Qiu Ming's family is located in the city of Kasyapa in the southernmost part of Qian Kingdom. They indeed run an escort agency and are quite wealthy.

As the eldest son of the escort agency, he has lived a smooth life since he was a child, with no worries about food and clothing. If nothing else happens, this year he was going to marry the girl he had been engaged to since childhood, and in two years he would be able to take over the escort agency from his father.

Until his long-lost uncle shows up again and everything changes.

"My uncle was fascinated by a woman in his early years. He ran away from home and went to Yan State. He came back secretly for that woman's daughter!" Qiu Ming said bitterly, "But that is not his daughter!"

In short, Qiu Ming's uncle Qiu Jianren was Muya's mother's licking dog. After Muya's mother died, he became Muya's slave again, doing everything for her.

"I'm living a good life, and I don't want to join the army..." Qiu Ming opened his mouth with red eyes, "I hate that bitch uncle of mine, for forcing me to sacrifice my whole family's lives for Mu Ya! I don't dare to confess, because I hope he will fulfill his promise. , as long as I successfully poison him, he will take my family safely to Yan Country! I don’t want to die, because I want to know if they are still alive..."

Gu Ling shook his head indifferently, "Your uncle will never fulfill his promise. Everything he does is to please Mu Ya. The lives of his relatives are not important to him."

When Qiu Ming heard this, he was so angry that he trembled all over and roared with anger and pain.

"You failed." Gu Ling stabbed Qiu Ming in the heart again.

Qiu Ming looked at him in disbelief, "Impossible! If I failed and Su Liang didn't eat the poisonous food, why would I be caught?"

"Su Liang didn't eat, but Gao Jiabao did." Gu Ling said.

Qiu Ming's face froze, and he suddenly grabbed Gu Ling's shirt tightly, "Brother Hansu, please help me... please help me! We are the same kind, you said so! You did it for your family too." Come here, right? You must understand me! If you can rescue me from the prison, you must be much more capable than me! You help me kill Su Liang! As long as she dies, Mu Ya and Qiu Jianren You will protect my family! Please have mercy on me!"

Gu Ling looked at Qiu Ming and asked, "Why did Mu Ya want to harm Su Liang?"

Qiu Ming shook his head, "I don't know... Zuo was just because she came to the Qian Kingdom and competed with Su Liang and lost the face of the Yan Kingdom. She could have been the crown prince, but in the end she only became the crown prince's concubine! As long as Su Liang As long as he is alive, Muya will always be humiliated in the Yan Kingdom! I overheard what Qiu Jianren said! That has nothing to do with us! If you take the risk to save me tonight, you will definitely help me, right? I am seriously injured now, wait until I recover , I will also sacrifice my life to help you, I swear!"

Gu Ling asked, "Do you know what kind of poison Gao Jiabao has? Is there an antidote?"

Qiu Ming frowned and looked at Gu Ling, "I don't know! It was used by Mu Ya to harm Su Liang. What does it have to do with me? How could she give me the antidote? My family is in danger, why are you still asking these questions? Insignificant things? Think about your family, what would you do if you were in my situation?"

Gu Ling pulled Qiu Ming's hand away and said calmly, "I will appear here really for my family. My only family member, her name is Su Liang."

Qiu Ming's eyes widened and he looked at Gu Ling in disbelief, "You... you are not Han Su! No... you are... you are not... who the hell are you?"

Gu Ling ignored Qiu Ming's question and asked instead, "Why is Su Liang sorry for you?"

Qiu Ming's eyes were frightened, and he shrank and tried to get up, "You were sent by Su Liang...you lied to me! Why do you all want to harm me...I did something wrong...I was forced...I What's wrong……"

Gu Ling watched Qiu Ming stand up and then fall to the ground, using his hands and feet to crawl further away without stopping him.

The night is dark and the cool breeze blows in the mountains.

Qiu Ming crawled out some distance and couldn't help but look back, only to see Gu Ling still standing there, with a chill in his cold eyes.

Qiu Ming's heart tightened and he crawled forward with all his strength!

A shrill scream rang out and quickly disappeared under the cliff.

Gu Ling then walked over, looked at the dark cliff below, turned and left expressionlessly.

Su Liang was awakened by a nightmare in the middle of the night. He sat up and broke into a cold sweat.

Turning his head, Su Liang looked shocked when he saw a dark shadow flashing past. He had already pulled out the dagger from under the pillow and held it in front of his chest!

"It's me." A familiar voice sounded. Gu Ling approached, grabbed Su Liang's wrist, and took away the dagger.

Su Liang breathed a long sigh of relief, "I'm scared to death!"

For the first time, Gu Ling saw Su Liang's face turning pale and her broken hair on her forehead soaked with sweat. She couldn't help but frown, "Are you having a nightmare?"

Su Liang nodded, took his coat and put it on, and sat on the bed leaning on the pillow, "I dreamed that Gao Jiabao was crazy, and I couldn't cure him in my whole life..."

