In order to avoid making too much noise in the city and attracting attention, Gu Ling made some homemade explosives and then went out of the city to find an uninhabited place to test them. New𝟔𝟗Book Bar𝟨𝟫𝒔𝒉𝒖𝒙.𝒄𝒐𝒎

For safety reasons, although Su Liang wanted to go, he was rejected and did not persist.

It was Lao Mu who accompanied Gu Ling out of the city. He knew how to make fireworks and firecrackers, and he knew something about explosives, but the formula Gu Ling used and the strange-shaped finished products made him feel very novel, and he didn't know how powerful they were.

Therefore, before Su Liang asked him, Lao Mu strongly requested to follow Gu Ling to have a look.

Su Liang, who was waiting for news at home, saw Qi Jun come back and chatted about the things in Xuanbei City that Qi Jiang brought back, mainly about what Qiu Cong and Qiu Jing's grandparents did after arriving in Xuanbei City.

After saying that, Qi Jun left to find Lonicera, and soon appeared in front of Su Liang, Master, Baiyang is back! I don't know what Lonicera was saying to him. It was mysterious. He asked me to avoid it. Wasn't he talking bad about me? The last sentence was in a joking tone.

About the same time as expected.

As for what Lonicera was talking to Bai Yang, Su Liang knew best. Hearing this, he smiled and said, The emperor has other arrangements for Bai Yang, and Lonicera wants to persuade him to accept it.

Qi Jun was stunned, What arrangement?

Let him join the army in the south and become Jincheng's deputy. Su Liang said. The so-called deputy does not mean that Bai Yang is really suitable to be a normal general. What he is best at is martial arts and disguise, which are also very important in war. Firstly, he can protect the safety of generals such as Nian Jincheng and Lin Wei. Secondly, he can complete necessary assassination missions or blend into the opponent's army to do something. Regarding these, Su Liang had a detailed discussion with Lonicera and asked her to talk to Bai Yang.

When Qi Jun heard this, he was surprised at first, and then showed envy, It seems that the emperor still values ​​Bai Yang very much.

Su Liang knew that the Qi brothers had always wanted to join the army, but their father Qi Jiang was in charge and refused to let them take risks.

Nowadays, the younger generation is short of generals. Su Liang said, But since you are planning to marry Lonicera, you don't want to join the army anymore, right?

That's... that's true, but it's still a bit regretful. I've lived for more than 20 years and I haven't done anything worth mentioning. Apart from following my master, but compared with my master and uncle, I'm not worth mentioning. Qi Jun told Su Liang what was on his mind.

Su Liang thought for a while, Then, why don't you discuss it with Lonicera, and you two, as well as Baiyang, go to the south? Xiaonian and Lin Ershan must be in urgent need of talents. Their brothers and sisters are highly skilled in martial arts, and you have a smart mind. Yes, and he has read a lot of military books, so he will definitely be able to accomplish something in the army.

Qi Jun's eyes lit up, and then he frowned, We are all gone, and there is no one to take care of the family.

Su Liang shook his head and said, Don't worry about it. I told you before that you are not slaves. You stayed here because there was nothing else suitable to do. But you have to discuss it with your father and Liao Dong. Your father was in charge before. It’s also to protect your brothers.”

Qi Jun's expression straightened, I understand. Then I'll go see if Lonicera and Baiyang have finished talking. I'll ask her for her opinion first, and then take her to see my father. My father is very supportive of our marriage. , already picking a date.”

Go. Su Liang nodded.

After Qi Jun left, Su Liang sat in the pavilion by the lake and read a few more pages. He heard footsteps and saw Bai Yang coming.

Su Liang closed the book and waited to chat with him. Unexpectedly, Bai Yang walked into the pavilion and knelt down facing Su Liang, Thank you for protecting us, Master.

Regarding Bai Yang's sudden change of words, Su Liang frowned slightly, It doesn't have to be like this. The emperor only cares about our face, but he also considers the overall situation.

But Bai Yang knew that even if Duanmu Chen didn't want to do anything to Ji Yueyan for the sake of the overall situation, there were still ways to kill him and torture Ji Yueyan.

