Chastity Layman 2

Chapter 326 The Millennium Qin Family
Xianyang.

On the north bank of the Weishui River, the [-] mu soybean seedlings of the Qin family have withered yellow leaves and full pods, and the harvest season is about to enter.

In the villa by the water near the edge of the field, the officials of the Ministry of Rites who are proficient in genealogy are discussing with Qin Lang about Qin Lang's family tree. The Ministry of Rites, following the order of the emperor, has dispatched a group of genealogists to form a Qin Lang family tree compiling team. He spent a lot of energy studying the history of the Qin family.

"According to our research, the ancestor of Yi Guogong is believed to have come from the surname Ji, one of the eight surnames in ancient times, after the Yellow Emperor. The surname Qin was derived from the surname Ji, which originated in the Qilu area. Among the 72 sage students of Confucius, There are four people with the surname Qin."

According to the research of the officials of the Ministry of Rites, because of the four Qin surnamed students of Confucius, there were also two hall names of the Qin surname, one was Leshantang, and the other was Sanxiantang.Leshantang is because Confucius once praised people surnamed Qin for their good morals and kindness, and the three of Sanxiantang refer to the large number.

Qin Lang admired these guys for being able to go all the way back to the era of the Three Emperors and Five Emperors.

Then they talked about some famous people from the ancestors of Qin Lang's family, such as Bian Que, a genius doctor in the Warring States Period. It turned out that his real surname was Qin, his name was Xu, his style was Yueren, and his nickname was Lu Yi. At that time, he was a famous doctor in Bohai County of Yan State. So people at that time used Bian Que, a genius doctor in the ancient Yellow Emperor era, to honor him.

Only then did Qin Lang know that the real Bian Que was a famous doctor in the age of mythology, and Qin Huan was just the second Bian Que.

Then, during the Warring States period, Qin Kai, a famous general of the Yan State, was said to have presided over the construction of the Great Wall that was more than 4000 miles long.

Qin Wuyang, grandson of Qin Kai, was the companion of Jing Ke who assassinated King Qin.

Then their descendants, in the Han Dynasty, moved from Shandong to Fufeng, Guanzhong. Later, Qin Xi, who lived in Fufeng Maoling, had served as the prefect of two thousand stones, and there were four brothers from the same clan who served as two thousand stones. The post of prefect, so there is the name of Fufeng Wanshi Qin's family.

Qin Peng, the sixth grandson of Qin Xi, and his younger sister were noblemen during the Han Dynasty. Qin Peng later participated in the Northern Expedition to the Huns, and was awarded the title of Shanyang Taishou after accumulating meritorious service. After that, he served as the Yingchuan Taishou. His two younger brothers also served as Shesheng in the Han Dynasty. A senior military post like a lieutenant.

Later, it was the branch of Qin Peng who settled in Licheng, Qizhou. After that, Qin Xiu, the seventh ancestor of Qin Qiong, served as Doctor Jin Ziguanglu and Tai Changqing of the Western Jin Dynasty, and another ancestor served as the prefect of Leling. The officials are getting smaller and smaller.

Qin Qiong's great-grandfather, Qin Xiaoda, was only the county magistrate of Guangnian in the Northern Wei Dynasty. His grandfather, Qin Fangtai, only served as the official secretary of the Northern Qi Dynasty.

"The Qin family in Licheng is incredible. It originated from the surname Ji. It was a student of Confucius. In the Han Dynasty, it was even the name of the Wanshi Qin family. Later, it settled in the Licheng branch. There have also been three generations of eunuchs, and all generations have been officials. Officials, but in your generation, Yi Guogong, it is even more terrible. One family, two prime ministers and four dukes! It has already surpassed the name of Wanshi, the ancestor of the Han Dynasty."

It's really hard for these few officials to sort out such a brilliant family tree all the way.

Qin Lang also heard from Qin Qiong before that the Qin family in Licheng really respected Qin Peng as the ancestor, and the sixth generation was indeed the Qin family with the third assistant Wanshi. As for whether it was among the 72 sage students of Confucius Students with the surname of Qin are more difficult to verify.

