Just to Defeat Him

Yuan Ying was silent.

Lin Qi's heart moved, "So, can I like you?"

Having heard her name before meeting her, Lin Qi had fantasies and expectations about Yuan Ying. The feeling after meeting her was very strange. Curious, wanting to explore everything about her, feeling worried and nervous when seeing her in pain, and thinking she was very interesting.

This was definitely not because Yuan Ying was Su Liang's friend.

Yuan Ying shook her head, "I don't want to think about these things now."

Lin Qi comforted her instead, "It's okay, I understand, let's talk about it after your brother is safe. Let's start as friends first!"

Yuan Ying looked at Lin Qi deeply, "Okay."

After crossing the Liuxian River, the two rode on horseback again.

It was always Lin Qi who strongly asked to stop and rest, and Yuan Ying would stop. And Lin Qi was just worried that her body would not be able to hold on, after all, the injury was not healed.

...

Beijing.

Under Su Liang's careful treatment, Nangong Qian can now get out of bed and walk around. Although she still looks very weak, she can move freely. This is a crucial progress for her body that has been bedridden for a long time.

Qiu Cong was very happy. His foot injury was also recovering, and he was a little anxious, mainly because he felt that he owed Su Liang too much and wanted to heal it as soon as possible to help Su Liang.

Cen Man's eyes recovered slower than expected, but there were also obvious changes. Not only did she have a sense of light, but she could also see things hazily. Although she couldn't see clearly, she could distinguish obstacles. In the past two days, she could even distinguish everyone in the mansion based on the vague outlines. She could also recognize bright colors and no longer needed crutches to move around at home.

"For Grandma Cen!" Zheng'er ran over with a large bouquet of colorful flowers.

Cen Man saw the shadow of a little man running in her sight, and a loving smile appeared on her face. Bright yellow, fiery red, and rich green, in her eyes, a vivid and beautiful picture was blurred.

Cen Man leaned over and hugged the flowers Zheng Er gave her.

Zheng Er also had a small lavender flower in his hand. He stood on tiptoe and inserted it behind Cen Man's ear, smiling and saying, "People are more beautiful than flowers."

Cen Man's face was full of smiles. Qiu Cong, who was passing by not far away, watched quietly and also smiled.

Today, Gu Ling made fried fish nuggets that he and Zheng Er both liked to eat. After they were done, they ate in the kitchen. Because Su Liang had recently started to have morning sickness, other meals were fine, but she would feel sick as soon as she smelled the fishy smell of fish and shrimp.

"It's a pity that the baby doesn't like to eat fish." Zheng Er's mouth was full of oil after eating. He sat on the chair and shook his legs, saying with regret on his face.

Gu Ling shook his head, "Not necessarily."

Zheng'er was a little confused, "Aunt likes to eat, but Aunt and the baby can't eat together, so doesn't that mean the baby doesn't like to eat?"

Although Gu Ling felt that Zheng'er was very smart at a young age and his analysis made sense, he learned scientific knowledge about fertility from Su Liang and knew that this was affected by the secretion of hormones during pregnancy, not that the unformed little god showed a preference for food.

However, Gu Ling did not explain so much to Zheng'er, only saying that he would know after the baby was born.

Gu Ling was very nervous about Su Liang's morning sickness, always worried that she would not eat well, so in order to make Su Liang have an appetite, he began to create some new dishes.

Gu Ling, who is also quite talented in cooking, has never been associated with dark cuisine, because he is very serious and knows the ingredients themselves very well. No matter what he does, he can do it well after getting started.

So, Su Liang can eat some dishes she has never eaten before, and there is no bad taste, because Gu Ling has tried them before making them, and will let her taste them only when he is sure they are delicious.

Originally, Su Liang had been persuading Gu Ling that morning sickness was okay, a normal reaction, as long as she wasn't hungry, but seeing how enthusiastic and considerate Gu Ling was in taking care of her, and thinking of what he said, "This is the way he, as a father, feeds the child together with Su Liang," Su Liang let him go.

When Su Liang, who rarely went to the palace, met Duanmu Chen again, he was asked about the secret record of the Mu family's mechanism.

Although Situ Xie had previously confirmed that Old Mu and Su Liang were in the same group, she must have the complete secret record of the mechanism in her hands, but Situ Xie first thought that Su Liang should have handed the secret record to the royal family of Gan State, and secondly, if Su Liang didn't hand it over, Situ Xie didn't want her to hand it over and be obtained by the royal family of Gan State, so when he wrote a letter to inform Duanmu Yi, he didn't mention the secret record of the Mu family.

