If you want to be strong in your husband's family, your mother's family must be confident.
Just like Zhang Xiaosi, relying on the royal family, latecomers can come to the fore - within the jurisdiction of the Han Dynasty, who dares to let her be a concubine?
Of course, Zhang Xiaosi himself can be regarded as doing well and deserves the support of his family.
This also leads to the second condition. If your mother's family can't compare, you have to rely on yourself.
Just like General Guan.
Even if the royal family is shameless and can force people to divorce their wives, it is extremely difficult to get someone to divorce a general who conquered the east.
In particular, this general who conquered the east was willing to work for Green Leaf and silently help his husband train elites like the Liangzhou Army.
When she was needed, she led the army to annex the state, forcing the pseudo-Wei emperor to flee eastward in panic, and became famous in the Central Plains.
Any royal family who aspires to unify the world will not be able to win over such people no matter how hard they try.
Just like now, no matter how powerful the Queen is, when she sees General Zhengdong getting angry, she has to accompany him with a smile:
"Sister Guan is right. This marriage must be approved by both families."
"Didn't the Prime Minister act as a matchmaker for General Feng during his lifetime? And I heard that Sister Guan was also present at the time and nodded in agreement."
General Guan refused to give in and said calmly:
"I agree, but how to marry into the Feng family still needs to be discussed."
What happened to the queen's sister?
Then we can't overwhelm her in terms of marriage standards!
This is not just a matter of face, but also a matter of status.
"Feng Junhou's status is different now," the queen still smiled and looked at Feng Junhou, "right?"
Feng Junhou wiped the sweat from his forehead, it was so damn hot!
It’s okay not to mention this. But when he mentions this, General Guan becomes even more confident:
"What's different? When you married me, you were treated like a king. Now Alang is still a king. There's no difference."
After conquering Bingzhou and Guanzhong, Wei Yan's achievements were not as great as Alang's. He was already the Marquis of Wugong County. What about Alang?
He is still just a Marquis of Jiequanting. It doesn’t matter if he doesn’t get promoted. He has to be promoted, right?
Who would have expected that even being promoted to an official position was so cowardly that he was not even given the job of being a minister, but was given the job of being a minister.
This is so stingy, and you can tell at a glance that it was written by a woman.
How?
Now that I'm planning to marry your girl, I realize that the title is wrong?
If you have the ability, please give my family Alang the title of Duke!
Not promoted?
If you don't get promoted, you have to follow the rules honestly. What was the standard for marrying me back then? Zhang Xiaosi could only be equal to me at most, not even one point over!
Of course, if you really dare to let Alang be promoted to Duke, then Zhang Xiaosi's marriage standards are better than yours, so it is not beyond negotiation.
This is not because General Guan loves Feng Junhou too much and is willing to suffer injustice - of course, the love is still very loving - but she is making plans for her own children.
Because in the future, the person who inherits the title of Feng Mansion must be Ah Chong, if not Ah Chong, then Ah Shun. Anyway, it can only be the child of General Guan and Feng Junhou.
The other children in the family can share the property. Anyway, she has Feng's unique skills at the bottom of the box, so she is not afraid that her children will have no future.
But he must not get involved in the title left by Feng Junhou.
Because part of this title was earned by General Guan who personally led the army and achieved real results.
If the royal family doesn't care about face, then don't blame her for turning against her.
For this kind of thing, even if she breaks into the court to quarrel, she will be the one to take the blame - when the situation becomes urgent, I will put on the armor of General Zhengdong and go to court!
"Zhang Jiawen, Guan Jiawu", although it was a joke in the boudoir when they were not married, but now the tit-for-tat confrontation is full of firepower, which really makes Feng Junhou feel the aura of the two women back then.
Even himself and Xiaosi, who were involved, could only stand and watch silently.
The emperor, who should be the natural protagonist, only gave Feng Junhou a helpless look.
This made Feng Junhou feel very unhappy:
Take it when it's good for you, and hide when something goes wrong. Are you not a son of man?
You are the emperor of the Han family!
It's the emperor!
Can you show some emperor-like spirit at a critical moment?
Now, do you understand that you "don't look like a king"?
Perhaps sensing Feng Junhou's resentful look, Adou gave him another apologetic look, because he was also feeling miserable now.
If it were anything else, even if it was for the sake of his brother-in-law, he would definitely say a few words.
But regarding Siniang... the royal family could only support Siniang.
Is it a family matter? Of course, it only depends on the position, without distinction between right and wrong.
How much sacrifice has Siniang made for the royal family over the years?
Whether from the perspective of the royal family or from the perspective of the elder sister, is it wrong to fight for the interests of Siniang?
