In "Poetry, Qifeng, Nanshan", it is said: "If you marry a wife, you must tell your parents", "If you marry a wife, you can't do it without a matchmaker". At this time, marriage basically has to adhere to the "order of the parents" and can only be concluded through the "words of the matchmaker". As a father, Cai Yong has the absolute right to marry. As long as the other parent's consent, he can order Cai Zhaoji to marry any person he chooses, and society and the law will recognize his authority in this regard, give strong support, and do not allow the children to disobey.

It's just that Cai Yong, as a typical literati, has always been sentimental and soft-hearted, and Cai Zhaoji is a daughter, so she doesn't need to go to the temple, and she will succeed the next generation. Cai Yong took pity on her, but he did not do persecution.

In fact, it is difficult for Cai Yong to marry a girl. Ordinary people, Cai Yong can't look down on it. Many young men were handsome, but they did not want to marry a widow for the first time. Where are so many families who happen to lose their wives? In history, after Cai Zhaoji returned to the Han Dynasty, with Cao Cao's ability, he could only find her a lieutenant in Tuntian to marry.

has been going back and forth for a long time, and Cai Yong usually talks about this issue with Cai Zhaoji, but he vaguely found that his daughter seems to be attached to the general Liu Bei. Cai Yong felt pity and sadness in his heart. I'm a miserable stupid daughter.

In the first year of Guanghe, due to frequent disasters, Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty issued an edict to Cai Yong to ask the reason. Let him be bold and tell the truth, and then go to the secret edict. Cai Yong bitterly criticized the political malpractices of the Chen Dynasty in the secret edict. bombarded eunuchs, accused traitors, and recommended virtuous ministers. said it very coolly, but the incident was leaked, and the eunuchs and others counterattacked, and Cai Yong's family was exiled to Shuofang. was assassinated on the way, but he was rescued by Liu Bei, Liu Ke, and Lu Min. Cai Zhaoji was only four or five years old at that time, and her father Cai Yong asked her to remember this incident, so she wrote it down deeply.

Later, Chang'an was in turmoil, and the Liangzhou soldiers entered the city, killing the corpses and the sea of blood, and the heads were rolling. It was Liu Bei again, who sent Guan Hai to save her family from the fire. Outside the city that day, Liu Bei said: "Yan Niang, do you remember Brother Wulang?" Let her burst into tears.

Since then, it has been deeply rooted, and I can no longer forget the figure and smile of that person. This made Cai Yong worried. Who you fancy is not good, you fancy Liu Xuande. They already have wives and concubines, and they have a large group of children. How is this good?

Seven and eight drags, dragged to the present. Zheng Xuan passed away this year, and Cai Yong was also born early. When he witnessed the death of his deceased, he naturally couldn't help but feel sad and sad. I thought to myself that I was so old, if I died, I would have to burden my daughter to keep filial piety, wouldn't it drag Yan Niang bigger and bigger? So he was ruthless, gritted his teeth, and invited Lu Zhi here.

Cai Yong vaguely said this to Lu Zhiyi. Lu Zhi fell into deep thought. His daughter is Xuande's wife, and she gave birth to a son-in-law, and her position has been consolidated. It's just that where Xuande will go in the future, Lu Zhi vaguely guessed in his heart. He knew that Xuande's current power was self-contained, and at that time, even if Xuande himself was unwilling, the people below would only push him forward with all their might.

Yan Niang Lu Zhi watched her grow up, smart and virtuous. and has a good relationship with his daughter Lu Hend. If it can really be accepted by Xuande, her daughter will have one more caring person in the future. Thinking of Yan Niang's bumpy situation again, Lu Zhi's heart softened, after all, they are all old people, and time is running out, and they only think about their juniors. So he agreed: "Uncle, I also agree to this matter, but Xuande is there, I don't know what he means?" ”

Cai Yong was overjoyed when he heard this, and pulled Lu Zhi to persuade him to drink. Liu Bei lost his father when he was young, Lu Zhi was half a master and half a father, Liu Bei was extremely respectful and filial to him, if Lu Zhi agreed, this matter would become more than half. The rest can only depend on the creation of his own daughter.

