If you put it this way, Emperor Taizu was supporting his own children for others in vain, and it seemed that he was at a disadvantage. In the end, he thought that King Yan was his son, and made a son who was not his son the king.
But looking at the long-term goal, Taizu did not suffer a loss. After all, the people of King Yan's lineage have been diligently guarding Northern Xinjiang for hundreds of years and did not allow foreigners to invade. For this reason, the people of King Yan's lineage
Almost all of his sons died on the battlefield, and they were considered worthy of the founding emperor.
King Yan changed his surname after he ascended the throne, but still ordered to protect the imperial mausoleums of the previous dynasty. He even went to pay homage to the founding emperor of the previous dynasty without saying anything more. The royal members of the previous dynasty were basically extinct.
, because the last emperor killed the members of the royal family in the capital before he died. Later, the rest of the surviving people did not know where they went during the turmoil.
After King Yan ascended the throne, he found a person with royal blood and named him a Marquis. When he later talked about this with Shiba Niang, he sighed very much, thinking that Emperor Taizu was a great leader and established a huge dynasty.
, only a few hundred years have passed and it has become like this, with children and grandchildren reduced to beggars.
In the process of ascending to the throne step by step, he also learned from first-hand information how the family rules of Prince Yan's Mansion came about. It turned out that the concubine who gave birth to Prince Yan said: The reason why Taizu was born less than five years after he ascended the throne.
The main reason why he died at a young age was that Emperor Taizu was too fond of women, otherwise he would have lived longer.
After the first generation King Yan learned the news, he set a rule for the men in the family: they were not allowed to hook up with women outside, and they did not need too many women around them. If the offspring were disobedient, they would be abandoned by the King of Yan. This was absolutely not allowed.
Became the heir to King Yan.
After generations of this, the King of Yan naturally had no interest in the three palaces and six courtyards. When building the palace, he deliberately reduced the area. He had no intention of building so many palaces. After fighting for such a long time, he still let the people recuperate.
.
He entered the palace with his wife, and also brought their children into the palace. Of course, the adult children had been entrusted and left the palace. After some time of adaptation, the capital was finally at peace.
The Tao family has entered the ranks of high-ranking officials, and Saburo and Goro have made great achievements in their respective fields over the past few years and received titles. However, the two of them keep a low profile because they know that the so-called glory and wealth may be fleeting.
The reason why I say this is because I know that few of the once powerful dignitaries in the capital can survive. Most of them fell down due to various reasons during the overlapping of political powers. Some were completely abolished, but some are still alive.
But the glory is no longer the same, and it is rare to see members of the big family of the previous dynasty in the new dynasty.
After knowing about it, Sanlang Wulang recorded all these things, so that their children would not only enjoy blessings but not endure sufferings. They did not want their children to become masters, but they wanted them to remember the Tao family's experience. Sometimes a person
The malice of outsiders will destroy the entire family.
Who would have thought that the Tao family, a large family, was not destroyed because of the emperor's order, but because someone wanted revenge after he thought he had seen through the truth. Therefore, sometimes it is taboo to put eggs in one basket, and all family members gather together at one time.
The result is that he is tricked by others.
In addition to the lessons of the Tao family, there are also some problems that can be learned from the extinction of other large families. If these problems are solved, the Tao family can escape and avoid extinction.
Saburo Goro has not been very pushy since he entered the capital. The Tao family is the most low-key family. Suddenly someone came to the door. At first, Saburo Goro was a little surprised when he saw the invitation, but finally decided to take a look.
Speaking of which, the Tao family basically had no relatives and friends after the Tao family's fall, but after the establishment of the new dynasty, they still contacted a few people, but at most they had the most ordinary relationship. The person on this post said they were from their maternal side.
Relatives have something urgent to do this time and want to see their two brothers.
When the two of them arrived, it was a small tea shop. It didn't look luxurious, it was just a small shop, but there was a place dedicated to tea tasting, and it could be seen that the people here had a certain quality.
