Chapter 153 Interpretation of Gu Tingye III
But what does Mannia mean to Gu Tingye at this time?
It means that in this endless dark night, there is only a little light! This is the truth.
Mannia is a very scheming person.
In the play, this relationship is eliminated.
In fact, in the original work, the reason why Mannia acted like this was because of a senior of the heroine Minglan.
A famous chicken named "Mrs. Liuli".
Based on the heroine Minglan who also traveled through time, he speculated that they should be the same senior.
Because Fang was known to be talented and quick-witted, she went from being a famous chicken to becoming a first-class wife. Her experiences were legendary and the story was full of twists and turns. The affairs of her husband Gao Tan were included in the "Record of Famous Officials".
The reason why Mannia has been following Gu Tingye wholeheartedly is to learn from this "Mrs. Liuli".
Because Mrs. Liuli's status was even worse than hers, Mannia naturally thought that she could also be like Mrs. Liuli.
However……
Gu Tingye is not Gao Tan, and Mannia is not the time-traveling senior Lady Liuli.
So Mannia is doomed.
In the play, of course, there can be no time-travel elements.
So Minglan became young and wise.
And Mannia naturally did not have the actual experience of her predecessors to learn from, but she just wanted to become Mrs. Guhou.
This is also the reason why she cares about Gu Tingye.
After all, no one in the capital knows what the eldest son of the Gu family is like.
It has to be said that Mannia made a good calculation.
pity……
She is too naive after all.
Zhu Manniang didn't know anything about how much money Gu Tingye had, his net worth, wealth, etc. She only knew that Gu Tingye was lonely.
In fact, if she could continue, if nothing else, it would be normal for her to have enough food and clothing at least.
pity……
She is too greedy.
Once this person has delusional thoughts, he is doomed.
In the play, after Zhu Manniang followed Gu Tingye and left Ningyuan Houfu, Zhu Manniang was filled with despair about the future because Gu Tingye brought the wet nurse from her hometown.
What she wants to be is the wife of a marquis, not the daughter-in-law of an ordinary family.
And the key is, Gu Tingye never thought of marrying her!
How can Zhu Maniang endure this?
After learning that Gu Tingye only had some money, she thought about leaving.
When the wet nurse was not paying attention, she secretly asked her "deceased" brother to sell the stolen gold, silver and jewelry, and then prepared to run away.
Unfortunately, all of this was a trick used by Gu Tingye under the repeated instructions of the wet nurse!
Needless to say, the result was that Zhu Manniang was grounded, and Gu Tingye even planned to leave his mother to have a son.
Zhu Manniang became anxious, and while Gu Tingye was not at home, she hugged Gu Tingye's eldest son, Brother Chang, and ran away.
He doesn't even care about his biological daughter.
At this point, in order to find the eldest son of the concubine, Brother Chang, Gu Tingye took his daughter Sister Rong and wandered around the world.
Getting more and more depressed.
Later he became the eldest brother of the Cao Gang and gained some fame in the world.
But the problem is, this is ancient times.
This is not a martial arts drama, this is an ancient drama.
In ancient times, scholars, farmers, industry and commerce were still ranked, but these people in the world...
It's really not liked by others.
Gu Tingye's reputation became even worse.
Later, Gu Tingye accidentally rescued Minglan who was going to her hometown, and then under Minglan's guidance, he chose to join the army for Sister Rong, and later became a minister of Conglong.
It can be considered that the expectations of Mr. Gu were not in vain.
Later, he used a trick to marry Minglan. After marrying Gu Tingye, Minglan reorganized the mansion, punished Manniang, fought against her aunt, and fought against her stepmother. In the end, the couple was happy.
At the end of the novel, the couple resigned and retired to live in seclusion, focusing on the mountains and rivers and living a happy life.
It can be said that the structure of the entire story begins with the doting on the concubine and the destruction of the wife, and ends with the harmony between the husband and wife.
I have to say that this story may not be as magnificent as "A Dream of Red Mansions" in terms of background, but the core of the story is equally wonderful.
In the play, Gu Tingye is divided into three stages.
The first one is the naughty boy.
The second one is for Sister Rong.
The third one is for Minglan.
Many book fans have accused the male protagonist of being a big pig's hooves.
Many people even said in their dreams that if they were Minglan, they would definitely marry the young father-in-law.
Peng Hui sneered at this statement.
Any discussion cannot break away from the limitations of the times!
For example, in art, there are ancient, modern and post-modern.
Can modern things be understood in ancient times?
Nonsense!
If you appeared on the streets of ancient times wearing a set of casual clothes today, you would be beaten to death!
It's okay for men, there will be people laughing and scolding.
If women dressed like this appeared in ancient times...
She will be regarded as a temptress, a madwoman sinking into the pond, or lighting a sky lantern!
In the same way, if you use modern people's thinking to understand the thoughts of ancient people, you may not be Tiehanhan.
First of all, it is absolutely impossible for Qi Heng to marry Minglan.
Why?
Qiheng also has three stages.
The first stage is the childhood sweetheart’s first love.
At this time, he only knew that he was a relative of the emperor and had a distinguished status. Not only did he not have any concern about the behavior of entangled other girls, but he also had no taboos.
Why?
Because he was only curious about Minglan from the beginning. He was curious about why everyone doted on him, let him, and liked him, but Minglan kept distance from him all the time?
Due to this mentality, and the fact that Minglan was good-looking (to be honest), he was naturally fascinated, and later developed into liking her, and then it became a self-righteous liking.
However……
He never loved Minglan.
To him, Minglan is just a pure beauty.
It's a memory, something I can't ask for.
The Buddha said that among the eight sufferings, the first is "not getting what you want"!
Naturally, we have reached the second stage.
Qi Heng gets married.
To be honest, Qi Heng at this stage is weakened in the drama.
In the play, it provides a bridge.
The Duke of Qi was imprisoned, and Qi Heng had no choice but to beg the Sixth Princess, and was eventually forced to sign the marriage contract.
Then, the fourth prince had breakfast and killed the sixth prince and his family, making Qi Heng a widower.
At this time, he could have married Minglan immediately.
However……
He went to find his mother.
Actually, to be honest, this is right.
But the problem is...
Today you, Qi Heng, can abandon Minglan for your parents, but tomorrow, will you abandon Minglan for the sake of your wealth and life?
It can be said that from beginning to end, Qi Heng loved Minglan, but he loved himself more!
In the play, there is also a third stage.
At that time, Qi Heng married another wife.
She is a person who is only briefly mentioned in the book, but has a lot of plot in the play.
Chapter completed!
