The Second Half of Xiaonian's Life
The sound of whips, Duanmu Che's screams, Yan Shiba's wild laughter, and the whistling wind were all intertwined.
"Xiao Liang, this is not the way to go. The fifth prince is weak..." Lin Bojun looked anxious. He was ordered to save people, but he couldn't let Duanmu Che be beaten to death.
Su Liang sighed deeply, "That woman is not easy to deal with. General Nian, please do well and stop talking, and we won't make things difficult for you anymore."
Nian Jincheng, who was placed on the ground by Lin Bojun and sat with his back against a stone, clearly saw Su Liang's lowered hands silently waving when he was seriously discussing with him.
Only Nian Jincheng could see it, Lin Bojun was unaware of it.
Nian Jincheng understood and said with a cold face, "Now that things have happened, I have no way out, so why should I care about his life or death?"
Lin Bojun also sighed, "General Nian, you still have family members in the prison."
These words are tantamount to adding fuel to the fire.
Nian Jincheng will never forget that because Nian Ruxue and Nian Ruting caused trouble for the Nian family. When He first entered the prison, he was locked up in one place. Everyone accused him of being selfish and only caring about himself, blaming him for taking the credit for his achievements. Give it to Lin Bojun, blame him for not interceding with the emperor.
Nian Jincheng was scolded by his grandmother as a bastard and his father as a disaster star. Nian Jinxing wanted to tear him apart!
But he obviously didn't do anything.
The culprit Nian Ruxue ran away, and Nian Ruting asked Nian Jincheng to tell her where Gu Ling was. Nian Jincheng ignored her, and Nian Ruting sold him.
Nian Jincheng once cared about his so-called relatives, especially after something happened to the Gu family and Gu Ling left.
But now, Gu Ling is back. For Nian Jincheng, he is the most trustworthy relative.
Therefore, after Lin Bo finished speaking, Nian Jincheng spoke again, "I have also been burned with a soldering iron."
Yan Shiba asked loudly, "Where is the perm?"
Nian Jincheng said, "Chest."
The next moment, a shrill scream sounded, and Yan Shiba smiled in a perverted way, "Without a soldering iron, I cut off a piece of the gadget on His Highness the Fifth Prince's chest. Is that enough?"
"That's enough." Nian Jincheng said.
Lin Bojun's face looked ugly, but Huang Bo who was hiding in the dark couldn't help but show up, "Miss Su, General Lin, think of a solution quickly!"
In fact, Duanmu Che has only been beaten a few times so far, but if this keeps up, it won't take long to be beaten to death.
Su Liang stared and said to Nian Jincheng, "Although I don't know who saved you, maybe you will be interested in another person."
Nian Jincheng asked coldly, "Who?"
Su Liang said, "Nian Ruting. It is said that she betrayed you?"
"What do you want?" Nian Jincheng snorted coldly.
"It's very simple, tell her not to touch His Highness the Fifth Prince again, you and Nian Ruting, two for one, it's a good deal, isn't it?" Su Liang said.
Nian Jincheng nodded, "I agree, but I don't know who that woman is, and she may not agree."
"Just mention it!" Su Liang said.
Nian Jincheng coughed a few more times. Uncle Huang was anxious and urged him to speak quickly.
Nian Jincheng then spoke, "Stop!"
no response.
Nian Jincheng raised his voice, "Stop!"
Still no response.
Uncle Huang couldn't help it and shouted, "Stop!"
Yan Shiba's gloomy voice came from behind the boulder, "You want to change to the second one? Okay!"
Uncle Huang looked horrified, "No, no, no! No! General Nian has something to tell you!"
"Xiao Nian? What do you have to say? Hurry up!" Yan Shiba came out with half of his body exposed.
Nian Jincheng's voice was weak, "Stop fighting and ask them to bring Nian Ruting over. I want to take her away."
"Nian Ruting? Selling that bitch sister of yours? That's it, bring her here and chop her up!" Yan Shiba readily agreed and said to Su Liang, "Little girl, you heard this, bring that bitch from the Nian family, I’ll give you half an hour. If I can’t see her then, I’ll kill this loser!”
Before Yan Shiba finished speaking, Uncle Huang disappeared.
But a moment later, Uncle Huang came back and whispered to Su Liang and Lin Bojun that someone had gone to report to the emperor.
"Miss Su, I'm really worried about my master's health. Can I ask that woman to let you go and heal my master's injuries first?" Uncle Huang asked.
Lin Bojun frowned, "The other party won't agree, and it's too dangerous."
Su Liang asked Yan Shiba, "Excuse me, is the fifth prince okay? Can I go over and treat his injuries first?"
