In the evening, Lu Yu and Wan Hui came to pick up Zheng'er. They also tasted Su Liang's freshly fried lotus root, as well as recipes for fried lotus root and spicy and sour lotus root. Wanjia Restaurant can add new dishes.

Zheng'er lay on Lu Yu's shoulder, waving his little hand at Su Liang to say goodbye.

It wasn't until Su Liang was out of sight that Zheng'er turned around and said seriously to Wan Hui and Lu Yu, "Dad, mother, I was dreaming about Uncle Ning! Uncle Ning hugged me to sleep!"

She happened to pass by the courtyard where "Ning Jing" and Su Liang originally lived. It was dark inside. Wan Hui took a look and responded to Zheng'er's words, "Your uncle Ning must miss you too."

Zheng'er raised his chin slightly and said proudly, "Of course! Uncle Ning likes me the most!"

In Yuanming Pavilion, Gu Ling hung the newly knitted Chinese knot directly on a fixed window in Su Liang's room. It was different from the previous one, but still very delicate and beautiful.

Su Liang, who was grinding the medicinal ingredients, looked up and said, "It's so beautiful. But you have to make a price first. If I can't afford it, just take it."

"Hang it first, I'll think about it later." Gu Ling said, taking out another small and cute small Chinese knot and giving it to Su Liang, "a gift."

Su Liang put down the things in his hands, took the small Chinese knot, hung it with the rabbit purse around his waist, nodded and said, "Not bad. It is produced by a master, it must be a high-quality product. It would be better if it doesn't cost money."

After saying that, while Su Liang was busy making medicine, she mentioned to Gu Ling that Situ Yao might marry Duanmu Chen.

"I heard it." Gu Ling said. He was upstairs when Xing Yusheng and Lin Xueqing mentioned it.

"What do you think?" Su Liang asked.

Gu Ling shook his head slightly, "I don't want to read it."

Su Liang chuckled, "It has personality. Indeed, this kind of thing has nothing to do with us, so we don't care. I will go to the Prince's Mansion for a banquet tomorrow. You can solve the problem of eating by yourself."

In the middle of the night, Su Liang woke up from pain in her lower abdomen and found that her period had come early.

She got up, lit the lamp, and after cleaning up, she felt cold and felt even worse when lying down, so she wrapped herself in a quilt and sat on a chair, waiting for the discomfort to pass before going to sleep.

Every time like this, Su Liang felt that it was too difficult to be a woman. It would be great if men could also have children, and only those who planned to have children would have their periods, and those who didn't want to have children would not have them.

Su Liang, who was a little dazed, didn't hear the knock on the door. Gu Ling didn't know what happened, so he pushed the door open.

The candlelight was dim.

Su Liang's hair was loose and messy, and she was wrapped in a quilt. Only her palm-sized face was exposed. She was slightly pale and had a gloomy expression. When she saw Gu Ling come in, she said in a dull voice, "I'm fine. Did I disturb you?" Already?"

Gu Ling frowned, "The time has not come yet."

Su Liang: ...she was not surprised that Gu actually remembered her period, it was just a day, but at the moment she was a little irritable and didn't want to talk.

Seeing Gu Ling turn around and leave, then close the door, Su Liang closed her eyes and entered a state of relaxation. I vaguely heard the sound of someone coming downstairs, but didn't pay much attention.

After an unknown amount of time, the door opened again, and Gu Ling walked in with a basin of steaming water and placed it next to Su Liang.

Su Liang opened her eyes, a little stunned, and said, "Oh, let me soak my feet, thank you, God."

When her feet were immersed in the hot water, Su Liang sighed comfortably and looked up to find that Gu Ling was gone.

After a while, Gu Ling came in again, carrying a soup cup.

"Master, did you make me red date ginger sugar tea again?" Su Liang knew what it was without even looking.

The reason why I say it again is because it happened once last year. Su Liang still remembered that Gu Ling put a lot of brown sugar, which was very sweet.

"Yeah." Gu Ling put the soup cup on the table, opened the lid, and a sweet aroma hit his face.

Su Liang took the spoon, took a sip, and nodded, "Yes, the sugar is just right this time. In fact, you are very talented in cooking."

"No, I didn't." Gu Ling shook his head and sat down next to her. He looked down and saw Su Liang's white and tender feet in the basin. He immediately looked back and asked her if she needed a charcoal basin.

