Chapter 176 176. The price of lying

"Have you seen Xiao Mulian? Do you know what she looks like?" Su Liang asked Ning Jing.

Ning Jing nodded, "I've seen it once."

"Okay." Su Liang was thoughtful, "I have a plan, let's see if it works."

……

The Second Prince's Mansion.

Duanmu Ao got angry early in the morning and dropped two expensive vases, and the servants were silent like cicadas.

The woman in the backyard of the mansion has not had sex with Duanmu Ao for more than a month, because he is still injured and the imperial doctor said that he must abstinence for the time being.

The second concubine Mei Shi came over, waited on Xiaoyi, and asked Duanmu Ao if he had a nightmare.

Hearing this, Duanmu Ao became even more angry, "Get out! Get out!"

After Mrs. Mei and his servants left, Duanmu Ao sat there with a gloomy expression, clenched his fists, and his veins bulged.

Last night he actually saw Xiao Mulian, who had died long ago, standing by the bed. At that time, he was frightened out of his wits, blinked, but disappeared again.It's not a nightmare, it really looks like Xiao Mulian's ghost came to him...

After a while, Mrs. Mei came over again, seeing that Duanmu Ao had calmed down a lot, she said that there was a new play in Changchun Garden, and asked him if he wanted to watch it together.

Duanmu Ao doesn't like watching operas, but he likes female actors with soft figures.

In the backyard of the Second Prince's Mansion, there was a concubine who was originally Hua Dan of Changchun Garden.

But when he heard the words "Changchun Garden", Duanmu Ao's expression darkened, "I won't go!"

Mei Shi took the servants to go.

Unexpectedly, not long after, the servant girl came to deliver tea, saying that the second concubine came back from Changchun Garden.

"Last night, all the trees in the Changchun Garden fell down for some reason. It was very strange. Some people said it was haunted, and the garden was closed." said the servant girl.

Duanmu Ao's face froze, "The sky is bright and the sun is bright, what the hell is there?"

The servant girl shrank her neck, "Damn it, servant girl!"

But not long after, Duanmu Ao sent his followers to Changchun Garden to find out what was going on.

The entourage came back and said, "There is no trace of intrusion, not even footprints, and those trees have not been cut down. Dozens of trees all fell overnight, and they fell in the same direction. It is really weird." .”

The boss of Changchun Garden wanted to block the news, but he couldn't cover up what happened.

Duanmu Ao's face became more and more ugly, "Which direction are those trees facing?"

The entourage respectfully said, "I went in to have a look, those trees are all facing the southwest direction."

Duanmu Ao's eyes narrowed.The Crown Prince's Mansion and the Second Prince's Mansion are next to each other, just to the southwest of Changchun Garden...

"Someone must be playing tricks!" Duanmu Ao snorted coldly, but his unrelenting fists showed that he was not calm.

In the afternoon, Crown Prince Duanmu Sheng came to the Second Prince's Mansion.

When the two brothers met, their eye circles were all black.

After the screen retreated, they sat facing each other with serious expressions.

"What do you want me to do?" Duanmu Ao asked.

Duanmu Cheng sighed, "How is your health?"

Duanmu Ao was instantly annoyed, "You don't need to worry about the prince! My health is very good!"

Duanmu Cheng smiled wryly, "Are you still blaming me?"

Duanmu Ao snorted coldly, "What are you to blame?"

Duanmu Sheng shook his head, hesitant to speak, but he didn't bring up that embarrassing thing again.

In the end, the two broke up unhappy, and they said something, but it seemed that they didn't say anything.

……

Su House.

Facing the bronze mirror, Nian Jincheng made a disguise for himself, and when he was done, he turned to Yan Yu, "Does it look like it?"

Yan Yu was a little confused, and asked, "Who do you look like?"

"Second prince." Nian Jincheng looked at the bronze mirror again, "I forgot, you haven't seen it before."

