The sky was clear and blue, with a warm breeze blowing.

After Duanmu Cheng sat back down, suppressing his anger, the show began.

Duanmu Ao had had his eyes on the female lead from the moment she appeared on stage, and Nian Jincheng applauded enthusiastically.

This made the onlookers even more certain that a new member would be joining the Crown Prince’s backyard today.

Duanmu Cheng gave a faint smile, leaned over and whispered, “Now that you’re the Crown Prince, how can you be without beauties by your side?”

Nian Jincheng nodded with a smile, and said loudly, “Big brother, do you have your eye on that female lead and want to take her back with you? Don’t worry, I won’t fight with you for her! But in matters like this, it’s always best if both parties are willing. After the play is over, we’ll call her over and ask!”

Duanmu Cheng was thinking about persuading “Duanmu Ao” to bring back an actress without letting others know, so his words were only heard by Nian Jincheng.

But he never would have expected that Nian Jincheng would turn around and put a cap of lasciviousness on his head!

Duanmu Cheng didn’t react immediately, and after Nian Jincheng finished speaking, Duanmu Cheng’s face darkened and he nearly flipped the table!

“Big brother, are you angry? It’s my fault, I misunderstood what you meant. Do you want to take that actress back quietly, without making a fuss? There’s no need! You’re not the Crown Prince now, and you don’t need to put up a facade. Do as you please!” Nian Jincheng said, patting Duanmu Cheng’s shoulder, “Not like me, I have to follow Father Emperor’s teachings and be cautious in my words and actions.”

Duanmu Cheng was twice thwarted and nearly vomited blood from anger.

Unfortunately, there was no third person present to hear the truth and there was no way to refute these allegations.

“I never said anything about that, don’t slander me! ” was too weak a protest and nobody would believe it.

Anyone with discerning eyes could see that Duanmu Cheng and “Duanmu Ao” did not get along on the surface, let alone in their hearts.

“Duanmu Ao” seemed to be simple-minded, straightforward, and had a slightly low emotional intelligence; but he spoke his mind and didn’t hide anything.

Duanmu Cheng practically had the bitterness and resentment of losing the Crown Prince’s position etched on his forehead. Though he tried hard to conceal it, he couldn’t.

As Su Liang admired Nian Jincheng’s performance and watched the play on stage, she felt that life was like a play, and a play like life. Underneath the word “splendid” lurked turbulent undercurrents.

Ning Jing suddenly raised her hand and placed something before Su Liang’s eyes, asking, “How is it?”

Startled, Su Liang found herself at a loss for words when she regained her senses.

Ning Jing had folded his handkerchief into a cute little mouse and placed it in his palm, presenting it as a treasure for Su Liang to see.

“Don’t disturb me while I’m watching the play,” Su Liang said, thinking that this man’s interests were very unique. It couldn’t be simply described as immature – beneath his aloof and dust-free appearance, there was a romantic heart full of curiosity and passion for life.

Ning Jing took back his little mouse, restored the handkerchief to its original state, folded it up, and stuffed it into his sleeve.

There were no further disturbances from Duanmu Cheng and Nian Jincheng in the front row.

Nian Jincheng focusea on me may, ana Duanmu cheng stayea quiet.

When the play ended, the troupe leader brought the female lead, still in her stage makeup, to Duanmu Cheng and Nian Jincheng.

“Little brother, what if I redeem this beauty for you and present her to you as a congratulatory gift for becoming the Crown Prince?” Duanmu Cheng smiled, “Don’t refuse. Everyone loves beauty, and Father Emperor knows your temperament and won’t blame you for such a small matter.”

Nian Jincheng shook his head, “Big brother, you really need to change this insincere attitude of yours. Why does this have anything to do with me when it’s clearly what you want?”

Seeing that Nian Jincheng still wouldn’t bite, Duanmu Cheng, afraid that continuing the argument would not only fail to embarrass Nian Jincheng but would also stain himself, stood up and said, “Forget it. Everyone, step back. My second brother is just joking.”

“Big brother, are you sure you don’t want her?” Nian Jincheng also stood up, smiling as he asked.

