Chapter 1748 Sima Pi proclaimed himself emperor, Yue Lao explained the reason
"My nephew is indeed young, but if you have ambitions, you are not as young as you are. If you have no ambitions, you will live a hundred years in vain! Compared with you, I am really ashamed!"
Zhu's father smiled and pulled Su Mingzhe to chat.
Not long after, the two saw Zhu Yingtai walking in from outside dressed in neat men's clothing.
It was Su Mingzhe who wrote the letter in advance. Zhu Yingtai had no choice but to communicate with her family and ask everyone to help conceal her identity as a man disguised as a woman.
It's just that Zhu's father, a 'daughter slave', looked extremely ugly when he saw his daughter and Su Mingzhe holding hands and talking and laughing happily.
…
Su Mingzhe stayed at Zhu's house for three days, and Zhu's father's face became ugly for three days.
Three days later.
Su Mingzhe and Zhu Yingtai said goodbye reluctantly.
…
Return to Yuyao again.
It is different from the deserted scene in front of the door last year.
Under Su Mingzhe's operation, the Yuyao Su family has upgraded its family status and become the first prominent family in Yuyao.
As the New Year approaches, other famous families and local powerful people will come to the Su family to pay homage to the dock.
When these aristocratic families received the news of Su Mingzhe's return, they came to visit him one after another.
…
The New Year has passed in a blink of an eye.
In the first month.
Emperor Yan Murong Jun, who was seriously ill and bedridden, passed away.
When the news came back to Jiangnan, it was already February.
February.
Jin Emperor Sima Dan, who learned of the death of Emperor Yan, fell seriously ill and died after falling into the water while playing on Xuanwu Lake.
March.
The ministers discussed and elected Langya King Sima Pi as the new emperor.
No one in this era knew that Sima Pi ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor one year earlier than in history.
…
"Congratulations to Your Majesty for being crowned the Great Treasure. I, the Great Jin Dynasty, have finally returned to Zhengshuo!"
Su Mingzhe expressed his congratulations to Sima Pi.
Sima Pi was very satisfied with Su Mingzhe's congratulations:
"Prime Minister, I have said that our monarch and his ministers share weal and woe and should be happy together!"
…
Mid April.
Under the protection of three thousand elites led by Su Mingzhe, Sima Pi arrived safely in Jiankang City.
Early May.
Sima Pi officially ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor.
After he became emperor, among the first batch of meritorious officials awarded, Su Mingzhe was among the best. For his military exploits in resisting the Yan army last year, he was named the Marquis of Kaiyang.
Kaiyang is Kaiyang County, the capital of Langya Kingdom.
Sima Pi rewarded Su Mingzhe with his feudal status during the Qianlong period, which was enough to show his feelings for Su Mingzhe.
In addition to the title, Su Mingzhe was also appointed as General Zhenglu, a third-rank officer.
In fact, it was not Sima Pi's intention to appoint or remove Su Mingzhe as general.
When Sima Pi first came to Jiankang, he was very high-spirited and wanted to develop his ambitions and hegemony. Naturally, he was reluctant to let Su Mingzhe, his right-hand man, leave him.
Unfortunately, those wealthy families were afraid that there were too many people close to Sima Pi and it would be difficult to control him, so they all gave advice one after another.
As the saying goes, "A thousand troops are easy to get, but a general is hard to find."
The Yan and Qin people are too strong, and there are no strong generals like Su Mingzhe on the border, who are not enough to protect their homes and the country, etc.
In the end, Su Mingzhe was abandoned from the court and became one of the generals guarding the frontier.
…
"Mingzhe, I am sorry for you. If you have any other requests, just ask them. I will try my best to satisfy you!"
When Sima Pi summoned Su Mingzhe alone, he looked ashamed.
In his opinion, Su Mingzhe gave him help in the nick of time, but after he became rich, he allowed Su Mingzhe to continue to fight on the battlefield. This was his fault.
"Your Majesty, there is no need to blame yourself. Now the entire Jin Dynasty belongs to your Majesty. No matter where you go, you will serve your Majesty..."
Su Mingzhe really wanted to go to the border, but seeing Sima Pi looking lonely, he could only feel "sad" for a while.
After persuading for a while, when Sima Pi calmed down, Su Mingzhe smiled happily and said:
"Your Majesty, I really have something I need your Majesty's help with."
…
Early June.
On the eve of Su Mingzhe's departure to Langya to take office.
