Good Idea

Su Liang followed Gu Ling's line of sight and looked at the crowded crowd on the street below, "Is there anyone suspicious?"

Gu Ling nodded slightly, "Someone was looking at me just now."

Su Liang smiled when he heard it, "You are good-looking, of course someone will look at you."

Gu Ling could no longer see the shadows of Feng Ming and Zhu Zan, there were too many people. Lin Bojun arranged soldiers to maintain order and smooth the flow of people to avoid accidents.

Ji Xiaoshu saw Ji Yuebai below and wanted to find him, but saw Ji Yuebai carrying his youngest son through the crowd to the restaurant.

"Brother! Brother!" Ji Yuebai's youngest son waved excitedly at Ji Xiaoshu.

Ji Xiaoshu ran down from upstairs, "Brother, you're here! Dad, why did you come just now? Let's go play!"

Ji Yuebai shook his head, "There are too many people now, don't go out."

Ji Xiaoshu thought that he had promised Gu Ling that he would not run out, so he looked outside and nodded helplessly, "Okay then." Then he laughed again, "Master bought me a beautiful lantern, brother, come quickly, I'll give it to you to play with!"

Duanmu Chen went out of the palace incognito, and in order to avoid causing a commotion, he went to Wanjia Restaurant in a low-key way. He wanted to bring his children out to have some fun, but the queen mother was afraid that it would be unsafe with too many people, so she left the children in the palace.

"You two are so relaxed, and you don't have to take care of the children yourself. Where's Nuannuan?" Duanmu Chen went to find Gu Xiaonuan as soon as he entered the door.

Su Liang pointed to the next door, "It should be at Old Qin's place."

Duanmu Chen poured himself a glass of wine, picked it up and walked to the window, looking at the bustling people and colorful lanterns below, and sighed, "Finally, the world is peaceful."

Su Liang reminded Duanmu Chen, "Your Majesty, if you stand there, if someone wants to assassinate you, you will be a sitting duck."

Duanmu Chen smiled when he heard it, "I am in the same room with you two, why should I be afraid of assassination?" Then he sat down next to Gu Ling and drank half a glass of wine, "You are the people who make me feel the most secure. If someone wants to kill me, come on, let me watch how Gu Ling kills people again."

"Your Majesty can go downstairs to have fun with the people." Gu Ling said.

Duanmu Chen snorted, "I know, you think I disturbed your world of two. There are so many people downstairs, if something happens to me, won't it cause trouble for you? I'd better stay here and chat with you."

"Uncle Emperor!" Ji Xiaoshu pushed the door open and rushed in, pulling Duanmu Chen out, "Come on, come on!"

Duanmu Chen was puzzled, "Xiaoshu, where are you taking me? I can't go downstairs to play."

"No, I promised my master and his wife! I'm very good! We are playing games, and we just need someone, so my father asked me to invite Uncle Emperor!" Ji Xiaoshu dragged Duanmu Chen to the door.

Duanmu Chen:... Well, he is quite popular with children.

The next moment, Ji Xiaoshu turned around and smiled at Gu Ling, "I took Uncle Emperor away, and my master must thank me! Don't punish me to run next time!"

Gu Ling actually said, "Thank you." Then he said, "You don't have to run, but I'll punish you to write next time."

Duanmu Chen was speechless: Is he so annoying?

Ji Xiaoshu: ...He knows!

When they got to the next room, the game that Ji Xiaoshu was talking about was actually a kind of chess and card that Gu Ling taught them. This was also made by Gu Ling based on Su Liang's description, and was specially brought here for everyone to play together.

Zheng'er was explaining the rules to everyone. Duanmu Chen found it interesting, waved his hand to tell everyone not to be polite, and sat down next to Ji Yuebai, holding those beautifully made and special wooden signs.

Zheng'er finished quickly, "Is there anything you don't understand?"

Ji Xiaoshu asked Ji Yuebai, "If Dad doesn't understand, just ask directly, so as not to lose face later."