Duanmu Cheng shook his head, “I’m feeling a bit unwell and need to go back.”

“Weren’t you just promising me that we would go to the palace together to visit the Empress Dowager? Have you forgotten so quickly?” Nian Jincheng frowned.

Another cap of unfilial piety was thrown down, and Duanmu Cheng almost gritted his teeth to pieces!

“Big brother, the matter of the Crown Prince’s position, the Empress Dowager has already pleaded for you to Father Emperor, but the mistakes you made were too serious. The Empress Dowager was so worried that she fell ill and Father Emperor did not change his mind,” Nian Jincheng said, his words giving rise to endless thoughts.

From yesterday till now, everyone in the capital city was guessing why Duanmu Cheng was suddenly abolished.

Nian Jincheng opened his mouth and made a definitive judgment, “Duanmu Cheng committed an unforgivable mistake, and even the Empress Dowager’s pleading was useless.”

And the cause of all this was Duanmu Cheng’s affair with Xiao Mulian. At this moment, when Nian Jincheng said such words that simply and rudely poured dirty water on Duanmu Cheng, Duanmu Cheng’s face changed from dark green to pale, but he couldn’t refute a single word because he was dirtier than the dirty water…

Duanmu Cheng was afraid that if he dared to defend himself, it would anger “Duanmu Ao”, and if “Duanmu Ao” really exposed the scandal, he would be done.

Seeing that “Duanmu Ao” said such words in public and Duanmu Cheng did not say a word to admit, the onlookers naturally believed that what “Duanmu Ao” said was true, and they began to speculate on what Duanmu Cheng had done wrong.

Duanmu Cheng stood stiffly, and Nian Jincheng suddenly reached out to embrace his shoulder, “Great Imperial Brother, let’s go and see the imperial grandmother, she misses you very much.”

Duanmu Cheng unconsciously pushed Nian Jincheng hard.

Su Liang watched as Nian Jincheng was forcibly pushed down in a very contrived manner and sat on the ground, simply unbearable to look at…

There was no way, verbal “taunts” worked with the brain.

For physical ones, letting Nian Jincheng, a strong and robust military commander, perform a weak push was really hard on him.

But this “performance desire,” Su Liang felt was worth affirming.

Whether it is “taunting” or not, this is called means, and effectiveness is what matters.

What everyone saw was that “Duanmu Ao” urged Duanmu Cheng to enter the palace to see the Empress Dowager, but Duanmu Cheng suddenly became angry and even assaulted “Duanmu Ao” in public.

“Crown Prince!”

Duanmu Ao’s subordinate hurriedly came to help Nian Jincheng up.

Nian Jincheng got up and sighed, “I have not fully recovered from my injuries before. If you are not in a good mood, Great Imperial Brother, and don’t want to enter the palace, just say it. Why do you have to do this?”

“You!” Duanmu Cheng angrily pointed at Nian Jincheng, finally unable to suppress the raging anger in his chest, “Duanmu Ao, you have already taken my position as crown prince, what more do you want? Do you have to publicly humiliate me?”

Nian Jincheng frowned, “Great Imperial Brother, I don’t understand what you are talking about. First of all, the position of crown prince is not snatched by me, it is decided by the emperor, and no one can snatch it. You know best what you have done, and I didn’t say it to save your face. Is it humiliating for me to invite you to visit the imperial grandmother together? Did the imperial grandmother do anything wrong to you?”

Duanmu Cheng gritted his teeth, but could not speak anymore.

His subordinates hurriedly came to persuade him to calm down and go into the palace with “Duanmu Ao”.

“Imperial Physician Su?” Nian Jincheng seemed to see Su Liang for the first time and hurriedly stopped her, “You went into the palace to treat the imperial grandmother this morning, has her body improved?”

Su Liang stood up and saluted, “Greet the Crown Prince. Empress Dowager’s body is better than yesterday.”

“That’s good.” Nian Jincheng nodded, “You have worked hard.”

“It is the duty of the minister.” Su Liang said respectfully.