"That's not necessary." Su Liang shook his head, "I'll be suffocated to death. It's not cold, so it should be fine after a while."

A thin layer of sweat broke out on his forehead. Su Liang loosened the quilt, and Gu Ling took it and put it back on the bed.

She drank most of the cup of red dates, ginger and sugar tea, and felt that the dull pain in her lower abdomen had finally subsided. She put down the spoon and thanked Gu Ling again.

"Are you going out tomorrow?" Gu Ling asked.

Su Liang lay down on the bed and shook his head, "I won't go, I'm not feeling well."

She slept peacefully for the rest of the night, and when Su Liang got up, it was already bright outside.

During this special period, there was no need to run or practice martial arts. After Su Liang got up and washed up, she still felt a little heavy and didn't want to cook.

Back upstairs, I saw that Gu Ling, who didn't know when he went out or when he came back, had already laid out the breakfast he bought from outside, and it was still steaming.

"Then I'll leave all three meals today to the gods." Su Liang sat down and said.

"Is there no medicine to relieve it?" Gu Ling asked.

Su Liang nodded, "Of course. It's just a medicine that's 30% poisonous. I don't have severe menstrual cramps. I'll get over it after a while. It's said that it will be much better after giving birth to a child."

Gu Ling was puzzled, "Why?"

Su Liang's hand holding the chopsticks paused, a little embarrassed, "Actually, it's okay if you don't know this."

"But I want to know." Gu Ling said.

Su Liang thought that she had already told Gu Ling how the child was born, so there was nothing she couldn't say. "We'll talk about it after dinner."

Gu Ling nodded, and the topic was temporarily over.

After dinner, Gu Ling cleaned up, and Su Liang went back to the room and stood in front of the bookshelf, planning to pick two books to read in the next few days.

As a result, I looked around and found that there were no books that I had not read.

When Gu Ling came in, Su Liang complained, "Books here are also a scarce resource, which is really not conducive to social progress."

When Gu Ling heard this, he glanced at Su Liang's bookshelf. After a moment of silence, he said, "There is a library in the palace."

Su Liang's eyes lit up, "There must be a lot of books in it, right?"

Gu Ling shook his head, "I've never been in."

"It's not easy to enter that place." Su Liang sighed, "I can try to apply to the emperor to borrow books from the library. If I don't borrow them out, I can just read them inside. Just say that my medical skills still need to be improved. It’s also good for the royal family.”

"I'll go take a look tonight." Gu Ling said.

"It's a bit risky." Su Liang said. The palace is already heavily guarded, and the library must also be guarded day and night.

Gu Ling looked calm and said, "I haven't read any books either."

"Well, my dear, please be careful when the time comes. If it doesn't work, just give up. I can go to the palace to ask the emperor some other time." Su Liang said.

Gu Ling nodded and changed the subject without warning, "Why does it not hurt after giving birth?"

Su Liang almost choked on the warm water he had just taken in. He coughed twice, put down the tea cup, and discussed with Gu Ling, "Master, can you set the stage for what you want to say next? For example, you can say first that you have a question to ask me."

Gu Ling nodded lightly, "Well, you have a question to ask me."

Su Liang: ...on purpose, on purpose, right?

"Master, you are so funny, haha." Su Liang calmed down and thought of himself as a biology teacher and Gu Ling as a student, so he wouldn't feel embarrassed and told him about the problem.

Gu Ling listened without changing his expression, nodded and said, "I understand." With Su Liang's previous knowledge of physiology, it was not difficult for him to understand it now.

After saying that, Gu Ling went back to his room and brought something over to give to Su Liang.

Su Liang looked at the small wooden sign in his hand, speechless. There were three words engraved on it, "Forgive You", and the signature was a pattern in the shape of three water droplets.

No need to ask, this was naturally the price Gu Ling thought he would pay for the second Chinese knot that he sold to Su Liang after he compiled it.

Su Liang handed it to Gu Liang, "I don't want it anymore, you take it."

Gu Ling caught it and said, "Well, it's a deal. If anything makes you angry in the future, I will show you this card and you must forgive me unconditionally."

Su Liang hummed, "I'm angry, you can use it."

Gu Ling stood up and walked out, "If you don't feel well, don't get angry." After saying this, he disappeared.

