Nine Pins Immortal Road

Chapter 443 The Advantages and Disadvantages of the Nine-Rank Zhongzheng System

Seeing the "five-color lotus" swallowing the "fire tripod" in the hall gradually blooming, the flowers bloomed in full bloom.

Daoist Wang Changqiu's eyes were filled with red light, and he looked carefully at the blooming 'five-color lotus', and a look of surprise gradually appeared on his face.

Finally, when the blooming 'five-color lotus' gradually dissipated.

Wang Changqiu looked at Liang Zhaohuang in a blink of an eye, the smile on his face had faded a little, and turned a little more solemn, and said: "Zhaohuang, what you formed is a top-grade golden elixir!"

Liang Zhaohuang nodded slightly, and said with a light smile, "It's a fluke."

"Young people are awesome!" Wang Changqiu shook his head slightly and exclaimed.

Immediately, he changed the subject and asked, "Zhao Huang, now you have advanced to the Golden Core Realm, but I don't know how you and your Liang family are going to go in the future?"

When Liang Zhaohuang heard the words, his heart moved slightly, and he bowed to the other party, saying: "The days of my practice are short, and there is not much time for the rise of the Liang family. I don't know much about the road of the prefect."

"If Senior has any advice, Zhao Huang would be very grateful."

Wang Changqiu nodded slightly when he heard the words, and said: "Since we have discussed Taoism, this official business is over, and then we can discuss private affairs."

He said, looked at Liang Zhaohuang and said, "Privately speaking, Chunlin's son is called Junhui, call me uncle."

When Liang Zhaohuang heard the words, he immediately understood, bowed again, and said: "Then I will be like cousin Junhui, and call senior uncle."

"Haha... good!" Wang Changqiu let out a long laugh when he heard the words, and said, "Since we are all in the same family, I will ask you to share some experience with you."

"Do you know how many counties there are in Luyang County?"

"Thirteen families!" Liang Zhaohuang replied very clearly.

"That's right!" Wang Changqiu nodded, and asked again: "Then, do you know that these thirteen prefects have their own ranks?"

Liang Zhaohuang pondered slightly, and then said: "Among them, there are two rank-[-] counties, four rank-[-] ranks, and seven rank-[-] ranks."

"En!" Wang Changqiu nodded again, and then said: "Where do you know that the ranks of the thirteen prefects have not changed for many years?"

"This..." Liang Zhaohuang was a little dazed for a moment. Although he knew the general situation of the prefects in Luyang County, he was still not clear about the details.

"Heh..." Wang Changqiu chuckled lightly, shook his head and said, "My Dajin Immortal Dynasty also established a country under the nine-rank Zhongzheng system, and the establishment of the Immortal Dynasty is so prosperous."

"However, the nine-rank Zhongzheng system has both advantages and disadvantages."

"Let's not talk about it, my Dajin Immortal Dynasty is now prosperous, and it can be said that most of it is because of the 'Nine Rank Zhongzheng System'!"

As Wang Changqiu spoke, he turned the subject and said:

"Let's talk about the disadvantages. In our Great Jin Immortal Dynasty, many powerful families rely on the 'Nine Rank Zhongzheng System' to unite and share the prosperity of the Great Jin Immortal Dynasty."

"But also because of this, no matter the number or rank of the powerful families in the Xian Dynasty, they often seem to be frozen relatively speaking!"

"Furthermore, the higher you go, the more solidified and difficult it is for the number and rank of the powerful families to break through."

Wang Changqiu shook his head, and said: "After all, although our Great Jin Immortal Dynasty was prosperous in humanity, it also had its limits. Humanity luck, natural resources, treasures, rare spiritual objects, etc., are all numerous."

"And it has already been shared by the existing powerful families."

"Latecomers, if they want to get involved and share the benefits, they will undoubtedly compete with the predecessors, and they will inevitably be suppressed!"

Listening to Wang Changqiu's words, Liang Zhaohuang was both shocked and understood.

The advantages and disadvantages of the Nine Ranks of the Dajin Immortal Dynasty have always been obvious. It is very difficult for a poor family to advance to the county rich family, and it is even more difficult for the county wealthy family to advance to the prefectural family!

Liang Zhaohuang vaguely saw the pros and cons of this.

And the Wang family, as a prefect and clan that has been passed down for thousands of years, how can they not see clearly.

At this time, Wang Changqiu continued: "Taking our Luyang County as an example, about 7000 years ago, when the tripod was established, there were only three county lords in the county at the beginning, and there was still a lot of space and resources for the rise of new county lords. .”

"In the following 7000 years of development, there have been more and more Wang family families in Luyang County, from three to five, to seven, then to ten, and finally to the current thirteen families that are counties!"

"The number of the thirteen prefects can be said to have reached the limit of the number of prefects that can be accommodated in Luyang County."

"Not to mention, the resources and interests in Luyang County are only enough for thirteen counties to share. Even with the rich aura in Luyang County, there are only a limited number of counties and clans that can support them."

As Wang Changqiu said, he shook his head and said, "The development of humanity in Luyang County has not increased for more than 1000 years, but it has declined in recent years."

"If humanity cannot develop, the luck of humanity cannot grow, and there are only a few auras that can be suppressed and refined."

"Humanism has a lot of aura, and the number of monks who can support it is limited. Especially the higher-level monks, the more aura they need!"

"Today's Luyang County, it can be said that it has reached its limit. Not only has the number of the prefects reached the limit, but the rank of the prefects is also difficult to change."

"Four families with four ranks, four families with five ranks, seven families with six ranks!"

"This has been a pattern that has been maintained for more than 800 years, and it is difficult to break."

"After all, if any prefect family is promoted, it will inevitably occupy more humane luck and more interests, and then it needs to be seized from other prefect families. How can other prefect families willing?"

Master Wang Changqiu said, shaking his head and said, "Think of my 'Chi Ding' Wang family, who has stayed above the rank of the Wang family in this sixth-rank county for more than 1000 years, and has not been able to advance half a step up to now!"

Liang Zhaohuang was dumbfounded as he listened, although he had expected that the higher the family was promoted, the more difficult it would be and the narrower the space would be.

However, he never expected that the situation would be so difficult!
"So..." Liang Zhaohuang was a little helpless, and said in a deep voice, "In Luyang County, there is no room for our Liang family to intervene?"

Wang Changqiu nodded slightly, then shook his head again, and said: "According to the 'Nine-Rank Zhongzheng System' system of my Great Jin Immortal Dynasty, since you have advanced to the Golden Core Realm, there is naturally a place for your Liang family in Luyang County."

"It's just that if your Liang family wants to gain a foothold in Luyang County, it will be very difficult."

"It's like the 'Black Thorn' Lin family, who took advantage of the opportunity when the Qian family escaped from Liangzhou, seized the opportunity, and advanced to the prefect of the county in one fell swoop, replacing the Qian family's position, and entered Luyang County."

"But even now, the Lin family is just struggling to survive in Luyang County."

"Back when the Qian family fled, most of the interests and property they left behind in the county were swallowed up by the various counties in the county."

"Although the Lin family replaced the Qian family and became the No. 13 family in the county, they failed to take over the benefits left by the Qian family."

"The Lin family wants to rely on the interests of Lingmi and Lingzhi to gain a foothold, but they are also facing constant pressure from the 'Huangliang' Du family."

"So up to now, the 'Black Thorn' Lin family barely has the rank and reputation of the Wang family in the sixth-rank county, but they don't have the interests and foundations to support the survival and development of the Wang family in the sixth-rank county."