But it's really amazing that people can actually come up with such a pedigree.However, he felt that there should be no hard evidence for Wanshi Qin's family to go up, just like Li Shimin's family insisted on saying that their family is after Lao Tzu, 100% blind recognition of their ancestors.

However, Qin Lang discovered a problem after reading the family tree they sorted out. Qin Xiu, the seventh patriarch of Qin Qiong, was actually the grandson of Qin Yilu.

Who is Qin Yilu?Those who are familiar with the Three Kingdoms certainly know that it is Lu Bu's general.What Qin Yilu is most famous in the Three Kingdoms is not how capable he is in fighting under Lu Bu, but because his ex-husband Du Shi was accepted by Cao Cao, a good wife.

When Qin Yilu was sent as an envoy to Yuan Shu under Lu Bu, Yuan Shu married the clan daughter of the Han Dynasty to Qin Yilu. At that time, Qin Yilu's wife Du Shi stayed in Xiapi with her child Qin Lang.

Later, Cao Cao besieged Lu Bu in Xiapi, and after the city was broken, Guan Yu asked Cao Cao to marry Du Shi to himself. Cao Cao originally agreed, but later saw that Du Shi was very beautiful, so he regretted it and took it as his own.

So Qin Lang became Cao Cao's stepson.

Qin Yilu later surrendered to Cao Cao, but was persuaded by Zhang Fei to surrender, but he repented not long after, and was killed by Zhang Fei.

Cao Cao is good to his stepson Qin Lang, and he also likes Qin Lang's cautious and low-key words and deeds. He also said that no one in the world loves his stepson as much as he does.

Later, when Emperor Wei Ming was in power, Qin Lang was highly valued. He first served as General Xiaoqi and gave Shizhong.

Later, Qin Lang's son Qin Xiu abandoned martial arts and literature, and served as a doctor for more than 20 years during the reign of Emperor Wu of Jin Dynasty.

After Qin Xiu, the Qin family in Licheng studied literature for generations, and many of their descendants served as civil servants.

It wasn't until Qin Qiong joined the army at the end of the Sui Dynasty that he started his career as a general to protect his children.

"Are you sure?" Qin Lang asked.

When the officials of the Ministry of Rites saw Qin Lang asking about Qin Yilu and Qin Lang's father and son, they naturally knew that this was referring to Cao Cao's kidnapping of Yilu's wife to adopt Qin Lang.

"Indeed."

After Du took Qin Lang with Cao Cao back then, he also gave birth to two sons and one daughter for Cao Cao, which Cao Cao liked more, otherwise, Cao Lang would not have been able to be the auxiliary minister of Cao Wei later.

It's just a pity that the Sima family usurped Cao Wei later, otherwise the status of the Qin family would be even higher.

Sanxian Hall, Leshan Hall, Wanshi Qin Family...

After a closer look, the Qin family is indeed not an ordinary family. Qin Lang used to think that the Qin family was just a small local powerful family whose fortunes had long since fallen. He did not expect that his family's ancestors were also rich, not only once, but also experienced great ups and downs. Several times.

From one of the 72 sages of Confucius in the Spring and Autumn Period, to the Wanshi Qin family in the Western Han Dynasty, to the assistant minister of Emperor Wei Ming, then a doctor in the Western Jin Dynasty, a county magistrate in the Northern Qi Dynasty, and then to the general and Duke of the Tang Dynasty today.

From Wen to Wu, then from Wu to Wen, and then to Wu, going around for more than a thousand years, this vitality is really too tenacious.

Originally, Qin Lang planned to respect Qin Peng, the prefect of Shanyang in the Han Dynasty, as the ancestor, but the officials of the Ministry of Rites said that the ancestor of the Qin family was Qin Shang, one of the 72 sages of Confucius.He also said that Qin Shang was from Lu, and his father, Jinfu, and Confucius' father and uncle, Lianghe, were both famous for their bravery.

