He Is only Suitable for Explosion
Feng Ming and Zhu Zan stayed in the Su Mansion for two days.
Qi Yan took them to get familiar with various places and the people in the mansion. In their opinion, considering the status of Gu Ling and Su Liang, there were almost no servants in the mansion. It was incredible that an elder in the tiny place of Xingluo Island had several servants to serve him. The servants on Xingluo Island were all abducted from outside, and their status on the island was no different from that of slaves. They also saw Gu Ling and Su Liang cooking in the kitchen, and Gu Ling teaching two little apprentices martial arts.
During this period, the two also learned something that shocked them speechless: Su Liang was actually the granddaughter of Mo Yan, the owner of Xingluo Island, and she was his own daughter!
And they thought Mo Yan had no relatives, so Su Liang was Mo Yan's only relative and descendant in the world!
It was Su Liang who told them. She said that He Wei had discovered this matter a long time ago and deliberately concealed it from Mo Yan. Sheng Yue had returned earlier, and if nothing unexpected happened, he had already informed Mo Yan of this matter at this time.
At that time, Feng Ming said, "The He family is finished."
Su Liang smiled, "I hope so."
Two days later, Su Liang met Feng Ming alone.
Feng Ming knew that he should leave.
"When you go back, tell Mo Yan and Sheng Yue that you have been looking for people all the way to the north, but have never found any news, and you have also been sick, which has delayed time. Zhu Zan separated from you during this period and decided not to return to the island." Su Liang said, "This kind of thing doesn't need to be made too complicated, it will make people suspicious."
Feng Ming nodded seriously, "I understand."
"I believe that with your mind, there will be no problem." Su Liang smiled, "However, if Mo Yan or Sheng Yue suspects you and they want to kill you, in order to save your life, you can tell them that you have pledged allegiance to me. I believe this is valuable to them."
Feng Ming's expression was moved, "Thank you, master! I will be extremely careful and live up to your instructions!" He knew that once he revealed that he was Su Liang's subordinate, he would be used as a hostage to threaten Su Liang. Su Liang took the initiative to tell him that saving his life was the most important thing, which meant that he would find a way to save him in that situation. So far, he has not done anything serious for Su Liang, but he already feels cared for and concerned. He has communicated with Qi Yan a lot in the past two days. He knows that the Qi brothers have followed Su Liang. In Qi Yan's words, if you work hard, there will be unexpected surprises.
Including Su Liang did not force Zhu Zan to go back, nor did she drive him away, but kept him in the mansion, which shows her attitude of accepting defectors.
"I believe you." Su Liang said, "If you return to the island and successfully pass the test, you will continue to follow Sheng Yue. You don't need to investigate specifically. Any suspicious point may be discovered by him. You just need to watch what he does. We will contact you later if there is a chance."
"Yes." Feng Ming nodded. He knew that his chess piece was now a spare piece. What use it would have in the future depended on how the situation developed, which required him to have a strong ability to respond. He had confidence in himself, but not much. Su Liang's affirmation and trust in him encouraged him. For the first time, he really felt that he could do great things.
That day, Feng Ming said goodbye to Su Liang and Zhu Zan, secretly left the Su Mansion, headed south as fast as possible, and set out on the road back to Xingluo Island. Su Liang gave him some self-defense medicine, but told him to throw away all the unused medicine before going to the island, and not to bring anything suspicious back.
The weather was very good that day, and Yan Shiba was helped out by Su Liang to bask in the sun.
The snow house outside Yuanming Pavilion began to melt slowly. In order to prevent snow blocks from falling and hitting people, Gu Ling decided to dismantle the snow house.
The children were also very interested in this job. Under the leadership of Gu Ling, they moved the knocked-down snow blocks to one place.
Yan Shiba waved hard at Gu Xiaonuan on Gu Ling's back, but Gu Xiaonuan was stretching out her little hand to touch the snow house and did not notice it.
Yan Shiba sat down in the pavilion, took the hand warmer handed by Su Liang, and threw it on the table, "It's not that cold, do you think I'm a weak woman?"
Su Liang shook his head, "If I don't care about you, you will scold me for being heartless, but it's still wrong to care about you? Why don't you go to heaven?"
Yan Shiba was happy when he heard it, "Hehe, I want to go to heaven, but I can't! If I can really go to heaven one day, sister will definitely take you to fly with me!"
Speaking of this, Yan Shiba asked Feng Ming. She hated Sheng Yue, who had imprisoned her for a long time and created a substitute for her, so she has always been very concerned about the progress of dealing with Xingluo Island. Wen Ran was almost killed by the people of Xingluo Island together with Wen Ming, so she had the same attitude as Yan Shiba in this regard, and she would tell Yan Shiba the news she learned in time.
"Ghost girl, sister doesn't disbelieve your vision of people. For example, you thought I could still be saved at the beginning, and this vision is quite good." Yan Shiba said seriously.
Su Liang rolled her eyes at her and let her experience it herself.
