The Doctor’s Three-Time Marriage
Desired gift in return
"Poison master? Why do you ask?" Old Man Mu frowned.
Su Liang sighed, "You know, I'm a doctor. My medical skills are pretty good, but I don't know about poisons. An enemy wanted to harm me before, so I gave the poisoned food to my friends..."
Old Man Mu's eyes widened, "That friend of yours was poisoned to death?"
Su Liang shook his head, "It was almost. I asked someone to find the antidote, but I ended up owing a favor that I can't repay. It's hard to prevent this kind of thing. It's better to rely on others than to rely on yourself. I want to learn, but I lack a master."
When Old Man Mu heard this, he scratched his gray beard like withered grass and said, "I think I know someone." His tone was very uncertain.
"Why do you think we know each other?" Su Liang was confused.
Old Man Mu explained that he once had a serious alcohol problem. After a few years of drunkenness, he woke up every day and didn't know where he was. At that time, he made a friend. To be precise, he was a drinking buddy. When the two met for the first time, they had a fight over the last bottle of wine in the shop. If they didn't fight, they wouldn't know each other. Later, whenever they met, they would drink together and talk nonsense after drinking.
"One time we were talking about our respective abilities. I was not too drunk at the time, so I just said that I was a carpenter. He drunkenly said that he was the Poison King, and that the poison he made was unrivaled in the world." Old Man Mu shook his head, "I thought He was bragging. But the last time we met, a golden snake head popped out of his sleeve, which scared me so much that I almost got drunk. Later, I almost got sick and decided to quit drinking. I never saw him again. ”
When Su Liang heard that, he thought he was an expert and asked quickly, "What's that person's name? Where did you meet?"
Old Man Mu shook his head, "I don't know what his name is, but he calls himself Bai. I call him Lao Bai, and he calls me Lao Jin."
Su Liang held his forehead. Old Man Mu used a fake surname, and Old Man Bai might also be a fake one.
"It's in Qian Country." Old Man Mu said, "If you really want to learn poison techniques, I'll go find Lao Bai! Maybe he's still drinking in that place!"
Su Liang smiled slightly and said, "Would this be too much trouble for Master?"
Finally hearing Su Liang calling Master, seeing her well-behaved face, Lao Mu felt soft in his heart, but glared at her, "I don't want you to be poisoned to death. Without you, I will definitely be killed by that kid." So angry!"
"When does master plan to set off?" Su Liang kept smiling.
Old Man Mu said angrily, "That's it for today! I don't want to stay in this crappy place anyway!"
Su Liang saw that Old Mu was a little confused, but it was definitely not because of them, but probably because of Mu Yu. Although they decided not to care about the apprentice, they could already predict that Mu Yu would not end well if he turned to Situ Xie and could not give Situ Xie what he wanted.
After all, he raised him with his own hands. Old Mu still can't bear it. But as Su Liang said, if Old Mu takes Mu Yu away forcibly now, Mu Yu will not be able to understand him, and he will not be able to look at Mu Yu all his life. Yu, the fate of master and disciple is over, it’s time to let go.
"Then the next time we meet will be in Qian Country. I will prepare delicious food for Master then." Su Liang asked with a smile.
"You? Can you cook?" Old Man Mu expressed doubts.
"If you don't believe me, ask him." Su Liang pointed at Gu Ling.
Gu Ling nodded slightly, "It's not bad."
Su Liang gave Gu Ling a roll of his eyes, and Old Man Mu chuckled, "I'll be with you from now on! I'll go find Lao Bai and ask him to accept you as his disciple. This will be your meeting gift!"
"Master is so kind." Su Liang was in a happy mood. This was definitely an unexpected bonus. She didn't ask for a specific place and sent someone to look for him. She felt that if that man was really an expert, only Old Man Mu could find him and talk to him.
"Where's mine?" Gu Ling asked.
Old Mu stood up, raised his hand and slapped the back of Gu Ling's head, "What are you? There is no meeting gift for you! Take good care of your little junior sister! Otherwise, I will expel you from the school!" Before he finished speaking, he disappeared.
