The Doctor’s Three-Time Marriage

On the day Situ Xie and Situ Yao left, Su Liang was ordered to see them off.

It was a big scene, but she just regarded it as a boring mission. After sending it out of the city, she went home. Situ Xie didn't bother her anymore after seeing her attitude that day.

As soon as she got home and sat down, without finishing a cup of tea, she heard Qi Jun report that someone was looking for her.

It was Song Qi, the steward who was sent to Kayaba City by the old housekeeper of Ning Mansion. He first came to Xunyang City and then came specifically to pay homage to Su Liang, the head of the family.

Indeed, as the old housekeeper said, Song Qi was plain-looking and older than Su Liang expected. His hair on the temples was frosty, but he was not ugly. Just from the faces of Ning Jing and Ning Xin'er that Su Liang had seen, she could tell that Ning Feng belonged to the ranks of handsome men, and Ning Jing's mother Ning Qingqing was somewhat of a beauty control.

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

Song Qi was dusty, but his eyes were very shrewd at first glance. He nodded and said, "I saw General Lin outside the city escorting the Liang State envoy out of the capital. General Lin also saw me. But it was inconvenient to speak at that time."

"I have informed Lin Xi about asking you to return to the Ning family." Su Liang said, "Since you come to see me, it means that you are willing to return to the Ning family to help."

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

Su Liang smiled and said, "That's good. But you have been away for many years, and as soon as you came back, I entrusted you with important responsibilities for fear that everyone would be dissatisfied. When you come to the capital, you will stay and work as a manager in the shop here to get used to it. Let me see what you are capable of."

Song Qi nodded quickly, "Thank you, Master!"

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

Hearing this, Song Qi looked a little lonely, and said with a wry smile, "After I left the Ning family, I went to Kasyapa City to get married, but my wife passed away in childbirth, leaving me a son. The son was weak and weak. The doctor didn't help him, so he chased his mother away within a few years. "

After hearing Song Qi's words, Su Liang sighed. This means that he did not marry again later. No wonder he looks older than his peers. It's probably because of the changes he has encountered that have dealt him a big blow.

In this era of lack of medical treatment and medicine, it is common for women to have difficult labor and children to die prematurely.

"Everyone in my family is gone, and no one from above is taking care of me. I'm used to living alone. Now that I'm older, I don't think about that anymore." Song Qi sighed.

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, then nodded and said, "Yes, the Qiu family's Zhenwei Escort Agency is very famous in that area."

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

Song Qi shook his head, "I know Qiu Ming and have seen him, but I haven't interacted with him before, so he doesn't count as acquaintance. Qiu Jianren has only heard of him, but has never met him. It is said that he ran away from home for a woman in his early years. I left this time When I was in Kasyapa City, I heard that Qiu Ming had gone to the capital to join the army."

Su Liang calculated the time. When Qiu Ming was in trouble, Song Qi was no longer in Kasyapa City. If he had been on his way, he probably wouldn't know what happened next.

Because Qiu Ming was considered a spy, Duanmu Yi had already sent people south to capture the Qiu family, and also sent people north to investigate "Hansu".

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

Su Liang asked casually about the Lin family again.

"Everything is fine in the Lin family, but the master and his wife miss the eldest son very much, but they never stop him from running away. I support the eldest son joining the army." Song Qi said, "When I heard that I was leaving this time, They didn't stop me, and even prepared a banquet to practice it for me."

Su Liang nodded, "That's good." Judging from Lin Wei's temperament, I thought his family was very harmonious.

Asking Qi Jun to call the chief manager of the Ning family in the capital, Su Liang explained, and then arranged for Song Qi to be the shopkeeper 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 after sending Song Qi away, Su Liang went up to the second floor of Yuanming Pavilion and picked up the book. 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 turned to her, Su Liang couldn't see clearly.

"I have been ordered to deliver a message to Miss Su Liang!" the man in gray said, an old man.