Once friends, Duanmu Cheng and Duanmu Ao became rivals over the position of crown prince.

But the formerly hostile Duanmu Ao and Su Liang suddenly seemed to have put aside their grudges.

The twists and turns within were intriguing.

In the end, Duanmu Cheng did not enter the palace with Nian Jincheng and left Changchun Garden with a gloomy face.

Nian Jincheng had done his homework, and brought two of Empress Dowager Wan’s favorite performers with him to the palace, saying that they would sing a few tunes for the Empress Dowager to relieve her boredom.

The formerly prodigal second prince suddenly became serious after becoming the crown prince.

After the initial surprise of the onlookers and listeners, they thought it was normal. Presumably, Duanmu Cheng lost the position of the crown prince and showed his true nature, while Duanmu Ao began to pay attention to his image after he got the position of crown prince.

The show is over.

Su Liang and Ning Jing did not leave Changchun Garden immediately, but instead strolled around the various places inside.

This was an elegant garden, with some exclusive courtyards for the nobles to rest while listening to an opera.

Su Liang thought one of them must have witnessed Duanmu Cheng and Xiao Mulian’s affair.

After touring the garden, the two left and arrived at Wan Family Restaurant at noon. Wan Hui was hosting a feast for Yang Yu and just as they were talking about Su Liang not yet leaving the palace, they arrived together.

“Uncle Ning! Auntie!” Zhengzheng sat in Yang Yu’s arms, excitedly waving his little hand.

“You’re both alright?” Yang Yu was quite surprised.

Ning Jing picked up Zhengzheng.

Su Liang took a seat, “After I went to the palace to give the Empress Dowager an acupuncture treatment, I came out and went to Changchun Garden with

Ning Jing to watch a fantastic play.”

“You don’t have to go to the military camp today?” Wan Hui asked.

“I’ll go in the afternoon.” Su Liang said, “I have to eat enough first so I have energy to train later. The two of us came here to mooch off some food.” Wan Hui couldn’t help but laugh, “What nonsense are you talking about? This restaurant is both mine and yours. If you want something, order more dishes.” “Enough, don’t waste it.” Su Liang said, picking up chopsticks to eat.

“I heard the new crown prince went to Changchun Garden to watch a play.”

Yang Yu asked, “Was there any trouble?”

Su Liang shook her head, “Everything was fine.”

With Wan Hui present, there were many things she didn’t know, so Yang Yu didn’t openly discuss them and changed the topic.

After eating, Su Liang put down her chopsticks and left, “I’m going to the military camp, you guys can continue eating and chatting.”

“Auntie, I’ll go too!” Zhengzheng raised his little hand high.

Su Liang shook her head, “Not today.” She wasn’t going there for fun.

Ning Jing put down his chopsticks, grabbed Zhengzheng’s little arm, and raised his little hand again, “I’ll go too.”

Su Liang: …

Wan Hui thought Ning Jing was doing it for Zhengzheng’s sake and hurriedly coaxed her son, “Don’t make a fuss, Zhengzheng. That’s not a place for playing. ”

Su Liang saw Ning Jing looking at her and knew he was serious.

Today, Su Liang only visited Ning Jing’s “workplace” as a family member.

Ning Jing was requesting equal treatment so soon…

“The scenery near the military camp is nice, you can take Zhengzheng to have some fun.” Su Liang said.

Zhengzheng was overjoyed, he could ride a horse again.

Wan Hui laughed and cried, “Don’t spoil him too much. He’s still young and doesn’t understand things.”

Ning Jing stood up holding Zhengzheng, “There’s a lot I don’t understand either.”

Su Liang certainly understood that Ning Jing was seriously stating a fact. Everyone has many things they don’t understand; nobody is omniscient.

But saying it at this time sounded like Ning Jing was comparing himself to Zhengzheng.

Wan Hui was speechless.

Yang Yu blurted out, “Brother Ning, you’re spoiled by Su Liang.”

Anyway, from what Yang Yu saw, no matter what Ning Jing said, wanted to do, or wanted to eat, Su Liang almost never opposed. Some things Yang Yu didn’t understand, but it seemed Su Liang completely knew what he was thinking.

