Chapter 187. Chapter 187.
The Fourth Prince's Mansion.

Seeing Duanmu Chen sitting in meditation for a long time, Changan broke the silence, "Master, are you alright?"

Duanmu Chen shook his head, "It's okay." He said looking out at the sky through the window, it has been gloomy since morning till now, as if it was going to rain, but it didn't.

The air was a bit stuffy, Duanmuchen stood up, took a long breath of relief, walked to the window, turned his back to Chang'an, "Is there any movement in the palace?"

Chang An shook his head, "There is no news from the imperial concubine. There will be no news when the first prince enters the palace, and the second prince's residence is preparing for the funeral."

"At this moment, Su Liang and Xing Ji should have already set off. I knew she would not come to say goodbye to me." Duanmu Chen snorted softly.

Chang An was stunned for a moment, "The time is urgent, and at this time, it is inconvenient for Miss Su to come here during the day."

"I know." Duanmuchen nodded, "Even if she can come, she won't come, it's okay. When I made friends with her in Bei'an County, I didn't expect that things would be like this later."

Chang'an was a little elusive as to what Duanmu Chen was thinking, when he saw the corners of his lips curled up, he laughed, "Everything is going so smoothly!"

Chang'an also laughed, "Yes! Maybe in these two days, the emperor will issue a decree to confer the name of the master as the crown prince."

Duanmu Chen smiled without saying a word, obviously he knew it well.

Having abolished two direct princes at once, it was his turn.

"Marquis Zhongxin and General Lin, Miss Su, going north will definitely not be smooth. Now, even if they act secretly, they can't escape the eyes of the Wan family." Changan sighed slightly.

Duanmu Chen shook his head, "I believe in Su Liang. Xing Ji is not a thing in the pool. It's not just me who is betting, but the father is also betting. Abolishing the Wan family is a matter of time. The later the harder, the harder it is to delay. gone."

"The subordinates also think that Miss Su will be able to accomplish things if she goes." Chang An said, "But will the eldest prince really be executed by the emperor?"

Duanmuchen snorted softly, "How is that possible? After all, he is the father's own son, and he will not take the initiative to kill, and he has to worry about the queen mother. At this juncture, if Duanmucheng really died, Wan's family might jump over the wall in a hurry. As long as father takes back the military power in the hands of the Wan family, Duanmu Sheng will be completely abolished, and there will be no troubles if he is alive."

"By the way, the fifth prince left the palace and returned to his residence today." Chang An suddenly mentioned.

After a brief surprise, Duanmu Chen sneered three times, "Speaking of the relationship with Su Liang, Duanmu Che should have been closer than me. Back then, I was worried that Su Liang would be drawn over by him. As long as he is willing to have a good relationship with Su Liang When we get along with Liang, Su Liang thinks of saving his life, so he will definitely turn to him. I didn't expect Duanmuche to be so stupid that he forcibly made enemies with Su Liang."

"The subordinates also don't understand what the fifth prince is thinking." Chang An said.

Duanmuchen snorted coldly, "He? He's just arrogant because he is favored. Since he was a child, his father will satisfy him with everything he wants. I didn't see it before. It was because he was always sick and unable to make trouble. Su Liang cured him. , and he started to get restless."

Chang An clasped his hands together and prayed sincerely, "I hope everything goes well in the future, so that the master can sit on the crown prince as soon as possible."

……

Su Liang and his party have just set off.

Qi Jiang went first to arrange the next board and lodging, and had not yet met with Qi Jun, who was pretending to be peaceful.Xing Ji only glanced at it and didn't pay much attention.

"Did Brother Lin go to say goodbye to Yujin?" Su Liang asked.

Lin Bojun nodded, "Go." After saying that, he sighed deeply.

Both the Lin family and the Qin family were very worried about Lin Bojun's trip, but he had no choice but to go.

Qin Yujin gave Lin Bojun the jade pendant she wore next to her body, and made him swear that she would come back safely.

Thinking of it, Lin Bojun felt the warmth of the jade pendant on his chest, but his heart was sour.

Looking back at the dark and cloudy capital city, Lin Bojun withdrew his gaze and looked to the north, "I will definitely come back soon to marry her!"

Su Liang rode up to catch up with Xing Ji, "Uncle Xing, I have an idea."

Xing Ji nodded, "Say it!"

"The Wan family will definitely send someone to notify General Wan Shan in northern Xinjiang as soon as possible about our going north. The few of us are going on the road together, and we will inevitably encounter obstacles in the future. Don't get there, something unexpected has already happened." Su Liang said sternly.

"What do you think?" Xing Ji asked.

Su Liang said bluntly, "It's better for us to divide our troops into two groups. We act secretly along the way and rush to the north to stabilize the situation."

"I'll go!" Lin Bojun said immediately.

Xing Ji frowned, pulled the rein of the horse, slowed down, looked at Su Liang and asked, "Are you going to go first?"

Su Liang nodded, "Yeah. Since I have accepted such an important task, I have to find a way to complete it. If it fails, it's not just a matter of credit or guilt, I'm afraid the world will change."

She spoke bluntly, but it was the truth.

