Chapter 259: Ancestor Worship

Yuan Shao proposed to use the gift of his son-in-law to arrange the marriage for Yuan Xu.

The Hebei subordinates looked at each other one by one.

Tian Feng came out and said: "What Yuan Gong wants is exactly in accordance with the will of heaven. ”

"What is Yuan Hao's opinion?" Yuan Shao asked.

"The five sons led the expedition, which can be described as hard work." Tian Feng said: "The son ambushed Zhang Yan, went out to Qingzhou, welcomed Liu Envoy Jun in Xuzhou, and made immortal contributions to the Yuan family. Yuan Gong's reward is deserved! ”

"Tian Gong's words are inevitably biased." Tian Feng's voice fell, and Feng Ji came out and said: "The fifth son has made immortal contributions, could it be that several sons have not made meritorious contributions?" ”

Refuted Tian Feng, Feng Ji saluted Yuan Shao and said, "Yuan Gong's move is categorical!" ”

Yuan Shao frowned, and there was a hint of displeasure on his face.

Feng Ji rarely contradicted Yuan Shao, but when the New Year was approaching, Yuan Shang looked at him.

He didn't seem to see it at all, and then said: "There is a difference between the concubine, what is the concubine?" What is Shu? He was born to his wife and will inherit the unification of Hebei in the future. Shu is born in a partial house, but the auxiliary son is prosperous in Hebei! The fifth son is a concubine, if he marries as a concubine and spreads it, he may become a laughing stock in the world. ”

"Feng Gong's words are wrong!" Another person came out and said: "Duke Yuan married the bride for the fifth prince with the gift of his son-in-law, but the number of rituals was raised. As for whether the descendants or the concubines are born, they are not involved. Marriage etiquette is just a matter of etiquette, how could Feng Gong say such a thing that he doesn't know how to speak? ”

The one who spoke was the frustration that Yuan Shao had never liked.

It was rare to agree with him, Yuan Shao said: "Please note." ”

He bowed deeply to Yuan Shao, and said in frustration: "Duke Yuan wants to marry the bride for the fifth son with the gift of his son-in-law. It should be taken into account that the son has passed the age of marriage and has been known for his military exploits. Meritorious. Yuan Gong's giver is just a courtesy! Many of you sons have the heart to make contributions. If Yuan makes this precedent public, it will definitely inspire the princes. It's better than guarding the distinction between concubines and concubines, and it chills the hearts of all your sons! ”

Frustrated professor has always spoken straightforwardly, and Yuan Shao is impatient with him.

When asked everyone about this, he was most worried about frustration.

Unexpectedly, it was Frustrated that he supported it, and it was Feng Ji who came out to oppose it.

Feng Ji still wanted to speak, but Yuan Shao stopped him.

"A certain intention has been decided, and the marriage is in accordance with the gift of the son-in-law!" Yuan Shao said: "When Cao Cao is defeated, he will be married!" ”

"Yuan Gong is mighty!" The crowd shouted again.

Feng Ji didn't say much, and followed everyone to shout.

The matter was conveyed. Yuan Shao led everyone out of the mansion.

Walking to the front yard, Yuan Tan whispered to Yuan Xu: "Father's decision is a good thing for you, and it is not a good thing. ”

"Thank you, eldest brother, for mentioning." Yuan Xu whispered.

The two brothers looked at each other, and then they said no more.

Yuan Shao made the decision to marry Yuan Xu with the gift of his son-in-law, and of course Yuan Tan could not have any dissatisfaction.

Yuan Xi and Yuan Shang felt very uncomfortable in their hearts.

Although it is only a wedding ceremony, in the eyes of the two, Yuan Shao has a little more preference for Yuan Xu.

The eighth brother Xianyong was still in infancy, so he received a lot of rewards.

Yuan Shao even ran to Mrs. Zhang every once in a while, just to hug his youngest son!

Yuan Mai fell ill. He even used this as a reason to refuse to send troops to help Liu Bei!

He has long been jealous and hateful to Yuan Mai, and Yuan Xu has also received such grace when he returns to Yecheng.

