The day after the Liang Kingdom's escort team arrived in the capital of Qian Kingdom, Situ Yao visited her cousin Gu Ling and cousin-in-law Su Liang. It was as if the previous conflicts and fights had never happened.

Situ Jing and Situ Jing are also here. By blood, these two are Gu Ling's cousins.

When Qiu Cong, who was pulled by Lao Mu and played with Zheng'er in the underground maze of the Su Mansion, received the news, Situ Jing was already sitting on it drinking tea.

Qiu Cong was about to go up immediately, but was held back by Lao Mu, "Why are you going? Forgot that you just said you didn't care about him yesterday? Really! He came as the prince of Liang Kingdom, are you afraid that he will be killed? Isn’t it possible to bully?”

Qiu Cong pushed Lao Mu away, frowned and said, "It would be better if Xiao Liang and Xiao Gu really bully him."

"Why?" Zheng'er's little head popped up from a passage and asked with a smile, "Why is it good to be bullied? My aunt is the best person in the world and never bullies others!"

Lao Mu laughed heartily, opened his arms and rushed over to catch Zheng'er, but Zheng'er ran away again.

Lao Mu didn't chase after him. He returned to Qiu Cong and patted his shoulder, "Lao San, I know what you mean, but they all know what happens between the juniors. It's useless for you to worry about it!"

Lao Mu understood that from Qiu Cong's point of view, he actually hoped that Su Liang and Gu Ling could "break up" with Situ Jing. For example, they would beat up Situ Jing, wipe out their previous grudges, and accept him again.

But now Su Liang and Gu Ling's attitude towards Situ Jing is indifferent, even ignoring.

It seems that Gu Ling asked Situ Jing to return to Liang Kingdom to become the prince, but no one was watching him or controlling him. If he didn't want to go back, he could go wherever he wanted, and no one could control him.

Lao Mu completely understood Qiu Cong's mood. After all, it was the bloodline left by his daughter. As elders, even if their children and grandchildren made mistakes, they would still hope that they would have a chance to change their ways.

Lao Mu had a similar mentality towards his apprentice Mu Yu. He wanted to let go but couldn't let go. No matter what, he hoped that he would be well.

Hearing Zheng'er calling them from inside, Lao Mu left Qiu Cong and rushed in with a smile, "Here you go!"

…

When Situ Yao came, he also brought a gift specially prepared by Situ Xie for Gu Ling and Su Liang, a valuable jade screen. The carefully carved pattern on it was the Wolong Snow Mountain in Yaocheng.

"This is an antique. Grandfather said that my aunt liked this screen very much, and it was my aunt's wish to carve Wolong Mountain on it. But when my grandfather found a suitable craftsman to carve the screen, my aunt had passed away." Situ Yao sighed.

"Master Situ goes back and tells the King of Yue for us to thank him for the gift." Su Liang smiled.

Gu Ling, who was sitting next to her, was carving small flowers carefully without raising his head and not even looking at the guests, as if it had nothing to do with him.

Situ Jing nodded, "Okay, I will tell my grandfather. After Yao'er gets married, the second prince and I will set off to return to the country. From now on, Yao'er will only have two relatives in the Qian Kingdom, cousin Gu and his cousin, so I have to trouble you. Take good care of her."

Situ Yao looked at Su Liang earnestly, and saw her smiling and nodding, "Young Master Situ, don't worry, please tell the King of Yue to relax, my Emperor is kind-hearted, and he has a good relationship with Princess Yaoguang. What she is doing The country will live well."

These words are very polite, very decent, and very friendly, but they are not mixed with any emotion.

Not to mention that it was Gu Ling, not Su Liang, who was truly related by blood to these three "distinguished guests". If Gu Ling were asked to speak, he would not even be polite at all.

It can be said that the previous matters were all about different stances, but you can't always talk about your stance when you want to pick a fight, and then put aside your stance at other times and only talk about relationships and feelings. The two faces switch between each other as needed.

From the beginning to the end, Su Liang had the same attitude towards Gu Ling, the so-called maternal grandfather's family: Just pretend, you just pretend.

Regardless of whether others believed that Situ Xie cared about Gu Ling or not, Su Liang and Gu Ling themselves did not believe it at all.

Hearing Su Liang's words, Situ Yao narrowed her eyes. Situ Jing sighed and said nothing more. Even if the previous incident had not happened, Su Liang and Gu Ling still had this attitude, let alone now?

But having said that, Su Liang's arrest was not part of Situ Xie's plan. It was Situ Jing's fault.

Situ Jing looked at Situ Jing, "Won't the second prince go visit his grandfather and sister?"

Situ Xie said that he asked Situ Jing to try his best to win Qiu Cong over to Liang Kingdom.

Situ Jing put down the tea cup and looked at Su Liang with a calm expression, "Grandpa probably doesn't want to see me. Can I go see my sister?"

"You need to ask your grandfather about this matter first." Su Liang looked calm. Who can contact Nangong Qian should be decided by her protector Qiu Cong.

"Is grandpa here?" Situ Jing asked.

"Wait a moment, he will come over." Su Liang said.

Not long after, Qiu Cong came out of the underground secret room with Zheng'er on his back. Next to him was Lao Mu, who was holding Zheng'er's little hand and shaking it, looking like a warm and harmonious family of three...

Among the four masters of Su Liang, Cen Man has the best temper. Among the three old men, the one with the best temper and the highest emotional intelligence is Lao Mu. It seems that he and Qiu Cong quarrel every day, but in fact they have a good relationship.