Yan Shiba sneered, "Little girl, is this your brother or your lover? Aren't you afraid that I will leave you here if you come over? Or are you planning to assassinate me?"
Su Liang sighed and shook his head helplessly at Uncle Huang. She is willing to take risks, but unfortunately if others don't give her a chance, there is nothing she can do.
Waiting for Nian Ruting to be brought, Yan Shiba sat cross-legged behind the boulder, with half of his body exposed. He held a needle in his invisible hand and stabbed Duanmu Che regularly. .
Duanmu Che fainted from the pain and did not make any sound.
Yan Shiba took the initiative to chat with Su Liang, "Little girl, you sound young, what's your name?"
Su Liang was silent for a moment and then spoke, "My name is Su Liang. If you are interested in me, how about we take turns asking each other questions, and whoever doesn't want to answer, it's over?"
Yan Shiba laughed, "Interesting! Come on, come on! Su Liang? Then I understand, you are the top scholar in martial arts today! When you take the martial arts exam, do you want to be an official? Or go to war?"
Su Liang replied, "I haven't thought about it yet. It's my turn. Are you sent by Gu Ling?"
Yan Shiba snorted, "So you thought I was from Gu Ling? I'm not!"
Lin Bojun frowned, and Huang Bo's expression changed.
Yan Shiba then asked, "I heard that your fiancé is the top scholar in today's science and technology and the head of the Ning family. Do you like his face or his money?"
Su Liang replied, "Children only make choices. He has them all, and I want them all."
The corners of Lin Bojun and Huang Bo's mouths twitched.
Nian Jincheng closed his eyes and lowered his head, otherwise he was afraid that he would be discovered when he smiled...
Yan Shiba laughed again, "It's promising!"
"Why did you save Nian Jincheng? Who sent you here?" Su Liang asked again.
Yan Shiba chuckled, "If you have to ask, it must be Gu Ling."
"You just said no." Su Liang said.
"Really? I was joking." Yan Shiba said.
"Who sent you here? Don't you dare tell me?" Su Liang snorted coldly.
"Little sister, don't worry, it's my turn to ask you." Yan Shiba said with a smile, "Have you and Ning Jing slept together?"
Su Liang shook his head, "Not yet. Why are you so interested in men and women? If you weren't sent by Gu Ling, are you Nian Jincheng's admirer?"
Yan Shiba laughed again, "Since you ask sincerely, little sister, and I like you very much, it doesn't hurt to tell you. I just want this matter to spread. I am not Nian Jincheng's admirer, I am someone else's Admirer."
Su Liang frowned, "Are you talking about Gu Ling?"
"You've asked one more question!" Yan Shiba smiled sweetly, "You guessed it right! That glimpse made me haunted. I wanted to look for him, but he disappeared without a trace. I want to come He asked his rumored only friend Nian Jincheng, but he happened to be arrested! What a coincidence! But I couldn’t have come in vain to save Nian Jincheng. If my dream lover was still alive! And when you get the news, you will definitely come to me.”
Su Liang looked confused, "If what you said is true, it is indeed possible to achieve your goal. But, how does Gu Ling know where to find you?"
"Just go to my house, then..." Yan Shiba paused and hummed, "Little sister, you were naughty and tried to trick me, and you almost fell into a trap! Since you are determined to help me spread the word, then go... A place that only Gu Ling and Xiao Nian know! Let him decide after I save Xiao Nian!"
"Sister, your strength and courage are amazing. Why don't you tell me your name so that Gu Ling can find you." Su Liang said softly.
Yan Shiba hummed, "Little sister, you asked two more questions. It's my turn. What will happen to you if Ning Jing is in love with someone else?"
Su Liang said casually, "Let him cleanse himself and leave the house. You don't have to do it. The Ning family's property belongs to me."
"Then what if you fall in love with another man?" Yan Shiba asked again.
Su Liang thought for a while and said, "Let's get together and part ways. I'll share half of the family property."
Lin Bojun:......
Uncle Huang:......
Nian Jincheng: ...He has to tell his brother about this.
Yan Shiba smiled happily. For those who didn't know, she thought she and Su Liang met by chance when they went up the mountain to admire the moon tonight and hit it off immediately.
…
Duanmu Yi, who was waiting in the palace, learned of the situation and immediately sent Nian Ruting there to ensure that Duanmu Che came back alive.
After they left, Duanmu Chen admitted his mistake, "I thought that Nian Ruting's affairs would be made public soon, so I brought it up when I saw Su Liang and Lin Bojun tonight."
