Han Zuo Gaomen

Chapter 1492
Compared with the grand and lengthy ceremony of the emperor's ascension to the throne, the process of honoring the Supreme Emperor was much more concise. The ceremony took only more than an hour, and then the father and son entertained the officials.

However, Shen Chong is not dissatisfied with this. The fortune he enjoys now is unimaginable in his early dreams, and it is enough to make the world envious.If there is a little disappointment, it is that my best friend Qian Feng has never been able to show up in front of people openly and share this joy with him.

The friendship between Shen Chong and Qian Feng is definitely not a collusion based on power and interests. They have similar family backgrounds, similar interests, and they are always good friends. They are lifelong friends.

Moreover, Qian Feng also helped the Shen family a lot. Whether it was under the command of Wang Dun in the early years, or after hiding behind the scenes and traveling to Hebei, including after the Shen family really gained power, many Shen Chong fathers and sons were inconvenient to deal with or did not have the energy to do it. Qian Feng was silently presiding over everything.

Times have changed now, and Qian Feng's old crimes have almost been washed away after the Shen family came to power in Jiangdong.Logically speaking, even if Qian Feng's identity is disclosed, no one would still cling to the past.

However, after so many years of hiding, Qian Feng has no eagerness to reveal his identity.And even if his identity is public, many of the things he does are actually difficult to get formal praise. If he is too deep in conspiracy, he will inevitably have a bad reputation. Once it is widely known to the world, it will affect the development of his children.

In fact, according to the relationship between Qian Feng and Shen Chong, even if he can't enjoy the honor himself, his children will definitely get the full care of Shen.Qian Feng's only son, Qian Mo, is now working in Taiwan, and he also joined the secret pavilion northbound before, with a bright future.If it hadn't been for His Majesty the Emperor's consideration that their father and son get together less and leave more, Qian Mo should have stayed in Hebei to take up the prefecture and county and take charge of one side.

But even so, after the banquet ended, Shen Chong felt that he owed a lot to his best friend because of the great honor he enjoyed, and specially told the emperor to give Qian enough in the later conferring ceremony. compensate.

In fact, Shen Zhezi would not ignore this matter even without his father's instructions.With the recovery of Hebei, many secret past events of the Jie Kingdom were also revealed in the confessions of many prisoners of war, allowing Shen Zhezi to more comprehensively outline the process of the death of Shi Le, the former leader of the Jie Kingdom, and the key role played by Qian Feng in it Learn more.

Qian Feng is indeed not a good talent for governing the country. Even though he has some conspiracies, he seems a bit clumsy and ridiculous when he is darker than the general situation.But once arranged in a suitable situation and position, it can play an irreplaceable role for others.

Of course, regardless of these things, Shen Zhezi will also give Qian's family full preferential treatment just to satisfy his father's demands.

It is very simple to solve the issue of the regulations on the treatment of the Supreme Emperor, after all, there is the old rule of Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty as the basis.The Emperor Taishang did not live in the forbidden area, and expanded the small town of Xuanren into the Shouxing Palace, which served as the emperor's honorary residence.

This place was originally the emperor's old residence, and the alleyway between the walls leads directly to the ban, so it is convenient to travel, and the safety is also guaranteed enough, but there are not many restrictions in the ban.The scale is also not small, it is enough for the emperor to cultivate himself here, to have a banquet to see old people, even if he is homesick, it is also enough to set up a large number of scenery of Wu Township in a small town to entertain the audience, Shen Chong is also very satisfied with this arrangement.

On the fourth day of the ceremony, the ministers petitioned for the establishment of the Kunji Central Palace.There is no doubt about this point. His Majesty the Emperor did not have many wives and concubines. The Sima family was originally married at a young age. The husband and wife were affectionate and had two sons in succession. the best choice.

Because after the courtiers petitioned, the emperor immediately issued an edict to make his wife, Sima, the empress, and the two saints lived together, and received congratulations from the courtiers in the Hall of Liangyi.Afterwards, the empress issued a decree again. Among the emperor's two concubines, the Cui family was registered as a noble concubine, and the other concubine, Gua'er, was born in the Shen family, so she simply gave the emperor's surname as Shu concubine.

So far, the ceremony surrounding the emperor's family has come to an end.Afterwards, it was natural to enjoy the conferring ceremony with everyone. His Majesty the Emperor honored and rewarded his family members and ministers in the Hanyuan Hall of the Outer Court, and the Empress met the nobles and wives in the Changqiu Hall of the Inner Court.

With the establishment of a new dynasty, the conferment of noble orders can be said to be a major event equivalent to the emperor's appointment to the throne. Taichung has also widely discussed this point, and it has been discussed for a long time.

The most important point in this is naturally the issue of the appointment of the clansmen.In particular, the Shen family has a huge family and many ethnic groups. Any slight difference can produce great effects in practice.However, in the previous dynasty, the Sima Clan's clan exercised power and harmed the common people and the country. It is also a lesson from the past, so it is necessary to be very cautious.

In the end, the final decision was made, that is, the relatives in the Shen family were roughly divided into three levels: Prince, County King, and Founding County Marquis.Only the Taishang Emperor's brothers, Shen Ke, was named King of Chu, Shen Hong was named King of Yue, Shen Ke was named King of Wei, Shen Yi was named King of Zheng, and Zhuangyao was named King of Han and Song respectively. Attacked by his heir, Yitong County King.

The princes and successor kings eat and pay but have no share in the city, live in the middle instead of serving the country, and work in vain and enjoy the glory, and they are not attached to the post.In other words, once he is promoted to Prince, he will be the ancestor of all lines and can be honored and raised, but he will no longer be involved in military, political and court affairs.

