Chapter 31 Sima Shi's Fiancee
The large and solemn stone tablet was engraved with several large characters: "The tomb of Yang, the former Shangdang prefect."
sheep?
This name is very unfamiliar to Cao Liang, but among the big families in the Central Dynasty, the only one with the surname Yang is the Taiyang family. Presumably, this sheep must also be a member of the Taiyang family.
The Yang family is a famous family with two thousand shi of official positions. Although they cannot be compared with the Xun family of Yingchuan, the Chen family, the Cui family of Qinghe, and the Sima family of Hanoi, they still have a decisive position in the court, especially in Jin Dynasty.
After replacing the famous general Yang Hu, the status of the Yang family rose sharply and became prominent for a while.
I don’t know what the relationship between this Yang and Yang Hu is? However, Yang Hu’s development happened after the Jin Dynasty and the Wei Dynasty. Now Yang Hu is still young and has not yet become an official, so his reputation is not obvious.
I just don’t know who this woman is who is hiding her face and crying in front of the sheep’s grave?
Cao Liang paused deliberately. The girl's eyes were red and swollen from crying, and there was no trace of blood on her pale face, which made her look pitiful.
At first, Cao Liang didn't intend to talk. We met by chance and had no friendship. They were just strangers passing by. But then he thought about it. It was almost dark and this woman had no intention of going down the mountain. In this wilderness
If you encounter some bad guys, you'll be in trouble.
So Cao Liang said to the woman: "Girl, it's getting late. It's better to go down the mountain as soon as possible. This mountain is not very safe."
Xiaoqin, the maid standing by the side, raised eyebrows at Cao Liang: "Do you need to discipline our young lady?"
Cao Liang was immediately speechless. Am I being disciplined? Ma Dan, I'm just a kind reminder. This girl doesn't appreciate it, but she still looks fierce. She really treats her kindness as a donkey's liver and lungs.
Cao Liang ignored her and was about to ride his horse when he saw the young lady raised her head and said to Xiaoqin: "Xiaoqin, don't be rude."
Then he said to Cao Liang: "Thank you very much, sir."
Cao Liang thought to himself, she is such a gentle girl, she knows how to read and respond to etiquette, she is quiet and elegant, but she has to be served by such a wicked maid. What a sharp contrast between the master and the servant.
"There may be some bad guys in this barren mountain. Girl, it's better to go down the mountain early to prevent any unexpected events."
Xiaoqin pursed her lips and muttered: "If you show courtesy for nothing, you are either an adulterer or a thief. I don't think you are a good person."
The young lady's face darkened and she said: "How dare you, Xiaoqin, if you keep talking nonsense, I will ask my wife to match you when you go back. You don't have to follow me anymore."
Xiaoqin's face changed drastically and she shouted urgently: "No, miss."
The young lady's expression softened slightly and she said: "Go, pack your things, let's go down the mountain."
Xiaoqin didn't dare to disobey and hurried forward to pack her things.
The young lady walked slowly in front of Cao Liang's horse, saluted and said: "My maid is kind-hearted and quick-tongued. Please forgive me for any offence."
It was inconvenient for Cao Liang to leave at this time, so he smiled slightly and said: "It's okay. I wonder which relative the girl is worshiping?"
The young lady glanced at the tombstone sadly and said in a low voice: "Father."
This is similar to Cao Liang's guess. If it wasn't her father, she probably wouldn't have cried so sadly.
"It turns out it's your Majesty. My condolences, girl, you can't pass away after death. The deceased is already gone. It's important to take care of yourself." Cao Liang comforted her and said.
"My late father passed away a few years ago. Today's memorial ceremony is just for other things." The young lady said calmly.
Cao Liang was a little embarrassed. Seeing her crying so sadly, he thought she was a newly bereaved relative. He didn't expect that she was paying tribute to an old grave, so he might have mistaken his meaning. Cao Liang coughed lightly to cover up his embarrassment: "
I am Cao Liang of the Gaoling Marquis Mansion. I wonder what I call the girl?"
As soon as the words came out of his mouth, Cao Liang felt a little abrupt. This was not the era of later generations, when he could talk to women at will on the street. Even if the moral code between men and women in the Han and Wei dynasties was not as strict as in the Song and Ming dynasties, he could still ask a woman casually.
It's really not a polite thing to do.
The young lady was a little stunned, but she soon regained her composure and said in a low voice: "I am Yang Huiyu."
Damn it! Cao Liang almost didn't say bad words. He didn't expect that she was Yang Huiyu, Sima Shi's third wife and Queen Jingxian.
When Cao Liang found out that her surname was Yang, an idea flashed in his mind. Could it be that she was Yang Huiyu?
But he wasn't sure. After all, there were so many women with the surname Sheep. How could he bump into her by such a coincidence?
At this time, Yang Huiyu said it himself, Cao Liang no longer had any doubts. He did not expect that he would meet Sima Shi's wife by accident in Beimang Mountain. However, judging from her dress, it was Yunying who was not married.
It should be that they are not married yet.
But they should have already been engaged. Judging by the time, Yang Huiyu should have almost married into the Sima family.
According to historical records, Yang Huiyu married Master Sima at the age of twenty-one. According to the concept of later generations, marrying at this age was a bit early, but in this era, she was definitely considered an older leftover woman.
It is very common for ordinary women to get married at the age of fifteen or sixteen, and it is not uncommon even at the age of thirteen or fourteen. The cardamom age refers to a girl of thirteen or fourteen years old, and when she is fifteen, she has reached the age of marriage.
Xiangyang Huiyu has not yet married when she is twenty-one years old. The most embarrassing thing is that "the golden fighter is left."
Master Sima will seize power and seize the country in the future. Naturally, Cao Liang and Master Sima have an sworn hatred. However, Cao Liang did not expect that before he saw Master Sima, he met his wife first. This world is really strange.
.
Cao Liang was very puzzled. Logically speaking, the two were not matched, so how could they come together?
First of all, age. Master Sima is now in her early thirties, a full ten years older than Yang Huiyu. It is said that Master Sima's eldest daughter is even older than her hairpin.
Secondly, Master Sima was not married for the second time. He should have been married for the third time. The eldest wife he murdered was Xia Houhui. Later, Master Sima also married Wu Zhi’s daughter and divorced her. When he came to Yang Huiyu,
She is considered to be the third one, and she has to be the mother of five daughters when she enters the house, so she can be considered as no one else.
Cao Liang really didn't understand why Yang Huiyu jumped into a big fire pit without hesitation. Is it possible that there are no men in the world?
Yes, in terms of family background, Sima Shi is also very good. His father, Sima Yi, was the minister of Gu Ming. When he was the imperial tutor, Sima Shi served as a regular attendant on the cavalry, and he was also considered a close minister around the emperor.
But at this time, the ambition of the Sima family has not yet been exposed, and it has not yet reached the time when they have the power to dominate the world. If the Yang family really chooses a son-in-law, there will be many people with better conditions than Sima Shi, and whoever they choose will be better than this killer.
Isn't the Wife Maniac much stronger?
After all, being a Sima Master's wife is a high-risk profession.