Ji Yuebai snorted, "You'll know after you play."

Duanmu Chen saw that the two children were definitely veterans, and he didn't dare to say harsh words rashly. After all, he was not familiar with the rules, so when grouping, he decisively chose to be in the same team with Zheng'er and Ji Xiaoshu.

Sure enough, in the first game, the novice team led by Ji Yuebai lost quickly.

"Interesting! Let's play again!" Duanmu Chen said happily.

…

The Wanjia Restaurant is not accessible to ordinary people today, especially after Duanmu Chen came, it was heavily guarded. The people inside were not ordinary nobles, but the highest power circle in the world today.

Qi Yan took Nangong Qian for a walk, and Nangong Qian had an exquisite little lantern in her hand. The two also came to the restaurant.

Lin Bojun was standing at the door of the restaurant, listening to his subordinates reporting the situation in various places. There was no riot for the time being.

Seeing Qi Yan and Nangong Qian being stopped, Lin Bojun opened his mouth to let them in.

"Do you need help?" Qi Yan asked Lin Bojun.

Lin Bojun patted his shoulder, "You go up and sit down."

At this moment, there was a cry of surprise from outside the restaurant. Lin Bojun's expression froze, and he looked over quickly, and saw a figure in black clothes flying through the crowd at a very fast speed, holding up a tilted high shelf that was about to fall. There were many lit lanterns hanging on the wooden shelf, and there were people around. If it really fell down, it would definitely hurt people, cause riots and trampling, and even catch fire.

A danger that almost happened was eliminated. Some people cheered and shouted "Lady Gu" because it was Gu Ling who discovered the problem and took timely action.

Lin Bojun immediately ordered soldiers to help vendors everywhere to reinforce their stalls, especially the racks with lanterns.

When Duanmu Chen, who was happily playing cards upstairs, received the report, he was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "With Gu Ling here, I feel relieved."

"My master is so awesome!" Ji Xiaoshu especially liked to praise his master when he was not around Gu Ling.

At this time, Gu Ling had already helped fix the shelf, returned to the restaurant, and sat next to Su Liang.

"My master is so handsome." Su Liang gave a thumbs up.

Gu Ling looked at Su Liang's beautiful smiling face, reached out and closed the window to block the outside view, then hugged her and kissed her deeply.

After a while, the window opened again. The two of them continued to look outside while talking. If they found anything wrong, they would take action immediately.

Lin Bojun was keenly aware that there were two men walking back and forth near the restaurant twice, which seemed suspicious. He was about to arrange for someone to pay close attention when he saw the two men coming towards him.

It was Feng Ming and Zhu Zan, who were stopped before they even got close to Lin Bojun.

Soon, a soldier came over and reported to Lin Bojun, "Those two claimed to be from Xingluo Island and wanted to see His Highness the Regent."

Of course Lin Bojun knew where Xingluo Island was. Hearing this, he ordered to keep an eye on them, then turned and went upstairs to find Gu Ling and Su Liang.

Su Liang was surprised, "People from Xingluo Island?"

"Do you want to see him? Or should he be arrested first?" Lin Bojun asked.

Gu Ling stood up and closed the window again. Su Liang said to Lin Bojun, "Second brother, please bring them here." If they came to assassinate them, they would not say hello. Besides, among the younger generation who want to kill Gu Ling and Su Liang, it is almost impossible to do so. If Xingluo Island really sends a killer, it must be an old guy.

Soon, Lin Bojun brought Feng Ming and Zhu Zan into Gu Ling and Su Liang's room.

"Second brother, go get busy." Su Liang said.

"Be careful." Lin Bojun gave Feng Ming and Zhu Zan a cold look and left again. He is responsible for the security of the entire city tonight, not just to protect this restaurant. He is indeed very busy and has no time to stare here.

Su Liang looked at Feng Ming and Zhu Zan. They were both in their early twenties and looked ordinary. They might have been able to get by in disguise.

