Love Like The Galaxy.

Chapter 123

It was too early to come out of Ling Mansion, and it was freezing cold outside, so don't wander around. Shaoshang suggested that the two of them go to Xinghua Courtyard for a meal.

"Ali's craftsmanship is excellent. Originally, my mother Fu was not convinced. Last time, I brought Ai's dried meat home, and my mother didn't speak any more! There was a time when my mother casually said that she used to manage the housework, Later, after your parents got divorced, she started to learn how to cook in order to take care of Hoff talents, which is really a talent!"

Ling Budo paused and whispered, "After my father and mother broke up, a lot of things changed."

The less businessman was silent. The biggest change is probably Ling Budo's life.

"This winter is very cold, and I don't know when the cold will pass. Whether it's your mother or your grandmother, I've been ill these days. I've been feeling chills and anorexia all day long. Cough, oops, I'm so worried! Well, there is only our family's daughter Xiao, who is called a tiger who is full of energy. He just beat the third brother two days ago, saying that he excused Uncle Wan to serve the disease and hide. Willing to study. Hmph, Uncle Wan has the eldest brother and the second brother beside him, what is the matter with the third brother? It's his luck! His mother didn't burn his tortoise shell, it's his luck!"

Ling Budo laughed loudly: "Prefect Wan's Is the injury still healed? I thought he would go back to Xu County immediately."

"It's almost good morning, he wants to wait for Grandpa to come back to meet." Shaoshang said, "Actually, Uncle Wan is taking advantage of illness to avoid trouble. The instigator, my mother is very angry with him, but she can't kill tens of thousands of families to beat him, so she can only beat the three brothers."

Ling Budo loves to listen to Shaoshang's family affairs, which can always make people feel warm and soft. . He said softly: "When Prefect Wan returns to Xu County, please invite some brothers and Mrs. Wan to paint the hot springs in the other courtyard in the mountains. It was thrilling a while ago, and everyone was frightened and tired. Now you can play and play.

" Shang nodded: "Others are okay, I don't know if Aunt Qiqi can come out. Aunt Wan also returned to the capital a few days ago. Isn't she a good friend of Madam Yin? Seeing that Auntie Qi'e is now learning the kindness, goodness and kindness. She was orderly and scolded the elder sister Eqi that night, and then held the pillow and cried bitterly. She said that in the future, the two sisters will inevitably be compared, and elder sister Eqi is so hot and hot that she has no ladylike appearance. I've been compared to Mount Yanzhi! ... Now, Aunt Qiqi is being held by Aunt Yin to learn how to be a bride."

Ling Budo smiled slowly and said: "You are also hot and hot, you are also not a lady, and the Yuchang County Master is also a virtuous person who is famous in the capital. By then, you will not only be compared to Yanzhi Mountain, but you may have to go to Da Yuezhi. Shao Shang was furious: "

The county lord is so good, why don't you marry her?!"

Ling Budo smiled and said, "Because I don't like virtuous women. I just like women who think wildly, act nonsense, and eat Haisai... "..."

Shao Shang smiled and rushed over to beat him: "Who's eating nonsense?! I think you're just talking nonsense, messing around, making up nonsense... Now tell me what other words are there, I don't think so. Come out!" The

two were wrestling and fighting in the car, so when it was cold, the carriage was tightly sealed, and the Liang Qiu brothers, who were riding on horses outside, didn't know what was going on inside, but only noticed that the body vibrated and the wheels wobbly.

Liang Qiufei didn't know what to think, and suddenly blushed: "This is outside, the young master can't...?"

"No." Liang Qiuqi's face was as usual, "The young master and the little lady are probably just playing around. "

How do you know that, brother?"

"Because I have four confidantes who will never leave you, and you can even run away with the daughter of the old concierge who admired you."

Liang Qiufei: ...

at Xinghua Courtyard , Cui Hou and his son were not surprised by the three of them.

Huo Junhua was seriously ill this time. He just took the medicine and fell asleep. Only at this time can Ling Budo sit beside the couch without interference and stare at his biological mother quietly for a while.

