I Have Mysophobia (Fourth Update)

Regardless of whether he was satisfied with the result or not, Situ Xie could only thank Duanmu Yi for his grace and could not make any further demands on this matter, at least not tonight.

A night banquet finalized two major events.

Duanmu Qianqian will marry to the Liang Kingdom and become the crown prince of the Liang Kingdom.

And Gu Ling, who was on the top of Qianguo's most wanted list, suddenly became Qianguo's new Marquis of Changxin, with a title added to his title. The original Changxinhou Mansion has now become the Zhongxinhou Mansion, and Duanmu Yi even rewarded Gu Ling with a new mansion.

Many things, even if the inside story is complicated, will be easier to handle as long as some explanations are clear.

Su Liang was satisfied with the result.

After leaving the palace, Su Liang went back with Xing Yusheng and Lin Xueqing and took their carriage.

Qi Yan drove the car and slowly left the square in front of the palace.

After walking for a while, Xing Yusheng breathed a long sigh of relief, "Gu Ling is finally fine."

Su Liang knew that Gu Ling had rescued Xing Yusheng's mother Qin Yuan when she was a child. Xing Yusheng had wanted to find him after learning about it, which was naturally a good intention. However, in order to avoid self-defeating, and because there were no clues at all, she had to give up.

Now Xing Yusheng's sigh was from the bottom of his heart that he was happy for Gu Ling.

Lin Xueqing also heard Xing Yusheng talk about his relationship with Gu Ling, and said with a smile, "I wonder if that Gu Shizi... should be called Gu Hou now. Will he come back after getting the news?"

Xing Yusheng shook his head, "It's hard to say. I've actually never met him. I only heard that he is a beautiful woman who is like an immortal, and his personality is really Buddhist. He doesn't care about glory and wealth, otherwise he wouldn't live in Huguo Temple for a long time. "And," Xing Yusheng lowered his voice, "Who knows if the emperor is really willing to let him go. It's okay if he doesn't come back if he is living well elsewhere."

"Ms. sir, do you really want to see Gu Ling?" Lin Xueqing asked.

Xing Yusheng nodded, "Of course, I hope to get to know him and be friends. No matter what, what happened tonight is a good thing. At least he has a chance to choose. If he wants to come back, he can come back. As long as Liang Guo is involved, The relations between the two countries are acceptable, and whatever the emperor says must be acceptable in terms of face, it will not embarrass him too much. "

Su Liang thought so too.

The carriage stopped at the door of Su Mansion first. Su Liang got out of the car and said goodbye to Xing Yusheng and Lin Xueqing.

The car curtain was lowered and opened by Lin Xueqing. She smiled and said to Su Liang, "That Princess Yaoguang of Liang Kingdom is indeed beautiful, but in my heart, Sister Su is the most beautiful!"

The carriage slowly left and headed for the gate of Xing Mansion. Su Liang could hear Xing Yusheng's voice coming from the carriage, "I don't care, my wife is the most beautiful."

"I don't care, Sister Su is the most beautiful!"

"The lady is the most beautiful!"

"Sister Su is the most beautiful! I heard that Gu Ling is also very beautiful! I really want to know what he looks like."

"Am I not the most beautiful in Qing'er's heart?"

…

Su Liang shook his head and laughed, turned around, jumped over the courtyard wall and entered the door. Without him, I'm too lazy to open the lock, so it saves trouble.

Anyway, Xing Yusheng and Lin Xueqing also have the keys to the Su Mansion's door, and they usually have free access.

Su Liang was just thinking about telling Gu Ling the good news, but as soon as she entered the garden and before she got close to Yuanming Pavilion, a black shadow fell from the sky and blocked her in front of her.

The lean old man is Uncle Liang again.

"What are you doing?" Su Liang was too lazy to be polite to him. Because this old man has never been polite to her from the beginning to now.

"You should have seen in the palace tonight that His Royal Highness the King of Yue has really done a lot for the young master. He was even willing to give up his dignity and beg the emperor in public. If you know where the young master is, just let him come out. He will be fine!" Uncle Liang! Said coldly.

Su Liang shook his head, "I'll say it again, I don't know."