The meaning in the words is that the Qin family is capable of writing and martial arts, and has been passed down for thousands of years, which is the seed of the ancestors.

Thinking of Qin Lang so much, what can Qin Lang say.

"Since you have figured out the inheritance of the Qin family and traced it back to this point, let Qin Shang be the ancestor of my Qin family in Licheng."

In fact, there is no need for Qin Lang to do anything about the next thing. These officials from the Ministry of Rituals will naturally do well for Qin Lang. The general supervisor will be responsible for building the Qin Family Temple, and the Ministry of Rites will be responsible for making the Qin family's ancestral tablets and various sacrificial tablets. Ritual utensils, this thing is very particular, there are etiquette rules everywhere, and it needs to be made by the court and bestowed by the emperor.

They will also compile a complete family tree of the Qin family based on the sorted out genealogy of the Qin family, and catalog the celebrities of the Qin family in the Qin family biography.

This is a labor-intensive task, and a lot of information has to be found in the history books, biographies and epitaphs of the past. Of course, they will definitely add some compliments and good words, and they may even arrange some small stories on the Qin family.

In short, it is beautification.

Qin Lang smiled and asked Ah Huang to bring a box of gold, and gave each of these officials ten taels of gold, and another 100 taels of gold, and asked them to take them back to the officials who participated in compiling the family tree and biography of the Qin family Scholars share the profits.

If you want others to say good things about your family, you must spend some money.

Fortunately, Qin Lang is rich, although he himself doesn't care much about these things, but this is the facade of a family after all, and it's good to decorate when conditions permit, after all, the royal family cannot be exempt from customs.

When the officials saw that Duke Yi was so generous, they all smiled, and after a few excuses, they accepted it.Officials and literati write epitaphs and biographies for others, and don't they also receive money for the money.

The hall name of the Qin family has also been officially confirmed as Sanxian Hall. The Qin family has produced so many sages and celebrities, so it is only natural to have this hall name.

Qin Shang, one of the 72 sages under the respect of Confucius, was the ancestor, and the Qin family in Licheng immediately became taller, not worse than the old noble families like King Cui Luzheng, and even a little bit stronger.

The plaques of Leshantang and Wanshiqin's family will naturally have to order two, and they will be hung together in the family temple.

Since the family temple is dedicated to the fifth generation, the Qin family's family temple has five entrances. Anyway, the emperor rewarded [-] mu of land next to the Duke of Yi's mansion, so it is natural to use all of it.

The family temple on Qin Qiong's side in Qinrenfang is easy, just copy a past from here, and even the genealogy and family inheritance are all ready-made.

When resting in the Yuxuanji room at night, before going to bed, he confessed that he would draw out a sum of money to help build the family temples on both sides. This meal has to be taken care of, not only has to take care of being full, but also has to eat well.

"At that time, we will kill a few more pigs. We will also kill more sheep, chickens, and ducks in our family. Building a family temple is a big deal. We can't travel on business. We will give red envelopes to those who come to do things, and each will reward some money. No matter whether it is an official or a craftsman and hired labor, it cannot be missing."

Yu Xuanji leaned against Qin Lang's arms, stroking his chest hair with one hand on Qin Lang's chest, "It's all written down."

"Sanlang, you see it's getting late, let's go to bed early."

She deliberately emphasized the word sleeping.

"Again?"

"I see how cute Jun'er is these days, and I really want to have a baby with Saburo."

Qin Lang was a little overwhelmed.

After Yuxiao gave birth to Qin Lang's son, now that the mother is more expensive than the son, she has also become the emperor of the imperial family. It's like a sparrow flying on a branch and turning into a phoenix. How can Yu Xuanji, who is from the same background, not be envious.

Now let alone Yu Xuanji, the concubines in Qin Lang's backyard who have been favored, none of them are secretly trying to conceive a child, and if they give birth to a boy, their status will be stable.

"Okay, let's fix it!"

"Slave blows the lamp first!"

"Blowing on the lamp, it's interesting under the lamp!"