"But," Yan Shiba frowned, "have you ever thought that even if Feng Ming was not sent by Sheng Yue, when he returned to Xingluo Island and met Sheng Yue again, he would become Sheng Yue's man and help him deceive you? The information he provided cannot be trusted!"
Su Liang nodded, "You are much more stable now than before. We have considered what you said, but Feng Ming is a smart man. He knows that there will be no good results if he associates with Sheng Yue, so he will make a smart choice."
Yan Shiba snorted, "So sister Liang, you believe in human nature."
Su Liang nodded, "Otherwise, I would have chopped you off long ago."
Yan Shiba punched Su Liang, "Thank you!"
Ji Xiaoshu flew over the lake and landed steadily outside the pavilion. He rushed in and put the cloth-wrapped thing in his hand on the table. It was two sweet potatoes with charred skin, still emitting sweet hot steam.
Gu Ling baked them and took them out when he thought they were almost cooked.
"Master's wife, Aunt Yan, eat them while they are hot! I will go back and grab Master's!" Ji Xiaoshu took out two wooden spoons for them, then flew back along the original route with a smile.
After cracking the crispy skin, the sweet potato split into two halves, revealing the soft and sticky heart inside.
Yan Shiba imitated Su Liang, scooped a little with a wooden spoon and put it into his mouth, nodding his head, "Delicious."
After finishing his own, Yan Shiba ate half of Su Liang's, sighing comfortably, "You know how to enjoy." Then he mentioned Cheng Yun again, "I wonder if Xiao Yun has started eating meat. If he has eaten meat, he shouldn't reject me, right?"
"Don't dream in broad daylight." Su Liang has been pouring cold water on Yan Shiba on this matter, because she thinks Yan Shiba and Cheng Yun are not suitable and there is no chance. It's not that she intends to stop Yan Shiba from pursuing Cheng Yun, but she is mainly worried that Yan Shiba will not be able to accept the rejection and do something he shouldn't do.
"Hmph! Let's wait and see!" In fact, Yan Shiba has been subtly influenced by Su Liang's attitude. Although he still often mentions Cheng Yun, he is not as confident as at the beginning. This is a good thing. After all, there is no fate. You can pursue him, but you have to accept the result that Cheng Yun doesn't like her.
...
A few days later, Bai Yang and Ji Yuexuan officially got married under Ji Yuebai's arrangement. The fact that the former Yan Kingdom princess and Gan Kingdom concubine are now married again has also caused a lot of discussion in the capital. After all, in the eyes of the world, Ji Yuexuan is the only woman of the current emperor Duanmu Chen.
Duanmu Chen did not announce to the world that he and Ji Yuexuan had never been husband and wife. He has done his best for Ji Yuexuan and Bai Yang. Some things are obvious to everyone, and those who want to gossip will only make up new rumors after you explain. As for the inevitable rumors, they have no effect on Duanmu Chen in the palace. If they have an impact on Bai Yang and Ji Yuexuan, let them digest it themselves.
Su Liang is still working with his two masters to study the improvement of the truth serum, mainly to avoid the point that people will die soon after taking it, but the three of them have fallen into a bottleneck and have not made any new breakthroughs.
As for who will go to the sea meeting with Mo Yan on the first day of March and what to do with the child, which Su Liang and Gu Ling had discussed before, it has not been decided yet. There is still some time. If nothing else happens, it will be in time for the appointment in early February.
By the end of the first month of the lunar year, Yan Shiba was able to move freely and did not need to be taken care of by others. Su Liang said that she could slowly start exercising, which would be good for her physical recovery. She would do morning exercises with the children every day, and play with Gu Xiaonuan whenever she had the chance, saying that this was a good exercise.
Yan Shiba's temperament was obviously much gentler than before, but her personality still had the shadow of the original. She was carefree and unrestrained, and she soon played with the children.
Especially Ji Xiaoshu, knowing that Yan Shiba was originally a killer leader, was quite interested in her and liked to listen to Yan Shiba talk about her "glorious history".
Yan Shiba liked children, and she was still sensible in front of the children. She did not say anything too bloody and violent, for fear of bad influence and bringing bad influence to the children. Because now she recalled the past, she also felt that she had done a lot of wrong things. Sometimes, it's not that she didn't have a choice, but before she met Su Liang, no one had ever taught her what was right and what was good.
Yan Shiba still mentioned Cheng Yun all the time. Even the children in the mansion knew that Yan Shiba admired Cheng Yun.
It was a nice day. Yan Shiba was fighting with Ji Xiaoshu and Zheng'er, one on two.
The two little guys were Gu Ling's apprentices. They were both talented and now practiced Hanyue swordsmanship. Yan Shiba was not as strong as before, and he was holding back. Later, he was distracted by Gu Xiaonuan's laughter, and was stabbed in the leg by Ji Xiaoshu with a small wooden sword.
"Ah, I'm dead!" Yan Shiba threw away the wooden sword in his hand, his body softened, and he fell to the ground and closed his eyes.
