gave them a certain amount of money, population, etc., so that they could gain a foothold.

This can be regarded as before Qin Lang's death, he divided the family well in advance, so as to avoid his children and grandchildren fighting for the family property in the future.

After this enfeoffment, give them a sum of property, then they are already the descendants of the enfeoffment clan, and they will not be eligible to come back to fight for the royal family's property in the future.

Just like what Old Huang Gang said, tomorrow he will divide his fiefdom among his children and grandchildren. He is over 100 years old, who knows when he will close his eyes and never wake up again.

Qin Lang gave those who were entrusted with titles, and gave them money and property. For those who were not allocated titles but still had some ability, he used his own fief to give them.

The children of princes, nobles and officials must abide by the system of eldest son succession. Of course, the Qin family also allows them to be entrusted with entrustment, but if they are not entrusted with titles and lands, they will become commoners and no longer nobles. .

Of course, being a son of a nobleman will always have some privileges, such as being able to go to Luzon San Francisco to study at a university with your family background, and even be eligible to take the official examination.

Even if you don't have the qualifications to go to university or be an official, depending on your family background, even if you are a landlord or even a wealthy businessman, you can still be a landlord, no matter how bad you are, you will not be worse than ordinary people.

Lao Huang is old, although he is very free and easy, but at this time he still wants to make arrangements for his children and grandchildren.

Luzon's new enfeoffment system is quite different from the court's enfeoffment system. Although they are all enfeoffments, the imperial court's external enfeoffments and even autonomous vassals, such as the Kingdom of Luzon, are more bold and avant-garde than Luzon.And the rights and interests of their feudal territories are far inferior to those of Luzon.

The imperial court has honorary titles of the [-]th grade for honorary officers, and above the honorary titles, there are Sanjue fiefs, real feudal fiefs, and world feudal territories, which are progressive in layers.

However, Lao Huang thinks that Lu Song's change now is quite good.

"I originally planned to die of old age in Luzon, San Francisco, and stay in the manor in the middle of the mountain, looking at the white sand beach and Bihai Bay, listening to the gentle sea breeze and never waking up. It is best to die in the beautiful sunset and sunset Among them, the scenery is really the best scenery I have ever seen in my life, and I have never tired of watching it."

"I also thought that when I die, let my unfilial descendants transport my coffin back to my hometown in Shandong and bury it in the back mountain of that small village that is no longer a stranger."

Lao Huang shook his head and smiled.

"Now I have changed my mind. After tomorrow I give the fiefdom to my children and grandchildren, I will set off for Xinkuaiji Island to be my new Kuaiji County Magistrate and Xin Kuaiji Hou. I will build a new building there. Fort Kuaiji Hou, choose a beautiful hillside by the bay, and when I die, I will be buried there directly, and it will become the first grave of the new Kuaijihou family!"

Qin Lang patted the back of Lao Huang's hand, "I really don't want you to leave San Francisco, but since you have such an idea, I support you, I will send you a boat, and I will send you some craftsmen."

"No need, my old Huang has not only given birth to more than 20 children, taken nearly a hundred concubines, and earned millions of dollars in family property in the past few decades since I went south to Lingnan. In terms of saving money, my ability But it’s not bad, even if there are many daughters and granddaughters, it costs a lot to buy dowries for them, it also costs a lot to marry my children and grandchildren, and it takes a lot to get more than 100 concubines for myself, but building a new Kuaiji Fortress It’s still more than enough, and a small fishing port can even be built there…”

"Accept it, this is my congratulatory gift to you." Qin Lang said.

Old Huang no longer objected.

After a long time, Lao Huang sighed, "Now I often dream about the past when I was in Chang'an. I recall the past five or sixty years ago when I went south with you to Wu'an, but it seems like yesterday. It becomes clearer and clearer. I don't have much time. gone."

Qin Lang wanted to comfort him a few words, but Lao Huang laughed a few times, "In this life, the luckiest thing is to meet King Zhongwu and Saburo, especially you, Sanlang, I have enjoyed it all with Lao Huang. Wealth and ostentation in the world, living for more than 100 years, taking more than 100 concubines, it is worth it!"

"I was just a lowly poor man in Shandong, a horse thief in troubled times, but I can live to be more than 100 years old, with more than 100 descendants, and when I die, I will have to be named the new Marquis of Kuaiji. It is enough to get such a big island!"

"Old Huang, back then in Luoyang, if you hadn't desperately protected me as I fled westward, and if you hadn't risked your life to protect me along the way, Qin Lang would have been fixed at the age of 11. How could there be such things later on? Not to mention how rich it is now!"

"Hahaha, in fact, I also thought about leaving you alone to escape from Wang Shichong's men, but I remember the kindness of King Zhongwu not to kill me, and I promised him to take good care of you. A promise is a thousand dollars, anyway, I will die!"

