Su Liang went to Lin Family first according to the original plan.
Lin Shuzhi was very happy to see her.
Lin Xueqing repeatedly confirmed that Su Liang’s rash had left no trace, which was excellent news.
Su Liang felt a little guilty, as she hadn’t actually developed any rashes and had just used it as an excuse not to go out.
“Congratulations, Xueqing. I look forward to attending your wedding.” Su Liang said with a smile.
Lin Xueqing’s cheeks flushed, but she still openly admitted that she thought Xing Yusheng was a good match for her.
She specifically mentioned that once they were married, they would become neighbors with Su Liang, something she was looking forward to.
“Xueqing, you didn’t agree to marry Crown Prince Xing just to become my neighbor, did you?” Su Liang frowned.
Lin Xueqing quickly shook her head, “Of course not! A decision like marriage should be taken seriously. My father, my elder brother, and Yujin all say he’s a good person, and you’re friends with him too. I think he’s quite nice and genuinely likes me. He knows a lot and has been to many places. I enjoy cooking, and he’s willing to help me out, just like you and Ning Jing do.”
Su Liang nodded, “Not bad.”
Some things may seem ordinary at first glance, but life is made up of all kinds of trivial matters coming together.
Sometimes, it’s the seemingly insignificant little things that reveal a person’s character and attitude towards you.
Xing Yusheng isn’t a dominant person, and his past hasn’t been smooth. The warmth provided by his family has also been limited. Therefore, he will double his efforts to repay whoever treats him well.
Xing Yusheng is a man who cherishes and longs for tranquility.
At the same time, Xing Yusheng’s background enables him to have the conditions to achieve the peace he desires.
And because of some special reasons, he has become a noble with no future prospects.
Each of these aspects alone might not be unique, but combined together, they are quite rare.
This is also the main reason Su Liang thinks Xing Yusheng is suitable for Lin Xueqing.
As for the undecided wedding date, Su Liang didn’t think it was a big deal. In her eyes, Lin Xueqing was still young. After getting married, she would have to face the matter of having children, so it wouldn’t hurt to wait another year or two.
After all, it was an imperial decree granting their marriage, it’s a done deal. Duke Qin’s Mansion and Marquis Zhong Xin’s Mansion may appear low-key now, but they are not to be trifled with lightly.
Lin Xueqing insisted on Su Liang staying for dinner. She had learned many new dishes from Su Liang’s recipes and cooked them quite well.
Ning Jing estimated that Su Liang would be at Lin’s house and arrived just in time for dinner.
After lunch, Su Liang and Ning Jing left Lin’s house and went to Duke Qin’s Mansion.
Old Master Qin was in good spirits. Seeing the two of them appear, he immediately smiled and waved at them, looking kind and amiable.
Su Liang took Old Master Qin’s pulse, and his recovery was going well. In another ten days or so, he could try walking on the ground slowly.
Just as the acupuncture session ended, Qin Yujin came running in and saw Su Liang with a smile, “The Military Exam registration is today. I was wondering if you could go!”
Su Liang showed Qin Yujin the registration card for the Military Exam.
“I really admire you; you’re so amazing. Xueqing taught me some self-defense techniques, but I haven’t quite grasped them. I’ll need your guidance when you have time,” Qin Yujin said with a smile.
Su Liang agreed without hesitation.
“Xueqing and I have made plans to cheer for you together during the exam,” Qin Yujin said.
Su Liang nodded, “You’re welcome to come and watch.”
Although Su Liang had seen Nian Ruxue today, she didn’t mention it, and Qin
Y11J1n didn’t ask.
After having a cup of tea at Qin’s house, Su Liang and Ning Jing took their leave.
Both of them didn’t ride horses today. Su Liang declined Qin Yujin’s offer to arrange a carriage for them. She hadn’t gone out for a few days and wanted to walk around on her own.
The content of their “conversation” on the road was the Romance of the Three Kingdoms story that Su Liang had only begun telling last time.
As Su Liang talked about “borrowing arrows with straw boats,” the two side by side walked through the bustling marketplace.
A sharp arrow pierced through the air and shot towards Su Liang’s back!
Ning Jing’s eyes narrowed, but he made no move.
Su Liang dodged while pushing away a passerby.
The arrow penetrated through the bluestone slab and stuck firmly in it, displaying its tremendous power.
Ning Jing looked back in the direction the arrow came from and saw no one suspicious.
Su Liang pulled the arrow out of the ground. There were no particular marks on it, and the material was ordinary.
She hadn’t used any Martial Arts and appeared to have avoided the arrow merely by luck.
As the two left with the arrow, the brief commotion subsided, and the marketplace returned to its original order.
“Someone’s watching, better not go find Zhengzheng for now,” Su Liang said.
The two walked home through the alleyways, with Su Liang continuing her unfinished stories as if nothing had happened.
Once they entered the house, Su Liang held up the arrow, examined it several times, and handed it to Ning Jing, “Who do you think it was?”