If I really put myself in the position of the tiger girl of the Guan family, it would make people wonder whether he, the emperor, is the head of the royal family?
Since the queen gave birth to the prince, her waist has become stronger and stronger.
In addition, she often gave advice to the emperor, which further increased her authority in the palace.
Not to mention that since the death of the prime minister, the emperor has taken over power externally and governed internally, and the status of the queen has continued to rise with the tide, rising to a higher level.
She was used to smooth sailing in the palace, coupled with the cheers just now on Chang'an Avenue and the excitement of the sisters meeting again after a long separation, the queen was a little excited.
Who would have expected that Feng Junhou would give him a soft nail first, and then Tiger Girl would hit back extremely forcefully, which made the somewhat hot-headed queen feel like a basin of cold water had been poured over her head.
Seeing the tiger girl's high fighting spirit, like a tigress protecting her territory, the queen was frightened, and then she smiled to herself, a little apologetically:
"I didn't think it through well. This matter really needs to be discussed in detail."
The queen took the initiative to take a step back, and Feng Junhou's worried heart returned to its original place. At the same time, he heard someone heaving a sigh of relief.
Xun Sheng looked around, but saw that the emperor was also looking over tacitly.
The two of them looked away at the same time in tacit agreement.
"But after standing here for so long, I can't help but want to see what the palace is like."
The queen smiled:
"When His Majesty said this, I was a little anxious and wanted to see what it was like inside."
"I'll lead the way." Zhang Xingyi was waiting here today, but it wasn't just for this. She took credit for it and said, "I'll personally take care of the rebuilding of Weiyang Palace!"
This is true.
After all, Feng Junhou only cares about the general direction, not the specific affairs, and he is always out on patrol.
Even though the engineering team was transferred from Nanxiang, the quality supervision of the project was still controlled by Zhang Xiaosi himself.
"Okay, okay! I will let you be the guide for today's trip to the palace."
After the queen finished speaking, she glanced at Feng Junhou again, and then at General Guan, "But it is Feng Junhou who is in charge of rebuilding Weiyang Palace, so Junhou will also lead the way, right?"
Although she took a step back, she is still the queen, and her face needs to be regained here.
It was a hot summer day, and Feng Junhou was wearing formal clothes. The underwear inside his clothes had already become wet, dry, and wet again.
After hearing the queen's words, he subconsciously wiped the sweat from his forehead.
At the same time, he began to glance at General Guan secretly.
General Guan, who originally thought he had won, turned livid again.
One win, one loss, or a draw!
Sure enough, she is still the Zhang family girl from back then.
Feng Junhou lamented in his heart, "It's so damn sad that Guan Guan is so sad!"
In the first round, he secretly sided with General Guan. In the second round, it seems that he can only agree to the queen.
Tianjia’s face is not just for slapping.
Of course, it doesn't matter if you get beaten - after all, this is not the barbaric era where "Qingfeng is illiterate".
But whether to slap Tianjia in the face or not depends on how much price it will cost and how much benefit it can get in return?
It depends on the price-performance ratio and whether it is worth it.
Like this time, Feng Junhou weighed the cost-effectiveness and made a decision quickly:
"The Queen has your destiny, how can you ever dare to disobey her?"
At worst, I would kneel down on the keyboard when I get home.
Oh, forgot there were no keyboards in this era.
That would be better and save trouble.
Just when the emperor of the Han Dynasty returned to the old capital and visited Weiyang Palace, there was another bustle in Luoyang, thousands of miles away.
The excitement was caused by the fact that Sima Shi, the son of the Taifu, married the Wu family, the daughter of Wu Zhi, the former Zhenwei general.
During the Jian'an period, Sima Yi, Chen Qun, Wu Zhi, and Zhu Shuo were either on good terms with Wei Crown Prince Cao Pi, or simply were Cao Pi's staff and think tanks, and were called Cao Pi's "four friends".
After Cao Pi became emperor, these four people were all reused and had extremely high status.
Wu Zhi, in particular, gave Cao Pi many suggestions and made great contributions to establishing Cao Pi's position as crown prince.
After Cao Pi usurped the Han Dynasty and proclaimed himself emperor, he immediately sent people non-stop to bring Wu Zhi to Luoyang, appointed him as Zhonglang General, and made him a marquis, allowing him to control the military affairs of various states.
A few years later, Wu Zhi returned from Hebei, and Cao Pi ordered the generals in the capital and the generals below Tejin to gather at Wu Zhi's house to celebrate him.
Because Cao Zhen is relatively fat, while Zhu Shuo, one of the four friends, is very thin.
