"Xiao Ran, how many people are in the family, what do your parents do?"

Huo Wuxian's grandmother took Ji Ran's little hand and asked kindly. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info

"There are three people in the family, my father works in a factory, and my mother is a teacher. Ji Ran replied truthfully.

"Oh, yes, no wonder it's so quiet, it turns out to be a scholarly family. Grandma said with a smile.

Since Ji Ran came to the house, Huo Wuxian's grandmother thinks that Ji Ran is scrutinized, the old man looks at people differently from young people, and pays more attention to his face.

Although the old man is not a face seeger, he also heard the old man say in his early years that there are several tricks to see whether a person's face is good or bad, first to see if the forehead is big, then to see if the face is round, and to see if the eyebrows are long.

If the forehead is big, the face is round, and the beauty is thin and long, such a girl must be blessed, and Ji Ran just belongs to this list.

This is in the ancient picture book, called Wangfu Xiang.

The old man was very satisfied, plus Ji Ran knew how to be polite, could speak well, and was beautiful, so he liked her even more.

The old lady is a respected elder in the family, seeing that her old man likes Ji Ran so much, the other relatives have also figured out the old lady's thoughts, and they all look up to Ji Ran, and everyone's face is full of festive looks.

In such a warm family, Ji Ran quickly eliminated the tension and gradually integrated into the atmosphere of the big family.

"I thought your family was hard to get along with, but I didn't expect it to be so welcoming. Ji Ran whispered to Huo Wuxian.

"Of course, my grandfather is a well-informed person, so my mother and my uncle are also very reasonable, and of course it is easy to get along.

What's more, they all treat you as their own family, so they don't need to be restrained. Huo Wuxian said with a smile.

"By the way, why is there no one living in the old house in front of you, only someone living here? Isn't your father separated from your aunt? Why is this house not lived by your father, but by your aunt?" Ji Ran asked strangely.

"The relatives of the three old houses in front have long moved away, my third grandfather joined Inter in his early years, and then lost his news after the defeat, it is said that he went to Wanwan, and the second grandfather went south to Guangzhou, except when I was very young, I came back to worship my ancestors once, and I never came back, as for the fourth grandfather, I have no impression.

This old house was left by my grandfather, because my grandfather was the eldest son of my grandfather, so I couldn't go out, I could only keep the family here, but my grandfather also knew my father's temperament, and felt that there was no hope for the family business to be handed over to him, so he handed over the key to my mother, my grandfather knew that my mother was a family and filial person, so before my grandfather died, he specially explained to my mother that no matter at any time, he could not sell this old mansion, this is the root of the Huo family.

Therefore, no matter how much money others paid for these old houses, and no matter how difficult my mother and I were financially, they never sold them and kept them until now. Huo Wuxian explained.

Hearing Huo Wuxian's detailed introduction to the family history, Ji Ran couldn't help but be in awe of his future mother-in-law, "To be able to get such a high evaluation from grandpa, it seems that my aunt is really a good person who is filial, and in the future, I will be like my aunt and be filial to the elderly." ”

"Hehe, well, yes, you will definitely be a good daughter-in-law who is filial. Huo Wuxian encouraged with confidence.

Ji Ran nodded happily, and his heart was full of anticipation.

After lunch, Huo Wuxian took Ji Ran's little hand and walked around the mansion, and before he knew it, he came to the ancestral house.

The ancestral house is located in the westernmost alley of the mansion, with the door facing east, and a wooden window, although it is idle all year round, it is still very clean.

Huo Wuxian pushed open the door, and there was a faint smell of incense inside.

The first thing that catches your eye is a one-man tall clay statue, the figure in the statue is wearing a suit of armor and holding a long stalk in his hand, which looks majestic and majestic, quite in the style of the old man.

On both sides of the statue, a couplet hangs on each side.

The upper link on the left is, "Enter and exit the forbidden place, and the picture is on the Qilin Pavilion!"

The lower link on the right is, "Ascend to the Hanhai, the official defeats the hussar general!"

Looking at these two couplets, Ji Ran looked at Huo Wuxian strangely, "What do these couplets mean?"

