"A son-in-law who rides on a dragon" is a word with rich cultural implications. It may be a little confusing to have two different versions. However, no matter which version it was, it had a different meaning and story background. Version 1: A son-in-law The term " son-in-law riding a dragon " originated from the period of Emperor Wen of Han Dynasty. It was said that Emperor Wen's favorite minister, Chen Fan, had a daughter who had always wanted to find an outstanding son-in-law. One day, he heard that a distinguished guest in the imperial court was looking for a wife, so he took the initiative to pay a visit. This guest was the favorite of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, Dongfang Shuo. Chen Fan introduced his daughter to Dongfang Shuo and asked him to give his daughter's son-in-law a chance. Dongfang Shuo gladly agreed and told Chen Fan,"Your daughter is the most outstanding woman today. If I want to, I'm willing to be her son-in-law.". Not long after, Dongfang Shuo married Chen Fan's daughter to him. Later on, Chen Fan's daughter became an outstanding female politician and was known as the " son-in-law of a dragon." Version 2: Speed Up The other version of " a son-in-law riding a dragon " was " a fast horse." Legend has it that there was a man who wanted to marry a wife, but he could not find a suitable partner. Therefore, he decided to visit an old man to see if he could get his approval. After the old man heard about the man's situation, he told him,"If you can find a wife within a month, I can make you my fastest horse." The man listened to the old man and found a wife within a month and lived a happy life. No matter which version it was, it meant that a person could use their own advantages to quickly find a suitable partner and live a happy life.
