Chapter 31 Helan Minzhi's Thoughts

Wu Shun certainly knew Li Zhi’s thoughts. She had the same idea as Helan Minzhi and did not want her daughter to have an affair with Li Zhi.

If a mother and daughter serve a man at the same time, how can they accept being a mother?

Wu Shun also knew very well about her sister's temperament. Wu Meiniang would not tolerate anyone competing for favor with her.

It is precisely because of her understanding that she often feels frightened.

Fortunately, with my old mother here, Mei Niang won’t do some things too much.

Wu Shun also knew that Wu Meiniang had the same idea as them when it comes to Helan Minyue’s affairs.

She also doesn't want Helan Minyue to be earned by Lee Ji.

As a mother, Wu Shun hopes to lose her fatherly love daughter very early, to have a man she can rely on to take care of her and give her a happy life.

Wu Shun also knew what Helan Minzhi was thinking.

As Helan Minyue's brother, Helan Minyue would never accept such a result. His mother and sister both served the emperor.

When Wu Shun saw Luo Ziling, he understood why Helan Minzhi treated Luo Ziling so politely.

My son wants to find a good husband for his sister!

Luo Ziling is indeed not bad. He can be recognized by Helan Minzhi and Helan Minyue. Wu Shun also believes that he is a talented and experienced man, otherwise he would not be able to impress the brother and sister.

But what Wu Shun was concerned about was not Luo Ziling's talent, but other things.

The ancient times are actually similar to those in later generations and modern times. As parents, they pay more attention to the actual conditions.

Identity and status are the most important.

If you have a bad background, then no matter how good your studies are, it is difficult to achieve great success.

If Luo Ziling was born into a grassroots or was just an ordinary noble, she would not accept it.

Most of the wealthy families in the Tang Dynasty were in Chang'an, and others were scattered in Guanlong nobles and other noble families, and there were no one with the surname Luo.

Although Jiangnan is no longer a place of barbarism, the people there do not have much high status.

After all, she is a "national lady"-level figure, and the person her daughter wants to marry must be of equal status.

Helan Minzhi seemed to know what Wu Shun wanted to say to Luo Ziling.

When Helan Minyue whispered that Wu Shun wanted to talk to Luo Ziling, he took the initiative to talk to Wu Shun.

"Mother, I'll talk to you first." He walked to Wu Shun, gave a big gift, and then ordered Helan Minyue: "Minyue, accompany Zi Ling to the mansion and walk around."

"Okay!" Helan Minyue agreed readily and said to Wu Shun: "Mom, you have a chat with your brother first, and I will accompany Ziling around."

Wu Shun sighed slightly, but still had no intention of reversing Helan Minzhi.

When he saw Helan Minyue happily accompany Luo Ziling, who bowed to her, walked in another direction, Wu Shun asked Helan Minzhi with a serious look: "Do you want to choose a good son-in-law for Minyue?"

Helan Minzhi did not answer positively: "Mother, after Luo Ziling and Shangguan Tingzhi drank together yesterday, they were taken to the mansion by Shangguan Tingzhi to see his sister Shangguan Qingzhi. When he saw it for the first time, he wanted Ziling to be his brother-in-law and become the son-in-law of the Shangguan family."

"What?" Wu Shun couldn't help but look surprised, with an unquestionable look: "Is there such a thing?"

"Mother, Minyue admires Ziling very much, and I think he is very good." Helan Minzhi said seriously: "Zi Ling is very talented and even Taoist Master Sun Simiao and Taoist Master Li Chunfeng and Taoist Master Li have highly praised him. In the past two days, Ziling and Taoist Master Sun have lived together, and Taoist Master Sun has attracted him as a friend of his age. I don't talk about anything else. Just the recognition of the few of them, and Shangguan Tingzhi wants him to be his brother-in-law, you can know how outstanding Ziling is. Taoist Master Sun and Taoist Master Li are both good at knowing people, especially Taoist Master Li, who has the ability to predict the future. I think they must have seen that Ziling will be successful in the future and will look at him differently."

Wu Shun was silent and didn't know what to say.

What Helan Minzhi said just now really shocked her.

Li Chunfeng and Sun Simiao both had high prestige in the court and were guests of honor for the emperor and the queen.

Some time ago, Li Chunfeng followed the imperial decree and went around to search for Li Zhi's mausoleum a hundred years later.

Being entrusted with such an important task shows Li Zhi and Wu Meiniang’s trust in him.

The "Tuibei Tu" written by his teacher Yuan Tiangang and him also revealed the national destiny of the Tang Dynasty and many subsequent history.

Because it was too shocking, this book had no chance to be made public.

Sun Simiao was even more like a living immortal. He not only had excellent Taoism, but also had superb medical skills. He went to the palace several times to treat Li Zhi.

If it weren't for Sun Simiao's treatment, Li Zhi's condition would definitely be even worse than it is now.

Luo Ziling was recognized by the two of them, and as long as any of them recommended to the court, his future would be very promising.

No wonder, even Shangguan Mansion wants to choose him as his husband.

Although there was a turmoil in his heart, Wu Shun still asked Helan Minzhi calmly: "Do you know his specific situation?"

"He went to Beijing to take the exam because he was injured on the road, missed the exam period, and was separated from his entourage. He was looking for it. Maybe he had something unspeakable and was unwilling to tell us more. I believe that after he found his entourage, he would tell us the situation." After Helan Minzhi told Wu Shun some things that Luo Ziling said and he had made up for himself, and then said: "Mother, I think he and Minyue are very compatible. If Minyue makes an engagement with him, it will be a good thing for everyone. Do you know that Minyue often dreamed of him during this period, and dreamed of him when the two of them had not met. Don't you think they are quite destined to be together?"

"Is this really the case?" Wu Shun was very surprised.

Helan Minzhi nodded seriously and said, "There is another thing I didn't want to tell you at first, but now I feel it's necessary to let you know. Priest Li Chunfeng and Taoist Li told me privately a few days ago that our family will suffer a great disaster in the near future, and only this person can help us escape the great disaster."

Helan Minzhi took out Luo Ziling's portrait from his arms and presented it to Wu Shun for his reading, and said again: "You can ask Master Li. But he also said that Tianji cannot reveal too much, I shouldn't have told you about this."

Wu Shun's face turned a little pale, and Helan Minzhi actually told her that Li Chunfeng said that their family would suffer a disaster.

Where did the disaster come from? She could think of it at random.

This matter is too serious. She must ask Li Chunfeng for verification and ask the reason, otherwise she will be unable to sleep or eat.

"Mother, what do you want to talk to Ziling?" Seeing Wu Shun's face change drastically, Helan Minzhi spoke more and more proactively, "Do you want to warn him to stay away from us?"

"No such intention!" Wu Shun certainly would not admit his thoughts, "I just want to know his situation and see if he is really a match for Minyue."
