Suddenly receiving the emperor's order to lead the army to Kasyapa City, Nian Jincheng refused to give up, but had no choice but to do so. He was not in a good mood along the way. He finally became happy when he saw Gu Ling and Su Liang, feeling like he was reunited with his relatives.
.
From beginning to end, he was a person who longed for family and disliked being alone.
However, Nian Jincheng did not expect that when he called Gu Ling with joy on his face, the response he got was: Gu Ling's eyes were cold and he closed the window to cut off his sight?!
Nian Jincheng felt confused. The last time was the day when Gu Ling and Su Liang got married, and he was accompanying Gu Ling on the way to the Su Mansion.
After giving the order for the team to continue walking, Nian Jincheng dismounted alone, entered the restaurant, and soon saw them.
Su Liang was smiling, while Gu Ling was expressionless.
"I came from Nanshan City and already know the general situation here." Nian Jincheng sat down and said, "If I had known this, I would not have actually brought troops to reinforce."
Su Liang asked, "Does the Emperor have any other instructions?"
Nian Jincheng shook his head and said, "No. The Emperor ordered me to come to Kasyapa City and follow your orders when I arrive. Since there is no fight, I am worried about Xiao Yu and want to go home early. Is that okay? With you here, nothing will happen."
"
"No." Gu Ling said.
Nian Jincheng was very sure this time. Gu Ling's tone was not kind and he seemed to have a problem with him? It was so strange. It was obviously a reunion of good friends. How could he offend him?
Su Liang patted Gu Ling's arm gently to express comfort.
Nian Jincheng felt even weirder and asked with an incomprehensible expression, "A Ling, what's wrong with you?"
"He's fine." Su Liang shook his head, "But you came all the way here, so it's not appropriate to go back right away. We are waiting for you and have something to discuss with you."
Nian Jincheng nodded, "You say."
Su Liang then mentioned that Gu Ling's master Nangong Lin invited her to go to the Yan Kingdom.
"I know Ah Ling's master. I haven't seen him for many years, but I didn't know he had a daughter." Nian Jincheng frowned, "Since you are rescuing people and you are Ah Ling's senior sister, you have to go. But the Emperor asked
You come to take charge of the overall situation, leave rashly, or go to Yan country, it's hard to explain."
"I have already thought about how to explain to the emperor." Su Liang said, "General Yuan has passed away. Chen Yun was injured and poisoned before, and he has just found his younger brother. He will have to take care of his family recently. You will stay in Kasyapa Town for the time being.
, to prevent Yan Guo from causing trouble again, and wait until we come back."
Nian Jincheng originally nodded slightly, until he heard the last sentence and was stunned for a moment, "You guys? Just go. What are you going to do?"
If Gu Ling's eyes were like knives, Nian Jincheng would have been beaten long ago...
Su Liang patted Gu Ling's arm again, smiled and said to Nian Jincheng, "Of course he is going to protect me. Going to Yan Country at this time is still risky."
"Since Master A-Ling is here, I think he should stay in Kasyapa City so that the emperor can give an explanation easily." Nian Jincheng looked serious.
"His master has already left early." Su Liang said.
Nian Jincheng glanced at Gu Ling and coughed lightly, "I understand. When I arrive, you will set off to save people in Yan country. In this case, why does A Ling look like he wants to slap me to death?"
Su Liang pulled Gu Ling to stand up and said with a chuckle, "It's an illusion. In fact, he is very happy to see you." You can't say that someone is dissatisfied with his desires...
Nian Jincheng: ...His feeling is correct, but what's even more strange is that what happened, Gu Ling didn't tell, and even Su Liang was covering it up?
The three of them finished talking about business and left together, with Su Liang in front and Nian Jincheng at the end.
Just when Su Liang was about to walk out, he heard Nian Jincheng ask Gu Ling in a low voice, "The wedding was interrupted that day, but fortunately, things have calmed down here for two or three days. You should consummate the marriage."