Su Liang felt that they were not sent by Sheng Yue, otherwise they would have directly mentioned Sheng Yue's name instead of just talking about Xingluo Island. It would not be enough time to leave Shengyue, return to the island, and then send people over.

"Who are you? Why are you looking for us?" Su Liang said.

Zhu Zan looked at Feng Ming. Feng Ming looked at Su Liang with open eyes, cupped his hands and said, "My name is Feng Ming, and his name is Zhu Zan. We were originally from Xingluo Island."

"Who is on Xingluo Island?" Su Liang asked a question that sounded a bit strange. Led by the elders, there are several relatively powerful families on Xingluo Island with a relatively large number of people. Others were recruited to the island sporadically, either voluntarily or forcibly. The older ones had families, while the younger ones were basically alone.

Feng Ming thought for a moment, understood what Su Liang was asking, and answered, "Both of us were recruited to Xingluo Island three years ago. We have no relatives on the island. That time the regent led troops to the island. After rescuing people, since there was no news about Mr. Sheng Yue, the island owner ordered me and I to go out of the island to investigate Mr. Sheng’s whereabouts. "

Su Liang looked indifferent, "You came here to find Sheng Yue? Do you want to ask us if we killed him or captured him? But even if we go far away, it won't take so long to get here, and we won't go back for several months to recover. , don’t you plan to go back?”

Feng Ming admired Su Liang's insight and nodded, "Yes. The two of us followed Mr. Sheng when we were on the island, so we were hostile and ostracized by the family of the eldest elder He Wei. Because we didn't know Mr. Sheng's whereabouts, we We don’t dare to go back rashly. Moreover, we didn’t go to the island completely voluntarily. After three years on Xingluo Island, we also felt that it was not a good place.”

"Are you planning to abandon the dark side and turn to the bright side?" Su Liang smiled. Feng Ming is a very talkative person, and he is very shrewd at first glance, and he does not hide his shrewdness at this moment, as if he wants Su Liang to know that he is useful.

Feng Ming nodded, "Yes. If you two don't dislike me, the two of us are willing to be loyal to you."

"What skills do you have? Or do you know any secrets of Xingluo Island that you can provide to us?" Su Liang asked directly.

Feng Ming said, "Perhaps many Divine Doctor Su already know what happened on Xingluo Island. But we can tell you two everything we know. We have no other abilities, and our martial arts are acceptable."

Hearing this, Su Liang chuckled and said, "Okay. Since you want to take the bright road, I can give you a chance. We will discuss the matter of Xingluo Island later. There is a festival in the city tonight, and it is easy for trouble to happen if there are many people. You each find one. From a high place, help keep an eye on the people and prevent trouble."

Zhu Zan was stunned for a moment, but Feng Ming already agreed, "Yes, we will do our best!" After saying this, he pulled Zhu Zan out.

When going downstairs, Zhu Zan asked in a low voice, "Are you... going to use us?"

Feng Ming shook his head, "It's a test. They are all mentally superior people. If you hesitate again, it's better to leave as soon as possible. Dealing with them is just like dealing with Mr. Sheng. You can't play any tricks, otherwise it will not be beneficial." "

Zhu Zan sighed slightly, "I don't mean to be mean, I'm just a little worried and not as calm as you. That's all, I will listen to you from now on. You are the boss, I trust you!"

Soon, Feng Ming chose a position and then found a position for Zhu Zan. The two of them reached a high place and stared at the crowd below attentively, not wanting anything to happen, but hoping to have a chance to perform.

Thanks to the careful arrangements of the Lin brothers and the personal supervision of Gu Ling and Su Liang, there were no major disturbances in the grand Lantern Festival during the Lantern Festival in the capital, and the minor disturbances were quickly settled without any casualties.

Late at night, people returned home, the streets gradually became quiet, and people in the restaurants also left one after another.

Duanmu Chen played cards all night and was still not satisfied, so he invited Ji Yuebai and the children to come to the palace to play together another day.

Finally, Lin Bojun personally led the troops to escort Duanmu Chen back to the palace.

