In the spring of 194, Yuan Shu mourned Yuan Yao. Although Yuan Yao said not to make his funeral too grand, Yuan Shu still buried Yuan Yao silently with the ceremony of Jiuqing. If Yuan Yao had not asked, Yuan Shu would have died.
He will definitely be buried with the rites of a prince.
Having said that, although Jiu Qing's etiquette still exceeds the rules, but now the world is in chaos, no one can control it. In addition, Yuan Shu opened a warehouse to provide food for the people under his rule, and promised that he would do so every year, so after learning that
After this incident, the people of Yuzhou, Yangzhou, and Jingzhou spontaneously offered sticks of incense to Yuan Yao, which can be regarded as a different kind of cannibalism.
It was not a big deal to mourn Yuan Yao, but the problem now is that after Yuan Yao died, Yuan Shu had no children, and Yuan Shu was one of the top three princes in the world anyway, and behind him was the Yuan family. Yuan Shu's descendants were cut off, and the Yuan family had to
Find a way to help deal with this matter.
Extinction of an heir was absolutely intolerable to the ancients. Generally speaking, at this time, brothers of Yuan Shu's generation who had many sons would immediately adopt one of their sons to Yuan Shu to inherit the incense.
After all, according to the ancients, as long as you worship my ancestors, worship my ancestors, and admit that you are my descendant, then no matter what happened to you in the past, you are now my heir, and the adopted son and legitimate son enjoy the same rights.
The only difference is that the adopted son does not have the right to inherit.
Of course, this refers to the case where the legitimate son is alive, like the kind that requires someone else to adopt an adopted heir to inherit the incense. Needless to say, there must be no legitimate son. If such an adoption passes, the adopted son will inherit everything from the adoptive father, including rights and obligations.
.All aspects of status will be inherited.
This is also why Yuan Shao, as the son of Yuan Feng, has the same status as Yuan Shu even though he is only a concubine. It is because Yuan Feng adopted him to Yuan Cheng and inherited the position of the legitimate son of Yuan Cheng. Of course, from then on, he
It is necessary to call Yuan Feng uncle, Yuan Cheng father, and Yuan Shu cousin.
Similarly, the original intention of Yuan Shu's acceptance of Sun Ce as his adopted son was to allow Sun Ce to inherit his Yuan Shu lineage. After he dies, someone can offer him incense or something during the solar term, so as to prevent his Yuan Shu lineage from doing anything.
A lonely ghost.
"Looking for my cousin?" Yuan Shu glanced at the elders of the Yuan family coldly. "Since we are all adopting adopted sons, why should I adopt someone I hate? You don't need to take care of my affairs!"
"It's not that our Yuan family doesn't have heirs. The Wenkai lineage was now prosperous because it inherited Benchu. Today, the Zhouyang lineage that originally supported the Wenkai lineage is in this situation. Naturally, it should be
There are stepchildren from the Wenkai lineage." The elder of the Yuan family replied helplessly.
In fact, apart from being dissatisfied with Yuan Shu's explicit statement of treating Sun Ce like a legitimate son, the elders of the Yuan family also had some small thoughts of their own.
Not to mention anything else, the Yuan family is now prosperous and lives a much more relaxed life than the Yang family who huddled in Chang'an and dared not move around.
Regardless of whether they are from Yuan Shao's lineage or Yuan Shu's lineage, in the Yuan family's evaluation, they are basically powerful princes who are qualified to dominate the world.
It is precisely because of this tyrannical strength that the Yuan family's forces supporting Yuan Shao and those supporting Yuan Shu can sit down and have a good talk. Both parties are strong enough, and there is still something to fight for at Cao Cao's level. Between these two forces
It seems like it's all just trivial.
They have begun to look beyond one city and one place to the whole world. They have also thought about merging, but it is a pity. Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu are both too strong. This is just like when the three families of Han, Zhao and Wei were divided into Jin, during the Warring States Period
They have been beaten to death during the period, don't they want to return to their original strong promotion?
Naturally, I think, but the problem is that it can't be done. Let's first talk about who will be the boss after the merger. After all, the Yuan family has been divided into two branches because of Yuan Shu and Yuan Shao. Although the elders of the Yuan family are sensible, they are more of a bet.
The guys on Yuan Shu and Yuan Shao.
As a result, the northern and southern Yuan families mentioned this matter for the first time and broke up unhappy. However, this time Yuan Yao passed away, the rational elders of the Yuan family once again saw the light of day.
The two branches of the Yuan family in the north and south quickly exchanged their opinions after Yuan Yao's death. There was basically nothing to discuss about the merger. In the end, Yuan Shao, who was forced to have no choice but to throw out his trump card - his secret team!
After Xun Chen and Xu You joined in, the two Yuan families were unable to come to an agreement from their original fight, and soon sat down to think about it.
In the end, the two parties reached an agreement with the help of Xun Chen and Xu You. First, the princes in the world would be cleared out, and the struggle for hegemony within the Han Dynasty would become a conflict within the Yuan family. As for who should be the boss, this matter will be discussed later.
Although Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu were at loggerheads, to be honest, he was not as good as Yuan Shu, and he would not let Yuan Shu die. After learning that Yuan Yao died, he hesitated and planned to adopt his favorite son Yuan Shang to Yuan Shu.
In fact, it was Jushou's suggestion to adopt Yuan Shang to Yuan Shu, because Jushou had already seen some signs of doting on Yuan Shang in Yuan Shao, and Yuan Tan had not done anything wrong now. If the elder was abolished and the younger was replaced, Jushou was really worried about a big chaos.
.
Regarding Jushu's proposal, Yuan Shao agreed without much thought. He did like Yuan Shang, his younger son, but he was wise enough now not to abolish the elder and establish a younger one. However, after Jushu's suggestion, he couldn't help but give birth to some other children.
Thoughts, the Yuan family needs the strongest person as the head of the family!
To be honest, Yuan Shao was purely out of kindness and never thought of using this method to occupy Yuan Shu's place. Using this method would be worse for Yuan Shao than hosting a Hongmen Banquet, at least it wouldn't be embarrassing.
Because of this, Yuan Shao's explanation to Yuan Shang is that after the adoption, you only need to think about how to benefit Yuan Shu's lineage, even if this benefit will greatly damage Yuan Shao, it doesn't matter.
As a result, you can see from the current situation that Yuan Shu is not interested in Yuan Shao. Regarding the proposal of the elder of the Yuan family, Yuan Shu, who has now fallen into a state of paranoia, simply turned his back and walked away.
Sometimes people are like this. After falling into paranoia, the more you let him do it, the more he will stop doing it. Yuan Shu is in this state now. He has given up hope of accepting Sun Ce as his adopted son, but he has no hope of accepting Sun Ce as his adopted son.
I have absolute confidence in inheriting my Yuan Shu lineage.
Just when the Yuan family was about to continue educating Yuan Shu, a messenger rushed into the hall.
"Report, general, Liu Biao's troops are coming out of Jingbei, seizing Nanjun, and forcing them to attack Dangyang!" the ordering soldier shouted loudly.
"Liu Biao, you are looking for death! As the eighth horse, you don't know how to lose your relatives!" Yuan Shu roared angrily. (To be continued, please search Piao Tian Literature, the novel is better and updated faster!
