Shortly after the meeting of the dynasty, Xu Du was circulating a joke: Uncle Liu actually took the initiative to pick up water for the widow.

It is not right to say that a widow is a divorced woman.

Since the woman's ex-husband happened to be Cao Cao, this incident spread to every corner of the streets and alleys in a dazzling way in two days.

After all, Cao Cao and Liu Bei are almost the first and second among current officials. This kind of gossip with a erotic color between big figures has naturally become a hot topic for the people to discuss with relish after dinner.

What do you know if these rumors in the market will be fermented until they are finally released.

Of course this is a rumor. How could Liu Bei be a widow? How could he need to help him carry water in person? No matter how in the Ding family is, there is no shortage of servants who use it to carry water. However, it is true that Liu Bei visited Ding's family. There was no custom of not leaving the door without going out. Liu Bei even met with Ding's family, chatted for a few words, gave him some small gifts, and told me if he had something to do in the future.

It is indeed a very obvious hint.

However, Ding Chong didn't think about it at that time. After all, the emperor's hint is so obscure. Who can have the understanding of Dharma?

However, with Liu Bei's further actions, friendship, and rumors spreading around the market, Ding Chong also figured out that something was wrong. He thought about the emperor's words carefully and seemed to... that's what he meant!

It seems that it is just because the emperor himself is shameless and I am embarrassed to say such words clearly. Liu Bei is truly worthy of being the emperor's most trusted uncle. He has received such a hint.

Marry your sister and become a governor?

To be honest, since the Ding family divorced from Cao Cao, the entire Ding family has never had the idea of ​​remarrying Ding. Instead, they have been thinking about how to remarry the couple and never thought about other men.

He suddenly threw such a big bomb to him and was stunned.

Ding Chong didn't dare to tell his sister about these rumors and his imagination that after thinking about this, he could only discuss with his son.

"Dad, this is something that can be done. Uncle Liu is a hero in the world and has great power. If his aunt can marry him, it will be really good." When the eldest son Ding Yi heard about this, he was very eager and wanted his aunt to remarry.

"Is this a matter of being a good match? How many things are involved? It is not an exaggeration to say that this matter is related to the stability of the world. Our Ding, Cao and Xiahou families have been married for generations since the fight against Emperor Gaozu. It has been hundreds of years. It has been yours and I have you, and you are like a family. Now, today, I am clearly digging Meng De's corner. Even if Meng De is sorry for your aunt, we are a family, and our Ding family is still the mother of Duke Wei! Isn't it betrayal of the family when we marry Uncle Liu at this time?"

"Dad, you are confused! The Cao family is the Cao family, the Duke of Wei is the Duke of Wei, the Ding family is the Ding family, the aunt is the aunt, and the grandmother of the councillor is the grandmother of the councillor. Why don't you understand this principle? You and Duke of Wei are relatives, so are you and Uncle Yuan Rang and Uncle Zixiao? The three families of Ding, Cao and Xiahou are really family, but our three families do not mean Duke of Wei! If Duke of Wei really does the things of Wang Mang and Huo Guang in the future, will all of us be buried with him?"

When Ding Chong heard this, his brows frowned even more.

He knew that his son was quite dissatisfied with Cao Cao, or the family, but he never expected that he could say such a thing.

Of course, Ding Yi himself can be said to be the most unlucky person in this failed marriage. Originally, as Cao Cao's nephew, it would be fine to be a man as an adult, but now he is just a mess. He can only rely on writing poetry and taking the route of a famous scholar. As a result, the court suddenly changed the imperial examination.

He also went to the imperial examination this year, but unfortunately he didn't get any reputation.

Of course it's fine. The problem is that although he and Cao Pi are similar in age, they have had a bad relationship since childhood. Who made Cao Pi the eldest son of Mrs. Bian? Cao Pi even disrupted his engagement with Cao Xi. Although from the result, this was a blessing in disguise, but how vicious it was done!