Duanmu Chen still didn't know that the heir of the Mu family was in Su Liang's house. He had too many things to do before, and didn't pay attention to the secret record. He remembered it again in the past two days.

Su Liang and Gu Ling carefully studied every drawing recorded in the secret record. The plan made it difficult for Su Liang to imagine what the weapon would look like, so Gu Ling explained it to her carefully.

After reading it from beginning to end and having a detailed understanding, the two came to the same conclusion: this Mu family secret record is far less lethal than what is rumored.

The ancestors of the Mu family were experts in mechanical engineering, and this secret record was also passed down several generations ago. Because of the legacy, the descendants did not delve into this path to innovate and improve it. Including Old Mu, he likes mechanical engineering, but he has never thought of using mechanical engineering to make large weapons.

This leads to the fact that this historical mechanical secret record focuses on mechanical engineering rather than weapons. There are even quite a few things that are cleverly combined by different mechanical engineering, which are very smart and can be praised as magical, but not very practical.

The most practical one is a large crossbow arrow, but Gu Ling believes that it needs to be modified. If it is made according to the original drawing, it is too troublesome to put the arrow on it, and the accuracy is not high.

So, when facing Duanmu Chen's inquiry, Su Liang did not hide it and said directly that she did have a complete Mu family secret record in her hand.

Duanmu Chen's expression immediately changed, "Where did you get it from?" Su Liang had it, which doesn't mean she got it, it might have been Gu Ling.

Su Liang said that he accidentally met the real descendant of the Mu family and gave it to her.

"You..." Duanmu Chen was more confused than angry at the moment. If Su Liang didn't plan to hand it over, why didn't Su Liang just keep it secret? If you plan to hand it over, why haven't you mentioned it before?

Su Liang explained that she didn't mention it before because she couldn't trust the Supreme Emperor, but later she forgot because there were too many things.

Duanmu Chen was a little speechless, "Then you admit today that you plan to leave it to me?"

Su Liang nodded, "Yes, but the emperor may not understand."

Duanmu Chen was wondering, had he been too spoiled to Su Liang recently? It seems that whenever there is a new baby in the palace, he always thinks about giving it to his unborn godson. When he comes to Su Liang for something, he always asks Chang An to run errands. She is rarely called into the palace. Even the fresh fruits as tribute are sent to her as soon as possible. Divide half and send it to Su Mansion...

However, Su Liang was not arrogant, he was just telling the truth, even though it didn't sound good.

Then, Su Liang and Duanmu Chen explained the contents of the secret record in detail.

After hearing this, Duanmu Chen's first reaction was, "You actually know so much about mechanism skills? What else can't you do?"

"I really don't know how to do it." Su Liang shook his head, "Gu Ling understands. When we were in Sujia Village, he once studied with an old carpenter in the village, who was also a grandfather of my family. He learned some carpenter skills, and he was a bit Base."

Duanmu Chen's mouth twitched slightly, and it was hard to tell for a moment whether it was more outrageous for Gu Ling to take the old carpenter from a remote mountain village as his teacher, or whether it was more outrageous for Su Liang to think that the craftsmanship taught by the old carpenter in the village to Gu Liang could be used as the basis of mechanism skills...

"Of course, I say this because my husband-in-law is very smart and talented in this area. I looked at those drawings, but I couldn't understand them very well." Su Liang looked serious.

Duanmu Chen hummed, "Yes, yes, your Gu Ling is the smartest, the smartest in the world."

Su Liang said that this is not an exaggeration at all. Not only is he smart, but he also works hard at everything he does, so of course he can do it.

"What's that like? I don't want to keep secret records, and let Gu Ling make some useful weapons?" Duanmu Chen asked with a frown.

Su Liang nodded, "Let him try it. He is modifying one of the weapons. If it succeeds, please ask the emperor to take a look."

"If I don't ask, when are you going to tell me?" Duanmu Chen hummed.

Su Liang smiled and said, "After the weapon is ready, give the emperor a surprise."

Duanmu Chen said in a cool tone, "Thank you!"

"Your Majesty is too polite." Su Liang looked respectful.

"When can I eat food cooked by Gu Ling himself?" Duanmu Chen suddenly changed the subject.

Su Liang was stunned for a moment, "Did he promise to cook for the emperor? He didn't tell me."

Duanmu Chen hummed, "Stop pretending to be stupid. I have eaten a 500-tael bun from your family, but I can't forget it."

Su Liang nodded, "No problem. Next time I make steamed buns and give a plate to the emperor."

After Su Liang left, Chang'an saw that Duanmu Chen had a strange look on his face. He frowned and sighed, not knowing what he was thinking.

