Chapter 174 174. How long do you intend to hold me and your disciple together? (1)
Wei Youqing was suddenly hugged around the waist that had never been touched by anyone before. She was stunned at first, then she immediately became shy.
She subconsciously and instinctively tried to break free.
But in a flash, he stopped doing something that would offend Ning Mu in public.
She just blushed, pursed her lips slightly, and her eyes became vague.
But when she noticed that Ning Mu hugged her without any concealment, he also put his newly accepted first disciple Pi Yalu around Xiang Bai's shoulders.
She was stunned.
Piyalu was also stunned.
I never expected that Brother Ning, whom I have always admired for his outstanding literary talent, kind heart, and great generosity, would be so rude to me in front of my new master!
And subconsciously, I saw that the Master did not resist.
She hesitated for a moment, then remained silent, allowing Ning Mu to hold her in his arms.
immediately.
Hearing what Ning Mu said, both women frowned.
Immediately.
Wei Youqing temporarily suppressed the shyness in her heart, and instead stared at the person opposite her with anger in his eyes, with a hint of resentment in his eyes, and then looked at Qi Yulou, who seemed to be at a loss.
"Master, I am grateful for your teachings!"
Wei Youqing almost gritted his teeth and spoke in a cold voice.
It sounds like he's talking about being taught.
But in reality, it made Qi Yulou suddenly panic.
She is my uncle.
Regardless of seniority or status, she is the one who teaches and guides.
instead of myself!
"Uncle-master, please don't misunderstand me. That's not what I meant!" Qi Yulou hurriedly tried to explain.
Wei Youqing snorted coldly and said calmly: "What do you mean?"
"What the disciple means is... is..."
Qi Yulou's eyes were in a panic and he didn't know how to explain for a moment.
When he noticed that Ning Mu was hugging not only his uncle on the left but also his sister on the right, he was immediately furious. He glared at Ning Mu, pointed at him and said loudly: "Uncle, this man is too rude. I hope you won't be fooled by him!"
"Since he has a history with Junior Sister, why would he want to provoke Junior Uncle?"
"Master Uncle is a great man, a disciple of Master, with a face like a god and a figure that can captivate a country. His admirers are as numerous as the grains of sand in the vast ocean. With Master Uncle's appearance, his ideal match should be a romantic and suave man who only loves Master Uncle!"
"But this person is a philanderer, runs a casino, and builds a brothel. He is a perpetrator of all kinds of evil. How can such a filthy person be worthy of holding my uncle in his arms?"
Qi Yulou was filled with indignation.
Especially when he talked about the chosen one of heaven, he deliberately emphasized his tone and put on a look that he thought was cool.
Then he glared at Ning Mu's hand that was stroking Wei Youqing's slender waist.
Bastard, he's still touching!
And these words made Wei Youqing's face turn completely dark.
There was a hint of shame and anger in his extremely unnatural expression.
"Nephew, Qi Yulou, you are meddling too much!"
Wei Youqing stared at Qi Yulou, his eyes filled with warnings as he spoke every word.
"Even your master, Li Xiuyuan, doesn't dare to shout at me like this. How dare you, a youngster, insult me like this?"
"Early tomorrow morning, you will go down the mountain and lead all the disciples back to the academy!"
"If you behave disrespectfully again, you will be forced to leave this academy!"
Wei Youqing flicked his sleeves and turned around.
She was a student of a master and the instructor of the chief priest. Not to mention Qi Yulou, she was qualified to expel even ordinary officials in the academy.
scare!
Hearing this.
Qi Yulou was suddenly shocked and took several steps back in disbelief.
He didn't expect that even if he and his junior uncle didn't have a deep friendship, they had been together for a long time and had a close relationship.
But now.
Just because I said a few more words that I shouldn't have said, she wanted to expel me from the academy?
Qi Yulou didn't dare to say anything more.
But the look in his eyes when he looked at Ning Mu was full of resentment.
"Yes...disciple will take his leave!"
Qi Yulou bowed respectfully to Wei Youqing, his face extremely pale.
Ning Mu shrugged, happy to see it happen.
Then, without even looking at Qi Yulou, who looked like a lost dog, he hugged Wei Youqing and Pi Yalu and walked towards Ningyang Village.
along the way.
All three of them were silent.
It’s not that I don’t want to talk, but I don’t know what to say.
But after a long time.
Seems like he finally reacted.
Wei Youqing glanced sideways at the other side of Ning Mu, who was holding Pi Yalu by his shoulders. Then, with a slightly red face, he looked at Ning Mu, his eyes wandering for a few times, and pursed his lips, saying, "Mr. Ning, how long do you plan to hold my master and I together?"
