Chapter 1092 A Poem in Seven Steps

Chapter 1973 A Poem in Seven Steps

Everyone in the world has heard that Jin Emperor Li Xiang was known as a womanizer.

In fact, it is no longer a rumor, but has become the consensus of the world.

If a woman can be used to solve the problem, just as Li Xiang and Wang Meng think it is a huge profit, people like Cao will certainly think it is a huge profit.

What, you said Du is Cao Cao’s concubine?

So what does it matter?

Concubine, what status do you think they have? They are not the main wife!

Even Du's concubine is not considered a concubine, but just a concubine, with a lower status than a concubine.

The difference in the status of wives and concubines began to be reflected when they got married. As the saying goes, marrying a wife and buying a concubine means that in ancient times, marrying a wife is the main wife. Not only must they be well-matched, but they must also go through three matchmakers and six betrothals, and the matchmaker must marry the right wife.

Buying a concubine is different. Buying and selling a concubine is equivalent to buying and selling goods. Whether you marry a wife or buy a concubine, you need to pay a certain amount of financial resources. The difference is that what is given when marrying a wife is called a bride price, while what is given when taking a concubine is called a betrothal gift. It is called the money to buy a concubine.

At the same time, the wedding of a concubine was simpler than that of a wife. What's more, a small concubine was carried directly into the house and it was done. During the Tang and Song Dynasties, it was once popular to exchange concubines for gifts. In the late Qing Dynasty, giving away beautiful concubines was even more popular. As a common method for officials to cling to and make friends with their superiors; during the Ming and Qing Dynasties, there was even an industry chain dedicated to training, buying and selling concubines.

The most famous one is the "Yangzhou Slim Horse". A "Skinny Horse" refers to a girl from a poor family who is bought by human traffickers when she is seven or eight years old, raised and then sold at a high price. This is different from what a businessman buys at a low price. The management method is the same as thin horses, which are fattened and then sold at a high price. Therefore, these women are called "thin horses". Yangzhou has formed an industry chain specifically for raising women to be concubines, commonly known as "raising thin horses" .

The family status of the concubine is also quite humble, and it is normal for the concubine not to be included in the family tree. Even if the concubine has children, they can only be recorded as "outside the stepmother". Not only does the concubine have no right to participate in the important affairs of family sacrifices, but also The children he gave birth to can only call their biological mother "aunt" and their first wife as "divine mother".

In fact, concubines like Du's were not included in the escape at the beginning. After all, Cao Chun and the others were trying to break out of the encirclement, so why did they bring so many burdens?

It was Cao Pi, a boy with deep thoughts, who secretly brought out several of Cao Cao's concubines without telling everyone, especially the Du family who was born and registered in the same state. What he did was just one day like this.

In terms of deep thinking, the old Cao family can be regarded as a descendant.

Facing the bold and charming eyes of the Du family, Li Xiang couldn't help but curve his lips. After accepting the greetings of everyone from the Cao family, he strode towards the Cao family's mansion.

This was once the residence of a member of the Imperial Party, but after Li Xiang was eliminated by the fishing and law enforcement agencies, this residence was vacated and given to the Cao clan as their resettlement place.

The Bian sisters led the way. In terms of looks alone, they were inferior to the Dus. Especially the older sister, the Bian sisters, were mothers of several children.

However, in Li Xiang's eyes, these two gave him a greater desire to conquer than Du's. It was said that Cao Cao liked wives the most during his lifetime, and Li Xiang was very happy with them even though he was not as persistent in pursuing them as Cao Cao.

As for Li Xiang, he is not interested in ordinary wives. He said that the only ones he is interested in are the wives and concubines of his current enemies!

A man's wife should be the wife of another man!

Withdrawing his gaze, Li Xiang entered the main hall under the leadership of Bian, sitting high above the main seat. In the hall, there were only a few more important descendants of the Cao family or Xiahou family.

"When I was in Luoyang, I often heard about the name of Cao Zijian in the Central Plains. There are only one stone in the world, and Cao Zijian alone won eight buckets!" Looking past Cao Pi and looking at Cao Zhi behind him, who had an unnatural look on his face, Li Xiang said with a smile on his lips.

He wanted to keep Cao Zhi on purpose. He had to take a look at Cao Zhi and Cao Pi! Which of these two people would be the head of the Cao family? Li Xiang had to take a look for himself before he could make a decision!

Many of the Cao family's children died in battle at the hands of the Jin army, but Cao Pi seemed indifferent. This man had a deep mind and his emotions and anger were always invisible, but Cao Zhi was far inferior in this regard.

Cao Zhi didn't even realize that Li Xiang had been observing him. Li Xiang had already noticed that when this kid glanced at him inadvertently, there was a hint of resentment in his eyes.

Cao Cao, Cao Pi, Cao Zhi, and the seven sons of Jian'an, Kong Rong, Chen Lin, Wang Can, Xu Qian, Ruan Yu, Ying Jue, and Liu Zhen, are known as the representatives of Jian'an literature.

Cao Zhi's "Luo Shen Fu" is an eternal masterpiece.

Talented and talented, it describes Cao Zhi of the Three Kingdoms.

Cao Zhi may have been a good poet, but that was all. Being a good poet does not mean that he can become a good official, and it does not mean that he can become a good monarch.

"Your Majesty is overly praised, but it is just a false reputation and cannot be taken seriously!" Cao Zhi could not judge the intention behind Li Xiang's words for a while, so he could only reply humbly.

"Since Zijian is so talented, let me have a look at Zijian's literary talent. Ask Zijian to compose a poem within seven steps. If successful, I will reward you greatly." Li Xiang stared at Cao Zhi. .

Cao Pi is a poisonous snake. It is not necessarily a good thing for the Cao family to have such a person to decide the future. At first, Li Xiang originally wanted to support Cao Zhi, who was relatively mediocre in this regard.

But it was only after he met these two people that he realized that he was completely wrong.

Even though Cao Pi is a poisonous snake, he is a smart man and he knows what to do when. As long as Li Xiang remains strong enough and Cao Pi does not see any opportunities, Cao Pi will not have any unnecessary thoughts.

And once Li Xiang becomes weak one day and allows others to see the opportunity, I am afraid that Cao Pi will be just one of the monsters and monsters that emerge at that time.

As for Cao Zhi, the literati are indeed simpler in some aspects. At least, it would be very idiotic for a person to still dwell on those hatreds under the roof.

Even though the Cao family has been divided and drawn together a lot, the Xiahou family of the Cao family still has a large number of members of the same family, as well as You Liang, Le Jin, Xu Long, Xu Feng, etc. who are closely attached to them. If Cao Zhi does

As the head of the Cao family, this person might become a knife in the hands of some thoughtful people!

To put it bluntly, it is difficult for others to fool Cao Pi, but it is not necessarily impossible to fool Cao Zhi!

Everyone in the Cao family looked at Li Xiang and Cao Zhi in panic, wondering how Cao Zhi could offend Li Xiang in the first place! Perhaps Cao Pi was the only one who made some guesses.

At first, Cao Pi actually didn't want Cao Zhi to stay in the lobby. Cao Zhi had not yet learned to keep his emotions in check, and could not completely hide his emotions. But when Li Xiang spoke, Cao Zhi could only stay here.
