Why did Guo Wei, the great-grandfather of the Zhou Dynasty, have a daughter of his own, but not pass on the throne to his daughter-in-law but to Chai Rong, who has no blood relationship with him?
This is the genius of Guo Wei. At that time, the later Zhou Dynasty did not unify the world, and the separatist forces such as the Northern Han Dynasty and the Southern Tang Dynasty did not have uniforms. Qidan in the north is more threatening. Moreover, in this troubled times, the power and influence of the military commanders in the later Zhou Dynasty are also very great. If the throne passes to his daughter, he is likely to die. Instead, it is better to pass the throne to the equally talented Chai Rong. Only Chai Rong can inherit and carry forward his career and ensure the safety of future generations.
