Chapter 109 The Cao Family
Yan Song's relatives are the people Yun Shu doesn't want to deal with the most. Pen fun pavilion www.biquge.info but there is nothing to be embarrassed about thinking that sooner or later he will also be a relative. Now it seems that there is no way to hide the affairs in the palace from those who want to know.
Since the founding of the People's Republic of China, the attitude of Yan and Song to foreign relatives has always been that they are vain officials and do not have real power, and their relatives are not allowed to pay homage to the prime minister. This is also something that Yun Shu is depressed about, if he marries the princess of Yan Song, he will also become Yan Song's relative, and become a useless concubine waiting for death. All the good things are gone.
It is a Chinese tradition to combine the relationship between father and son, the order of the elders and young in the Ming Dynasty, and to respect the four seas, but in the Yan and Song Dynasty official families, for a certain purpose, forcibly raised the generation of the horse, with the grandfather as the father and the father as the brother, correspondingly, the name of the horse was also changed.
This kind of joke also truly reflects Yan Song's strict management of his relatives. But Yun Shu didn't take it to heart, he didn't plan to pay homage to the prime minister, he just wanted a stable life, just eat and wear without worrying.
The position of the horse is the most suitable for himself, and the so-called Donghua Gate roll call is just a proof of himself that he is a person who studies history, and he is really sorry for his knowledge if he does not participate in the imperial examination.
Thinking of the sleepy-eyed student in the last class, Yun Shu really wanted to tell him: After studying history, he can survive after traveling through time. Thinking of this, Yun Shu couldn't help but smile bitterly, it was really unpleasant to have a cycle of karma,
The night is like water, the moonlight is shallow, the pedestrians on the road are vague, Jing'er is holding Rui'er's little hand and carrying Yun Shu's arm and walking on the road, she hasn't felt so safe for a long time, there is a person she can rely on is what she dreams of having, she was helpless to work for those poor people when she was in the White Lotus Sect, so that she almost forgot that she was a woman, and now that she has someone to rely on, she can't help but tighten her arms and fear that all this is a dream.
Yun Shu felt the tension coming from his arm, patted it lightly and said, "It's okay, everything has me!" ”…………
Eight hundred miles of Qinchuan hinterland, Weishui through the south, the mountains and rivers are in the north, the mountains and rivers are yang, so it is called Xianyang. The young man stood at the gate of Xianyang County and looked at the first emperor of the world with emotion and said softly: "Those who destroy the Six Kingdoms, the Six Kingdoms are also, not Qin." The Qin people, the Qin people, the non-world. Whew! ”
"Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable~ Why did Yun Xiaoyou sigh like this?"
"The little headscarf is starting to drop the bookbag again, the literati like this, this is called touching the scene and making love ......"
Just when Yun Shu was about to go crazy, the middle-aged man next to him sighed: "The Qin people don't have time to mourn themselves, and future generations mourn them; Later generations mourn and do not learn from it, and it also makes future generations mourn for future generations. ”
Yang Wei subconsciously turned his head and said, "You literati just like to drop your bookbag, it's really boring...... I seem to have seen you, are you from the Cao family? ”
The middle-aged scribe smiled and said, "Commander Yang is really a noble person who forgets things, a certain family is Cao Yi's Fan Tower in Tokyo City last year, and he once had a relationship." ”
Yang Wei suddenly realized: "Oh, I remembered! Aren't you transferred to Yaozhou as an observer? How could it be in Xianyang County? ”
"Some of the Cao family's properties in Xianyang were taken over by Cao Shi, but this uncompetitive thing actually did something to bully men and women, and the family strictly instructed me to take him back to the mansion in Yaozhou to discipline him! Commander Yang smiled. ”
In Yang Wei's surprised eyes, Cao Yi said to Yun Shu: "Please forgive me, little brother Yun." ”
He touched his nose and said, "Cao is polite, what is there to mention when the matter is turned over in the past?" Yun Shu was about to go to Cao's Mansion to pay a visit, and now it was really providential to meet Cao Observation. ”
Cao Yi nodded and said, "It's such a coincidence, I'm also about to pick up my nephew, how about the virtuous nephew." ”
"That's very good, Cao Observation please~" Cao Yi didn't get into the car, and walked towards the city, and Yun Shu followed behind him by half a mistake.
Yang Wei asked Lao Dao inexplicably, "What's the matter with the two of them?" ”
"You don't even know how I know?" Lao Dao said helplessly.
I have to ask Yu blind, Yang Wei shook his head helplessly and led the horse to follow, the convoy slowly marched towards the city, they still have to stay in Xianyang for a few days, the grain from all over Jingzhao Mansion is constantly gathering to Weishui Wharf, and when all the grain arrives, it will be transported to Henan Mansion to Ping'an Village.
All of this was secretly operated by Yang Wei, and only a veteran like him could make others unaware, but this time I met Cao Yi, I am afraid that the shopkeeper of the Cao family has already reported the situation to the family.
