Liu Bu felt that this matter was a great event. He couldn't think of an appropriate way unless he used violence. However, he was surprised to hear his father's tone that there was a peaceful way to solve this matter.
Liu Bu said to him, "I have to ask my father. What clever plan can reverse the disadvantage?"
Liu Yuanqiao said: "there is an old saying, it is called non-Chinese, and its heart must be different. These Chinese officials in the dynasty always taboo our Liu family. This is because our Liu family is born as a businessman. Even as a father, they are also born in the Imperial College. If it is an authentic Jinshi family, our Liu family has such great power, and they will not suspect it."
Liu Buhe said: "there is no way to do this. The origin of our Liu family is like this. No one can change it. I also want to state that the princes are kind. Even the most noble royal family today were not beggars and monks more than 200 years ago?"
Although Liu Bu said so, he understood that in today's world, the views on birth, family status and descent are still very important. Especially in officialdom, everything pays attention to seniority and origin. Why are they unanimously excluded by civil servants? Because their family is not civil servants, they are of different origins, People like them are naturally excluded and suppressed by the whole civil service group. This is called non-Chinese, and their hearts must be different.
Of course, even if they are civil servants, they will eventually fall into party strife. There are often struggles among ministers for power and profit.
This is also an unsolved problem for the Liu family. He doesn't know what to do. He won't let him take the Jinshi examination again? Even if you can pass the exam, it's too late, isn't it?
Liu Yuanqiao said, "my father has come up with a good idea, that is, marriage with the Confucius government can solve this problem."
to unite to marriage!
Liu Bu felt a little strange when he heard it. What's the marriage law? Liu Bu didn't react quickly enough. He thought about it before he remembered the reason. Now it seems that his father is the only one in line with the marriage in the whole family, which surprised him.
Unexpectedly, Liu Yuanqiao, the eight faced Buddha, threw himself out for the fame and wealth of his family.
Liu Bu said in surprise, "marriage! Father! You."
According to the current situation of the Liu family, the person who implements the marriage policy must be his father, because his father is nominally single. Although he has a concubine room with three rooms, the main room is empty, while Liu Bu has a main room. Let alone that he married openly, the strong strength of the Zheng family does not allow him to have any ideas, and Liu Bu has such a wife Xiannei help, he is also very satisfied. He has no other ideas, so it seems that only his father can implement the marriage policy like this.
Without changing his face, Liu Yuanqiao said without Shyness: "it is my father who has decided to marry the eldest lady of Kong Jiayan on the 15th of this month."
I see. Liu Bu was wondering why his father called himself back. It was strange, but no one said. He didn't dare to say these people. Can he say that to him? Congratulations on your mother.
Liu Bu was a little surprised. He said, "father, which daughter will you marry?"
Liu Yuanqiao said, "being a father has become consistent with Yan shenggongda, that is, he will marry Miss Kong with the gift of being a wife."
It turned out to be a marriage with the Confucius family. There were four families in Shandong before, Kong mengyan once, and now the most powerful are the king De's house, the king Lu's house, the Confucius house and the Liu family.
In fact, the two royal houses rank first because they are members of the royal family and respect the status of vassal kings. However, in terms of their status in history, no one can compare with the Confucius family. They are the real Millennium family and unparalleled clan. Such families are very rare even in the world. Liu Yuanqiao wants to marry people, except the royal family, This is the best choice.
This is a hereditary aristocrat who transcends the change of dynasties and the change of rivers and mountains.
As early as after the unification of the six kingdoms by the Qin Dynasty, when the first emperor toured the counties in the East, he specially granted Confucius' ninth generation sun Kongdi as the Wen Tongjun of Lu. Wen Tongjun was only an honorary title, not a special title for sacrificing Confucius. However, the first emperor set a precedent for rewarding Confucius' direct descendants.
In the period of emperor yuan of the Han Dynasty, emperor yuan of the Han Dynasty appointed Kong Ba, the 13th generation grandson of Confucius, as a grand master, and granted him a marquis in the pass. There were 800 families in the Food City, with the name of praising Cheng Jun. Confucius was worshipped in the food City, which was also the beginning of the hereditary title worship of the descendants of Confucius.
In the Northern Song Dynasty, in order to prevent the tradition of military separatism and disorderly government since the middle of the Tang Dynasty, the Northern Song court began to vigorously implement the policy of advocating culture and restraining military forces. Under this background, song Renzong officially granted Confucius's 46th generation grandson Confucius, who was willing to be Duke Yan. Since then, Duke Yan has been granted the title of Duke Yan throughout the Northern Song Dynasty, Jin Dynasty, Southern Song Dynasty, yuan and Ming Dynasty, which has continued for 16 dynasties It has been circulating for more than 400 years.