"It doesn't matter." Duanmu Yi said with a serious face, "That bitch doesn't have much value, and there is no use keeping it. Fortunately, you told Su Liang, and Su Liang suddenly thought of using her as a bargaining chip. Otherwise, even if Che'er could survive, she wouldn't be able to survive. How injured! I really misjudged Nian Jincheng!”
Duanmu Chen sighed, "He must have broken the pot. It's just that I was a little surprised. How could it be a woman? There are not many powerful women in this world. If he is from the Gu Ling sect, could he have been there in the first place? Near the capital? Otherwise it wouldn’t have come so quickly.”
Duanmu Yi's eyes narrowed slightly, "Let's see if Su Liang and Lin Bojun can get some news to bring back."
"Does the emperor want to reuse Su Liang?" Duanmu Chen asked.
Duanmu Yi hummed, "A little girl with a hairpin's talent, she is smart and capable, but don't you think she is very mysterious?"
Duanmu Chen nodded, "Indeed. She grew up in the capital, but I have never heard of this person before. I don't know if it's because I kept a low profile or if I had some adventures after leaving the capital. But being so powerful at such a young age is indeed a rare sight. of genius.”
"Che'er had suspected that she was a craftsman," Duanmu Yi said.
Duanmu Chen was stunned, "Don't the Fifth Emperor's hearts fall in love with Su Liang?"
"That was after the martial arts competition." Duanmu Yi said, "Do you think Su Liang might be a craftsman? No evidence is needed, just tell me your feelings."
Duanmu Chen thought thoughtfully, "I feel that if there is a master behind Su Liang, her talents will be wasted if she is used for fine work. Martial arts is second to her, and her medical skills are very good. Such a person should be left as a Wouldn’t it be better to use it yourself?”
Duanmu Yi pondered, "It makes some sense."
"No need to be suspicious. If Father thinks there is something wrong with her, just give her a false position and dismiss her." Duanmu Chen said seriously.
In fact, this was a subtle way to provoke the general, and he secretly distanced himself from his relationship with Su Liang.
"We'll see after tonight." Duanmu Yi said.
…
When Nian Ruting was thrown in front of Su Liang, Su Liang didn't dare to recognize her at first glance. Her leg was not treated in time and was completely disabled this time. Her hair was messy, her face was pale, and her eyes were staring straight at Su Liang.
"Sister, the people you asked for are all here." Su Liang said very politely, "You can change people."
"Nian Ruting?" Yan Shiba called.
Nian Ruting asked, "Did Gu Ling send you here?"
Yan Shiba snorted coldly, "You little bitch, you actually covet my lover? Wait and see how I deal with you!"
Nian Ruting was dumbfounded. She was taken out of the prison and went to Wangxiang Mountain. Seeing this scene, she subconsciously thought that Gu Ling came to rescue Nian Jincheng and asked to take her away as well. Unexpectedly, the one who came was a woman who loved Gu Ling? !
"Little sister, you throw that woman surnamed Nian down the cliff first!" Yan Shiba said.
Nian Ruting's face froze, "How dare you?! I'm Gu Ling's fiancée!"
"Shut up! Otherwise, I'll chop you in half and throw you down!" Yan Shiba roared, "My little brother will catch you below! Just under the tree with lanterns hanging on it!"
"Okay. I'll throw her down, and you take His Royal Highness the Fifth Prince out from behind the rock, how about that?" Su Liang negotiated with Yan Shiba.
"Deal!" Yan Shiba agreed readily.
Then Su Liang grabbed Nian Ruting's arm and dragged her to the edge of the cliff. He looked at the old pine tree with a red lantern hanging on it. Just as he was about to throw it down, he asked Yan Shiba, "If your little brother is taking a nap, should you call him?"
Yan Shiba grabbed a stone and threw it down. A man groaned after being hit...
Su Liang guessed that it might be Yan Shiqi.
Nian Ruting had a bad feeling and hugged Su Liang's legs, "I won't go with her! Send me back to the prison!" If she was really Gu Ling's admirer, she would definitely not let her off easily.
Su Liang pulled Nian Ruting's hand away and pushed her down.
Nian Ruting's screams echoed through the mountains and stopped abruptly.
Yan Shiba kept his promise, dragged one of Duanmu Che's legs, walked out from behind the boulder, let go of Duanmu Che, and walked to a position close to the ancient pine, "Let Xiaonian come over, I'll take him away."
The sound of fighting suddenly came from behind the boulder. Yan Shiba's eyes sank, and he snorted coldly, "Little sister, I think you are a bit interesting, I gave you face, so I was so easy to talk to, but I didn't expect your people to attack me? You're looking for death!"
Su Liang didn't know who went over. It must be a master arranged by Duanmu Yi, who wanted to save Duanmu Che from behind, and then attack Yan Shiba.