Huo Junhua is not young anymore, even if she usually speaks and acts like a delicate little girl, but the years and the separation of life and death still leave traces of suffering and sadness on her face.

It was said that Ling Budo was like his father Ling Yi, but Shao Shang felt that Ling Budo was actually more like Huo Junhua, with the same eyebrows that flew into the temples, the same stubborn and tall nose, especially the stubborn white jaw, which was like a mold. engraved.

This kind of appearance is just right on Ling Budo's face, but on a woman, it is more rigid than soft and lacking in beauty, so that Huo Junhua's beauty always has a domineering connotation. Concubine Yue is much better, her character is more snarky, but she is charming and graceful - Shao Shang understands the emperor's uncle's choice very well.

Ling Budo looked down at his biological mother for a while, and then walked out of the dormitory gently. The second son of the Cui family dragged him one by one to the outside courtyard to discuss and play, while Shao Shang and Cui Hou sat under the porch to watch them.

Shao Shang saw that Cui Hou frowned, and asked tentatively: "Is the Hof people seriously ill this time? I heard that this is the old problem of the wife's winter every year."

Cui Hou said: "It is the old problem, But now that Junhua is old, he is no better than he was when he was young and strong. I heard that you came to see Junhua every three days and two times before. My dear, it was really hard for you. But you also saw it, This time, Junhua was more drowsy than ever, and he couldn't take the soup and medicine. The doctor said, saying..."

"The foundation of the Hof people has actually been hollowed out, and these years have only depended on delicious food. Drink and boil." Shao Shang said in a low voice, "But I really don't understand. General Huo Chong was pampered in Shihov, and after coming to this Xinghua Courtyard, the rewards from His Majesty and the Empress are endless, what kind of deer tendons and leopard tires? Wild ginseng snow lotus, my wife's support is probably better than that of the princess and the princess. In other words, the real suffering of my wife is the two years of being separated. Only two years of hard work, how can you lose your body so much..."

Cui You remembered the sins suffered by the goddess, and tears almost fell: "When I brought their mother and son back, Junhua was thin and unremarkable, and she was unhappy along the way. I told her that Ling Yi was a dog. After finding a new lover, she regained her spirits! It can be seen that how much she suffers can't be determined by the length of time, it only takes a moment to stab someone with a knife, and it will be fatal immediately!"

Shao Shang felt that he couldn't use this analogy, but he endured and didn't say it. .

"Junhua was born to Aunt Huo early. She was not in good health since she was a child, and sometimes she would go over when she was in a hurry with others. The Huo family worked hard to save her little life! Later, she fought to the death for the thief. Sheng, seeing that the child was sick and crooked, he almost fainted again, but fortunately, the Huo family's sister-in-law gave Zi Sheng the name left to her son. It is strange to say that Zi Sheng has the name of the Huo family Erlang, and his body It's getting better every day..."

Shao Shang laughed: "Uncle Cui is very partial. That is to say, because the people of Hof have been weak since childhood, no one can go against her will, and no one can argue with her. Otherwise, it will be passed away... In the end, he stole the name reserved by his brother and sister-in-law for his son? Then what will General Huo Chong do?"

Cui You remembered the situation at that time, and smiled: "Huo's sister-in-law has a weird hobby. , I like to fight neatly, the three sons and three daughters under my knees are all well-arranged names, they are not sick, not harmful, ignorant, uneven, not Wei, not suspicious... Later, 'Busu' was given to Junhua's son, His youngest son can only be called 'Wu Shang'."

After saying this, he couldn't help but defend the goddess, "Ordinary girls who are so petite and pet-raised might be so grumpy, but Junhua is just hard-mouthed and soft-hearted. When she was young, she saw how thin I was born and thought that my family was poor and could not have enough to eat, so she would bring corn to me from time to time in a small skirt and jacket. Alas, now everyone only remembers the downside of her being unscrupulous, and who knows that she's not bad at heart..."

