Chapter 410： Received Duke

Under fierce persuasion by Wu Ting and others, Xie Yuan "reluctantly" agreed to distribute part of Ye Anlan's achievements to her adoptive father and her former subordinates.

Wu Ting and the others thought their plan had succeeded, and their minds were filled with the excitement and pride that they had won the victory and kept their status and dignity as men, but they didn't know that this was actually a solution that Xie Yuan and Ye Anlan had agreed on long ago.

Before Pei Yuanjiang and Zhao Zongrong were crowned kings, Xie Yuan had already summoned Ye Anlan alone.

His original plan was to persuade Ye Anlan to give up giving credit to others, but unexpectedly, Ye Anlan insisted on sharing part of his credit to Ye Jinkui and others after learning that he could have a queen with a different surname.

In addition to being grateful to Ye Jinkui and others for everything they have done for her, Ye Anlan also doesn't want her status to be too high or too conspicuous, because it will be very detrimental to what she is going to do next.

She is indeed, as Xie Yuan said, capable of dealing with those stubborn guys. If she is capable, the more they look down on women, the more she slaps them in the face with her achievements.

But the question is, why is she wasting time with these guys whose brains are made of concrete?

With the time and energy to wrestle with them, wouldn't it be nice for her to do more of something truly meaningful?

Whether it is to develop national strength or improve the status of women, these are not things that she can accomplish alone in her lifetime.

Instead of fighting alone and being a holy warrior who hates all the ministers, why doesn't she devote herself to developing her girls' school, planting a seed, awakening the independent consciousness of women all over the world, and making more her natural allies? Stand up?

After understanding this account, Ye Anlan will naturally be less obsessed with her personal status.

By the way, she also gave Xie Yuan the idea that all the dignitaries in the court should only be given salaries and not fiefdoms.

Early before she brought others from the Ye family to join the Xie family, she had already brainwashed Xie Yuan.

She used the examples of those dynasties, including Da Zhou, that had no fewer princes and grandchildren, and told him not to learn from those self-inflicted dynasties and give themselves a lot of states within states.

After Xie Yuan listened to her thoughts, he would study history books carefully in his spare time, and then he discovered that there have indeed been decrees issued by the central government in all dynasties that were completely ignored or perfunctory by the local governments.

And those states and counties that have the courage to do so are probably what Ye Anlan calls "a country within a country".

Because the power of governance is in the hands of Wang Gongxungui, they will not be obedient if they want to be disobedient, and they will not implement it if they want to. The court has nothing to do with them.

However, compared to the previous dynasties that not only allowed princes and nobles to manage their fiefs, but even allowed princes and nobles to raise private soldiers in their own fiefs, the former dynasty that banned their privileges has a lot less intention to sit on the dragon chair by itself The prince is honorable.

But because of this, Xie Yuan strengthened his determination to adopt Ye Anlan's suggestion.

The Great Zhou Dynasty banned their privilege of raising private soldiers, and then they had no capital to rebel.

Then if he abolishes their own privilege of governing the fiefdom, will they no longer be able to sing against the court according to their own temperament?

The most important thing is that in this way, he doesn't even need to secretly plant eyeliners to monitor them, in case they secretly raise private soldiers in their fief and prepare to rebel.

After all, with Xie Yuan doing this, those princes and nobles immediately lost their fiefs. Without their fiefs, how can they still slap their thighs and raise private soldiers on the kang of their own palace?

Xie Yuan is happy that the major troubles that may be faced in the future have been eliminated from the root cause. Others who were still counting on having a fief, such as Zhao Zongrong, like Xie Yuan's uncles and cousins, are full of bitterness. Sued.

Of course, their opinions are not very important to Xie Yuan.

Without further ado, he directly decided not to grant land to princes and nobles, and no one could object or question him. Then he used the good method he came up with, and under the persuasion of Wu Ting and others, he helped Ye Anlan realize her separation. Hidden targets that give credit to others.

The day's farce was over, and after Wu Ting and the others left the palace full of secret joy, Xie Yuan did what they wished, and made Ye Anlan a first-class British duke, a hereditary title.

At the same time, he also gave Ye Anlan the title of Prince Taifu, and asked her to be the prince's teacher from the date of decree.

After the imperial decree, the court was in an uproar.

First of all, in the Great Zhou Dynasty of the previous dynasty, the titles of the three lords, the three orphans, the three masters and the three young masters were all just empty titles. The so-called prince and Taifu would not really take on the responsibility of teaching the prince, but Xie Yuan clearly pointed out in the imperial decree that Ye Anlan will Take up the responsibility of teaching the prince.

Being a teacher for a day and being a teacher for life is the future emperor's teacher. What kind of reliance and trust is this!

Secondly, the emperor actually pointed Ye Anlan, who was almost crowned king, to the prince as his teacher. This clearly meant to support the prince!

Looking at it this way, His Royal Highness, the crown prince of their Daqi, is as stable as Mount Tai.

Then they still plan to send women into the palace? Is their idea of ​​turning a bicycle into a motorcycle completely impossible to realize?

Those guys who are full of their own interests think all about the court and their own personal gains and losses, while those who care about Ye Anlan are immediately disappointed with the result of her award.

Prudent people like Pei Huaiyu, Zhou Mingzhe, and Shi Rong, although they felt wronged for Ye Anlan in their hearts, they thought too much, so they didn't kill Ye Anlan's temporary house immediately.

As for Zheng Fengshou, Yang Xiaotao, and Su Xiaohe, who are more reckless, they rushed to Ye Anlan's temporary residence as soon as the content of the imperial decree was spread.

They came over aggressively, but what they saw was a smiling Ye Anlan who obviously didn't feel that she had been treated badly.

Instead, the Ye family members sitting around Ye Anlan all had red, swollen eyes and tears.

"Sister?"

"It's Fengshou, why are you here?" Ye Anlan smiled and greeted Zheng Fengshou and others who had already rushed into the Ye Mansion without waiting for anyone to report, "Don't stand around stupidly, come and sit down."

Yang Xiaotao was the first to trot to Ye Anlan's side, "Girl, you, are you alright?"

Ye Anlan was taken aback, "What can I do?"

"It's about the award."

Ye Anlan suddenly realized, "You said that!"

She reminded Yang Xiaotao rather speechlessly, "Have you forgotten what I told you before?"

Others are fine, but Yang Xiaotao knows that she intends to share part of the credit with others, so why is she in a hurry with Zheng Fengshou and others?
