Chapter 233 233. My Young Master (Part [-])
When Duanmu Chen saw Duanmu Yi again, he was still in the imperial study.He only felt that Duanmu Yi seemed to be in a good mood and pretended to be calm.

This made Duanmuchen even more convinced that what happened was very important.

But Duanmu Chen didn't take the initiative to ask, because he knew that if Duanmu Yi wanted to share with him, he would tell. If he didn't, it would be futile for him to ask, and it would make Duanmu Yi unhappy.

"By the way, what did you say you wanted to tell me earlier?" Duanmu Yi asked Duanmu Chen.

Duanmu Chen made up his mind and said, "Father and emperor had previously selected a concubine for the minister, but it was interrupted for some reason. I don't know if this matter will continue? If the concubine wants to have a grandson, there must be a safe person in the minister's mansion to take care of it."

"About choosing a concubine?" Duanmuyi chuckled, "If you don't mention it, I will also look for you. This matter needs to be arranged as soon as possible. Today I will let the Ministry of Rites handle it! If you like any lady, you can also ask Your mother and concubine hold the palm of your hand."

When Duanmu Chen heard the words, he quickly thanked him, but he felt something was wrong in his heart.

Because Duanmu Yi approached Su Liang yesterday and said that he wanted her to be the princess.Therefore, last night Su Liang specifically went to talk to Duanmu Chen about this matter and asked him to solve it.

And this is also the purpose of Duanmuchen entering the palace today.

But he didn't say anything, he only mentioned the candidate for the crown princess, why didn't Duanmu Yi mention Su Liang at all?If you really like Su Liang as the crown prince, shouldn't you tell him about the crown prince?

Or, Duanmu Yi mentioned to Su Liang about becoming a princess yesterday, just to test her?Didn't she really want to make her the princess?So, it is not impossible.

Duanmuchen suppressed his doubts, saluted and left.

After leaving the palace, on the way back to the Prince's Mansion, Chang An couldn't help asking, "My lord has been in the palace for so long, is everything going well?"

Duanmuchen looked inexplicable, "Smooth, very smooth." He didn't even have a chance to use the speech he had prepared.But since Duanmu Yi wants to continue to choose concubines for him, he will naturally stop staring at Su Liang. This is a good thing, and Duanmu Chen has fulfilled his promise to Su Liang.

Back at the Prince's Mansion, Duanmuchen asked Chang'an to inquire if anything unusual happened in Huguo Temple today.

When Chang'an came back, he told Duanmu Chen that Lin Bojun led his troops to transport something from the Huguo Temple into the palace. What it was, he couldn't ask, and the monks in the Huguo Temple couldn't tell.

"Miss Su went to Huguo Temple today, met that little monk named Chengyun with that child from Wan's family," Changan said.Su Liang went there aboveboard, and many people saw her.

"She was in the Huguo Temple at the time, and Lin Bojun had such a good relationship with her, maybe she knows something. When it gets dark, you avoid people and go to the Su residence and ask her." Duanmuchen explained.

……

In the next afternoon, Su Liang specially invited brothers Qi Yan and Qi Jun to come over to help, and changed the room next door where "Ting Jing" used to live into her study.The bed where someone died was carried away and replaced with a spacious and comfortable bed.

This is mainly to solve a problem. If the lights are lit in this room at night, people will be suspicious, but Gu Ling lives here, and often reads at night, so it is impossible not to turn on the lights.If it was Su Liang's usual study, there would be nothing wrong with the bright light.

This place has just been changed, Xing Yusheng and Lin Xueqing came over and advised Su Liang, why not just move to the attic that is closer to the garden, where the view is better and it is more spacious.

Although the couple were very serious in persuading them, they both felt that Su Liang would not listen to them.

Unexpectedly, Su Liang nodded readily when she heard the words, "Yes, there is an attic over there, why did I forget it. I haven't looked carefully at what it looks like inside, I'll go and have a look tomorrow, if it's suitable, clean it and move it. It's over."

Xing Yusheng and Lin Xueqing could only think that they thought too much earlier.Su Liang still lives here, just because he is not afraid of ghosts and gods, and he is too lazy to move his nest.However, the presence of a full set of bedding in the next room still cannot be explained.So, it's best to move away.

Su Liang knew that there was an attic in the garden. Although he often walked past the attic surrounded by trees before, he didn't pay much attention to it. He just regarded it as a beautiful and elegant ornamental building in the mansion.

Now I think it's good to move there, because she and Gu Ling can live on the second floor, and the first floor is used for receiving guests.It's more private like this, and you don't have to worry about what someone will see when they come, so Gu Ling can feel more at ease.

"Don't wait for tomorrow, just go and have a look now!" Xing Yusheng suspected that Su Liang was just perfunctory, and planned to finalize this matter as soon as possible.

