Chapter 204: Ancestral Training Harms People
ยทยท Listening to my mother talk about the Xiao family's Taiyue Ye following Emperor Taizu to build a genealogy, there was one thing that was difficult, and the eldest lord asked with JL:
"What will make Grandpa Tai embarrassed"
"It is the status of wife and concubine, both sisters have a deep affection for him, regardless of each other, but there is only one position of the wife on the genealogy, and the concubine can enter the genealogy unless she gives birth to a man, and the mother is more valuable than the son, so she can enter the genealogy, and if you want to establish a genealogy, you must have two people
The division of wives and concubines, one is the eldest daughter, the other is the daughter-in-law, who is the wife, it has become a problem, after thinking for a long time, and finally decided that the concubine is always noble, not to mention that Lu Yuan had two sons at that time, and Lu Yao only had one daughter (small book), which
Knowing the difference between this thought and planting the root of the bane"
"Bane? Lu Yao and Grandpa Tai had a quarrel because of this and were expelled from the Xiao family? โ
"It would be good if that was the case, when the great grandfather set up Lu Yuan as his wife, he promised Lu Yao that although he was nominally a concubine, in private, he still treated her as a wife, and their sisters were still the same as before, on an equal footing in the inner house, after all
They all came over in troubled times, and their feelings were deep, but they were just a name, Lu Yao didn't mind, and happily accepted the proposal of the grandfather, and then the grandmother Lu Yuan really kept her promise and kept her sister Lu Yao
Servant, treat her wholeheartedly. โ
The old lady said this, took the tea handed by the waiter, took a sip, and the eldest lord couldn't help but ask:
The old lady glanced at him, and then exclaimed:
Although the two are equal in the inner house, but the identity of the wife and concubine, like the difference between cloud and mud, after a long time, the identity will naturally be revealed, at the beginning of the founding of the country, there are not so many rituals in the court, Emperor Taizu often feasted
Ministers, the mansion of the great grandfather is also constantly flowing, but no matter how well the great grandfather treats Lu Yao in private, he is nominally a concubine after all, and in front of foreign guests, he can only stand, but his sister Lu Yuan can sit with the great grandfather, and even some palaces
The feast, she is not qualified to participate, she hates it for a long time, thinking that she will follow her grandfather and give him advice, and the credit is far greater than that of her sister, just because this concubine was born, and finally became a maid!" The old lady said this. Phlegm in the mouth
gas, and continued:
Since ancient times, it has been a disaster caused by this boundless desire, Lu Yao watched his sister be sent with his grandfather every day, and his heart gradually became unbalanced, so he gave birth to the idea of getting rid of her, after all, he was strategic, and his scheming was deep, Lu
Yao knew that his sister was a martial artist, and he was born and died with his grandfather, and he saved his life several times, and his grandfather would not suspect her easily, at that time, Lu Yao had just given birth to a baby girl, and it was less than three months, and after arranging everything, Lu Yao killed himself with his own hands
My daughter"
When the eldest lord heard this, he stood up and said in shock:
"Killed your own daughter with your own hands! Tiger poison doesn't eat children, why is Lu Yao's mind so vicious?"
Glancing at the old man, the old lady said:
"I think no one in this world will believe it, (small book nest) there is such a vicious mother in the world, and the grandfather is also because he does not believe it, which caused the later tragedy, the eldest master sat down first, listen to me in detail"
Seeing the eldest man sitting down, the old lady continued:
"My daughter died, my grandfather investigated the reason, only Lu Yao and Lu Yuan had contact with her before my daughter's death, all the evidence pointed to Lu Yuan, listening to Lu Yao's grief-stricken cry, my grandfather didn't believe that Lu Yao could kill his own daughter,
decided that Lu Yuan was jealous of him and secretly favored Lu Yao more, and he was a killer, hating it in his heart, not listening to Lu Yuan's explanation, and directly ordering Lu Yuan to be executed.
"Grandma Taizu was executed by Grandpa Tai!"
At the moment of the servant's execution, I saw the resentful eyes of my grandmother, and thought that she was born and died with herself, and saved herself several times, but she finally couldn't let go of the husband and wife relationship for many years, and she couldn't do it, so she beat Lu Yuan into a pure heart
An, vowing never to see her again in his life. At that time, the country had just been founded, and there was no saying that concubines could not be wives, so Lu Yao was righted naturally, and after Lu Yao was corrected, he was worried about his sister's resurrection, and he had many relatives to secretly kill him, but his sister's martial arts were superb, one
didn't succeed, Lu Yuan collected evidence of Lu Yao's assassination of her, but because of Lu Yao's obstruction in every possible way, and the oath of the grandfather, he couldn't see the grandfather, he couldn't avenge himself, and he ended up depressed. Grandma Taizu died far away
Later, the grandfather finally remembered the knot, broke the oath, and went to hang her, and the personal maid of the grandmother saw that the grandfather came to pay tribute, and desperately handed over the evidence and suicide note collected by the grandmother to the grandfather."
"Based on these alone, will Grandpa Tai believe that Grandma Tai is wronged?"
"As the saying goes, a young man will die, and his words are also sad, seeing the bloody and tearful suicide note of the grandmother, the grandfather finally believed a little, but he didn't dare to believe it all, for fear that Lu Yuan would accumulate resentment and hatred, and he didn't want Lu Yao to live in peace after death
It was a deliberate plan to plot a female ghost to ask for grievances, and Lu Yao finally admitted his crime in front of the pretending female ghost. Faced with the bloody facts, Grandpa Tai was full of remorse and immediately executed Lu Yao. โ
"Grandpa Tai set up an ancestral precept for this"
"After the execution of Lu Yao, the grandfather often regretted that if there was a law that stipulated that the concubine could not be his wife, and Lu Yao's heart would not be ruined, there would be no family disaster today.
