Cao Cao doesn't recognize this kinship before three generations. He doesn't have this so-called great-grandfather in his heart at all, and even hates it a little. So he didn't shy away from naming his daughter.
Cao Cao may be reluctant to mention his grandfather, because grandpa Cao Teng is a eunuch, that is, a eunuch. Cao Teng's father's name is Cao Jie, and he is an honest farmer. The neighbor said that the pig had run to Cao's house and took Cao's pig away, and he was not angry. Two days later, my neighbor's own family came back. The neighbor was embarrassed and returned the pig of Cao's family. Cao Jie just smiled.
Later, the queen auditioned for a young eunuch to accompany the prince to study. Cao Jie thought it was a shortcut to change his family, so he sent his youngest son, Cao Teng, to the palace and became a clean man. I didn't expect the prince of Cao Teng to hit it off very well, and the relationship was very good. He ate differently from others, and later he sealed Fei Tinghou.
Cao Tenggui is a marquis, but he is barren and has no children, so he brought up a child from Xiahou's family, that is, Cao Cao's father Cao Song. Therefore, Cao Cao has no blood relationship with Cao Shi, and his real ancestor is Xiahou.
Cao Cao is a man of great personality. According to his temper, he would hate Cao Jie for sending his six-or seven-year-old son to the palace to become a eunuch for fame and fortune. For his ancestors, this is a great shame and a big unfilial act. Although his surname is Cao, he is deeply grateful that Cao Teng has laid a good foundation for them. But this grandfather is a eunuch after all, and it's hard to say it well. It is estimated that he is ashamed to mention it.
Since Cao Song, he has been a member of the Cao family, but Cao Cao still regards himself as a descendant of Xiahou's family, so he takes good care of Xiahou's family. His general Xia Houdun is his cousin. Although he has been defeated in many wars, he is very taken care of.
Cao Cao didn't regard Cao Shi as his ancestor, so he didn't consider the taboo when naming his daughter. There is nothing disrespectful about naming his daughter Cao Jie, because he only crossed paths with the Cao family from Cao Teng.
Cao Cao's descendants think so, too. After Cao Pi became emperor, he revered Cao Song as Emperor Tai. After his son Cao Sao ascended the throne, he pursued Cao Teng as the high emperor in Taihe for three years, but there was no matter of Cao Jie.