Gu Ling knew in her heart that Su Liang was not a timid person. As long as her own affairs did not involve outsiders, she would never be so afraid.

But this time, although Su Liang was right, Gao Jiabao, who suffered a terrible disaster, became a heavy stone in Su Liang's heart.

Gu Ling went outside, poured a glass of water and came back, moved a chair and sat beside the bed.

Su Liang thought it was water for her and subconsciously reached out to take it, but Gu Ling dodged it.

Su Liang was speechless, "Forget it, drink it yourself."

Gu Ling didn't drink either, so she held it with both hands and talked to Su Liang, "I took Qiu Ming out of the prison."

Su Liang looked shocked, "Why?"

"The Ministry of Punishment can't find anything in the investigation, and it will only get a corpse in the end." Gu Ling said.

Su Liang frowned, "Where are the others? What did you ask about?"

"He fell off a cliff and died." Gu Ling said, "The mastermind behind this is Mu Ya."

Su Liang was stunned, "Muya? That female general from Yan Kingdom?"

Gu Ling nodded and told Su Liang the inside story he learned from Qiu Ming.

After listening to this, Su Liang's face darkened, "I wonder who I offended by using such vicious methods to deal with me, it turned out to be that woman! Even if she was humiliated after returning home because she lost to me, she asked for it! She insisted on competing with me back then!"

The cause of the matter was that Mu Ya wanted to humiliate Su Liang in public and use the newly promoted Wu champion of Qian Kingdom to put a dent in his face. Unfortunately, he failed and was slapped in the face.

As for Qiu Jianren, he lives up to his name.

Even if Qiu Ming is really forced, he himself is selfish and has no right or wrong. His pain was not the reason to hurt Su Liang.

"Since in the end, Master, you didn't see the black mist between Qiu Ming's eyebrows, it proves that God wanted him to die and did not need your rescue." Su Liang said coldly.

Su Liang couldn't stand being treated as a "good person" again and again and using her own morality to harm her. Especially when thinking about Gao Jiabao, who has not been detoxified yet, he wants to chop Qiu Ming into pieces!

As for Qiu Ming's family, they really have nothing to do with Su Liang. She is not a bodhisattva who saves the suffering. Now she is too busy to take care of herself. The only thing she wants to do is to restore Gao Jiabao's health.

Gu Ling handed the teacup in his hand to Su Liang.

Su Liang was stunned for a moment, "Are you sure it's for me?"

Gu Ling nodded.

Su Liang took it and took a sip. The lukewarm water was not cold at all. She drank a glass of water and felt much better.

"Do you want me to go to Mu Ya to get the antidote, or stay and protect you?" Gu Ling took the empty tea cup and looked at Su Liang and asked.

"Ah?" Su Liang was stunned, "This... I haven't thought about it, and I didn't know that the mastermind behind the scenes was Mu Ya. Thank you in advance for your help. But if you go to Yan Country, you will have to come and go. Gao Jiabao may not be able to wait for more than half a month, but if I can't detoxify him, I can only hope to get the antidote from Mu Ya, so I have to go as soon as possible to be safe..."

Su Liang looked troubled, "Protecting me is the second most important thing. Regarding the antidote, Master, are you really willing to go through the trouble?"

Seeing Su Liang looking at him earnestly, Gu Ling nodded slightly, "Okay."

Su Liang punched Gu Ling on the shoulder, "Master, you are so interesting! Good brother!"

Gu Ling lowered his head, glanced at his beaten shoulder, and stood up calmly, "I'm hungry."

Su Liang immediately opened the quilt and got out of bed, "I'm going to make you something to eat. What do you want to eat?"

Gu Ling's eyes fell on Su Liang's white and tender feet, and he immediately looked away, "No need, I will find a way myself. You can go on sleeping."

Before Su Sandals put on her shoes and socks, she saw Gu Ling disappearing into the room.

"Master is such a good person, he knows that the matter is urgent." Su Liang said to himself, "Let's prepare delicious food for him when we get back."

They all woke up, and Su Liang didn't go back to sleep. He planned to continue studying the detoxification method and make preparations.

Just after getting dressed, she walked outside and found Gu Ling standing there. Su Liang looked confused, "Master, you haven't left yet?"

"I've been away from home and haven't said goodbye yet," Gu Ling said.

Su Liang reacted, took the initiative to step forward, hugged Gu Ling, and patted his back, "Master, please be safe when you go out, take care of yourself, and come back soon."

"Yes." Gu Ling responded, and Su Liang let him go.

"You..." Gu Ling looked at Su Liang and spoke, but then paused.

Su Liang also looked at Gu Ling, looking obediently waiting for the lecture.

"You're fine." Gu Ling raised his head, patted Su Liang's head gently, then turned and left.

Its daybreak.

Qi Jun came over and saw that the door of Su Liang's room was open and she was sitting at the table fully clothed, preparing medicine with concentration on her face, so he thought that she had not slept all night.