Seeing the tragic death of "Ting Jing" with his own eyes back then left a great psychological shadow on Xing Yusheng.Now every time he steps into this yard, he can't help but think of that horrible scene.

A few days ago, when he suddenly had nothing to do to open the door of "Ting Jing" and look in, it was also Xing Yusheng's attempt to overcome his psychological shadow.

Lin Xueqing quickly said, "Yes! It's still early, and Ayan and Ajun are here, so we can help. Sister Su might as well move in today. The scenery in the garden is very beautiful now. Sister Su is tired from reading in the future, so she can open the window to enjoy it." arrive."

Su Liang knew why these two people were so enthusiastic about letting her move, and she didn't point it out. Although the purpose was different, but the result was the same, she agreed.

Gu Ling was not here at the moment, because the neighbor was going to be remodeled, so he packed all his things into the warehouse in advance, not afraid of arousing suspicion.

They went to the attic together to have a look, and there were all kinds of furniture in it, and they were all quite expensive. Last year, when Duanmuchen prepared the house for Su Liang as agreed, Chang'an had everything prepared, even the flower hall on the first floor. It can be used directly after simple cleaning.

There is also a stone outside with the word "Yuanming" engraved on it.This attic is called Yuanming Pavilion.

"This place is very nice. There are two rooms upstairs with a good view. One is Su's sister's bedroom and the other is a study. It is just right." Lin Xueqing said as she opened the window, and the beautiful scenery of the lake not far away greeted her eyes, and she couldn't help but marvel , "I even want to move in and live with Sister Su!"

Xing Yusheng quickly changed the subject, "Ah Jun, hurry up and clean up this place, and let Su Liang move here before dark. Go home and call someone over."

Qi Jun then went back to the Xing Mansion next door to find a few servants to help, while Su Liang and Lin Xueqing went back to the original yard to pack their things.

When the sun set, Su Liang's room on the second floor of the Yuanming Pavilion had already been tidied up. Xing Yusheng brought up the vase his grandmother had given to Su Liang. The flowers in it were not withered yet.

Lin Xueqing shook Su Liang's arm, "Sister Su, will you be afraid if you live here at night?"

Xing Yusheng coughed lightly, "That's impossible. The courtyard where Su Liang used to live is much scarier than here."

Su Liang shook her head and said solemnly, "It's not scary. It's more scary if someone wants to sleep with me."

Lin Xueqing shot Su Liang a look, "Sister Su, you are so serious, I will ignore you!"

The only problem here is that there is no kitchen, Su Liang chose a place next to it, and plans to build a kitchen tomorrow.

At nightfall, Su Liang tidied up another room on the second floor and spread out a new set of bedding.There is an open space between the two rooms. There is a table, two chairs, and a window that can be opened. Su Liang intends to use it as a dining room and surround it with a screen. He usually eats here.

Qi Jun bought food from the restaurant and delivered it, because Su Liang said she was very hungry today, so she prepared quite a lot, put it down and left.

As in the past, Su Liang arranged the meals, and Gu Ling appeared on time.

"Master, did you smell it?" Su Liang asked.

Gu Ling sat down opposite her, looked outside through the window, and nodded slightly, inexplicably feeling that Su Liang seemed to be scolding him, but there was no evidence...

Chang'an was ordered to find Su Liang, and when he went to the yard where she used to live, he found no one and the room was empty.After walking around the mansion, I saw a bright light on the second floor of Yuanming Pavilion.

"Miss Su?" Chang An shouted from downstairs.

Gu Ling ate quietly, Su Liang poked her head out of the window, glanced at Chang An, "wait a moment." Then she put down her chopsticks and went downstairs.

Seeing Su Liang coming out, Changan said with a smile, "Last year, the master prepared this house, and at that time he said that Miss Su would like it here."

Su Liang nodded, "Is the prince looking for me?"

"Don't bother Miss Su to go there, but the master has something to ask Miss Su." Chang'an said politely, "General Lin brought something from Huguo Temple into the palace today, does Miss Su know about it?"

Su Liang nodded, "I know."

Chang'an looked happy, "Madam Su, can you tell me what it is?"

Su Liang said two words, "Stone."

Chang'an was stunned, and then heard Su Liang say that she heard that the strange stone fell from the sky last night in Huguo Temple, and then it was transported into the palace. She didn't see it with her own eyes, and she didn't know what was so special about the stone.

"General Lin should know, right?" Chang An asked tentatively.

Su Liang shook his head, "If His Royal Highness doesn't know and needs to ask me, I think Second Brother Lin should only know how heavy the stone is, and he shouldn't know anything else."

Chang'an looked straight, "Yes. I will report the truth to the master. Excuse me, please leave."