But Yan Shiba certainly didn't come alone. She wanted to fulfill her promise to Su Liang and find Gu Ling as soon as possible. She brought many younger brothers tonight, each of whom was a brutal killer.
The sound of fighting continued. Seeing Yan Shiba was about to return to Duanmu Che, Su Liang hurriedly said, "Let them fight, we continue the transaction, how about it?" Then he dragged Nian Jincheng over.
Yan Shiba snorted coldly, "I'll give you another favor! Hurry up and send Xiaonian over!"
Lin Bojun followed behind, his hand on the hilt, ready for battle.
Su Liang just let go of Nian Jincheng, Yan Shiba pulled him over and threw him under the cliff!
Seeing this, Su Liang moved his feet and came to Duanmu Che's side.
Yan Shiba didn't leave immediately, sneered and drew his sword, rushing towards Su Liang, "I'm here to learn the skills of the top martial arts champion of Gan State!"
Su Liang met Yan Shiba, and Huang Bo took the opportunity to carry Duanmu Che away.
The masters arranged by Duanmu Yi all came out, and the killers on Yan Shiba's side also showed up, and the battle between the two sides was about to break out.
"Tired! No more playing!" Yan Shiba made a feint and jumped off the cliff.
Her younger brothers jumped down like dumplings.
Su Liang saw the people sent by Duanmu Yi chasing after him, and wanted to kindly remind them not to chase after him, but if they really didn't chase after him, Su Liang would be blamed in the end, and those people were not under her control, so she let them do whatever they wanted.
"Miss Su! Come and see my master!" Huang Bo was calling Su Liang.
Su Liang took another look at the red lanterns floating in the wind, put away her weapons and walked back.
Lin Bojun breathed a sigh of relief. As long as Duanmu Che was still alive, their mission would be completed. And Su Liang proposed to hand over another Nian Ruting, saving Duanmu Che half his life.
Su Liang was stunned when she saw Duanmu Che, and saw that his face was full of fine bloodshot. Looking closely, there were small red spots on his face, all of which were caused by needles...
And Yan Shiba's dozen whips also made two bloody lines on Duanmu Che's face, which was shocking.
There was a large pool of blood on the right chest of Duanmu Che. Yan Shiba really cut something on his chest.
Huang Bo was furious, "That vicious woman! Don't let me find her!"
Su Liang felt Duanmu Che's pulse and found that he was not in a good condition, but his life was not in danger.
She gave Duanmu Che medicine and applied medicine to stop the bleeding, then asked Huang Bo to take him back to the palace to report.
Huang Bo carried the unconscious Duanmu Che away, and Su Liang ignored those who went after Yan Shiba and went down the mountain with Lin Bojun.
…
When Su Liang and Lin Bojun entered the palace again, those who went after Yan Shiba had also returned.
All of them were alive, and a few were injured, but they were not dead.
"Those people looked like killers, but they didn't seem to be planning to kill anyone tonight." said the old man in the lead.
Duanmu Chen frowned, "Is he really Gu Ling's admirer, or a killer hired by Gu Ling? Yanyun Tower?"
Duanmu Yi's face was gloomy, "Let's discuss this matter later. Su Liang, you have made great contributions this time. If you want any reward, you can ask me. Next, you have to cure Che'er. This is the most important task I have given you."
Su Liang frowned slightly, "Your Majesty, can you arrange for someone else to treat His Royal Highness the Fifth Prince?"
Duanmu Yi's face was cold, "Why? You don't want to?"
Su Liang shook his head, "At first I was willing to treat His Royal Highness the Fifth Prince, even though His Royal Highness the Fifth Prince originally disliked me, and all these housekeepers Huang Bo knew it. Now His Royal Highness the Fifth Prince seems to have taken a fancy to me, but I have already been engaged, and I am afraid that further contact will cause His Royal Highness the Fifth Prince trouble."
Duanmu Yi's face was slightly relieved, "Yes, Che'er is determined to marry you, and it is not good to pester him. In this case, you teach Doctor Gao how to give Che'er acupuncture and medicine."
Su Liang nodded immediately, "Okay, thank you for your understanding, Your Majesty."
...
Su Liang returned home, and it was almost dawn.
Ning Jing walked out of the room, "How is it?"
Su Liang smiled, "Everything went well. Your brother fell into the hands of Yan Shiba, and next we have to think about how to get him out."
Ning Jing nodded, "Thank you."
"Xiao Nian can only rely on you for the rest of his life, how do you plan to settle him?" Su Liang asked.
Ning Jing thought for a moment and said, "Let him sell tea leaves. Or give him to Yan Yu to sell cloth."