After being brought in, they found that the person sitting there sipping tea in the distance was a woman. The two of them were not surprised. With a very capable sister, they would not look down on women, and women were also very powerful.
But they didn't seem to know this person, so why did they have to find them? The two people looked at each other and shook their heads slightly at the same time. They knew that the other person didn't know who this person was.
When they got closer, they found that this woman was not young, because her hair was already gray, which meant that she was not very young, but it could be seen that she was well educated. She was sitting with her back to them.
There, you can see the graceful posture.
"Twelve mothers, Sanlang and Wulang of the Tao family have arrived." Someone reported, and after hearing the voice, she stood up, raised her head and looked towards the door, and saw Sanlang and Wulang looking at the woman with some curiosity.
She looked at the two of them. Speaking of them, Sanlang was mainly engaged in research work, but he had to go out often, so his skin was naturally not very fair. As for Wulang, he was more in the military, and his temperament and actions were in the military. He was not the best in her mind.
Good look.
When she looked at the two brothers, Brother Wulang was naturally also looking at her. It could be seen that this man had once been rich and noble. This could be seen from his temperament. Wulang recognized that the clothes were once good, but they were all old.
The fashionable appearance of the court seems a bit strange now.
Saburo, on the other hand, couldn't tell what was fashionable or not, but he could tell that the fabric had turned a little white because it had been washed many times. Natural dyes tend to fade easily.
Why do rich people often wear new clothes? Not only to show their wealth, but also because after washing the clothes for a few times, they will find that the clothes fade very much, the color is very dull, and they become unsightly, so they naturally need to change their clothes.
wear.
Some people even wear new clothes only once and have to change into new clothes when they go out again. This is the same as the brand-name clothes of later generations. They are only worn once and will not be worn again. There is no such thing as washing and wearing again.
As the customer service of a certain brand of clothes said: Our products have never been thought of how to clean them. Whether it is washing or dry cleaning, we do not recommend it. Therefore, some people pick up brand-name clothes from the trash can because brand-name clothes are disposable consumables.
, throw it away after wearing it.
This is an operation that belongs to wealthy people, but if ordinary people can't even eat, they must not spend money on clothes. A piece of clothing can be worn many times, and such people will not wear silk and satin.
I mainly choose clothes such as linen and cotton, which I wear again and again. Many poor people’s clothes are patched one after another, barely covering the body.
The woman in front of me is wearing clothes made of silk and satin, but the color will inevitably fade after being washed many times. Wearing such white-looking clothes can tell that the situation is really not good.
Look at the hairpin on this woman's head. It is also a jade hairpin of poor quality. But looking at her demeanor when she is sitting there and her stance after standing up, you will find that she is a well-educated noblewoman.
It's just that he is obviously depressed now.
Saburo Goro didn't want to look down on this person. If it hadn't been for Sister's decisive action back then, the two brothers would have lived worse than this person. They didn't know where they went, or they might have died somewhere early.
.
After they grew up, Sister A told them all the situation of the Tao family, and they realized that on the way to escape, there were still people who wanted to plot against the Tao family. Fortunately, they were discovered early, so no harm was caused.
.
When they fled, they had a pair of evil servants, mother and daughter, with them. They were also accompanied by slaves who had a good relationship with them. If Sister couldn't handle it, I'm afraid the master would look at the slave's face.
As long as I have my sister, everything will be safe and sound.
After knowing this, the two brothers will no longer despise the people at the bottom. You have to know that one of them actually wants to sell them! The weak ones will become slaves, but there is no adult to rescue them. Their lives will be absolutely
What would happen? They were terrified when they thought about it.
I have to admit one thing, my parents were both very good people at the time, and they did not teach me anything just because my sister was a girl. The children of the Tao family, regardless of gender, must be well educated in the future. The person who will benefit in the end is myself.
After seeing Saburo and Goro clearly, the woman felt extremely pleasantly surprised. She finally settled down during this period of time and spent a lot of effort to send the post. She didn't know if they would come, so she was very happy to see them now.