"Whose order is it from? Tell me clearly!" Qi Jun's eyes were wary and he pulled out the long sword from his waist.

The man in gray clothes stopped talking, dropped a letter, turned around and jumped around a few times, and disappeared.

Qi Jun chased for 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, smelling a special aroma. It seemed to be the scent of flowers, but she had never been exposed to it before.

Su Liang unfolded the thin piece of paper and saw the neat handwriting, only one line, "I know your secret."

The most common envelopes and papers do not have any signature.

Su Liang's eyes narrowed! Her secret? Do you know she is a time traveler? Or does she know that the "Ning Jing" beside her was Gu Ling pretending to be?

These two things are her biggest secrets. The former only told Gu Ling, while the latter was known to Uncle Liang, Situ Xie and Nian Jinchengdu.

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

In comparison, if someone knew that she was a time traveler and greeted her in this way, it would be a bigger problem.

Su Liang was thinking, is there someone who is also a time traveler? But she has always kept a low profile in life, and things related to her past 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 can indeed be regarded as one of the characteristics of a time traveler...

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

"What does the man who just came to deliver the letter look like?" Su Liang's face returned to calmness and he put the letter away.

Qi Jun thought for a while and said, "The man is about fifty or sixty years old. He has an average appearance. 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 something happening.

Su Liang had no way of finding out who wrote this mysterious letter and what his intentions were, so he put it away for the time being and planned to wait until Gu Ling came back.

Counting the days, he should see Nian Jin become a success.

…

The next day, Su Liang went to the palace to return the books. After reading all the books he borrowed for the first time, he borrowed a new batch of books from the palace library.

With the token given by Duanmu Yi, she had a smooth journey and no longer had to go to see Duanmu Yi.

Because the library is at the deepest part of the Imperial Garden, after Su Liang finished borrowing the books, he walked through the Imperial Garden alone carrying the bookcase, admiring the ancient trees and exotic flowers and plants as he walked. When he saw something he liked, he wanted to go back and tell Gu Ling He said that they also found them and planted them in their gardens at home.

While walking, there were footsteps coming from ahead, and Su Liang met the Sixth Princess Duanmu Qianqian head-on.

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

Duanmu Qianqian waved away the servants, walked to Su Liang alone, and looked at her intently.

Su Liang knew that Duanmu Qianqian was looking for trouble, so he asked calmly, "I wonder what your Highness the Sixth Princess has ordered?"

A smile appeared on Duanmu Qianqian's face, and she spoke in a gentle tone, "My eldest and second emperor brother, are you the one who caused your harm?"

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

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

Su Liang's expression remained unchanged, "The weather is very good today."

"Don't pretend to be stupid, Su Liang. My father was fooled around by you. Are you proud of it? Don't think I don't know anything!" 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, she suddenly bent down to pull out the sharp knife hidden in Su Liang's left calf.

But Su Liang entered the palace without a knife. This was what Duanmu Yi had asked for when he gave her the pass. She was not allowed to bring any weapons into the palace.

Duanmu Qianqian's expression changed, and he pulled out a dagger from his sleeve.

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

Su Liang, who should cooperate with Duanmu Qianqian in acting... looked up expressionlessly. The sky was blue and cloudless, and the weather was indeed very good. But why are there always so many psychopaths that disgust people? It's so annoying. It can be seen from this that Queen Wan's genes are not good, and every one of her children is either stupid or bad.

If this was the way the Empress Dowager Wanjia came up with to deal with her, Su Liang could only say that she admired Duanmu Qianqian, it hurt her just looking at it. It must have been a similar purpose when the Queen Mother suddenly sent someone to invite Su Liang into the palace on the grounds of physical discomfort on the day of the hunt.

Up to now, the behavior of this group of people can only be described in one word, dying struggle...

If Duanmu Yi chooses to believe Duanmu Qianqian, Su Liang is not afraid. Even if she ends up in the prison, Gu, who is good at robbing prisons, will rescue her and we can run away together...
