After Su Liang finished speaking of Wei Hao’s death, she saw the light in Peng

Wei’s eyes dim instantly as he lay there in a daze, not asking any questions,

slowly closing his eyes.

“Old Peng, my brother personally heard the father and son conspiring against you, and Wei Yao himself admitted that he harmed your son. I need not say more about their intentions. Wei Hao is just like his father, they both want to see your dead body so they can step on you and seek the better future they want.” Su Liang said softly.

A clear tear slid down Peng Wei’s cheek.

Su Liang sighed deeply, “My brother is a straightforward man who clearly distinguishes right from wrong. He did not inform you about killing Wei Hao.

But even if we did not cooperate in this way today, as a general of Qian Country, I would not show any mercy or pity to the Wei family father and son, nor would I spare a person who deserves death for your sake. They do not even seek the interests of Liang Country but their own selfish desires and inflated ambitions, plunging countless common people into the flames of war.”

As she finished, Su Liang stood up, “I’ve said everything I need to say. If you can’t accept Wei Hao’s death and blame it on us, then I have nothing more to say. Someone should soon come and take you back to South Wind City.”

Su Liang reached the door when Peng Wei on the bed opened his eyes and called out to her, his voice sounding much older and tired, “Young girl…” Su Liang turned around and came back, standing by the bed.

Peng Wei’s eyes shimmered with tears as he looked at Su Liang, “Actually, after the assassination attempt yesterday, I knew that the person who wanted to kill me was not only Wei Yao, but also my grandson, who must have known about it.”

There were many things that Su Liang didn’t know, but Peng Wei, who was now looking back, understood them all clearly.

He was not unaware of his grandson’s character.

But after all, he had watched him grow up and they shared blood ties, so Wei Hao knew how to act spoiled in front of Peng Wei.

For Peng Wei to personally say “Kill Wei Hao as well” to Ning Jing was absolutely impossible.

If Wei Hao were still alive, Peng Wei would be willing to give him another chance to reform, even if it was not rational.

Now, Peng Wei had no choice but to face reality.

And deep in his heart, beneath the pain, he even felt a sense of relief.

If Wei Yao was dead and Wei Hao alive, Peng Wei did not know if he could ever face him without any grudge in the future.

After all these events, Peng Wei felt the most indebted to his son and grandson. If it hadn’t happened today, Wei Yao could still have remorselessly harmed Peng Qian, and Wei Hao might have done the same to Peng Fan…

Peng Wei sighed deeply, “Young girl, you’re not doing this for me, so I have to thank you both publicly and privately. Without you, I would have died yesterday and couldn’t have survived today. How could I blame you for doing the right thing?”

Su Liang sighed lightly, “If Old Peng thinks so, then I am relieved.”

“No matter what, you’re my lifesaver, and you’ve prevented Liang Country from falling into misfortune again.” Peng Wei looked serious, “I promise to do what I’ve said. As long as I’m alive, I’ll do my best to prevent battles between Liang and Qian countries.”

Su Liang nodded, “I believe that.”

When Su Liang returned to the adjoining room, she saw Ning Jing lying on the small bed, feigning sleep.

She coughed lightly, “Great God, I’ve slept in that bed.”

“Mm.” Ning Jing did not open his eyes, and his voice sounded inexplicably more languid, “I slept in it last night too.”

Su Liang was stunned, “You slept in it last night and then restored it to its original state?”

“What’s wrong with that?” Ning Jing countered.

Seeing that Ning Jing seemed to be asleep, Su Liang took out the four treasures of the study from the medicine box with a light touch.

She wrote out a prescription for Peng Wei.

In addition to the prescription, Su Liang also gave him all the ready-to-use medicinal herbs she had.

“Young girl, that sugar…” Peng Wei was a little embarrassed.

Su Liang gave Peng Wei the small bottle of sugar pills she had brought and casually said a lucky phrase, “I hope the old gentleman will have peace, joy, happiness, and sweetness in the future.”

Peng Wei looked moved, “Such a good girl, what a pity she’s not from our family…”

Su Liang: …

When Su Liang returned to the adjacent room once more, she had just sat down when she heard footsteps outside.

Through the crack of the window, Su Liang saw Master Pu Qing leading a group of Liang Country soldiers into the courtyard.

“Old General Peng!” “My old bones have a big life, I won’t die.”

“Who did it?”

“It was the two I brought with me. They confessed that they were bought by

Wei Yao’s original concubine from Yin Country for a large amount of money.”