"The second prince looks like this? It's so ugly." Yan Yu snorted softly.She didn't know Duanmu Ao, but she knew that the death of Su Liang's family had something to do with the Second Prince.Moreover, after Su Liang entered Beijing, Duanmu Ao made things difficult for him many times. He even hired murderers to assassinate Su Liang before, but he failed.

Nian Jincheng nodded, "It's really ugly."

"Okay?" Su Liang walked in, looked at Nian Jincheng's face, felt that it was not interesting, and asked him to repair some places.

Seeing that Su Liang was so serious, Yan Yu realized that Nian Jincheng didn't just find a familiar face to practice disguise, so he asked, "Should I ask him to pretend to be the second prince?"

"Yan Xiaoyu, you are so smart." Su Liang confirmed Yan Yu's guess.

Yan Yu frowned, "This...will be very dangerous, right?"

Nian Jincheng was stunned for a moment, then glanced at Yan Yu, the worry in her eyes was not fake, her heart was slightly warm, and she explained, "It's okay, I will be careful."

"You have to be careful, and learn how the second prince behaves, so as not to ruin Su Liang's business." Yan Yu looked serious.Although it is not clear what plan Su Liang has.

Nian Jincheng: ...That's the truth, but he thought that Yan Yu was just worried about his safety...

Su Liang showed a meaningful smile, "Don't be nervous, relax."

……

It was night, Duanmu Ao drank strong tea, lay there awake all the time, and arranged for the experts around him to protect him nearby.

After staying up until dawn, I didn't see Xiao Mulian again.

His eyes were red and bloodshot, he breathed a sigh of relief, he was evacuated, and fell asleep.

When Duanmu Ao woke up, his eyes were blood red, making his hair stand on end, and he was so frightened that he rolled off the bed!

I saw blood all over his bed curtain and quilt, it was shocking to see!

When the servants rushed in, they were all frightened to death.

It was confirmed that Duanmu Ao was not injured, and no one in the middle had seen anyone enter this room.

It's hell in daylight!

The prince came again in the afternoon.

"I suspect someone is playing tricks." Duanmu Cheng's eyes were red, but this time he cut straight to the point, "My room was broken into last night, and a lot of blood was splashed on the bed."

Duanmu Ao frowned fiercely, "Me too!"

Duanmu Sheng looked shocked, "I saw Xiao Mulian standing by the bed the night before! He disappeared in the blink of an eye!"

Duanmu Ao's face turned pale, and his voice was low, "I saw it too."

"There are also trees in the Changchun Garden..." Duanmu Sheng didn't finish his sentence, but they already understood it.

"Where are there any ghosts? If there really are, why didn't they come out earlier and come now?" Duanmu Ao said sharply.

Duanmu Sheng sighed deeply, "I think so too. I always suspect that someone is behind the scenes, but there is no evidence."

Duanmu Ao's eyes were dark and dark, "Su Liang! It's Su Liang! Who else can there be besides her? As I said earlier, you want to kill her quickly, but you just want me to be cautious! Now that she has become the champion of martial arts, father The emperor holds a lot of treasure, and it is not easy to touch her!"

Duan Mucheng's face was as dark as ink, "I spent a lot of money to hire the killer of Yanyun Building to get rid of Su Liang, but for some reason, there was no movement. Maybe she is stronger than what we see. Or maybe, there are some experts around her." Protection, even Yanyun Tower can't touch her."

"Damn it!" Duanmu Ao clenched his fist and slammed the table heavily, "She just came back to take revenge! The weird things happened in the past two days must be caused by her!"

"But as long as we can't catch her, we can't do anything." Duan Mucheng said with a gloomy face, "We must not let anything happen about Xiao Mulian."

Duanmu Ao snorted coldly, "I told you earlier, her amnesia is fake, she knows everything, if we let her publicize that incident..."

Duan Mucheng's face froze, "Impossible! Xiao Mulian died without any evidence, and no one would believe what she said! If she dares to spread rumors about such things, she just waits to lose her head! Father will never tolerate such slander Royalty!"

Duanmu Ao looked at Duanmu Sheng coldly, "Slander? If you didn't cuckold me, how could there be so many troubles? If it wasn't for my brother's sake, I would never have tolerated this!"

