Chapter 1707 Dame Liang
"Doesn't this show Mrs. Qi's courage even more?"
Shen Tai bowed slightly with his hands folded on his abdomen, and a strong sense of appreciation could be heard in his words.
Shen Tai is not a stickler for rules, otherwise he would not advise on the enfeoffment strategy. He also appreciates people who have the courage to break the constraints.
This is what Mrs. Qi is like!
As a woman, she must be the first person to have the courage to compete for the title!
Zhu Zhen asked: "What do you mean?"
"Your Majesty is planning to implement the policy of enfeoffment. The reason why it is not as expected now is because of too many concerns. If Your Majesty grants the title to the Qi family, it will show your Majesty's true intentions to the world."
"Even women can be granted titles, let alone others?"
Shen Tai bowed and said: "Take wood as a model, bamboo as a model, earth as a model... Now we must set Qi as a model."
"What's more, wouldn't His Majesty covet Mrs. Qi's well-run business and huge wealth? Now she belongs to the imperial court. I think Mrs. Qi's actions are bold and bold, which ordinary men can't compare to. She can manage the Qi family to such an extent, maybe she can also
Being able to run the fiefdom..."
Zhu Zhen nodded noncommittally. If he hadn't known Shen Tai as a person, he would have thought that Shen Tai had an admiration for Mrs. Qi and admired her so much.
But what he said was true.
Shen Tai continued: "What I admire most is Qi's loyalty!"
"For so many years, she has been criticized but still stayed with the Qi family. Her real name has long been forgotten. She fought for the title with the surname Qi just to continue the Yulan family. Shouldn't this be praised?"
"Really?"
Even Zhu Zhen was moved when he heard it.
Fighting for titles and taking the husband's surname is just to continue the Yulan family and to keep the family's glory alive!
Zhu Zhen said: "In the past, Emperor Taizu named the Qi family the Yulan family. Because the direct line was cut off, the succession of titles was interrupted. If the Qi family is interested, I will make her the first baroness of Daliang!"
"No, it should be the first baroness in the mainland!"
"Your Majesty, Holy Might!"
Shen Tai opened his mouth and said: "The more than ten people who came with the Qi family are all capable people. Your Majesty can confer titles together. This policy of enfeoffment is a national policy and will compete with Emperor Daning!"
These words have a heroic meaning.
He proposed the advanced version of the enfeoffment strategy, so he naturally had high expectations.
Zhu Zhen was infected.
Because Shen Tai had something that spoke to his heart, that is, competing with Emperor Daning!
After another three days, the first batch of people who were awarded the title were finally determined. There were thirty-one people in total, and Madam Qi was among them, and she was vying for the title of Marquis!
The highest you can get for a charity donation is a Marquis, but the requirements are also quite high, requiring a huge amount of charity!
Of course, Mrs. Qi must have the financial resources. The advantage is that she does not need to pay anything to the court in the first year, and only starts from the next year.
It's truly unsecured.
However, since those who can be awarded the title have gone through strict review, their reputation and financial resources are naturally matched.
Mrs. Qi's reputation rose from this.
She became Daliang, and even the first baroness in the entire continent!
At the conferment ceremony, Zhu Zhen did not hesitate to praise her with beautiful words. He also bluntly said that Mrs. Qi is an iron lady and the court supports her in forming a women's army!
Zhu Zhen gave military rights to those who were awarded the title.
The imperial court had no money, food, or troops, so it gave power to local nobles. This was a risky approach that might threaten the imperial rule.
However, the places to be sent are all in places where people's livelihoods are in ruins due to war, and it's unclear whether they can develop...
Zhu Zhen hoped that they could become the nobles of one side of the separatist regime, but he was afraid that they simply couldn't do it!
In full view of everyone, Zhu Zhen praised Mrs. Qi so much that he was truly gracious.
Queen Daning played matchmaker for the left-behind women of the Liang Kingdom everywhere, and she was extremely popular for this reason.
Zhu Zhen planned to make Mrs. Qi into such a character.
It is true that there is a shortage of young people in Daliang, but there is no shortage of women. Women must be put to use!
Zhu Zhen had this intention in conferring the title of Madam Qi...
At the conferment ceremony, Mrs. Qi was dazzling, and there were more than ten people who were also conferred the title after her.
Perhaps this is where her charm lies.
She was once criticized, but now she is praised, because she took her husband's surname and returned the Qi family to the nobility...
She is loyal, whether to her husband's family or her country!
During the conferment ceremony, she knelt on the ground and said bluntly that she was willing to sacrifice her life for Liang Guo!
At the same time, not only titles are awarded, but also fiefs!
The fiefdoms of those who were granted the title were all in Yi'an Province, but they were closer to the southwest rather than bordering Liaoqing Province.
Zhu Zhen didn't say anything about the loss of Liaoqing Province, but he was actually very angry in his heart.
He has been suppressing the news. If there is news that the Tianxing Army was ordered to retreat by Emperor Daning with one word or forced to retreat with one arrow, it will seriously affect the morale of the people.
He was not going to let Yi'an Province anymore, and planned to place these noble fiefs on the border of Yi'an Province and Nanyu Province.
The province of Nanyu already belongs to the center of Liang Kingdom, and we must not let it go again...
At that time, the imperial army and the feudal nobles all mobilized to resist Daning.
This is a suitable position that will neither be directly occupied by Daning nor is it particularly comfortable.
Zhu Zhen thought carefully.
It was impossible for him to give these newly created nobles to Emperor Daning...
After the conferment, Zhu Zhen also held a dinner party, which was enjoyable and full of joy.
Only Han Chong was worried.
Your Majesty has given these people an opportunity to transfer wealth in an open and honest manner!