Alright?"
Su Liang knew that Nian Jincheng and Yan Yu had always been concerned about the progress of her relationship with Gu Ling, and fully understood Nian Jincheng's mentality of asking about this matter after meeting his brothers, because a long time ago, Nian Jincheng wanted Gu Ling to hurry up and talk to Su Liang.
After settling down, I am afraid of long nights and many dreams. After having a wedding ceremony, it is just in the name of husband and wife. Only when they consummate the marriage can they truly become husband and wife.
But at this moment, when Nian Jincheng said this to Gu Ling, it was like adding another pot of oil to the fire.
Su Liang turned around and saw a smooth parabola passing through his eyes. Nian Jincheng hit the open window and flew out...
Gu Ling reached out and held Su Liang's waist, "Let's go."
Outside, Nian Jincheng landed firmly, looked at the stunned onlookers, calmed down and said, "I have something important to do!" Hua Luo jumped onto the horse next to him, left quickly, and got rid of the embarrassing situation.
The moment he was kicked out, Nian Jincheng was extremely clear-headed and finally guessed what was going on: It had only been two or three days since the war subsided. Could it be that Gu Ling had planned to consummate the marriage with Su Liang tonight? Because he was here, and they
I have to leave for Yan Country today...
No wonder Su Liang found it funny and comforted Gu Ling.
If this is the case, Nian Jincheng fully understands and accepts that it is all his fault that Gu Ling wanted to shoot him to death. He came early and it was definitely not intentional. God knows that he had long wanted Gu Ling and Su Liang to be together.
Already.
…
"Master, don't be like this." Su Liang said with a smile, "I don't blame Xiaonian, he doesn't know. But maybe he can guess it now."
Gu Ling said in a low voice, "I'm very disappointed."
"Don't think about that. Go back and clean up quickly, and then we'll set off." Su Liang said.
In fact, if they really have to wait until tomorrow before setting off, Nangong Lin won't know as long as they don't tell them.
But there are priorities.
You have to wait for Nian Jincheng to come over before you can leave. This is not only a promise to Nangong Lin, but also the safest choice.
If Nian Jincheng comes tomorrow and has nothing to do tonight, both of them will be happy to do whatever they want.
But the current situation is, do they have to stay in Kasyapa City for an extra night just to consummate their marriage?
There is no need to discuss, both of them know the answer, no.
"Actually, this is okay." Su Liang whispered, "If we consummate our relationship tonight and go on a long trip tomorrow, you may be even more unhappy next time."
To be honest, once you start eating meat, it's difficult to control it. But they have to rush to save people, time is urgent, and they can't delay any more. Although they don't know Nangong Qian, since they agreed to Nangong Lin, they should do their best.
"I know." Gu Ling sighed slightly, "I want to pull you to a corner where no one can see you and kiss you right now."
Su Liang:......
…
Returning to Lin's Mansion, I met Lin Wei who was about to go out.
"Hey, you guys came back just in time! Gu Xiaoling, your best friend Nian Jincheng has arrived!" Lin Wei said with a smile.
"We have met." Su Liang said to Lin Wei, "Next, you, Chen Yun and Nian Jincheng will guard Kasyapa City."
Lin Wei was stunned, "The emperor wants you two to return to Beijing? So soon?"
Su Liang shook his head, "I'm not going back to Beijing. I have other things to deal with, so I will come back here again."
Lin Wei's expression turned serious, "Secret mission? Then I won't ask. Are you leaving today? There will be a banquet at home tonight, and Chen Beibei's family has been invited. They said they want to thank you very much."
"We simply packed up and left." Su Liang said, "I told them there was no need to be polite, and I didn't do anything. By the way, Ling Yun's father who just passed away was the one who abducted him back then?"