In the next generation, the Shen clan has grown in number. There are as many as 12 cousins ​​in Shen Zhezi's generation alone, and the old guys are still young and vigorous, able to give birth and support them.According to the patriarchal law, no one under the age of 16 will be conferred a title. Shen Ke's son and Shen Hong's two sons are included. But even so, ten county kings are still awarded, with Wei Wang Shen Ke and Zheng Wang Shen Yi each having one son. Extraordinary conferring.

In addition, there are those who have accumulated meritorious service among the clan members, and they have to be awarded to the three county kings.In addition to the kings who are the kings, the kings can also play the Taiwan province and Zongzheng, please establish the king's son, and the king's son will be the same as the county king without salary.The kings descended from generation to generation, and the princes were eliminated in the Five Dynasties. Only the princes kept the heirs, and they inherited the royal etiquette without being called the king.

It should be said that this set of patriarchal patriarchal lineages has quite a lot of restrictions on the clan.Just because the prince doesn't take care of the country or interfere in politics, more than half of the clan's ability to protect them has been abolished.

King Sejong of Jin's misfortune to the country is one aspect, but in the current world, if the emperor's family becomes a purely lonely family, there will be many hidden dangers in the current world.

For example, His Majesty the Emperor himself still needs the brothers to take care of some internal and external affairs, so he simply suppressed Shen Mu and Shen Yun. It is also to leave a room for improvement for their main staff. In the future, they will make great achievements in the future, and if they are awarded a level, they can be raised by Luo Rong.

As for the other members of the Shen clan, dukes were not conferred according to their titles. The only reason for this was that the clan was too large. Once in order, it would not be difficult for the relatives in the Shen clan to gather a hundred or ten dukes.Even if the fiefdom is not granted, it is just food and salary, which is quite a huge number, and it can be directly descended to the county marquis, and the attack will be limited to three generations.

Of course, if any of these clansmen really have meritorious service and meritorious service, they may not accept the conferment of the clan family members, but instead receive a higher title based on meritorious service.

In addition to clan relatives, there are also relatives-in-law, and if the relatives-in-law are awarded titles only by family members, the highest is at the county marquis level, only the mother's family of the queen, princess or concubine may add a son, or pass it on for a generation.

Of course, the rules are set like this, but there is still a special existence, that is, the retired emperor Sima Yan, who is naturally not treated by ordinary in-laws, and needs to be given special treatment, and the royal etiquette has not changed for three generations.

In the system of meritorious titles in the New Dynasty of Daliang, in addition to the founding Duke, County Duke, County Marquis, Township Marquis, Uncle, Zi, and Nan, there is an additional level of Duke at the top, the Prince of Yitong.As for the award of meritorious service, the earl is the starting point. There are also no titles and no eunuchs. Therefore, the earl is simply divided into four names: Zhongyong, Zhongyi, Zhongren, and Zhongli.

As for the two levels of son and man, they are not awarded to courtiers as meritorious titles, but only as extended titles granted by the descendants of nobles.In other words, as long as the title is reduced to this level, it is necessary to find a way to revitalize the family business, otherwise the next generation will be expelled from the honorary system.

The four people with the highest level of meritorious service are Ma Yan of the Jin State Company, Yu Yi, the Duke of the Qiao State, Du He, the Duke of the State of Xu, and Guo Song, the Duke of the Lu State.

Among them, Ma Yan of the Jin State Company is not only the retired emperor of the previous dynasty, but also the heir of the righteous leader, and the queen's close relative. Although Xinliang inherits the previous dynasty politically, it is difficult to completely erase the existence of the Jin Dynasty, because it has to grant the country male.

Yu Yi's identity is also very complicated. He is not only a relic of the former dynasty, but also an important official in Shaanxi Province. Making him a Duke of the State can not only comfort the old people, but also comfort the present people.

As for Du He and Guo Song, they were the representatives of the civil and military fields of the new dynasty.

Du He has been in charge of the government affairs of the Governor's Mansion since he went to Tuzhong in his early years. After the establishment of Xingtai, he has fully presided over the government affairs. He can be the first in this regard.

In terms of military merit, the competition is more intense.The reason why Guo Song was conferred, besides his own military merits, is that he is the veteran who has followed His Majesty the longest. dispute.

At the county level, it is almost completely dominated by warriors.12 people won the title, Xie Ai, Han Huang, Lu Yong, Mao Bao, Xie Yi, Xiao Min, He Xi, Huan Xuan, Li Hong, Shan Xia, Ji Mu, Jiang Xi, among them Huan Xuan, Li Hong, Shan All three of them are posthumous gifts.Among them, except for the Shanya presented by He Xi and Jiang Xi, the rest are all generals.

In addition to these 12 people, there are Shen Xian and Shen Shen, who may not be as prosperous as the top twelve in terms of merit, but they are clan members after all, and they have to be named county princes even if they are promoted to the first level.

Below the county magistrate, 20 people can be awarded the county magistrate.Of course, it doesn't mean that the meritorious service of the county magistrate must be inferior to that of the county magistrate, it's just that due to some reasons, he was restrained a little, and Xu moved later.For example, Yu Tiao and Yu Manzhi, the uncles and nephews of the Yu family, also have a lot of achievements in terms of merit, but the family has already produced a super-qualified prince, who is too honored and favored, so he can only temporarily be degraded.

There is also Xin Bin who broke through Xindu and captured Shihu alive, because political public opinion is still belittling Shihu at present, and his great achievements have not been taken seriously. level one.
