Chapter 1744 The red thread of lovesickness, the question of family status
Late spring time.
Nishan Academy.
The first time he saw Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai, Su Mingzhe opened his Dharma eyes curiously, and then saw red lines shooting out from Liang Shanbo's wrist, one of which was tied to Zhu Yingtai's body.
And Su Mingzhe is no stranger to this kind of red line:
“This is—the red line of lovesickness?”
…
"Brother!"
Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai didn't know what Su Mingzhe was thinking. After meeting, they bowed in accordance with etiquette.
"Shanbo, Yingtai, please accompany me to see the mountain chief first. We brothers will talk in detail later!"
As the sworn brother, Su Mingzhe returned the gift and pulled the two of them towards the office of the Academy Headmaster.
At the same time, he did not forget to study the red line between the two.
…
Although the Acacia Red Line and the Yuelao Red Line are somewhat similar in function, they are not essentially the same thing.
The old red thread of the moon was originally tanned with silk threads from the laurel tree on the lunar star.
As for the Acacia Red Thread, although its name is called the Red Thread, it is actually a magical power of law.
…
I saw someone using the Acacia Red Thread magical power on Liang Shanbo, but it was Zhu Yingtai who was bound to the other end.
Su Mingzhe immediately guessed that all this was caused by Yue Lao.
After all, in the first episode of "Butterfly Lovers", Zhu Yingtai made a lot of nonsense in Yue Lao Temple and scolded Yue Lao Hao.
If Su Mingzhe were Yuelao, he would definitely teach this stinky girl Zhu Yingtai a lesson.
…
Su Mingzhe flicked his finger on the red line and felt it.
People who use the red line of lovesickness are not weak, and they also have the strength of Daluo Jinxian.
After confirming the opponent's strength, Su Mingzhe couldn't help but smile.
At most, in half a year, my cultivation will reach the perfection of Daluo Jinxian.
By February or March next year, I will be able to break through to the Hunyuan Golden Immortal.
"Zhu Yingtai, don't worry, I will rescue you soon!"
…
"Mingzhe is here!"
Wang Shiyu learned that Su Mingzhe had returned to the academy and went out to greet him.
Last year, after Su Mingzhe's "The Love of Lotus", "Inscriptions on a Humble Room", and "Ode to Afang Palace" became popular, Nishan Academy also became popular.
As the head of the academy, Wang Shiyu must have a special regard for Su Mingzhe, a hero.
"teacher!"
Su Mingzhe, Liang Shanbo, and Zhu Yingtai bowed politely together.
"You guys come in too."
After Wang Shiyu saw Su Mingzhe, he had thousands of words to express his gratitude, but when the words came to his lips, he swallowed them back.
…
Everyone sat down in the study room.
Wang Shiyu's mood calmed down a bit, and he began to ask about the problems Su Mingzhe encountered in governing after arriving in Wuxing County, and how he dealt with the problems after encountering them.
Su Mingzhe picked some things he could talk about and explained them in detail.
Something like a powerful family uniting to bring about the winter plague must be concealed.
After hearing about Su Mingzhe's approach to power and handling of problems, Wang Shiyu couldn't help but admire:
"Mingzhe, you are better than the teacher. When I was an official, if I had your ability, I would be able to be one of the three ministers and nine ministers now."
Su Mingzhe immediately said modestly:
"Teacher, I have given you too much praise. You are very open-minded and noble-tempered, and you are incompatible with the currents of the world... I am a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers, and I came out recklessly."
"Mingzhe, 'a humble gentleman is humble enough to feed himself'. This is the attitude of a human being. However, now that you have just entered the officialdom, you should indeed have the attitude of 'newborn calves are not afraid of tigers'! In this regard, I can't compare with you.
, when I first entered the officialdom..."
Wang Shiyu spoke earnestly and thoughtfully. He talked about some situations he encountered when he was an official and how he handled them. In the end, he offended a large number of people.
At the end of his words, he warned Su Mingzhe not to forget his original intention.
Unknowingly.
