Chapter 61 061. Nian Jincheng's Question (Second Update)
The day after leaving the capital.

During the break, Nian Li asked, "The emperor won't let the young master stay in the north for too long, right?"

Nian Jincheng put down the kettle, raised his head slightly, and looked at the rising sun in the eastern sky. A faint smile appeared on his handsome and resolute side face, which disappeared in an instant, "There is nothing wrong with guarding the mine."

Nian Li frowned, "Isn't your son determined to be a general and gallop across the battlefield?"

Nian Jincheng drank two more sips of water in silence, sighed softly, "Yes!"

But the enthusiasm in his youth has become more and more cold in the past two years.

He is busy, doing business in the eyes of outsiders, he is very strict with himself, and strives for perfection in everything, and he has received many praises for this.But whenever I am alone, I still feel empty in my heart.

He didn't know more and more why he did those things.It seems that no matter how hard he tries, no one cares...

Unexpectedly, he remembered that day when he met Xing Yusheng for the first time in the Qin Mansion, he said with a slight sarcasm that the rumored Gu Shizi had only one friend, and that was Nian Jincheng.

Ever since the incident happened in the Gu family, Nian Jincheng was ordered by the emperor to hunt down and kill Gu Ling, and many people ridiculed him for his hypocrisy behind his back.Xing Yusheng's words are nothing at all, he will take the initiative to find Nian Jincheng again, which shows that he does not think that Nian Jincheng really wants to kill Gu Ling.

No matter how ugly it was, Nian Jincheng had heard it, and it came from his family.His eldest brother, and even the only sister he thought cared about him, Nian Ruxue.

Nian Jinxing naturally didn't care about Gu Ling's life or death, but he would not let go of every opportunity to ridicule and humiliate Nian Jincheng.

But facing Xing Yusheng that day, Nian Jincheng wanted to say something, but he didn't dare to say it, "Gu Ling is also my only friend."

It was he who took the initiative to ask for orders to hunt down and kill Gu Ling. He traveled thousands of miles and found nothing.

But no one knew that that night, in Sujia Village, the emperor's confidant Eunuch Han secretly watched his every move, and he was ready to kill the old eunuch if he sensed something was wrong.

Of course Nian Jincheng knew that the one in the Su family village was not the real Ning Jing, because the seventh son of the Ning family in Xunyang had died a long time ago, right in front of him, and even buried it with his own hands...

……

Sujia Village.

Ning Jing was cleaning and polishing a pair of slender knives.

This is the ninth weapon that he and Su Liang "picked up" from the killer of Yanyun Building recently.

The first is the long sword of the landlord Yansui, which is hung in the tranquility room.

After wiping the two knives clean, Ning Jing took them to Su Liang, "Try it."

Su Liang put down the medical book in his hand, held a handful in one hand, and waved it a few times, "It's not very coordinated."

She is right-handed and has never tried two-handed weapons. She got interested and asked Ning Ping to go out and practice.

The original owner of the double knives died in the hands of Su Liang last night. She had fought with that man before, and she still remembered some moves.

But relying on memory imitation, it is inevitable to make mistakes and expose many flaws.

Ning Ping patiently feeds Su Liang with moves and enlightens her during sparring.

At first he played very slowly, and even after Su Liang made a move, he felt that the posture just now was not right, so he regretted it and started all over again.

Afterwards, she gradually became more proficient, and her speed became faster. Su Liang felt that it was very easy to use the two knives.And the power of both hands holding a lethal weapon is stronger than that of a single weapon.

After the beating, Su Liang hid the two knives in her calf, one on each side, just right, and replaced the original ordinary dagger as her new weapon.

"Isn't everyone in Yanyun Building a great master?" Su Liang asked, "The later people are not as strong as the previous ones. If at the end, the little ones also come to grab the owner's finger, then it's really fatal. "

The feeling of being tense every night, not daring to sleep soundly, waiting for the killer to come, was exciting at first, but now Su Liang has a headache.caused by lack of sleep.

Ning Jing shook his head, "There are many masters, but there are only a few who must grab the finger."

Those who are truly powerful and shrewd will not stare at Mo Yu, a dead thing.

