Cao Cao's nickname is "Ah Qi", why is it called this name?
It is said that in the area of Haozhou, there has been a strange custom since ancient times, that is, people are noble and lowly. Many people's children have not taken their names until they are twelve years old, afraid that Yama will see the child's name from the book of life and death and take the child to another world; some people give the child a lowly name, hoping not to attract the attention of Yama.
Therefore, some children are called "A dog" and some are called "A cat", hoping that children can grow up safely. Cao Cao's father, Cao Song, was originally a member of the Xiahou family, because the Cao family had no descendants, and the Xiahou family had a good relationship with the Cao family, so the Xiahou family gave a young son to the Cao family, that is, the future Cao Song.
Cao Song later grew up and gave birth to Cao Cao, and the Cao family was ecstatic and treated Cao Cao like a treasure; similarly, because of the fear that King Yan would take Cao Cao away, the Cao family never gave Cao Cao a name. Unfortunately, this time, the Xiahou family could not give birth to a boy, and the Cao family was very worried that the Xiahou family would take Cao Cao back, so they hid Cao Cao even more.
Just how to hide and deceive, or should give Cao Cao a name! Even the puppy born of the old Huang family's female dog next door has the name of "Xiao Hei", is it difficult to call Cao Cao "Xiao Bai"? But as long as Cao Cao is mentioned, the Cao family always hides and hides vaguely, and after a long time, they simply call Cao Cao "Ah Qi", which is the origin of Cao Cao's nickname of "Ah Qi"!