"Miss Su, Mr. Gao hasn't woken up yet. There is nothing unusual. My brother is here to replace me. If nothing happens, I will go back first and come back later." Qi Jun said respectfully.

Su Liang raised his head and said, "Thank you for your hard work. I'm fine here. Go back and rest."

When Qi Jun turned around, his eyes were fixed on the door of the next room for a moment, and he sighed deeply. He lived here for a while, pretending to be peaceful. It doesn't seem like long has passed, but many things have changed. Every time he came to this courtyard, Qi Jun felt inexplicably sad.

Next, Dr. Gao came, Lin Shuzhi and Lin Bojun couple came, Xing Yusheng and Lin Xueqing couple came.

Su Liang told Dr. Gao that the antidote was not clear yet, but she had sent people to inquire about the poison, hoping to get some news.

Regarding Mu Ya, since Qiu Ming is dead, if Su Liang tells it, she will reveal that the person who kidnapped Qiu Ming has something to do with her.

And now, Su Liang doesn't want to use the royal family of Qian Kingdom to deal with Mu Ya. That would involve a lot of external factors and make it impossible to let go. Since Muya is here to do evil, he will use evil tricks to deal with her.

Su Liang believed that as long as Gu Ling was gone, Mu Ya would never be able to live well.

When he saw Lin Shuzhi, he just reassured Su Liang not to be too stressed.

Lin Bojun came and told Su Liang that Qiu Ming was rescued by Han Su last night.

Although the people who broke into the prison to rescue Qiu Ming last night did not leave any clues, because Han Su disappeared from the military camp yesterday and he had been close to Qiu Ming before, everyone believed that the two of them were accomplices. It was Han Su who robbed the prison last night.

This was a good thing for Su Liang, as he didn't have to worry about anyone linking "Han Su" to Gu Ling or Ning Jing. This was the end of Gu Ling's fake identity.

While Su Liang was having breakfast, Xing Yusheng brought new news. Qiu Ming's body was found under the cliff of Wangxiang Mountain. The jailer's coat was also found on the top of the mountain. It must have been thrown down by the person who kidnapped Qiu Ming.

"It turns out that accomplice rescued the spy, not to take him away, but to silence him!" Xing Yusheng looked solemn, "Now the clues are completely broken!"

"What about Mr. Gao?" Lin Xueqing looked worried, "Why are there always people trying to harm Sister Su?"

Xing Yusheng replied, "Su Liang is too good, and those who harm her are not good people."

Lin Xueqing nodded, "Yes, but there is no peace again and again, even Senior Brother Ning... Forget it, let's not talk about it. Sister Su, after you cure Mr. Gao, I think you might as well resign from your position in the army. , it’s too hard and very dangerous!”

Su Liang nodded slightly, "That's what I meant."

Knowing that Su Liang was busy, Xing Yusheng and Lin Xueqing left after having breakfast with her, saying that Qi Yan and Qi Jun were temporarily at her disposal. The two brothers' current main task was to take turns taking care of Gao Jiabao.

Someone came from the palace for a while, and Su Liang was about to enter the palace. When Qi Yan said that Gao Jiabao was awake, she hurried over and gave him acupuncture to make him fall asleep again. But this is not a long-term solution.

Seeing Gao Jiabao's mad state again, Su Liang went to the palace to meet the saint in a bad mood.

Duanmu Yi asked about Gao Jiabao's situation and learned that Su Liang had no solution. He only said that he believed she would find a solution, so he changed the question and asked about Su Liang's stay in Xunyang City.

Su Liang took the initiative to mention Peng Qian and his son who went to Xunyang City to seek medical treatment from her, saying that it was one of the conditions agreed to when negotiating with Peng Wei in Xuanbei City.

Seeing Su Liangtan's openness, Duanmu Yi also gave up his suspicions and mentioned another matter, "I received news from the Liang Kingdom this morning that the Emperor Liang's uncle, King Situ Xie of Yue, will represent the royal family of the Liang Kingdom. , come to Qian Country as a guest to discuss the marriage between the two countries. When the others arrive, you will assist the prince in receiving them. "

Su Liang was stunned for a moment. Situ Xie? It was the first time she heard this name, but she knew that King Yue of Liang State was Gu Ling's grandfather.

Will Situ Xie's personal visit to Qianguo this time be related to the incident that Gu Ling asked Uncle Liang to convey? Su Liang wasn't sure, but it was possible.

As for the prince... Su Liang knew that this position already belonged to Duanmu Chen. The imperial decree of canonization was issued yesterday. Xing Yusheng mentioned the date of the prince's canonization ceremony, but Su Liang didn't take it seriously at the time. It should be in the near future.

Originally, Su Liang had made up her mind, but she pushed back on everything Duanmu Yi asked her to do.

But thinking that Situ Xie's arrival might have something to do with Gu Ling, Su Liang responded respectfully, "Yes, Wei Chen accepts the order."
