When Xiang Qian looked at the woman, he knew her background through the system.

[Attribute: Deceiving her husband will reduce the luck of the man she doesn't love by 50%. Her first husband, He Xian, died early, and her son, He Yan, became a posthumous child.] His father-in-law He Jin attempted to violate him but failed, and was later killed by the Ten Attendants. Cao Cao's life is hard to resist.
If Yin Xue 'er fell in love with a man, her husband's luck would be increased by 50%!
That stunning young woman had a world-renowned father-in-law, General He Jin.
He Jin had a son named He Xian. He married a beautiful wife, Madam Yin, and gave birth to a son named He Yan. After He Jin was murdered by eunuchs, Dong Zhuo entered the capital, deposed Liu Bian, and poisoned Empress He. He Jin's family declined from then on. He Xian had already passed away when He Jin was still alive. He Yan was actually a posthumous son.
Cao Cao had long heard of Madam Yin's beauty. When He Jin gained power, he naturally didn't dare to have any improper thoughts. Now that He Jin had fallen and He Xian had died, Cao Cao happily brought Madam Yin to his residence and made her a concubine. He also adopted the young He Yan as his stepfather.
Did you see that? Cao Cao was not only a wife, but also a hero.
Later on, there was a Cao Wei general named Qin Lang whose biological father was Qin Yilu, a general under Lu Bu. After Lu Bu was defeated by Cao Cao, Qin Yilu's wife, Du, was taken in by Cao Cao. Qin Yilu's son, Qin Lang, was also taken in by Cao Cao as an adopted son. It was rumored that Cao Pi was also a hero, and Cao Rui was Yuan Xi's son.
When He Jin gained power, he looked down on Cao Cao because he was the descendant of a eunuch. At the critical moment, Cao Cao had offered him advice several times, but he was either mocking or making things difficult for him. He didn't even care about the 'junior' Cao Cao's 'child'. The world was unpredictable and wonderful. Many years later, Cao Cao married He Jin's daughter-in-law. According to seniority, she was indeed He Jin's junior.
The baby in the swaddling clothes was He Yan. When he grew up, he would be a famous handsome man. He was handsome and his face was delicate and white. Therefore, Emperor Ming of Wei, Cao Rui, suspected that his face was covered with a thick layer of white powder. Once, in the summer, Cao Rui sent someone to find him and rewarded him with hot soup noodles to eat. After a while, he was drenched in sweat and could only wipe his sweat with the clothes he was wearing. However, after he wiped his sweat, his face looked even paler. Only then did Cao Rui believe that he had not applied powder. Later generations used the phrase "Fu Fen He Lang" as an allusion to describe a person's fair and beautiful face.
His son's skin was so fair. Of course, a large part of it was inherited from his mother, and a little from his father. It could be said that it was the result of good birth and upbringing.
Many people treated He Jin as a butcher and thought that he was a vulgar and ugly person. In fact, He Jin's half-sister, Empress Dowager He, was famous for her beauty back then, which was why she was favored by Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty.
Of course, it was mainly because Madam Yin Xue's skin was as fair as snow, just like her name. That was why her son had such a good inheritance.
Xiang Qian couldn't help but praise Cao Cao in his heart.
Although Bian Yu-er, Madam Yin, and Yin Xue were not perfect in the eyes of some people, and Madam Yin had even brought a child with her, they were really beautiful!
They were all beautiful women who could topple a country. Such a beauty was like Diao Chan, who had been with Dong Zhuo. Lu Bu didn't mind. Li Zhi did not despise Wu Zetian, who had followed his father. Li Longji didn't mind Yang Yuhuan, who had followed his son. Wu Sangui didn't mind Chen Yuanyuan, who had been a courtesan and had been harmed by Liu Zongmin before!
It was impossible to take everything in such a chaotic world!
He could only find the most beautiful one possible!
Therefore, Xiang Qian agreed with Cao Cao's approach in this aspect!
……
Cao Cao had never asked about Xiang Yu.
After all, that was more than 300 years ago.
The royal family of the Eastern Han Dynasty had a very distant relationship with Liu Bang.
Xiang Yu and Liu Bang fought for hegemony in Chu and Han. Xiang Yu was defeated and committed suicide on the Wujiang River. It was rumored that Xiang Yu did not have any descendants, but it did not mean that the surname Xiang was extinct.
Xiang Yu's uncle, Xiang Bo, was a wise man who understood the times and sought refuge with Liu Bang in time. He was even conferred the title of Marquis and passed down to his descendants.
Cao Cao suspected that Xiang Qian was not a descendant of Xiang Yu, but a descendant of Xiang Bo, but also a descendant of Xiang Yan.
The reason why Xiang Qian claimed to be a descendant of Xiang Yu was probably the same as how Sun Jian, the tiger of Jiangdong, claimed to be a descendant of Sun Wu, Cao Cao claimed to be the descendant of Cao Can, the prime minister of the early Western Han Dynasty, and Liu Bei claimed to be the descendant of King Jing of Zhongshan. They were all trying to find a prominent ancestor to show that they were the descendants of nobles and not ordinary people.
Cao Cao was very assured that Xiang Qian was in his army because he felt that Xiang Qian's claim to be the descendant of the Western Chu Overlord, Xiang Yu, basically cut off the possibility of independence. After all, this was still the world of the Liu family. No one would rely on Xiang Yu's descendant!
In fact, Xiang Qian had thought about this problem long ago. If there was no system, according to his surname, he could only be someone else's lackey in the late Eastern Han Dynasty. It was absolutely impossible for him to be independent!
However, he had the system. When he was completely familiar with this time and space, he would gain enough fame and be able to trample on the dignity of the Liu Han royal family to the end. Then, he would be able to establish himself as king!
At the very least, after Cao Cao or Cao Ang usurped the throne, Xiang Qian would raise an army to rebel. This would have no effect at all because Cao Cao had already trampled on the last bit of face of the Liu Han royal family. The Liu Han royal family would have already been thrown into the trash heap of history. No one would care about the Chu Han hegemony!
Of course, that was in the distant future. At least in the next few years, Xiang Qian would be grinding his reputation, increasing his strength, accumulating food, building walls, and slowly becoming king!