Xing Ji pondered for a moment, "I thought about it too, but there is no suitable person to do it. If that's the case, I'll go first, and you and Bo Jun will rush over later, how about it?"

"I know it's okay for Uncle Xing to go, but leave it to me." Su Liang insisted.

Lin Bojun sighed, "I also promised father and younger sister to take good care of Xiaoliang, why do I have to let you rush to the front again."

Su Liang snorted, "If you don't agree, I have to suspect that you discriminate against me as a woman."

Both Xing Ji and Lin Bojun couldn't laugh or cry.Of course they believed in Su Liang's strength and intelligence, but they really didn't think about letting her take the lead.

"You yourself..." Xing Ji relaxed, but still hesitated.

"Qi Jun" voice came from behind Su Liang, "I'm human too."

"Xiao Qi will go with me." Su Liang said with a smile, "We have known each other for a long time, and there is a guide on the way. When I come back, I have to treat Mr. Xing to drink, and thank him for being so considerate and sending me a helper."

After Su Liang said that, Xing Ji nodded, "So, just do as you said. You take the imperial decree monk Fang's sword, and take it out if it is useful."

Su Liang refused, "It's too heavy, it will slow down my traveling speed."

Xing Ji: ... Is such a strange reason okay?
"I will go alone. If there is no accident, I will not show up. Even if there is an accident, I can't do anything clearly and leave a clue. So it is really useless. You should pay attention to safety and catch up as soon as possible. When the time comes, you will be clear Put pressure on me, and I will secretly assist." Su Liang said.

Xing Ji didn't insist anymore.

Now that it is settled, we will be separated at the intersection ahead.

"Ah Jun, you must take good care of Su Liang!" Xing Ji looked serious.

Ning Jing nodded, "Master Hou, don't worry, your subordinates will definitely protect Miss Su with their lives!"

This is what the real Qi Jun would say, and Su Liang feels weird listening to it.It's not that he thinks that Ning Jing won't try his best to protect her, it's just that he is as strong as Ning Jing, and there is no need to go all out.

"Don't be rash, nothing will happen." Xing Ji said "Qi Jun".

Lin Bojun told Su Liang repeatedly, don't try too hard, if you are in trouble, take care of yourself first.

"Actually, you are the ones who are in danger." Su Liang was very calm, "I hid, but they couldn't find them, so what are you afraid of? Let's go, see you in Xuanbei City!"

After saying that, Su Liang took "Qi Jun" and turned into a remote fork road, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Xing Ji, Lin Bojun and his party quickly continued on the road.

Seeing Qi Jiang again, he didn't see his son coming, he was a little strange, when he heard Xing Ji talk about what happened, he sighed and said, "That's fine." There was inevitably worry about his son in his words, but he didn't say anything else.

……

Su Liang's proposal to act alone was an agreement she and Ning Ping reached soon after they left home.

In public and private, this is the safest.

If they really go together with Xingji Qijiang, it's hard to guarantee that Qijiang won't find any loopholes in Tranquility.After all, he is Qi Jun's biological father, and Ning Jing's understanding of Qi Jun is limited, maybe some of Qi Jun's habits or actions that they have never seen before will expose him.

It's not a big deal to just expose the disguise and change of identity.

But in case of trouble, if Ning Jing shows off his strong martial arts, people will inevitably doubt his identity and the purpose of hiding his strength.

Lin Bojun knew it.But the extremely shrewd Xing Ji discovered that Ning Jing was hiding something, if he guessed that he was a fake Ning Jing, he might not link him with Gu Ling.

Not great, and unnecessary.

Ning Jing also didn't want to pretend to be another person all the time, so she couldn't talk to Su Liang normally.

With the breeze blowing, Su Liang galloped his horse and said with a smile, "I have been to the capital for a few months, but when I come out today, I suddenly feel like I have regained my freedom."

"Then don't go back." Ning Jing said.

"No. I want to drink a few glasses of wedding wine. Duanmu Sheng is not dead, so there is no end." Su Liang said.

Exterminating the Wan clan is also necessary to completely destroy Duanmu Sheng.

The weather has gotten warmer, and Ning Jing, who has been to Xuanbei City, said that they changed horses halfway, traveling day and night, and it would take eight days at the fastest to arrive.

"You lead the way, go at the fastest speed. Find time to rest during the day and replenish dry food." Su Liang said.

To rest at night, you have to find a shelter from the wind and keep warm, which is not so convenient.

Ning Jing has no objection.

Their personalities are either do not do it, or do it and try to do it well.

Work harder first, the sooner you arrive at Xuanbei City, the easier it will be to control the situation later.

Therefore, there is no time to read or learn anything in the future.

……

Su Mansion in the capital city.

Qi Jun pretended to be Ning Jing, and Nian Jincheng didn't plan to show up for fear of being discovered.

Qi Jun was also a little embarrassed.He thought Yan Yu was the only one besides him in the mansion, and he had to ask Yan Yu to cook for him next, and he always felt awkward everywhere.

Yan Yu also noticed it. During dinner, he told Qi Jun that she was leaving tomorrow.

Qi Jun breathed a sigh of relief, "Is Miss Yan going home?"