These bad things did not happen because Su Liang and Gu Ling not only protected Ji Yueyan at the critical moment, but also gave Duanmu Chen a suggestion. At the same time, they gave Bai Yang and Ji Yueyan something they had never dared to think of. Hope for an honorable future.

Because in their original plan, even if they successfully eloped despite huge risks and overcome all difficulties, they would only be able to escape far away and hide in a place where no one knew them, and they would have to live in fear for the rest of their lives. What's more, there is a high possibility of failure and loss of life.

In this situation, even if Bai Yang is asked to wait for ten or eight years, he is willing. He didn't quite believe in Duanmu Chen as the emperor, but he believed in Su Liang and Gu Ling.

Bai Yang stood up, sat opposite Su Liang, and apologized to her first. Because in his original plan, he had the intention of taking advantage of the relationship between his sister and Su Liang. Although that was a helpless move.

Lonicera has helped us a lot. In addition, the matter between you two has not become a big deal, and it has not caused any serious consequences. There is still a chance to end well. Su Liang sighed, It seems that you have accepted the emperor's arrangement. ?”

Bai Yang looked guilty, That's a great grace.

Very good. Then you can set off south today. Let Nian Jincheng arrange your duties when the time comes. There is no need to go to the palace to meet the saint. Although the emperor is generous, he does not want to see you for the time being. If you can make contributions to the country, in your heart What you think about will be more secure. However, don't risk your life. Bravery and recklessness are not the same thing. When you encounter something, discuss it with the people around you. Nian Jincheng and Lin Wei are both my friends. , they all know Lonicera and will take care of you. Su Liang said.

Bai Yang nodded, Okay, I understand, thank you Master. But...

Su Liang interrupted, If you want me to arrange for you to meet with Concubine Yan before you leave, that's impossible. Duanmu Chen has made a lot of concessions and can no longer push the envelope and do anything that will damage the reputation of the royal family. matter.

Bai Yang shook his head quickly, Master misunderstood. Just now my brother-in-law said that he and his sister would go with me. I wanted to say this. Can I wait for them to decide before leaving?

Of course. Su Liang's eyebrows widened, It should be decided today. But... if you have anything you want me to bring to the person in the palace, I can help convey it to her next time I see her in the palace. It can only be Message.

Bai Yang's eyes lit up with joy, Thank you, Master!

In the afternoon, Gu Ling and Lao Mu returned home.

Lao Mu's body was dusty, but his old eyes were frighteningly bright. He ran over to Su Liang excitedly, My dear disciple, you don't even know how powerful the baby Xiao Gu made! If you weren't afraid of being scared, Disciple, I’ll let you go and see it, haha!”

Gu Ling then walked in and asked Lao Mu to take a shower.

I'm going to eat something to fill my stomach and then come back to you. You can teach me how to do it! Let's go out to the city to play again tomorrow! After saying this, Lao Mu ran away happily.

Gu Ling's body was relatively clean, but her shoes and trousers were a little dirty. After he and Lao Mu succeeded in the experiment, they used the shovels prepared in advance to fill in the holes created by the explosion... Lao Mu felt it was unnecessary, but Gu Ling was very careful in his work and didn't want anyone to discover those strange big holes. They went to a deep valley to confirm that there was no one within a certain range, and it was difficult to hear any movement outside.

How's it going? Su Liang handed Gu Ling a glass of water.

Gu Ling took it, drank it in one gulp, and then talked about the results of today's test. The two grenades and a bundle of explosives he brought with him were successfully detonated. But the detonation time of the grenade is not very stable, one is too fast, and the other is too slow. If you move too fast, you may injure yourself; if you move too slowly, you may be kicked back by the enemy.

Just like in Wanfu Garden the night before, when Gu Ling realized what was flying towards him, he didn't dare to hit it back with his palms or feet because he was not sure at what moment it would explode. It exploded at that moment. The best thing to do is avoid immediately.

But what Gu Ling did himself was to fix the detonation time within the most appropriate range, neither too fast nor too slow.