Su Liang was overjoyed to see Gu Ling deflated, "Master, you have today too."
Gu Ling straightened her hair and said calmly, "Are you very proud?"
Su Liang nodded, "It's not bad. You're really wronged by eating the late-night snacks I make that are pretty good every day. I declare that you won't be eating any more from today on! After all, we are engaged, and I don't have to keep trying to please you anymore."
Gu Ling shook his head, "No. I said that for your own good. Lao Mu is greedy at first sight. From now on, you will have to cook three meals a day with your own hands, and you will be tired."
Su Liang smiled slightly, "Thank you, God, for being so considerate of me. Then I won't do it from today on."
Gu Ling was silent for a moment and nodded gently, "That's fine. Although I wait for midnight snacks every day, I will be hungry if I don't eat, but I won't starve to death."
Su Liang was speechless, "Master, are you trying to be miserable?"
"It's you who made me picky about my taste." Gu Ling was quite confident.
Su Liang looked helpless, "Okay, okay. It was agreed at the beginning that you are strong enough to protect me, and I will make delicious food for you. It seems that I can only turn around after I defeat you in the year of the monkey."
…
Situ Xie has been in a bad mood recently. From some unknown time, everything he wanted to do began to go wrong.
He sent people to Yaocheng to spread the word about how powerful the craftsman "Zhao Yu" from Prince Yue's Mansion was, but after several days, Mu Yu's master did not arrive.
He had originally suspected that the concealed weapon fan was Su Liang's fault, but Su Liang's series of behaviors were not consistent with this guess. She didn't seem to care at all about whether the concealed weapon was concealed or not, and even looked quite naive many times.
Situ Xie didn't believe that Su Liang was an innocent girl, but since she came to Yaocheng, apart from demanding severe punishment for Situ Min who almost killed Lin Xie, at other times she seemed to have been specially ordered to treat Situ Han. , chasing men by the way.
Situ Xie's thoughts were too confused, so he told the matter to his most trusted eldest grandson, Situ Jing.
"Grandfather, maybe that fan did not come from Mu Yu's master, nor was it designed by Su Liang. Who really wants to sell the fan and lie that the descendants of the Mu family can sell it at a high price?" Situ Jing felt that Situ Xie was cheating. Things seem too complicated.
"What you said is not impossible, but if you think of things so simply, you will fall into other people's traps." Situ Xie said coldly.
Situ Jing's expression was slightly condensed, "Maybe the Yan Kingdom royal family also learned that the descendants of the Mu family are in Yaocheng, and they took action?"
Situ Xie's expression changed, "You are right to think of this. But where the fan came from is still a mystery. As long as we find out this matter, many mysteries will be solved."
"Grandpa, my grandson has an idea." Situ Jing said thoughtfully, "I want to know if Su Liang is here for the secret records of Mu's organization. Why not set up a trap to see if she makes any moves. This person in Yao City If you work carefully, you might be able to lure them out and catch them all in one fell swoop!"
After thinking for a long time, Situ Xie nodded slightly.
…
On this day, Situ Yao invited Su Liang to go to the teahouse to listen to music, and Su Liang happily went to the appointment.
"In a few days, I will call you cousin sister-in-law." Situ Yao smiled sweetly.
Su Liang sighed slightly, "I hope your cousin won't suddenly regret it."
Situ Yao quickly comforted her, "How could it be? Although my cousin doesn't like to interact with others, since he promised something, he will not break his promise. Moreover, it was my cousin's promise to the emperor's uncle. Marriage granted by imperial decree is not a child's play."
Su Liang nodded when he heard this, "I know, I should trust Gu Ling's character. But I'm still a little worried. Our emperor knows that he and I are getting married in Liang Kingdom, and he might send someone to stop it."
Situ Yao was stunned, "Why? Emperor Qian doesn't want you to be together?"
Su Liang shook his head, "That's not true. It's just that we are all from the Qian Kingdom after all. We come to the Liang Kingdom to do errands, and we should inform the emperor about things like canonization and marriage. But now that we are in such a hurry, I'm afraid the emperor will be suspicious of us."
