While writing a diary at Zongwu, Wang Yuyan falls in love with someone else.

However, Huang Yaoshi was much older than Mei Chaofeng, and the latter was his disciple. According to the public order and good customs of the time, it was absolutely outrageous for a master to fall in love with his disciple.

Although Huang Yaoshi was a person who disdained feudal ethics and disregarded the rules of the martial arts world, he always cared a great deal about the fundamental principles of human relations, so in the end he chose to suppress his own thoughts.

Although he didn't say it aloud, his feelings were subtly revealed in a poem he practiced copying daily.

That's Ouyang Xiu's "Looking South of the Yangtze River"!

[The poem contains the line: "The coins are tossed in the hall, and people walk around below; we were already mindful when we met then. How much more so now."]

This line tells the story of the great poet's illicit love affair with his niece!

Huang Yaoshi's fondness for this poem likely stemmed from a shared sense of empathy with Ouyang Xiu.

Snapped!

The copy of the diary in Huang Rong's hand fell to the ground, her eyes glazed over, and her pretty face turned deathly pale.

It was as white as her trembling, delicate hands.

"The money is tossed in the hall, and people walk around below; we were already mindful when we met then. How much more so now. Gazing south of the Yangtze River...gazing south of the Yangtze River..."

Huang Rong murmured and chewed several times, suddenly feeling an indescribable bitterness.

Because of this poem, she actually witnessed Huang Yaoshi copying it!

So what Jiang Sishui said, isn't it... isn't it...?

Suddenly, Huang Rong thought of Feng Heng, who was a well-bred young lady from a prominent family, well-versed in literature and poetry since childhood, and exceptionally talented in writing. Did she know about this matter?

If she knew the truth, then why didn't she complain at all over the years? Was she truly magnanimous and indifferent, or was she silently swallowing the bitter pill?

If she didn't know, wouldn't she have been kept in the dark for so many years, and wouldn't she have felt just as wronged?

Thinking of this, Huang Rong couldn't help but clench her fists.

By chance, Huang Yaoshi's handwritten copy of "Looking South of the Yangtze River" was seen by his eldest disciple, Qu Lingfeng.

Qu Lingfeng was always quick-witted, and she understood her master's thoughts in an instant.

After pondering for a long time, he subtly probed Mei Chaofeng, implicitly conveying Huang Yaoshi's thoughts to her.

Mei Chaofeng was still young and naive at the time. Although she had a good impression of her revered master, she did not have any deeper thoughts about him.

Therefore, faced with Qu Lingfeng's hints, she ultimately chose to feign ignorance.

A master-disciple relationship thus fell into an awkward situation of "the king is willing, but the goddess is not."

Qu Lingfeng was overjoyed after realizing that Mei Chaofeng had no romantic feelings for her master.

[It turns out that his reason for testing us wasn't just for his master, but also for himself.]

In their daily interactions, he also fell in love with this junior female student.

Unfortunately, Qu Lingfeng was too happy too soon.

His true adversary was never his master Huang Yaoshi, who was bound by strict moral principles, but rather his junior brother Chen Xuanfeng.

Chen Xuanfeng was Mei Chaofeng's destined lover!

"We've matched up again..." Huang Rong sighed softly.

Her senior sister Mei really did follow Chen Xuanfeng, and they even eloped.

When Huang Rong first heard this story, she wondered why the two of them didn't ask Huang Yaoshi to officiate their wedding back then, but instead chose to escape from Peach Blossom Island. Now she understands.

But she also felt a sense of powerlessness.

In fact, many women admire gentlemen like Huang Yaoshi and Qu Lingfeng, who acted with propriety while remaining true to their feelings. Moreover, their exceptional talent was a significant advantage.

But these things, unfortunately, have very little appeal to young girls.

Chen Xuanfeng is completely different from them; he is a very proactive person.

After realizing he was attracted to his junior sister Mei Chaofeng, he immediately began a passionate pursuit.

Every day he would tease Mei Chaofeng with flirtatious words and chase after the girl with passionate eyes, acting like a seasoned lover.

[Where had a young girl experiencing her first stirrings of love ever been before such a fierce offensive?]

[And so he was quickly moved by Chen Xuanfeng]

After realizing that the other party also had feelings for him, Chen Xuanfeng became bolder and even forcibly hugged Mei Chaofeng under the pretense of giving her peaches.

In my past life, Chen Xuanfeng's methods were not particularly sophisticated, but in an era that emphasized the separation of men and women, such a direct pursuit was quite effective.

Most importantly, Mei Chaofeng came from a poor background and lacked a sense of security, so she was not very resistant to Chen Xuanfeng's sweet talk.

So after a period of ardent pursuit, the persistent Chen Xuanfeng finally won over Mei Chaofeng's heart.