Although this is the symbol of the so-called landlord, the rules are set by man and can naturally be changed. As long as the fist is hard enough, the means are ruthless enough, and the situation can be controlled, one can become the new ruler of Yanyun Tower.

Even Yan Sui died in Sujia Village. There may not be anyone stronger than Yan Sui in Yan Yun Building, but such a person does not need this finger pull at all.

As for the killer who needs to pull the finger, if he really comes to grab the finger, it is a stupid act of sending to death beyond his control.

"So, except for Yan Sui, the really powerful people in Yanyun Tower didn't come, and they won't come?" Su Liang asked.

Ning Jing nodded.

Su Liang sighed slightly, "I was thinking too much, thinking that the one who came to Yanyun Building recently was the most powerful. It turns out that the strength is not enough, and the brain is not enough."

But it was just right for her to practice.

If a master of Yan Sui's level really appeared, Su Liang could only hide or run for his life.

Thinking of this, she leaned over and pulled out the two sabers again, pointing at Ning Jing, "I'm still far behind, keep practicing!"

……

As the days passed day by day, Su Liang's strength improved rapidly, not by leaps and bounds.

She thinks most of the credit goes to having a wonderful master peace.

High intensity and high efficiency, professional one-to-one guidance, customized "tuning", strict but patient.

Su Liang's physical foundation after time travel is mediocre, but his talent, understanding, hard work and hard work are all top-notch, and his body can be transformed.

After chatting that day, people from Yanyun Tower came again, and they didn't show up again after that.

Counting Yan Sui, Ning Jing and Su Liang killed [-] killers in Yanyun Building and seized [-] weapons.

Yan Sui's long sword belonged to Ning Jing, the two swords belonged to Su Liang, and the other weapons were used by the two for daily sparring.

After entering late September, the weather became colder and colder.

Early this morning, Ning Jing drove to the county town to purchase medicinal materials for Su Liang. He also bought some fresh ingredients, a sack of silver charcoal, and went to Mingxiang Building to buy two boxes of sweet-scented osmanthus cakes. When he drove back home, The sun was setting.

During dinner, Su Liang asked Ning Jing again, and planned to leave for the provincial capital someday.

The township examination starts on October [-]th and lasts for three consecutive days.

Last time I mentioned it, Ning Jing said to leave five days earlier, but Su Liang felt that it was too rushed, and if there was a slight delay on the way, he would miss the exam.

"The eighth day of October." Ning Jing said.

"The fifth day?" Su Liang suggested, "We can walk slowly on the way and see the scenery."

"Okay." Ning Jing nodded.

"There are still ten days." Su Liang calculated, "I asked Hu Er to help find someone to make a carriage, and it should be delivered soon. At that time, we will take turns to drive the carriage, read books while riding, and practice martial arts while resting. Don't delay anything."

When going out for a long trip, Su Liang planned to take all her books with her, as well as bedding and winter clothes. There was a lot of luggage, and the original carriage at home was too small.

It happened that Hu Er came to visit a few days ago, and when Su Liang mentioned the carriage, he said that he knew an old craftsman who was good at making carriages.

Su Liang drew a diagram of the internal structure of the carriage according to his own ideas, and asked Hu Ernao to help find that craftsman to make it. The materials must be the best, and the price is not a problem.

The shoes and clothes that Mrs. Bai asked to help make are also ready.

"I've never seen you read books related to the imperial examination, so confident?" Su Liang asked Ning Jing.

Every day he teaches Su Liang to practice martial arts, cooks the fire, does laundry and cleans up, and spends a lot of time in the carpentry room. Even if he reads books, Su Liang has read the medical books.

"I don't know what to test, and I have nothing to prepare for." Ning Jing said.

Su Liang coughed lightly, "If you say something like this, you will be beaten."

But Su Liang never thought about the possibility of failing the Ningping Township Examination and not going to the capital.

Because Ning Jing is like a great god in her eyes, there are things he doesn't know, but as long as he is interested and wants to learn what he wants to do, he can study to a superb level.

"Chang'an hasn't been here for several days, I don't know how the case is going." Su Liang said casually.

Ning Jing didn't care about Mu Bian and Chang'an at all, and asked Su Liang what kind of pattern he wanted to engrave on the pen holder.

