People will always leave some traces when they live in the world. No matter what kind of person they are, whether they live well or poorly, they will always leave footprints on their own life and some interactions with others.
Even if it is an orphan who has fled famine since childhood, if you really want to check it, you will never get a blank. You will always find some traces of his life before fleeing famine. These contexts can be "heard" or "witnessed". In short, there are traces to follow.
Xuanqingwei is not an ordinary yamen. The powers and functions involved are complicated. Moreover, it is the emperor's personal soldier, so its status is different from other places in the system.
Especially for the senior officials in the Xuanqing Guard, it is a fixed process to trace their ancestors back three generations, and some positions can go back five or six generations.
Therefore, despite the fact that Shen Hao seems to have had no dangers along the way, he has always relied on his ability and luck to overcome obstacles. At a young age, he has already risen from the fourth rank to take charge of the national black flag camp and has become a powerful leader. But behind the scenes, the investigation into his identity has never stopped, and is even getting deeper and deeper.
Originally an orphan, he actually had a better background in Xuanqing Guard, because he would have fewer ties to it, and he would pay more attention to Xuanqing Guard's own interests when doing things and not be affected by so-called emotions from outside.
There are even many orphans in the Xuanqing Guard. They have been trained by the Xuanqing Guard since they were young. They are the most loyal and have the purest foundation.
Therefore, Shen Hao also took advantage of being an "orphan" at the beginning, otherwise he would probably have difficulty even reaching the position of a small flag officer, let alone have the opportunity to rise all the way up in the future.
But luck and misfortune, many times the identity changes with time. The "orphan" status that was very advantageous in the past may not be able to take advantage in the future. Firstly, senior officials need people to push and pull, and orphans have no connections and naturally lack a hand to climb up; secondly, Shen Hao, the "orphan" is not a real orphan, so many things will cause problems once you dig deeper, and once the identity issue arises, If someone catches you, your head will be lost.
This is not just a "feeling", but someone has hinted to Shen Hao several times.
First, Tang Qingyuan, who was Shen Hao's first superior, asked him in a subtle way, "Are there any relatives at home? If there are any, please identify them and keep in touch with them more in the future."
Then Jiang Cheng also hinted at Shen Hao twice.
Only when you have a home and room can you be stable. Only a big family will have scruples when making some decisions. This requirement is particularly important for people in high positions, but the reverse is true for people at the middle and lower levels.
There is no doubt that Shen Hao now belongs to the "high and powerful position", otherwise the emperor would not directly use his "imperial order" status to beat him in the reward. It was precisely for this reason that he had the necessary need to get married.
But Shen Hao also understood that this was not enough. Because his past is really blank. If no trace is found, trouble will follow.
But this problem belongs to Shen Hao's blind spot. He has never thought of a perfect solution that can be solved without being noticed, so he can only delay it. It wasn't until the two brothers and sisters who called themselves Shen Wanjun and Shen Wanhui came to his house from Xin Liangcheng in Jingzhong that they thought of a solution.
I have seen many liars like Shen Hao, but I have only seen liars like Shen Wanjun and Shen Wanhui in my life.
If Shen Hao were to give these two scammers one comment, it would be: professional!
The scammers Shen Hao encountered before all used words or some deceptive tricks to make your mind fall into the trap they prepared in advance, and then defrauded your trust. Commonly known as "brainwashing".
Shen Wanjun and Shen Wanhui have entered the advanced stage of liars. They will not try their best to confuse your thinking and brainwash you. Instead, they will start from themselves and change themselves and everything around them into what you imagine. , allowing you to naturally form a positive judgment, thereby achieving the purpose of deceiving you.
No, this kind of deception is actually not that the scammer is deceiving you, but that you are being deceived by yourself.
According to what these two swindlers said, they were also fleeing when Shen Hao's family was fleeing famine, but they were rescued by Zhuangzi, a wealthy local who distributed relief before they had escaped far. At that time, Jingzhong was in chaos, and he was separated from Shen Hao's family. I always thought that Shen Hao and the others had fled elsewhere or had encountered misfortune.
Moreover, after the famine passed, "Uncle's" lineage had some improvement. Although he was not very rich, he also made some family fortune, so he sent people to the surrounding big cities to look for Shen Hao's family, but there was no news about them. I didn't expect that Shen Hao's family would go to distant Jingxi. So the news stopped.
Later, when the soldiers of Xuanqing Guard came to the door, they found out that Shen Hao, a member of the family, was still alive in Fengri City, so he hurriedly came to visit.
Shen Hao remembered the scene that day deeply. Both of them gave actor- and actress-level performances. They cried very restrainedly and laughed very restrainedly. They were as excited as if their loved ones had survived the catastrophe and were able to recognize each other, but they were also a little embarrassed due to Shen Hao's identity. This alone is beyond the reach of ordinary scammers.
Shen Hao has a complete record of these things in his hand. It was sent here by the commander's Yamen, saying it was out of concern. The commander's Yamen had been helping him find his lost relatives. After years of hard work, he finally found something, and it was initially confirmed that the other party was Uncle Shen Hao's "Shen Wentian". That lineage is also the only lineage that Shen Hao's relatives still have.
In the record sent by the commanding officer, the tone of every word was as if he was asking for credit, as if he had done Shen Hao a big favor. At first, Shen Hao almost laughed out loud. This group of commanders and commanders were fooled and still felt complacent after being fooled. They were really trash.
Even Shen Hao can deduce how the commander deceived the spies of the Yamen: he searched everywhere for clues about Shen Hao's life experience, and the news inevitably leaked over time; after being informed by a group of professional liars, he began to prepare secretly, disguise himself and change himself , the target is the "memories" released by Shen Hao about his relatives, and strive to make himself look like the relatives that Shen Hao said.
Finally, they find a coincidental way to appear in the sight of the commander's Yamen spies, and then the pre-made disguise will be regarded as "fact", and they can "passively" become Shen Hao's relatives, or the Yamen will personally authenticate it. kind of.
In addition, the scammers relied on the fact that Shen Hao was young and had incomplete memory when he "escaped". They bullied Shen Hao and did not remember the past clearly.
So this is how this family of relatives came to be. Although it was uncomfortable to be treated as a fool, for Shen Hao, it actually solved a big trouble for him.
However, I'm afraid this relative still has something to ask for, otherwise he wouldn't have spent so much effort to find him.
