You must know that during the Republic of China, the entire Northeast belonged to Zhang Zuolin. It is not an exaggeration to use the words "monstrous power" to describe Zhang Zuolin.
However, we know that powerful people in ancient times liked to marry women younger than themselves. But why did Zhang Zuolin let 14-year-old Zhang Xueliang marry 18-year-old Yu Fengzhi?
It stands to reason that Zhang Xueliang is Zhang Zuolin's son. Zhang Zuolin would at least find a girl of the same age for his son, but what makes people feel surprised is that. Zhang Zuolin's favorite daughter-in-law turned out to be Yu Fengzhi, who was four years older than his son. So why would Zhang Zuolin be willing to let Yu Fengzhi be his wife-in-law?
In fact, the reason why Zhang Zuolin did this was for another reason. First of all, Yu Fengzhi is older than Zhang Xueliang. Generally, older girls can take care of others, and Zhang Zuolin also has this plan.
However, there were many girls older than Zhang Xueliang at that time. Why did Zhang Zuolin only fall in love with Yu Fengzhi?
This is related to Yu Fengzhi. In ancient times, people valued being well-matched, and so did Zhang Zuolin. Zhang Zuolin is the king of the Northeast and has a prominent family background, while Yu Fengzhi's family conditions are also good. Yu Fengzhi's father, Yu Wendou, was a wealthy man at the time. His family was extremely wealthy, no worse than Zhang Zuolin's family.
However, even so, there are still many people who are close to Zhang Xueliang, and the reason why Zhang Zuolin finally chose Yu Fengzhi as his daughter-in-law without hesitation was related to Yu Wendou. Zhang Zuolin is a loyal person, and Yu Wendou is Zhang Zuolin's best brother.
In fact, the two of them still have a history. At the beginning, Zhang Zuolin was not the king of Northeast China, but just a subordinate of Xu Shichang. At that time, bandits were raging in the Northeast, so Zhang Zuolin was ordered to quell the bandits. However, the bandits were too powerful, and Zhang Zuolin was captured alive by the bandits.
If no one came to rescue him, Zhang Zuolin might have been there.
At this time, Yu Fengzhi's father stepped forward. After hearing about the incident, he asked his friends to rescue Zhang Zuolin. As mentioned before, Zhang Zuolin was a man of loyalty. At that time, he and Yu Wendou became sworn brothers. ?
After becoming sworn brothers, the two people supported each other. Zhang Zuolin established a firm foothold in the Northeast, and the relationship between Yu Wendou and Zhang Zuolin became even closer. Later, Zhang Zuolin saw that his son had reached the age of marriage. In order to further establish a good relationship with Yu Wendou, he asked Zhang Xueliang to marry Yu Fengzhi. ?