In short, it is really difficult for Ding Yi to make a name for himself in the future. Even if Cao Cao finally succeeded in raising the enemy and finally retired, and handed over the world to the crown prince, it is obviously unlikely that he will have a future, because Cao Cao's power will definitely be handed over to Cao Pi, and he is now a mortal grudge against Cao Pi.

This is also the reason why Ding Yi could only follow Cao Zhi and oppose Cao Pi in history. After all, when Mrs. Ding and Cao Cao divorced, Cao Zhi was still young. To put it bluntly, he was not sensible. It would be better to get back into the relationship.

Of course, the final outcome was so terrible.

"Dad, if we don't marry, we will be the party of Wei Gong in the eyes of the court. We are not a wife or a mother. We will definitely not use it. We have a rift with us because of our aunt's affairs. There are also Cao Pi's bastards who interfere with us. We will definitely not use us. Our family of two thousand stones or even three dukes for generations will be completely broken by your generation. If Wei Gong becomes Wang Mang and Huo Guang in the future, we will not be able to escape."

"If Mr. Wei makes things done, or even become a powerful minister in the future, or even Wang Mang, he will definitely let us go, but what about Cao Pi? Will he let us go? I grew up with him since I was a child, and Su Zhi is so petty. Wouldn't our family still be dead when we are?"

"But it's different to let my aunt marry Uncle Liu. In this way, we have a relationship with the royal family, right? For you, a position of two thousand stones is within your reach, and the emperor will definitely give you an extraordinary promotion to the people of Qiao County, the earliest Qiao County People's Congress. It is not impossible to be the Nine Ministers or even the Three Dukes within a few years. What can Duke Wei do to you? Do you think he is Duke Wei who covered the sky with one hand two years ago?"

Ding Gong frowned and said, "Even if it's not just a hand covering the sky, it's still powerful. The first Duke of the Han Dynasty with a foreign surname in four hundred years. I still think we are family members..."

"A total of hundreds of people in our three families are not all around him, and they are all reunited by Mr. Wei alone. Our Ding family was originally the family of the Three Dukes, not the follower of his Cao family, nor the follower of Mr. Wei himself. Our three families have been loyal and kind for generations, and they are all meritorious of the founding of the Han Dynasty. If a rebellion occurs among these three families, will we all have to follow this rebellion? Normally, shouldn't we try every means to draw a clear line with this rebellion?"

Ding Gong heard this and was really a little shaken. Ding Yi hit the railway while the hot: "Father, don't hesitate. If only one thing happens to Mr. Wei, we can still avoid the destruction of a family by taking advantage of the royal marriage. We can also try our best to reap the Cao family and Xiahou family. We bet on both sides and invest insurance. Is there anything wrong? Father! This is not for the future of our father and son, but for the entire Ding family, for the three surnames of Ding Cao and Xiahou, and for the entire Qiao County, we are persuading you!"

This matter is obviously a bit unlucky, but why do you feel much more comfortable after hearing what Ding Yi said?

"But... you don't know your aunt's temper. If you don't marry again, who will marry? Can I, the brother, control me? If I could control her, she would have remarried Meng De long ago. Will our family still reach this point today?"

Ding Yi was also embarrassed when he heard this: "This is my aunt's temperament... Dad, please tell her well, for our family and for herself. Do you think who else dares to marry her except Uncle Liu? Is it easier to live a widowed life?"

……………………

On the other hand, when this marriage, which was not even a shadow, was rumored to be rumored, someone was even more anxious than Ding Gong.

In the Tingwei Mansion, Guo Jia looked at the woman who dared to come to find her in the middle of the night, who was bold enough to look for her, black clothes, black robe and black hood, covering her whole body. For a moment, she didn't know what to do and hurriedly drove away all the servants who served on both sides, but she left them alone and widowed to live in the same room, but she felt even more inappropriate.

I wish I could faint immediately after the old illness relapsed.

"Why are you here?! Why are you here in the middle of the night? Don't bring me with you if you are willing to die!"

Queen Guo smiled and took off her hood, revealing her bright face, and said with a smile: "What does it matter if I see my own brother? Look at you like you, as if I can eat you, don't worry, the emperor won't know it, and even with his personality, he won't think too much."