"You!" Uncle Liang snorted, "Young Master has been with you before, how could you not know?"

Su Liang was speechless, "You did what he asked you to do. Of course he would know about it next and come out on his own if he wanted to. If he didn't want to come out, he just didn't want to see you and Prince Situ again. Isn't this difficult to understand? Here This is the Su Mansion, my home. Please leave immediately. If I see you breaking into my home without permission again, I will not be polite!"

Uncle Liang looked at Su Liang with contempt, "It's just you? Do you think that if you take the first prize in martial arts, you will be invincible? Don't forget who saved you in Sujia Village!"

"Of course I haven't forgotten who saved me. I also remember that you hated me very much and wanted to throw me out to die. Do you think you are my benefactor? At your age, you can't be so shameless. Is it thick?" Su Liang said coldly.

Uncle Liang was so angry that he blew his beard and glared. Su Liang walked around him and walked towards Yuanming Pavilion, "Look for someone elsewhere!"

Su Liang walked into Yuanming Pavilion. There were candles in the flower hall on the first floor, and it was not dark.

She walked upstairs, and as soon as she turned the corner, there was light in her room upstairs.

Su Liang chuckled, walked upstairs and entered the room, "It feels like a voice-activated light has been installed. Semi-automatic, great god card."

Now Gu Ling can basically understand Su Liang's "nonsense". He was knitting Chinese knots by the moonlight outside the window and was almost finished.

Su Liang put one hand behind his back, "Master, I brought you something delicious, guess what it is."

Gu Ling shook his head, "I won't guess."

Su Liang was speechless and put a bunch of grapes wrapped in a scarf on a plate on the table, "Then don't eat them."

The former Changxin Marquis Mansion, and now the Zhongxin Marquis Mansion has a vineyard, and there are ripe fruits recently. Mrs. Xing always asks her servants to bring some to Su Liang.

But the grape variety at today's palace banquet is different from that at the Marquis Zhongxin's Mansion, and the taste is also different.

Su Liang thought it was delicious, so he brought a bunch back for Gu Ling before leaving.

Seeing Gu Ling wash his hands and start eating grapes, Su Liang did not mention the palace banquet for a while, but thought of a tongue twister and said it out, "Green grapes, purple grapes, green grapes are not as purple as purple grapes, eat grapes without spitting out the grape skins, don't eat grapes but spit out the grape skins, if you don't want to eat grapes, you have to eat grapes without spitting out the skins."

Su Liang finished reading it in one breath without making any mistakes, and felt great, but then she saw Gu Ling frowning at her, and her thin lips opened slightly, "Are you crazy?"

Su Liang kicked Gu Ling across the table, "You are crazy, this is called a tongue twister, specially used to practice eloquence. Can you repeat it word for word?"

Gu Ling nodded, "Yes, but I don't want to."

Su Liang rubbed his forehead, "Master, do you feel that you are getting more and more irritating?"

Gu Ling shook his head, "I'm not mad at myself. I don't feel that."

Su Liang: ... Makes sense...

After drinking a glass of water, Su Liang told Gu Ling about the palace banquet.

"Your grandfather, at least for now, really wants to help you. Whether he has ulterior motives or not is unknown." Su Liang said, "You are now the Marquis of Changxin in the country of Gan. How do you feel?"

Gu Ling asked in return, "Do you have a salary?"

Su Liang chuckled, "God, when you go to court tomorrow morning, go to the gate of the palace to ask for an audience. When you see the emperor, ask him in front of all the civil and military officials how much salary he will give you every year. If the money is not enough, you don't want to be a marquis."

"Without a salary, you support me?" Gu Ling looked at Su Liang and asked.

Su Liang shook his head, "That won't work. I don't lack money, but if you restore your identity and live a rich life, people will wonder where your money comes from. After all, the Gu family was raided a long time ago, and you don't look like you can make money. As everyone knows, you only have one friend, and now he is on the run."

"I can make money." Gu Ling finished eating the grapes, wiped his hands, and picked up the Chinese knot that was about to be made.

