Their eyes met, and the dim skylight cast a shadow on Qiu Cong's old face. There was no light in the room, and Gu Ling's face showed no warmth at all.

The atmosphere became tense for a moment, and Qiu Cong's hand moved slightly.

The next moment, Gu Ling's thin lips opened slightly, "I still have something else to do."

Qiu Cong narrowed his eyes slightly and said angrily, "You don't want to go?"

Before he finished speaking, Gu Ling had already come out of the room with the letter. He just avoided Qiu Cong's hand grabbing his shoulder and walked out, "Wait for me for a moment."

Qiu Cong watched Gu Ling disappear from sight and snorted coldly, "It only takes a moment. If it's too late, I'll go back and let Su Liang dump you."

At night, the small courtyard is quiet and quiet.

Qiu Cong was sitting in the courtyard, with his baggage, long knife and straw hat at hand, ready to leave at any time.

Just when Qiu Cong felt that the quarter hour was up and didn't want to wait any longer, he stood up and Gu Ling came back.

Qiu Cong didn't know what he was doing, and didn't want to ask. He just picked up the baggage on the table and let Gu Ling figure it out for himself.

Gu Ling didn't explain. He returned to the room, quickly took out a bag and closed the door.

When Qiu Cong saw this, he turned around and left. Gu Ling followed closely.

Neither of them had any intention of communicating with each other, but because of Su Liang, they temporarily reached a silent understanding.

It wasn't until he left Xiangyue City that Gu Ling asked, "How many days?"

Qiu Cong replied, "Seven or eight days."

Then the silence returned.

As for things like eating and drinking, without any communication, Gu Ling was responsible by default. During the first meal, Qiu Cong was still wondering whether Gu Ling wouldn't even be able to find food for him. If so, he would have to go his own way, but it turned out that he was overthinking it.

On an unnamed island.

In the evening, the heat faded away and the breeze brought refreshment. Su Liang took Cen Man's arm for a walk in the bamboo forest as usual.

Today, I walked in a direction that I had never been before, and suddenly found that it was a little brighter in front of me. Su Liang felt strange, because it was said that it was still far away from the seaside.

After walking a little further, Su Liang looked surprised, "Master, there is actually a lake here! I didn't know it before"

A sea of ​​green bamboo surrounds a lake like a mirror. The edge of the lake reflects the scattered green bamboos. The center is reflected by the magnificent sunset at dusk with a touch of gentle red. The two colors are clearly layered and extremely harmonious. It is as beautiful as a fairyland. .

Su Liang described the scenery in front of Cen Man, and a smile appeared on Cen Man's face, "From what you said, I seem to have seen it."

"Master, if Master Lao Qiu brings my husband here, I would like to carve out a place by this lake and build a new small courtyard where the two of us can live." Su Liang said happily.

Firstly, she and Gu Ling have always liked to have a separate space, enjoy their world, be comfortable and relaxed, and protect each other's secrets. To be precise, there were three of them, and she still had one in her belly. Gu Ling, in particular, would most likely not want to see Qiu Cong.

Secondly, when Qiu Cong comes back, unless Cen Man leaves immediately, the original small courtyard will not be enough.

Thirdly, in view of what happened before, although Nangong Qian has lost her memory now and seems to have a much softer temper, we cannot rule out the possibility that she will fall in love with Gu Ling again when she sees him again. It's inconvenient to live under the same roof, so it's best to keep a little distance.

Su Liang felt that as long as he raised the third point, Qiu Cong should be able to agree to Su Liang's request to live alone with Gu Ling for the sake of Nangong Qian.

Cen Man also knew what happened before and thought this was good. In this way, she can stay.

After walking around the lake, the more I saw Su Liang, the more I liked this place. Although she didn't want to live in seclusion here with Gu Ling, it was certainly better to live as happily and comfortably as possible since she couldn't leave this place.

Before going to bed that night, Su Liang drew a sketch of the bamboo house she envisioned under the lamp, planning to refine it tomorrow and hand it over to Gu Ling when he arrived. He will definitely be able to do what Su Liang imagined.