Explosives are detonated with a lit fuse. The explosion time is related to the length of the fuse and the burning speed. This is easy to control. Today, Gu Ling has a more intuitive understanding of the power of explosives.

It's amazing if you get it right the first time you try it. Although Su Liang said this, he also knew that Gu Ling was a person who pursued perfection in everything he did and would definitely improve it quickly until he was satisfied.

After dinner, Gu Ling took a nap with Su Liang.

Lao Mu, who was anxious to study the treasure with Gu Ling, wandered outside Yuanming Pavilion. He wanted to call Gu Ling but was afraid of disturbing Su Liang's rest.

Finally hearing something moving inside, Lao Mu rushed in and caught Gu Ling, and together they went to a courtyard in the mansion dedicated to dispensing medicine for Gu Ling, and continued their work.

Cen Man asked Su Liang what treasure Lao Mu and Gu Ling were working on, and Su Liang pretended to keep it secret for the time being.

Qi Jun took Lonicera to meet Qi Jiang.

If Qi Jun goes by himself and says he wants to join the army in the south, Qi Jiang will definitely not agree. But in front of his prospective daughter-in-law, and after listening to Rendong's words that she and her brother were also going, Qi Jiang didn't want to break up Qi Jun and Rendong, and didn't want his daughter-in-law to think he was an unreasonable old stubborn, so he agreed.

Qi Jiang earnestly warned Qi Jun, asking him to listen carefully to Lonicera and not to mess around.

Qi Jun was a little embarrassed, but more than anything, he was happy. Fighting side by side with his wife, it felt wonderful just thinking about it.

The person who is most speechless is Qi Yan. He didn't have a wife yet, so he asked Qi Jiang to join the army in the south. However, Qi Jiang refused and said, Find a wife first!

The depressed Qi Yan dragged Qi Jun into a fight, but found that Qi Jun's strength had surpassed him at some point!

Qi Yan deeply felt that his dignity as an elder brother had been seriously challenged, so he made a major decision: since Qi Jun and Lonicera have left, he will go to Su Mansion to be the housekeeper! Because following Su Liang, not only can he see the world and improve his strength, but he can also get a wife!

Qi Jun laughed loudly after hearing Qi Yan's reasons and expressed his absolute agreement.

Qi Jiang had no objection to this. It is definitely a good thing for his son to follow Su Liang.

So, when Su Liang saw Qi Jun again, he said that his father had agreed and that he would go to the south with his siblings Lonicera and Baiyang. In addition, he strongly recommended his brother Qi Yan to take over his position in Su Mansion.

Okay. Su Liang agreed happily, He can come if he wants. Now that his adoptive father and your father are back, there should be nothing he needs to do in the Zhongxin Marquis Mansion.

Qi Jun, Lonicera and Baiyang left the capital and went south that night. Su Liang wrote a letter to Yan Yu and asked Qi Jun to go to the Lin family to ask about it and help the Lin family bring the letter to Lin Wei.

After three days of research, Gu Ling finally made a grenade that satisfied him.

After Lao Mu's excitement faded, he sighed, You won't give this to the emperor, will you? If this is used on the battlefield, rivers of blood will flow.

Su Liang shook his head, No. He made this thing to be prepared for any danger, to be wary of his compatriots in the dark, and not to use it for other purposes.

Lao Mu nodded, That's good. No matter how the situation in the world changes, at least we can't become the executioner's accomplices. And once this thing is taken out and the Qian Kingdom has it, the Liang Kingdom and the Yan Kingdom will also try their best to imitate it, and still have it. There are other ambitious people. When there are explosions everywhere, how can there be peace in the world?

Su Liang agreed, she thought so too. At present, it seems that the fellow countrymen have not cooperated with any royal family, at least such advanced weapons have not yet appeared in the Liang and Yan countries.

After making the grenade, Gu Ling planned to try making a musket. Because Su Liang's fellow townsman may already have such a weapon.

Lao Mu became interested again and was curious about how Gu Ling came up with these things. Gu Ling said that he was hit by Lao Mu in his dream.

