It rained heavily.

Duanmu Chen stood by the window with a solemn expression, letting the rain come in with the wind and sweep across his face.

The incident happened suddenly, and although he has some suspicions so far, they have not been confirmed. One thing that is certain is that he must not lose Su Liang, his irreplaceable partner.

The sound of footsteps sounded, and Chang An hurried to the corridor, stamped his feet to shake the rain off his body, and stood at the door talking to Duan Muchen before going in, "Master, the prison is heavily guarded and cannot be entered!"

Duanmu Chen narrowed his eyes slightly, "Heavy guard? Does the emperor really want to take this opportunity to get rid of Su Liang... No, if that is the case, we can kill her immediately and there is no need to send her to the sky prison to avoid long nights and dreams."

Changan frowned and did not dare to speak.

"Have someone go watch near the Tianlao and pay attention to who comes in and out." Duanmu Chen said, "Go to Su Liang's house and have a look."

Chang'an was stunned for a moment, "Miss Su's house? Is there no one there at the moment?"

"What if there is someone?" Duanmu Chen thought thoughtfully, "Go quickly!"

Chang'an accepted the order and left quickly.

Not long after, he left and returned, telling Duanmu Chen that the Su Mansion was empty.

"She just surrendered. It's impossible that she didn't leave a way out for herself..." Duanmu Chen frowned, "Is it possible that she expected me to save her?"

Chang'an nodded immediately, "My subordinates think so. For such a big thing, others can't do whatever they want."

"But I can't break into the prison, otherwise it will be counterproductive." Duanmu Chen had a headache. "The most important thing is that we can't be sure what my father's plan is for Su Liang."

Chang'an sighed, "I just think that Miss Su is in danger in the prison." If someone wants to harm her secretly, now is a good opportunity.

Duanmu Chen's head hurt even more when he thought about Queen Mother Wan's threat to give Su Liang a glass of poisonous wine tonight.

After a while, Duanmu Chen took a deep breath, as if he had made up his mind, "Prepare the car, I want to enter the palace to see my father!"

Chang'an quickly went to prepare the carriage and horses.

Not long after, Duanmu Chen's carriage left the Prince's Mansion in the heavy rain and drove towards the palace.

What Duanmu Chen didn't know was that Su Liang was not in the prison at this moment, but was hiding not far from the Wan family, staring at the wall where Cheng Yun entered the Wan family.

Her clothes had long been soaked. A cold wind blew and she shivered. While she was worried about Bai Xiaohu and Chengyun, she also remembered the time in Bei'an County when she and Gu Ling braved a heavy rain to rescue someone. thing.

It's a pity that Gu Ling is not here, otherwise Bai Xiaohu would have been rescued... Su Liang thought of this, shook his head, and abandoned this idea. Calculating the time, Gu Ling was on his way back at most, and he wouldn't be there today no matter how soon. If Gu Ling wanted to wait for Yan Yu and Nian Jincheng to settle their marriage affairs before returning to Beijing with Nian Jincheng, he didn't know how long it would take.

Su Liang was always with Gu Ling. Apart from her medical skills, she didn't think she was very powerful. Even if she got the top prize in martial arts, her martial arts skills were not comparable to Gu Ling's.

What is happening now is the subsequent reaction caused by her decision to avenge the original owner and his family. Until now, she did not regret everything she had done before. Both Duanmu Sheng and Duanmu Ao deserved their punishment and deserved their death.

But the last thing Su Liang wants is for her own affairs to implicate innocent people. This is the case right now.

Su Liang felt uneasy after not seeing Chengyun come out for a long time. He silently recited Chengyun's mantra "Amitabha" and hoped that God would bless him and nothing would happen to Chengyun and Bai Xiaohu.

I don’t know how much time passed, but the sky became darker and darker.

Su Liang finally saw someone jumping out of Wanfu's wall and rushed out immediately. Because she had been hiding in one place for too long, her legs were numb and she almost fell down.

The heavy rain blurred the vision, but Su Liang knew it must be Chengyun, and no one else would come out from here.