"Sanlang, Wulang, hello, long time no see." Looking at these two new upstarts, she felt a little annoyed. She should have shown kindness in the first place instead of giving up as soon as she said it. It was a pity.
"Who is this lady?" Sanlang asked, but Wulang didn't say anything. He could see that the woman was filled with great joy when she saw them. Judging from the tone of her voice, it was as if she was between them.
Very familiar.
Now that he has seen the other person's appearance clearly, he doesn't know why he looks familiar, but he doesn't know why there is no deep impression in his memory.
"Me?" When the other party heard this question, tears welled up in her eyes. She rubbed the Supa in her hand with her fingers helplessly. Afterwards, she wiped her eyes with the handkerchief and said, "Sanlang, Wulang, I am
Your sister."
When he heard this, Wulang glanced at her, Sister? What Sister? Her sister is still very young, even younger than them. How could she be like this?
Just when he was about to talk nonsense, he suddenly remembered something: the twelfth mother of the Hou family looked very similar to his own sister. Only then did he suddenly realize that it was so, and he suddenly understood.
He glanced at Sanlang and said: "She was originally the twelve-niang sister of the Hou Mansion. Brother, do you still remember? It is said that she looked the same as my sister when she was young. We and my sister visited her once before."
The two brothers had met this woman before, but later they found that their views were completely different, so they drifted apart. Unexpectedly, they didn't expect to see her now that she was so old, and they didn't miss her at all.
But the two brothers really don't remember any special relationship with her, so why do you call your sister? She feels a little obedient, and Wulang feels a little uncomfortable in his heart.
After hearing this, Sanlang came to his senses and glanced at Twelve Niang, who was sitting across from him, her eyes filled with water. He himself didn't like to see others cry, and he was a little disgusted. His sister had never cried before.
.
Twelve Niang was a little embarrassed. She thought she had too much to say, but she didn't expect that the other person was very calm and had no empathy at all. She gritted her teeth and felt that the other person was not very impressed.
Sanlang and Wulang looked at each other and had a very strange feeling. Why did they feel that she was acting weird and had a particularly deep relationship with them? This felt wrong. If it was really the Twelfth Mother, it would be dozens of people.
I met them once or twice a year ago, but they didn't have a deep relationship. At most, they were so-called cousins.
When Wulang touched Sanlang, Sanlang said very bluntly: "No wonder it feels familiar. Looking at it now, it does look like my sister's profile, but if I compare her with her, I am still very young."
Wulang almost laughed out loud. His brother was too upright and would not look at other people's faces at all. To tell the truth, if ordinary people heard this, they would be angry to death, hahaha!
Twelve Niang looked at the two brothers and found that they seemed to have said something, but now that she was older, her ears were a bit bad, so she didn't hear what it was at all.
At this moment, she knew that the two people opposite her had no feelings for her, and they would only talk about that person in their hearts. When she thought of this, she felt very uncomfortable. If she had known this earlier, she would not have chosen randomly, she would have
Take another path.
Thinking of this, her tears flowed again. Why was she like this? Just when she thought she could live a good life, she found that everything had changed. She had never intervened in many things, but she ended up in this situation.
Of course, she also knew that this time she lived much longer than before, but didn't she live longer? And she lived a much more nourishing life than herself. When she thought of this, Twelve Niang felt sad from the bottom of her heart. Why did she live longer every time?
Compared with her, life is worse than hers?
Feeling the sadness overflowing from the other person's body, Saburo and Goro looked at each other. What is going on with this person? Why do they have to see their brother? It is said that this cousin should meet his own sister. There is a certain relationship between women.
Great communication possibilities.
Then she must have some reason to go to them, or what they can do for her. The two brothers basically have no impression of this twelve-year-old mother, so why are they looking for them?
Wulang used his eyes to signal his brother Sanlang not to agree to others easily to avoid taking the blame. Sanlang knew that he was not as clever as Wulang in terms of dexterity, so he naturally agreed to his brother's reminder.
