Chapter 15: The Story of Yiwu, Phantom Sneak (4)
"Xi'er takes these two things and goes to the Hou Mansion without worries, someone will take care of everything, Aunt Wen Ji's family is one of the best talented women, you can live in the Hou Mansion and study with her for a while!
When my uncle returns triumphantly, he will set up a women's school in the Zhengming Academy, you will be the first female student, and when the time comes, work hard, don't let those men with eyebrows! ”
Xiao Yi wrote another letter, along with a Hou Mansion token, and handed it all to Ma Weixi, and then touched the little girl's head, her face was full of love, just like her own 'daughter'!
A little girl is well-read, and has such an outstanding opinion, it is really rare, although the idea is not mature, but it is an assertive person, if you cultivate it well, the future may be the mother of the world!
"Xi'er, thank you uncle for your cultivation, you must study hard and live up to your love!"
"I'm going to Xuchang, I'm going to enter the Zhengming Academy--haha!"
…………
After receiving the letter and token with both hands, Ma Weixi kowtowed again, slowly withdrew from the Chinese military tent, and maintained a dignified demeanor at first, but shouted when he went out, which showed how excited he was in his heart.
The famous Cai Wenji, but the idol of countless aristocratic girls, has a collection of more than 10,000 volumes in the Hou Mansion, and there are countless capable people......
"The little girl is stubborn, so that the eldest brother laughs, and when she arrives at the Wushou's Mansion in the future, she hopes that the sister-in-law will discipline her more, beat and scold, just like her own daughter!"
"Hehe, Xi'er is very cute, if you husband and wife are willing, give it to me as a 'daughter', so that she can live in the Wushou Mansion forever!"
"Well, is this true?"
"A gentleman's word, the horse is difficult to chase!"
Ma Liu and Lu Ling'er are naturally happy when their daughter gets Tang Muyi, and she can go to Zhengming University to further her studies and learn from the talented girl Cai Wenji, but what makes them even happier is that Xiao Yi wants to accept her daughter!
This is not a righteous daughter, or a stepdaughter, these two daughters are going to marry out when they grow up, how can they live in the Wuwu Hou Mansion forever?
Only another kind of 'daughter' can live forever in the Hou Mansion without worries, Xiao Yi is equivalent to a marriage in disguise, this is what the husband and wife have been looking forward to, and they are naturally ecstatic, but the eldest has nine sons: Xuan, Yao, Zhan, Qi, Huang, Feng, Chou, Fu, Luo...... I don't know which one to propose? (Liu Hao is an illegitimate child, and few people know about it)
This is a big problem, after the daughter entered the Wushou's Mansion and held a family banquet, there was a big gap between whether to sit in the north and face the south (Mrs. Concubine) or sit in the east and face the west (Mrs. Concubine).
"The dragon gave birth to nine sons, the sons are different, I don't know what the eldest brother means?"
"Hehe, the young and the old are orderly, don't disobey, naturally start with Xuan'er!"
"Haha--haha!"
Xiao Yi picked up the pen in his hand and wrote another line of words: The fourth year of Jian'an - the ninth day of August - the moment of the hour, it is the birthday of the eldest son Xiao Xuan!
Ma Liu took the brush and also wrote a line of words: The seventh year of Jian'an - the seventh day of the first month - three o'clock in the first month, it is the birthday of his daughter Ma Weixi!
The man is three years older than the woman, one is the fire life - the day of the rat, the other is the wood life - the moon palace rabbit, the wood can prosper the fire, the sun and the moon travel the sky, and the eight characters of the birthday are quite matched!
The two sides exchanged birthdays, and three high-fives for the appointment, both looked up to the sky and laughed, both life and death brothers, but also children and daughters, feelings, relationships have taken a step forward, since then both prosperity and loss, the two families are really tied together!
However, in addition to being happy, Ma Liu and Lu Ling'er were also a little depressed, their daughter had just gotten a Tang Muyi, and in a blink of an eye, she made a marriage contract with the Xiao family, which is equivalent to 'returning the thing to its original owner', and the family has to prepare a lot of dowry...... The boss is the boss, and this calculation is unbeatable!
Some people can't help but ask, is it a bit too domineering for the children on both sides to set a marriage contract for them without seeing each other, let alone getting acquainted with each other?
I'm sorry, ancient marriage is like this: the order of the parents, the words of the matchmaker, the children only have the obligation to enter the cave room, and they have no right to put forward their opinions, and the slightest resistance is a big rebellion.
So that many people only know the height and appearance of the other half on the wedding night, and then become the most familiar stranger, give birth to a son and a half daughter, and then slowly understand each other...... After a lifetime, I feel pitiful when I think about it!
Xiao Yi is more open, first take the future daughter-in-law into the house, let her get along with her son slowly, run in a certain relationship, and then push the boat down the river, the dragon and the phoenix are auspicious...... It is estimated that in eight or nine years, I should be a grandfather!
"Congratulations to the boss, congratulations to the virtuous brother, the two families have become Qin and Jin, and from now on, we have to have a good drink!"
"That's right, let's have a good drink, and if we don't get drunk today, we won't go home--haha!"
Seeing Xiao and Ma marrying their families, Da Niu was very envious, but unfortunately his own woman was 'not angry', and gave birth to four calves in a row, but he didn't have a daughter, otherwise he could marry Xiao's!
However, the eldest is in the Xiliang grassland, and there are two baby daughters, the eldest one is already slim, and his son Niu Ben just matches, and he takes the time to say it, nine times out of ten, it is no problem, in the future, the Xiao family will be the emperor, and his son is the master of the horse......
"It's done, it's done...... If you don't get drunk, you don't go home - haha! ”
Next, the three of them sat together, constantly raising their glasses and drinking, Xiao Yi seemed to be overjoyed, and directly held the jar and drank wildly, his son's marriage was decided, but he had a heart, and countless hearts swelled up......