“Auntie spoils uncle, uncle spoils me!” Zhengzheng happily summarized, looking proudly.

“Zhengzheng is the cutest.” Su Liang casually ended the topic, “We’re short on time, let’s hurry along.”

As Su Liang went out, Ning Jing held Zhengzheng in one arm and her medicine box in the other.

Wan Hui and Yang Yu looked at each other.

“Liangmeimei likes Ning Jing, right?” Wan Hui asked.

Yang Yu nodded, “I think so. Look at the two of them, like an old married couple, but they won’t admit they like each other. I lived under the same roof with them, and I can say that neither of them could stand being with someone else. No girl can understand Ning Jing except Su Liang. No man can make Su Liang so amiable except Ning Jing.”

Wan Hui agreed, “Indeed.”

“Just say Nian…” Yang Yu almost blurted out Nian Jincheng’s name and quickly changed his words when he realized his mistake, “Before the New Year, when I first met them in Su Family Village, I thought they had known each other for a long time and understood each other very well. But they had only just met less than a month earlier. Isn’t that strange, Sister Wan?”

Wan Hui smiled and shook her head, “It’s not strange, it’s called fate, and it

cant De explameu.

“But they don’t seem to be planning to get married formally,” Yang Yu frowned.

“I think so too,” Wan Hui said. “We don’t have to worry, it’s a matter of time. They’re both forthright people, and they have their own plans.”

Yang Yu sighed, “I don’t plan to get married, so I’m eagerly waiting for Ning Jing and Su Liang to get married and have a child, so I can help them take care of it.”

Wan Hui laughed and shook her head, “You’re still young, it’s just that your fate hasn’t arrived yet, so don’t say things so definitively.”

The military camp is off-limits to outsiders.

Su Liang and Ning Jing brought Zhengzheng to the vicinity of the military camp on horseback. Su Liang went in and let Ning Jing and Zhengzheng play outside.

Seeing Su Liang, Lin Bo Jun was a little surprised, “I thought you weren’t coming today.”

“I was at the palace in the morning, but I’m free in the afternoon.” Su Liang said.

“Then you can go to Luo Rong’s team. They’re training on the west side of the school field.” Lin Bo Jun said, “The Emperor sent someone to call me to the palace. When you finish training, go home early and be careful on the road.”

Su Liang nodded, “Ning Jing is outside. If Second Brother Lin sees him, have him play enough and then go back first without waiting for me.”

Lin Bo Jun was startled for a moment but didn’t make an exception to let Ning Jing into the military camp.

When he went out to see Ning Jing, he was taking Zhengzheng, one big and one small, to pick flowers in the forest.

Su Liang asked Lin Bo Jun to tell Ning Jing to leave first after playing enough, but Lin Bo Jun said, “Xiaoliang wants you to wait and escort her home.”

“Okay, okay!” Zhengzheng answered for Ning Jing.

Lin Bo Jun smiled and rode away.

Ning Jing glanced in the direction of the military camp, knowing that Lin Bo Jun was definitely lying.

But when the sun set, Su Liang came out leading a horse and saw Ning Jing and Zhengzheng waiting for her not far away.

Su Liang went over to them and noticed that Zhengzheng was wearing a cute little flower wreath. He tugged at Ning Jing’s sleeve, and Ning Jing revealed the hand he had hidden behind his back, handing over a larger flower wreath, “Zhengzheng’s gift for you.”

Su Liang smiled, “I’ll give it to you. Put it on so I can see how it looks.”

“I refuse.” As soon as Ning Jing finished speaking, the flower wreath flew out of his hand, a fragrant breeze caressed them, and it landed firmly on Su Liang’s head.

“Auntie looks so beautiful!” Zhengzheng clapped his little hands in praise.

Su Liang accepted Ning Jing’s hand-made gift on Zhengzheng’s behalf. The two enjoyed the sunset while slowly riding their horses back to the city.

“Tonight…” Su Liang said only two words.

Ning Jing nodded slightly, “A good day to give someone a farewell send-off..”