Chang'an asked Duanmuchen if he wanted to go to the Queen Mother's Palace. Duanmuchen shook his head and said, "There are still some papers that have not been approved." Then he asked Changan, "Does Su Liang know any tricks to deceive people?"

Chang'an was surprised, "This...can't be right?"

"When I was the prince, I thought that I could not treat Su Liang as a friend, but as a partner. When I became the emperor, I must establish prestige and let her abide by her duties as a minister. I also felt that it was right for my father to treat Su Liang with kindness and power. "Yes, it's normal to doubt her." Duanmu Chen frowned, "But after I really became the emperor, I wanted to be friends with her, and I couldn't be dignified in front of her. Has she drugged me?"

After hearing the last part, Chang An coughed lightly and said, "If Mrs. Gu really had a medicine that could conquer people's hearts, she might have treated Mrs...." He felt disrespectful and did not dare to finish.

But Duanmu Chen already knew what Chang'an meant. Thinking about it, if Su Liang had such incredible abilities, she would have no enemies in the world. They could drug her casually and everyone would like her.

"It's indeed impossible." Duanmu Chen nodded, "That's my problem."

Chang'an said weakly, "Actually, I think there is nothing wrong with this now. On the other hand, the emperor has also gained Mrs. Gu's trust."

"It makes sense." Duanmu Chen's brows relaxed, "To be honest, I feel pretty good. There are very few people like this who can make me feel that I am neither superior nor suppressed, but are having an equal dialogue. No matter what they say, Don’t think twice.”

Duanmu Chen has developed the ability to be all-rounded since he was a child. He is cautious in everything and considers every word and action. Even in front of his mother, Queen Mother Xiao, he always followed the rules.

But only when facing Su Liang, he was very relaxed and showed more personal emotions.

…

Su Liang didn't know that Duanmu Chen had thought so much. After she returned home, she told Gu Ling that Duanmu Chen wanted to eat the buns he made, but Gu Ling said no.

"Master, are you afraid that he will take advantage of you?" Su Liang asked with a smile. Gu Ling's skill in making steamed buns is quite good. No matter how he makes them, they are always delicious. Su Liang felt that he could do better than her.

Gu Ling nodded, "He will definitely do it." This time I want to eat steamed buns, and next time I'll order food.

"Just refuse next time. I couldn't agree to it this time. I can't deny him too much face. No matter what, he is the king of a country." Su Liang shook Gu Ling's arm, "There's no need to do it specially for him. Just give him a few as a gift when you make it someday.”

"Okay." Gu Ling agreed. As for the weapons, he was already doing that.

Su Liang counted the time, "Lonicera should have arrived at Kasyapa City. Situ Jing has almost arrived at Yao City. Let's see if Yue Mei will come to trouble me."

…

Liangguo Yaocheng.

Yue Mei has been away for several days, and Situ Xie lives in seclusion.

Situ Jing arrived in Yaocheng that day. Instead of going to the Yue Palace to find Situ Xie, he directly sneaked into the palace secretly to see Situ Han. With his martial arts skills, this was easy.

The father and son had never met before. When Situ Han saw Situ Jing descending from the sky, he was wary at first, but when he saw his face clearly, he became excited, "Jing'er? You are Jing'er!"

Situ Jing nodded calmly, "It's me."

"Your eyes are okay?" Situ Han came closer, looked at Situ Jing's face, and was very happy, "That's great, it'll be okay. Just come back. Have you gone to see the emperor's uncle?"

Situ Jing shook his head, "No."

When Situ Han heard this, he looked satisfied. This was his son, who had been deliberately concealed and hidden by Situ Xie for so many years. He didn't want Situ Jing to be devoted to Situ Xie and not be close to him.

Situ Han pulled Situ Jing to sit down and asked about the whole story.

Situ Jing said that his grandfather was attracted by Su Liang. He pretended to repent and gained trust. Su Liang treated him. After he was cured, he secretly left and came to Liang Kingdom.

"Your grandpa didn't listen to you, but turned to Su Liang?" Situ Han snorted, "That girl is really good at deceiving people!"

"Father." Situ Jing called out.

Situ Han looked pleased and did not think about the possibility that Situ Jing was sent by Su Liang for the time being, so he mentioned Situ Xiang.

After reminiscing about the past, Situ Han said that he would formally restore Situ Jing's identity and allow him to return to the Liang Kingdom's royal family. This was what Situ Jing wanted, so naturally he would not refuse.

Then, Situ Jing went out of the palace to see Situ Xie.

When Situ Xie saw Situ Jing coming back, his eyes recovered and he seemed very happy, but he became suspicious in his heart.