In the Song Dynasty, Yan Shenggong was equivalent to the eighth grade official, and was promoted to the third grade in the Yuan Dynasty. In the early Ming Dynasty, he was a first-class civil official, and later ranked first among the civil officials. The Yan Shenggong residence, which was inhabited by Yan Shenggong in previous dynasties, was the largest house in the country, second only to the imperial palace of the Ming and Qing Dynasties. As an aristocratic family that has been knighted, Confucius's lineal family has been distinguished and respected since ancient times.
The status of the Kongs is unmatched in Shandong. It can be said that in Qufu, Shandong, many people say that there is no village without holes and no seat without holes. The influence of the Kongs has penetrated into all aspects and extended to the whole Shandong. Although there are four families in Shandong, the latter are inferior to him in terms of shoes, because they have been rich for thousands of years, It is not your short-term prosperity that can be compared, the details of the Millennium family, and it is not what you newcomers can compare.
The so-called four people actually boast a little. Generally speaking, the four people in Shandong are generally two royal families, followed by the Kong family and the Meng family. However, the Liu family has developed very fast recently. It has penetrated very fast in both economic and military aspects. In addition, Liu Yuanqiao has consciously carried out publicity, so he crowded into the four people.
Now, after living alone for more than ten years, Liu Yuanqiao finally chose to marry Miss Kong. In the eyes of many people, this is a combination of strength and strength, which is reasonable, because the Liu family is rich and expensive now, but compared with these old families, it is a few blocks away. It can only be regarded as a nouveau riche, lacking the noble spirit and inside information from the heart.
But they chose to marry the Kong family. Liu Bu was a little surprised. His father was born in Dinghai in the 15th year of Wanli. Now he is almost 50 years old.
Kong Yinzhi, the 65th generation of Saint Yangong, was born in Gengchen in the 18th year of Wanli. His word is opposite to Huan and his name is maojia. Xizong attacked Saint Yangong in the first year of Tianqi, added crown prince Taibao in the seventh year of Tianqi, and crown prince Fu of Jin in the third year of Chongzhen. It seems that his father is three years older than this Saint Yangong, Miss Kong, the eldest daughter of Yan Shenggong, was born in the 46th year of Wanli. Now she is only in her early 20s. She is still a few years younger than herself. Her father actually married her as a regular wife and became his stepmother. Liu Bu felt embarrassed and wanted to die.
But here he had to admire his father's self-restraint. He took the initiative to say such a thing, but he looked calm without any anxiety and change, just like saying something that had nothing to do with himself.
For the Confucius family, people today are like spiritual beliefs. They are not under the royal family. Even if they are the spiritual totem of the whole people, it is the so-called heaven does not give birth to Confucius saints, and the night lasts forever. However, Liu Bu's impression of him is not good, which stems from the suppression and negative evaluation of the Confucius family in later generations. What are the two ministers of the twenty-five dynasties and the family slaves of the seventy-five generations, However, the Kong family in this era is a top tycoon, which is not comparable to the rising star of the Liu family. Liu Bu is wondering why the Kong family would marry his eldest daughter to an old man older than his father?
Liu Yuanqiao is almost 50 years old. He is already an old man of this era. Although he is strong and looks like 30 or 40 people, he is already an old man.
As for this miss Kong, she is a famous person in Shandong. Why do you say so? This is because the Kong family has never had much contact with the official family. Soon after their birth, their eldest daughter married a poetic family in Texas. The two families have been married for generations and are also close relatives.
However, the eldest lady had a bad life. When she made an appointment and set a date for marriage and was ready to marry, the bridegroom died of an acute illness. She became a widowed lookout.
Although you can remarry and remarry without going through the door and becoming a lookout, with the reputation and high status of the Kong family, if you remarry, it will affect the reputation of the Kong family. You should know that they are the benchmark of morality in the world and the authenticity of people's faith. You can't do anything that violates contemporary ethical and moral standards.
Therefore, forced by the helpless choice, this delicate and incomparably precious Miss Kong, born with a golden key, has become a waiting girl and a waiting girl to be married. If there is no accident, she should be so lonely and old for life, because the status and ethics of the Kong family do not allow her to remarry. If she marries again, the face of the Kong family will be ugly, and she will become a victim.
Liu Bu wondered why his father could marry this eldest miss of the Kong family? How did he persuade Sheng Yangong of the Confucius family to marry his daughter to Liu Yuanqiao, who was three years older than Sheng Yangong, without fear of the criticism and ridicule of the world?
Liu Yuanqiao is a famous strongman in the world, but it is also true that he is approaching his twilight years.
