The Doctor’s Three-Time Marriage

It rained all night, and Su Liang kept watching Ah Si without closing his eyes.

It wasn't until the wind and rain outside the window subsided and the sky gradually became brighter that she confirmed that Ah Si had no fever and his pulse had stabilized, then she breathed a sigh of relief.

Ah Si's mother came over and persuaded Su Liang to go to sleep for a while. She didn't insist anymore and left after telling some things to pay attention to.

The morning breeze was cool after the rain. Su Liang sneezed, rubbed her tired brows, and slowly walked towards her residence.

There was also cold chicken soup on the table in the room, with a layer of grease on it.

Su Liang walked straight to the bed without changing her clothes. She took off her shoes and lay down. She pulled the quilt over and closed her eyes. She felt sleepy and soon fell asleep.

She slept deeply. In her dream, she traveled back to her previous life and found that everything here was just a dream...

Su Liang woke up near noon, sat on the bed, looked around, and sighed in his heart, it was not a dream, and he could not go back.

Before this, Su Liang had never dreamed of returning to her original world, because there was no one she cared about and nothing to worry about.

What happened yesterday gave Su Liang some inexplicable fear deep in her heart. It was also the first time she felt personally the biggest difference between the two worlds.

In the past life, there was a society governed by the rule of law. As long as most people abide by the law throughout their lives, they would not have anything to do with "murder" unless they were so unlucky.

But it's different here. Although there are so-called laws, they all serve the rulers and there is no perfect system. Ordinary people have to pay with their lives if they kill ordinary people, but most of the time the powerful do not need to pay any price for killing ordinary people. In other words, it is a simple and crude method of preying on the weak.

It's not that Su Liang doesn't understand. Even after she traveled through time, she killed someone, and now she can chop off a person's hand without changing her expression. This kind of thing was unthinkable in her previous life.

Su Liang's fear was that she found that she was being assimilated by the rules of this world and worked hard to become a strong one among the weak. But after she was almost killed and almost killed those around her, she realized that although she had always been I am working hard to improve my strength, but it is far from enough. The scary thing is that maybe even if her martial arts improves even more, she won't be able to completely avoid what happened yesterday.

Because strength and weakness are relative. Human beings are mortal and do not have three heads and six arms. If they are killed, they will die. And no matter how high the martial arts is, it is impossible to make a person invulnerable.

Although it could have been avoided if she had been more cautious yesterday and not gone to practice medicine, there is no point in making such assumptions after the fact. The enemy can always find the most effective means to deal with you.

Su Liang thought last night that maybe she should go back to Sujia Village, or find somewhere else, to be an ordinary person and stay away from power disputes.

But after waking up, she clearly knew that avoiding would not solve any problems. She's already in the trap, and it's not that easy to get out.

Su Liang was a little confused and wanted to talk to Gu Ling, but unfortunately he wasn't there.

After washing up and eating something simple, Su Liang went to see Ah Si.

He is out of danger, but still awake. Facing the frightened Ah Si family, Su Liang promised that he would get better.

The old housekeeper was so frightened yesterday that his face was pale now. Originally, he wanted his granddaughter to work as a maid for Su Liang. After being rejected by Su Liang, he saw that Su Liang and Ah Si were getting along well, so he planned to mention it to Su Liang and bring Ah Si with him if she could be used.

After what happened, the old housekeeper gave up the idea. Although even if he mentioned it, Su Liang would not accept it.

After seeing Ah Si, Su Liang went to give Peng Qian acupuncture again.

Peng Fan saw that her expression was fair, but she was much quieter than yesterday, and he didn't dare to ask anything.

"In five or six days, you can start back." Su Liang said.

The Peng family and his son thanked him again. Their status is sensitive and they should not stay here for a long time.

After Su Liang left, Peng Fan said to Peng Qian, "Actually, I really wanted to suggest to her just now that she hire experts to protect herself. At least there should be servants around her to serve her, and she shouldn't always be alone."