The reason is that the day before yesterday Su Liang saw that there was an extra pen holder on the peace table, it was made of wood, and the relief landscape was quite interesting.

Su Liang asked Ning Jing if he could make one for her, and Ning Jing agreed, provided that he had the right to order food that day.

Su Liang went back to her room and carefully sketched the appearance of her previous home.That was the mountain villa left by her grandma, and she would live there every time she was on vacation.

After handing it over to Ning Jing, he looked at it and asked Su Liang, "Your previous home?"

Su Liang nodded, "Sometimes I think you can read minds."

……

Last night it was said that Chang'an and Mu Wei hadn't shown up recently, but Chang'an came early the next morning.

"Master is going to visit the mine today, let me ask Miss Su if she wants to go?" Chang An asked.

Su Liang originally thought that no matter what happened in Chang'an, she would push it as soon as she could, but she didn't expect that it was Mu Yang who invited her to visit the mine together.

This is what Su Liang wanted to go for a long time, but had no chance.

Dang even agreed, and called it Tranquility.

Ning Jing was in the room, holding a pen holder in his hand, and was concentrating on carving, without raising his head when he heard the sound, "I won't go."

In broad daylight, when Su Liang went out, Ning Jing didn't intend to follow.He secretly went to the mine to deal with Su Daqiang's family.

"Alright. I shouldn't be back at noon. Take a piece of meat and go to Xiaohu's house for dinner." After Su Liang finished speaking, Chang An asked Chang An to wait. I got off my horse and went out.

The two left Sujia Village, Su Liang asked Chang'an, "Where is your master?"

"Master is waiting in the town, let's go quickly." Chang An said.

Mu Biao's going to the mine today was not on a whim, but he decided to call Su Liang after he arrived in Feiyan Town.

Su Liang knew that Mu Yan must have asked for something when he took the initiative to show his favor, but since he didn't say it clearly at the beginning, no matter what happened later, there was room for negotiation.

The two rode their horses and rushed to the town. Mu Yan was a little impatient to wait, but he was still polite to Su Liang, "Miss Su, would you like to ride with me? Riding is too tiring."

"Today's weather is fine, I rarely ride a horse, so I won't bother Lord Mu." Su Liang declined.

Mu Di didn't insist, he lowered the curtain and gave the order to set off.

At this time, Nian Jincheng's master and servant, who came from the capital day and night, had already arrived in Bei'an County, but when they went to the county government, they were told that Mu Bing had gone to the mine today.

Nian Jincheng was sent to guard the mine, so he left the county town with his entourage, Nian Li, and headed towards the mine.

Passing through Feiyan Town on the way, Nian Li mentioned that Xing Yusheng had asked Nian Jincheng.

Nian Jincheng glanced in the direction of Sujia Village, without stopping, "Meet the Fourth Prince first, arrange business, and then go to deliver things to Prince Xing."

……

At noon, the team was at the gate of Wu's house, which was seized, and the mine was very close.

Mu Biao got out of the car and wanted to visit Wu's house and have lunch here before going to the mine.

Su Liang followed into the Wu family mansion.

The courtyard that used to be carved with beams and painted buildings can now see traces of excavation everywhere. Most of the walls have been demolished, and the houses have also been demolished. It is dilapidated and a mess.

"Miss Su, are you interested in treasure hunting?" Mu Biao asked.

Su Liang shook his head, "If there is a treasure in this ghost place, Master Mu would have found it long ago."

Mu Bing sighed, "I'm starting to wonder if there is really a ledger."

Su Liang didn't answer.

The servants set up tables, chairs and refreshments by the lake in the back garden.After all, he is the fourth prince, no matter where he goes, he still acts like a nobleman.

Su Liang sat down, turned around and saw six fallen willow trees not far away...

"Lord Mu really knows where to choose." Su Liang looked away.

Mu Yang chuckled, "After all, Miss Su and I joined forces to seek justice for them, what are you afraid of?" He raised his glass, "It's time to invite Miss Su to drink."

"I just saved myself, I don't dare to take credit for it." After Su Liang finished speaking, he took a sip of the wine, which was a bit spicy.She hardly drank alcohol in her previous life. After coming here, she had a drink with Ning Jing. She didn't hate it, and she didn't like it very much. It wasn't something she would take the initiative to drink.

