If the kings' sons were grandsons of the emperor, they were made full marquesses; if not, they were considered commoners. en.wikipedia.org

The 19th and 20th ranks were both marquess ranks, yet only a 20th rank allowed one to have a marquessate fief. en.wikipedia.org

The marquess had no administrative role over his marquessate; he merely collected a portion of the tax revenues. en.wikipedia.org