A few days after Bai Yang left, Su Liang entered the palace with Gu Ling and offered to treat Concubine Yan. Duanmu Chen guessed what she was going to do, but since it was decided, there was no need to worry about such a trivial matter, so he let her go.

When Su Liang saw Ji Yueyan, she was doing embroidery and looked pretty good.

Unlike last time, Ji Yueyan was obviously happy to see Su Liang this time and asked the servants to go out after serving tea. She had many things to ask Su Liang. Because Ji Yueyan knew nothing about Duanmu Chen's decision and Bai Yang's whereabouts. She was not relegated to the cold palace, her life was pretty good, she lacked nothing, but she never saw Duanmu Chen again, and she was still worried and didn't know what was going on.

Seeing Su Liang, Ji Yueyan immediately felt relieved.

Su Liang briefly told Ji Yueyan about Duanmu Chen's decision.

Ji Yueyan couldn't believe it, Is this true? Emperor Qian is really willing...

Su Liang nodded, I don't know what kind of person your father is, but you can believe it for the time being, and you can only believe that what I tell you is true.

Ji Yueyan was surprised and happy. After a while, she calmed down, looked at Su Liang and said, No matter what, I believe you.

I came here today to tell you that Bai Yang has been ordered to go south and I don't know when he will come back. He is with his sister and brother-in-law. Su Liang said.

Ji Yueyan felt sad for a moment, but quickly regained her composure, I know that he can't come to the palace to see me now. I can wait, and I am willing to wait for ten or eight years. After saying this, she stood up and stood in front of Su Liang Kneel down.

Judging from their words and deeds, the characters of this pair of hard-luck mandarin ducks are really similar.

Su Liang pulled Ji Yueyan up and conveyed Bai Yang's message.

Ji Yueyan breathed a long sigh of relief, and the big stone in her heart finally disappeared.

Remember, you are the princess from the Yan Kingdom and the noble concubine of this harem. Before that day comes, you must maintain your due dignity and do what you should do. Su Liang reminded Ji Yueyan.

I understand. Ji Yueyan nodded quickly and talked about another thing, The Queen's people yesterday and Concubine Liang wanted to visit me yesterday, but the Emperor's people stopped me. The Emperor did not allow me to go out. I won’t let anyone come over, so I’ll be in peace.”

It was easy for Su Liang to guess what Xing Yuyan was thinking. But Situ Yao came to see Ji Yueyan? Is it the concern between sisters, or do you want to confirm whether she is really sick?

Su Liang didn't care so much, and left Ji Yueyan's place. Gu Ling was waiting outside, and the two of them left the palace.

The carriage was not moving fast on the street. Su Liang had not gone shopping for a long time and said he wanted to get out of the car for a walk. Gu Ling asked Qi Yan to stop the carriage. He helped Su Liang get out and let Qi Yan go home first.

Gu Ling vaguely felt that someone was staring at him in the dark, but he did not find out where the eyeliner was hidden. He thought that the other party was also very skilled in martial arts, and he was probably the old man who threw the grenade at him earlier.

Because he was with Su Liang, Gu Ling didn't want to cause trouble and didn't bother to look for it. The two entered the Yan family's embroidery shop. Su Liang saw a piece of floral cloth. Although it was not the best material, she liked the color very much, so she bought it.

Yan Yu had explained that any good things in the Yan's shop would be sent to the Su Mansion first. So Su Liang didn't buy much by herself.

After walking out of Xiuzhuang, Gu Ling held Su Liang in one hand and a piece of floral cloth in the other, and the two of them headed towards Wanjia Restaurant.

While walking, Su Liang told Gu Ling that she planned to use this piece of cloth to decorate a stroller that Gu Ling had already made for her daughter. It would be very cute.

After the two entered the restaurant, in a dark alley in the city, the old man took a charcoal pen with his scarred hand and wrote on a sheepskin book, Gu Ling can make a baby carriage, and Su Liang can make a female hostess.

Turning over a page, it was the last page of the parchment, and the front was full of writing.

The old man pondered for a moment and wrote three slightly larger characters on the last page, It's Gu Ling.