Qi Yan carried Zheng'er on his back, and Gu Ling hugged Ji Xiaoshu, who was hanging on him like a little monkey, and went home together.

Feng Ming and Zhu Zan thought that nothing would happen, so they got together again and went to Su Mansion silently.

When they arrived at the Su Mansion, the door was closed, and the two stood outside the door looking at each other. Soon the door opened, and Qi Yan called them in and took them to Yuanming Pavilion.

The children were all asleep, but Su Liang didn't come down and asked Gu Ling to "entertain" them.

Feng Ming and Zhu Zan sat down and met Gu Ling's indifferent eyes, which were more nervous than when Su Liang was talking to them.

Gu Ling didn't ask them what they did tonight, because he saw them all. Feng Ming focused more on the children and helped several children who fell. Zhu Zan helped people put out a fire.

"You originally followed Sheng Yue. What do you know about him?" Gu Ling got straight to the point. They already knew the basic situation on Xingluo Island from Min Rou and Sheng Yue. But even though Sheng Yue took the initiative to come to the Su Mansion, was imprisoned for a period of time, and confessed some things, Gu Ling and Su Liang still felt that there were still secrets about him. In fact, Sheng Yue is more mysterious to them than Mo Yan.

Zhu Zan seemed to have no idea, and it was still Feng Ming who spoke. He thought for a while and then said, "Master Sheng has great martial arts skills and an extraordinary mind. He is not surprised by changes and does not express his emotions and anger. He is a very powerful person. We went to the island It was almost time, but Mr. Sheng soon gained the appreciation of the island owner and was entrusted with important tasks. The island is controlled by the elders' families, especially the He family. It is difficult for young people like us who come to the island alone to get ahead. Even if he had the opportunity, he would be suppressed even if he made meritorious deeds. But under such circumstances, Mr. Sheng still became someone who could compete with the great elder. Even if there were not many people following him, we only followed him secretly and did not dare to show it openly. Go against the He family."

Gu Ling looked calm and said, "Tell me something I don't know."

Feng Ming spoke again, "I wonder if the prince knows that Mr. Sheng has a younger brother?"

"Go on." Gu Ling looked calm.

"Last year, I went with Mr. Sheng to do something. He asked me if I had any relatives alive. After I confessed the situation, he rarely took the initiative to say that he had a younger brother somewhere else." Feng Ming said, " I just said that, and I didn’t dare to ask any more questions, because everyone on the island thinks that Mr. Sheng has no relatives.”

Zhu Zan's expression showed that he didn't know about this before, and Feng Ming never mentioned it to him.

Gu Ling knew that Sheng Yue had a younger brother, Cheng Yun. If Feng Ming had said this a few months earlier, it would have been useful, but it is of no use now.

Feng Ming said he didn't know anything else, and Zhu Zan didn't even know.

Both of them were waiting for Gu Ling to decide whether to use them or to suspect them and catch them, maybe even kill them...

Gu Ling called Qi Yan to come and arrange for Feng Ming and Zhu Zan to stay.

"Thank you, Master!" Feng Ming said politely, knowing that he had passed the first level.

…

When Gu Ling returned to the room, Su Liang had put his daughter to sleep and was waiting for him.

"How is it?" Su Liang asked.

"Let's see again." Gu Ling was not so gullible when an outsider suddenly appeared, "How is the truth serum?"

Su Liang shook his head, "The second time I tried the medicine, I killed Nian Ruxue. If I try the medicine again, I have to find death row prisoners from the sky jail. There is no new progress yet. I think that Feng Ming seems to be a smart man." There are no flaws in what they said, but it’s not certain that it’s a trick sent by Sheng Yue.”

"So I plan to send Feng Ming back to Sheng Yue as an undercover agent." Gu Ling lay down and held Su Liang's hand against his face, "What do you think?"

Su Liang raised his eyebrows, "It's a good idea. In the end, we can't say who is our biggest threat, Mo Yan or Sheng Yue. In that case, I'll have a good talk with him tomorrow."
