Chapter 40

【Fake Qing Gao】

"It's delicious!"

Bai Xiaohu and Zhuzi looked at the freshly baked mooncakes eagerly, swallowing hard.

Both Aunt Bai and Mrs. Liu praised Su Liang's ingenuity and ingenuity, and the mooncakes he made were so beautiful that people couldn't bear to eat them.

"The ingenuity is Tranquility, he carved the model." Su Liang said, put two pieces of mooncakes into the plate, and handed them to Bai Xiaohu, "Be careful, eat it later."

"Hey!" Bai Xiaohu ran out with Zhuzi when Ning Jing appeared at the kitchen door.

Su Liang put another dish on a plate and handed it to him, "Be careful, eat it later."

Hearing the words, Ning Jing held his outstretched hand in the air for a moment, and suddenly remembered that Su Liang said earlier, "I thought you were like my son for a while", no matter how you listen, it seems like you are coaxing a child now...

Ning Jing sat down at the stone table in the courtyard, facing two thick-headed little brothers huddled together, smiling at him until his teeth could not see his eyes.

"Brother Ning, will he win the number one prize in the future?" Bai Xiaohu asked.

Ning Jing nodded, "I'll try."

"Sister Su Liang is not Brother Ning's daughter-in-law, can you marry me? I will grow up quickly! Then there will be delicious food every day!" Zhu Zi's face was extremely serious.

Ning Jing nodded, "Go and ask her."

Zhuzi really wanted to run to ask Su Liang, but was stopped by Bai Xiaohu, "Little brother, no, when you grow up, sister Su Liang will be old!"

Su Liang who brought tea: ...

Bai Xiaohu said again, "Brother Ning, when Sister Su Liang marries someone else, you won't have anything to eat!"

Ning Jing frowned slightly, and the two little guys had already put their heads on the plate and started to eat mooncakes.

……

Aunt Bai took half of the finished mooncakes and sent them away, before Su Liang asked Ning Jing, "What do you think about Su Xingzhe? Who is framing you?"

Ning Jing shook his head, "I don't know."

"It's not peaceful to live here. I think the killer in Yanyun Building and the frame-up this time are just the beginning. I really want to think about going to Yan Yu." Su Liang sighed softly.

Ning Jing was silent for a moment, "Leave the recipe before you leave."

"No problem." Su Liang nodded briskly, "You have to teach me lightness kung fu first. You will get half of the money when the time comes."

"Okay." Ning Jing nodded slightly.

Saying I'm afraid, it's not like that.But Su Liang felt that Ning Jing was too much trouble, and the suspected double identity would definitely bring double trouble.

Just say a little bit.Both Ning Jing and Gu Ling were hunted down by killers hired by Yanyun Building.

Maybe one night, Yan Sui will kill him.Ning Jing is good at martial arts, but Su Liang is very self-aware. She has no chance of winning in a fight with a real master in this world.Even practicing martial arts takes time to accumulate.

Su Liang chooses Ning Jing between Yan Shiba and Ning Jing, but she doesn't necessarily need a partner in fact.

As Ning Jing said before, Su Liang is rich and already knows a lot about the situation in Qian Country, so he can live by himself in another place.She said that going to Yan Yu was only a possibility.

There was noise from outside, Su Liang put down his teacup, "That family has come to make trouble."

Su Xingzhe publicly said that Ning Jing framed him.There is no basis for empty talk, but his family will not let it go.

When Su Liang opened the door, she saw Niu Pozi coming over crying and howling, supported by her two sons.

Seeing Su Liang, the old lady Niu had a fierce look in her eyes, she pushed her son away and was about to rush over, cursing, "You bastard! It's you who killed my son!"

Su Liang hid and said coldly, "It's useless to roll around in the village. If you are really wronged, go to the county government to beat the drums!" After saying that, he closed the door heavily.

Su Bo who came over after hearing the news scolded Su Xingzhe's brother to take his wife away, and then sighed deeply, "Did Xingzhe really go out at home the day before the exam?"

"It's at home!" Niu Pozi stared round her eyes, and swore to the sky, "If I tell lies, there will be thunder and thunder, and I will kill my children and grandchildren!"

Su Bo was taken aback by Niu Pozi's ruthlessness, and murmured in his heart.It seems that it is really tricky to make the old lady swear such a poisonous oath.