Su Liang: ...This person is really amazing!

Suddenly she heard Lin Xueqing calling her from below. Su Liang opened the window and saw Xing Yusheng and Lin Xueqing standing downstairs. Judging from their clothes, they were all dressed up carefully.

"Sister Su, you won't forget the flower viewing party at the Prince's Mansion, right? It's time to go." Lin Xueqing urged.

Su Liang waved his hand downwards, "I'm not feeling well today, so I won't go. If you see the prince, tell him for me."

Lin Xueqing frowned, "Sister Su, are you feeling unwell? What's wrong?" She came up to see Su Liang.

Su Liang quickly stopped her, "It's okay, just rest for a few days and you'll be fine."

As both women, Lin Xueqing suddenly realized what Su Liang was talking about, and returned to Xing Yusheng, "Sister Su, please have a good rest, and let your husband help you when he sees the prince. Let's go! Let Ajun buy it at noon. I’ll bring you some food!”

Su Liang responded without refusing, and saw Lin Xueqing pulling Xing Yusheng away.

Xing Yusheng was confused, "Su Liang is a miracle doctor, how could he get sick?"

Lin Xueqing shook her head, "With a mortal body, what's so strange about getting sick? Stop asking and leave quickly!"

When Xing Yusheng arrived at the Prince's Mansion and saw Duanmu Chen, he told him that Su Liang was unwell and couldn't come today.

Duanmu Chen blurted out, "She has such good medical skills, how could she get sick? Does she not want to come?"

Xing Yusheng said seriously, "Your Highness, Su Liang is also a mortal body. It's nothing unusual to get sick. I don't know the specific details. I think it's not serious."

"Then let her have a good rest." Duanmu Chen didn't have that kind of concern for Su Liang, he still felt that she was hiding from peace, but since he didn't want to come, forget it, it's no big deal.

After hearing the report from his subordinates that Princess Yaoguang of Liang Kingdom had arrived, Duanmu Chen asked his servants to take Xing Yusheng and Lin Xueqing to the garden, and he went to greet Situ Yao.

Even Xing Yusheng had heard about it, so it was impossible for Duanmu Chen to know nothing. At first, Duanmu Chen was also surprised that Duanmu Yi planned to marry Situ Yao as the crown prince.

But he chose to accept Duanmu Yi's arrangement.

Firstly, he couldn't refuse Duanmuyi's decision; secondly, there was no need to refuse, and he didn't have a woman he particularly liked, so there was no such thing as someone else; thirdly, Duanmuchen believed that if a woman didn't have any special talents, , for example, like Su Liang, the main task is to carry on the family line, even if she is a princess, it is the same for him. As long as you are born with good looks and temperament, are in good health and listen to his words, you will be fine.

There is nothing to say about Situ Yao's background, appearance and temperament. If Situ Xie agrees to get married, it means that there is no problem with Situ Yao's body.

Duanmu Chen didn't understand Situ Yao's temperament except for the "obedient" aspect, and maybe he needed to get used to it. But as long as a princess who married far away and got married had a sound mind, she would not dare and could not go against the only husband she could rely on. Even if she has different intentions, as long as a woman is optimistic about her, what can she do?

This marriage has been inseparable for a long time. Duanmu Chen and Situ Yao met again today. To outsiders, they seemed to be a very good match, with a bit of ambiguity.

Situ Yao asked if Su Liang was here. Duanmu Chen said that Su Liang was not feeling well and would not come today. Situ Yao looked a little disappointed, "That's such a pity."

Lunch was bought and delivered by Qi Jun from Wanjia Restaurant. According to Lin Xueqing's instructions, it included meat, vegetables and hot soup. It was rich and light, and was enough for Su Liang and Gu Ling.

Su Liang took a nap in the afternoon, woke up, opened the window, and saw Gu Ling sitting by the lake fishing through the leaves.

"It's really idle." Su Liang finished complaining and found that he had no books to read and seemed to have nothing to do.

When Xing Yusheng and Lin Xueqing returned from the banquet at noon, they came to the Su Mansion first. Gu Ling had already left with a fat fish they had caught.

Xing Yusheng was sitting on the first floor, and Lin Xueqing went upstairs to see Su Liang. Seeing that the study door was closed, he didn't care.

