Chapter 175: The Rise of the Shaw Clan (9)
"As the old saying goes: the wife is honored by the husband, the son is valued by the mother, and the folk children who are not in good health will often worship an adoptive mother, and they will be blessed by their blessings and shades, and they will grow up healthily!
Cang Shu's health is not very good, if he can worship an adoptive mother who is blessed with a great life, he will definitely eliminate all diseases and grow up healthy, but Cang Shugui is the son of the prime minister and is qualified to be his adoptive mother, there are very few in the world! ”
After listening to Xiao Yi's words, everyone couldn't help but nod again and again, but the Han family has this custom, worshipping the father-in-law and adoptive mother for the sick child, and praying for his protection!
Some places are even more exaggerated, thinking that people's blessings are limited, and the spirit of heaven and earth is endless, directly worship the boulder as a godfather, or worship the big tree as a godmother, and then give the child a cheap name, you can eliminate disasters and difficulties!
The ancients paid attention to the crown of men in their twenties, but when Cao Chong was ten years old, Cao Cao gave him a crown salute and gave him the words: Cangshu, that is, I hope that my beloved son will grow up healthily, which is similar to the name of a poor child!
Now it is a good thing to recognize Cao Chong's adoptive mother, but the son of the prime minister of the Han Dynasty, it is not possible to recognize stones and trees, that is the custom of poor families, and it is not appropriate to recognize a righteous father.
In addition, only the adoptive mother with a more noble status can be blessed by her blessings, and the status is higher than that of the Cao family, only the Han royal family, but among the adult women of the royal family, none of them are suitable to be Cao Chong's adoptive mother, and other families have suitable candidates, but the status is not enough......
"There is no need to worry about this matter, the candidate is far away and close at hand, if you talk about wealth and nobility, who can be better than Mrs.?"
"Good! Good...... This matter belongs to Madame! ”
Answering the question by himself, Xiao Yi clenched his fists slightly, and just faced Mrs. Ding, who suddenly had bright eyes, and accepted Cao Chong as his adopted son, which was too much to his liking.
Cao Cao was the first to react, and said two good words in a row, Cheng Yu, Mao Jue, and Jiang Ji even secretly gave their thumbs, Da Sima's move of 'pushing the boat down the river' is really beautiful!
Mrs. Ding has a special status, no matter how she adopts that son, it will interfere with the major affairs of the prince and affect the stability of the Cao Ying Group, but if she forcibly obstructs it, there is no suitable reason, and she will offend this lady in the main room!
Cao Cao felt guilty about her, once Mrs. Ding was unhappy, the traitor would inevitably be furious, and the consequences would be serious......
Cao Chong is an exception, although he is extremely talented, his health is too poor, even if he has the status of a son-in-law, he will not be able to inherit the inheritance, let alone attract the jealousy of his brothers!
Everyone also saw that Mrs. Ding liked Cao Chong very much and regarded him as the reincarnation of Cao Ang, in order to comfort the pain of losing her son, and Cao Chong had one more mother-in-law, which was equivalent to one more umbrella, which was really the best of both worlds!
"I'll wait to congratulate the eldest lady and add a beloved son to my knees!"
"I'm waiting to congratulate Gongzi Cangshu on becoming the son of the Cao family!"
…………
Cheng Yu, Mao Jue, and Jiang Ji immediately stepped forward to congratulate and confirm this matter, Mrs. Ding returned the courtesy, and then ran to take care of Cao Chong, showing the love of a mother!
Cao Cao stroked his beard, laughed with satisfaction, and was ready to go back to revise the family tree and officially hold the succession ceremony, as for Cao Chong's biological mother, Mrs. Huan, as a concubine, she has no right to speak!
However, there are still some things to say, if Mrs. Huan doesn't dispel her ambitions, sooner or later there will be trouble, and next time it won't be so easy to pass.
"The battle of the hidden dragon, dangerous and abnormal, Mrs. Wang's self-indulgence, even if you don't think about yourself, you have to think about the two little sons, don't make the things that make people reappear, don't make the tragedy of King Zhao Yin repeat!"
Taking advantage of no one's attention, Xiao Yi walked up to Mrs. Huan and whispered a few words softly, the latter suddenly lost her face and trembled with fright.
Han Gaozu Liu Bang has a concubine - Mrs. Qi, who was born with a more slender appearance than Xi Shi, and is more proficient in music and dance skills, so he has the favor of a special room, and also has a son named Liu Ruyi, who is the third son of Liu Bang!
didn't think that Mrs. Qi was pampered and arrogant, not only repeatedly provoked the authority of the queen-Lu Pheasant, but also kept blowing the pillow wind, first let his son become the king of Zhao, and then seek the position of the crown prince, but was blocked by Xiao He and Zhang Liang A group of important ministers.
When Liu Bang died and the crown prince Liu Ying succeeded to the throne, Lu Pheasant became the queen mother, and immediately launched a crazy revenge, first deceived King Zhao Ruyi into the capital and poisoned him with a glass of wine, 'King Zhao Yin' is his nickname!