Duanmu Sheng had thought for a long time that Duanmu Ao might provoke him if he brought up the old matter again, and he was mentally prepared for this, but his face was still very embarrassed, "I have said it many times, it was Xiao Mulian who seduced me, I am a normal man, no Hold on to it, and then I did something I couldn't forgive you."

"Forget it, it's just a slut!" Duanmu Ao snorted coldly, "We have to think about how to get rid of Su Liang. If we drag it on, the night will be full of dreams, who knows what that crazy woman will do! "

Duanmu Cheng's eyes were deep, "I have a plan, how about using the fifth child. He's crazy for Su Liang, he can do anything."

……

Su Liang put the freshly baked biscuits on the plate, and when he turned around, he saw Ning Jing coming in.

"How?" Su Liang asked.

Ning Jing washed his hands, picked up a biscuit that was still warm, tasted it, and nodded, "It's delicious."

Su Liang raised his forehead, "I'm asking you, did you get anything out of monitoring Duanmu Ao?"

After Ning Jing finished eating a small biscuit, she told Duanmu Sheng and Duanmu Ao brothers' plan to use Duanmu Che to get rid of Su Liang.

"They guessed that I was playing tricks? No surprise." Su Liang snorted softly, "Duanmu Cheng has a bit of a brain. His plan is good, it suits my heart, and it will also give your brother a chance to liberate his nature."

……

In the dead of night, Nian Jincheng pulled his clothes and asked Ning Jing in a low voice, "Are you sure you want to do this? I'm not afraid that something will happen to me, I'm just afraid that something will happen."

Ning Jing looked indifferent, "This can't be done, what use are you for?"

Nian Jincheng took a deep breath.He is really not good at this kind of secret strategy, so he can only bite the bullet.

The two sneaked into the Second Prince's Mansion, and after half an hour, Ning Jing left with a sack on his shoulders.

The guard who finally drove the highly skilled assassin away realized that he might have been tricked into diverting the tiger away from the mountain. He asked outside the door, heard the voice of "Duanmu Ao", confirmed that he was fine, and felt relieved.

Nian Jincheng, who was pretending to be Duanmu Ao, sat on the side of the bed and let out a long sigh of relief, recalling Duanmu Ao's usual expression and manner, practicing silently.

……

Su House.

A lamp was lit tonight in a courtyard that was usually vacant.

Duanmu Ao wakes up faintly, the back of his neck hurts badly, his last memory is that a black shadow flashed by, and he passed out without seeing anything clearly.

Putting his hands on the ground, Duanmu Ao raised his head slowly, and saw a familiar face with a horrified expression, "You...are so bold! You want to die!"

Su Liang held a long whip and sat on a chair, looking at Duanmu Ao with a half-smile, "You and your brother tried very hard to kill me, but unfortunately, they all failed. You can guess, I invite you to come, Why? If you guess right, you will be rewarded."

Duanmu Ao's face was extremely ugly, "Su Liang, if you don't want to die, let me go immediately! Everyone in the capital knows that you and I have enmity, and so does the emperor father! If I disappear, you will be the first to suspect me!"

Su Liang nodded, "Indeed. That's why I don't dare to attack you easily. It's not easy to be a martial arts champion, and I don't want to cause trouble for my friends because of myself."

"Then you still dare to touch me? Don't die!" Duanmu Ao said sharply.

Su Liang smiled, "It's really troublesome for you to disappear, but who knows?"

Duanmu Ao widened his eyes, "What do you mean?"

"Without you, Qianguo still has the second prince." Su Liang sneered, "No one knows that you are missing, so how could I be suspected?"

"You...you find someone to replace me?!" Duanmu Ao's face turned pale.

"Hehe, your hidden illness is still not healed? How many days have you not allowed women to get close? It's so good, I don't have to worry about my brother who replaced you being touched by your woman." Su Liang chuckled, " I didn't think so long at the time, it can only be said to be a coincidence. It's wonderful, what do you think?"