"Sister Su, are you feeling better?" Lin Xueqing looked concerned.

Su Liang smiled, "Much better."

"I thought you martial arts practitioners wouldn't have any pain during menstruation." Lin Xueqing said with a smile.

Su Liang looked serious, "It would be better if you exercise daily, but it also depends on your personal physique."

"Yes, yes, I have exercised as you said. Even my husband can't beat me!" Lin Xueqing waved her fist.

After saying that, she noticed two red Chinese knots hanging in Su Liang's room. Lin Xueqing's eyes lit up, she stood up and went to look at them, "It's so beautiful! Sister Su, did you make this? It's so beautiful!"

Su Liang cursed in her heart: She didn't make it, she bought it. The price was outrageous, but she couldn't talk about it.

Therefore, Su Liang could only lie and claim that she did it. If you want to say that you bought it, you have to tell Lin Xueqing where to buy it.

"I like it so much, can you give me one?" Lin Xueqing looked at Su Liang longingly and asked.

Su Liang shook his head, "These two are not good." Mainly because he was afraid that if he gave it to Lin Xueqing, someone would be unhappy. After all, he made it up himself.

But if a good friend wants it, Su Liang still has a way, "It's actually quite simple. I'll write down the knitting steps for you later, and you can understand it as soon as you read it."

Lin Xueqing was actually a little surprised that Su Liang refused to give it to her. It wasn't that she had to give it to her, but she just felt that Su Liang was not so stingy. If it was really something she made herself...

But when Su Liang said he could teach her, Lin Xueqing didn't think much about it and immediately became interested, "Okay! There's no need to write this down. I'll come to you tomorrow with the silk thread and you tell me how to weave it!"

Su Liang chuckled lightly, "I originally wanted to write it down and give it to Yan Yu. If she is interested, she can ask the embroiderer at home to make it and sell it. I will give you a copy by the way."

"That's okay." Lin Xueqing nodded, "I'll come and pick it up tomorrow?"

Su Liang said yes.

Qi Jun bought dinner, and after everyone left, Gu Ling appeared, carrying a basin of milky white fish soup with a fragrant aroma. Of course it was the fish he caught in the afternoon.

In addition, Gu Ling gave Su Liang another piece of paper.

Su Liang took a look and saw that it was exactly the steps of a Chinese knot weaving method. The pattern and text were clear and clear.

"You don't need to pay for this, right?" Su Liang asked habitually.

Gu Ling shook his head, "No need."

"That's pretty much it." Su Liang put the piece of paper away and planned to give it to Lin Xueqing tomorrow. Yan Yu will wait until she goes to attend the wedding.

That night, Gu Ling sneaked into the palace secretly, but failed to steal books from the library. Because there is only one door to enter the library, there are experts watching, and all the windows are nailed inside and out and cannot be opened easily.

The next day, Su Liang asked to see Duanmu Yi and expressed her intention to come after entering the palace. To her surprise, Duanmu Yi was very talkative and readily agreed, giving her a token that allowed her to enter and exit the palace at a certain time during the day. Go to the library to borrow books, but they need to be returned in time after reading and must not be damaged.

When Su Liang left the palace, she carried a box of books on her back. It was heavy, but very happy.

After returning home, Su Liang shared the borrowed book with Gu Ling. Each of them took half of the book and exchanged it after reading.

Two days later, the matter between Situ Yao and Qin Qianguo was settled.

With the two marriages, at least on the surface, the Qian Kingdom and the Liang Kingdom were really going to form an alliance.

Su Liang felt that Yan Guo would definitely be unable to hold back. If Yan Guo took the initiative to provoke a war and Mu Ya was among the people leading the troops, Su Liang would be happy to resume his duties as a general and go south to meet her.

When he saw Xing Yusheng again, he brought news: Nian Jincheng had also been pardoned.

"When Nian Jincheng got into trouble, the crime was that he colluded with the rebel Gu Ling. Now that Gu Ling is fine, he will be fine too." Xing Yusheng smiled and said, "The emperor means that as long as Nian Jincheng comes back, he will be reinstated. I will still reuse him!”

Su Liang said calmly, "But after what happened before, maybe he will be disappointed with the royal family."

Xing Yusheng nodded, "It's not impossible. But there is a rumor that the emperor has found out where Nian Jincheng is and has sent someone to invite him!"
