Although the pseudo-Han court had moved away, there were still many unstable factors in the land of Jiangnan. Who knows if anyone would take this opportunity to occupy the mountain and become king, so they must leave troops to garrison.

After thinking about it, Cao Ang decided to keep Lu Xun, and he led 50,000 reserve recruits to guard Jiangdong and assist Pang Tong in handling government affairs. However, elite troops such as Zhang Liao and Hao Zhao were transferred back to the capital. First, to avoid the situation of leaving too many troops in the local area to cause a strong branch and weak trunk. Second, these elite soldiers fought for too long and should go home to enjoy the peace and prosperity.

When the war is over, there is no need to hurry back. After passing the Yangtze River, the army began to sway slowly, enjoying the scenery along the way while walking.

Although the army walked slowly, the news of victory was transmitted back to Chang'an City as quickly as possible and quickly published it on the newspaper to announce the world.

The aristocratic families who saw the news were confused. The land of Jiangnan was very rich and wealthy. Now that the original owner has withdrawn, the Cao royal family alone cannot swallow this piece of fat. They must share it with the aristocratic families. The aristocratic families can just send individuals to grab land. Not to mention anything else, the tea trees and tea mountains left by the pseudo-Han can make a bunch of people fat.

After more than 20 years of development, tea has become a must-have drink in daily life. The tea from the Dawei Dynasty is imported from the pseudo-Han, which is equivalent to seven inches in the hands of others. Since the Southern Expedition, the pseudo-Han has been busy with migration, and the export volume has dropped sharply. Many families in the Dawei Dynasty have sold out tea storage. The same is true on the market. The price of tea has increased tenfold and is still priceless. Whoever has been snatching a tea mountain now will definitely be difficult to count the money and want to pay.

There are also silks from Jiangdong, and there are silks in the Central Plains, but due to climate and geography and other reasons, the flavor cannot be created at all. The porcelain in Poyang County (Jingdezhen) of Yuzhang County is even more unique. These are all transactions that can be made money by taking over. Who is not jealous?

Not to mention the large number of grain fields in Jiangnan, the hybrid rice studied by Wei Kuan has matured. In Jiangnan, the families who have experienced the Yellow Turban riots have obsession with food. Who doesn’t want such fertile fields?

The problem is that no matter how big the aristocratic family is, the population is limited. In this era, the traffic information is not smooth. Sending people to Jiangnan is equivalent to splitting up. People are selfish. After they gain a foothold in Jiangnan, will they still obey the orders of this sect? One or two generations may be possible, but what about three generations?

If the family is really separated, the family will definitely experience a period of weakness. According to Cao Ang's nature, if he does not take advantage of this period of time to formulate a bunch of policies that are unfavorable to the Great Wei, his word Cao can be written in reverse.

There is a conflict between immediate interests and long-term interests, and it is really embarrassing to make a decision.

The entanglement is only temporary. Friends and relatives gather together to discuss and decide whether to divide it.

It’s not that they are so wise, but that they know that even if they don’t separate their families, they can’t beat Cao Ang’s bastard. Now that the pseudo-Han retreats, the Cao family’s father and son return with their victorious army, and their majesty is unparalleled. Who dares to speak about the west when he says?

Since he is destined to surrender to Cao Ang's tyranny, why are he struggling? Isn't he good to admit defeat and take the opportunity to get some benefits?

The execution ability of the aristocratic families has always been relatively strong. If they make decisions, they will take action immediately. Then the threshold of the Taifu Dong Zhao and the Minister of Revenue Wang Lang's family was trampled. It is the responsibility of the Ministry of Revenue to measure land registration and household registration. If they don't look for anyone.

However, before Cao Ang came back to give clear instructions, Dong Zhao and Wang Lang did not dare to make random promises. They just comforted them with kind words and asked them to go home to prepare first, and then talk about it after His Majesty returned to Beijing to discuss the plan.

The aristocratic family was not unreasonable, and they stopped bothering each other after hearing this. While stepping up preparations, they waited patiently for Cao Ang to come back.