"The couplet on the left is to say that my ancestor Huo Guang, he was the great Sima of the Han Empire, in his later years, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, once entrusted the seven-year-old Emperor Zhao of the Han Dynasty Liu Fuling to him, appointed him as the minister of Gu Ming, Huo Guang carefully assisted the little emperor, so that the Han Empire in the dangerous period of the main Shaoguo doubt, to be able to smooth the transition, and then Emperor Zhao collapsed early, he has no heirs, Huo Guang will welcome the grandson of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, Changyi King Liu He to succeed him.

As a result, I didn't expect Liu He, the king of Changyi, to be a son who didn't do his job, and he did many bad things in less than a month after succeeding to the throne, so Huo Guang had no choice but to unite with the Empress Dowager Shangguan and abolish the king of Changyi.

In the next nearly a month, there was no emperor in the Han Empire, and all the government was in the hands of Huo Guang alone, at this time, if Huo Guang wanted to usurp the throne and seize power, it was also a logical thing, but Huo Guang did not do that, and soon, he set up the great-grandson of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, Liu Ai, who succeeded to the throne, that is, the later Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty.

Huo Guang continued to assist Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty and was loyal and conscientious until his death.

Later, although the Huo family was wiped out, Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty was grateful for Huo Guang's kindness, and still painted Huo Guang's portrait on the Qilin Pavilion, and was listed as the first of the twenty-four heroes of the Qilin Pavilion and became the first loyal minister of the Han Empire. Huo Wuxian explained in detail.

"Why did the Huo family later exterminate the clan?" asked Ji Ran puzzled.

It stands to reason that how could such a meritorious hero be exterminated?

What's more, if he was exterminated, then how could he be offered by Huo Wuxian as an ancestor?

This is because Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty Liu Ai's grandfather was Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty's most beloved son Liu Ju, and Liu Ju's mother was Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty's favorite queen Wei Zifu, but in the later years of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, he was suspicious and appointed the cool official Jiang Chong to picket disloyal ministers, and Jiang Cheng once offended the crown prince Liu Ju in order to show loyalty to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.

Jiang Chong thought to himself that if the crown prince succeeded to the throne, he would definitely have no good fruits to eat in the future, so he had the idea of getting rid of the crown prince Liu Ju.

Therefore, he and the eunuchs falsely accused the crown prince Liu of cursing Emperor Wu of Han with witchcraft, hoping that Emperor Wu of Han would die early.

As a result, this matter reached the ears of Emperor Wu of Han, which made Emperor Wu of Han displeased, so he ordered Jiang Chong to interrogate the prince.

However, the prince is not a fool, of course he knows what kind of medicine is sold in Jiang Chong's gourd, if he is interrogated, he will definitely be more auspicious, and he would like to kill himself.

As a result, the prince was forced to have no choice but to lead the Jingshi army and raise troops to rebel, but the prince's army was finally defeated, the prince Liu Ju was killed, and the queen Wei Zifu hanged himself.

The descendants of the crown prince Liu Ju went to the people, incognito, and avoided political accountability.

In this way, by the time Liu Ying was born, he was already almost like a poor boy from a peasant family, and by the time he reached the age of thirteen, no girl was willing to marry him.

Because they all know his identity and background, he is the grandson of the rebellious prince, if anyone marries him, in case the court turns over the old accounts, I am afraid that he will also be unlucky, so no girl from any family is willing to follow him. ”

"Thirteen years old? Twenty-three, right? Thirteen years old is still a child. Hearing this, Ji Ran asked strangely.

"Hehe, the ancients married early, especially in the Han Dynasty, men generally got married at the age of thirteen or fourteen, and had children at the age of fifteen or sixteen, and the average life expectancy in the Han Dynasty was only twenty-two years old. Huo Wuxian explained with a smile.

"Ah, the average life expectancy of the Han Dynasty was so low, so we can live to be seventy or eighty years old casually now?" Ji Ran is even more strange, they all say that the prosperous Han and Tang dynasties, I didn't expect that in such a glorious era, the life span of human beings was so short.

"Of course, this can't be compared, now that science and technology are developed, and the society is highly civilized, people don't have to worry about eating and drinking, and there is medical security when they are sick, and of course they have a long life. Huo Wuxian explained with a smile.

"Oh, what about later? Did Liu Yi find his wife later?" asked Ji Ran eagerly.