After Chang'an left, Su Liang looked at the quiet garden under the night, thoughtfully.Duanmuyi specially sent the forbidden army to transport the stone to the palace. Is there really any oracle?Up to now, Duanmu Yi has conferred Duanmu Chen as the prince, and has a lot of trust in him, but he didn't let Duanmu Chen look at that stone with him?
Going back upstairs and sitting down, Su Liang said, "Could it be that the name of another prince is written on that stone? The emperor won't let the prince know, because he believed in the oracle of the stone and has other thoughts?"

Gu Ling looked calm, "Maybe."

"But if there is really another prince's name on the stone, shouldn't the emperor be the first to suspect that it was specially made by that prince?" Su Liang felt that Duanmu Yi would not be so careless.

But as she said to Chang'an, even if Lin Bojun touched the stone, it is impossible for Duanmuchen to know the inside story.He was just on an errand, and he must have been given a gag order.

Gu Ling put down the chopsticks, picked up the spoon, took a sip of the soup, looked at Su Liang and said, "I'll visit the palace tonight."

Su Liang gave Gu Ling a small steamed bun, "God for your hard work."

……

The news Chang'an brought back did not reassure Duanmu Chen, but made him feel even more strange. He even calmed down and thought of the possibility that Su Liang said: Duanmuyi was hiding it from him. Another prince's name?
"Yuchang Palace..." Duanmu Chen tapped his fingers on the table. It is not advisable to send people to sneak into the palace to investigate. Since Duanmu Yi attaches so much importance to it, he must have sent heavy troops to guard it.

After much deliberation, Duanmuchen decided to do nothing first and wait and see what happened.After all, now that he has a legitimate name, he must act cautiously to avoid complications.

Late at night.

While reading a book, Su Liang waited for Gu Ling to return.

After midnight, Gu Ling floated in through the open window, Su Liang put down the book and stood up, "How is it? Did you see that stone?"

Gu Ling nodded, "I see, Broken Stone."

Su Liang frowned, "broken?"

"When I went, the emperor was arranging for the imperial guards to smash the stones blindfolded." Gu Ling said.

"He doesn't want others to know what's on the stone? Is it really an oracle?" Su Liang became even more curious, "Is it a way to guide the emperor to rule the world? Therefore, no one else can see it, or it will threaten him ?”

"Don't think about it." Gu Ling said.

Su Liang sighed slightly, "It's useless to think about it. This matter is very mysterious from the beginning to the end. Except for the emperor, only the monk who discovered the stone first and Master Puhui knew about it. But they are afraid that they will not say anything about it." .”

"Don't think about it." Gu Ling said again.

Su Liang nodded, "Okay, I'll go back to sleep. Good night, God."

This is Gu Ling's room, Su Liang was about to leave, but before Gu Ling called her, she remembered that she forgot to tell the story, and turned around and came back.

But Gu Ling saw her sleepy face, so she said that he was sleepy and would not listen to the story tonight.

……

The next day, the servants of the Xing Mansion helped to build a kitchen next to the Yuanming Pavilion.Su Liang drew a sketch and made it according to her design. It is more spacious than the previous kitchen, and it is more convenient and trouble-free to use.

Afterwards, Su Liang went to Gao's house twice. Gao Jiabao's body recovered well, and he was much more cheerful. The only troubled thing was that his mother was introducing someone to him...

Duanmuchen's prince canonization ceremony was held as scheduled, and there were no accidents.Duanmu Chen felt that there was nothing obviously wrong with Duanmu Yi's attitude towards him, except that he never mentioned the stone.

No matter how much Duanmuchen searched, he couldn't find any useful information, so he could only put down the stone temporarily, and be his prince well, assisting Duanmu Yi in handling the government affairs. He was better than the former prince Duanmu Sheng in every aspect.

After Duanmu Ao was killed and Duanmu Sheng disappeared, Empress Dowager Wan and Empress Xiaowan quarreled for a while and then subsided. They worshiped Buddha quietly in the harem together, even Duanmu Yi was rarely seen.

But in Duanmu Yi's eyes, they thought that they had already learned that Duanmu Sheng was alive and hiding somewhere waiting to return to seize the throne, so they settled down for the time being, and only sent someone to look after them, and they had already lost affection for them.

Although he is an imperial doctor, Su Liang usually does not need to work in the imperial hospital, only occasionally a concubine in the palace is unwell and will send someone to invite her to go.

Finally, one day in late July, Su Liang received the news that Situ Xie, King of Yue of Liang Kingdom, would arrive in the capital of Qian Kingdom tomorrow, and asked her to assist Prince Duanmu Chen in the reception.

This was decided long ago, Su Liang was not surprised.

Xing Yusheng came over and mentioned that there are soldiers in Xuanbei City who will be responsible for "protecting" Liang Guo's envoys, and they will arrive in the capital tomorrow, but Xing Ji was not allowed to return to Beijing.