Lin Wei nodded, "Yes. That man was really hateful. His child was dead. By chance, he saw that Chen Xiao looked similar to his son when he was young, so he stole him away and ran to the south to live. Fortunately, that man
She wanted to have a son, so she didn't let Chen Xiao suffer and let him study seriously. When he was about to die of illness, his conscience found out and he wanted to give Chen Xiao back and took him to Xuanbei City to find his family, but he didn't get out much.
It’s not possible to go too far.”
"How did you know that his child was dead?" Su Liang was puzzled.
"He knew that the deadline was approaching, so he left a letter to Chen Xiao, explaining the whole story and asking Chen Xiao not to hate him. Probably he had asked about Chen Yun's name and knew that he was a military commander, so he thought that Chen Xiao would have someone back home.
With blessing, I can live a better life." Lin Xian said angrily, "He is no longer alone after robbing other people's children. He has brought so many years of pain to Chen Yun's family, so it would be easier for him to die!"
Su Liang sighed slightly, "I understand. You go find Nian Jincheng and familiarize him with the situation in Kasyapa City. We will set off later."
"So urgent?" Lin Qian shook his head, "Okay, okay, you guys can go do your business. Don't worry, Gu Xiaoling, I will entertain your brother well!"
Gu Ling's expression was indifferent, "No need, I broke up with him."
Lin Xin was stunned for a moment. Su Liang had already pulled Gu Ling away.
…
When Lin Wei found Nian Jincheng, Chen Yun was telling him about the situation here.
"Why did you offend Gu Xiaoling?" Lin Wei asked Nian Jincheng curiously, "He said he broke up with you and asked me not to be nice to you."
Nian Jincheng held his head and said, "I did do something sorry for him."
Lin Wei was even more puzzled, "You don't like Su Xiaoliang, what can you do to feel sorry for him?"
Nian Jincheng coughed slightly, "I can't say. But my best friend is no longer him, but Su Liang."
Lin Wei then smiled, "Then I'll treat you well for Su Xiaoliang's sake!"
…
Su Liang and Gu Ling packed their luggage. She also made a lot of disguise medicine and took them with her on the way.
"Okay, let's go." Su Liang took inventory and brought everything.
As soon as he stood up, he was pulled in by Gu Ling for a long kiss.
"Master, I need to remind you that you must try to avoid being intimate with me." Su Liang's face turned red and she poked Gu Ling's chest with her finger.
Gu Ling's eyes were deep, "Don't you want to?"
Su Liang coughed slightly, "We are in love now, of course I want to...but after all, there are important things."
"Okay." A smile flashed in Gu Ling's eyes, "If you don't admit it, I will kiss you until you admit it."
Su Liang quickly pushed Gu Ling away, "I admit it. Let's go!"
Without wasting any time, the dry food Lin Wei asked his servants to prepare arrived just in time.
The south gate of Kasyapa City is still closed, and Su Liang doesn't want people to know that she has left. Maybe the Yan Kingdom will find out later, but the later the better.
The two of them disguised themselves, secretly left the city of Kasyapa, and entered the territory of Yan Kingdom at midnight that day.
Su Liang's appearance looked a bit like Nian Jincheng's, which made Gu Ling speechless. Su Liang said seriously that it was for his own good.
Of course Gu Ling knew what she meant. Looking at Xiao Nian Jincheng's face, his only desire was to hit someone...
…
Kasyapa City.
It was already late when the four members of the Chen family returned from Lin Mansion.
Chen Xiao, who used to be called Lingyun but has now returned to his real name, has adapted to his new identity very quickly. He is well-educated and knows etiquette, is well-behaved and sensible in front of Chen's father and mother, is gracious when visiting the Lin family, and admires his brother Chen Yun very much.
As for the adoptive father who abducted him back then, Chen Xiao said that he couldn't hate him, but he would no longer miss him as his father.
After entering Chen's house, Chen's father and Chen's mother walked around Chen Xiao on the left and right, as if they had endless things to say.
