Go to Yuan Shu to tell your fortune.

Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu are both sons of Yuan Feng and half-brothers. During this period, Yuan Shao was an illegitimate child and was not taken seriously. However, after he was adopted by his uncle Cheng Yuan, everything changed.

Cheng Yuan himself is also the son of Yuan Jia, and Yuan Shao inherited Cheng Yuan's incense after adoption, which is no different from the son in the patriarchal clan system. He can inherit all resources of Cheng Yuan, including identity inheritance and property inheritance. If he has a title, he can inherit it. This can't be called an illegitimate child. Yuan Shikai's family will also train Yuan Shao and give him the necessary attention. After all, it is a straight line.

For ancient people, it cannot be overemphasized to pass on incense. The adopted son in the genealogy is the official son, who has the right of inheritance and is legally recognized. Therefore, when introducing the relationship between Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu, history books all say that they are cousins, not brothers, and adopting children is a very serious matter.

For example, if Liu Bei's children were not born in Liu Chan, Liu Feng, who was adopted as Liu Bei's adopted son, also has the right to inherit the throne. Therefore, with Liu Chan, Liu Bei gave Liu a capital punishment.

Another example is Chai Rong of Zhou Shizong, who is also the adopted son of Guo Wei, and will not cause controversy.

Similarly, for people at that time, Yuan Shao would not be regarded as an illegitimate child after adoption. After the adoption, Cao Cao's father was also marked by Cao Zhi, who helped him. Legally, he belongs to the Cao family.

Also, Yuan Jia, a world-famous family, doesn't really think that Yuan Shu is the only one in this generation. It's impossible. Many real bastards have been ignored, which is really low status. Regardless of blood status, people who can stand out in an era are largely inseparable from personal ability. Yuan Shao's own ability is not bad, obviously much higher than Yuan Shu.

For an aristocratic family, it is safe to get the support of the family to enter the court and then develop a personal career. That's how Yuan Shu went.

Yuan Shao didn't do this. He refused to be summoned by the court. During the mourning period, he secretly made a large number of party member. He devoted himself to the struggle against eunuchs early and established political resources outside the family.

After the Yellow turban insurrectionary uprising, he joined the consorts group of the later generals' house headed by He Jin in time and successfully became the core figure.

In the later action to eradicate "Ten Regular Attendants", it can be said that Yuan Shao coordinated the forces of the General's Office and arranged for the elimination of eunuch groups for many times. This skill can be said to be very beautiful If it weren't for Dong Zhuo's accident, it is conceivable that Yuan Shao's reputation must be in full swing.

Even if something happened to Dong Zhuo, what Yuan Shao did was recognized by a large number of party member and outstanding figures.

Morally, there is a reputation for eradicating traitors; Ability, in fact, eliminated the eunuch; The interpersonal circle is full of talented people with good reputation, and they were "forced" to flee because they refused Dong Zhuo to abolish the emperor. These things will make Yuan Shao's reputation go up a storey still higher. Most of his reputation is established through behavioral measures, rather than relying mainly on the strength of his family.

On the other hand, at this time, Yuan Shu's official position is not low, but apart from helping a little in the "anti-official action", nothing can be compared with Yuan Shao, and the gap in ability can be seen.

Anyone who can be called a first-class talent will not have his own opinion. The gap between Yuan Yuan and Yuan Yuan can be analyzed and judged. Yuan Shao's identity is not necessarily worse than Yuan Shu's. Compared with the ability to show, it can be completely ignored, and people will judge for themselves.

Pedigree theory is not the only indicator. Yuan Shu's younger brother, Yuan Ji, is the eldest son, gentle and official. Dong Zhuo was killed during the extermination of Yuan clan, and he didn't become famous, so it still has a lot to do with personal struggle.

Although Yuan Shao is not the best in troubled times, his ability and prestige are the best among governors. He was able to enter Jizhou, break his grandson and own the land of four States, which really left a heavy mark on the end of the Han Dynasty, and was by no means a simple figure.