"It's because you are too polite, always guarding against me, afraid that I will plot against you?" Mu Bian asked with a smile.

Su Liang shook his head, "Lord Mu is joking, please speak up if you have any orders."

"What I said at the beginning, we'll wait until the capital. It's really fine for the time being, but you helped me a few times before, and I thought maybe you would be willing to visit the mine." Mu Di pointed.

Su Liang pretended not to understand the words "I helped you a few times before", and only thanked Mu Di.

When Mu Bian asked when she and Ning Jing planned to leave for the provincial capital, Su Liang told the truth.

"Unfortunately, I can't go back to Beijing for the time being, otherwise it will be very interesting to go with the two of you." Mu Bian smiled, "After passing the provincial examination, you will go to the capital, right?"

Before Su Liang answered, he suddenly heard someone report loudly, "Master, General Nian has arrived!"

Su Liang followed the sound and looked, and saw a tall and stalwart figure striding towards the light, reminding her of the scene of Nian Jincheng breaking into the new house that night...

It was no coincidence that the person who came was Nian Jincheng.

He was dressed in dark black and was full of travel and dust. Compared with the last time we met, he was a little thinner, and his brows were still firm.

Nian Jincheng also saw Su Liang.

But nothing feels familiar.He subconsciously thought that this was the woman Mu Bing brought with him, so he looked away after only one glance.

Mu Bing stood up and greeted him with a smile on his face, "Jin Cheng, you're finally here!"

Nian Jincheng was about to kneel down to salute, but was held back by Mu Yan, "It's not in the capital, so there's no need to be like this. I told the paper that I needed help urgently, and I was afraid that my father would not be willing to send you here. Now that you are here, I feel at ease." gone."

Nian Jincheng looked respectful, "I have been ordered to come here, and I will do my best to assist His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince."

"That's good." Mu Wei ordered Chang'an to add a chair. He first introduced Nian Jincheng to Su Liang, "This is General Nian Jincheng, who was sent by the emperor to take over Wu Yun's position. The best general of the younger generation."

"The fourth prince is too famous, so I don't dare to be it." Nian Jincheng felt that there was no need for Mu Bian to introduce him to Su Liang.

"General Nian." Su Liang nodded.

Afterwards, Mu Kai introduced Su Liang to Nian Jincheng, "This is Miss Su. She grew up in the capital. She is the granddaughter of the famous doctor Su Yuanzhou. Now she lives in Sujia Village, Feiyan Town. She is very skilled in medicine and extremely intelligent. The scandal of Wu Yun and his son would not have been brought to light without Miss Su."

Hearing the word "Miss Su", Nian Jincheng narrowed his eyes, he was very surprised and puzzled, he really couldn't connect the girl in front of him with the Su Liang he had seen before.

It looks like two different people.

In front of Mu Peng, Nian Jincheng did not reveal that he had met Su Liang, but nodded lightly, and called out, "Miss Su."

Mu Peng chatted with Nian Jincheng, "The prince of Beijing has come to the capital, have you seen him?"

Nian Jincheng nodded, "I met Prince Xing at the Qin Palace Poetry Conference."

"It's rare that you will go to the poetry meeting." Mu Peng looked like he knew Nian Jincheng very well, "Xing Shizi used to live in Bei'an County, and Miss Su also knew him."

Nian Jincheng didn't answer, nor did he take out the things Xing Yusheng asked him to bring to Su Liang.

Chang An left for a while, then came back and winked at Mu Bian.

Mu Biao got up and left, saying he would be back soon.

Su Liang and Nian Jincheng were left by the lake.Nian Li was arranged by Chang'an to drink water and rest elsewhere.

"We meet again, Miss Su." Nian Jincheng looked at Su Liang expressionlessly.

She became fair and beautiful, and her temperament was very different from what he remembered.

Su Liang's face was calm, "General Nian, it's a pleasure to meet you."

"If I remember correctly, you are a married woman. Go out with other men in broad daylight, chat and laugh happily." Nian Jincheng said coldly, "What is your relationship with Xing Yusheng? What is your relationship with the fourth prince? Your husband-in-law Ning Jing do you know?"