“Damn! That bitch! She must have been the one who caused the deaths of General Wei and Young Master Wei!”

“You… What did you say?

“Today, General Wei and Young Master Wei were assassinated at the General’s

Mansion, both died. Old General, you must hold on!”

“Old General!”

“Old General!”

“Quickly come over, carry the old general away, and find a doctor!”

The noise from the neighboring room finally subsided after a series of chaotic footsteps faded away.

Su Liang looked at Ning Jing, who opened his eyes, sat up, got out of bed, and tidied up the beddings.

“You didn’t sleep?” Su Liang stood up and put the stationery into the medicine box.

Ning Jing shook his head, “It was too noisy. Let’s go.”

Su Liang carried the medicine box on her back, and Ning Jing picked up the basket. Just as they were about to leave the courtyard, they saw Master Pu Qing again.

“Are you two going down the mountain?” Master Pu Qing asked.

Su Liang nodded, “Yes, it’s time to go back. I’ll pass on the letter you wrote for

Cheng Yun when I return to the capital.”

Master Pu Qing nodded, “Thank you, Benefactor Wen. I have a small gift for you, I hope you will accept it.”

As he said this, Master Pu Qing took out a book from his pocket and handed it to Su Liang.

Su Liang took it.

It was a very worn-out book. Only half of the cover remained, many of the interior pages were damaged, the paper yellowed, and the writing faint.

“This is a medical scripture I obtained many years ago by chance. I give it to you, Benefactor Wen, in the hope that it will be useful to you.” Master Pu Qing smiled.

Su Liang quickly thanked him, “Thank you, Master. I will study it carefully.” After putting the worn-out book into the medicine box, Su Liang and Ning Jing bid farewell to Master Pu Qing and left Ping’an Temple.

Today, Che Yun accompanied his mother to Ping’an Temple to worship and listen to Master Pu Qing’s lecture. They also ate vegetarian dishes in the temple, walked around, and were about to leave when Mother Che went to the front hall to pay her respects to the Buddha one more time.

Che Yun knelt and prayed beside her, listening to his mother muttering, “Protect my son,” he restrained his eyes, stood up, and helped his mother up, “Mother, let’s go.”

As soon as they left the front hall, Che Yun saw two people walking not far away, he found them strangely familiar.

“Yun’er, what are you looking at?” Mother Che asked.

Che Yun withdrew his gaze, shook his head and said, “Nothing, I mistook them for someone else. Let’s go.”

But he actually hadn’t made a mistake. He saw Su Liang, or more precisely, the “Wen Liang” siblings.

From the day Peng Wei left Xuanbei City, Che Yun hadn’t seen Su Liang again. He heard from Lin Bojun that she was arranged by Xing Ji to carry out some secret tasks outside the city.

“It’s too mysterious.” Che Yun thought to himself and unintentionally spoke it out loud.

Mother Che asked again, and Che Yun found an excuse to change the subject.

After Su Liang and Ning Jing went down the mountain, they found their horses, which they had left at the foot of the mountain the day before, and rode back to Xuanbei City.

After entering the city, the two secretly returned to the General’s Mansion.

“Uncle Xing might be here, you should hide first.” As soon as Su Liang finished speaking, Ning Jing disappeared.

They didn’t want Xing Ji to know that Ning Jing had come because they couldn’t let him know that Ning Jing was a master, fearing that he would connect it to Gu Ling.

Lin Bojun wouldn’t think like this because he had known Ning Jing for a long time and knew about his martial arts skills last year.

Su Liang, carrying a basket and a medicine box, walked into the courtyard and saw Xing Ji and Lin Bojun sitting and playing chess in the courtyard, obviously waiting for her.

“Xiaoliang!” As soon as Lin Bojun saw Su Liang, his face lit up with joy, and he threw down the chess pieces to greet her, “Are you alright?” Xing Ji looked behind Su Liang, but no one else came in.

“How’s it going? Did everything go smoothly?” Xing Ji asked Su Liang.

Su Liang smiled, “Everything went smoothly. There will be news soon that Wei Yao and Wei Hao have been assassinated and died, and Peng Wei has been seriously injured.”

Xing Ji was taken aback, “Wei Hao too… ”

In his understanding, if Su Liang was working with Peng Wei to kill Wei Yao, Peng Wei probably wouldn’t agree to kill his own grandson as well. Su Liang nodded, “Like father, like son.”

“It must be that mushroom-picker who took matters into his own hands, right?” Xing Ji quickly guessed.