Soon, Chengyun also saw Su Liang and rushed towards her.

When he got closer, Su Liang saw what Chengyun was carrying, and felt a little relieved, "Is it Xiaohu?"

Seeing Cheng Yun nodding affirmatively, Su Liang's eyes lit up and he immediately went to check, "Is he... okay?"

"I'm unconscious. It should be fine." Chengyun said.

"Okay, let's go! Go to my house!" Su Liang looked in the direction of Wanfu, but no one was chasing him out, so he quickly left with Chengyun in the rain.

After entering Su Mansion, Su Liang took Chengyun directly to Yuanming Pavilion.

Qi Jun heard the noise and came out. When he saw Su Liang, his expression changed, "Who are you?"

"It's me." Su Liang said. She had disguised herself, and it was normal that Qi Jun didn't recognize her.

Qi Jun's eyes widened, "Miss Su? Have you escaped from prison?"

Su Liang shook his head, "It's a long story, go boil some water!"

"Hey!" Qi Jun looked happy and was very happy to see Su Liang back safely. Although they didn't know what happened, everyone thought that Su Liang was in the heavily guarded prison at the moment. Mr. Qin and Qin Kang decided to wait and see what happened and told them not to act rashly. I didn't expect Su Liang to be able to run out, he was so capable.

Xing Yusheng and Lin Xueqing went to the Duke of Qin's Mansion to discuss countermeasures and had not returned yet. Qi Jun did not inform them immediately. He followed Su Liang's instructions and went to the kitchen to boil water.

Su Liang took Chengyun into Yuanming Pavilion. There was a soft couch on the first floor and asked him to put Bai Xiaohu on it first.

Originally, Bai Xiaohu lowered his head and came back in a hurry, but Su Liang couldn't see clearly. Now he was lying face up. Su Liang saw his thin little face was bruised and bruised, and his lips were chapped and bleeding, and she couldn't help but feel angry. .

"Amitabha, if the monk is one step too late, the tiger will be in danger." Chengyun sighed. He has not yet told Su Liang how he rescued Bai Xiaohu. It was really dangerous.

Su Liang first took Bai Xiaohu's pulse and held his hand. It was cold. He looked at the pulse and found that he was just weak, as if he hadn't eaten for a long time. Nothing else. It was because he had been drugged that he didn't wake up.

"Is Xiaohu okay?" Chengyun asked.

Su Liang shook his head, "It's not serious."

Chengyun breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good. You take care of him. It's time for the young monk to go back to the temple. The incident happened suddenly, and he didn't even tell the uncle when he came down the mountain. The young monk will come to see Xiaohu another day."

"Wait a minute." Su Liang stopped Cheng Yun, "How did you find Xiaohu?"

Chengyun sighed deeply, "He was thrown into the dry well in that garden."

Su Liang's face was filled with anger, and he saw that Bai Xiaohu's bare foot was hanging unnaturally. The dirt could not cover the large bruises on it, and it had obviously been soaked in water for a long time.

On a heavy rainy day, water filled the dry well. If he was not rescued in time, he would surely drown.

"The little monk followed what Almsgiver Su said and searched everywhere, but couldn't find it, so he went to catch Wan Shan. There was someone protecting Wan Shan, but fortunately that person was not his opponent. After catching Wan Shan, in order to avoid trouble, the little monk He didn't want to hurt anyone, so he took Wan Shan around the house. When he saw people, he asked them to tie each other up and gag them, and finally forced Wan Shan to reveal the whereabouts of Xiao Hu. He refused to admit it at first, so Xiao Monk could only do it. I threatened to... kill him..." Cheng Yun told Su Liang what happened with some difficulty. It was not easy for him to say something like murder, even if it was false.

Su Liang nodded, "Very smart. Thank you for your hard work." He patted Cheng Yun on the shoulder.

Chengyun looked a little stiff, "No...it's okay, it's all to save people, save Xiaohu. Donor Su, don't be like this."

