Since the founding of the Zhou Dynasty, except for Taizong, who generously awarded a number of titles to the founding heroes, few people have been knighted except for capable ministers and generals. Therefore, Cui Weizhen was knighted at a young age, which really shocked many people.
How could Cui Weizhen be knighted?
Someone gave the answer - Cui Weizhen was born in the Cui family of the Qing Dynasty. He had a prominent life experience. He was also the former minister of the Ministry of Rites and the son of Cui Shichang, the crown prince. He was in the heart of the emperor and was highly favored by the saints. Not only was he famous for his talents, he also created "Xumi"
He was an able minister and official in the "painting" school, and he single-handedly planned and established Yunshan academies in various places, attracting the loyalty of scholars all over the world for the emperor; in addition, he directly contributed to and accelerated the division and weakening of major aristocratic families, and solved the problem of the imperial court.
After many years of heartache, it is not impossible for Long Xin to be promoted to a noble position under Long Xin's great joy.
The above achievements are indeed extraordinary, especially since he was still young, which makes them even more rare. However, many capable ministers and officials in the Zhou Dynasty also had meritorious services that were not inferior to his. However, they were not knighted, but were awarded by the young Cui Weizhen.
.
Many people were dissatisfied and felt that Cui Weizhen was not worthy of his position. Only a few important ministers who knew the emperor's heart well realized that Emperor Xuanwu would make big moves next, and Cui Weizhen, who had just been knighted, would be his biggest reliance.
What is the emperor's plan?
No one is more familiar with this than Cui Weizhen. Previously, the return of exiles and the division of aristocratic families were just appetizers. The next step was to settle the family into a family.
In order to promote the reform of apportionment of people into acres, Cui Weizhen did not know how much energy and time he invested in the early stage. Just checking local taxes, household registrations and fields was a big project. Of course, now that the refugees have returned to their hometowns, the data has changed, and it will definitely be necessary in the future.
Adjusting the data again will be the focus of his next work - conducting a comprehensive census of the population and cultivated land.
Only with accurate data can we be more targeted when promoting the reform of apportionment of people into acres in the future.
Of course, these are important affairs of the government and should not be discussed too much. Cui Weizhen accepted the congratulations from relatives and friends modestly and only briefly mentioned them to his family.
After hearing this, Aunt Cui finally calmed down, because her husband was in love with the current emperor and his ministers, and she was full of thoughts of being loyal to the emperor and serving the country. Aunt Cui was also affected to some extent, so she told her son: "Your Majesty treats your father and you well.
With the gift of knowledge and encounter, my son must not let down the high hopes of the Holy One."
"Mother, please rest assured that your son will not disappoint the Holy Father and his late father."
Cui Weizhen was unprecedentedly cautious and serious, and Ye Zhenzhen was filled with emotion, "You treat me as a countryman, and I will repay you as a countryman." Throughout the dynasties, the relationship between kings and ministers has always been a good story, which shows that scholars all over the world cherish a wise king.
Even Cui Weizhen, who has always been shrewd and sinister, is not immune to the desires and expectations.
What's more, Emperor Xuanwu also treated him with special favor and favor, which can be seen from the earl title he was conferred.
Jing Ningbo.
The titles of the Great Zhou Dynasty are divided into nine levels. Each level of title can enjoy a food town, and the county magistrate can enjoy a food town of 700 households. However, this dynasty generally does not grant real titles, but the real benefits will not be less.
In addition, the county Bo was granted a thousand acres of Yongye field, and the land was in Jingning County. Jingning is a small county near the capital, with beautiful mountains and rivers and outstanding people. It only takes a day's journey by horseback.
This place is also the cemetery chosen by Cui Weizhen for his late father Cui Shichang, and will also be the burial place of his Cui clan in the future.
With the family tomb, it has a foundation, and among outsiders, it has a name to distinguish it from the Cui family of Qing Dynasty - Jingning Cui family.