When he met the true love Lao Cui, who had an 800-meter-thick filter, Shao Shang had nothing to say.

——There is always a reason to be annoying. Saying 'you don't choose your words' is to avoid the important and the light. In fact, Huo Junhua has loved to lie since he was a child, and he will lie every time he is not satisfied. .

Especially after a fight with Concubine Yue, Huo Junhua told no one hundred or eighty lies. Later, he said that Yue Heng from the next county was beautiful, but he had a vicious heart and liked to humiliate servants. Bin, when everyone met the real Yue Heng later, they realized that this was not the case, and Huo Junhua had no lie to tell.

The most dangerous time, Huo Junhua tricked Concubine Yue to go to a place rumored to be frequented by thieves - Shao Shang guessed privately, maybe Huo Junhua didn't really want Concubine Yue's tragic death, just a mindless and willful stupidity mischief.

However, if Huo Chong hadn't been alert and rescued in time, the Huo and Yue families would have become blood feuds immediately.

People are very complicated. For Cui You, Huo Junhua is a little fairy with a knife mouth and a tofu heart. For Concubine Yue, it is time to kill a thousand knives. It was also after this time that the emperor refused to give color to this little sister of the Huo family, who had looked down on her since childhood. In the end, Huo Junhua gave up on the emperor and turned his attention to the handsome young man named Ling who had just moved to the county.

Thinking of this, Shao Shang hurriedly picked out some important things about what he saw and heard in the Ling residence this morning and told Cui You.

Cui You scolded: "Old thief Ling, this dog-killing talent! At the beginning, he only coaxed Jun Hua with his gentleness and smallness. If he is a real sword and a gun, he is not worthy of our shoes! He shrank faster than anyone else when he charged into battle. Now I'm shaking. Shao Shang, let me tell you, not only the Yuchang County Master, but also the three brothers of the Ling family wish they could marry all the famous and distinguished families in the capital, but the hearts of the people are hard to deceive. Come out and ask, if it wasn't for Brother Huo Chong to support him, who would look down on him! But ah..."

He suddenly turned to Shaoshang with a smile, his face with a pointed mouth and monkey cheeks was like a dried eggplant, Shaoshang shivered.

"Don't listen to old thief Ling's words. You should dissuade Zisheng where you should. Don't try your best." Cui You said with a smile.

Shao Shang shouted in dissatisfaction, "Just now you called the Marquis of Chengyang to kill the old man!"

"Isn't it the time when things were at stake? Your Majesty is getting more and more prestige now, and some heroes from all over the world have come to vote, and I am afraid that there will be no one in the court. Can it be used! If there is an emergency to Zisheng, Junhua will still be alive! I will leave this to you. When you leave the cabinet, how much dowry your father and mother will give you, I will give you the same as your uncle. Dude! Be good, be obedient!"

"No! Empress Empress and Uncle Wan have said this, I already have a lot of dowry!" Shao Shang was very proud.

"Silly Niuniu! There is too much dowry! You have to know that when you have money, you will hate less! This is the ancestral teaching passed down by the elders of the uncle's family, and there is nothing wrong!" Cui You patted his thigh and reprimanded, "Your dowry is not good enough. More, what should I do if I can't raise my head when I see the princess's wife in the future?!"

Shao Shang slowly turned his head one by one: "Why can't I raise my head when I saw the chief of Yuchang County?"

Cui You was blunt . : "The girl Hong is proficient at cooking, chess, calligraphy, painting, and cooking. She is well-known for being virtuous and virtuous in the capital city. As for you, I heard from Auntie, so far the seam on clothes is still crooked!"

Shao Shangqi trembled, Struggling to stand up from the floor: "Cui Hou, Uncle Cui, for the sake of your age and virtue, I won't argue with you. But you and I have run out of fate, so let's say goodbye. !" After she finished speaking, she folded her hands and left in a huff.

Only then did Cui You realize that the little girl was annoyed, so he hurriedly stood up to stop him.

