The great pole King faces east, LIUCHEN County, where Prince Yong was elected.

Yes, you are right. Liu Chen county is a simple name without any ambiguity.

Liu Chen's two big surnames account for almost 70% of the county's population, and almost monopolize the lower officials and imperial examinations in the county. Almost all the benefits are monopolized by the two big families. It is difficult for the other small surnames to survive.

When LIUCHEN county was not established as a county and still belonged to a foreign land, it was originally the place under the control of the Dongyi tribe and had its own set of customs.

Later, the Taizu of the great pole Dynasty, that is, Emperor Wu, the head of the Nine Emperors, conquered this area and ordered all tribes to change customs. The two remaining tribes nearby were changed to the Han surname, which is today's Liu and Chen surnames.

The two tribes can still maintain peace when resisting outsiders. Once the foreign enemy retreats, they have to fight inside.

This is also the ingenious arrangement of Taizu. Two big surnames with similar strength are fighting. In order to obtain comparative advantage, they must have a good relationship with the government to avoid being suppressed. Then, in the continuous communication, the degree of Sinicization becomes deeper and deeper, and they can't afford to fight.

In this way, it is the law of pacifying the people and fixing the border. Facts have proved that this method has good and bad.

The two tribes have indeed been sinicized. Whether participating in the imperial examination or paying tribute and Fu, they are the same as ordinary families, and they do compete with each other, which has produced certain benefits.

However, no matter how they compete, they don't want anyone to share their status and power. The foreign name of LIUCHEN county wants to get a certain position in this county. Men become redundant and women naturally become daughter-in-law. Otherwise, it is the life of slaves.

Not only LIUCHEN County, but also all parts of the great pole Dynasty have such a situation that big families control one party's power and compete with court officials. However, LIUCHEN county is a typical example.

As a typical example, it entered the eyes and ears of the imperial court. When choosing the place of selection, it became one of the alternatives to investigate whether the prince could coordinate the interests of large and small families.

It's not difficult to associate with these big surnames, but in this way, your vision is too narrow. It runs counter to the original intention of the imperial court and loses the support of the imperial court. No matter how powerful your prince is, he will also become a shallow water snake.

Therefore, we should deal with the balance between large and small families. In fact, every place where the prince is elected has its own consideration and thinking behind it.

After King Yong took over Liu Chen County, the first thing was to take the daughters of Liu Chen's two families as concubines. No, you can't use concubines. You should use prospective concubines. If King Yong succeeded to the throne, he would be a real concubine.

Don't think about the latter. These two small families are princes in LIUCHEN County, but looking at the world, they really exist as big as shrimp. There is no blessing to expect the latter.

King Yong accepted the daughters of the two families as the prospective imperial concubines. He did not know that the two families had been blessed for several generations. Their status in the middle school was instantly improved by several grades. In the future, the opportunities for promotion of the people were also much higher.

Everything is not absolute. If these two women have superb means and the ability to turn things around, it is not impossible to climb the back, but it is extremely difficult. If they really want to achieve the back, they can't rely solely on their mother's family and need to find new forces.

King Yong took the two women as the prospective imperial concubines. Just this move, the two families were successfully annexed, saved a lot of trouble, and easily controlled and took over the affairs of Liu Chen county.

In addition, the people under King Yong also married two families successively. However, only king Yong married two families at one time. The people under King Yong spoke for which family they married, forming a balance.

Among them, Wu Yi is also an ordinary person. He also married a woman from the Chen family. She is called Chen Jiaying. She is also the daughter of the head of the Chen family. She has a clear name in the Chen family.

In addition, Wu Yi is the confidant of King Yong and has a high status. In order to win the support of Wu Yi, the Liu and Chen families fought fiercely, even in front of King Yong. Finally, King Yong decided to accept the daughter of the Chen family.

In fact, at first, King Yong also talked privately. In his words, he suggested that Wu Yi would marry two families at one time. How can Wu Yi answer? Naturally, he refused. Is it difficult for him to imitate what king Yong did? If not, is there any sense of being a courtier.

Therefore, it is not surprising that the marriage object of the Chen family is the daughter of the head of the Chen family and the sister of the prospective imperial concubine of King Yong. It would be strange if it were not the daughter of the patriarch, but just a collateral daughter.

In this way, the Chen family still feels indebted. In order to make Chen Jiaying sit firmly as his wife, the Chen family spent almost half of the family's savings as a dowry. Among the Chen family, the weight of Wu Yi's words is second only to the patriarch, and even Qi Ping.

To this extent, this is Wu Yi's personal status. At present, he is the first person under King Yong.

The Chen family attached great importance to this marriage, second only to the ethnic women married to King Yong. They always hoped that Chen Jiaying would give birth to a son as the crystallization of the marriage.

Although Wu Yi's energy and spirit are all in the talisman, he is in contact with Chen Jiaying. The last born son is also the blood of the original owner of the body. He has no blood relationship with Wu Yi, so there should be no afterthought.

It's just that causality has little to do with reality. The problem is whether you think there is causality. If you think there is, there is. If you don't think there is, there is No. everything cares about you.

Therefore, some people look down on everything, or they are empty, or they are too forgetful. All causes and consequences have nothing to do with it, and external disasters will not find him on their own.

If you really combine with Chen Jiaying, the last offspring has nothing to do with Wu Yi from the perspective of blood relationship.

But in terms of friendship, Wu Yi can't forget his feelings too much. Cause and effect are inevitable. In the future, when this son meets a disaster, he has to help. In this way, he has become a person of the authorities and can't be as calm as before.

Therefore, in the past four or five years, Wu Yi and Chen Jiaying have not given birth to children.

The male is magnificent and the female is gentle and pleasant. I haven't heard that there are first-class hidden diseases. In the good years, there is no birth of children. There is a lot of discussion outside, that is, King Yong. When talking at the banquet, he also jokes about Wu Yi.

Worried about cause and effect, Wu Yi has not thought about asking for his children. However, as a result, the views of the Chen family have changed. Is it necessary to support an uncle who can not bring continuity to the Chen family?
