When Yan Jiu saw Su Liang again, he saw that she had changed her clothes.

"You go first, we have some things to arrange, and we will rush over later." Su Liang said.

Yan Shijiu was stunned for a moment, "Both Doctor Su and Mr. Hou are going?" Although Gu Ling is the regent now, many people are still accustomed to calling him Mr. Hou. After all, the identity of the regent has almost no sense of existence.

Su Liang sighed slightly, "The child is still young, and none of us want to be separated from her, so let's go together. I also planned to go back to Sujia Village this year, but we have to rush this time."

Yan Shijiu looked grateful, "Thank you so much, Doctor Su!"

"In this case, you go back first and tell Yan Shiba to hold on, we will be there soon." Su Liang said.

"Okay." Yan Shijiu nodded, "Then I'll take my leave now!"

"I forgot to reply to Xiaohu and Zhuzi." Su Liang frowned, "Forget it, it's not too late, we are going there anyway."

Yan Shijiu left Su Mansion first.

Su Liang told him that she would take Gu Xiaonuan to Sujiacun with Gu Ling, which was not true. They did not want to leave their children, but Gu Ling did not want to take their children out. It would be too much trouble. Since they had to do something

, it is more serious to get things done as soon as possible.

Gu Ling went and asked Su Liang to stay. Firstly, his daughter needed her mother more, secondly, Gu Ling was good at martial arts, and thirdly, he had basically mastered the medical skills that Su Liang knew, so it was not a big problem to save people.

But if Gu Ling is to go alone, Su Liang is worried. At least he needs to find someone else to accompany him. The only people in the mansion who are good at martial arts and will not hold him back are Qiu Cong and Qiu Jing.

Since Qiu Cong finally returned home due to his old age, Su Liang called Qiu Jing and asked him to come with Gu Ling.

Qiu Jing didn't even ask anything and agreed first. Ji Yuebai was named king, but Qiu Jing was not. Because he had already drawn a clear line with the Situ family of Liang Kingdom, and he was originally a military general of Qian Kingdom. But in the period of peace in the world

, the general is not so busy anymore, he is on vacation.

Qiu Jing was not surprised to learn that it was about Yan Shiba. He had known that Yan Shiba had a close relationship with Su Liang, because when Qiu Cong and Qiu Jing were in Xuanbei City, he had heard Su Liang tell him several times to go to Ping'an specifically.

The temple asked the young monk Chengyun if he had seen Yan Shiba.

"Although it seems like there are no flaws now, we have to be on guard." Qiu Jing felt that it was better to be cautious. Yan Shijiu's broken arm was evidence of the previous disaster he said, but there was no guarantee that it was not caused by other reasons or a trick.

Yan Shijiu said that Yan Shiqi colluded with a group of top experts to kill Yan Shiba again. And based on the time Yan Jiu described, that group of people might be from Xingluo Island.

"It would be great if I knew how to heal. I can go by myself and you don't have to separate." Qiu Jing blurted out, feeling a little embarrassed when he finished the words, feeling that he had just said nonsense.

When Qiu Cong learned that Qiu Jing was going to go out with Gu Ling on business, he had no objection. He completely believed in Gu Ling's strength, and Qiu Jing would be fine with him, and his actions were still secret, unlike before, where everyone in the world knew

Knowing where Qiu Jing is, it is easy to attract assassins.

"You guys go back quickly. Don't worry about your family, I will take good care of you." Qiu Cong said.

Gu Ling had already said goodbye to Su Liang and hugged her daughter for a kiss. Gu Xiaonuan didn't know that Gu Ling was going away, so she still laughed heartlessly. Zheng'er and Ji Xiaoshu, on the other hand, were reluctant to leave.

.

"Master, have a safe trip, leave early and come back early." Zheng'er said with a serious face.

Ji Xiaoshu hugged Gu Ling's legs, "Master must miss me!"

"No." Gu Ling said.

Ji Xiaoshu hummed, "If master comes back late, my sister will call me brother first! Haha!"

Gu Ling's face was a little dark. This was indeed an effective threat. He almost forgot that his daughter would start talking soon, but he would not be home then. When he thought of this, he wanted to stay or hug Gu Xiaonuan.

Go together.

"Junior brother, don't talk nonsense! My sister must be called mother first, then father, and then brother!" Zheng'er is a considerate and good boy.

Ji Xiaoshu blinked, "But if Master is not at home, who does my sister call daddy?"

Su Liang knocked on Ji Xiaoshu's forehead and said, "It's already hard for your master to go out, so don't make it worse."

Ji Xiaoshu immediately behaved and said, "Master, I'm sorry, I was joking. Senior brother and I will definitely protect my sister. Before Master comes back, let her only learn to call her mother! Brother is not allowed to call her either!"

Zheng'er nodded quickly, "Yes!"

Gu Ling just didn't want to be separated from Su Liang and the child. But if there was a problem, it needed to be solved as soon as possible.

…

After Gu Ling left, Qiu Cong lived in Yuanming Pavilion with his two young disciples and was responsible for teaching them martial arts. However, many times Qiu Cong couldn't be strict even if he wanted to, and was always defeated by the naughty Ji Xiaoshu.

Su Liang rarely goes out anymore. Apart from taking care of her children, she basically spends time at home reading, tinkering with medicinal herbs, and tending the orchard.

Ever since she and Gu Ling separated and reunited after getting married, they have never been separated. Counting it all, from the time she traveled here, Gu Ling has been everywhere in her life. Once Gu Ling left, Su Liang really

I was not used to it, and I didn’t sleep well for the first two nights. I was always worried that she wouldn’t hear my daughter cry, because Gu Ling used to do all the things like changing the baby’s diapers at night. Even if she needed to feed her baby at night, Su Liang wouldn’t do it.