And including Su Bai, even the villagers who didn't like Su Xingzhe felt that he didn't have the guts or the ability to steal the examiner's sample paper.

After all, Su Bai regretted that Su Xingzhe had been studying hard for many years and ended up like this. Seeing his family's reluctance, he said, "Liang girl is right. What's the use of you making trouble here? That day when Xingzhe didn't go out, Mr. Ning and Liang The girl has never been out of the village, I saw it, don't bite people! You are going to the county government, and if you don't say anything else, just insist that Xingzhe is at home that day!"

Niu Pozi grabbed Su Bai's arm suddenly, "Go and testify! Say that you saw my son at home that day with your own eyes!"

But Su Bai really didn't meet Su Xingzhe that day, he didn't want to lie, and he didn't want to go into the muddy water.

After a lot of tugging and tugging, the Niu Pozi's family finally left.

Just as Su Bai was about to leave, the door opened again, and Su Liang brought him two catties of mooncakes.

This made Su Bai want to ask Ning Jing to help him "find out" about Su Xingzhe's situation, but he didn't say it in the end.

……

Early the next morning, the two drove out of the village.Passing by the entrance of the village, I heard someone say that Su Xingzhe's family is going to the county government today to beat the drums and complain about their grievances.

Su Liang drove the car, wearing the men's clothes he bought from the county last time, and carrying a young man with a jade face.

Although it was mentioned yesterday that she wanted to leave, it was not so fast, and she still had to learn some martial arts from Ning Jing.

As for the recipe for Ping Jing, I am already writing it.

The carriage went to the county seat and went to the house they had bought the day before.

He had only left for a few days, and the house was very clean. After tidying up, he picked a large basket of pomegranates and planned to bring them back to the village.

"So much... Do you want to drink pomegranate juice?" Su Liang suddenly suggested.

It's rare that Su Liang asked for Ning Jing's advice before cooking, and of course he would not refuse.

I didn't see what Su Liang did, Ning Jing waited for a quarter of an hour, and she brought a bowl of rose-red liquid, "There is no addition, try it!"

"Thank you." Ning Jing picked it up and took a sip. Although his facial features had already cultivated the calmness of standing still before the collapse of the mountain, he was still twisted by the acid, put it down, and pushed towards Su Liang, "You , have you tried it?"

Su Liang smiled happily, "I drank it in Turkey before!"

Ning Ding drank a glass of plain water, still feeling the sour taste in his throat, "You mean it."

"Don't you like to experience life? It would be nice to have honey." Su Liang knew that there was honey in this world, but it was rare, expensive, and not available in small places.

When it was almost time, Ning Jing went out and went to the restaurant where the county magistrate treats guests.

As soon as he entered the restaurant, someone greeted him immediately, "Young Master Ning, I'm just waiting for you!"

Ning Jing followed the man upstairs, and met all the current Bei'an County's scholars, as well as the newly appointed county magistrate Mu Wei.

Everyone's eyes were on Ning Jing, and he cupped his hands at Mu Bian, "My lord."

"Mr. Ning is both talented and beautiful, no wonder he has caught the eyes of the prince of Beijing." There was a faint smile on the corner of Mu Wei's lips.

The scholar who was supposed to be the only case-leader in Bei'an County looked at Ning Jing with hidden hostility.

After Ning Jing took his seat, the meeting ended.

After Mu Yan tasted a few dishes, he put down his chopsticks.After taking a sip of tea, he frowned and covered his mouth with a handkerchief and spit it out.At first, he said a few words on the scene, but then he gradually lost his expression.

The banquet soon broke up.

Ning Jing also felt that the food in this restaurant was not good. Fortunately, he had told Su Liang earlier that he would leave some food for him, and he would go home to eat later.

Just as Ning Jing was about to leave, the person who led him upstairs stopped him again, saying that Mu Yang invited him to Mingxiang Building for tea.

……

When Ning Jing entered the private room of Mingxiang Building, Mu Bing had already changed into a brocade robe.

The fresh and pleasant fragrance of tea wafted in the air. It was not the most expensive tea in Mingxianglou, but Mu Bian's own.

"Young Master Ning, sit down." Mu Di waved his hand and retreated.

Ning Jing sat down without touching the tea in front of him, "What orders does Master Mu have?"