"Little God, maybe your father will be here soon. Wait until he comes to build a new house." Su Liang caressed her belly, looking forward to Gu Ling's arrival.

Yaocheng.

Situ Xie arranged for two groups yesterday. One group went to Qian Kingdom to inform Duanmu Yi about Gu Ling and Su Liang's deception; the other group rushed to Yan Kingdom to discuss an alliance.

After rescuing Situ Yao last night, Situ Xie stayed up all night, thinking that Gu Ling had not come to Yaocheng. People on Su Liang's side already knew that she was not in Liang country. Could it be that Gu Ling had rescued her?

If this is the case, not only will Situ Jing's eyes be saved, but the next situation will be very detrimental to Situ Xie and Liang Guo! As long as Su Liang and Gu Ling are around in the Qian Kingdom, under certain circumstances, their couple can defeat thousands of troops! And Duanmu Yi may not believe the message Situ Xie sent, and even if he does, he may not really choose to fall out with Su Liang and Gu Ling at this time.

Because Situ Xie knew very well what kind of people Su Liang and Gu Ling were. If Duanmu Yi sees their true nature clearly, the smartest thing to do is to make good use of them to achieve his goal.

Its daybreak.

Situ Xie changed his clothes and planned to enter the palace and tell Situ Han face to face what happened last night.

Not long after the carriage left the palace, it suddenly shook. Situ Xie's face darkened and he grabbed the wall of the carriage. He heard the neighing of horses and the shouts of guards coming from outside, "There are assassins! Protect the prince 1

Situ Xie's strength was much higher than that of the guards, but he did not go out immediately. Instead, he watched coldly through the gap in the swaying car curtains as the four masked assassins fought with the guards outside.

The assassin was very strong, and it didn't take long to finish off the guards and the coachman, and surrounded the carriage.

Situ Xie looked at the assassin's figure and confirmed that there was no Gu Ling or Lao Mu, who Qi Jun called "Senior Jin" last night. It made him suspect that this might be sent by the royal family of Qian Kingdom.

Just as the four assassins were approaching the carriage, the hidden guards appeared and blocked them again.

"Keep alive." Situ Xie ordered, still sitting in the carriage without taking action. His close secret guards are all masters who have been recruited with huge sums of money over the years. In terms of strength, they are not inferior to the four assassins.

The battle was stalemate, with both sides losing the battle.

When Situ Xie saw that the assassins had no help, he decided to take action himself. Unexpectedly, before he got out of the carriage, the four assassins heard the whistles not far away and ran away with a feint!

The secret guard followed Situ Xie's rules and did not pursue him, lest he fall into the trap of luring the tiger away from the mountain.

"Master, those guys all look like killers." One of the secret guards said.

Situ Xie also saw it. The killer's tactic is to spare no effort in taking people's lives, and the four are equally ruthless.

But the blame lies here. Since he is a killer, there is no obvious chance of defeat, and there are accomplices not far away. Those who came for Situ Xie have not seen him yet, so why did they withdraw?

"Master, maybe he is from Yanyun Tower." Another secret guard said.

Someone immediately retorted, "If someone hires Yan Yun Tower to kill the master, not to mention that according to Yan Yun Tower's original rules, he will not take such a job at all. Even if he does, the person who takes the action should be the owner Yan Shiba, not Those few just now.”

Yanyun Tower has rules and does not get involved in the royal family's fights, and generally does not accept the job of assassinating key members of the royal family.

Firstly, it is too dangerous, and secondly, it is easy for the entire Yanyun Tower to be targeted by the royal family.

If there is an employer who is so capable that Yan Yunlou is willing to kill Situ Xie, he either has a special relationship or can afford a sky-high salary.

No matter what the situation is, it is only reasonable for Yan Shiba to take action personally for a business of this nature.

Situ Xie knew this, and also knew that Su Liang and Gu Ling had huge financial resources in their hands. If he was really the killer of Yanyun Tower just now, and if his employer had something to do with Su Liang, and if he was hired with money, Situ Xie would have nothing to worry about.