Ning Jing shook his head, “I don’t know. It could be Duanmu Ao, Nian Ruxue, or perhaps Duanmu Che.”
“You…” Su Liang looked at the center of Ning Jing’s eyebrows, “It seems like it’s been a while since I’ve seen someone with a darkened forehead on you, and this time you didn’t foresee any danger for me either?”
“It’s because I haven’t seen many people lately.” Ning Jing said indifferently. Originally living in the capital city, he rarely saw people since it was a place that appeared prosperous on the surface but was filled with bloodshed and killing in secret. Some treacherous people left him confused and disgusted.
Although he had special abilities, he no longer rejected them, but he wouldn’t deliberately go out to find someone in need of saving.
He was once lost, but he had long learned to use his ability without letting it control his life.
“Then why didn’t you notice when you see me every day?” Su Liang was puzzled.
Ning Jing shook his head, “Today’s event, you could protect yourself, and there was no danger to your life.”
Su Liang was taken aback, “That’s true.”
What Ning Jing saw always required his intervention.
But Su Liang was different now from before.
“Would you see one of Duanmu Ao and Nian Ruxue with darkened focus if you looked at them now? Is one of them planning to kill me?” Su Liang asked.
“It won’t happen today, because it doesn’t require my help.” Ning Jing said. “Never mind.” Su Liang shook her head, “We’ll talk about it next time.”
Su Liang didn’t go to Wan Hui’s house. While she was making dinner, she heard Zhengzheng calling her.
Ning Jing secretly went and brought Zhengzheng over.
“Auntie!” Zhengzheng happily pounced over, hugged Su Liang’s leg, and raised her little face, “Uncle Ning said Auntie misses me a lot!”
Su Liane smiled and bent down to Dick uD Zhenzzhenz. “Yes.”
“Zhengzheng misses Auntie too!” Zhengzheng said cheerfully.
After making dinner, Su Liang added a Shrimp and Egg Custard Soup for Zhengzheng.
Considering Ning Jing’s principle that he couldn’t eat less than others, Su Liang made two bowls.
“Why doesn’t Auntie have eggs?” Zhengzheng was puzzled.
Su Liang, who was drinking soup, almost choked. Children spoke without filter, making ambiguous remarks!
“She doesn’t like it.” Ning Jing said.
“But it tastes so good!” Zhengzheng expressed his confusion.
Su Liang thought for a moment. It wasn’t that she didn’t like to eat it, but it was especially made for children. Ning Jing always wanted a share of even the children’s food, so that’s why she made two portions.
So, Su Liang said seriously, “It’s not that I don’t like it, it’s because I’m not a child. ”
Zhengzheng blinked, “Is Uncle Ning a child?”
“You ask him.” Su Liang chuckled.
Zhengzheng looked at Ning Jing, waiting for his answer.
Ning Jing nodded calmly, “Yes, I am.”
Zhengzheng laughed and fell into Ning Jing’s arms, “Uncle Ning is such a big kid!”
Su Liang facepalmed. The Great God had excellent mental resilience. As long as he didn’t feel embarrassed, others would be the ones who felt embarrassed.
Zhengzheng played until he was tired and fell asleep on Ning Jing’s shoulder, who then took him home.
For the next three days, Su Liang didn’t go out and had a fulfilling and peaceful time, with no one breaking into the house.
On the fifth day of the second month, the Military Exam officially began.
This was always the busiest time in the capital city.
Scholars who had come to take the exam arrived one after another, and those who came to participate in the Military Exam from all over the country also gathered here.
Inns, restaurants, and tea houses were all booming with business.
Like other days, Su Liang got up to exercise, made breakfast, ate with Ning Jing, and the sun had just risen.
She was changing clothes when she heard Lin Xueqing’s voice outside.
When Su Liang came out, she saw her friends had arrived.
Xing Yusheng said that his grandmother was going to go see the excitement, but since it was crowded today, he persuaded her to wait a few days. Xing Yusheng handed Su Liang the sword he had brought, “Try it.”
Su Liang took it, and it looked simple and heavy but was unexpectedly light.
She unsheathed the sword, flashing cold light, with a very thin blade. The words “Luoying” were engraved on it.
Su Liang was surprised internally. She knew that Ning Jing’s most formidable swordsmanship was called Luoying Sword, which she had learned but was still far from mastering due to its intricacy and complexity.
As for this sword, whether it was related to the Luoying Swordsmanship, she couldn’t ask Ning Jing at the moment, and only thanked Xing Yusheng.
Xing Yusheng shook his head, “No need. It’s a gift from my father to you upon our first meeting. He gave it to me this morning and said you might be able to use it recently.”
Su Liang thought that Xing Ji only gave her the gift today; this Luoying Sword might be something he had just acquired or had found specifically for her.
Su Liang handed it to Ning Jing, “What do you think?” Ning Jing didn’t take it but said only one word, “Good..”