Peng Qian shook his head, "It's crossed the line. Just because you can't see anyone around her, doesn't mean there isn't one. Even if there is none, it's her own choice, and it's not because she couldn't think of what you said. What you should see is that she Just a few days after taking over the Ning family, a loyal servant rushed out to protect her in critical moments. This is also due to her ability, and it is not all luck. "

Peng Fan looked slightly startled, "Father taught me rightly. My son is self-righteous."

Peng Qian sighed, "After what happened to the Wei family, my father realized how naive he had been. The human heart is the most unpredictable thing in the world, so I admire General Su. Although she is only a little girl now, she has the conditions to rely on her." There are many people who are willing to win over her, but she has never stopped improving her own strength. Remember, putting your own safety in the hands of others is risky at any time, even for us, father and son, there is no trust. Risk, now that I have to rely on you for protection, I will be a burden to you, which is not what I want."

…

Su Liang didn't know that the Peng family and his son were talking about her. She went to the place where the assassin was imprisoned last night, and the assassin's grandson was still alive.

When he saw Su Liang, the old man got up, held his pierced leg, knelt down with difficulty, and kept kowtowing, begging Su Liang to let his grandson go.

"Who ordered you to come?" Su Liang asked coldly.

The old man said with a grimace, "He is...the eldest prince's person..."

Su Liang was not surprised, "Why you?"

"I have done some things for the eldest prince. He sent someone to find me this time and promised to assassinate you, but I didn't expect that someone secretly captured my grandson and followed me to Xunyang City, seriously injuring my grandson. Forcing me to use this method to get close to you and gain your trust..." The old man cried bitterly, "I don't want to do this, it really wasn't my idea! How could I not even care about my grandson's life?"

Su Liang's face was expressionless, "How much did he give you?"

The old man's expression froze and he whispered, "Five thousand taels of silver."

Su Liang's eyes were cold and he said, "You are just a paid person who does dirty work. You once helped Duanmu Sheng do shady things, and this time you came to kill me for five thousand taels. Duanmu Sheng sent people to kill me more than once before. There were even death warriors, but unfortunately they all failed. I chose you this time with a careful plan. After all, how could I have thought that a person who came to seek medical treatment with his dying grandson in broad daylight would be an assassin? "

The old man kept kowtowing, "I was forced, really forced! If I don't do it, not only my grandson, but also my whole family will die!"

Su Liang asked in a cold voice, "So, do I owe you? I saved your grandson, but you are not only ungrateful, but you also want to take my life when I am tired, and let me die to protect your family. You were forced ? Do I deserve this because I dug your ancestral grave in my previous life?"

"I was wrong... I was really wrong... General Su, please spare me, I will never dare to do it again, and my grandson, he is innocent, he knows nothing!" The old man knelt. My head was broken.

Su Liang took a deep breath and said, "I can't do nothing to save someone, but I didn't expect that this would become my biggest weakness in your eyes. I admit, this move is indeed very clever. This time I admit defeat."

The old man looked at Su Liang with earnest eyes, "As long as you spare me, I will work like a horse for you from now on! I swear!"

"Although the law cannot stop you from coming to kill me, since you have fallen into my hands, if you have any grievances and difficulties, go and tell the government." After Su Liang finished speaking, he called the guards in.

The old man's face turned pale. He thought he would be killed by Su Liang, but he never expected that Su Liang would hand him over to the government! If he doesn't reveal the mastermind behind the scenes, he will definitely die! If you tell me, you will only die faster!

"Send him and his grandson to the government. Tell the governor what happened yesterday truthfully. If you need me to come and testify, just come and pass it on." Su Liang finished his words and turned to leave.

"General Su! Please show mercy and let my grandson go! He has done nothing wrong!" the old man shouted.

Su Liang looked indifferent, "My son has done nothing wrong. I don't think I have the obligation to protect a tool that kills me. You are a beast, but you still ask me to be a Bodhisattva? How ridiculous!"

