Chapter 144: The Past
Zhu Mian, the "thief" who is "glorified" in the legend of traitors, is an authentic Suzhou native, and he knows everything about every grass and tree in his hometown.
Therefore, as the governor of Suzhou, he played and looted in his own territory, which was simply pervasive, and it took less than two months for him to "clean up" those rich families and large landlord families who had no background or did not have a deep background.
And Nie Tingyin's family, as one of the families without any background, was also tossed miserably by Zhu Mian and his lackeys.
In the process of raiding the house, Nie Tingyin's mother, who is a martial arts master, carried out a "mantis arm as a car" like resistance, and after her strength was exhausted, she was killed by the Suzhou soldiers with random arrows.
It was precisely because of Nie Tingyin's mother that she had a "suicide charge", so Zhu Mian and them took the opportunity to give Nie Tingyin and their family a major crime of rebellion, so the Nie family, the men were all executed, and none of them were left, and the female dependents were all reduced to slaves and entered the Teaching Division.
It stands to reason that the daughters of the Nie family who have entered the Teaching Workshop Division and have been "trained by tricks" have only one fate in the future, that is, to become officials and live by pleasing men, but Nie Tingyin's fate is very "different".
After being trained for a year, only fifteen-year-old Nie Tingyin, began her official career, because she was engaged in the profession, talented, so, she only did more than a year of official work, that is, when she was sixteen years old, it was bought by the Suzhou Daqinglou Mingyue Building with an official background, since then, she has broken away from the ranks of the official, and has become a private Qinglou girl with an official background.
Or because of her talent, Nie Tingyin, who went to Mingyue Tower to live a life, soon showed her talent in music, especially her cultivation in the three musical instruments of Dong Xiao, pipa and guqin, so to speak, she was just seventeen years old at the time, and her performance skills in those three musical instruments were almost unrivaled in the entire Suzhou.
So, relying on his musical talent, coupled with the appearance of the sinking fish and the wild goose, as well as the peerless temperament, Nie Tingyin, who was in his early seventeens, had already become the head of Mingyue Tower.
In the period when Nie Tingyin was an Oiran, in the world, there was a man called Yi Mingxuan, the word Yating, the master of the chess pavilion, this "chess pavilion master", was the most powerful Go player in the territory of the Song Dynasty at that time, in the field of Go, he has been undefeated for 30 years, he is the kind of leading generation of gods, respected as "chess fairy" by the people of the time.
This "chess fairy" Yi Mingxuan, in addition to the "outrageous" in chess, also has another superb ability, that is, he can be an official.
At that time, he had already mixed into the left scattered cavalry of the third grade, you know, in the Song Dynasty, the prime minister above 10,000 people under that person was also the official position of the second grade, this Yi Mingxuan can mix with the position of the third rank that is slightly inferior to the prime minister, it can be seen that this person's official skills are also extraordinary.
Because the high-ranking official Yi Mingxuan was too good at playing chess, Song Huizong, who had not succeeded to the throne as the emperor at that time, but was very good, asked Yi Mingxuan to be his personal Go teacher and teach him to play chess.
After Huizong succeeded to the throne, Yi Mingxuan, who was the emperor's chess teacher, immediately "turned a black chicken into a phoenix" and became a figure of attention in the world, but at this time, he was already in his sixties and almost seventy years old, and he had reached the age where he had to retire.
After a few more years of the glorious days of the "red people" around the emperor, Yi Mingxuan, who was already old enough to be deaf and dizzy, and his legs and feet began to be inflexible, was determined to be brave, he understood that if he wanted to retreat, he had to retreat when he was "popular", in that case, the emperor would still remember himself, and he would still have a certain "right to speak" in the future, otherwise......
So, when Yi Mingxuan, the "master of the chess pavilion", was seventy-two years old, he presented his Zhishi chapter to Song Huizong, although he was reluctant, but Song Huizong, who received the medal, also understood that his Go teacher was really old, and he could not keep him by his side, and if he stayed, he might die of old age in the capital.
So, Emperor Huizong, who felt that his teacher died in a foreign place violated filial piety, agreed to Yi Mingxuan's request, and after being rewarded with a huge amount of property and land by his emperor's students, Yi Mingxuan, who was old, left the capital with his family and returned to his hometown Suzhou to retire.
"Chess Pavilion Master" Yi Mingxuan returned to Suzhou this year, Nie Tingyin is already twenty years old, she has been an Oiran in Mingyue Tower for several years, her name of Oiran has spread throughout Jiangsu and Zhejiang, in this place, all the men who have been mixed with Fengyue Field, there is no one who does not know the name Nie Tingyin.
Although the days of being an Oiran are very beautiful, and they are pampered and loved by all kinds of powerful men every day, and they seem to be loved by thousands of people, but Nie Tingyin, who has infinite scenery on the surface, has always been ravaged by demons in the depths of his heart.
The demon that ravaged her was her hatred of the clan. She has never forgotten how she went from a young lady from a big family to a young lady who was abused by thousands of people.
After she became "popular", she swore in front of her father's grave that she promised that as long as there was a chance, she would find a chance to avenge the dead family until death.
When Nie Tingyin learned from one of her benefactors that Yi Mingxuan, a big man in the capital and the "red man" in front of the emperor, retired and returned to her hometown, she suddenly realized that her chance to take revenge had come.
And Nie Tingyin's plan at that time was to use his beauty to seduce Na Yi Mingxuan and let him marry him as his concubine, and then he used Yi Mingxuan's huge influence to avenge his family's extermination.
The ancients said: A man's pursuit of beauty will not change with his age, even if a man reaches the moment when he is about to enter the coffin, his thoughts will not change......
Obviously, the old man Yi Ming Xuan Yi is this kind of "unchanging" man, although the old man Yi at this time is already seventy-two years old, and he is deaf and dazzled and almost unable to walk, but his heart of hunting is no different from his youth when he was in his teens and twenties and hormones exploded......
So, in the case of "Lang is affectionate, and the concubine is intentional", within half a year, the twenty-one-year-old Oiran Nie listened to the sound and hooked up with the seventy-three-year-old Yi Mingxuan.
In his last years, the old man Yi, who was full of strength, married Nie Tingyin, who had "impure motives", into the family......
