Why do Cao Cao and his son have Yuan Shao's daughter-in-law?

In the ninth year of Jian 'an, Cao Cao and his son led the troops to attack Yecheng. Yuan Shao's army could not resist, and Yecheng soon fell. Cao Cao attacked Yecheng, of course, in order to uproot Yuan Shao's forces. There is another reason. He has heard of the reputation of beautiful Luo Zhen and wants to keep it for himself. Unfortunately, Cao Cao's eldest son, Xelloss, took the lead in attacking Yecheng, and Xelloss had long coveted Luo Zhen. After Yecheng was breached, Cao Pi led people straight into the back room of Fu Yuan and found two aristocratic women with long hair and dusty face crying. Cao Pi took a closer look. Although unkempt and unkempt, it was very beautiful. Approaching to wash your face, the younger you are, the older your mother-in-law Liu is. When Luo Zhen was dressed, xelloss saw Luo Zhen's gorgeous face restored to its true colors, and he was swept off his feet. Later, Cao Pi asked his father Cao Cao to give Luo Zhen to himself. In Cao Cao's mind, although he had long admired the beautiful and talented Luo Zhen, it was a pity that his son beat him to it, so he had to give up and pretend that his father nodded in agreement.

Soon, Luo Zhen married xelloss. At that time, Luo Zhen was 23 years old, which was a dazzling and fascinating age. Cao Pi is only eighteen years old, but with the help of his father, he has great ambitions to compete for the world, so he is full of ambition. It is also an extravagant hope that virtuous and gentle Luo Zhen will marry him.

However, despite her kindness and beauty, Luo Zhen married Yuan Shao's son and became Yuan Jia's daughter-in-law. At that time, the Zhen family was a big family in Hebei, and Yuan Shao, who was far away in the north, was the biggest warlord in Hebei, so he sent people to the Zhen family to propose marriage for his second son Yuan. At that time, Yuan Shao's soldiers were better than Ma Zhuang's, and he was in high spirits. He is regarded by the world as a hero who can win the world. The Zhen family dared not offend, so Luo Zhen became the daughter-in-law of Yuan Shaogu. This marriage seems to make the "expensive" predicted by Luo Zhen as a child come true, but who knows, something unexpected happened and Yuan Shao was defeated by the brave Cao Cao.

So, why do Cao Cao and his son covet second-hand goods like Luo Zhen, the daughter-in-law of Yuan Shao? The beauty written by Cao Zhi in Luoshenfu period was actually the legendary beauty Luo Zhen, who was defeated by Yuan Shaobing and captured by Cao Ying. In history, there is a ballad about the Second Bridge in the South of the Yangtze River in Zhen Shi, Hebei Province, which means that the Zhen Shi family is a big family in Hebei Province. Luo Zhen's cleverness and beauty are well known in Hebei. Like Da Qiao and Xiao Qiao, she is a famous beauty in the south of the Yangtze River. Moreover, it is incredible that a woman like Luoshui should let Cao Cao, Cao Zhi and Cao Pi fall for her at the same time.

Luo Zhen was born in a noble family in the late Eastern Han Dynasty. Her ancestor was Han Zhen, the Taibao of the Han Dynasty. Is the daughter of Shangcai county magistrate, and her mother Zhang is a famous beauty in Changshan area. Luo Zhen was smart, cute and lovable since childhood, and a real couple regarded her as the apple of their eye. When Luo Zhen was born, there were all kinds of scenery around her. For example, when she sleeps, her family will always see someone covering her with jade in a trance. Therefore, later generations speculated that Luo Zhen's beauty was amazing, just like a fairy, and her family's illusion was because her skin was as white as jade.

Unfortunately, when Luo Zhen was three years old, his father died. Her mother Zhang was at a loss in pain, so she invited Liu Liang, a famous local fortune teller, to visit her children. Liu Liang is a man of sage like type. When he saw Luo Zhen, he thought Luo Zhen was very expensive. Luo Zhen was born sensible, and her mother was very strict. Therefore, Luo Zhen was quiet when she was young, but she was smart. She likes reading and sewing, but she doesn't like going to the theatre. So, she is very talented. She tried her best to persuade her mother to be kind and open a warehouse to transport grain. Zhen Shiyin was safe and sound in troubled times.

The legendary Luo Zhen is not only born with beauty, but also good at dressing up. Since Luo Zhen was occupied by xelloss, xelloss has kept a very spiritual green snake with a red bead in its mouth. After Luo Zhen entered the palace, he liked the snake very much and combed its hair every morning. Over time, when Green Snake sees Luo Zhen combing her hair, she will automatically arrange her hair into various hairstyles. Luo Zhen also imitated the way the green snake combed her hair. Later, this "snake bun" hairstyle was popular in Wei and Jin Dynasties.

Despite the bitterness of being forced into marriage by Cao Pi, she was kind and filial to Cao Jia. Xelloss is charming, handsome and talented, so Luo Zhen also loves Xelloss. However, Luo Zhen is also very clever. She knows that she is loved for her beauty. After all, she used to be the daughter-in-law of Yuan Shaogu, five years older than Xelloss. So she obeyed in every way and dared not be willful and arrogant. Xelloss is a lecherous, naturally he is happy to see Luo Zhen's eyes.

Because of this, Luo Zhen, as a legendary woman in Hebei, is famous for her beauty. Together with Da Qiao and Xiao Qiao, she was praised as Jiangnan by the world. Cao Cao and his son attacked Yecheng only for their own beauty. Although Luo was really Yuan Shao's daughter-in-law, Xelloss got ahead of his father and got the second-hand goods. Beauty, virtue, softness and Cao Pi are in harmony, and only in the Cao family can they be stable.