The color of the Piya deer suddenly turned deep red.
Simultaneously.
For no reason, a trace of sadness flashed through my heart.
If Brother Ning and Master are in love, then since I have already become their disciple, shouldn’t I keep a certain distance from Brother Ning?
Otherwise, how would Master deal with himself?
How should I deal with myself?
Thinking of this, Piyalu couldn't help but move slightly to the side, turned sideways and lifted Ning Mu's hand off her shoulder.
Although I am a little reluctant.
But she still lowered her head slightly, lowered her eyes, and said softly: "Brother Ning, Pi just doesn't want you to lose face in front of Brother Qi. Now he has not caught up, Brother Ning... please respect yourself!"
After saying that, she took another half step back and glanced at Wei Youqing.
By saying this, she was not only distancing herself from Ning Mu, but was also indirectly telling her master that she could withdraw from this three-way competition.
Ning Mu laughed and naturally let go of the two people.
He was not at all embarrassed by the words of Wei Youqing and Pi Yalu. Instead, he smiled very naturally and said, "Aqing, Yalu, it's not that I care about my reputation, but your beauty and talents make me admire you all the time!"
at this time.
The place where the three people were was on the side of a road on a cliff in a valley. Fortunately, Liu Qingmei used his power as a real person to open up the road.
You can enjoy the scenery alone on this cliff.
then.
He pretended to be in love but didn't dare to reveal his feelings. He walked to the front of the cliff with melancholy, stood with his hands behind his back, and looked at the scenery in the valley.
The fierce mountain wind howled, making his hair and clothes rustle.
It was like the melancholy in my heart was materialized by the wind.
Wei Youqing and Pi Yalu were so moved by the lonely figure in the biting wind that they didn't know what to say. They looked at each other hesitantly and then looked at his back.
Ning Mu, who had his back to the two women, rolled his eyes.
Then, a voice full of melancholy was carried into the ears of the two people by the wind.
"Aqing, you have expressed your feelings several times. How could I not know? But I am insignificant and have hundreds of disaster victims to take care of. For the time being, I dare not respond to your feelings."
"As for Yalu, I have had my eyes on her since I was in Yonghang. But unfortunately, you are the governor, and I am just a businessman. Even if I can help the disaster relief, it is still a move that harms others and benefits the victims. How dare a villain like me covet anything from you?"
"Therefore, my admiration for the two women has always been deeply hidden in my heart, and I can't forget it for a long time!" "Today, the two of you happened to appear in my village together. Ning thought, is this an opportunity and fate given to me by God?"
"If you don't take what heaven gives you, you will suffer the consequences. If you don't act when the time comes, you will suffer the consequences!"
"That's why I muster up the courage. If there is any infringement, you two can just take my life. Alas~"
A long sigh.
then.
Ning Mu closed his eyes and looked as if he was ready to be killed.
Against the wind, the hair fluttered up and covered her face.
"Hmm~"
Wei Youqing and Pi Yalu both had frozen expressions, and after a moment of confusion in their beautiful eyes, a soft glow of emotion could not help but appear in their eyes.
Without waiting for the two to speak.
At this time.
All I could hear was a melodious singing voice, brought by the wind, and that voice was mixed with melancholy, sadness and longing.
"There are two beauties, whom I never forget after seeing them.
I don’t see you in a day, thinking like crazy.
Feng Fei soars, seeking phoenix from all corners of the world.
Helpless ladies, not in the East Wall.
Talk about the Qin on behalf of the heart, and talk about it.
When will I see Xu Xi, I will comfort my hesitation.
Wish to match virtue, hand in hand.
Not being able to fly has led me to ruin." [From Sima Xiangru's "The Phoenix Seeks the Phoenix"]
This is……
Wei Youqing and Pi Yalu were both shocked.
One is a disciple of Confucius, and the other is a new disciple of the Jixia Academy. Their literary attainments are definitely among the best in Confucianism.
How could one not hear that the lyrics sung by Ning Mu were an excellent poem?
The two had never heard this poem before.
It stands to reason that given the popularity of this fu and its literary value, it would surely become one of the most popular fu once it is published.
Then there is only one possibility.
This was completely something Ning Mu created on the spur of the moment as he was inspired!
hiss……
It would be fine if he could speak fluently.
Such a masterpiece comes so naturally and effortlessly.
Even if it is the Master's ability, I'm afraid it's only this much!
The phoenix is used to describe people.
The phoenix is male and the huang is female.
One phoenix and two phoenixes, although a bit outrageous, it is not abrupt.