[Behind their master's back, the two secretly made a lifelong vow.]

065 Is Feng Heng a substitute for Guan Guan, who resembles Qing?

However, the truth will eventually come out.

The couple's passionate love affair was quickly discovered by Qu Lingfeng, who was both angry and jealous, and determined to stop it.

During their argument, Qu Lingfeng inadvertently revealed that Huang Yaoshi had a crush on Mei Chaofeng.

This act caused the proud and arrogant Huang Yaoshi to lose face, and in anger, he abandoned his disciple and left Peach Blossom Island alone.

[Thus, the brave but reckless Chen Xuanfeng began to live in fear and trembling, and at the same time, he began to have the idea of ​​escaping Peach Blossom Island.]

This foreshadowed the tragedy that would follow.

"tragedy?"

Upon seeing these two sensitive words, Huang Rong's attention immediately focused.

She had a premonition that this "tragedy" must be related to her mother.

After leaving Peach Blossom Island, Huang Yaoshi soon had the idea of ​​getting married.

He felt that this would silence the gossip and prevent further discussion about his incestuous relationship with his disciple, Mei Chao-feng.

When a charismatic and accomplished scholar like Huang Yaoshi wanted to get married, it naturally wasn't difficult at all.

Not long after, he successfully proposed to Feng Heng, a talented woman from Qingyuan Prefecture.

Feng Heng is well-educated, reasonable, understanding, and capable both in public and domestic settings; she is a model wife for any man.

As for why Huang Yaoshi took a liking to Feng Heng, the book does not describe it in detail.

However, Mei Chaofeng once said: "My master's wife is very young, the same age as me, we are both born in the Year of the Monkey. My master's wife is very beautiful, with fair and tender skin, like milk, no wonder my master loves her so much."

This passage reveals that Feng Heng was a woman of similar age to Mei Chaofeng.

[Given this behavior, it's hard to believe that Huang Yaoshi didn't harbor feelings for Feng Heng, and that he didn't seem to have any genuine affection for her.]

The death of Feng Heng provides even stronger evidence!

Having read this far, no further evidence is needed; the women are all basically convinced that Huang Yaoshi is in love with Mei Chaofeng.

Although Feng Heng is good, she is more like a substitute that Huang Yaoshi found.

Zhao Qiying couldn't help but recall the heartwarming scene of Huang Yaoshi driving his wife, and she was filled with emotion.

It's surprising that two people who seem so loving might actually be sleeping in the same bed but dreaming different dreams.

Thinking about it, I really feel sorry for Feng Heng.

I'm not afraid that Huang Yaoshi is fickle and loves two people at the same time, but I'm afraid that Huang Yaoshi is single-minded and thinks of Mei Chaofeng while looking at Feng Heng.

To discuss Feng Heng's death, we must mention a martial art—the Nine Yin Manual.

The Nine Yin Manual was created by the extraordinary Huang Chang over several decades. After its completion, it was hidden in a mysterious place, but was later accidentally leaked out.

Because the true scripture contains methods to break the martial arts techniques of various schools, it is known as the "general outline of all martial arts in the world," which aroused a struggle among heroes in the martial arts world, and stirred up a bloody storm.

"The general principles of all martial arts? What arrogance!"

The Nine Yin Manual does exist in reality, and some women who have heard of it are astonished, thinking that this is too much to ask!

As far as they knew, the Nine Yin Manual was merely a magical skill, not even a sacred text.

The title of "General Outline of Martial Arts" is probably not even worthy of Tian Gong's praise!

To prevent endless feuds in the martial arts world, Wang Chongyang, the leader of the Quanzhen Sect, proposed the "Mount Hua Sword Tournament," with the winner becoming the "Number One Martial Arts Master in the World" and possessing the "Nine Yin Manual."

[After the challenge was issued, the martial arts world fell silent, not daring to invite humiliation. In the end, only Huang Yaoshi, Ouyang Feng, Duan Zhixing, and Hong Qigong went up Mount Hua.]

After seven days and seven nights of sword fighting, Wang Chongyang emerged victorious and obtained the Nine Yin Manual.

Shanzhou, Mount Hua.

Yue Lingshan let out a soft "Eek" and laughed, "Mother, I never thought our Mount Hua would have a share."

Ning Zhongze: "..."

What's there to be happy about when your own mountain gate is being used as a battleground for others to fight and bully?

If there had been a Huashan Sect back then, the sect leader would probably have been furious.

Although the four were defeated, Huang Yaoshi and Ouyang Feng were not discouraged.

Before his death, Wang Chongyang discovered that Ouyang Feng was lurking in Zhongnan Mountain, intending to steal the true scriptures, so he pretended to die.

As expected, Ouyang Feng attacked, but Wang Chongyang seized the opportunity to severely injure him, and it took him more than ten years to recover from his injuries.