It made Yuan Xi and Yuan Shang resentful.

was full of unhappiness, but Yuan Shang looked indifferent, and Yuan Xi often smiled and chatted with the subordinates beside him.

It's as if they don't care!

Out of the Yuan family's mansion. Yuan Shao stood at the door, and the onlookers saluted and shouted: "Yuan Gong is mighty!" ”

Arching his hand to the people, Yuan Shao said: "The New Year is coming. Spring planting and autumn harvest have been orderly since ancient times. I have fun with you, and I hope you will work together to build Hebei! ”

The people shouted again for joy.

Yuan Shao instructed the guards who had been waiting for a long time: "Set off firecrackers!" ”

The Guardian answered. Lift the basket full of small bamboo tubes and walk to the copper furnace.

Piles of small bamboo tubes were poured into the copper furnace, and the red flames licked the bamboo. Soon people heard the "crackling" sound of bamboo tubes popping.

At first, the crackling sound was only scattered, but gradually the sound became denser and louder, and even a few bamboo tubes jumped out of the copper furnace and landed at the feet of the people at the front.

Firecrackers were set off, followed by a dance girl invited by the Yuan family from the market.

Ordinary people rarely have the opportunity or spare money to watch the singing and dancing, and the crowd of people around them is very happy to watch.

A building not far from the main entrance of the Yuan family.

Wanrou stood at the window, looking out at the street that surrounded many people.

"Girl, do you want to go and see?" Uncle Gong asked.

"You can just look at it from a distance, you don't have to get too close." Wanrou said: "When you get closer, you may not see it as much as here. ”

She came to Yecheng earlier than Yuan Xu.

Living in the city, she did not interact with any official eunuchs or rich gentry.

A well-informed person learned that she had come to Yecheng, and she refused to invite her with a lot of money.

She came to Yecheng for only one purpose, that is, to look at Yuan Xu from afar.

As for the rest, it is not very important to Wanrou!

There were many people standing outside the gate of the Yuan family's mansion, and Yuan Xu couldn't be seen at all when he looked at the building.

Even so, Wanrou still looked at it stupidly.

Near noon, the singing and dancing stopped, and the people dispersed, and Yuan Shao led everyone back to the house.

The emperor worships his ancestors and must climb the mountain.

The Yuan family is only a heroic man in Hebei, of course, it is impossible to choose a high mountain to worship the ancestors.

The ancestor worship is in the ancestral hall of the house.

The ancestral hall of the Yuan family is dedicated to the ancestors and ancestors.

The top ranking is for Yuan Shao's grandfather Yuan An.

Yuan An was once the Situ of the Great Han Dynasty, the fourth and third dukes of the Yuan family, and it was from him that he began!

Under Yuan An's tablet is Yuan Shao's grandfather Yuan Tang, who was a captain, and further down, is the tablet of Yuan Feng, the father of Yuan Shu and Yuan Shao's uncle.

The Yuan family in Hebei has been passed down for four generations, and there have been three ministers, and Yuan Shao has always been proud.

His biological father Yuan Cheng died early, and Yuan Feng gave birth to his son Yuan Shu, who was very unfriendly with him.

Especially when Yuan Shao's power was strong, Yuan Shu was jealous and resentful, and often spread the word everywhere that he was not born by Yuan Feng.

Yuan Shu is to let the world know that he is the rightful fourth and third prince!

Often the words will change the taste, and later it was rumored that Yuan Shao was just a concubine.

As soon as the rumors came out, Yu Yuan Shao did not do much damage, but he suffered Yuan Xu and others.

The concubine was not treated well, Yuan Shao was upset because of the distraction of the concubine, and the situation of the concubine of the Yuan family can be imagined!

"Duke Yuan and the eldest son greet each other!" Entering the ancestral hall, the celebrant shouted in a long tone.

Yuan Shao was in front, Yuan Tan was in the back, kneeling facing the tablet.

"The ancestors and the ancestors are above, and the descendants of the unworthy will bow their heads and bow down." Yuan Shao knelt down and bowed three times, and then said: "Ancestor Mingjian, Your Majesty is now coerced by traitors, and Shao wants to crusade against traitors to save Your Majesty from fire and water. I hope that the ancestors will be blessed in the dark! (To be continued.) )