Ji Xiaoshu rushed over and shook Yan Shiba's head, "Aunt Yan, don't die! My master made sweet and sour pork ribs at noon! You can't eat it if you die!"
Yan Shiba laughed without opening his eyes, "Pork ribs are good, I like them, so let's eat sweet and sour pork ribs alive! Cough cough cough... Xiaoshu, don't shake, I'm going to be shaken silly."
Zheng'er held his forehead: So childish!
Yan Shiba was pulled up from the ground by Ji Xiaoshu, and saw Qi Yan appear not far away, with a thin young man beside him.
"Uncle Qi!" Zheng'er greeted Qi Yan.
Ji Xiaoshu looked at the person beside Qi Yan, and then pulled Yan Shiba, "Aunt Yan, look who that is?"
Yan Shiba took a look and shook his head, "I don't know him."
"It seems that it's not true love." Ji Xiaoshu smiled, "No matter what my master becomes, my master's wife will definitely recognize him!"
Yan Shiba's face froze, and then he looked at the young man standing next to Qi Yan, waving and smiling at the two children here, and couldn't help but widen his eyes, "Brother Xiaoyun?"
Zheng'er had already run over, calling Uncle Chengyun.
It's no wonder that Yan Shiba didn't recognize him. Chengyun was wearing a wig and had changed his appearance. At first glance, he had no similarities with the beautiful little monk in Yan Shiba's memory. But if you look closely, his figure and temperament are still the same as before.
"Brother Xiaoyun!" Yan Shiba also rushed over.
Chengyun heard a strange yet familiar voice and recognized it as Yan Shiba. He frowned slightly. In view of Yan Shiba's blatant "harassment" in the past, he wanted to go to Yuanming Pavilion immediately to find Su Liang to protect him, but when he saw Zheng'er running over, he felt that it was not a good idea to leave.
Qi Yan had already gone in to report to Su Liang.
When Yan Shiba rushed to Chengyun and was about to get close to stare at him, Su Liang just came out of Yuanming Pavilion and grabbed her.
"Brother Xiaoyun, you won't forget me, right? You saved my life!" Yan Shiba smiled happily at Chengyun. After all, this was the person she had been thinking about for several years. She was very excited to meet him again after surviving a disaster.
Chengyun leaned over and hugged Zheng'er. He didn't look at Yan Shiba, but responded to her words out of politeness, "Remember, Yan Shi...Miss, there is no need to mention the life-saving grace. It was Su Liang who really saved you."
"You can talk later." Su Liang said, "Chengyun came back for business."
Chengyun hurriedly followed Su Liang into Yuanming Pavilion, and Yan Shiba followed in, "My body has almost recovered. I'll listen to the business if I can help."
Just then, Wen Ran came to deliver medicine to Yan Shiba. When he saw Chengyun taking off his wig, he was a little surprised and greeted him with a smile, "You're back."
Chengyun nodded, "Yes."
"Sister Yan, drink the medicine." Wen Ran put the steaming medicine in front of Yan Shiba.
Yan Shiba hugged Wen Ran and asked her to sit next to him, "Xiao Ranran, please sit down. I'll wait until it cools down before drinking. Xiaoyun wants to talk about business."
Chengyun tried his best to ignore Yan Shiba's burning eyes and only looked at Su Liang when he spoke.
Su Liang was a little surprised, "Is it a gift from Mo Yan?"
"There is a human head. Old Qiu said it was He Wei." Cheng Yun said, "The others are some ancient books and treasures."
Qi Yan had already brought people to move the boxes.
Cheng Yun quickly pointed to the box with the human head, "Don't open it in front of the children."
Su Liang checked the box of books and the box of treasures. The books were useful, but the treasures were nothing special. They didn't lack them, and the children had seen a lot of them.
"This is a letter from Mo Yan to you." Cheng Yun took out the letter and handed it to Su Liang, still sealed.
Su Liang took it, sat down and opened it.
Mo Yan said in the letter that when his daughter Mo Guixin left Xingluo Island and wanted to live outside, he didn't want to force her, so he let her go, not that he didn't care about her. He was deceived by He Wei and thought that Mo Guixin had died of illness and didn't leave any children, so he didn't know the existence of Su Liang, his granddaughter, for so many years.
In the letter, Mo Yan sincerely apologized to Su Liang, saying that if he had known her earlier, he would have taken good care of her and protected her, and would not let her suffer any grievances, let alone have any conflicts with her.
He Wei has been beheaded, and the He family has been executed. He hopes that Su Liang can forgive Mo Yan for the mistakes he made because of misunderstandings before, and the two of them can sit together and talk about the future.
"About the matter between Gu Ling and me, we can discuss it. I believe that with the strength of our grandparents, no matter what we want to do, we will succeed. I look forward to meeting you on the first day of March. Grandpa can't wait to hug Xiao Nuannuan. She must be the cutest child in the world."
After Su Liang finished reading the letter, Gu Ling heard the news and came over and took the letter.
After reading it quickly, Gu Ling's eyes were slightly cold, "Hug Nuannuan? Dreaming. He is only suitable for explosions."
