The Mingtian system,promulgated by Emperor Han Ai in the second year of Suihe,was a specific national land decree system in the form of imperial edicts.The content of the Mingtian system consisted of three levels.Although the maximum land allocation under the Mingtian system was 30 hectares,it still reflected the spirit and principle of adjusting allocations according to the specific circumstances of different groups of people,which is akin to the"Mingtian House system"in the Shang Yang Reforms and early Han Dynasty.In terms of institutional nature,the Mingtian system is not a land system implying ownership,but rather a system of land regulation.It is unnecessary to delve deeply into the perspective of land ownership in terms of its form and nature.