Su Liang: ...It was her fault that she scared the little monk, she just wanted to thank him.

"Drink some hot water before leaving." Su Liang said, "Sit down first. Don't worry that Huguo Temple will think you have lost it. It's not like you can't go down the mountain."

Chengyun hesitated for a moment, glanced at the unconscious Bai Xiaohu again, then sat down, took off the cloth on his head, took off Gu Ling's clothes, folded them neatly, placed them on the stool next to him, and resumed his normal state. The appearance of a monk.

Qi Jun, who had brought the water, was stunned by his bare head, and then he realized that the person who came back with Su Liang was actually the beautiful young monk from Huguo Temple.

Qi Jun was even more surprised by the sight of Bai Xiaohu on the bed. Of course he knew him, because he and Su Liang first met in Bei'an County. This was a child from Su Liang's neighbor. He always went to Su Liang's place and had a good relationship.

When the smart Qi Jun saw this situation, he had already guessed something. First, he put down the hot water he drank, poured three cups, and then brought another basin of hot water.

Su Liang first wiped Bai Xiaohu's face and hands, then wiped his feet clean, found ointment, and applied medicine to him.

Chengyun drank a glass of hot water and poured another one for himself. Just as he took a sip, he suddenly heard Su Liang ask, "Where is Wanshan? Did you let him go in the end?"

Chengyun choked, coughed a few times, put down the cup, shook his head, "It doesn't count."

"Then what did you do to him?" Su Liang asked.

Chengyun looked a little unnatural, "The little monk rescued the little tiger from the dry well. He felt really unhappy, so he pushed the mountain down. But the little tiger is fine, he won't die, right?"

Su Liang looked at Cheng Yun's uneasy expression and sneered, "It's best to die."

Cheng Yun sighed repeatedly, "Sin, sin, a young monk should not be impulsive. If he commits murder, it will be an unforgivable sin."

"That man wanted to kill Xiaohu. If you kill him, you are doing justice to God." Su Liang hummed.

Chengyun couldn't help but shake his head and read Buddhist scriptures.

Su Liang knew that the young monk was just too kind and had a pure heart, and was unwilling to hurt others. It was not that he didn't understand right and wrong, so he didn't say anything more.

Su Liang fed Bai Xiaohu a glass of warm water and gave him some medicine. Looking outside again, it was completely dark.

"Donor Su, the young monk has to go back to the temple." Chengyun asked to leave again.

Su Liang nodded, "Well, you go back first and don't tell others what happened today."

Chengyun frowned, "Monks don't lie..."

Su Liang shook his head, "You should think this way. This kind of thing has nothing to do with others. If you say it and let people know about it, it will only add unnecessary trouble to others."

Cheng Yun was stunned for a moment, "What Benefactor Su said makes sense."

"Moreover, someone wants to harm me and Xiaohu. Now I should be waiting for Wenzhan in the prison. Are you telling others that someone is coming to arrest me?" Su Liang asked.

Chengyun waved his hand quickly, "The young monk has never thought of it this way."

"That's enough. If someone asks you where you have been, just say that you went for a walk under the mountain. This is not a lie." Su Liang said.

"Okay then." Chengyun asked weakly, "Almsgiver Su, that Wanshan monk, do you want to go see how he is doing?"

Su Liang glared at Chengyun, "You are not willing to stay and take care of Xiaohu, but you are still thinking about that evil man? Is this reasonable?"

Cheng Yun wanted to say that he was just afraid of killing people, but when he saw Su Liang glaring at him, he subconsciously said, "I'm not going, little monk. Go back to the temple and say goodbye."

Just as he walked out, Chengyun came back again, "The little monk will come to visit Xiaohu tomorrow, so I'll ask Donor Su to take care of him. Donor Su should take care of himself."

"Let's go, let's stop chanting." Su Liang waved his hand.

Chengyun frowned, "The young monk didn't recite sutras."

Su Liang:......

After Cheng Yun left, Qi Jun said he would buy some food and come back, but Su Liang asked him to avoid people.