It is impossible to hide these people, the backstage of the Cao family is not only Queen Cao, but the deceased ancestor Cao Bin, the 100,000 army of the year destroyed the Southern Tang Dynasty, and the following year Ke Jinling, the decision to attack the Northern Han and Liao, the only defeat in his life was the Yan Song Dynasty divided the troops to attack the Khitan in three ways, he was the main general of the East Route Army, because the lone army ventured, the army was tired and lacked food, and was defeated by the Khitan army at Qigou Pass, causing the Yan Song Dynasty to retreat on the whole line, and the general of the right Xiaowei was lowered. Song Zhenzong was reinstated as privy envoy. After his death, he was nicknamed Wu Hui.
Although such a fierce man died, his family's status in Yan Song became higher and higher, and Cao Bin's granddaughter was Zhao Zhen's queen Cao, the Cao family was even more like a fish in water, and no one wanted to offend. Despite this, the Cao family still can't enter the two central mansions.
Even so, the news of the Cao family is the most well-informed, and they know some things in the palace, such as the matter of Yun Shu and Princess Gongguo, Zhao Zhen once inadvertently talked about it to the Cao family. The speaker has no intention of listening, and the Cao family wonders why the official family would marry their favorite daughter to an unknown boy?
The Cao family's investigation of Yun Shu all the way found that he was not simple, the biggest feature of Yan Song's relatives is unity, and he recruited his own people to fight against the civil official group.
Yan Song's relatives were not allowed to lead the troops, but once they encountered a major war, such as the "Xianping Alliance" back then, Yan Song would only dare to use these generals. The addition of the yellow robe back then made the old Zhao family completely distrust the military generals.
Only the military generals with blood ties such as foreign relatives can be used with complete confidence, even if they are "yellow robes" will not get the support of civilian officials, the army is controlled by civilians all the year round, and soldiers only recognize the dispatch of the Privy Council, and the privy envoys are generally served by civilian officials, so this is a dead end that will not go at all.
All the relatives are actually looking forward to recovering the land of Yanyun, because of Taizu's sentence: Yan Song is not crowned king, but those who recover Yanyun are hereditary to be crowned kings and rewards! This kind of hereditary title is a fatal temptation for all martial relatives.
The title of Yan Song is a posthumous honor, and it is a decreasing style, the prince is crowned the king, the prince only stops at his body, and the descendants do not ask the heirs, with the longest one of them, the duke, and the rest of the descendants are just Chengyin into the office, as the sanitation officer, and then move in order.
After Cao Bin's death, he was posthumously named the king of Jiyang County, and his eldest son Cao Can did not have any title, but he was an official to such an important position as the envoy of the Heyang Festival and the Tongping Zhangshi, provided that he was not a relative at that time, and now he is idle at home with the name of the envoy of the Heyang Festival.
The younger brother Cao Xi was named King of Wu, but it was because he was the father of Empress Cao.
The Cao family married Zhao Zhen, which made the Cao family glorious, and at the same time, it was equivalent to being beaten into the cold palace, with a prestige on the surface but no real power. But they are not without nothing in Yansong, they have their own net.
The children of the family other than the three generations are not within the scope of the relatives of the Yan and Song dynasties, and there are also adopted children and the children of the poor families they support, and these people have nothing to do with their relatives in name as officials.
Cao Chuan, the shopkeeper of the Cao family, had already told Cao Yi about Yun Shu's gold medal in his hand, so Cao Yi would "meet" Yun Shu by chance. As the eldest man in the family, Cao Yi is extremely interested in Yun Shu.
Yun Shu followed Cao Yi to Cao's mansion, the door of the house was opened, and the family Ding Nursing Home was already standing outside the door to greet him, Cao Yi is the eldest son of Cao Can, the current head of the Cao family, and the best candidate for the next family.
"Uncle is here! The little nephew has lost his welcome, and he is rude! With the sound of speaking, Cao Shi hurriedly ran out disheveled.
Cao Yi suddenly frowned and said in a deep voice: "Why did you come in such a hurry in broad daylight? Can't you just get up? ”
Cao Chuan hurriedly explained: "The little young master personally went to Jingzhao Mansion last night to purchase gifts for the eldest master and his family, and he only came back at midnight, so ......"
Hearing Cao Chuan say this, Cao Yi scolded with a smile: "You little monkey knows how to please people, this is a cloud official, you should have seen it, right?" ”
Cao Shi laughed and said, "Of course! The little nephew saw Brother Yun last night and talked with him very happily! He also said that he was going to visit the Cao family today, right, Brother Yun!? ”
"That's right, Brother Cao is bold and uninhibited, and he is very suitable for Yunshu's temperament, and he talks very happily!" Yun Shu said to Cao Yi with a smile, saying this is quite like turning everything over.