"Mr. Ning, don't be nervous. I admire you very much, and I'm also very curious about your relationship with the prince of Beijing."

"It's just acquaintance, Mr. Xing is kind enough to help." Ning Jing said.

"Hehe." Mu Di changed the subject, "I heard Lingmei is a doctor?"

"Are you asking the eighth miss of the Ning family?" Ning Jing asked.

Mu Di shook his head, "Su Liang, Miss Su."

"She's a doctor." Tranquility replied.

"Do you know her past?" Mu Biao asked.

"She doesn't even know it herself," said Ning Jing.

Mu Bing narrowed his eyes slightly, "What do you mean?"

"Before I knew her, she was seriously injured and lost her memory," Ning Jing said.

Mu Peng snorted softly, "Can you practice medicine even if you have lost your memory?"

"She just forgot the past, she didn't become a fool." These were the original words of Su Liang when he hated Xing Yusheng.

"Do you believe it?" Mu Di asked with a smile.

Ning Jing nodded, "I believe."

"So, you don't know anything about her in the capital? That's good, you won't be implicated in her crimes." Mu Bian said, observing Ning Jing's expression, but there was still no change.

"What crime?" Ning Jing asked.

"Her grandfather, Su Yuanzhou, treated the second concubine, but killed her. Fearful of crime, he brought his children and grandchildren to hang himself on the beam. Unexpectedly, there was a granddaughter who was greedy for life and afraid of death, and ran away secretly." Mu Bing snorted coldly.

Ning Jing shook his head, "It's not her fault. There was no trial, no conviction, no punishment. She just refused to be forced to commit suicide. I don't think there's anything wrong with it. Master Mu thinks that Su Yuanzhou committed crimes, and the whole family should be punished?"

Mu Bing's face darkened, "That's the second concubine, and the eldest granddaughter of Prime Minister Xiao, who died at the hands of Su Yuanzhou! So what if he is connected with the nine clans?"

"If there is an imperial decree to punish the nine clans, Su Liang will become a fugitive. It's a theory. Now there is no conclusion, Master Mu, what do you think?" Ning Jing asked.

"Mr. Ning, as long as Su Liang is discovered by some people in the capital, he will surely die, and it will affect your future. Do you want to continue to protect her?" Mu Di stared at Ning Jing and asked.

Ning Jing shook his head, "I didn't defend her. It's just that Master Mu asked, and I answered. But I still don't know, Master Mu, what do you want to do?"

Mu Bian laughed, "This official is a little distantly related to Prime Minister Xiao's house, so I know the inside story, and I kindly remind you. This matter should not be made public. This is a drug, as long as you give Su Liang to me, I can help you Unblock it, so that your next road will be smoother."

"Okay." Ning Ping nodded in response.

Mu Bian watched Ning Jing leave, with a sneer on his face, "Fake Qing Gao."

When Ning Jing returned home, Su Liang was practicing sword under the pomegranate tree.

After practicing a set of swordsmanship smoothly, Su Liang asked Ning Jing, "How is it?"

Ning Jing shook his head, "Too slow."

"Yes!" Su Liang also felt that he needed to practice more, "How about the new county magistrate?"

Ning Ping took out the ecstasy drug that Mu Wei gave him, "He gave it to you."

Su Liang was confused, "What is it?"

"He asked me to stun you and send you to the capital to be executed," Ning Jing said.

Su Liang froze for a moment, "Could it be that I killed his whole family?"

After listening to Ning Jing's story, Su Liang felt that something was wrong, "Let's just assume that what he said is true. If you care so much about the Prime Minister's Mansion, how could you be just a county magistrate? He is really an imperial envoy from the capital?"

Ning Jing's thin lips parted lightly, "Fourth Prince, Duanmu Chen."

Su Liang was surprised, "Duanmu Si? Mu Di? Do you know him?"

Ning Jing shook his head, "Prime Minister Xiao is his grandfather, and the second concubine is his cousin."

"No wonder. He may think that no one in this small place knows him. But if he is here to investigate iron ore smuggling, he shouldn't stare at a small person like me." Su Liang said.

"Are you still leaving?" Ning Jing asked.

Su Liang sighed, "I said you were in trouble, but I didn't expect me to be in even greater trouble. What about the drug?"

"Don't worry. His seal has turned black, and there is a bloody disaster. If he dies within three days, he won't bother you again." Ning Jing said.
