He even rewarded a lot of valuable medicinal materials for Duan Ling to bring, and remember to give them to Lin Liang on the way.

It stands to reason that Duan Ling is now cooking with blazing oil, but at this moment, he asked the emperor to resign and took Lin Liang to Suzhou to recuperate.

All of a sudden, all the princes were secretly ready to move.

Duan Ling naturally guessed that because he was too favored by the emperor a while ago, it attracted everyone's eyes. Therefore, when he and Lin Liang set off for Suzhou, they specially prepared a number of carriages.

Lin Liang, as a "seriously ill" person, is naturally heavily protected.

Even when she came to the carriage from Nanping Wangfu that day, Duan Ling carried her the whole time.

Noting that there were many more teams following behind than when he traveled before, Lin Liang was a little puzzled.

"Today I heard that you have led all the good horses out of the house, why is this?"

"Naturally, it's to confuse the public." In order to take care of Lin Liang, Duan Ling deliberately sat in the same carriage with her.

"What do you mean?" A smile flashed in Lin Liang's eyes.

Duan Ling nodded: "Anyway, let's be careful, this carriage, I am pretending to be an ordinary person, just to be a little wronged madam." ”

"So what's the matter?" Lin Liang smiled softly.

The carriage is just plain on the outside, but it is also very comfortable on the inside.

She leaned on Duan Ling's arms, and she felt even more comfortable, a little drowsy.

Fortunately, Duan Ling prepared in time, and sure enough, he sent other people to pretend to be him and Lin Liang's team out of the city, and they were ambushed by several groups of people before they left the city.

But fortunately, the people sitting inside were all imposters, and those princes who had already made a move saw that they had been deceived by Duan Ling, even if they were indignant, but for a while, there was no way to find out which carriage Duan Ling and Lin Liang were really riding, and the two finally got out of the capital without danger.

After hearing the report of his subordinates and knowing that those pursuers were all stopped at the city gate, Duan Ling and Lin Liang finally breathed a long sigh of relief.

Driving on the official road, Lin Liang felt that the scenery he had seen since he saw it was much better than what he would see on weekdays, and he couldn't help but open the curtain and greedily breathe in the fresh air outside.

"Speaking of which, this is the first time I have come out to visit the mountains and rivers with you in such a justifiable way, except for going to Luoyang for disaster relief."

"Not really." There was a maid outside who brought fresh fruit, and after Duan Ling took it, he carefully cut it into several pieces, and then sent it to Lin Liang's mouth.

Lin Liang turned his head and smiled at him, and ate the fruit with Duan Ling's hand.

"This time we went to Suzhou, have you already thought about where we will stay?"

"Naturally, Suzhou is a beautiful place to be, and you will love it. I have a courtyard over there, so let's just live there. ”

Originally, Lin Liang's aggravation of his condition was disguised, but in order to hide people's eyes, the distance traveled was much slower.

However, the identities of the two were there, Duan Ling had prepared very complete things this time, and along the way, he lived in either the most luxurious inn in the local area, or the home of a wealthy merchant and gentry, Lin Liang only felt that it was unprecedented and comfortable.

The night was drunk, and at the last stop from Suzhou, Lin Liang and Duan Ling lived in the home of a local civil official.

Duan Ling and the other party had a good conversation, and even drank a lot of wine.

Lin Liang felt a little bored in the house, so he put on a cloak accompanied by Yuzhu and admired the boundless and beautiful moonlight in the courtyard.

When Duan Ling came over with a faint smell of wine on his body, he saw Lin Liang sitting alone in the courtyard, playing with the chess pieces on the table.

"The moonlight is drunk tonight, what's the matter, does Madame want to play a game?"

Duan Ling sat down opposite Lin Liang, his slender fingers pinching one of the black chess pieces.

Lin Liang smiled lightly at him: "If it's a game, I'm not your opponent, it's just that the situation in the DPRK and China is ...... now."

When Lin Liang said this, Duan Ling immediately understood.

"Now the most fierce competition is naturally the crown prince, the ninth prince and the eleventh prince."

"The crown prince I know, he is the oldest, even if he is grounded, I am afraid that he will not be able to bear it, I am afraid that the fifth prince also thinks the same way."

Lin Liang thought of the few princes he had not seen many times in the court, and frowned, recalling his impressions of several people.

"Yes, but the eleventh prince is because of the huge power of his mother's family. His own uncle was a fat cavalry general, so he had the opportunity to compete with the other two. ”

"What about you? Didn't you ever think like that? ”

In fact, Lin Liang has been holding this in his heart for a long time, and it stands to reason that Duan Ling's background is not low.

Moreover, he has a very high prestige in the army, even if the fifth prince and the eleventh prince are added together, it is not as important as half of what Duan Ling said in the army.

However, Duan Ling gently held Lin Liang's hand: "Don't worry, the future is long." ”

Just when the two of them went to Suzhou and stayed temporarily in Duan Ling's local courtyard, news of Duan Ling's deployment in the army had already arrived.

"Sure enough, the crown prince, the fifth prince and the eleventh prince are showing a three-legged trend."

Duan Ling handed the eight-hundred-mile urgent document in his hand to Lin Liang.

Instead, he propped up his chin and looked at Lin Liang's face that had changed a lot at the moment.

"They're fighting, but you're not in a hurry at all." Lin Liang played with the small note in his hand, just thinking about the current situation in the capital, he felt that it was enough to make people's hearts flutter.

On the other hand, Duan Ling looked very leisurely.

It seems that the battle in the capital has nothing to do with him, the king of Nanping, who has real power in his hands.

"Afraid of what? When they're almost done, it's a good time for us to go back. ”

Duan Ling raised his glass with his left hand, and even handed a cup of hot tea to Lin Liang's mouth quite leisurely, in exchange for Lin Liang's disgusted look.

"And what are you going to do now?"

Lin Liang didn't believe that Duan Ling would be such an old god, waiting for those princes to fight to the death in the capital.

According to a person as smart as him, he must have had his own thoughts in his heart.

However, Duan Ling just smiled, pulled Lin Liang to sit down next to him, and silently breathed in the fragrance from her hair, the peace and ease at this moment really made Duan Ling reluctant to give up.

"Didn't I bring you here to recuperate? Then we must be here to enjoy the mountains and rivers. ”

"I know that you don't have any good intentions, and you must have bad water in your stomach."

Lin Liang just smiled and leaned on Duan Ling's shoulder.

Unconsciously, the two of them actually became husband and wife like this, and they got closer and closer, which made Lin Liang feel extremely satisfied.

Duan Ling took Lin Liang to stay in Suzhou, and went to the famous mountains and rivers nearby with Lin Liang every day, and even met many like-minded friends.
