Chapter 240 240. Dying Struggle (Part [-])
On the day Situ Xie and Situ Yao left, Su Liang was ordered to see them off.

The scene was huge, but she just regarded it as a boring task, and after sending it out of the city, she went home.Since Situ Xie saw her attitude that day, he didn't bother her anymore.

As soon as she got home and sat down, she didn't finish her cup of tea. After listening to Qi Jun's report, someone was looking for her.

It was Song Qi, the steward who was sent by the old steward of the Ning Mansion to Jiaye City to look for him. After arriving in Xunyang City, he went to Beijing to meet Su Liang, the patriarch.

Indeed, as the old housekeeper said, Song Qi was plain-looking, older than Su Liang imagined, and the hair on his sideburns was frosty, but it was not ugly.Just from the faces of Ning Jing and Ning Xin'er that Su Liang had seen, one could know that Ning Feng belonged to the ranks of beautiful men, and Ning Jing's mother, Ning Qingqing, was more or less a beauty controler.

"Have you seen Lin Qian?" Su Liang asked Song Qi.

Song Qi was full of travel and dust, but his eyes were very shrewd. Hearing this, he nodded and said, "I saw General Lin who was escorting Liang Guo's envoy out of Beijing outside the city. General Lin also saw me. But it was inconvenient to speak at that time."

"I have informed Lin Qian about asking you to go back to Ning's house." Su Liang said, "Since you came to see me, it seems that you are willing to go back to Ning's house to help."

"Yes." Song Qi nodded, "I had no choice but to leave back then. I prefer tea gardens to orange gardens."

Su Liang smiled, "That's good. But you have been away for many years, and as soon as you come back, I will entrust you with a heavy responsibility. I am afraid that everyone will not accept it. When you come to the capital, you will stay for the first time and work as a manager in the shop here. You can also get used to it. Let me see what you can do. How?"

Song Qi nodded quickly, "Thank you Patriarch!"

"Did your family come together?" Su Liang asked.She forgot to ask Lin Qian about Song Qi's family situation.

Song Qi heard the words, but his expression was a little lonely, and he smiled wryly, "After leaving the Ning family, I went to Jiaye City to start a family, but my wife died of dystocia and left me a son. My son is blessed and weak. The doctor and the medicine didn't get better, and he chased his mother away after a few years."

Hearing Song Qi's words, Su Liang sighed.This means that he did not remarry later.No wonder he looks older than his peers, probably because of the accidents in the past, which caused him a lot of blows.

In this era of lack of medical care and medicine, it is not uncommon for women to have dystocia and children to die early.

"My family is gone, no one is in charge, and I'm used to living alone. Now that I'm older, I don't think about those anymore." Song Qi sighed softly.

Su Liang remembered something and changed the subject, "You have lived in Kasyapa City for many years, do you know that there is a family named Qiu? They run an escort agency."

Song Qi was stunned for a moment, nodded and said, "Yes, the Qiu family's Zhenwei Escort Agency is very famous in that area."

"The Qiu family has a son named Qiu Ming. He has an uncle named Qiu Jianren. Do you know him?" Su Liang asked.

Song Qi shook his head, "Qiu Ming, I know it, and I've seen it, but I haven't dealt with him before, so I don't know him. Qiu Jianren has only heard of that person, but he has never seen that person. It is said that he ran away from home for a woman in his early years. I am leaving this time. When I was in Jiaye City, I heard that Qiu Ming went to the capital to join the army."

Su Liang counted the time, Song Qi was no longer in Kaye City when Qiu Ming's accident happened, if he had been on his way, he probably didn't know what happened next.

Because Qiu Ming was identified as a spy, Duanmu Yi had already sent people south to arrest Qiu's family, and also sent people to the north to investigate "Han Su".

But until now there is no news, Su Liang suspects that the Qiu family has been disposed of by Qiu Jianren.As for "Han Su", naturally nothing can be found.

Su Liang casually asked about the Lin family.

"Everything is fine in Lin's family. The master and wife miss the eldest son very much, but they never stop him from running out. The master supports the eldest son's joining the army." Song Qi said, "This time I heard that I am leaving, they He didn't stop him, and even set up a special banquet to practice for me."

Su Liang nodded, "That's good." Looking at Lin Qian's temperament, he thinks his family is very harmonious.

Ask Qi Jun to call the chief steward of the Ning family in the capital, Su Liang explained, and then arrange for Song Qi to be the manager of the tea house in the capital.Come see her again in half a month.

In this way, Song Qi left with the chief steward.

Just as Song Qi was sent away, Su Liang went up to the second floor of Yuanming Pavilion, picked up the book, and before he opened it, he heard Qi Jun's voice from below, "Who are you?"

Su Liang frowned, opened the window and looked out, and saw a man in gray standing downstairs, confronting Qi Jun.Because his back was facing her, Su Liang couldn't see clearly.