"Is this something I think about too much? At this moment, I don't know how many people are looking forward to something happening to me to get rid of me. You are here to make things worse! The struggle in the harem is too easy, right?"

When Queen Guo heard this, she smiled bitterly and said, "It is because the harem battle is dangerous, so I have to ask my brother for help."

"What can I do to you?"

"I heard that the emperor's uncle wants to marry Ding?"

Guo Jia frowned and said, "I haven't even said one of my eight characters yet. Who can marry Mrs. Ding just wants to? Why do you care about this?"

"If the emperor's uncle really marry Mrs. Ding's family will be the royal relative. Hahaha, the Ding family is the royal relative, this is too interesting, isn't it? Ding Gong will become the governor of Yanzhou, which is recommended by Xiahou Dun. Will Duke Wei still have people who can trust at that time? My brother shouldn't have done anything to claim to be a loyal minister of Duke Wei?"

Guo Jia narrowed his eyes and said, "But I still don't understand, what does this have to do with you."

"It's a big relationship. My brother has been with Duke Wei for so many years. He should have more or less understand the family affairs of Duke Wei. The queen's biological mother, Mrs. Liu, died early, and it seems that she was raised by Mrs. Ding."

When Guo Jia heard this, his face changed suddenly. He narrowed his eyes and said, "I know that you are deeply favored by the emperor. I also know that you are very smart and talented than the officials in the court. But you have crossed the line for this matter. No, you should ask!"

Queen Guo continued as if she couldn't hear the anger in Guo Jia's words: "The emperor has always been far-sighted. It is difficult for anyone to stop what he wants to accomplish, but in terms of this matter, I seem to be able to really mess with it. If my brother refuses to cooperate with me, then I can only go to find someone else to cooperate."

Guo Jia heard this for a long time and said, but after a while, he said, "Isn't it good to be a noble person? Is it good to be a rich and prosperous life for the rest of my life, and live a good life under the favor of the emperor. Isn't it good? Don't pursue things that do not belong to you, as they will bring you a catastrophe."

"Why didn't I see that I was not going to be a catastrophe? Not to mention the favor of the emperor, the Guo family in Yangdi is now different from the past. The emperor values ​​law. Even for the sake of his brother, could he still kill me?"

As he said that, Queen Guo touched her belly with her hand and said, "Walking against the current, if you don't advance, you will retreat. Don't you all know about the matter of not being in harmony with the queen? The emperor now favors me and loves me, but did Emperor Gaozu love Miss Qi back then? I was also afraid of being made into a human pig. Even if it was not for me or for my children, there were some things that should be fought for."

"Are you pregnant?"

"It's been more than three months."

Guo Jia was silent for a moment and said, "You are outside the court and me, and the entire Guo family, no one dares to make you a human pig."

"If you are willing to help me, you can help now. If you are unwilling to help me, I can also find someone else."

"I don't believe that in such a big thing in the world, you can control the emperor's decision."

"I can't control the emperor, but it's too easy to guide Cao Xi. It's not easy for a stupid woman to do things, but it's very easy to think of bad things."

When Guo Jia heard this, he nodded. He had already guessed most of what Queen Guo wanted to do, what she could do, and what she wanted to do.

After all, Queen Guo has the insignificant idea of ​​becoming a queen.

To be honest, if Cao Xi dies or if Duke Wei breaks apart with the emperor, she is indeed the best choice for the queen. Whether from the perspective of family affairs or favor, Queen Guo is the best choice for the next queen.

If Mrs. Ding really remarries Liu Bei, Liu Bei will become Cao Xi's stepfather. Behind the queen are Cao Cao and Liu Bei's two fathers, it will be too difficult to move them down. To be extreme, Cao Xi rebelled in the harem, and the position of the rear is probably still as stable as Mount Tai.

Thinking of this, Guo Jia simply closed his eyes and started to think.

But what he was thinking about was not whether to help his sister, but... could he kill this woman?

Zhang Yu should be helping him.