Su Liang couldn't help but praise, "It's really beautiful, that's it." She just described it to Gu Ling, but she didn't expect him to make it up, and Su Liang herself couldn't do it.

"You want? One hundred thousand taels." Gu Ling said.

Su Liang said faintly, "Why don't you rob it?"

"I can rob your money, you can't stop me. I choose not to rob, but to do business with you." Gu Ling said.

Su Liang bowed and said faintly, "Then I really want to thank you for showing mercy."

After saying that, Su Liang felt that the two of them were really talking more and more nonsense, just talking about nothing.

"Let's talk about it seriously." Su Liang's face became serious, "When are you going to show up?"

"Let's talk about it later." Gu Ling shook his head.

"Yes, if you show up tomorrow, it will be like you have agreed with Situ Xie and come with him." Su Liang said, "At least three or five days. I don't know where the marquis' mansion granted to you by the emperor is. When you show up in the capital, you will have to move to your own house."

"No hurry." Gu Ling said, finishing the last bit of the Chinese knot and handed it to Su Liang.

"One hundred thousand taels, I can't afford it." Su Liang shook her head. Although she wanted it very much. She liked this kind of red and festive things. Nothing else, just think it looks good.

"Give me the flower cards." Gu Ling negotiated.

Su Liang smiled, "You wish! That's mine!"

"Okay." Gu Ling nodded, still handed over the Chinese knot, "You can owe it, one hundred thousand taels."

"That's fine." Su Liang really liked it, so he took it, thinking that debts were between them, so of course they would let it go and write it off.

As a result, when Su Liang was about to go to bed, Gu Ling brought a wooden sign with 100,000 taels of silver engraved on it, and the signature was two water drops. It was Su Liang's code name as agreed before.

Su Liang took it and handed it to Gu Ling, completing the "IOU ceremony".

"Master, how many small wooden signs did you make to trick me?" Su Liang asked.

Gu Ling walked out, "A lot, guess."

Su Liang thought about it, she owed Gu Ling a "wish-fulfilling" and 100,000 taels of silver, and Gu Ling only owed her a funny show.

Hanging the Chinese knot on the head of the bed, Su Liang thought: Whatever, even if she can't pay it back in the end, Master Gu can't do anything to her.

...

The next day, the news that Gu Ling was pardoned and became the Marquis of Changxin spread throughout the capital.

The name that was once a taboo has now returned to people's mouths again. Everyone is talking about whether Gu Ling will return to the capital and become the Marquis of Changxin.

Many people think he will come back, but some think he won't.

Su Liang didn't go out today because Wan Hui sent Zheng'er here early in the morning. The couple had to go out of town for business, and Zheng'er happened to be clamoring to find Su Liang, so they asked her to take care of him for a day.

The weather was fine, and Su Liang took Zheng'er to row on the lake.

The sun shone warmly on his body, Zheng'er lay on the side of the boat, stretched out his little hand to touch the water, and laughed happily when he touched it.

After a while, the little guy lost interest in the water-touching game, staggered to Su Liang and sat down, looking at Su Liang and asked, "Auntie, do you miss Uncle Ning?"

Su Liang nodded, "Yes."

"I miss Uncle Ning too!" Zheng'er held his little face and said, "When will he come back? Will he come back during the New Year?"

Su Liang shook his head, "I don't know."

After a while, Zheng'er fell asleep with his head on Su Liang's legs. Su Liang let go of the oars and let the boat drift gently on the lake.

...

On the other side, Situ Xie, who came to visit, got out of the car and saw a big lock hanging on the door of Su Mansion.

Thinking that Su Liang was out, Situ Xie was about to leave when Xing Yusheng and Lin Xueqing came from next door.

Knowing that he came to see Su Liang, Xing Yusheng asked him to inform him.

Then, Situ Xie watched Xing Yusheng take out the key and open the door of Su Mansion, and led Lin Xueqing in.

When Xing Yusheng and Lin Xueqing found Su Liang, she was taking a nap on the boat with Zheng'er in her arms, leisurely.

Hearing their whispers, Su Liang woke up. Being careful not to wake Zheng'er, he sat up and rowed the boat to the shore.