But Situ Xie thought of another possibility. Yan Yun Tower took action not for money, but for Su Liang. Not long ago, he heard some inside stories about Yan Yun Tower's turmoil in the past two years, and he had to suspect that there was a mysterious person helping behind the scenes. Yan Shiba, otherwise she wouldn't have saved the day several times.

Could it be that the mysterious person secretly helping Yan Shiba is Su Liang?

The horse died, and Situ Xie returned home under the escort of secret guards. On the way, he felt that he might have been thinking too much. Things and people about Su Liang had occupied most of his mind recently. As a result, no matter what happened, he subconsciously thought that it was related to her. There might not be so many coincidences.

But this time Situ Xie really guessed it right.

Yan Shiba arrived at Yaocheng with his subordinates early this morning. She didn't take action herself because she had not fully recovered from her previous serious injury. After learning that Su Liang was arrested, she rushed here again without much rest, and her physical condition was much worse than at her peak.

Another reason is that Gu Ling said, don't go all out.

The whistle for retreat was blown by Yan Shiba. She learned from Gu Ling that Situ Xie was extremely powerful. If he took action himself, it would be difficult for the four killers to escape.

This time it was not Yan Yunlou who took over the murder business, but Yan Shiba who came to avenge Su Liang. Today is just a small test, first to see the strength of the guards around Situ Xie.

After returning home, Situ Xie wrote a letter and sent someone to secretly deliver it to the palace to Situ Han, who then went to see Situ Yao.

Situ Yao's body was fine, but she was mentally weak after this experience. Except for Lao Mu, she didn't see anyone. She only described the room she stayed in, but she didn't know the external situation or specific location, so she couldn't provide useful information.

Situ Xie specially introduced Yuan Ying to Situ Yao and said that he hoped they could become good friends.

His purpose is to use Yuan Ying to protect Situ Yao, if they really become friends. Just like Su Liang, she used her emotions to win over many helpers

Yuan Ying happily agreed. Situ Yao had always been obedient, so she naturally expressed her wish.

Since Situ Jing was poisoned, Situ Xie has changed a group of servants. All the food that comes into the mouth is inspected by Mrs. Yue first, and she is more cautious than before.

"I heard that the princess was going to marry her to the Kingdom of Qian this year." Yuan Ying sat beside Situ Yao's bed and asked curiously, "Have you met the crown prince of the Kingdom of Qian?"

Situ Yao nodded, "I've seen it before."

"Let me ask, do you really want to marry him, or are you just following your family's arrangements?" Yuan Ying asked with a smile.

Situ Yao looked lonely and sighed, "I don't know."

Yuan Ying: Hypocrisy. If you don’t admit or deny, you won’t say the wrong thing.

But Yuan Ying doesn't hate Situ Yao, she just has no feelings for her. After all, Yuan Ying was already a friend of Su Liang and Gu Ling when they met, and recent events made her put herself on the opposite side of the Situ family by default. And she didn't know what the uncertain grandmother wanted to do.

When Yuan Ying returned to the guest house from Situ Yao, she saw Situ Xie talking to Mrs. Yue.

Yuan Ying wanted to avoid it, but Mrs. Yue saw her and waved her over.

"Leave this matter to A Ying." Mrs. Yue did not ask for Yuan Ying's opinion and made the decision immediately, and Yuan Ying didn't even know what she was asked to do.

Situ Xie nodded, "Then thank you Madam Yue and Miss Yuan."

After he left, Mrs. Yue explained, still in a commanding tone, "Go back to Qian Kingdom, go to Xuanbei City, poison Xing Ji, and ask him to exchange the eldest grandson of the King of Yue for the antidote! No matter what you do, you must Rescue the eldest grandson of the King of Yue! The King of Yue will arrange for two people to assist you1

Yuan Ying narrowed her eyes, "Grandma, why do we get involved in these things?"

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Yue's face suddenly turned gloomy. She raised her hand and slapped Yuan Ying hard, "Do I need to explain to you what I did? Do you feel that your wings are stiff and you are no longer willing to obey?"