.After Mu Yu gained wisdom and stopped struggling, there was nothing worrying about Lao Mu's life, and he became much more peaceful.

The smile on Qiu Cong's face disappeared after seeing Situ Jing.

Zheng'er lay on Qiu Cong's back and looked at the three guests curiously. One of them seemed familiar to him, so he asked, "Have we met this uncle before?"

It was Situ Jing who asked.

When he was Chen Yun, he once came to the capital with Lin Wei on business. At that time, he had a good relationship with Su Liang, and he even hugged Zheng'er.

But Zheng'er felt that it looked familiar but wasn't sure because after Situ Jing shaved off his beard, his appearance and temperament were completely different from before.

Situ Jing nodded, "I've seen you before, and I even hugged you."

Zheng'er was surprised, "Who are you, uncle? Have you disguised yourself?" He had seen Gu Ling change his face.

Situ Jing did not avoid the fact that he was Chen Yun before, covering the lower half of his face with his hands, "Big beard. Have you remembered?"

Zheng'er suddenly realized, "Uncle Chen Beibei!"

Situ Jing put down his hand and showed a faint smile, "It's me." Lin Qian came up with the nickname Chen Beibei.

Qiu Cong narrowed his eyes and watched the interaction between Situ Jing and Zheng'er. He carried Zheng'er forward and put it on the ground. Zheng'er ran towards Situ Jing, "Uncle Beibei, you look much better without a beard."

!”

While Situ Jing hugged Zheng'er, he subconsciously glanced at Su Liang and Gu Ling.

Just in time, Gu Ling raised his head, gave him a cold look, then lowered his head and continued carving.

Su Liang thought it was okay. Children don't understand the twists and turns between adults, so just be happy.

Situ Jing picked up Zheng'er and sat on his lap, and heard Zheng'er say with a smile, "Tai Gong Qiu said he hoped his grandson would be bullied. Who is Tai Gong Qiu's grandson?"

Qiu Cong:......

Lao Mu laughed loudly and went out.

The voice came from behind Zheng'er, "I am."

Zheng'er turned his head in surprise, "Uncle Beibei, it's you! Why does Mr. Qiu want you to be bullied? How strange."

Qiu Cong also drifted away silently without saying a word.

Su Liang smiled lightly and said nothing. She knew what Zheng'er was talking about, and Situ Jing must also know it.

Situ Yao felt that the atmosphere was strange, so she greeted Zheng'er and gave Zheng'er a beautiful jade bell.

Zheng'er thanked Situ Yao, then was picked up by Situ Jing and walked out, "I'll go talk to grandpa, you two."

"Put Zheng'er down." Gu Ling finally said the first sentence.

Situ Jing pretended not to hear, took a long stride, and disappeared from the door.

Zheng'er's laughter came in, "Uncle Beibei, run! My beautiful uncle wants to beat you!"

…

Seeing the attitude of Gu Ling and Su Liang, Situ Jing and Situ Yao had nothing to say, so they quickly stood up and left, with no intention of waiting for Situ Jing.

Su Liang asked Qi Jun to send them off, but he didn't return the gift.

When there were only two people left, Gu Ling put down the wood in his hand. The beautiful wood carving box on the table next to him was almost filled with exquisite wood carving flowers.

"Master, do you think Situ Yao is a smart person?" Su Liang asked.

We have dealt with him more than once, and Situ Yao has never done anything to offend Su Liang. She seems to be a perfect person.

But there is another possibility that she is pretending to be perfect.

Gu Ling shook his head, "It has nothing to do with us." If his mother was alive, she might care about these family members. But his mother had passed away long ago, and Gu Ling would not treat the Situ family as relatives just because of Situ Ning. That would be very important to him.

It's stupid and dangerous.

If Situ Xie really loved Situ Yao and was sincerely interested in her, he should not have allowed her to get married. Just like when Situ Ning got married, she was the man she chose, but Situ Xie agreed to marry far away, and he knew it very well.

How risky is it?

It's meaningless to talk about blood relationships with a group of people who only talk nice, but don't actually value blood relationships.

"I hope she can take care of herself." Su Liang sighed.

On the other side, Situ Jing found Qiu Cong and asked to see Nangong Qian.

Naturally, Qiu Cong would not stop him and let him go.

Zheng'er asked Qiu Cong, "Does Grandpa Qiu have a bad relationship with Uncle Beibei?"

Qiu Cong nodded, "It's very bad."

"Why?" Zheng'er asked.

Qiu Cong was silent for a moment before answering, "He's not good."

Zheng'er complained in a low voice, "How can Taigong Qiu treat him as a child for such a big man? I'm not a child anymore."

Qiu Cong narrowed his eyes, "Zheng'er is absolutely right."

When Situ Jing saw Nangong Qian, he found that her complexion was much better than when he left her last time. She didn't look sick anymore, and she had gained some weight. She was not as skinny as before.

Nangong Qian was very surprised to see Situ Jing. She took his arm and pulled him to see the flowers she planted by herself.

"It's very beautiful." Situ Jing looked at the piece of red peony in front of him and nodded slightly.

Nangong Qian said with a smile, "Grandpa said he would teach me kung fu in a few days! I'm afraid I won't be able to learn it. Grandpa stares at me every day and has to walk three large circles in the house. It was very tiring at first, but now it's so much more

Already."