Situ Yao frowned, "Will you? I will go back and ask my grandfather if he will send someone to Qianguo to explain. Uncle Huang really means well. You are getting married. As long as Uncle Huang's health is fine, you can do it at any time. Back home.”
Su Liang looked grateful, "That's great. After hearing what you said, I feel much more relaxed."
Situ Yao smiled and lowered her head to pour tea.
The window was open, and opposite the teahouse was the Zhenbao Pavilion. After a white-haired old man walked in, all the guests in the Zhenbao Pavilion left and closed the door in broad daylight.
"Go and find out what happened?" Situ Yao asked her maid.
Su Liang also asked Lonicera to go over and have a look.
As a result, not long after, the Zhenbao Pavilion opened its door again, but the white-haired old man did not come out. A shocking news spread quickly.
The family head of the Mu family came to the Zhenbao Pavilion and said that they would use the Zhenbao Pavilion to auction off a Mu family treasure in three days, and the one with the highest price would get it.
Subsequently, the news that Mu had a secret book of organs spread throughout Yaocheng.
Situ Yao laughed when she heard about it, "The hidden weapon fan that Doctor Su got a few days ago must be a genuine product of the Mu family."
Su Liang's lips curled up slightly, "Auction? I like it. No matter what the treasure is, I will get it."
Situ Yao nodded, "The most important thing that Divine Doctor Su needs is money. When the time comes to buy this treasure, you have to open my eyes."
"No problem." Su Liang responded quickly.
…
At night, Situ Xie's study.
"Grandfather, why not let the person pretending to be the head of the Mu family live in the inn openly and see who looks for him?" Situ Jing asked.
Situ Xie shook his head, "In that case, I should invite him to live in the house. Anyone can go find him."
Situ Jing was stunned for a moment, "Grandpa is right. But if this is the case, what will be sold at the auction three days later? With Su Liang's financial resources, if he bids for the auction items openly, it won't mean anything."
Situ Xie held half of the secret book of the organization in his hand, with a deep look in his eyes, "I'll just sell this."
Situ Jing's expression changed, "We cannot let Qian Guo and Yan Guo get this thing!"
Situ Xie shook his head slightly, "By now, I'm afraid that the Qian Kingdom and the Yan Kingdom already know that there are descendants of the Mu family in Yaocheng and are eyeing me. But I didn't get the complete secret records of the organization, only half of them, which are useless. . In this case, it’s better to sell it openly.”
Situ Jing's eyes lit up, "Whoever buys it will get a hot potato!" It's useless and will cause big trouble.
And with the secret record in hand, Situ Xie could make a copy and keep it for himself, sell the original copy, and divert his attention. Situ Han became more and more distrustful of him. If he knew that he had concealed the affairs of the Mu family's descendants, he would be more suspicious of his ulterior motives. If the upcoming auction goes well, it will allow Situ Xie to clear up his relationship with Mu.
…
It’s the twenty-fifth day of the twelfth lunar month.
That day, Su Liang went to give Situ Han acupuncture and then left the palace. Halfway through, it started to snow.
After Rendong drove, they went directly to Zhenbao Pavilion. The auction was today.
In the past three days, Zhenbao Pavilion has launched auction tickets, which are quite expensive and not affordable for ordinary people.
Su Liang asked Liandong to book the most expensive private room.
It was snowing now, and there were still many people outside Zhenbao Pavilion who couldn't get in but still wanted to watch the fun.
Su Liang brought Liandong in and saw that countless people from the Liang Kingdom's noble family had arrived. She had attended banquets before and had met most of them, including several princes.
Except for Situ Min, who was grounded, everyone else in the Yue Prince's Mansion also arrived.
Among the three best private rooms in the treasure attic, one was occupied by the prince Situ Chao and his younger brother, the other was occupied by Situ Xie and his children and grandchildren, and the other was bought by Su Liang.
Su Liang went upstairs and found that Gu Ling hadn't come yet.
She went to greet Situ Xie and asked about Gu Ling.
