Bao Zheng married two wives and one concubine all his life. Why didn't he know he had a son until he was nearly sixty?
1. Bao Zheng has no plans to celebrate his 60th birthday. Six years ago, Bao Zheng's son died young, leaving only a child who was only a few months old. Although he lost his son in his later years, at least he still has blood. But the year before Bao Zheng's 60th birthday, his grandson died again, and now the only pulse of the Bao family is gone. It is a great blow to a 60-year-old man that his son's children passed away one after another within five years. If my daughter-in-law, Cui Shi, hadn't urged the banquet, the family might not have such a warm popularity. Bao Zheng is very grateful to this daughter-in-law. She was very virtuous when her son was alive. After his death, she took care of the two old people wholeheartedly and refused to leave the Bao family.
Second, Bao Zheng's surprise was during the banquet. Cui Shi came to Bao Zheng with a boy less than one year old and knelt down and said that he was Bao Zheng's own flesh and blood. Get the truth of the matter under detailed inquiry. When Dong Shi married Bao Zheng, the maid who served her at that time also followed the young lady to Fu Bao. In ancient times, miss's personal maid was to follow her to Tong's home and serve her at any time. And this boy is the child of Bao Zheng and her personal maid, but at that time the maid named Sun made a mistake and was kicked out by Bao Zheng, but Bao Zheng didn't know she was pregnant at that time.
Third, Cui Shi's good intentions were known to Cui Shi, and he didn't say anything for fear that his father-in-law would be angry. This is the blood of the Bao family, and we can't ignore it. So Cui Shi kept the money and daily necessities from his parents and sent them to the servant girl's house. Soon, the maid gave birth to a boy. Cui Shi's son just died, and she gave all her love to the newborn boy. Later, she took the boy to her side and raised him herself. I told this truth on Bao Zheng's 60th birthday. Bao Zheng learned that Lao Huai's comfort, but he didn't expect God to take care of himself and give the old Bao family incense. So Bao Zheng named the boy Baoyan, which means to continue the incense.
On his 60th birthday, Bao Zheng was very happy to learn that he had another son. He named the child Baoyan, which means continuing the blood of the Bao family. Bao later changed his name to. He became a man like his father Bao Zheng, who was virtuous, strict with himself, fair and just, just like when Bao Qingtian was alive. He was deeply loved by the people and made great contributions to the development of the Song Dynasty.