Yan Yu nodded, "It's time to go back. It was originally planned like this, but I didn't expect Su Liang to leave Beijing first."

"Do you need to arrange someone to escort you?" Qi Jun asked seriously.

Yan Yu smiled and shook his head, "No, someone is protecting me."

"That's good." Qi Jun nodded.

"I went to bid farewell to Sister Wan today, and I told her that when you are at home alone, the three meals will be delivered on time by the special person from the restaurant. After you finish eating, put the dishes away, and someone will let them come for the next meal. Just take it away." Yan Yu said.

Qi Jun quickly said no, he would find a way to solve it himself.

Yan Yu said, this is the way Ning Jing would choose when he was alone at home.

Qi Jun froze for a moment, then accepted, and thanked Yan Yu.

"No. Don't be polite when it comes to spending money. The last thing we need is money." Yan Yu looked serious.

Qi Jun raised his forehead, that's true.Patriarch Ning, Patriarch Yan, Miss Wan...

Yan Yu taught Qi Jun the disguise technique, and Qi Jun was quick-witted, and he learned it in a short time. He removed the disguise on his face and did it again for Yan Yu to watch.

"No problem." Yan Yu said, "Anyway, Big Brother Ning doesn't like to go out or talk. Apart from going to the household department, you can stay at home if you have nothing to do, and do whatever you want."

Qi Jun thought about it, indeed.Although Su Liang doesn't socialize much, she has frequent contacts with friends, and Ning Jing is like her shadow.If Su Liang was not at home, according to common sense, Ning Jing would not go out unless he could.

If you have less contact with people, you don't have to worry too much about showing your flaws.

After Yan Yu explained everything he could think of, he went back to his room to rest.

Early the next morning, Zhou Yuan drove a carriage to pick up Yan Yu, and she left the Su residence.Nian Jincheng secretly followed her.

Qi Jun pretended to be safe and went to the Ministry of Households to go to court.There are not many jobs in Ping Jing's position, and his colleagues are very polite. Qi Jun was really nervous at first, but then he relaxed.

As the day was about to pass, Qi Jun felt that this feeling was not bad, and it was also a rather miraculous experience. When he told his master and his brother afterwards, they would definitely envy him.

Qi Jun even imagined how he would behave when he met Xing Yusheng and Qi Yan next.

Thinking that Ning Jing was never polite when talking to Xing Yusheng, Qi Jun rehearsed in Ning Jing's room how to smack his master coldly...

……

There was a big incident in the capital, but nothing went wrong.

Duanmu Sheng was put under house arrest in the palace.The fact that he hired a murderer to kill Duanmu Ao has been widely known.

Duanmu Yi declared in the court hall that he would execute Duanmu Sheng, but was persuaded by all the courtiers.

For a time, an undercurrent surged in the capital.

As for Duanmuyi's arrangement for Xing Ji and Lin Bojun to go north to Suliang, many people knew about it, but Duanmuyi didn't mention it on the surface, and naturally he didn't say anything about Wan's.

Many people thought that now that Duanmu Sheng was abolished and Duanmu Ao was dead, Duanmu Chen would soon be crowned prince.

But five days had passed since Duanmu Ao's death, Duanmu Yi still didn't propose to canonize the new prince.

Duanmu Chen was not in a hurry, knowing that Duanmu Yi was maintaining stability, which made some people in the Wan family think that Duanmu Sheng still had a chance to prevent them from taking risks and doing something.

Duanmuchen didn't want to be a target at this time, but he also knew that even if he didn't get the crown prince, the Wan clan would spare no effort to get rid of him, so he was always careful and extremely cautious.

……

Su Liang and Ning Jing traveled day and night for five days, passing by Pingbei City where they lived for a while without stopping.

The two of them seldom talked, even when they talked, outsiders would not be able to understand them standing by with their ears pricked up, because Ning Jing was practicing the English that Su Liang taught earlier.

Su Liang actually thought that it would be useless for Ning Jing to learn it, but Ning Jing was very interested in a new language and said that if it was inconvenient to speak, it could be used as a code word between the two of them.

Of course Su Liang didn't care.If he is willing to work hard to learn, she will teach.

In the evening of that day, the two returned to their "hometown" Bei'an County.

Looking at the familiar buildings and the pedestrians hurrying to and fro in the twilight, Su Liang was quite emotional for a moment, "I really want to go home and have a look, I wonder if Xiaohu and Zhuzi have forgotten me."

"No." Ning Jing said.

"Forget it, finish the work quickly, and pass by here when I return to the capital, and go home for a few days." Su Liang said.

When he arrived in Feiyan Town, Su Liang saw his old friend Hu Er from a distance. He looked good, but now that he was doing serious business, his temperament was different.

Su Liang wore men's clothing, and she and Ning Jing both changed their appearances. They looked ordinary and unobtrusive.

The two galloped past on horseback, Hu Er raised his head when he heard the sound, and saw the familiar back, his expression was happy, before he could speak, he saw them go away.

Seeing Hu Er stretching his neck to look into the distance, Xiao Liu asked him, "What is Er Ye looking at?"

Hu Er said cheerfully, "A pair of lovebirds flew over just now."