Su Mingzhe sat in Wang Shiyu's study until noon.
Wang Shiyu took the opportunity to invite Su Mingzhe to his home for lunch.
Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai were also invited.
…
The Wang family has no servants.
In other words, Wang Shiyu arranged for all his servants to work in the academy.
On weekdays, Wang Shiyu's wife and daughter are doing the housework in the Wang family.
Su Mingzhe and the others followed Wang Shiyu and when they arrived at Wang's house, they saw Wang Shiyu's wife and her daughter setting out food.
"Master's wife!"
Su Mingzhe respected Wang Shiyu as a person, and he also loved Wang Shiyu's wife and respected her.
"Mingzhe is back!"
When Mrs. Wang saw Su Mingzhe and the others arriving, she quickly shouted towards the kitchen with a smile:
"Xiaolan, Xiaohui, come out quickly and see who is coming?"
Mrs. Wang's surname is He. She was extremely beautiful when she was young. Even now, she is still a beautiful woman with charm.
It is a pity that the He family was of average origin, far inferior to Wang Shiyu's Taiyuan Wang family.
When the two got married and started a family, they were not recognized by the family. This was the main reason why Wang Shiyu was targeted by the wealthy family when he was an official.
…
Not long after, Wang Lan and Wang Hui came out and greeted Su Mingzhe politely.
In Wuxing County, Su Mingzhe took Wang Yun's sister Wang Yanzhi as his concubine, and in theory became a relative of the Wang family.
In terms of seniority, he is now Wang Lan, Wang Hui's 'brother-in-law'.
Although the two women did not dare to talk to Su Mingzhe as 'sister-in-law', they still felt a lot closer to each other.
Soon, the dishes and chopsticks were placed.
Everyone started to eat.
Su Mingzhe suddenly discovered that Wang Lan and Wang Hui looked at Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai too affectionately.
When he opened his Dharma Eyes and took a look, as expected, one of the red threads shot out from Liang Shanbo's wrist was wrapped around Wang Lan's ankle.
Zhu Yingtai's ankles were also tied with a large number of red threads, one of which was wrapped around Wang Hui.
"This Yue Lao is so cruel!"
Su Mingzhe guessed Yue Lao's vicious thoughts after a brief guess.
This means that Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai are burdened with countless love debts, entangled in various causes and effects, and have no chance of a happy marriage in their lives.
…
"That's all, I'm definitely not jealous of the red line on the two of them, I just can't bear for others to be dragged down by the two of them!"
When Su Mingzhe said goodbye after dinner, he helped Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai untie all the messy red threads on their bodies.
As for the red thread of lovesickness, Su Mingzhe's magic power can't suppress the other party for the time being, and he can't untie it, so the two can only be entangled for a while.
…
I stayed at Nishan Academy for three days.
Su Mingzhe gained a lot. In addition to getting more than a dozen Yuelao red threads from Liang Zhu and Liang Zhu, he also successfully obtained the list of graduating students of Nishan Academy from Wang Shiyu.
Nishan Academy has been in operation for more than ten years and has graduated more than 300 students.
Among the graduates who are still alive, there are at least more than a hundred who are involved in official circles.
For Su Mingzhe, this is a fellow disciple with a passionate love.
At critical moments, this incense love can definitely be of great use.
…
Mid-March.
Su Mingzhe returned to his hometown in Yuyao.
While having dinner.
Father Su rushed back from outside. When he saw his son, he started nagging him non-stop, as if he was full of resentment.
"Dad, did someone make you angry?"
Su Mingzhe was a little curious, who else dared to provoke the Su family in Yuyao now.
"It has nothing to do with anyone else. It's just your dad who is petty."
Su's mother held her son and did not let him interfere with her man's troubles.
After hearing his woman's words, Su's father immediately refused:
"Why am I so small-minded? Those guys are obviously bullying me too much!"
Father Su was so angry that he explained the reason for the incident.
After Su Mingzhe heard this, he shook his head helplessly. It turned out that it was his family background and his status as a merchant that caused trouble!