Chen Yun fell behind alone. He slowed down, and the distance between him and them became wider and wider, quietly watching them getting further and further away from his sight.
Suddenly, Chen Xiao stopped and turned around and called him, "Brother!"
"Your elder brother must be thinking about business, don't disturb him." Chen Yun's mother's gentle voice reached Chen Yun's ears, and the pace he had just quickened slowed down again.
Finally, the three people disappeared from his sight, and he slowly walked along the path and entered the garden.
After sitting alone by the pond for a long time, Chen Yun heard footsteps coming from behind. His eyes narrowed and his hand had already tightened his grip on the hilt of the sword.
"it's me."
A tall and thin figure appeared in the moonlight. Chen Yun was stunned for a moment and frowned, "I thought the master had left long ago."
If Su Liang and Gu Ling were here, they would be able to recognize at a glance that the "master" in Chen Yun's mouth is Gu Ling's master Nangong Lin.
Nangong Lin came over and patted Chen Yun on the shoulder, "I came to Kasyapa City and it's so close. How could I not come to see you? It's just that you didn't want me to tell Gu Ling your true identity.
We can only avoid them."
"Their departure today has something to do with Master, right?" Chen Yun asked.
Nangong Lin nodded, "Qian'er is very ill. I made a special trip to ask Su Liang to treat her."
Chen Yun frowned, "Didn't Master say last time that her health was getting better?"
Nangong Lin sighed deeply, "That happened last year. She felt a little bad after the New Year, and I heard that Gu Ling and Su Liang were getting married, so I came."
"I haven't seen her yet..." Chen Yun said in a deep voice.
Nangong Lin sighed again, "I've always wanted to reunite you brothers and sisters, but you can't leave and she can't move. After seeing you, I'm leaving. I can't delay any longer, lest Gu Ling and Su Liang become suspicious. They both
A very smart man, even if I taught Gu Ling martial arts, he didn't completely trust me. Are you okay?"
Chen Yun looked at the dark water and smiled to himself, "What is good?"
"I have said it many times, and now I ask you again. You can leave with me and get rid of Situ Xie's control. Are you still unwilling?" Nangong Lin asked with a frown.
"Leave? Where to go?" Chen Yun asked softly.
Nangong Lin sighed, "You can go to Yan Kingdom, or wherever you go, and you can be with Qian'er. Don't you want to see her? You brothers and sisters were born together, and you were taken away by Situ Xie. Your mother gave Qian'er to me.
Gone. I swore to your mother that I would find you and protect you."
"I want to, but I can't now." Chen Yun shook his head, "Situ Xie is my grandfather, and Situ Han is my biological father. I still don't know what purpose Situ Xie wants to use me for. He suddenly let Chen Xiao come back, but
The real Chen Yun is still in his hands."
Nangong Lin shook his head repeatedly, "None of this was caused by you. You haven't done anything to regret the Chen family. Why do you need to embarrass yourself like this?"
Chen Yun's eyes dimmed slightly, "Master, there is no need to say any more. The Chen family has been kind to me in raising me, and I will not leave until the real Chen Yun comes back."
"What if Situ Xie asked you to do something that betrayed the state of Qian? What if he asked you to do something that was harmful to nature? Would you also listen to him?" Nangong Lin asked.
Chen Yun didn't seem to hear Nangong Lin's question, and suddenly said, "I really envy Gu Ling."
Nangong Lin was stunned for a moment, "Don't you think you also like Su Liang?"
Chen Yun seemed to be dazed for a moment, and his eyes quickly returned to calmness, "Master thinks too much, I just envy him for not being controlled by Situ Xie."
"If I told him that your mother gave birth to twins who were twins, and you were supposed to be brothers, he would definitely help you," Nangong Lin said.
"It's time for Master to leave." Chen Yun turned around and said, "Please tell my sister to take care of yourself. I will definitely go to see her."