When Wu Zhi was drunk, he deliberately asked the rapper to come up and make fun of him.
Cao Zhen, who was a general at the time, thought that he was an important member of the clan and was ashamed to be teased, so he angrily scolded Wu Zhi.
Unexpectedly, Wu Zhi stood up with his sword in hand and cursed Cao Zhen angrily.
Cao Zhen was humiliated, and Cao Pi had no reaction afterwards, which shows his favor for Wu Zhi.
As another "Four Friends", Chen Qun was also slandered by Wu Zhi.
When Cao Rui first ascended the throne, Wu Zhi stated to him his security plan:
Chen Qun, the Minister of Sikong, is a mediocre person, not a talented person of the country; he praised the hussar general Sima Yi for being loyal and resourceful, and a pillar of the country.
Cao Rui thought so.
Therefore, Cao Rui's four auxiliary ministers, Cao Zhen and Cao Xiu, were all clan relatives, so they were able to command troops outside.
And Sima Yi, as a non-clan relative, was actually able to lead the army to garrison Wancheng and supervise the military affairs of Jing and Hezhou.
Although Cao Rui's move was suspected of taking advantage of the central government's power, Sima Yi's power and influence far surpassed that of Chen Qun, but it was real.
Although Chen Qun was the only auxiliary minister who was not sent to Luoyang, and his status seemed to be high, Cao Rui believed that it would not affect his control of the court.
It can be seen that Wu Zhi's words did play a certain role.
It was precisely because Wu Zhi was arrogant and acted arrogantly because of his favor that he offended too many people. However, these people became the most powerful ministers of Cao Rui's dynasty after Cao Pi's death.
In addition, he always likes to make friends with powerful people and never interacts with the people in the countryside, so his reputation in his hometown is not good.
Therefore, after Wu Zhi's death, the people he had offended collectively counterattacked and gave him the name "Chou" and the posthumous title "Chou Hou".
As glorious as Wu Zhi was during his lifetime, how miserable his descendants were after his death - he was collectively suppressed by the powerful men in the DPRK, and his treatment was not bad.
Wu Zhi was not from an aristocratic family, and his family did not have a strong foundation. As soon as he died, his family fortune declined rapidly, and he was hated by the villagers.
Afterwards, the descendants could not even return to their hometown, and could only live in Luoyang relying on the family property accumulated by Wu Zhi during his lifetime.
In addition, his son Wu Ying once served as an official under Cao Pi. Although he had not been promoted for many years, he still had a meager salary to make ends meet.
Of course, more importantly, everyone is willing to give Sima Yi face.
At the same time, he also didn't want to bear the reputation of being a villain who dared not take revenge in person and only dared to use his power to bully his juniors.
However, although Wu Ying was burdened by his family and had a difficult life these years, he never gave up his efforts to change his family's posthumous title.
He wrote to the court countless times and tried his best to visit various enemies, during which he received countless looks.
But he never backed down or got discouraged. If he failed once, he would try again.
As the saying goes, things are impermanent.
Wu Zhi's descendants were suppressed due to Wu Zhi's involvement, and now they are in the eyes of the people of Luoyang again because of Wu Zhi's favor?
The Taifu was favored by Wu Zhi in front of the emperor, and now the Taifu's son, not knowing whether to repay the favor, wants to marry Wu Zhi's daughter.
The senior ministers of Wei State, headed by Cao Zhen, who advocated giving Wu Zhie the posthumous title, have gradually died over the years.
Coupled with Wu Ying's unyielding determination, people can't help but sigh that this man's filial piety is rare in the world.
Even people who have a bad feeling for Wu Zhi have to admit that Wu Zhi gave birth to a good son.
In this case, Master Sima married Wu as his wife, not only was he not burdened by Wu Zhi's reputation.
On the contrary, many people felt that the Taifu was indeed a person who valued affection and righteousness.
He can still do this to the descendants of his old friends who have passed away, and how much he values the friendship of his old friends!
The news that Master Sima was marrying Wu's daughter had already reached Xuchang in advance.
After all, the Taifu is a veteran of four dynasties and has many old friends in the court. Although there is no need for them to come to congratulate in person, it is normal to send their descendants to come.
Even if he didn't send it, Sima Master, as a nephew and nephew, still had to tell these uncles.
After receiving the wedding invitation, many veterans in Xuchang had complicated moods.
I don’t know who’s yard, but someone cursed hatefully:
"Cao Shuang is a rat. Of the three dogs in Taichung, the most ruthless one is Bo Liang. Compared to the Taifu, he is nothing like a hair on his head!"