Need to get up.

Gu Xiaonuan didn't notice anything was wrong during the day, but at night she was obviously looking for Gu Ling. Sometimes Su Liang couldn't help crying when she cried, and it took several days to get better.

This made Su Liang worry that Gu Xiaonuan would forget Gu Ling, and Gu Ling would be sad when he came back.

So Su Liang carefully painted a portrait of Gu Ling and hung it on Gu Xiaonuan's cradle for her to look at every day.

In response, Ji Xiaoshu sighed: We are really heartbroken for Master!

Duanmu Chen learned that Gu Ling was out, and after asking Su Liang why, he didn't say anything. He only told her to be more careful on weekdays, in case Yan Shijiu colluded with Xingluo Island, this was a plan to lure the tiger away from the mountain.

Su Liang knew it, and Gu Ling knew it too, but something had to be done.

…

Gu Ling and Qiu Jing were cousins, but their relationship never got very close. At first, Qiu Jing made friends with Su Liang. For some reasons, he was jealous of Gu Ling, not just because of Su Liang. Now looking back at the past

, I thought it was childish and ridiculous at the time.

Neither of them was a talkative person like Lin Wei, and neither of them ran out of things to talk to after going out. As a result, except for necessary brief exchanges, they almost didn't speak.

Qiu Jing knew that Gu Ling must be in a bad mood after leaving Su Liang and the child, and just wanted to go back quickly. He fully cooperated with Gu Ling along the way. He followed Gu Ling's arrangements for how fast he was going and when to rest, including eating and drinking.

In this way, the two of them traveled day and night, taking only an hour's short rest every day. Using the fastest speed, they arrived in Bei'an County five days after leaving the capital.

When we arrived at Feiyan Town, it was getting late, there were very few people on the road, and many shops were closed. Qiu Jing had not stood still all day, and was hungry. He thought that Gu Ling would go directly to Sujia Village without stopping, but he didn't know that he

Passing by Luoyan Restaurant, I stopped and turned in.

Qiu Jing followed. There were still some diners in the restaurant. He looked at them and quickly looked away.

Gu Ling ordered a few signature dishes and a bottle of wine.

The shopkeeper was still the same as before. Hearing Gu Ling's ordering skills, he smiled and asked him if he had been here before.

Gu Ling nodded, "Does the shopkeeper know if the second master of the Hu family is in town?"

When the shopkeeper heard Gu Ling mention Hu Er, he looked shocked. Now Hu Er is a well-known wealthy businessman in Bei'an County. His business is not small, and he has changed from the local snake he used to be. He often does good deeds and has become a Hu Er from all over the country.

Great good man.

Hu Er was a frequent visitor to Luoyan Restaurant, and he had entertained many business friends here. Looking at Gu Ling's temperament, the shopkeeper guessed that Gu Ling had been invited to dinner here by Hu Er, and he must not be an ordinary person, so he called a waiter.

, let me go and find out if Mr. Hu is in town.

The waiter came back within a quarter of an hour and said that Hu Er was in town and that the Hu family would have a birthday party at his old house in a few days. Hu Er just came back from out of town today.

Gu Ling gave the waiter a piece of silver as a reward, but said nothing else. He and Qiu Jing finished their meal, paid the bill, and left.

"Is Hu Er your friend?" Qiu Jing asked.

Gu Ling nodded. Su Liang once asked Hu Er to take care of the people in Sujia Village. Gu Ling inquired about his whereabouts to see if he had been in the town recently. If he had just returned from other places, he probably didn't know that Yan Shiba had moved in.

In Sujia Village, there is no need to look for him.

"I have an idea." Qiu Jing pulled Gu Ling into a deserted dark alley.

Gu Ling frowned and said, "Say."

"I'm about the same size as you." Qiu Jing looked at Gu Ling. He was originally stronger than Gu Ling, but after the past two years of various things, he has been busy and lost a lot of weight. "I wonder if there will be

If you want to deceive me, it would be safer if I pretend to be you in the open and you act in secret."

Seeing that Gu Ling remained silent, Qiu Jing explained, "If something happens to me, I believe you will be able to save me. But if something happens to you, I may not be able to save you." He now clearly knows that in addition to martial arts,

He is far behind Gu Ling in every other aspect. His martial arts skills are also not as good as Gu Ling's, but this is the only thing comparable.

This idea came to Qiu Jing on the way, and he didn't mention it before when he was on the way. Now he thought it should be discussed.

The explanation just now is true, but it was also said by Qiu Jing on purpose because he was afraid that Gu Ling would not agree.

To be honest, Qiu Jing felt that Su Liang and Gu Xiaonuan needed Gu Ling and nothing could happen to him. Qiu Jing himself didn't have much concern. His grandfather and sister were both doing well and hadn't gotten married yet. Anyway,

, for everything in the past, he was indebted to Gu Ling and Su Liang.

Gu Ling said, "You don't have medical skills."

Qiu Jing had already considered this, "Say a few words that are mysterious, and then say that I need to prepare, and then let you take action in secret."

Gu Ling was silent for a moment and then nodded, "That's fine." This was a more rational approach.

So, when the two of them set off to Sujiacun again, they had already changed their clothes. Qiu Jing had disguised himself as Gu Ling, and Gu Ling had disguised himself as him.

…

It was late at night, and the small village was quiet and peaceful. Compared with the last time Gu Ling left, there were several newly built bridges on the river, and many houses were taller than before.

Su Liang and Gu Ling's first home was located by a small river, and it still looked the same.
