Chapter 174 Yang Wuhou

Yangwu Marquis Xue Lu, a native of Xuejia Island in Jiaodong, his father, Xue Gong, was poor and herd cattle for the landlord's family. There was a wasteland in the landlord's house. When Xue Gong was grazing in the field, he was surprised to see a snake and a rabbit fighting among the barren grass, so he discussed with the landlord and begged him to give the wasteland to himself. The landlord agreed, and Xue Gong built a hut here.

A few years later, Xue's wife was in her basin, and it rained heavily. The two commanders were ordered to go to sea. They passed through the hut and entered the house to avoid the rain. The roof magpie gathered, spread their wings and spread their wings and covered the leak one by one by one. When the two saw this, they were terrmented. Then Mr. Xue came out to meet the guests, and the two asked, "What was the master doing just now?" Duke Xue said, "My wife will give birth and take care of her." The two asked, "Have a boy or a girl?" Duke Xue said, "Boy."

The two of them became more and more stunned and said, "The prince will definitely be noble in the future." If not, why did two commanders guard the door for him when he was born? After saying that, he sighed and left.

When Yang Wuhou grew up, he was unkempt, snotty, and not smart. Residents of Xuejia Island are all soldiers. They farm in their spare time and go on an expedition in wartime. This year, it was Xue Gong's turn to perform military service and garrison Liaoyang. Yang Wuhou's brother is the eldest son of the family. It is supposed that he should join the army, so he is unhappy.

Yangwuhou just turned eighteen that year. He was so stupid that he could never marry a daughter-in-law. So he discussed with his brother: "Big brother is worried all day long. He must be worried about being a soldier." The elder brother said, "That's good." Yang Wuhou laughed and said, "This matter is easy to do. As long as my brother gives me his maidservant as his wife, I will serve in military service for you."

The elder brother was overjoyed and immediately held a wedding for his younger brother. Yangwuhou kept his word. After getting married, he immediately led his wife to Liaoyang and walked for dozens of miles. There was a heavy rain. There was a stone cliff beside the road, and the couple ran to the cliff to avoid the rain. The rain stopped, and the two continued to hurry. As soon as they walked a few steps, the stone at the top of the cliff collapsed. Two tigers jumped out of nowhere, quickly approached the couple, possessed their upper bodies, and then disappeared.

Since then, Marquis Yangwu has been extremely brave and elegant. Later, because of his accumulated military achievements, he was awarded the title of Marquis, which was hereditary.

In a blink of an eye, in the years of Apocalypse and Chongzhen, the first Yangwu Marquis had already passed away, and the position was passed down from generation to generation to a public. A father-in-law did not have a son. When he died, he left a posthumous abdomen, and he did not know whether it was a man or a woman. He temporarily handed over the title to the side branch.

At that time, according to the rules, in any hereditary family, if the wife is pregnant, she must report to the court, and the court will appoint a midwife to take care of it until the child is born. A year later, the wife gave birth to a daughter, and her abdomen was still shaking, which seemed to be twins. However, the second child refused to be born for a long time. After 15 years, the midwife also changed several batches and finally gave birth to another boy.

According to the eldest son system, it is natural for the little boy to inherit the title of Marquis of Yangwu. However, he was greedy for power and was reluctant to let go. They spread rumors that the child was not a father-in-law. The government accepted the detention of the midwife for interrogation, and the criminal law was exhausted. The midwife still insisted on her own opinion. The child was indeed the flesh and blood of the Xue family.

The facts are all there. The court handled it impartially, and the child successfully inherited the title.