The guards sent the grandfather and grandson who came to assassinate yesterday to report the case to the Xunyang City government with great fanfare. The prefect took it seriously when he heard that someone had assassinated Su Liang.

When word of what happened spread, the entire Xunyang City cast aside the vicious and shameless grandfather and grandson.

Su Liang saved the prefect's daughter-in-law and grandson, and now she is the head of the Ning family, the largest wealthy businessman in Xunyang City, a court official, and a celebrity in front of the emperor.

With so many factors combined, the prefect opened a court to hear the case that day.

The old man gritted his teeth and said that he had a grudge against Su Liang's grandfather and did not dare to tell the truth, thinking that at least he could save other family members. Little did he know that before he and his grandson set foot in Xunyang City, his whole family had been killed by Duanmu Sheng's people. As for his grandson, whether Su Liang lets him go or not, he will die. Unless Su Liang was specially taken in and protected, she couldn't find a reason to do that.

The master went to Ning Mansion specifically to inform Su Liang of the outcome of the case. The grandfather and grandson were both guilty of murder and were to be executed at a later date.

Su Liang did not mention the person behind the scenes to the government. The royal family wants to save face, so she won't make trouble, it won't be good for her. But as soon as Duanmu Yi learned about this, he should be able to imagine that it was the work of one of his good sons.

At nightfall, Su Liang was sitting alone in the study having dinner. It started to rain again outside the window, making it feel a little deserted for some reason.

Calculating the time, she felt that it was almost time for Gu Ling to arrive in the capital.

…

The capital of Qian Kingdom.

It is late summer, and thunderstorms have been frequent recently.

Gu Ling entered the city in the evening and returned to Su Mansion secretly, but there was no one inside.

Before they got married, Xing Yusheng and Lin Xueqing were looking forward to moving in with Su Liang and "Ningjing" as neighbors immediately after they got married. However, because of "Ningjing"'s trouble, Su Liang was not in the capital. They now live in Zhongxinhou Mansion to accompany Mrs. Xing. He planned to move here after Su Liang returned to Beijing.

Gu Ling went to Su Liang's room, found two books that she had not read yet, and then went to the back garden to look at the pomegranate tree he had planted before leaving with Su Liang.

Although no one watered it, the pomegranate tree survived because it was planted by the lake and it had rained recently. The leaves have fallen a lot and are somewhat sparse, but new leaves have grown, dotted with red pomegranate flowers.

It is impossible to eat pomegranates from the newly planted trees this year. We have to wait until next year.

On the way to the palace, Gu Ling passed by the Wan family and went in secretly. Seeing that Wan Hui and Zheng'er had not returned to the capital, he left silently.

The sound of wind and rain gave Gu Ling a good cover. He sneaked into the palace, only to find that Duanmu Sheng, who was originally locked in the cold palace, was not there.

So he left the palace again and went to the eldest prince's mansion.

…

A few days after the death of "Ning Jing", Duanmu Sheng, who had been locked up in the cold palace for a while, left the palace and returned to his eldest prince's mansion. Although he lived in seclusion, he played and sang every night behind closed doors and lived a happy life.

Tonight, Duanmu Sheng rested at the place of his favorite concubine, drinking and having fun, and now he was fast asleep.

The originally tightly closed window suddenly opened, shaking and colliding in the wind and rain.

The maid hurriedly went to close the window, but because of the strong wind, she couldn't close it for a while.

A noise woke Duanmu Sheng from his sleep. He sat up straight from the bed, his eyes widened and he broke out in a cold sweat, "Who? Who is it? Someone, come quickly!"

When the concubine saw that Duanmu Sheng was like a frightened bird, she also cowered and did not dare to move.

The guards guarding outside the courtyard gate rushed in and reported to Duanmu Sheng, but the window was blown open by the wind, so there was nothing abnormal.

Duanmu Sheng got out of bed with a livid face, put on his clothes casually and walked out. The guards quickly held an umbrella and waited for him to go out to the study.

