Wei and Jin Cooks

Chapter 1298: merit

Fu Tinghan wrote down for her, "Is the land actually sealed?"

Zhao Hanzhang shook his head, "Are we going back to the enfeoffment system and following the same old path as the Han and Jin Dynasties? The First Emperor changed the enfeoffment system to the county system. All the meritorious officials only enjoyed the tax fiefdom, but did not have actual control over the food fiefdom. I think it is very good .”

“Moreover, the Daiguo also needs to change the real and virtual titles. Erlang is no exception and must set an example.”

 Now it is the Kingdom of Dai, and in the future she will also take back Xiliang and Shu, but the time has not come yet, so she will not move.

Zhao Hanzhang said: "Not only Erlang is like this, but our children will also be like this in the future. No one is allowed to be granted the title."

 Fu Tinghan nodded. He had no objection. "How much?"

Zhao Hanzhang thought for a while and then said: "Our population is too small. Although I would like to seal more households, but there are not that many people now, let's seal five thousand households."

From now on, the five thousand households in his fiefdom will be handed over to him according to the annual taxes.

 Fu Tinghan's Notes (Part 1).

Zhao Hanzhang looked at it and felt bad, "No, there is still a lot of land that has not been taken back. He will definitely make meritorious deeds in the future. If he is made a prince now, how will he be made a prince in the future? We can't let him be the prince's young master. Something like that, right?”

Fu Tinghan immediately said: "I think there are many people in the court who can be children's teachers, forget it Erlang."

Zhao Hanzhang also felt the same way, "Let's grant him the title of Prince of Qin County, with five thousand households. When he makes meritorious service in the future, maybe the population will increase, and we will add more to him at that time."

 Fu Tinghan's Notes (Part 1).

Zhao Hanzhang looked at Ji Yuan, who was ranked second, "Mr. Ji has made great contributions to the country. He has worked very hard. Let's make him a Duke. The only one who has the same merit as him is General Beigong."

 Fu Tinghan asked: “Where is Shi Le?”

Zhao Hanzhang frowned, thought for a while and said: "I plan to make Zu Ti a marquis. They all have a lot of room for improvement. Shi Le can't be granted a higher title, just like Zu Ti."

 Zhao Ming has been helping her to stabilize the Yuzhou rear area. He has been dealing with the affairs of the aristocratic clan for her, and he deserves a title.

Zhao Hanzhang's eyes fell on Fan Ying and Sun Linghui. She crossed out Sun Linghui's name, "She, Zhao Kuan and others' merits are not enough to be awarded the title of marquis. Fan Ying and Chen Siniang are not well-known among court officials, but I will The land that came down can be stabilized quickly, and the two of them have contributed a lot."

Fan Ying has always been with Zhao Hanzhang, and government affairs are carried out through her hands. It can be said that everyone who knows Zhao Hanzhang among the people will know Fan Ying.

 Before the destruction of the Huns, the two of them were inseparable.

Not to mention Chen Siniang, she took care of all the orphaned children and elderly people they took back. Although Zhao Cheng was in charge of the school, he was running around, and it was Chen Siniang who actually implemented it.

  Women's education in the private sector is quite restricted. In recent years, Zhao Hanzhang has been recruiting female officials continuously. First, she relies on her own reputation and status, and secondly, she relies on Chen Siniang's publicity.

Zhao Hanzhang ranked Chen Siniang in front of Fan Ying and said: "If one of these girls gets a royal title, it must be her."

 Fu Tinghan raised his eyebrows, "I thought you would choose Fan Ying or Wang Yifeng."

Chen Siniang rarely saw Zhao Hanzhang for a year, and they mostly exchanged letters. Her work was almost at the grassroots level, and no more than half of the officials in the DPRK and the Central Government knew her. In contrast, the court officials were very familiar with Fan Ying and sisters Wang Yifeng and Wang Huifeng. Everyone knew them and admired them.

Zhao Hanzhang said: "What she does is not obvious at the moment, but it will benefit the future. It is difficult to imagine that you can give full play to your talents like Fan Ying and Wang Yifeng, but you can be determined like her to make long-term plans for education, women and children. ,Harder."

Zhao Hanzhang said: "Why do you think I called her back from the place? To let her participate in the establishment of the new law. In order to ensure the rights and interests of women and children in the world, she must participate in the establishment of the law."

 Since the year that she followed her, Chen Siniang has been doing related work, and it is not just this job. She does a variety of things, but she has her own ideas.

Zhao Hanzhang got out of bed, ran to the small study and picked up a box, opened it and showed it to him, and whispered: "What do you think this is?"

Fu Tinghan, who had already seen the letter, glanced at her and guessed honestly: "It's the letter."

Zhao Hanzhang took out two letters from the bottom and said: "You must have never imagined that she asked me in the letter why, even though we are human beings, it is much more difficult for women to survive in this world than for men. Not to mention special circumstances such as war, in peacetime , there are also many disasters for women, for example, even without the war in Xiping County, her life in the Song family would not have been easy."

"She found the reason herself and believed that there were two points. One is that women are generally less powerful than men, and the value of the harvest during farming is lower; the other is due to culture. For this reason, she also tried to find ways to solve this situation." Zhao Hanzhang said: "Improving the value of women's work is one thing, but it is also necessary to legislate and amend books to improve it legally and culturally."

"Without me, she is already paving the way for the future of women. In addition to women, there are also children. The children are weak and often bullied and bought and sold. She wants to legislate to reduce and eliminate the trend of buying and selling."

"Parents and children are human relations, and selling children and having children is an extremely human thing. Why do people nowadays do it so naturally? We can't blame these ordinary people who can't even afford food and clothing, because this is the understanding they have received since childhood. , so we need to change from the legal and cultural perspective.”

Zhao Hanzhang said: "When we watch plays and TV dramas, there is often a saying that princes who break the law are guilty of the same crime as the people. But in fact, the royal laws of the past dynasties have never said that they are guilty of the same crime. If the master kills his servant, he will be sentenced to exile at most. He can also use money to atone for his crime and be marked. A few dozen boards and that’s it.”

"But beating the master is the death penalty for a servant. Therefore, the laws have always been unequal. Even I can't demand that all laws be overthrown and re-established as soon as I come up." Zhao Hanzhang said: "Chen Siniang also has this ambition. We I want to abolish the law of buying out slaves and allow only living covenants to exist.”

 The legal status and rights and responsibilities represented by the death contract and the living contract of a slave are completely different.

A slave under a death contract will not only be a slave for life, but his sons and grandsons will also be slaves for generations to come.

Do you think all slaves and maids will live like the ladies in A Dream of Red Mansions?

 The actual situation is that ninety-nine percent of the slaves in this world live the same life as cattle and sheep, without enough food and clothing.

Zhao Hu is considered a generous master, but most of his servants, as long as they are not in front of him, wear patched and patchy clothes. They can't save two cents a year after hard work. .

If a good-looking and clever child is born, Zhao Hu may give it away. And for those who can do well like three gold and five silver, when Zhao Hu dies, he may be asked to be buried as a sacrifice.

From Zhao Hu’s standpoint, it seems that he deserves it, but what if he is from the standpoint of a slave?

  Working hard all your life, but in the end, you have lost nothing, and you cannot even choose life or death freely.

As the head of the country, she must not only think about the identity of one party. What she wants to ensure is the interests of the vast majority of people.

 She first hopes that every citizen will have basic rights and interests protected in her country, and then all living beings can live in harmony, so that heaven, earth, and humans will be one, and all things will be in harmony.