Su Liang shrugged, “Can’t help it, he’s a chivalrous man who hates evil, so when he sees someone who deserves to die, he just takes care of it.” “What did Peng Wei say?” Xing Ji asked.

Su Liang shook his head, “No need to worry, the old man is a reasonable person. He was just blinded by his emotions before. He has thought it through and accepted the reality.”

“That’s good.” Xing Ji breathed a sigh of relief, subconsciously reaching out to

pat Su Liang on the shoulder, but then changed direction halfway and patted Lin Bojun instead, “If Peng Wei takes control in Liang Country, it will be a good thing for us.”

“However, he is old and injured, so if he’s summoned back to the capital city by the royal family, he won’t have a choice.” Su Liang didn’t say it to Peng Wei’s face, but he didn’t really believe in Peng Wei’s promise. Because everything hinges on whether Peng Wei can make the decisions.

“Yeah!” Xing Ji sighed, “But getting rid of Wei family’s father and son who colluded with Yin Country is always a good thing. You deserve a big credit for this!”

Su Liang laughed, “Of course. Uncle Xing, please write a memorial to the emperor quickly. I’ve worked hard these days, and since Liang Country and Qian Country can’t go to war in the short term, I want to ask the emperor for a month’s leave to visit my hometown.”

Xing Ji was not surprised and nodded with a smile, “Absolutely, I support you.

You’ve done so much lately; you definitely deserve a break. You’ve lost weight.”

Lin Bojun asked, “Xiaoliang, are you going back to Su Family Village? Do you still have relatives there?”

Su Liang nodded, “My family is there, so of course I have relatives, as well as some friendly neighbors. I mainly want to take a break in a different environment. ”

Lin Bojun sighed, “If the emperor’s decree doesn’t come, my wedding will have to be postponed.”

Before leaving the capital city, the three Lin brothers had already settled their marriages.

According to the order of their birth, Lin Boyan’s wedding was in March, and by now, he was already married. Lin Bojun and Su Liang both missed the wedding wine.

Lin Bojun’s own wedding was scheduled for the end of April, and today was already April 15th. It would take him several days to get back to the capital city.

Xing Ji had previously asked the emperor to let Lin Bojun return to the capital city to get married first, but there was still no reply.

“Second Brother Lin, don’t worry. Maybe there will be news today.” Su Liang comforted Lin Bojun.

As soon as the words were spoken, a voice came from the entrance to the courtyard, “Someone has arrived from the capital city.” Xing Ji straightened up, and Lin Bojun’s eyes instantly lit up.

The two hurried off to the military camp.

Su Liang didn’t care who or what message came from the capital city. He brought the smoked meat into the kitchen and then went back to his room to change clothes.

By the time Su Liang came out again, the kitchen was already smoking, and Ning Jing was lighting the fire.

“What do you want to eat?” Su Liang rolled up his sleeves.

Although claiming herself to have worked hard, she actually felt a bit guilty because most of the tasks still relied on Ning Jing.

“Guess.” Ning Jing said only two words.

“That’s a lot, but the ingredients are limited, so we’ll just make do with whatever we have.” Su Liang remarked that Ning Jing’s taste was quite picky, liking only delicious things…

Anyway, there was nothing that Ning Jing didn’t love to eat that Su Liang made.

Ning Jing lit the fire, and Su Liang made four dishes and a soup, and specifically cooked a separate bowl of fried egg white soup noodles for Ning Jing.

The two sat in the room, closed the door, and opened half of the window so that Su Liang could be seen from the outside.

“Thank you, Great God, for making my mission to Xuanbei City so smooth.” Su Liang raised her glass filled with water.

Ning Jing’s cup was filled with alcohol; she picked it up, didn’t clink with Su

Liang, took a sip, and put it down, “After returning home, practice martial arts

well. I can’t protect you forever.”

Su Liang agreed, “I know. In case you get injured or sick one day, I’ll have to protect you.”

Ning Jing paused with the chopsticks in hand, glanced at Su Liang indifferently, and said nothing.

Su Liang had lunch at Ping’an Temple and was not hungry now. She just accompanied Ning Jing to eat a little bit.

“Today, Uncle Xing sent a document to the capital city, and after the Emperor responds, it will take us about half a month to go back,” Su Liang sighed. “I’ve missed Lin Big Brother’s wedding wine, and I probably won’t be able to attend Lin Second Brother’s either. Yu Jin will definitely pinch me. Fortunately,

Xueqing’s wedding is in the middle of June, so we have time.”

There wasn’t much of each dish made by Su Liang, and Ning Jing finished eating all of them.

