Three Kingdoms

Feimin laughed heartily and said, "This is a happy event, how can there be any reason to blame it?" Although Feimin said this, he seemed to have no grudge at all, but in fact, in his heart, besides regret, he also felt Some dissatisfaction.

It is a pity that after Fei Qian married the daughter of the Huang family of Jingxiang, even if Fei Min's family found a suitable woman, it would not be suitable for her to marry Fei Qian again.

Because unless Fei Qian divorces the Huang family, she can only have the status of a concubine after marrying her. And such a concubine status will be a humiliation for the woman of the main branch of the Fei family, which is absolutely impossible to accept. .

Of course, if Fei Qian's status can be greatly improved, then naturally there will be a large number of people willing to be a maid...

When aristocratic women in the Zhou Dynasty got married, they needed to be accompanied by sisters or aunts and nephews of the same clan, who were called concubines. The concubines would become concubines and had a higher status than concubines. Later, the concubine and the concubine gradually became indistinguishable. "Book of Rites* Nei Principles" says: "If my wife is away, I will not dare to stay in the evening."

In the Han Dynasty, unless you made special contributions, you could have eight concubines, that is, "if you are awarded a title, you must prepare eight concubines." However, ordinary officials could only marry three concubines at most, that is, "a minister and a high official" Wife and two concubines.” If you are a commoner, you are not allowed to marry a little wife. "Common people have one husband and one wife" and can only live with one woman.

So if it was during the Han Dynasty, if someone like Fei Qian, whose official position did not reach the level of "Qing Dafu", dared to take concubines privately, hehe, if they were investigated, the happy event would immediately turn into a funeral...

Therefore, Fei Min's dissatisfaction also came from this. He had clearly written a letter to Fei Qian, hinting that he would find a match for Fei Qian, but he did not expect that Fei Qian not only refused to accept it, but also married him without informing him. After killing the Jingxiang Huang family, Fei Min's original plan came to nothing, which naturally made Fei Min feel uncomfortable.

But after all, it was a hint in the letter without saying it clearly. Although Fei Min knew clearly that Fei Qian could definitely see what the letter meant, in the end it was still not made clear, right? Therefore, Fei Min was dissatisfied, and It’s hard to say anything about it.

Although Fei Qian could not see any dissatisfaction from Fei Min's expression, from one detail, Fei Qian could still detect the true emotions in Fei Min's heart...

If you are really happy for your descendants from the bottom of your heart, then since you are not there to see it with your own eyes, you will at least ask about the circumstances of the wedding, some situations of the two people after the marriage, etc. Even if Feimin is a male , and as the head of the family, he pays more attention to the interests of the family and does not care about those details. So we should also pay attention to whether Fei Qian has gained anything in terms of benefits after marrying the Jingxiang Huang family, and whether the Huang family has gained anything. Questions like what supports Fei Qiang.

But it is a pity that Feimin did not mention any of these issues and only expressed his congratulations verbally. In this way, Feimin's true attitude is obvious...

Fei Qian cursed in his heart, it seems that the head of his family is not a tolerant and kind-hearted person. Maybe he will hand over a pair of small shoes to wear...

Fei Min stroked his beard slowly and asked casually: "It is said that my nephew has taken up an official position in Liu Jingzhou, is there anything wrong?"

After all, Fei Qian is not a person who just stomps his feet and shakes the world. If the news coming from the Jingxiang land is not deliberately inquiring, even if Fei Qian's level has some information, it will not be as big as the current Kanto noble clan's crusade against Dong Zhuo. It attracts attention, so it is normal for Feimin to lag behind the news about Fei Qian.

Although this sentence is light and airy, it is as casual as the elders in later generations often ask the younger generation, how are you doing at work?

But hearing such a sentence in Fei Qian's ears, Fei Qian couldn't help but immediately start thinking. After all, no one is easy to be the head of a noble family, even a small-scale noble family like the Fei family... …

In this sentence, Fei Min and Fei Qian guessed that it has at least three meanings:

First, in the current Han Dynasty, becoming an official often means being loyal to a certain person. Fei Min's words naturally meant to ask whether Fei Qian chose to be loyal to Liu Biao, the governor of Jingzhou;

Secondly, Liu Biao had multiple stigmas on him. He was a member of the royal family, a high official in the border areas, and at the same time he was within the scope of the Guandong gentry. Although he did not clearly show any banner, everyone was familiar with the Guan Gong gentry. He understood something, so Fei Min also asked Fei Qian which side he was on, whether it was Dong Zhuo's side or the Kanto nobles' side, or whether he was like Liu Biao, a kind of wait-and-see kind of person;

Third, it is natural that since Fei Qianqian went to work in Jingxiang, why did he suddenly come back to Luoyang? Is there something special? Of course, Fei Min wouldn't ask openly, so he would ask Fei Qian in this way. If Fei Qian could tell, he would naturally tell him. If Fei Qian couldn't tell, Feimin didn't ask explicitly, so everyone wouldn't feel bad about it. The answer made both parties a little embarrassed...

Fei Qian said: "Qian has resigned from office..." This matter will be known to everyone sooner or later, so there is no need to conceal or deceive, it is better to tell the truth.

"Huh?" Fei Min straightened his body a little, and paused while stroking his beard, and asked, "Why did my nephew resign?"

If Fei Qian develops in Jingxiang, then Fei Min naturally doesn't have too many opinions. This is the purpose of the gentry's expansion, but Fei Qian resigned from his official position in Jingxiang, which soon means...

So Fei Min felt a little uneasy. After all, his children were getting older, and they also needed a platform to show their abilities and achieve certain achievements. Only in this way can they naturally inherit the title of head of the Fei family for the next generation. Bit.

Originally, in the Fei family, there was no suspense of competition for the position of head of the next generation, but now a young Fei Qian was born. Although he has not yet achieved a high position, there are figures standing behind him. The potential resources are really difficult to estimate. Maybe the originally stable family head will slip from his hands...

How could Feimin not be nervous in this situation?

I have been running the Fei family for so many years, isn’t it to pass on the Fei family business to my children in the future? Although Fei Qian has not expressed any intention of competition now, who can ensure that Fei Qian will not have such thoughts in the future? Besides, it was clear that Fei Fei could live comfortably in Jingxiang, but now he resigned from his job and came to Heluo. What on earth did he want to do?

Although the smile on Fei Min's face remained unchanged, his eyes were staring at Fei Qian, as if he wanted to penetrate Fei Qian's surface and dig out his true inner thoughts...

After Liu Bei took control of Xuzhou, there was a famous blacksmith in Xuzhou. Liu Guan and Zhang wanted to forge a sharp weapon for each of them.

Liu Bei was the first to visit, but the blacksmith declined and said, "General Liu, you have a sword to use."

Guan Yu then visited, but the blacksmith declined and said, "General Guan, you have a use for a sword."

When it was Zhang Fei's turn, Liu Bei hurriedly took his hand and said, "Third brother, according to your temper, it's better not to go..."