...

for fear that Huo Junhua woke up and saw Ling Budo about to have a seizure again, after having lunch for a while, Shaoshang and Ling Budo were going to return to the city, while the Cui family and their son planned to stay in Xinghua Courtyard for two days.

Looking back at the gate of the other courtyard from a distance, he saw that Cui Er didn't know what jokes he told his father and brother, Cui Hou pulled his son into the air and threw it into the air, and then caught the second son with the eldest son laughingly.

Ling Budo looked at his eyes full of smiles, and said casually: "When I was young, my father liked to throw me like this and catch me."

Shao Shang also looked back at Master Cui You and sighed, "Uncle Cui is really helpful. The love is too deep, alas, you said that he and your grandma grew up, when did he know that he liked your grandma."

Ling Budo smiled and shook his head: "About the time, you will naturally know."

Shaoshang pondered for a long time: "My third brother also asked Ban Xiaohou how he knew that he liked a woman. Ban Xiaohou said that his great-grandfather told him that when he met the woman he loved, he would feel lightning and thunder. "When you saw me, did you feel the thunder and lightning?"

Ling Budo thought about it carefully, and said seriously: "What about the night light festival? I don't feel the lightning and thunder, I just feel that you are standing there, surrounded by spring flowers."

Shao Shang's heart is sweet, smiling eyebrows Bend.

Ling Budo said again, "What did you and Uncle Cui say? I just watched him stop you from saying good things and cut you the fattest bacon while eating."

Shaoshang stiffened, so Zuo Wuji's little hand waved: "It's not a big deal. It's just that Uncle Cui has seen me becoming more virtuous and virtuous recently, and he is happy in his heart, so he will reward me greatly!"

- Wuwuwu, the only person in this world who can appreciate her is the Empress. ! These stinky men in the feudal society are short-sighted and rotten and backward in aesthetics!

...

After a few more days, Father Cheng finally returned to the DPRK with General Han.

The most embarrassing thing in this Shouchun war against rebellion is their army. From the beginning to the end, they only got a dozen or so soldiers. It means half attack.

First, Ling Budo's storm-like onslaught frightened the courage of Peng Ni's camp, and then Nanny Cui resorted to a set of "persuade to surrender - alienation" combination boxing, and finally Peng Zhen was tied into a zongzi by his own confidant. thrown out of the city and surrendered.

The emperor is very interesting. Although Father Cheng and General Han returned without merit, they did not have credit or hard work. They still rewarded each other with a lot of money and silk, and the official rank did not move.

The main event is at home.

Father Cheng went directly to Wanfu without removing his armor, and then Comrade Lao Wan met his parents like a child who had been wronged for many days. Holding his adopted brother, he cried bitterly. I ca n't see the virtuous brother, so I 'm better to die ah ah ah ah' ...

Mrs. Xiao looked at her arms and looked at it coldly. The next few juniors happily eat melons—in this situation, if Father Cheng had not fallen in love with Madam Xiao, and Uncle Wan liked to visit the fireworks field of the BG department, Shao Shang would be thinking about it.

Cheng Cha has also grown a lot taller, and her temperament has become more calm and gentle. Since Wan Songbai was impeached, she has often come to Wan's house to help take care of the old lady. In contrast, Wan Qiqi became more and more crane tail-so, starting with complimenting Cheng Cha, Mrs. Xiao and Mrs. Wan started a family affair.

Mrs. Xiao had already chosen a marriage for Cheng Cha, and only a few months later Uncle Cheng returned home from Bailu Mountain to make a decision. In fact, this marriage was very well chosen, and Mrs. Xiao also worked hard. If there was no Ling Budo for comparison, it would even be regarded as Cheng Cha's high ranking. However, with Ling Budo's radiant existence, the sons-in-law of all the capitals are not enough to watch.

Mrs. Wan is quite open to it. Anyway, her twelve husbands-in-law do not have a lineup with Ling Budo. Her wish now is as long as her daughter Qiqi is happy.