Before he died, he helped Lu Yuan's youngest son to succeed the head of the family, and personally removed Lu Yao's name from the family tree, and all the children born to Lu Yao passed to Lu Yuan's name. Afraid that his tragedy would be repeated in his children and grandchildren, he left a suicide note, except for his children and grandchildren
After his death, he was buried with Lu Yuan. He also wrote that the daughter of the concubine had a humble status, a noble bloodline, a vicious mind, and finally could not bear the earthenware, leaving the ancestral training that the wife of the head of the Xiao family must be the daughter-in-law. โ
After hearing this, the eldest man couldn't help but sigh secretly:
I think it is because the grandfather was hurt by love in his later years, his temperament changed greatly, and it is inevitable that he will be a little extreme, the quality of a person's temperament, the bloodline is important, but it can't always be biased to cover the whole, generalize, think about Lu Yao, but also because he was born in chaos
In this peaceful and prosperous world, there are a few people who can be ruthless enough to use their own flesh and blood as ears to fight opponents, and the grandfather is too sad, and in a thought, he set up an ancestral motto, saying that he is afraid that future generations will follow his old path,
But I don't know how many people in future generations are burdened by the love of the ancestors, and he and Jun'er are deeply affected.
After being silent for a long time, he sighed and said:
"Although Xi'er is a concubine, she is smart and virtuous, graceful and generous, she is really a good daughter-in-law, not to mention Jun'er, it is me, and I can't bear to leave her in court. Zu Xun, Zu Xun..."
The words "ancestral training harms others" are unspeakable, after all, they are their own ancestors, how can they speak lightly about right and wrong.
The old lady didn't understand anything, and sighed:
"What the eldest master said is, don't say anything else, just talk about Xi'er's grace and open-mindedness, which is worse than when I was young, I can often see my shadow in her, in the past two years, how many times have I divorced her from the court,
In the end, they all gave up, although it was for Jun'er, but they were also reluctant, hey, it's just that the ancestral training is difficult to disobey. โ
"Mother, do you really want Xi'er to go to church this time?"
The eldest lord asked with some patience.
"At the beginning of the thought, it has been a big mistake, and I can't make mistakes again and again, otherwise, what face will I have to see my ancestors and ancestors; Palm said, long pain is better than short pain, now that the matter has been revealed, today, Mengxi must go down to the court!"
Listening to his mother's resolute words, the eldest man's expression darkened, and his lips squirmed, but he did not make a sound.
In the silence, the waiter hurriedly pushed her in, the old lady was stunned, she had ordered no one to come in and disturb, and was about to have a seizure, only to see the waiter painting lightly blessed, and said:
"Back to the old lady, the second master fainted in the family ancestral hall, his whole body was hot, and he didn't wake up."
When the old lady heard this, she sat up straight, and the eldest man also stood up and asked:
"Back to the eldest master, the second master is being punished, and the minions didn't dare to make their own claims, so they hurried over and asked you to show me."
"People are all faint, don't bring them back quickly, they're all brainless!"
When the old lady heard this, she immediately scolded. The waiter hurriedly answered, turned around and ran out. After all, it was father and son, only to hear the old man shout:
"Someone, please ask the doctor, prepare a sedan chair"
The second master fainted and was sent back in the family ancestral hall, Xiao Xiangyuan immediately became a pot of porridge, Hongzhu saw that the second master was hot, his limbs were stiff, and his tears came down immediately, and he had no idea under the shock, and the little maids panicked when they saw Hongzhu
God, even more chaotic, like a swarm of headless flies, went round and round the hall.
Compared with the upper room that is messed up into a pot of porridge, the east chamber is extraordinarily quiet, Mengxi is writing big characters one by one, it's not that the news of the second master's coma has not reached the east chamber, but in Mengxi, the second master is just kneeling for a long time
, can't die, palm said: If you don't be a ruthless person, it will be difficult to become a man, at this time, she must ruthlessly ignore the second master and cut off his fate.
Looking at the unusually calm second grandmother, Zhidong looked anxious, turned her head to look at Zhixia, she stood aside as if she was fine, rubbed her hands, rubbed again, and finally couldn't help it, knelt on the ground with a plop, and said:
"The second grandmother should save the second master, the slave guesses that only you can save him!"
Seeing Zhidong like this, Mengxi was stunned, put down the pen in his hand, and looked at her silently.
Seeing the second grandmother raise her head, Zhidong breathed a sigh of relief, and then said:
"When the slave went to the room to inquire about the news, she saw the symptoms of the second master, and the slave's father was exactly the same as before his death
The next afternoon, my father began to feel hot all over my body, his arms were stiff, and he had convulsions
Some decoction, after listening to the doctor's words, my mother was also relieved, who knows, the quack doctor mistook people, used medicine, Daddy's illness was not only not strong, but it became more and more serious, and he died in less than ten days before and after
It is a seven-day wind, and there is no cure. โ
Seven days wind! Mengxi listened to it and frowned, the seven-day wind is called tetanus in modern times, and it is not 100% curable in modern times, not to mention this medically backward ancient times.
No, it's such a coincidence, you will get tetanus if you kneel all night!
