After rebirth, I tortured the scum and strived to become the empress

Chapter 27 Linjiang County Duke
How could the always stingy Emperor Shao Wu be so generous?

Isn't it because at today's court, Xiao Boya presented to Emperor Shao Wu a shipyard capable of building five-toothed ships in front of the ministers of civil and military affairs.

Together with more than 3 skilled craftsmen and sailors and more than 300 high-quality shade-dried wood materials.

One material is a unit of measurement, and one material refers to the wood needed to build a ship.

The Xiao family sent people, land and materials, which meant that as long as the Wei Dynasty took over this shipyard, it could immediately build more than 300 warships.

For Wei, the value of this shipyard can no longer be simply calculated in gold and silver, and its military value is even greater.

It can only be said that the Xiao family is worthy of being the leader of the gentry in the south of the Yangtze River, and their handwriting is great!

And this gift was indeed sent to Ersheng's heart.

Why?Da Wei Que Shipyard!

Because Nan Chen's warships were all purchased from local nobles and did not produce them themselves. This resulted in that even if Chen was destroyed and Nan Chen's warships were confiscated, there would still be few shipyards.

There are no shipyards, only warships, just like a hen that only has eggs but no laying eggs. Sooner or later, warships will be damaged and aging.

As for the shipyard in the hands of the aristocratic family, the emperor could not make it stronger.

When Emperor Shao Wu destroyed the Chen Kingdom, he suffered enough from a weak navy and not many warships.

Great Wei strengthened the infantry, and Southern Chen strengthened the navy.

The most important thing in the battle between Wei and Chen is to cross the river. After all, a big river separates the north and the south, and if the river is not crossed, the battle cannot be fought.

The Wei Dynasty had launched three national wars against Nanchen. The first two times failed, because they could not break through the blockade of Nanchen's navy and could not cross the river.

Trying to build a pontoon bridge, but the river is wide and the water is fast, and no one in history has successfully built a pontoon bridge on the river to cross the river.

Then the navy of the Northern Wei Dynasty couldn't defeat the general, so how could it still destroy Chen?
This is due to a poor family official named Xu Deshui in Nanchen.

He is still a small official in his late years, but unlike others who give up on themselves, he has been going to the riverside to observe hydrology whenever he has time for decades.

Huangtian paid off, and he finally found a place and time where he could build a pontoon bridge to cross the river.

He immediately left Nanchen and came to the Wei Dynasty, hoping to dedicate it to Emperor Shao Wu in order to gain promotion.

When he arrived at Yujing City, he discovered that although the Wei Dynasty was not as powerful as Nan Chen Ka De, it was still impossible for a mere petty official to meet the emperor.

However, he still did not give up. After asking around hard, he heard that General Shen, now the Duke of Liang, Shen Pingnan, was also born in a poor family. He liked to receive and promote scholars from poor families, so he went to visit.

It was also his chance that General Shen met him and believed what he said, and was willing to recommend him to Emperor Shao Wu.

As a result, Emperor Shao Wu also believed in him and launched a battle to destroy Chen, bypassing the powerful Nanchen Navy, successfully crossing the river, and unifying the north and the south.

After the extermination of Chen, Xu Deshui was granted the title of Marquis of Pingdu by Emperor Shaowu, and the title of Marquis of County, not only because there was a county called Pingdu County not far from Wei Jun crossing the river, but also to reward his achievements with this title.

After being named Marquis, Xu Deshui changed his name to Xu Deshui, and now he is the left servant of the Ministry of Industry.

Because of the recommendation, Shen Pingnan also stood out among the generals who asked to fight, and led the left army to attack Chen.

Of course, Emperor Shao Wu used him because of the auspicious name to please him.

"Pingnan", what a good omen, so Shen Pingnan became the commander-in-chief of the first army without any dispute, and was named Liang Guogong after the war.

From this point of view, Xiao Han did not hate the wrong person when he hated the Shen family and Shen Qingjun. Shen Pingnan can be said to be the number one hero in destroying Chen!

Then why is Xiao Boya so angry at Xiao Han being named Duke of Linjiang County?
Because it represents identity recognition.

On behalf of the Xiao family, Xiao Boya sent such a great gift to Emperor Shao Wu, which was to declare to the emperor and ministers of the Great Wei that Xiao Boya was the next generation speaker of the Xiao family in Jiangnan.

Emperor Shao Wu named Xiao Boya the Duke of Linjiang County, which means that I know the Xiao family's intentions and recognize you as the next generation heir of the Xiao family.

Because the capital of Huaiyang County where the Xiao family is located is Linjiang City, the title of the head of the Xiao family is Huaiyang County Duke, and the next generation of heirs will generally be given the title of Linjiang County Duke.

Why was Shen Qingjun ordered to marry Xiao Han? Because in Nanchen, Xiao Han's title was Linjiang County Duke. Of course, this title was conferred by Emperor Chen Mo, and the Wei Dynasty could not recognize it.

So Emperor Shao Wu was stingy, after he destroyed Chen Guo, he didn't recognize Chen Guo's title at all, and wanted to regain his title?all right!

It all depends on your performance!So the major families in the south of the Yangtze River offered their "hearts" one after another.

Those who meet Emperor Shao Wu's psychological expectations will be given titles. Of course, except for a few people, this title is no different from that of Nan Chen.

It was not because Emperor Shaowu decreed to re-seat him because he was full and had nothing to do. The most important thing to do in this way was to assign a name, which is also called one emperor and one courtier!

When a dynasty changes, when a new emperor ascends the throne, the emperor will change his ministers' titles or place names, etc. Don't be too common!It's just that other emperors don't need their ministers to express their "feelings".

When Xiao Han came to Yujing City, Emperor Shao Wu originally planned to make him Duke of Linjiang, but Xiao Han came empty-handed. Emperor Shao Wu thought it was a signal that the Xiao family was still unwilling to give in!
In a fit of anger, a man with the title of Zhangling County Prince dismissed Xiao Han.

The title of the Wei Dynasty includes ten levels: prince, county king, duke, county duke, county marquis, county marquis, county uncle, county uncle, county son, and country boy.

The king only granted titles to the prince's clan, and the highest title for his ministers was that of Duke of the State.

In addition, the titles of the Great Wei are all sealed, with the title of the place, there is a food town, and there is a closed household. Although taxes have to be paid to the court, the taxes are fixed, and the rest is their own.

The county prince and the county son not only represent a huge loss of profits, but are also five levels behind Xiao Boya. It would be strange if Xiao Han was not angry to death.

Then Linfeng added:
"Also, when the imperial court was dispersed today, the Marquis of Pingdu County, the left servant of the Ministry of Industry, sent someone to the mansion to spread the message, saying:

"There is an urgent matter, and the banquet will be canceled three days later." Linfeng said, glanced at Shen Qingjun, and found that her expression was unchanged before continuing:

"The invitation for the banquet was sent five days ago. My uncle accepted the invitation that day and sent someone to reply." Linfeng continued at a steady pace: "When my uncle came back, I told my uncle the news. "

"Well, there is a reward for winter plums. Linfeng, you go down and ask more." Shen Qingjun pondered,
'House seemingly endless rain! 'Xiao Han is also unlucky!

"Yes," Linfeng resigned, and outside the door, Dongmei handed Linfeng a red envelope.

"Sister Dongmei, this uncle and young lady?"

Dongmei glanced at him, "You are also an old man, just do what the lady told you to do, and don't inquire or care about other things, don't you know this?"