The whole poem is simple in words but profound in meaning, with smooth and bright syllables and warm, unrestrained, deep and lingering emotions. It combines the gracefulness and lingeringness of Sao style with the freshness and brightness of folk songs.
Finally, their expressions relaxed slightly, and the tenderness in their eyes grew brighter.
"Mr. Ning, I already understand your intentions. Things change, and I have no intention of blaming you."
Wei Youqing took the initiative to speak and walked to stand beside Ning Mu. The wind blew her hair up, blinding her eyes.
The voice is melodious, like a mountain oriole, crisp and firm.
"Brother Ning, I don't blame you, but now, I am already your disciple, and I still have to follow the secular etiquette. If you and Brother Ning are in love, I am willing to call you Master, what do you think?"
Piyalu also came closer and stood on the other side of Ning Mu, looking at the boundless sky with regret lingering in her eyes.
It would be a great pleasure in life to be able to spend time with such a man of quick wit, brilliant literary talent, and extraordinary handsomeness, and to live in harmony with him.
But, after all, we are not destined to be together!
Wei Youqing, who was standing by, pursed her lips and said nothing when she heard this, but a hint of shyness flickered in her eyes.
This problem is a bit serious.
How would it look if word got out that the master and his disciple were fighting over a man?
But if I give it to Piyalu, what will happen to my own system?
After thinking it over, Wei Youqing could only remain silent.
Time will give the best answers to all questions!
She thought for a moment and changed the subject, "Mr. Ning, was the poem you just sang written by you?"
“Where there is interest, there is happiness in the heart.”
Ning Mu smiled slightly, neither denying nor admitting it.
In his heart, he silently apologized to Senior Sima for tampering with his poems, which was a serious sin.
Upon hearing this, Wei Youqing and Pi Yalu were both stunned.
Can one write such a popular masterpiece when he is inspired?
If this poem were to be presented at a festival to commemorate the Saint of Literature, I’m afraid the statue of the Saint of Literature would be turned upside down!
Wei Youqing couldn't help but think of something his master once said.
'Articles are naturally formed, and they are created by a skilled hand.'
It seems that Master Ning Mu Ning has already reached the level that the master talked about in terms of literary attainments!
"Aqing, Yalu, since you have decided to stay and help me, let me assign you a task first." Ning Mu looked at the two women with a smile.
"what?"
"Brother Ning, please give me your instructions."
Wei Youqing and Pi Yalu spoke one after another.
Ning Mu said, "I want to build an academy in the Ningyang Mountains. From the old to the young, everyone can study in the academy without paying any money. I will teach the words of the saints and martial arts. As long as it is beneficial to life, it can be taught."
"I've already thought of a name for this academy!"
"The poem I just wrote is titled Phoenix Seeking Phoenix, which means that I, a humble and lonely phoenix, am pursuing two divine phoenix fairies. The name of this academy should be Phoenix Academy. What do you think?"
Ning Mu looked at the two of them.
Piyalu's eyes sparkled. She used to be a lecturer in Bailu Academy. It was her old job.
But Wei Youqing frowned.
Then, he looked at Ning Mu with a strange expression and said, "It's fine to open an academy, but isn't the range of students too large? Are the things taught too broad? If too many people are enlightened, it may not be a good thing for you."
Ning Mu was stunned, but soon understood Wei Youqing's thoughts.
Wei Youqing lived in the Jixia Academy for many years, and must have had close connections with those royal nobles and knew some secrets.
But he shrugged and smiled calmly, saying: "It's just a college, how many people can it enlighten?"
Wei Youqing blinked his eyes when he heard this. This was indeed the truth.
"Okay then. I will definitely live up to your mission." Wei Youqing smiled and clasped his fists.
The three of them chatted and laughed, and set off back to the mountain again.
After returning to the mountain, Wei Youqing took Pi Yalu with him to settle down, and Qi Yulou actually followed them. Although he did not dare to approach from a distance, he never left.
Ning Mu didn't say anything, and Wei Youqing pretended not to see it.
Ning Mu had just returned to the main hall.
Then I saw a pretty figure, with a slightly flustered look, approaching.
"Master Xiao Ning... I wonder if you have time right now. I have something important to discuss with you!"
Zhu Yaluan, dressed in tight clothes, suddenly rushed into the hall. Then his knees went weak and he knelt in front of Ning Mu with his hands clasped together.
There was panic on Jiaobai's face, and there was still a hint of pleading in his eyes.
"I beg Village Master Xiao Ning to seek justice for me!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhu Yaluan loosened his hands, then prostrated himself on the ground, pleading timidly and affectionately.