"But it's because of your fate that you survived the serious injury back then, and you mean what you say. You told me to be strict with the rich and the rich and never forget each other, but you did it."

"A man promises a thousand gold!" Qin Lang also said with a smile.

"It's been 70 years." Old Huang said, "When you told me this, it was 70 years ago. At that time, we were hiding in Tibet, chased by Zheng Bing and bitten by wild dogs on the road to the west. , precarious, at stake."

"It's been more than 70 years." Qin Lang couldn't help sighing.

"Time flies so fast."

"Yeah, at that time, who of us would have thought that we would be able to talk about this escape experience 70 years later? I am over 100 years old, and you are 85. Two embarrassed guys who almost became hungry in the belly of wild dogs, and now one is aloof. The majestic Grand Master of the Tang Dynasty, the King of Luzon, the Nanyang Propaganda Envoy, and the Governor of Nanyang Province, one is the Luzon New Kuaijihou, haha, it is really unexpected!"

"Ah Huang, I can live a few more years in this happy life. I can't bear to have you leave. Without you, I will be very lonely."

Old Huang laughed.

"I can't do it anymore. I already feel it. People are going to die. I can really feel it. This is the feeling that the end has come."

"Ugh!"

"You'll be fine for another 30 years. Without me, wouldn't you still have the head of a leopard? That dead horse, a rogue, drunk and lustful, I don't think you might be able to live with it."

The vast majority of horses only live for 30 to 70 years, and very few can live to 12 to 70 years. But a horse at one year old can be equivalent to 210 years of human age, and at two years of age is equivalent to a human being. The leopard head, which is almost [-] years old now, is actually equivalent to [-] six years old for human beings.

In fact, the leopard head has long since failed. Qin Lang hired the best veterinary team and used the best medicine to maintain it. Ten years ago, he could not stand up, but he still had no sex, and even He always likes to arrange a few fillies in his stable to be happy.

This horse is the cub of Qin Qiong's Hulei refuting mare back then. It was delivered by Ah Huang himself and raised by him. After so many years, Qin Lang's mount has changed many horses, but this horse is the only one. Horses are like old friends.

After Qin Qiong's death, Hu Lei died of a hunger strike.

Qin Lang felt that maybe it was because of his longevity that the leopard head persisted until now, and maybe one day he died, and the leopard head might also die.

This is a very mysterious and mysterious thing, but Qin Lang firmly believes it.

"Do you think I should recall Qin Lun to Luzon and let him go to Nanshan Island and seal him off?"

Ah Huang tilted his head and asked, "What are you worried about? I'm worried about what 21 Lang will think after you suddenly kick your legs. Don't worry, 21 Lang is the emperor's wife and grandfather, but he doesn't have the ability like you, and he is not even as good as Qin Qin. Jun and Qin Xiaozhong."

"I know that Qin Lun's ability can only be regarded as above-average, but the more he is like this, the more worried he becomes. Now that I am still alive, no one in the Qin family dares to touch him, but in a few years, after I die, it may be different Because Qin Lun is the queen's grandfather, I thought it would be better to let him come back as soon as possible. Anyway, he has also become the prime minister, and he has done his best for the Qin family, leaving good resources for his children and grandchildren."

"But he's just 50 years old, so he might not be willing to come back, right? Luoyang is so prosperous, even San Francisco is far behind, let alone that ghostly place in Nanfangzhou. I have been there with you, and I have been there for several months at a time. The only thing that I forget deeply is the kangaroos that can punch and jump. The tails are good to eat, and the meat is far worse than beef and mutton. There are also platypus, which are also quite magical. In this place, apart from being big and barren, would Qin Lun be willing to come back in front of the head of Luoyang?"

"It's not like everyone is you, Qin Sanlang. You don't love the central power at all, and you can leave as soon as you say."

Qin Lun is Qin Lang's second son. He is only 50 years old this year. He is also Qin Lang's youngest son. He is one year younger than his eldest grandson Xiaozhong. Now the two descendants of the Qin family who are prime ministers, Qin Lun has the same aptitude and state of mind. Not as good as Qin Xiaozhong.

Qin Lang thinks that judging people is more accurate. Qin Lun is not a very ambitious person, but he is indeed a person who likes to enjoy himself, and he is not even willing to give up the power in his hands. But the more so, the more Qin Lang thinks it is necessary call him back.

Power is an addictive drug.

Now Qin Lun doesn't have any thoughts that he shouldn't have, but he is afraid that after a long time in the central government, he will gradually have them after his status rises.

"Sanlang, if you call Qin Lun back, will Xiao Zhong call him back? If you only call 21 Lang, then he may have a grudge in his heart and will not be convinced."

Qin Lang thought for a while, "The new emperor gives me the feeling that he is not a simple emperor. I am afraid that Qin Lun will make mistakes in his hands in the future."

"If you really feel this way, then you can call 21 Lang back. Even if he is unhappy now, it's better than something happened in the future."
