Chapter 538

The next day, the red warbler set off for the South with dozens of generals and a group of guards.

Although the canal has been dredged for a long time, everyone is a soldier. Naturally, they will not choose to take a boat and speed up all the way. They just arrived in Nanjing in more than 20 days.

At this time, it was the end of November, and generals from Northwest China, Sichuan and Guangdong and Guangxi also arrived one after another. They were accompanied by a large number of surrender generals such as Li Guo, sun Wang and AI nengqi.

For a time, the city of Nanjing was full of stars and bustling, and the landlords and gentry who had just stopped came alive and began to secretly woo these generals.

Invitations are sent one by one. The daughter of the family is also beautifully dressed, and the matchmaker has become a hot commodity.

Obviously, although Qin Huan didn't say it clearly, everyone knew that calling all the generals back this time must be a big reward. Titles, land and money are indispensable, so countless gentry and landlords want to marry their daughters to these generals with arms and horses.

The reason why they were unable to resist Qin Huan's tyranny was that they had no soldiers in their hands? As long as these generals don't agree with the new deal, even one or two adults will make Qin Yu seriously consider it.

The biggest bargaining chip to win over these generals is his own daughter. After all, Qin Huan can give them money, status and land, but he can't give them a famous girl, Miss Qianjin, as his wife.

As for the famous prostitutes in Qinhuai River, even if they are both talented and beautiful, they can't compare with their daughters after all.

The women who were imprisoned by the family Raiders hated Qin Huan to the bone. They believed that Qin Huan would never dare to marry those young ladies to these generals.

What the lady college teaches is just a group of literate village girls. The real rich daughter is either young or lost her body, which can't be compared.

However, Qin Huan could not have been unprepared for these landlords and gentry and used indiscriminate means, so he gathered everyone together and watched them firmly. He could not go out and wander around without anything.

He would never let these mainstays become the son-in-law of those gentry and landlords.

I have to say that it is necessary to be on guard, because most of the generals who came to the meeting were young men of about 20. Although they all had concubines, there was no wife.

The reason for this is that the military stipulates that it is not allowed to marry the daughter of the landlord and gentry. In addition to these famous girls, they really can't find a suitable woman to be a wife, so they have been dragged down.

When they came to Jiangnan this time, almost all the generals without a wife had the idea of looking for a lady from a big family to be their wife. After all, the world has been decided, and your majesty should no longer take charge of it, but what they didn't expect is that your majesty took more strict control than before.

It is impossible to say that there is no resentment in everyone's heart, so everyone is drinking muggy wine in the yard. When they first came, their joy and excitement were diluted a lot.

The demobilized generals were the most worried, especially Lao sun. If he was not desperate, he would never surrender. Now he can only pray that Qin Huan would be like an emperor when he became an emperor. He won't care about the bad things of Chen GuZi. After all, he has suffered losses all the time, and he was cheated.

The gentry and landlords also scolded Qin Huan for being shameless, but they were not in a hurry. If they could prevent this kind of thing on the first day of junior high school, they would have a chance. After all, they could not pull their daughter to the door for a blind date.

They could not do such a thing, but Qin Huan could do it. As soon as he arrived, he called all the more than 100 generals into the palace.

Compared with the previous dynasties, Qin Huan granted awards in the main hall. This time, Qin Huan held the ceremony of conferring titles directly in the big square outside the Fengtian hall. In addition to more than 100 generals, civil servants above the third grade in the capital were also present.

This time, Qin Huan issued hundreds of imperial edicts at one go. Except that demoting generals only conferred military ranks, other generals were conferred titles and knights, and many of them were upgraded.

There are few civil servants who can be knighted. Except for a few people such as Qian bin and Wang can, others can only be spectators, not to mention envy.

A total of 11 Dukes were granted, namely Li Dingguo, eight teenagers surnamed Qin, the old man of the Xiao family and the old man of the Zhang family. Both belong to the royal family.

Zhang Yan's credit is really not small, let alone Xiao Xinru. She is definitely a veteran, but she can't canonize them directly, so she can only be canonized to their family.

There are more than 50 Marquis, except for more than 30 young people who followed the Qin army when they were in Gucheng, such as Cao Bianjiao, Zuo Liangyu, Wu Sangui, Lu Xiangsheng, Li Yan, Niu Jinxing, Qian bin, Wang can, Qin Lihua, etc.

There are more than 100 earls, and most of them are young and young people who joined in Xiangyang and Yunyang.

There are more barons and viscounts, adding up to more than 1000. Most of these people are not qualified to come to the capital. They are some qualified senior captains and officers of various legions, and a few meritorious Mongolian cavalry in the Central Plains war. At that time, angels will announce decrees and issue Royal edicts.

Different from previous dynasties, these titles are not hereditary, but decreasing one by one. They are handed down one level from generation to generation. Usually there is no additional salary, only a royal Edict and a gold medal.

Of course, it is not only a symbol of honor, but also privilege.

That is, a man with a title cannot commit directly to arrest, but instead, he can only restrict the scope of activities, put house arrest in his home, and then investigate, irrefutable evidence before the court, and the court will report to the emperor again, and then he will be deprived of the title before he can sentence.

However, the Royal supervision office is an exception, but only with the emperor's edict can they be directly arrested and interrogated, and then handed over to the court for direct sentencing.

Although there is no additional salary at ordinary times, the one-time reward is still very rich. The Duke rewarded 1000 liang of gold, 10000 liang of silver, the Marquis rewarded 500 liang of gold, 5000 liang of silver, the count rewarded 100 liang of gold, 1000 liang of silver, the Viscount rewarded 50 liang of gold, 1000 liang of silver, the Baron rewarded 10 liang of gold and 500 liang of silver.

They are all real gold and silver. Gold is a gold bar with a weight of twelve and silver is a treasure of fifty-one. In addition, each person will be awarded a hundred mu of private land. The Duke and Marquis also awarded a house near Nanjing City, which is a big house with five entrances. The income from house copying has been sealed up before.

As for women, it is said that everyone is equal, we should emphasize the rule of law, build a civilized society and directly reward women. This uncivilized thing can no longer be done, but to change a euphemism, called blind date.

After all, with wealth and status, now even the house has a group of beautiful women. It's inappropriate to look at it anyway.

Therefore, after the ceremony of conferring the title of knighthood, people such as Qian bin and Wang can were kicked out, because these guys didn't know how many Qianjin girls in Jiangnan were concubines and famous girls were wives, but it's gratifying that none of them abandoned their bad bran wife.

For example, Qian bin, a guy who couldn't pass the exam, although he took a concubine in five or six rooms, he still took his wife to Nanjing early to enjoy his happiness.

More than 100 generals followed Qin Huan through the Fengtian hall and came to the small square inside. Their eyes immediately widened.

Because when you look around, there are hundreds of well-dressed women standing there. Almost all of them are gentle, tall, young and beautiful. They are blind. Many people are stunned on the spot and don't know where their eyes should be.

After Wu Sangui reacted, he looked up desperately. However, hundreds of women were wearing red clothes and skirts. After looking for him for a long time, they didn't see his roundness.