Situ Xie smiled, "I saw Ling'er today. He said he would come. Maybe he is still on the way."
"Lonicera, you go pick up Gu Hou." Su Liang ordered.
Lonicera took the order and left. Su Liang looked down at the hall, "Is it possible that that person won't show up today?"
Situ Xie smiled and said, "Just wait a little longer. I just don't know what kind of treasure will appear today?"
"I hope it's something more powerful than the fan last time." After Su Liang finished speaking, he went back to his private room.
After waiting for a while, he saw Lonicera following Gu Ling into the Treasure Pavilion.
As Su Liang watched, everyone's eyes instantly focused on Gu Ling. The moment he took off his cloak and hood, he looked like a snow lotus demon born from the snowy mountains, astonishingly beautiful.
Gu Ling's dark eyes raised slightly and saw Su Liang.
Su Liang smiled and waved to him, saying "Brother Ling" sweetly.
Situ Xie almost spit out the tea he just drank. He always felt that something was strange. Is Su Liang really such a silly person who turns into a fool when he falls in love?
Gu Ling paused slightly and looked away.
Lonicera: ...To be honest, her master's current appearance makes her very uncomfortable...
The doors and windows were open, and people outside could see Su Liang diligently taking off Gu Ling's cloak, pouring him tea and snacks, and smiling and talking to him all the time, but Gu Ling rarely spoke.
In short, the impression left by Su Liang is that he is very capable, has a cheerful and straightforward personality, and dares to love and hate. But Gu Ling, the flower of the high mountains, seems quite inhumane.
After Gu Ling arrived, no other guests came in again. After waiting for another two-quarters of an hour, many people were impatient and thought they had been cheated. When Gu Ling arrived, the door of Zhenbao Pavilion opened again, and a man wearing a bamboo hat walked in and brought in A gust of snow.
The shopkeeper of Zhenbao Pavilion came up to him, took a cloth bag from the man's hand, and the man turned and left.
Soon, people around Zhenbao Pavilion stared at the man who left, chasing him and disappearing into the snow.
The shopkeeper announced that it was the disciple of the head of the Mu family who had sent the item for today's auction, half of the legendary secret record of the Mu family's mechanism!
The whole place was shocked. Anyone who comes today, of course, knows what a treasure the secret records of the organization are.
Prince Situ Chao looked like he was determined to win and said, "Let's get started!"
Su Liang smiled, "Brother Ling, I'm afraid I can't compete with Prince Liang and King Yue. What should I do? I want to buy it and give it to you."
Gu Ling's pretty brows furrowed slightly and whispered, "Speak nicely." Su Liang was so cute today that Gu Ling wanted to hide her, not because of the title, but because she didn't want outsiders to see her smile.
Su Liang's expression became serious. When he heard the bidding started outside, he told Lonicera, "Go and increase the price. No matter how much it is, double it."
Although it was an auction with a lot of spectators, since they knew what it was and the first bidder was Prince Situ Chao's room, no one else had participated except Su Liang's follower Ling Dong.
No matter how much Situ Chao asked for, Su Liang would double it, highlighting a wealthy man who was not short of money and not afraid of trouble.
Situ Jing felt that things might deviate from their grandson's plan, so he went to Situ Xie and whispered, "What if the prince decides to buy the secret record regardless of the consequences..."
Situ Xie shook his head slightly and signaled to Situ Jing not to worry, "When the time comes, tell the prince that the half of the secret record is useless."
Situ Jing understood. Hearing that the price quickly reached a staggering figure, he felt that he could wait a little longer. Since Su Liang is so heroic, he will definitely not give up no matter how high the price is. The Yue Palace can take advantage of this opportunity to make a fortune, which is wonderful.
After Liao Dong shouted an astronomical number, Situ Xie winked at Situ Jing.
Situ Jing understood, got up and went next door to find Situ Chao.
At the same time, Situ Chao's subordinates had already added another ten thousand taels to the price called by Lonicera in accordance with his request.
Gu Ling put down the tea cup in her hand, and Su Liang stopped her before Lonicera bid again, "The tea is cold, go and add a new pot."