Duanmu Ao was completely panicked, "The people who serve me, the Queen Mother, will definitely recognize me!"

"So confident?" Su Liang snorted softly, "But that's not important, it's not what you should care about now. Tell me, how did Xiao Mulian die? Who killed my family?"

Duanmu Ao's face turned green and pale, "Xiao Mulian was killed by your grandfather! Your family committed suicide in fear of crime!"

Su Liang shook his head lightly, stood up, the whip didn't hit Duanmu Ao, but wrapped around his neck, round and round, slowly tightened, watching Duanmu Ao's terrified expression and difficulty in breathing.

Su Liang looked calm, "How many people in my family were hanged to death, do you remember? Is this feeling comfortable? I have plenty of time, and I can play with you slowly, so that you can experience my family's feelings before they die. , not one less."

When Duanmu Ao was about to be strangled to death, Su Liang let go of his hand suddenly.

He lay on the ground, clutching his neck, coughing continuously.

Su Liang stood not far away, looking at him coldly, "The Xiao Mulian you and Duan Mucheng saw in the middle of the night was pretended by me, I asked someone to push down the tree in Changchun Garden, and I poured the blood on your bed , the purpose is to scare the snake, so that you can bring up the old matter again. I heard all the secret talks between your brothers today."

Duanmu Ao looked at Su Liang's eyes, as if seeing a ghost, "You... How high is your martial arts?"

He and Duanmu Sheng were protected by experts, but they couldn't stop Su Liang at all!

Su Liang snorted softly, "Guess?"

Actually it wasn't her, it was Ning Jing.But Duanmu Ao didn't need to know.

"You heard it all..." Duanmu Ao's face was extremely ugly.

"I invited you here because I want to hear something you didn't say." Su Liang picked up the whip and sat back down again, "Xiao Mulian had an affair with Duanmu Sheng in Changchun Garden, and she gave you a cuckold, and she was pregnant with Duanmu Sheng." How do you know, child?"

Duanmu Ao remained silent.

Su Liang stood up holding the whip, "Then come again."

Duan Muao shuddered, "The nanny in the mansion found out that Xiao Mulian's menstruation was delayed, and told me that I was going to be a father. But I didn't touch her at all during that time! She always pushed back and said that she was not feeling well. I'm going to find another woman!"

Su Liang remained expressionless, "Go on."

"I took Xiao Mulian back, but she didn't admit it at first, but later she said she had Duanmucheng's seed in her stomach!" Duanmu Ao gritted his teeth and said, "I confronted Duanmucheng, but he could only admit it, saying that Xiao Mulian seduced him That bitch did such a thing, of course she can’t live, it was Duanmu Sheng who said he wanted to get rid of her, as if nothing had happened! It was also Duanmu Sheng’s idea to ask your grandfather to come and treat Xiao Mulian, he said Xiao Mulian had a tryst with him in Changchun Garden the day before, and your grandfather heard about the child! I personally killed Xiao Mulian, but Duanmu Sheng arranged the other things! The scandal he did was covered up by all means. ! If you want revenge, you should also find him, why are you looking for me?"

"It sounds like you are really innocent." Su Liang said coldly, "But if I remember correctly, when you had a secret meeting with Duanmu Sheng today, he once said that you were negligent and didn't kill me. Otherwise, nothing will happen later. It sounds like you were responsible for the death of my family. "

Duanmu Ao's face froze, "I didn't do it! I did know about it, but I didn't stop it. Even if I stopped it, it would be useless! You heard it wrong, Duanmu Sheng was talking about his negligence!"

"I don't have deaf ears." Su Liang said, the whip flew out and wrapped around Duanmu Ao's neck again, tightening it tightly, his eyes were cold, "Don't think that you can get rid of it by pushing everything on Duanmucheng's head. Myself. When I arrested you, I didn't intend to let you leave alive. If you feel guilty, you bite your tongue and kill yourself. If you are afraid of death, just tell the truth. The price of lying is that life is worse than death!"