After crying for a full meal, Wan Songbai wiped away the snot and tears hanging from his beard, and then drove everyone out, leaving only his dear brother to speak. Mrs. Xiao couldn't bear it any longer, she swung her long sleeves and walked out, and Mrs. Wan followed with a wry smile.

After everyone had cleared away, Wan Songbai said, "This time, I've been in danger for several times, but it was only by virtue of my virtuous brother's good son-in-law that he escaped to heaven! Alas, people who have died a few times will ignore everything. Now, brother, today I want to talk to you about the marriage of Qiqi and Zifu, as well as the inheritance of my family's incense."

Cheng Shi's heart was clear and he sighed, "I've thought about this a long time ago, the two of us. The family is a lifelong friendship, and now it seems that the elder brother can't have a son..."

"Why can't you have a son, it's not your bad idea, let me rebuild some ancestral tomb, and the feng shui is broken..."

"Even if not Repairing ancestral tombs is not bad, Feng Shui righteous brother only has an extra daughter every two years, and my son still doesn't know where he is!"

"It is better to have a daughter than no daughter! Everyone is out there saying that there is something wrong with the idiot brother's body!"

"Nonsense! Who dares to say that the righteous brother, you and I will tear their skin!"

"Even if you roast them alive, they will not be able to stop them from muttering in their hearts! "

"Then what should I do?" Cheng Shi sat down helplessly.

"What else can I do?" Wan Songbai leaned against the hidden sac, "I don't want my son Yuxiong anymore, I can count on my grandson."

Cheng Shi's eyes lit up, "I've thought about this for a long time, and Yuan Yi and I had been together a few years ago. Said, 'Looks like my brother has no children'...Brother, don't interrupt and let me finish! Zifu is the elder brother, you watched him grow up, and you have a good relationship with Qiqi. After they get married in the future, the child will be adopted The elder brother is also fine, and it is fine to directly call Zifu into the marriage..."

Wan Songbai was moved in his heart, stroked the shoulder of his righteous brother, and sighed: "My virtuous brother and I are not flesh and blood. , I also thought about it, but I am afraid that the two of you will feel distressed, and I will also feel distressed! Zifu is such a hearty and happy boy, although I take him as my own son, but my son-in-law will say it will not sound good in the future. He was ridiculed outside, and that's not cutting our own flesh! After thinking about it, my mother and I discussed it. Instead of adopting a step-grandson in the future, it is better to directly adopt a step-son Fu as an heir!"

Cheng Shi didn't respond for a while: "Adoption son Fu? But our two families have no blood relationship at all!" Isn't it common for adoptive children to pick children from the clan?

"Who said no!" Wan Songbai sat up happily, "Look at Your Majesty's Cen Anzhi who adopted his friend's nephew as heir..."

Cheng Shi said helplessly, "First, Cen Neiguan is an eunuch, and his righteous brother and What does he compare to? Second, Cen Neiguan's relatives and family members have been separated in the war, and the rest have gone out of five suits. Third... Third, I can't think of it for the time being. Anyway, this is not right, and the righteous brother will be taken away. Stoke the spine!"

"What the spine!" Wan Songbai snorted coldly, "You know the people of my family, they have already become inseparable with me. Adoption?! Hmph, I dare to adopt, do they dare to send the baby here? Besides, as I said, stepsister Fu is not completely unsure. Over the years, I have held the hand of many elders of the clan, and when the time comes, I will suppress a group and win over a group, and then I will find some virtuous village elders to talk things out, and things will definitely work out. He slapped his thigh, "

I have already sent people back to my hometown to lobby secretly. In short, they told me to agree, I will write off the previous grievances with them, and I will give them more sweetness in the future!"

Cheng Shi thought about it carefully, it seemed... it seemed... it really wasn't impossible.

"Wait a minute! If Zifu becomes your son, then Qiqi and you are siblings! This, this..." Father Cheng was anxious.