"Your Majesty is ordered to deliver a letter to Miss Su Liang!" the man in gray said, he was an old man.

"By whose order, tell me clearly!" Qi Jun looked wary and drew the long sword from his waist.

The gray-clothed man stopped talking, dropped a letter, turned around and jumped a few times before disappearing.

Qi Jun chased after a few steps, and when he heard Su Liang calling him, he turned back, picked up the letter from the ground, and sent it to Yuanming Pavilion.

Su Liang put on cloth gloves, took it and opened it, and smelled a special fragrance.It seemed to be floral, but she hadn't touched it before.

On a thin piece of paper, Su Liang unfolded it, and saw that the handwriting was neat, and there was only one line, "I know your secret."

The most common envelopes and paper, without any signature.

Su Liang's eyes froze!her secret?Do you know that she is a time traveler?Or do you know that the "Ning Jing" beside her was pretended by Gu Ling?
These two things are her biggest secret.The former only told Gu Ling, while Uncle Liang, Situ Xie and Nian Jin all knew about the latter.

But with the death of "Tranquility", even if the latter is exposed again, Su Liang still has room to deny it.

In contrast, if someone knew that she was a time traveler and greeted her in this way, she would be in the open and the other party in the dark, which might become a hidden danger.

Su Liang was thinking, could there be someone who is also a time traveler?But she has always been low-key in her life, and things related to her previous life are only revealed in front of Gu Ling.What makes outsiders feel mysterious is her strong return after leaving Beijing for more than a year.And this is indeed one of the characteristics of a traverser...

Qi Jun saw that Su Liang's expression was different, and asked quickly, "Miss Su, are you alright?"

"What does the person who came to deliver the letter just now look like?" Su Liang regained his composure and put the letter away.

Qi Jun thought for a while and said, "The man is about five or sixty years old, and his appearance is not more than ordinary. He has small eyes, a flat nose, thick lips, and no obvious features."

Su Liang didn't let Qi Jun chase him because he was afraid of accidents.

Who did this mysterious letter come from, and what was its intention? Su Liang had no way of finding out, so he put it away for now, and planned to wait for Gu Ling to come back.

Counting the days, he should see Nian Jincheng.

……

The next day, Su Liang went to the palace to return the books, read all the books he borrowed for the first time, and borrowed a new batch of books from the Palace Library.

Holding the token given by Duanmu Yi, she went all the way unimpeded, so she didn't need to go to see Duanmu Yi again.

Because the Library Pavilion is at the deepest part of the imperial garden, after Su Liang borrowed the books, he walked through the imperial garden alone with the bookcase on his back. Said that they also found and planted in the garden at home.

As they walked, there were footsteps in front of them, and Su Liang ran into the sixth princess Duanmu Qianqian head-on.

The two have never had a direct interaction.After Su Liang saluted, he stepped aside and waited for Duanmu Qianqian to leave first.

But Duanmu Qianqian waved his hand, waved away the servants, walked to Su Liang alone, and looked at her fixedly.

Su Liang knew in his heart that Duanmu Qianqian was looking for trouble, so he asked calmly, "I don't know what orders the Sixth Princess has?"

A smile appeared on Duanmu Qianqian's face, and he spoke softly, "My big brother and second brother, are you the one who killed me?"

Su Liang shook his head, "Sorry, I don't understand what His Royal Highness Sixth Princess is saying?"

Duanmu Qianqian approached Su Liang's ear and lowered his voice, "You and Brother Fourth Emperor have known each other for a long time, right? You are his woman, right? Everything I do is to help him get the crown prince, I guess Is it right?"

Su Liang's face remained unchanged, "The weather is fine today."

"Don't pretend to be stupid Su Liang, my father has been played around by you, are you very proud?" Duanmu Qianqian sneered.

Su Liang nodded, "What did Her Highness the Sixth Princess eat, she does have bad breath."

Duanmu Qianqian's face froze, and with a cold snort, he suddenly bent down to pull out the sharp knife that Su Liang had hidden in his left calf.

But Su Liang didn't bring a weapon today.After getting the pass token from Duanmu Yi, he was warned at that time not to bring any sharp weapons with him when entering the palace.

Not finding Su Liang's knife, Duanmu Qianqian got up and pulled out a dagger from his sleeve!

Su Liang didn't need to dodge, because Duanmu Qianqian plunged the knife into his belly, let go, screamed in pain, fell to the ground, and shouted, "Help...help!"

Su Liang looked up, the blue sky was like washing, the weather was really good.But why do so many psychopaths come out and disgust people?It's really annoying.

If this is the way the Empress Dowager Wanjia came up with to get rid of Su Liang, Su Liang can only say that she admires Duanmu Qianqian, it hurts to look at her.

If Duanmuyi believed in Duanmu Qianqian, Su Liang wouldn't be afraid, even if she got off the prison, Gu, who is good at robbing prisons, would go to rescue her, and then we could run away together...