Gu Ling's ears were very good. When he heard some movement next door, he felt that Situ Chao should stop and signaled Su Liang to stop too.
Lonicera was stunned, "Aren't you going to continue bidding?"
Su Liang smiled, "No matter how rich I am, how can I be compared to the prince of a country? I can't empty my family's fortune just for a shabby book. Let's stop here."
Lonicera was very puzzled because she knew the real purpose of Duanmu Yi sending Su Liang here. But seeing that Su Liang decided to give up the secret record, he knew that she must have other plans, so he went out carrying the teapot.
The treasure pavilion suddenly became quiet.
After Situ Jing said two words in Situ Chao's ear, Situ Chao frowned, but still nodded, "I know." Then he called the subordinate who was bidding back and ordered, "No more."
The subordinate's face suddenly became ugly, "Your Highness, after I increased the price just now, there was no sound from the next door."
Situ Chao and Situ Jing only focused on whispering and did not pay attention. Only then did they realize something was wrong.
Situ Xie picked up the teacup and concealed the cold corners of his mouth.
Seeing that Su Liang had not raised the price, the shopkeeper of Zhenbao Pavilion confirmed it three times, and finally decided that half of the secret records would be given to Prince Situ Chao at a price that was scary to hear.
When the so-called secret records were delivered to Situ Chao, he found that every page was incomplete and he couldn't get the other half. What he bought was a pile of waste paper. He immediately became furious and ordered that the seller of the secret records must be caught. The descendants of the Mu family got the other half. As for the money, naturally I don’t plan to give it.
"It's such a pity." Su Liang said to Gu Ling when he passed by Situ Xie's private room, "I wanted to buy it to see what a wonderful machine diagram it was, but unfortunately, this is the Liang Kingdom. How could I win? Prince Situ? I have to give up."
Situ Xie's eyes flashed with coldness. It was clearly a well-planned plan, but why did Su Liang act like he knew everything and stopped bidding at such a coincidental time, just in time to trick Situ Chao!
Situ Xie's goal in this huge auction failed, and soon the whole world would know that the Mu family's secret records were obtained by the Liang royal family. Besides, no one would believe that the secret records were useless! It can be said that he shot himself in the foot!
Outside the Zhenbao Pavilion, Gu Ling said he wanted to take a walk. Su Liang immediately told Lonicera to go back first while she went shopping with Gu Ling.
"You said, I asked for the sharing of secret records on the grounds of the alliance between Qianliang and Qianliang. Will Situ Han agree?" Su Liang chuckled.
Gu Ling shook his head, "No."
"It doesn't matter." Su Liang was very calm, "Someone wanted to trick me, so I threw the hot potato into his grandson's hands. I think he should be very happy at this moment."
The two walked around for a while and went to the teahouse to rest.
Gu Ling took out a hairpin and gave it to Su Liang.
"Why did you give me another hairpin?" Su Liang asked after taking it. A very simple wooden hairpin.
"Sixteenth birthday gift." Gu Ling said.
Su Liang was stunned for a moment, "Last year it was my birthday on the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month, but this year you changed the date again for me."
Gu Ling shook his head, "I wasn't prepared before."
"Okay, thank you, I like it." Su Liang nodded, "But, it's just this hairpin. Master, you can make it in half an hour, okay? I think you forgot my birthday, although it's okay. relation."
How could he forget, counting the days to wait... Gu Ling did not say what was in his heart, but told Su Liang that the hairpin was a hidden weapon.
Su Liang's eyes lit up instantly. After Gu Ling told her how to use it, she couldn't put it down, "Master, you are really a genius." Not only can it launch hidden weapons, but it can also hide poisons and medicines or paper rolls to send messages. That folding fan is more exquisite and practical.
"Master, what do you want in return?" Su Liang asked.
After Gu Ling was silent for a moment, he said, "Don't you dislike me for not being able to laugh? You think of ways to make me laugh."
Su Liang blinked, "Although this task is very difficult, I will not give up. Master, just wait and take over!"