"What nonsense!" Wan Songbai said leisurely, "Isn't it alright to adopt Qiqi as well! I have chosen everyone, it is my wife and brother's house. Qiqi's uncles and aunts have no daughters, so they love Qiqi. Don't worry, they can't ask for this."

Cheng Shi was dizzy for a while, and his head couldn't turn around: "Then Mrs. Sister-in-law can agree? Eqi is her heart!"

Wan Songbai laughed and scolded: "I think you are tired and stupid! If it wasn't for Mother Qi's promise, I can think of adopting Qiqi to my brother-in-law's house? How much more than your sister-in-law promised, since I told her about it, she couldn't sleep because of her happiness!" After a

pause, he sighed again, "Hey, the virtuous brother and his wife have a generous heart, so let me feel my conscience and say, I wouldn't be happy for a girl like Qiqi to be a bride for my family! Reckless, impulsive and self-willed, she doesn't look like a bride at all! "

Brother, don't underestimate yourself, curling up is not much better. You talk back to me every three days, and what you say can make people angry..." Cheng Shi said.

Wan Songbai waved his hand to stop him: "It's not the same, it's not the same! Curly is someone who has a plan in his heart. What is the place in the palace, she said that there is a lot of hype, do you and I really think that there is a paradise? Even if there are the queen and Ling Bu Doubtful care, if she didn't have a sense of how to advance and retreat, she would be untenable! Qiqi is different, she is really careless and careless, now it's alright, you can 'marry' her and go home , your sister-in-law can't wait to take out your heart and heart as a gift for the two of you!"

Cheng Shi was confused: "Brother, let me take it easy, let me discuss with Yuan Yi..."

"You! You are just not manly. !" Wan Songbai hated that iron could not become steel, "The head of the family promised to have a woman in this kind of thing!"

After scolding, he soon laughed again, "Eh, then you might as well tell Xiao Shi, although I'm not as good as you in battles and formations, but I have a hand in accumulating family wealth, as long as she agrees, my ten thousand family wealth will be all It's Zifu's! In the future, I don't care about the outside world, and when I get home, Zifu still calls you grandfather and grandma, and I don't care about anything, haha, hahahaha!"

Cheng Shi looked at the face of his righteous brother who laughed happily, and was moved in his heart. , said in a low voice: "Brother, I know that you are well-intentioned and sincere, but you must think clearly, there is no turning back when you open your bow! If you really adopt Zifu, and your brother will give birth to a son in the future, what will happen? , if Ruoqiqi can't give birth to a son in the future, so what? Is it possible that if Zifu takes a concubine, the child born will have no blood relationship with the Wan family!"

Wan Songbai stopped laughing, his eyes seemed to have Yingguang, looking at Cheng Shi steadily, said word by word, "Brother Xian, I am not as lucky as you, and my blood ties have been weak since I was a child. Back then, I watched with my own eyes when my uncles forced my mother to cut out her eyes and ears to show her ambition, and the blood was dripping. Ah! When I was young, they even plotted against me. Over the years, they even wished that our mother and son would die outside early, in order to occupy this family property! I won't move the sacrifices and ancestral property, but my parents and my mother and I created the They won't let them covet his property!"

"I was besieged by bandits in the jungle that day. Although I was injured and confused, I still remember that Zifu tied me on his back. I was heavy and pressed him down. He couldn't stand up straight, but he wouldn't abandon me to run for his life anyway - I thought at the time, even if it were my own son, when disaster strikes, it's nothing more than that!"

"Don't tell Xiao Shi that. ——She taught the children very well, brave and resourceful, and honest. It is my blessing to have a benevolent and filial child like Zifu as my son. It is to take away a good son of the virtuous brother, the foolish brother Yu My heart is uneasy!"

Cheng Shihu's eyes were filled with tears, and he held his righteous brother's hands tightly: "What did the elder brother say, if the righteous brother did not give his full support, we would have been drowned in the chaos of war with the help of our husband and wife! The Panshan thief surnamed Chen wants to fight with me. The enemy is outnumbered, and the entire army is about to be annihilated. It was my brother who lent me all his belongings to resist the enemy army. This is such a kindness..."