Sima Pi made a benevolent decree to marry the ninth sister of the Zhu family in Shangyu, Wang Lan of Nishan Academy, to Su Mingzhe as his wife.
This is in response to the "Three Wives of the Princes" in "The Rites of Zhou".
…
"The Rites of Zhou" stipulates that ordinary people can only marry one wife. After the age of forty, if they have no children, they can take concubines.
Scholar-bureaucrats (officials) could marry one wife and two concubines.
The princes could marry three wives (one upright and two equal).
Now, Su Mingzhe has been canonized as Marquis of Kaiyang and meets the conditions for marrying a second wife.
…
Kaiyanghou Mansion.
On the night when Su Mingzhe received the imperial edict, he was guessing what Zhu Yingtai's expression would be when he heard the news, so he listened to the guard's report:
"General, a person is coming to see you!"
"oh?"
Su Mingzhe opened his consciousness and saw thousands of crimson clouds outside the door. He immediately understood who was coming:
"Invite him to sit down in the main hall!"
…
The lights in the main hall flickered.
An old Taoist floated over, and saw that his beard and hair were all white, but his face was ruddy. As he walked, he sang:
"Tai Chi is divided into two rituals, yin and yang are originally one. Hehe Xiangong sits in charge of marriage."
When Su Mingzhe heard the other party announcing his home address, he couldn't pretend not to understand. He could only bow his hands and say:
"It turns out it's Yue Lao who's visiting me. I'm sorry for missing you from afar. Please forgive me!"
After Yue Lao saw Su Mingzhe, he bowed his head and returned the gift honestly:
"The little fairy Chai Daohuang pays homage to the King of Heaven Buddha!"
"Do you know this poor monk, fellow Taoist?"
Su Mingzhe looked at Yue Lao in front of him and couldn't help but start to smack his teeth.
I traveled through the Little Sumeru Realm twice, but the woman escaped from marriage both times.
If he said that Yue Lao was not involved, he would never believe it.
Now, this Yue Lao directly called out his identity, which also confirmed this.
Seeing Su Mingzhe's cold eyes, Yue Lao immediately guessed what the man was thinking and quickly explained:
"The Heavenly King Buddha was joking, how could the little immortal have the right to know the Heavenly King Buddha? It was Lingji Bodhisattva who transmitted the message, and the Heavenly King Buddha was coming to this world to choose a goddess. In addition, the little fairy's 'Lovesickness Red Thread' magical power was broken, so he guessed that the Heavenly King Buddha
identity."
"Sit down!"
Su Mingzhe only remembered his identity and the purpose of coming to this little Sumeru world after receiving a vague reminder from the other party. He finally swallowed his anger and did not settle the score with Yue Laoqiu.
Wait until the maid serves tea and leaves.
Yue Lao didn't dare to beat around the bush and immediately expressed his intention:
"I wonder if the King of Heaven, Buddha, has chosen the woman for this day?"
"alright."
When Su Mingzhe saw the other party asking questions, he knew that the other party was most likely the master of this realm, so he did not hide it and pointed it out directly:
"That's Xie Daoyun, Gu Xinlian, Zhu Yingtai, and Wang Lan."
When Yue Lao heard that Su Mingzhe ordered ‘heroine’, he quickly said:
"Buddha, Heavenly King, Zhu Yingtai is the core of this world and cannot leave with you. Please choose someone else!"
"The core of this world?"
Su Mingzhe asked in surprise:
"Yue Lao, don't lie to me. She's just an ordinary girl. She doesn't have any cultivation power. How can she be the core of a world?"
"The Heavenly King Buddha doesn't know that the core of this world is a wisp of harmonious energy born from chaos."
Yue Lao explained with a smile:
"This wisp of harmonious energy has been refined by me for ten yuan. It has lost its spirituality long ago. Now it can be reincarnated as a human being. It is also considered a marriage destiny. It has a lifelong love relationship with the King of Heaven. However, from the next life, she will
You will fall into the realm of animals forever!"
"Just a lifelong love?"
When Su Mingzhe heard Yue Lao's explanation, the anger in his eyes could no longer be suppressed:
"I will always fall into the realm of beasts..."
"Heavenly King Buddha, this has nothing to do with the little fairy, it is her destiny!"
Yue Lao was afraid that he would be implicated, so he quickly explained the reason clearly:
"This world is one of the seven realms of suffering, the 'realm of love separation'. If the King of Heaven wants to save her from the sea of suffering, he can only obtain the Mahayana Buddhist scriptures..."
