In the original book, there was no love between the Nihuang County Lord and Lin Shu. A certain feudal king had a prominent position in the country, held a heavy army, and won the trust of the royal family. Once, when he took his daughter to Beijing, the young lord of Nihuang was left in the palace to play with the children of many princes and nobles. Among them, one is the only son of the general of the court, two years older than the lord of Nihuang, and they often play together. The Empress Dowager saw that they were in love, so she made a marriage contract for them.
Lin Shu recalled this past, and he admitted frankly that this marriage contract had nothing to do with feelings. At that time, Nihuang and Lin Shu were still very young and knew nothing about love, although they were engaged, they had not yet opened the door to emotion.
However, the happy life did not last long. A year later, the Lin family was destroyed on suspicion of rebellion, and Yunnan Mufu, as the in-law of the Lin family, was also suspicious of the royal family. The emperor began to have suspicions about the Mu Mansion, which made them militarily limited. Subsequently, the neighboring countries started a war, and the father of the Nihuang County Lord died while defending against foreign enemies. At that time, reinforcements had not yet arrived, and the situation was critical. The seventeen-year-old lord of Nihuang County wore linen and filial piety, resolutely led the army into battle, and finally succeeded in defending the territory.
After the peace in the south, the emperor decided to recruit a son-in-law for her and leave her in the capital in order to weaken the power of the Nihuang county lord and her relationship with the Lin family. At this time, Mei Changsu entered Beijing as the talented son at the top of the Langya list and was courteous to the lord of Nihuang. However, the Nihuang County Lord was not interested in Mei Changsu, but hoped to find out the news of another person through him. This person is very important to her, it is her heart.
Throughout the life of the Nihuang County Lord, she has always adhered to her beliefs and responsibilities, and has never been shaken by emotions. Her past with Lin Shu is just an ignorant agreement when she was young, and it has nothing to do with love. And the person in her heart is her real home and dependence. In the hinterland of Yunnan, the lord of Nihuang County is facing an unprecedented crisis. The enemy skillfully uses the water attack, and the county lord is in a difficult situation and has nothing to do. At this time, a young man volunteered, claiming to be good at water warfare, and asked to join the army. The county lord had a discerning eye, saw the extraordinaryness of this person, and decided to hire. This young man, as expected, was brilliant and turned the tide and successfully resolved the crisis in Yunnan.
For the next six months, he stayed in Yunnan to help the county lord train the navy. He has a bold personality, a noble character, and at the same time a great sense of humor. And the Nihuang County Lord, her open-mindedness and heroic posture deeply attracted everyone. The two are of similar age, and they get along day and night, and their feelings gradually develop.
However, the young man did not confess to the county lord and quietly left. The Nihuang County Lord, who left behind an infatuation, even if he began to look for his husband, was looking forward to his return in his heart. Because he had disappeared in the Jiangzuo area, the county lord looked at Mei Changsu, the leader of the Jiangzuo League, differently.
Who is the young man's real identity? He is Nie Duo, the younger brother of Lin Shu's lieutenant general Nie Feng. He came to Yunnan to help in the war, but he was actually ordered by Lin Shu. However, he had a deep affection for Lin Shu's fiancée, Lord Nihuang.
In the TV series, the lord of Nihuang has been waiting for her "Xiaoshu brother", but in the original book, she falls in love with Lin Shu's deputy general Nie Duo. For Lin Shu, she only has the love of brother and sister, not the slightest love between men and women.
When Lin Shu returned, his little girl's heart already belonged. Despite this, she still recognized him. Women's feelings are often unreasonable. Even if there are no traces, we can know. Perhaps it is precisely because of the absence of nothing that we are more clear. Brother Lin Shu, I'm sorry, I won't leave you anymore, and I'll never leave you again.
Brother Lin Shu will always be her brother Lin Shu, only by Lin Shu's side, Nihuang is no longer the main general of the southern realm, but has returned to the little girl more than ten years ago. She can be carefree, she can cry aggrieved, because there is someone who always protects her like the warm winter sun. However, this trust has nothing to do with love.
