| When the Ritsuryo codes were abolished in the Meiji Restoration, the court rank system continued in Daijokan (Grand Council of State) for a while. (Shokyui [Senior Ninth Rank] and Jukyui [Junior Ninth Rank] were established instead of Daishosoi [Greater and Lesser Initial Rank] on August 20 1869 according to the old calendar.) |
明治維新により律令法が廃された後も、太政官においては、暫く続けられた（明治2年8月20日 (旧暦)に大少初位の代わりに正九位・従九位が設けられている）。 |