Yuan Ying lowered her head and knelt down as she had done countless times before, "My granddaughter doesn't dare, grandma, calm down."

Mrs. Yue snorted coldly, "I raised you siblings, gave you food, and taught you your skills! Otherwise you would have died! If you dare to disobey again, I will prevent you from seeing the wilderness for the rest of your life. 1

"I was wrong, grandma, please calm down." Yuan Ying said in a deep voice.

Mrs. Yue looked at Yuan Ying coldly, "Are you hiding something from me about Yuanye's recovery? Where did the thousand-year-old snow lotus come from?"

Yuan Ying's heart sank, she suspected that Mrs. Yue and Situ Xie had asked about Xuelian, so she said bravely, "Gu Ling gave it to me."

Last year in Yaocheng, it was not a secret that Gu Ling and Su Liang got married just to get the thousand-year snow lotus to give to another woman.

Mrs. Yue kicked Yuan Ying in the heart, "How did you meet Gu Ling? Do you also know the person named Su Liang? Say 1

Yuan Ying shook her head, "I only know Gu Ling. I met him when he was evacuating from an accident at his home. Because I saw his beauty, I fell in love with him and deliberately approached him, but was rejected. But he knew that I knew the poison technique. , also knew my previous destination, and later came to me to ask for the antidote. He owed me a favor, and he repaid it with thousand-year snow lotus last year. There was nothing else, and I didn’t know Su Liang 1.

"Why didn't you tell me earlier?" Mrs. Yue asked sharply.

Yuan Ying said in a deep voice, "I originally wanted to tell my grandmother, but after I came here this time, I heard that the Situ family had enmity with Su Liang and Gu Ling, so I didn't dare to mention it."

Mrs. Yue's eyes were filled with evil spirits, "Raise your head 1

Yuan Ying raised her head and looked at Mrs. Yue, her eyes had returned to calm.

Mrs. Yue's expression suddenly changed. She leaned over and pulled her up. She sighed, "Don't blame grandma. Grandma is just afraid that you will be deceived outside. The task entrusted to you this time is very important. The King of Yue agreed. As long as you If you can save his eldest grandson, you can marry one of his grandsons and enjoy endless prosperity and wealth in the future! Grandma is doing this for your own good, do you understand?"

Yuan Ying nodded, "Yes, I understand. Thank you grandma."

"Well, go get ready and set off today." Mrs. Yue patted Yuan Ying's shoulder gently.

Yuan Ying turned around and went out, her face turned cold. After packing his things in the next room, he met Situ Xie again and the two helpers he had arranged.

Situ Xie said again that Yuan Ying would be grateful for his hard work, and Yuan Ying took the two people to leave the Yue Prince's Mansion and go south.

Next, as long as the master of the Yue Palace goes out, he will be assassinated, and there are obviously two groups of assassins.

However, in just three days, Situ Xie and his children and grandchildren suffered six assassinations.

Situ Xie only suffered a few superficial injuries, but he was almost killed by the poison on the killer's weapon. Fortunately, Mrs. Yue detoxified him in time. Mrs. Yue said again that the poison was from the hands of her senior brother.

Situ Xie's two grandsons, Situ Zhang and Situ Min, went out for the only time. Although they came back alive, they were both seriously injured. One of Situ Min's legs was cut off directly, and it was impossible to restore it to its original shape. It was destined to become a cripple.

Situ Xie's anger continued to soar, but the killer was extremely cunning. He seemed to be everywhere, and he didn't seem to be using all his strength, let alone trying to fight. When he saw that the situation was wrong, he immediately ran away. This caused the entire Yue Prince's Mansion to be panicked and unable to sleep.

Situ Xie finally realized that his initial thinking was right and must have something to do with Su Liang. These killers came to avenge him for Su Liang! It's obviously a personal vendetta!

But from beginning to end, Su Liang was not captured by Situ Xie. He didn't even know where Su Liang was. Everything was thanks to his carefully cultivated grandson Situ Jing.

But who can say that what Situ Jing did has nothing to do with Situ Xie? This person was created by Situ Xie. When he first learned that Situ Xie had captured Su Liang, Situ Xie was really happy and even made a lot of plans for it.