Xiao Yi is a high lord, holds a heavy army, and is the first general in the world, and people who want to marry their children and relatives can line up three times around Xuchang City, and the civil and military ministers, dignitaries and dignitaries all want to tie up this family business, Xiao Xuan and Xiao Huang brothers are the key targets!
Let's just talk about the queen Cao Xian, she often invites her sister into the palace to talk, and brings the little princess out every time, and she is kissing and kissing in and out of her words, and Cao Jie is a little tempted, but she is resolutely opposed by Xiao Yi, and there is no room for accommodation at all!
Cao Xian and Cao Jie are sisters, and the children of the two of them are married, and it sounds good to be close to each other, but in fact, it is a marriage between close relatives, and what to do if they give birth to a little fool who 'why not eat minced meat', they have to cry to death!
The rest of the sons of the Xiao family have no blood conflict, but there is a problem of political stance, Xiao Yi is a 'hardcore' pro-Cao faction, and he can't marry the royal family (at least not on the surface, and if he sleeps in private, how can he be abolished in the future?
In addition, Cao Cao also has the intention of strengthening the relationship between the Cao and Xiao families through marriage, and then ensuring the Cao family, but unfortunately there is no suitable candidate, Cao Pi has only one son and no biological daughter?
The rest of the princes Cao Zhang, Cao Zhi, and Cao Xiong do not have daughters of appropriate age, and even if they do, they cannot marry with the Xiao family, otherwise the two forces will unite, and it will be difficult to protect the position of Cao Pi's son.
Cao Cao even wanted to pick a clan woman and consider her to be Cao Pi's goddaughter, and then marry Xiao Xuan as his wife, but the effect of such a marriage was much worse, and after several temptations, Xiao Yi was opposed, and the traitor did not dare to give an order......
First, if you are still a close relative, your offspring will be prone to fools, and second, the marriage with the adulterous family will interfere with Xiao Yi's plans and even threaten the Xiao Dynasty!
Think about it, if Xiao Xuan takes a woman surnamed Cao and Xiahou, what is the attitude of this woman, whether her heart is towards her husband's family or her mother's family, will she blow the pillow wind, interfere with Xiao Xuan's political judgment, or spy on Xiao's intelligence?
Taking a step back, even if Xiao Xuan did not interfere with women and completed the mission of 'Han Xing in the Wei Dynasty, Xiao followed him', but after the establishment of the Xiao Dynasty, the Cao and Xiahou families are still relatives, and they can intervene in the country's military and political affairs and the selection of the Xiao prince through the relationship between the queen!
And this kind of intervention must be very negative, and even provoke the descendants of the Xiao family to kill each other, if they seize the opportunity to form a situation of regency of their relatives, I am afraid they will take the country back, look at the actions of the relatives in the Han Dynasty, that chaos has nothing to do with them?
As a mature politician, you must take a long-term view and plan well for your children and grandchildren, so on the issue of marriage, Xiao Yi's attitude is very clear: the royal family is not good, the surnames Cao and Xiahou are not good, and it is best not to have a scholar woman!
Ma Liu has been a good brother for many years, Lu Ling'er grew up in the Hou Mansion, and married their daughter to Xiao Xuan, this is really 'kissing and kissing', and the little girl is smart, diligent and studious, and she will be a virtuous helper in the future!
For the sake of the future of the Xiao Group, Xiao Yi is ready to change Ma Liu and cut the authority in his hands a little, so that it is for the good of everyone, but it will inevitably hurt people's hearts, so he made an appointment with the next family affair, which can be regarded as compensation.
Of course, just relying on one-sided fate and a few simple words of conversation is not enough to verify the character of the little girl, let alone predict the future, so when Xiao Yat made the marriage contract, he also left a buffer room...... It's true that she is a future daughter-in-law, but she may not be a lady in the main room!
In other words, whether Ma Weixi is a mother in the world or in the side palace in the future depends on her skills and creation, if her son meets a more favorite and more suitable woman, Xiao Yi will never object, just marry them all, manly - since he is a group of wives and concubines, and his children and grandchildren are full!
With such a calculation, it is inevitable that he will be a little black-bellied, and he will have the feeling of being a brother, but Xiao Yi has no choice, they all say that people are in the rivers and lakes, and they can't help it, but in fact, they are in the court, and they can't help it!
Cao Cao is sick and old, and his days are running out, and most of the burden of Jiangshan Sheji is on Xiao Yi's shoulders, so what support does he rely on?
Is friendship - Sun Bin and Pang Juan are brothers, Liu Bang and Xiang Yu are sworn brothers, what is the result?
Is it family affection--Fusu and Hu Hai are brothers, and Liu Che and Liu Ju are father and son, what is the result?
Is it love - Liu Bang and Lu Pheasant are husband and wife, and they founded the Han Dynasty together, but what happened later?
In the face of the supreme right, feelings are the most unreliable, only to weigh the pros and cons, use reason to suppress all feelings, and make the most correct judgment!
If ordinary people make mistakes, at most one family is unlucky, if officials make mistakes, it is bad luck for one city and one town, and if the co-owners of the world make mistakes...... The swords and soldiers are everywhere, and the blood is flowing like a river, that is, the people of the world have suffered together!
Therefore, Xiao Yat must not make mistakes, and if he does not make mistakes, he must calculate more, calculate his enemies, calculate his friends, and even count his relatives...... In the end, he is counted as a lonely person, this is the road of the emperor!
"The emperor of the ages, he is not lonely, if he can turn back time, he would rather stay on Crouching Tiger Mountain, be a carefree little Taoist, watch the water flow eastward, watch the sun fall in the twilight...... What does the world have to do with me? ”