After listening to Situ Jing's words, Situ Xie sighed, "Don't blame grandfather. In fact, if you can gain Su Liang's trust again and stay with her, it might be better, and it will be more beneficial to what we are going to do next."

Situ Jing looked calm, "I know. My grandfather tried his best to repair the relationship between me and Su Liang. I also pretended to repent and begged her to forgive me, but she refused to give me another chance. This is why I had to leave."

Situ Xie sighed deeply, "It's good to come back. Your father will definitely be very happy to know. He is very worried about your safety."

"I have just met my father." Situ Jing said with a calm expression, "My father said that there will be a banquet for the ministers tomorrow and I will make my official appearance."

Situ Xie's eyes flashed slightly, "That's very good. You have been living abroad for so many years and have suffered a lot of grievances. Grandpa will make up for you well in the future."

"I want the position of prince, and I hope my grandfather will help me." Situ Jing said bluntly.

"I will discuss this matter with your father." Situ Xie neither agreed nor refused.

When Situ Jing left the mansion, he met the twin brothers Situ Zhang and Situ Min from the Yue Palace. Situ Min almost killed Lin Ji last year, so he had a quarrel with Su Liang. He was beaten fifty times with a cane at that time, and his skin and flesh were bruised. Now he has recovered a long time ago.

When he saw Situ Jing, Situ Min's eyes were unkind, "Are you the bastard who ruined my grandfather's affairs and caused my eldest brother to be arrested? You actually have the nerve to come back?"

Situ Zhang frowned and pulled Situ Min to calm him down, but he didn't pull hard and let Situ Min rush to Situ Jing.

Situ Zhang was watching from the side. Situ Jing will fall into the hands of Qian Guo, and it is indeed inseparable from Situ Jing.

"Situ Jing? I heard that my grandfather randomly named me after my eldest brother." Situ Min snorted coldly, "You are not blind, how come you were cured so quickly? You weren't pretending to be blind at the beginning, right? That bitch Su Liang I heard that you were very good friends before? Why are you coming back to harm Liang Guo and Situ?

Situ Jing's eyes were slightly cold, "Get out of the way."

Situ Min sneered, "This is my home, you want me to get out of the way? Who do you think you are? My eldest brother is still suffering in the Qian Kingdom, and my little sister is forced to get married, but you are living a happy life, why? Give you two There are two choices. First, go to Qianguo immediately and rescue my eldest brother safely. I can reluctantly recognize you as my cousin. Second, kneel down and kowtow to me. For the sake of my grandfather, I can not argue with you for the time being. . Otherwise, I will see you once and beat you..."

As soon as Situ Min raised his hand, Situ Zhang heard the crisp sound of bones snapping, followed by Situ Min's scream like a pig being slaughtered.

After Situ Jing twisted Situ Min's arm, he raised his hand and slapped him, and then slapped him on the other side.

Situ Zhang's expression changed and he stepped forward to stop him, but was knocked away by Situ Jing's palm!

When Situ Xie received the report and rushed over, his two grandsons had been beaten to the point where their parents could not recognize them. Situ Jing was cruel and rude to Situ Zhang, hitting only the sore spots. And his force value is enough to easily crush these two.

"Stop!" Situ Xie was angry, "Jing'er, what are you doing?"

"He called me a bastard." Situ Jing dropped Situ Min, who was being beaten violently, with a calm expression, and took out a handkerchief to wipe the blood on his hands. He knew very well that Situ Min was responsible for Lin Xie's broken arm in Liang Kingdom last year. Situ Min scolded Su Liang because Su Liang was beaten for Lin Xie's harm to him.

Situ Xie's face darkened, "Min'er, what are you talking about? Why don't you apologize to Jing'er quickly!"

But Situ Min's face was so swollen that he couldn't speak.

Situ Xie sighed, "Jing'er, they were too worried about Jing'er being arrested, so they got angry at you. They are all brothers, and you were too cruel."

Hearing the word "brother", Situ Jing's mind immediately pictured Lin Wei's smiling face. He looked down at Situ Zhang and Situ Min on the ground and said coldly, "Uncle Emperor, they dare to be so disrespectful to His Highness the Crown Prince. Insulting words?"

Situ Xie frowned, then saw Situ Jing turn around and say, "I'm kindly helping the emperor's uncle train his grandson. You're welcome. Please let them remember that I am the second prince, and they have the guts to go to the father and say that I am a wild boy." kind."

Situ Xie looked at Situ Jing's leaving figure, his face suddenly darkened, and he felt more and more that this grandson, who he had high hopes for, had already lost control and was simply here to defeat him...