It can be foreseen that in the near future, the Great Wei court and the aristocratic families will hold a feast to divide the south of the Yangtze River, and there will be no worries about food and drink for several generations.

Everyone was waiting, but Cao Ang wandered on the road as if nothing had happened for more than half a month before returning. On the day of his return to Beijing, the Grand Governor Xiahou Dun and Grand Tutor Dong Zhao led all the civil and military officials in Beijing to welcome him, and held a grand welcome ceremony for Cao Ang and the Triumph soldiers.

After the ceremony, Cao Ang summoned Xiahou Dun and Cao Ren, Dong Zhao, Xun You and Zhong Yao to the study to discuss secretly until midnight, and another grand court meeting was held in the morning.

Cao Ang was too lazy. After ascending the throne, he postponed the grand dynasty meeting that was originally held every half month to once a month. Except for big bosses such as Dong Zhao, ordinary officials usually don’t see others at all. However, today, the grand dynasty meeting was held just after returning to Beijing, which was a bit unfair. Although the content of the court discussion was not mentioned, it was not difficult to guess. The army was reunited in the world, and rewards on merits and practices naturally had to be put on the agenda. Jiangnan had so many positions. If nothing unexpected happens, many people would have to upgrade to a few levels.

If you are not active in promotion, you have a problem with your brain. All the officials in Beijing got up early and rushed to the palace gate before dawn to wait. They gathered together and whispered, and their words were filled with joy.

Finally, the time passed, the bell rang and the palace door opened. The officials lined up in order and walked into the Weiyang Palace in an orderly manner. After waiting for a long time, Cao Ang and Cao Cao walked out surrounded by eunuchs and maids.

Today, Cao Ang wore a crown and a crown on his head. He was dressed neatly, and his face was hidden under the beads. His majestic and mysterious appearance made people dare not look directly at him.

Cao Ang came to the dragon chaise and waited for Cao Cao to sit on the chair next to him before sitting down.

Seeing this, all the officials quickly bowed and bowed to him and said, "I will bow to Your Majesty, long live my emperor, long live my respects, and I will pay homage to the Supreme Emperor..." "The family members of you are exempt from the rituals."

Cao Ang raised his hands and invited everyone up, nodded to Cao Cao before he stood up and said, "The Supreme Emperor has finally destroyed the world and unified the world after more than 30 years of war. From then on, China will have no war, and the people can live and work in peace. I believe that under the rule of the court, the Great Wei will definitely surpass the former Han Dynasty and lead the Han people to greater glory."

"Of course, the great Wei Dynasty is inseparable from the dedicated assistance of all my beloved ministers. Everyone in the unified hall of the world has made contributions, so the court decided to reward merits."

"Your Majesty is wise."

All the officials were collectively excited and waited for too long and finally waited until today.

Cao Ang raised his hand and stopped the noise and continued, "Rewarding is fair. You cannot be nepotist, and you cannot be disappointed in the hearts of the meritorious soldiers. Therefore, before rewarding, the system is set first. I discussed with the Supreme Emperor Dong Taifu and others to decide to change the title system of the Great Wei, and add another duke to the marquis. The titles of the Great Wei are Duke and Marquis, but the duke is of great importance. It is currently tentatively set to be nine. If there are too many, it will be worthless."

The audience was shocked as soon as this said. The duke was not a joke. The highest title of the former Han Dynasty was a marquis. Only two dukes had been released in four hundred years. One was Duke Wang Mang of Anhan, and the other was Duke Cao Cao of Wei. None of these two were not traitors of the Han Dynasty. As for Duke Cao Pi of Lu, Duke Ying and Xun Yu, it was not strictly considered, after all, it was far away in Caozhou.

It is surprising that Cao Ang actually wants to legalize the Duke now.

All officials looked at me, I looked at you, and then looked at Dong Zhao and others who were sitting firmly on Diaoyutai. They immediately realized that the big guys already knew and agreed. It was meaningless for others to support and oppose it, so they were too lazy to talk.

Since things cannot be violated, the officials began to wonder again which nine lucky ones could win this honor.