"What nonsense! Eight lifetimes You still have to go back and forth about the old sesame rotten millet in the past, it seems that you have a good memory. You are such a mother-in-law that you are always bullied by Xiao..."

The two brothers looked at each other and smiled, Wan Songbai was about to reassure his righteous brother about his wife, when he heard a commotion outside, followed by Cheng Yong's hurried and flustered voice -

"Mother, something has happened! The thief Peng Zhen suddenly appeared in prison, saying that he had colluded with King Gan'an for a long time and wanted to conspire together! The two thousand catties of fine copper from Tongniu County at the time were his gift to King Gan'an!"

Outside the hall After a moment of silence, a lazy boy's voice sounded: "What does this have to do with us, eldest brother, sit down first, take a breath and drink some water."

"Young Gong, shut up! Yong'er, you continue to say, is it involved? It's time for Wang's house!" said Madam Xiao.

"Mum's expectations are not bad!" Cheng Yong seemed to take a breath, "The thief also said that if it wasn't for the line that Wang Chun, the general of the chariots and cavalry, led him many years ago, he would not know the Gan'an family at all. He raised his troops to rebel. After that, it was Wang Chun who sent a letter to ask him to connect with the Qian'an Palace..."

"It's not true! Could it be that what Peng Zhen said means nothing? It's not surprising that the traitor is dying and wants to pull a few more people to support him." !" This was Cheng Song's voice.

"Second brother, don't interrupt, the eldest brother is in such a hurry, it must not be just Peng vacuum's white teeth crawling and biting!" Cheng Shaogong said.

"That's right! Peng Zhen kept his mind. He wanted Wang Chun to plead for His Majesty on his behalf, but seeing that Wang Chun ignored him, he kept doing it and took out all the hidden Wang Chun letterheads! "

...Elder brother, you'd better finish it in one breath." Shao Shang's indifferent and cold voice, calm and slow, "I'm afraid it's not just about the Wang family. Is it also about the East Palace?"

Cheng Yong Chang sighed: "There are a few letters in it that say it's best to lead your Majesty to go on a personal expedition, and then take it from there. As long as your Majesty's tomb collapses, the crown prince will be able to take the throne, and then there will be Wang and Peng families. Yes ."

The author has something to say:

Han, Tang, Wei and Jin have always had the ethos of adopting children, but for different reasons. For example, Li Keyong's Thirteen Taibao was a group of generals who were used by the separatist forces to win over their father-son relationship in order to strengthen their influence; not as good as Cao Zhen, who was originally surnamed Qin, and his biological father was Cao When the boss died in battle, Boss Cao accepted him as himself, and even changed his surname.

In addition to not being the heir, Cao Zhen has all the treatment of the Cao family's heirs, and even later became the auxiliary minister.

There is also the practice of adopting the child of a good friend's brother as the heir, and even Zhou Shizong is his brother-in-law's heir, don't ask me why.

It was also a very popular practice for eunuchs to receive heirs in the Han and Tang dynasties, especially in the Eastern Han Dynasty. The emperor would even confer various official positions on the heirs of eunuchs like normal people, and inherit the power of eunuchs, etc.

As for Boss Cao, everyone knows that his grandfather Cao Teng was a famous eunuch in the Eastern Han Dynasty, but where did Boss Cao's father come from? Some say that it was adopted by the Cao Teng brothers, and some said that it was adopted by the Xiahou family, but I did not check carefully.

There is another explanation, called a fictitious clan, which is to treat a family that is not related by blood and one's own family as the same family, regardless of name, life, or self-identity, treat each other as one's own family.

This is my interpretation of the relationship between the Wancheng family.

Anyway, whether it was a fictional clan, or the original surname of Boss Cao, Xiahou, in short, the Xiahou family was so loyal to the Cao family that after the Sima family usurped the throne, the Xiahou family was liquidated miserably, and even Sima Shi's queen Xiahou Hui was killed. died.

above.