It was normal for monogamy to have multiple concubines in the Han Dynasty. Confucianism even rationalized it. Confucianism regards the monarch's polygamy as a virtue. Confucianism also advocated in the Book of Rites and Qu Li that "princes have wives, wives, wives, and concubines". "A gentleman, a wife, a concubine". Under the guidance of Confucianism, the accumulation of wives and concubines by men in the Han Dynasty was already officially recognized as a legitimate act.

In the families of ordinary princes and kings, most of them are groups of wives and concubines, like Liu Bei, with his current esteemed status, there are only three wives and concubines in the family, which is really incredible.

After Lu Zhi left Cai's mansion, he found some free time, so he ordered someone to go to Liu Bei's mansion and called his daughter over. After arriving home, Lu Zhi asked his youngest son Lu Yu to play with his nephew. But he was ready to talk to Lu Heng and do ideological work.

After chatting a few words, Lu Zhi said to Lu Xuan: "Jiu Niang, Xuande is already under one person and above ten thousand, is the mansion a little too deserted?" ”

Lu Heng leaned back in the chair, and was about to reply when he heard the words, but suddenly thought again, the husband is busy with everything, how can his father not know the reason? In this case, the house is deserted, but I am afraid that it is the inner house that I am asking. After a moment's hesitation, she replied, "Why did my father say that?" The daughter is accompanied by two younger sisters and children, which is also lively. ”

Lu Heng's answer was not leaky, and Lu Zhi was not good at going around the bend anymore. It's simply a father and daughter, and there's nothing bad to say. So Lu Zhi spoke bluntly and told Lu Cheng about it.

To sum up, it is as follows: First, this is what your Uncle Cai entrusted. Akihime's child is indeed pitiful.

Second, you are the eldest woman in the Xuande family, you must be broad-hearted, and you can't leave behind the reputation of jealousy.

Third, in the future, Xuande is unspeakably noble, and your identity will also change, so you must prepare early. At that time, it is natural that countless people will scramble to stuff women in Xuande's backyard. Akihime is friendly to you, and she is a remarried woman, so she is unlikely to threaten your status, so she should be your arm......

Lu Zhi said this, what else can Lu Zhi say. I could only endure the sourness in my heart and nodded in agreement. You have to share your husband with others, and you have to convince your husband yourself. Lu Heng felt really uncomfortable in his heart. Even if Cai Yan has a very close relationship with her, she is not happy in her heart.

Lu Zhi saw that his daughter was depressed, and he sighed in his heart, so he comforted him for a long time. He knew that this kind of thing would continue to increase more and more in the future. If your daughter doesn't learn to adjust her emotions, she will slowly accept and change. I'm afraid that I will get depressed and hurt my body.

In the evening, Liu Bei stayed in Lu Hang's room, feeling Lu Hang's different enthusiasm, and Liu Bei was overjoyed. After the wind calmed down, the two hugged each other and fell asleep. Lu Xian leaned on Liu Bei's chest, feeling the steady heartbeat of her husband, and then murmured, "Husband, is it okay for the concubine to bring Yan Niang in?" ”

Liu Bei fought for a long time, fell asleep, and only thought that he was going to take Cai Yan in to live. So he said disapprerovingly: "Yan Niang has not been here, some trivial things, why does Madam need to ask me." ”

Lu Xuan heard it and knew that Liu Bei didn't understand what he meant, so he turned his head, looked at Liu Bei with a pair of beautiful eyes, and said, "The meaning of the concubine body is to let her husband Nayan Niang enter the mansion." ”

Liu Bei was surprised at this time, he said, "Madam, why is this? ”

Lu Lai said quietly: "Yan Niang and the concubine are like sisters, she has been widowed so far, how can I bear it." And Uncle Cai is already old, if there is any case, I am afraid that Yan Niang will be helpless in the future. Since Yan Niang cares about her husband, it is better to follow her wishes. It's not in vain that I met her. ”

Liu Bei frowned, and his heart was a little angry inexplicably, I dare to give things to you without knowing it. Now just a notification? was about to say no, but suddenly remembered the weak figure with a hood standing quietly beside him when Cai Yong returned. The heart is soft. sighed: "That's it." This time, I will follow Mrs. ”

I saw Lu Lak pouting her cherry lips again, looking unhappy. With a move in his heart, he knew that this was not Lu Hang's intention. So he relaxed his arms, wrapped his arms around Lu Heng's slender waist, and said softly: "It's hard to be a lady." ”