Su Liang took the quilt down from upstairs and covered Bai Xiaohu with it. Thinking that Bai Xiaohu had been arrested for at least seven or eight days, the Bai family must have gone crazy with anxiety, and Su Liang felt extremely guilty.

Seeing that Bai Xiaohu's cheeks were a little red, Su Liang touched his forehead and felt a little feverish.

She brought a basin of cold water over, soaked the handkerchief in it, and put it on his forehead. She also found strong wine and wiped the soles of his hands and feet.

Bai Xiaohu's little hands trembled and he slowly woke up.

Su Liang looked happy, but after Bai Xiaohu saw her unfamiliar face in disguise, he screamed and shrank into a corner.

Su Liang then remembered that she forgot to take off her disguise, and quickly said, "Xiaohu, it's me, Sister Su Liang!"

"No, you are not Sister Su Liang! You are a bad person!" Bai Xiaohu shook his head.

It happened that Qi Jun came back with a food box at this time, and Su Liang quickly asked him to come over and look at Bai Xiaohu before going upstairs.

Qi Jun sat down next to him and said warmly, "Xiaohu, do you still remember me? I have been to Sujia Village, my surname is Qi, and you called me Brother Xiaoqi at that time."

Bai Xiaohu closed his eyes and refused to open them. He curled up into a ball and trembled slightly. It was obvious that this experience had caused considerable psychological trauma to him.

Qi Jun tried several times to touch Bai Xiaohu but failed, so he had to give up. He saw Su Liang regained his true appearance, changed his clothes, and came down from upstairs.

Qi Jun sighed and went to put out the food.

Su Liang sat down on the soft couch and said softly, "Xiaohu, it's really me. Do you still remember when we went up to the mountain to hunt wild boars together?"

Bai Xiaohu slowly raised his head, saw Su Liang's face again, and suddenly burst into tears.

Su Liang hugged Bai Xiaohu over and patted his back gently, "It's okay, it's okay. Sister Su Liang will take you home soon."

"Sister Su Liang...wuwuwuwu...I want to go home..." Bai Xiaohu cried until he was out of breath.

"Well, we'll go back soon." Su Liang said.

Qi Jun filled out two bowls of porridge and was about to go out when Su Liang stopped him and asked him to sit down and eat together.

After finally coaxing the frightened Bai Xiaohu, Su Liang brought hot white porridge. The hungry child started eating it immediately, but Su Liang asked him to slow down.

First let Bai Xiaohu eat enough, and Su Liang ate some himself. Then he asked Qi Jun to boil water, wash Bai Xiaohu, and then give him medicine.

Su Liang went to make some medicine for Bai Xiaohu. It was very bitter, but he held his nose and drank it all in one breath.

"Awesome." Su Liang patted Bai Xiaohu's head gently, "I'll let Uncle Xiao Qi take care of you later, don't be afraid."

Bai Xiaohu nodded and asked in a low voice, "Sister Su Liang, is brother Ningjing really gone?"

Su Liang sighed slightly and nodded.

Bai Xiaohu's eyes suddenly turned red, and he buried his head and cried again.

When Su Liang went upstairs, Qi Jun gave Bai Xiaohu a bath. Seeing that his body was all blue and purple, he couldn't help but cursed those beasts in his heart, even the children.

After taking the medicine, Qi Jun carried Bai Xiaohu to Su Liang's study upstairs, where she made a new bed.

Su Liang didn't turn on the lamp and just sat by the bed, "Go to sleep, I'm here."

Bai Xiaohu fell asleep quickly. Qi Jun whispered to Su Liang to rest and he would take care of her, but Su Liang asked him to go back and rest.

"Miss Su may have a lot of things to deal with tomorrow, so let's go get some sleep." Qi Jun advised again.

Su Liang made sure that Bai Xiaohu was asleep and asked Qi Jun to help watch and call her anytime if anything happened, then got up and went back to her room.

Lying down, Su Liang was exhausted both physically and mentally. Her last thought before falling asleep was, "It would be great if Gu Ling was here"...