However, as happy as I was then, I feel like vomiting blood now.

When he kept talking about the overall situation and thought that offending Qian Guo would not have serious consequences, he did not realize that offending Su Liang was what would really cause him trouble.

He judged everything based on the supremacy of interests, but this time he miscalculated.

What he saw in his eyes and what he thought in his mind were wars and national affairs and the overall situation of the world. He only regarded Su Liang as a minister that Duanmu Yi did not completely trust, but ignored that she was the core of a certain circle. And where the boundary of that circle is, Situ Xie has no idea.

Su Liang's master and friends vented their anger for her in Yaocheng. She was on a remote island and knew nothing about it. She lived a peaceful life, counting the days every day to figure out when Gu Ling would arrive.

Cen Man couldn't help but tactfully remind Su Liang that if Gu Ling was not in Xiangyue City, Qiu Cong might come back alone. She didn't want to pour cold water on Su Liang, but she was afraid that the greater her hopes, the greater her disappointment.

Su Liang was very calm about this. It was not that she had never considered that situation, but she still chose to trust her intuition.

Before going to bed that night, Su Liang once again spoke to the unconscious child in her belly, "Little God, if everything goes well, your father will arrive tomorrow. What do you think he will say when he sees you?"

Its daybreak.

Cen Man knew that today was a special day. After breakfast, she heard Su Liang said that she wanted to go to the beach, so she said that she would accompany her.

Nangong Qian sat on the lounge chair in the courtyard and watched with envy as Su Liang and Cen Man walked out of the small courtyard. Qiu Cong had been away for half a month, and she felt calm. Under Su Liang's treatment, her complexion was obviously better.

"Is grandpa coming back today?" Nangong Qian asked Qiuyue.

Qiu Yue shook her head, "I don't know, maybe." She knew that Su Liang was waiting for someone at the beach, but she didn't want to talk about this topic with Nangong Qian for fear of mentioning Gu Ling again.

"Where is my brother? When will he come back?" Nangong Qian asked.

Qiuyue shook her head again, "I don't even know about this slave. Miss, don't think so much, take good care of your body, you will see it eventually."

Su Liang and Cen Man, a pregnant woman and a blind man, didn't walk very fast. When they arrived at the beach, the sun had already risen high.

Su Liang looked into the distance and saw an endless sea, with no ships or people in sight.

The sun was too strong, so they went to where Qiu Cong usually parked his boat and found a shady spot next to a big rock to sit down and chat.

Until noon, no one came back, so Su Liang helped Cen Man and planned to go back.

"Are you coming again this afternoon?" Cen Man asked.

Su Liang nodded, "Wait until it gets cooler in the afternoon."

"That boy is so lucky." Cen Man sighed. Although she didn't know Gu Ling, she had heard Su Liang say a lot about him these days. Although in Su Liang's story, Gu Ling was the god she worshiped and could do anything, Cen Man still felt that marrying Su Liang was Gu Ling's greatest luck.

Su Liang smiled, "Me too."

Just as she was helping Cen Man to turn around, she glanced at the sea again and was stunned.

"What's wrong?" Cen Man asked.

Su Liang let her go, covered his forehead with his hands to block the sun, and looked into the distance again. This time he saw more clearly, and there was a moving black spot on the sea in his sight.

"They are back?" Cen Man also looked happy.

"It seems so." It was too far away and Su Liang couldn't see clearly yet, so he couldn't be sure.

"If not, stay away." Cen Man said. The purpose of her coming here is to protect Su Liang during Qiu Cong's departure and prevent outsiders from coming to the island.

In fact, it didn't take long, but Su Liang felt that time seemed to slow down. The black spots in her vision gradually enlarged and became clear. There was a boat and two people. She saw a familiar straw hat.

"It's Master who's back." Su Liang looked happy.

Cen Man breathed a sigh of relief, "Where's Gu Ling?"

Su Liang looked at the figure rising from the boat and showed a big smile, "Look, little god, that beauty flying over is your father."