Xing Yusheng took Zheng'er, and Lin Xueqing pulled Su Liang up, and then told her that Situ Xie was outside the door.

"I didn't know if you wanted to see me, so I didn't let him in. Although it was a bit rude, but he came to the door without saying hello. It was rude first." Xing Yusheng said.

"Everyone is at the door. Let's see what happened to him." Su Liang planned to meet Situ Xie.

Qi Jun helped invite people to the front hall, and Su Liang went back to Yuanming Pavilion, changed clothes, and went there.

Xing Yusheng and Lin Xueqing originally came to see Su Liang and go to the Duke of Qin's Mansion. Since Su Liang had guests, they simply took Zheng'er away who was sleeping.

When Su Liang saw Situ Xie, he was sitting in the front hall of Su Mansion drinking tea.

"I'm sorry to bother you, Miss Su." Situ Xie stood up and cupped his hands.

Su Liang nodded, "I am rude and do not treat guests well. Your Highness, King of Yue, please take a seat."

After they both sat down, Situ Xie's entourage held a gift box and placed it in front of Su Liang.

"This is..." Su Liang felt inexplicable.

Situ Xie explained with a smile, "This is the thank you gift General Peng Wei asked me to bring to Miss Su. Miss Su saved his life at the border. I also want to represent the Liang Kingdom to thank Miss Su for ensuring that the Liang Kingdom has not lost anything." A general."

"The King of Yue is too kind. Since it is a gift from General Peng, I will accept it." Su Liang looked calm.

Situ Xie waved his hand, retreated, looked at Su Liang and said, "I would also like to thank Miss Su for taking care of Ling'er in the past year."

When Su Liang heard this, his expression was indifferent, "Please forgive me for not understanding what His Highness the King of Yue is talking about."

Situ Xie was stunned for a moment, "I am not thinking well. I will not mention the past. I came here today just to ask Miss Su to tell him that if there is any trouble in the future, remember that I am my grandfather. Past Due to various reasons, I want to take care of him, but because I am too far away, I am unable to do so. At this point, I just want to see if he is well. As long as he is well, I will be relieved. "

Su Liang smiled, "His Royal Highness the King of Yue loves and protects his grandchildren. I saw it last night and was deeply moved. Thank you His Highness the King of Yue for helping bring General Peng's gift, but is there anything else?"

Seeing that Su Liang didn't answer his words, Situ Xie sighed deeply and stood up to say goodbye, "It's Yao'er's first time traveling far away. I wonder if Miss Su will have time to travel with her? She likes Miss Su very much."

Su Liang kept smiling, "If Princess Yaoguang wants to play here, she can ask Her Highness the Sixth Princess to accompany her. When the Sixth Princess marries to Liang Kingdom, they can also take care of each other."

Situ Xie took a deep look at Su Liang, nodded and said, "That makes sense. I will mention this to Emperor Qian. Farewell."

"His Royal Highness the King of Yue, walk slowly." Su Liang stood at the door of the front hall and looked at Situ Xie's back. If you ignore his gray hair, he looks like a middle-aged man.

Su Liang returned to Yuanming Pavilion with the gift box from Peng Wei. It was very quiet and she was being taken out to play.

She went upstairs and saw Gu Ling sitting by the window reading a book. The shadows of the trees were swaying gently with the breeze. His side face was calm and as beautiful as a painting.

"Great God, your grandpa is here and wants me to tell you something." Su Liang said.

Gu Ling's slender fingers turned over a page of the book, her thin lips opened slightly, and her voice was cold, "I fell asleep."

Su Liang put the gift box on the table and asked in confusion, "Why do you reject him so much?" She didn't think Situ Xie was a good person, nor did she want to persuade him to make peace, because she only knew that Gu Ling was a very good person, and she didn't understand Situ Xie. Xie, I don’t know what happened between them, but I am curious about the reason why Gu Ling doesn’t accept Situ Xie.

A leaf whirled into the room like a colorful butterfly and landed on Gu Ling's black hair. He reached out and picked off the leaves, clamped them in the book, and spoke again in a calm tone, "The Emperor of Liang is his son. I have mysophobia and don't like to deal with dirty people."