He also used the power in his hands to torture Mrs. Qi -- chopped off her limbs, gouged out her eyes, poured copper juice into her ears to make her lose her hearing, and cut off her tongue so that she could not speak...... In the end, he was thrown into the dung pit and became 'Man's Bun! ’
Xiao Yi's words are to warn Mrs. Huan to immediately put away her thoughts and not to participate in the dispute between the princes, otherwise once Cao Pi and Cao Zhi take the throne, her fate may not be better than that of Mrs. Qi, and the brothers Cao Ju and Cao Yu will also suffer!
"I hope that Da Sima will have mercy, for the sake of Cangshu's face, so as to protect the lives of our mother and son!"
Mrs. Huan took a few steps back, her heart was full of fear, this kind of top-level political game is really not something she can participate in, it is better to save her life!
In the years that followed, Mrs. Huan really restrained herself, no longer asked about military and political affairs, and did not participate in the dispute between the prince and the prince, so she stayed in the prime minister's mansion honestly, played the piano and painted every day for fun, and respected Mrs. Bian even more.
In the evening of the same day, the group stayed in the university and held a grand banquet, firstly, to comfort many doctors and students, hoping that they would achieve better results in the new year; The second is to celebrate Mrs. Ding's adoption of her adopted son, and pray for Cao Chong's health and longevity!
During the banquet, Cao Cao, Xiao Yi and others drank happily until they were happy, and then they went to bed and rested; Early the next morning, when she was about to return to the city, Mrs. Ding firmly refused and asked to stay in the Zhengming Academy!
First, Cao Chong's body is still very weak, she wants to stay and take care of him, and then cultivate the relationship between mother and son, and the surrounding environment of the school is elegant, it is a good place to cultivate!
Second, the hearts of the people inside and outside the Prime Minister's Mansion are on Mrs. Bian's side, even if Mrs. Ding goes back, she is just boring herself, so let's keep my dignity!
Regarding Mrs. Ding's decision, the ministers raised their hands and feet in favor, thinking that this was the best arrangement, Cao Cao did not object, and promised to come over often to visit their mother and son, and then returned to the prime minister's mansion with a group of people!
………………………………………………………………………………
"Shengyin--Shengjiu, everyone is drunk and resting!"
"I would like to congratulate the Prime Minister and Mrs. - grow old together, and the children and grandchildren will be full!"
After returning to the Prime Minister's Mansion, Cao Cao once again held a banquet, and Mrs. Bian sat next to her as the main mother and accepted the toast of the ministers together, which can be regarded as making up for the previous debt!
Mrs. Huan led the concubines, and Cao Xiong led the younger brothers and sisters, and stepped forward to toast in turn, and arranged more wonderful songs and dances, which were even more lively than the first day of the Lunar New Year.
After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, Cao Cao left the lobby and went straight to the secret room under the pretext of not being able to drink too much, and dozens of civil and military ministers such as Xiao Yi, Cheng Yu, Mao Jue, and Jiang Ji also passed one after another.
The family affairs of the Prime Minister's Mansion have been perfectly solved, and the next step is the affairs of the country and the world, how to quell the civil uprisings in various places, how to suppress the gate lords of the Shi clan, and how to defend the southern princes?
"Whew! --Call! Call! ”
In the secret room of the Prime Minister's Mansion - the lights flickered, bright as day, Cao Cao sat in the center, the civil and military were lined up on both sides, and dozens of people gathered, but except for the sound of heavy breathing, there was no other sound, everyone was bowing their heads and pondering:
In fact, it is very simple to solve the civil uprising, as long as the imperial court distributes money, grain, farm tools, and seeds...... Let the people have a house to live in, have enough to eat, and have fields to cultivate, and they will live honestly, have children, and the key problem is: the treasury is empty, and there is no money and food!
After nearly two years of conquest, the treasury has been depleted, and now it is asking for money and food, and there is a shortage of young and strong laborers, not to mention the relief of the people everywhere, and even the imperial court is difficult to operate normally!
In the past few months, in order to solve the financial problem, Cao Cao and others thought of many methods: civil and military officials donated money, borrowed money from wealthy businessmen, set up cards on the transportation arteries of various states, and levy additional tolls......
It's a pity that the money they got was extremely limited, and it was not enough to fill the treasury, so the internal affairs officials Liu Ye, Man Chong, and Chen Qun were so anxious that they scratched their ears and cheeks, their eyes were red, and they drank several bowls of gunpowder every day, but they couldn't get money and food to save their lives.
Thinking of this, everyone's eyes converged on Xiao Yi, as the so-called capable person works harder, since he is also the big farmer, he naturally has to solve the financial problem!
Xiao Yi was already prepared, took out a copy of the recital from his arms, and handed it to Cao Cao with both hands, with four big characters on it: Ten Strategies for Governing the Country:
First, the battle of the Southern Expedition failed, the soldiers suffered heavy casualties, and the people were very resentful.
Second, the old, weak, and disabled in the army should be reduced, and they should be given cattle, seeds, and land, and let them return to their hometowns to work as farmers, so as to increase the number of civilian laborers and reduce the consumption of grain and grass in the army!
Third, the imperial court has been fighting for many years, and the people are exhausted, so they should be exempted from one year's field tax and labor, so that the people can recuperate and rebuild their homes!
Fourth, expand the number of diggers, and go to various places to search for treasures and minerals to supplement the shortage of the national treasury......