As soon as she put down her chopsticks, she heard Lin Bojun’s excited voice from outside, “Xiaoliang, I’m going back to the capital to get married!” Su Liang was not surprised.

Ning Jing went into the neighboring study room and opened the door. She saw Lin Bojun rushing in with a beaming face.

“I was originally thinking that if the situation here was not good, I would definitely stay and help Uncle Xing. Fortunately, you were here. I didn’t expect things to go so smoothly, and I feel like I came here for nothing, as there was no place for me to use my martial arts!” Lin Bojun said with a full-faced smile, deeply bowing to Su Liang, “The Emperor would allow me to go back to the capital because you have solved almost all the troubles. Second Brother must thank you a lot!”

Su Liang smiled and said, “No need to be polite. Tell Yu Jin that I couldn’t make it to your wedding wine, and the next time we meet, ask her to pinch me a bit lighter. ”

Lin Bojun laughed loudly and promised to convey the message.

Su Liang went back to his room to grab something and handed it to Lin Bojun, “This was given to me by Master Pu Qing of Ping’an Temple to deliver to Little Monk Cheng Yun of Huguo Temple. Second Brother, you’ll be going back first, so please help me bring this over.”

Lin Bojun took it and promised to deliver it.

Before long, Lin Bojun set off for the capital with his followers.

In the evening, the news of Nan Feng’s city lord, Wei Yao, and his eldest son’s assassination and death reached North Xuan City.

Some generals of Nan Feng City originally wanted to keep the news secret, but now that Peng Wei was in charge, he said that Qian Country wouldn’t attack, and if they did, it would be falling for the schemes of those traitorous dogs in Yin Country.

Peng Wei ordered that the army of Liang Country withdraw from Nan Feng City as soon as possible according to the original plan, and complete the handover with Qian Country before discussing the details of peaceful coexistence.

The latest royal intention of Liang Country was also to avoid war and increase trade between the two countries.

On that day, Xing Ji submitted a document explaining the changes in Liang Country and asked for Su Liang’s vacation.

When the time came, Xing Ji sent Su Liang and Che Yun with troops to take over Nan Feng City and spent several days reorganizing the defense arrangements.

The army of Qian Country was still in Xuanbei City, with only 20,000 troops arranged in Nan Feng City.

Xing Ji decided to station Che Yun in Nan Feng City after admitting defeat, so he brought his parents over.

Su Liang continued treating Che’s father with acupuncture every other day.

At her suggestion, Xing Ji decided to start building an official road between Nan Feng City and Xuanbei City.

In this way, if there were a war in the future, the troops and horses could get there faster if the road conditions were good.

The effects of the new training method were evident in a short time.

Xing Ji organized a contest between the soldiers trained in the new and old methods, and overall, the physical fitness of the former was better than the latter.

This way, no one would object, as all the soldiers began training with the new method.

On the day Xing Ji’s document arrived in the capital, the Wan family father and son finally returned to the capital as well.

Wan Cong had people carry Wan Shan into the palace to report back.

Duanmu Yi saw them and didn’t make things difficult for them, he only said that his original intention was for them to go back to the capital to rest for a while and reunite with their families.

As Wan Cong listened, he felt a great deal of hatred but could only respectfully give his thanks and asked to kowtow to the Empress Dowager.

“My mother is not feeling well these past few days. You should go back and rest first. I will arrange for Imperial Physician Gao to treat your father,” Duanmu Yi said calmly.

“Thank you greatly for the Emperor’s grace,” Wan Cong lowered his head even further.

He didn’t dare to ask, and Duanmu Yi didn’t intend to tell him either.

Wan Lin, who had been secretly executed by Xing Ji’s men, had already been sent back to the capital.

The Empress Dowager was truly sick, and the Empress was also sick, crying and demanding to see Duanmu Yi every day.

In the cold palace, the former Crown Prince Duanmu Cheng was also sick.

But Duanmu Yi was in a good mood. As Wan Cong thanked him and took Wan Shan away, Duanmu Yi suddenly smiled and picked up a document, “You guys probably don’t know yet, right? General Wei of Liang Country is dead, and Su Liang won a city back for Qian Country. To reward her, I’m going to let her go out and have some fun for a while. That girl is young, and although she is steady in handling affairs, she also loves playing, haha.”

Upon hearing this, Wan Cong felt so enraged that he almost spat blood.

After they left, Duanmu Yi put down the document and muttered to himself, “How could she be a spy if she’s this capricious? She’s so capable, I’ll just let her be..”