"Grandmother is very disappointed." Xing Yusheng sighed, "My married father has not come back, it seems that the emperor intends to let him stay in Xuanbei town for a long time."

Su Liang shook his head slightly, "Not necessarily, maybe there is a suitable candidate to take Uncle Xing's position, the emperor will let him come back."

Xing Yusheng knew that Su Liang was comforting him.But he is actually fine and doesn't need comfort. He thinks there is nothing wrong with Xing Ji doing what he likes, and there is no need to stay at home all the time.But after all, Mrs. Xing is old and always looking forward to the family reunion, and the border is not a safe place, worrying and worrying is inevitable.

Saying that, Xing Yusheng brought up Situ Xie, "Su Liang, do you know King Yue of Liang Kingdom?"

Su Liang shook his head, "I don't know. The first time I heard his name was when the emperor ordered me to help the prince receive Liang's envoy not long ago."

Xing Yusheng knows a little bit, "Situ Xie is the uncle of Emperor Liang. His daughter Situ Ning married to Qianguo many years ago and followed Gu Yuan, the son of the guard of Xuanbei City at that time. Living in the capital for a long time, Situ Ning passed away due to illness four years ago. Gu Yuan helped his side wife, who was also his cousin, to be corrected. Two years ago, the Gu family was exterminated due to treason, and only Chang Xinhou's son Gu Ling was not in the capital at that time , and then disappeared. Qianguo has been looking for Gu Ling, and the last time there was news about him was that Nian Jincheng was rescued after an accident in the Nian family, and it was said that Gu Ling did it."

In fact, Gu Ling knew these things best, but he didn't mention them, and Su Liang didn't follow up to ask them.Hearing from Xing Yusheng, Su Liang still can't imagine what kind of people Gu Yuan and Situ Ning are, and what happened to the rebellion back then.

But those are all in the past, what Su Liang is concerned about now is whether Situ Xie's arrival can remove the hat of rebel from Gu Ling's head.It's the only thing that's relevant to her.

"By the way, it is said that the two countries are going to marry each other. It has been rumored recently that the emperor is going to marry the sixth princess to Liangguo." Xing Yusheng said.

Su Liang almost forgot Duanmu Qianqian, the princess.I still remember the first time I heard the word "six princesses", when Xing Yusheng was suddenly picked up by the royal family to the capital in Bei'an County. At that time, it was said that the emperor wanted to choose a son-in-law for his favorite six princesses.

In the middle, Duanmu Qianqian left Su Liang with the first impression that she had a good relationship with Nian Ruxue, and the second was that there were rumors that the emperor liked Lin Boyan to be the sixth princess' son-in-law, but it didn't matter anymore.Lin Boyan got married, and now his daughter-in-law is happy.Xing Yusheng also became a relative, sweet and sweet.

And the princess who was so rich and precious back then, after her brother's accident, was reduced to the point of making peace with other countries.

The so-called "emperor's favor" is nothing but a joke after all.

……

It was night, Gu Ling disappeared after dinner, and Su Liang didn't know where she went.

Just when Su Liang was about to rest, an unexpected visitor came.

"Miss Su, where is my young master?" The person who came came asked with a three-pointed question, who else could there be besides Uncle Liang?
After seeing Uncle Liang's appearance, Su Liang realized that Gu Ling disappeared tonight, probably because he expected this person to come and didn't want to see him.

"Uncle Liang, he left after seeing you in Xunyang City, and I don't know where he went." Su Liang looked calm.

Uncle Liang snorted, "Don't lie to me! You must know where the young master is!"

Su Liang really hates this self-righteous old man, "He left at that time because he said he was going to meet a friend, and he also explained that if Uncle Liang came again, he only needs to tell you that after the matter he said is done, he will I'll see you in person."

Uncle Liang frowned, "You really don't know?"

Su Liang nodded, "Yes."

"What is your relationship with my son?" Uncle Liang asked Su Liang.

Su Liang looked at Uncle Liang's unkind eyes, and snorted softly, "He loves me so much that he can't even drive him away. If there is something wrong, he won't leave. Are you unhappy that I'm with him? Think I'm not good enough for you My son? It's very simple, take 100 million taels of gold, and I'll leave him right away."

Uncle Liang was so angry that he blew his beard and stared, "I knew that you were not a good person because you hid so deeply before! My young master is obsessed with you? Stop dreaming! I think you must be pestering my young master!"

"Yes, yes." Su Liang nodded, "You are right, everything is right."

Uncle Liang opened his mouth, but suddenly he didn't know what to say, so he gave Su Liang a hard look, "Stay away from my son from now on!" He left after saying that.

Su Liang snorted lightly, "Your son? Don't be too sentimental, that's obviously my son."

Gu Ling suddenly appeared at the door, "You are right."