The two little maids knelt on the ground, wiping the rainwater that had splashed in, and whispering.

"I don't know what's wrong with Your Highness?"

"My mother heard from Mrs. Qian in the kitchen that His Highness has been having nightmares lately, always shouting, 'Su Liang, don't kill me'."

"Su Liang? That Wu Zhuangyuan...how dare she kill His Highness?"

…

Duanmu Sheng went to the outer study and quickly called two of his subordinates, one tall and one short, both middle-aged men.

The tall man asked cautiously, "Your Highness has another nightmare?"

When Duanmu Sheng heard this, he gritted his teeth and said, "That bitch, as long as she doesn't die, I won't be able to live in peace!"

"My subordinates still believe that Su Liang would not dare to attack His Highness unless she no longer wants to live. The Emperor is protecting His Highness," the short man said.

Duanmu Sheng said sternly, "I don't care! I want her dead! I don't want to see her again! She is here to defeat me! I lost my position as the crown prince, my second brother's death, the Wan family lost their military power, all because of that bitch Isn’t there any news about what I asked you to do?”

The tall man's face was a little stiff, "I'll tell you, Your Highness, I got the news tonight that all the soldiers sent by my subordinates to assassinate Su Liang in Xunyang City failed."

Duanmu Sheng grabbed the paperweight and smashed it, "Trash!"

The tall man didn't dare to hide. He was hit in the chest. He groaned, leaned over to pick up the paperweight, and placed it respectfully on the table.

The short man was also asked soon. He was much calmer and looked quite confident, "Your Highness, the people sent by my subordinates went late and the news has not come back yet, but this time my subordinates have a careful plan, and Su Liang will never be able to escape." !”

When Gu Ling, who was under the rear window, heard this, his eyes narrowed!

"Hurry! Otherwise, when she returns to the capital, she won't have a chance to take action!" Duanmu Sheng said sternly.

The short man nodded respectfully, "I understand. According to the plan, my people took action yesterday. Perhaps Su Liang is dead now, but the news has not yet spread."

Duanmu Sheng sneered when he heard this, "If it's as you said, that would be great!"

The back window suddenly opened. Duanmu Sheng was startled and trembled. He cursed angrily and asked his subordinates to go down and close the window. The tall man ran over quickly.

Hearing the sound of heavy objects falling to the ground behind him, Duanmu Sheng turned around and saw the tall man falling to the ground. His expression changed drastically. Before he could make any sound, a piece of white silk was strangled around his neck!

The short man looked at Gu Ling, who appeared behind Duanmu Sheng like a ghost. He was about to call someone, but he saw Gu Ling stretched out a finger to signal him to be silent, otherwise Duanmu Sheng would be killed immediately.

The short man's face was gloomy and uncertain, and he didn't dare to express his anger.

"What's the plan you're talking about?" Gu Ling asked the short man. He was wearing a mask and a raincoat, and his voice was deep.

The short man hesitated for a moment, then saw that Duanmu Sheng was being strangled so hard that his eyes turned upward, and he had to confess. He hired a master, went to Xunyang City, and made a careful plan to assassinate Su Liang.

After hearing the short man's plan, Gu Ling's eyes turned cold. Without waiting for the short man to beg for mercy or giving Duanmu Sheng a chance to say a word, he immediately broke his neck!

The short man looked at Duanmu Sheng's head turned to one side and tilted, with a horrified look on his face, "You...who are you?" He immediately grabbed the door and ran away.

As soon as the short man stepped over with one foot, he was grabbed by the back of the neck and pulled back. With a click, his neck tilted and he died.

It was windy and rainy, and the window of the outer study room of the eldest prince's residence was open. The two corpses in the room had their necks twisted, and Duanmu Sheng was missing.

Gu Ling carried Duanmu Sheng's body out of the city, threw it into the rushing river in the rain, and then rushed towards Xunyang City as fast as possible...