So, is it right that Nihuang didn't wait for her brother Lin Shu? Yes, that's right. Because they have never had a relationship between men and women, how can they live up to it? Nie Duo revealed his true identity to Nihuang, revealing that he was actually Lin Shu's lieutenant. However, Nihuang was not surprised or uncomfortable by this. In her heart, Lin Shu was always her brother, and Nie Duo was the one she loved.
First, the separation between life and death draws a line between them. If Lin Shu was still alive and there was a marriage contract between Nihuang and him, she might not be tempted by others. She grew up with him and shared the good times of childhood sweethearts, but with the passing of Lin Shu, their relationship stopped at brother and sister love. Lin Shu has become a precious memory of Nihuang's youth, a brother who always takes care of and accompanies her. However, the past is gone, and the gap between life and death cannot be bridged. Nihuang never thought of waiting for her brother Lin Shu for the rest of her life, and there was nothing wrong with this thought, because life always had to go on.
Secondly, Nihuang has endured too much suffering, and she needs someone she can rely on. During the ten years she was at the helm of the South, she faced countless hardships and hardships alone, and became the support of everyone. If Lin Shu was still there, she could rely on him, but he was no longer there. When Nie Duo appeared in her life, his excellence, tenacity, and broad heart held up a sky for her. Her affection for him was inevitable because she needed such a person.
However, when Lin Shu suddenly appeared, Nie Duo was never able to respond to Ni Huang's feelings, even though his feelings for her were equally deep. He chose to flee and hide, but Wei Zheng discovered his secret. Nie Duo said that he was in love with Nihuang and was willing to do anything for her, even if it was betraying his status as a young marshal. Wei Zheng hit him for this, and Feiliu overheard these words.
In the end, Lin Shu chose to be fulfilled. Does he love Nihuang? Yes, he loves his little girl, but he wants her to be happy even more. Therefore, he decided to fulfill the relationship between Nie Duo and Nihuang. They used to have a deep friendship, but Nihuang didn't know that he was alive, but he did know that his little girl, Nihuang, was there. It's just that, whether he loves it or not, he will never be with Nihuang again. Because he can't give Nihuang a future, since he can't give it, then he shouldn't think about it anymore. When he learns that Nihuang and Nie Duo are in love, he chooses to fulfill it.
Lin Shu was buried in Meiling, and a wisp of loyal soul finally returned. And Xiao Jingyan has always refused to agree to the marriage of Nie Duo and Nihuang. It wasn't until Gong Yu sent a letter that the young emperor summoned Nie Duo. Nie Duo said: "The world's wind is judged, let others comment. I only know that if I can't take care of Nihuang for the rest of my life, if I can't make her healthy and happy, I will be even more unable to forgive myself. Lin Shu wants Nihuang to be happy, and he doesn't want anyone he cares about to be unhappy.
Xiao Jingyan finally nodded silently in agreement. After Nihuang got married, she handed over the Mu Mansion in Yunnan to Mu Qing, and she accompanied her husband Nie Duo to the east to garrison Haiphong. Those who are alive live happily. Only those who have passed away can rest in peace. What's wrong with that? Never think that "blind affection" is a good thing.
Should Nihuang be widowed for the rest of his life because of a marriage contract when he was young? Nihuang in the TV series waited for her Lin Shu brother, but her Lin Shu brother was not with her, only agreed with her in the next life. But how should Nihuang spend this life? Lin Shu went to his battlefield, which was truly his. Could it be that Nihuang must always be alone for the rest of his life?
In the original book, when Lin Shu returned to Meiling, he had no concern for Nihuang. Because his little girl has someone to take care of, there will be a better future. Every time I read the original book of "Langya Bang", I will cry, no matter how many times I read it. Lin Shu is really distressing. However, I have to admit that Nihuang's decision not to wait was the right one. Because that's what Lin Shu was looking forward to in the end.
