Leng Wang Yu's Wife: The Concubine of the Black Belly

Chapter 107
Qiutang's disappearance has the same doubts as Hua'er's incident everywhere. It's just that the identities and personalities of the two may be slightly different, but they both seem to have an obvious similarity.Su Changmo didn't want to think about it, because if this commonality was the reason for their disappearance, Su Changmo and Sheng Wanyu might not be able to think about these things calmly.

Bai Xiu's rushing over caused Su Changmo and Sheng Wanyu to be pulled from their respective thoughts to the scene in front of them by Bai Xiu's words.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, where's Qiutang?" These words seemed to add another blow to Sheng Wanyu's heartache.

Bai Xiu didn't know where Qiutang went. In other words, Qiutang never looked for Bai Xiu, which can prove that Qiutang was kidnapped.

"Bai Xiu, Qiutang is gone." Sheng Wanyu answered Bai Xiu's anxious question with the most self-blaming words.

After hearing this, Bai Xiu looked like a person who lost something precious, his expression instantly changed from anxiety to the most genuine sadness and sadness.

If he could have foreseen today's situation, last night he would definitely not care about those so-called fame and other people's gossip, and spend more time with Qiutang.But Bai Xiu knew in his heart that even spending more time together would not be able to prevent Qiutang from disappearing today.

What Bai Xiu regretted the most was not last night, but every night he missed.Qiutang always cared about her status as a maid, so she rarely got too close to her.It used to be better in the palace, but now there are too many people in the palace, Qiutang sometimes sees too many people, and she won't come to her.

At that time, he was only a subordinate of Su Changmo in the fourth prince's mansion, but because the fourth prince ascended the throne as emperor, he also became a senior official of the fourth rank.Qiutang was even more afraid that others would say that she was greedy for vanity and wanted to marry a dignified fourth-rank official as his wife as a servant, so she mostly met Bai Xiu at quiet nights.

There are so many things going on recently that no one else understands enough, but only Bai Xiu knows that Qiutang has lost weight recently, and her mood is not as cheerful as before.In the past few days, I have been inquiring about the news with Rong Ziqing, looking everywhere, and as a result, I have less time to meet Qiutang.

The short reunion last night made Bai Xiu feel a little bit of joy after returning home.Thinking about seeing Qiutang a few more times in the past few days, it would be considered to tell her the progress of the matter, but he never guessed that he would know the news of Qiutang's disappearance on this normal afternoon.

Because Qiutang is just an ordinary maid with an ordinary status, why would someone want to kidnap her?On the way all the way to Ningxiang Pavilion, Bai Xiu thought about this problem, but there was no reason similar to Shangguan's painting.

When I came here, I was sure that Qiutang had disappeared, and the sadness that I had restrained seemed to disappear at this moment, just as completely as Qiutang's disappearance.Bai Xiu's sadness is the kind of self-blame, regret, but also reluctance.

He blamed himself for not being able to protect Qiutang well, and only thought that no one would attack Qiutang, so he could neglect his protection.What I regret is that I didn't ask Su Changmo for a marriage because I was also concerned about those rumors.What is reluctance is to lose Qiutang before he has a deep love with Qiutang.

Su Changmo felt that an atmosphere called sadness and self-blame was shrouded in his surroundings at this second, and he was in a better mood.

"Bai Xiu, I know you are very sad now. But we still have to face this matter calmly." Su Changmo told Bai Xiu not to be sad, but how could Bai Xiu do it.Facing this matter calmly, how could Bai Xiu not know, but if the one he loves suddenly disappears, no matter who it is, he probably won't be as harmless as the autumn wind sweeping away the fallen leaves.

This is the first time that Bai Xiu did not give any response to Su Changmo's words, because his thoughts were all stuck in the recollection of Qiutang.

The scene of that day seemed to never pass in Bai Xiu's mind.

"Qiutang, I've been waiting for you for a long time." Bai Xiu appeared at the gate of Nianwan Palace, and said to Qiutang who came out of it.

"Bai Xiu, shouldn't you be leaving the palace now?" Qiutang was a little surprised to see Bai Xiu appearing in front of her.This morning the emperor made Sheng Wanyu the empress, and also made Rong Ziqing and Bai Xiu officials. Now it's time to thank you and leave the palace.Why is Bai Xiu still here?

"I should leave the palace, but I have something to tell you." Bai Xiu came here to see Qiutang, and wanted to tell his thoughts today.

"You have something to say." Qiutang was talking, waiting for what Bai Xiu wanted to tell her.

"Qiutang, I'm an official now, you marry me and come back to the White Mansion with me." Bai Xiu expressed his thoughts very bluntly.Today he has become a court official and can give Qiutang a better life, so she hopes that Qiutang will agree to marry him.

"Bai Xiu, what are you talking about?" Qiutang knew that she heard correctly, but she was still a little surprised.

"Qiutang, marry me and be the wife of my Baifu." Bai Xiu continued talking about his love for Qiutang.

Qiutang saw the official uniform Bai Xiu was wearing, and based on his understanding of official costumes, Bai Xiu should be a fourth-rank official now.Qiu Tang was very happy that Bai Xiu could become a senior official of the fourth rank, but felt that the distance between herself and him seemed even further away.

In the past, he was just a subordinate of Su Changmo, so he felt that he was not a good match for him.Not to mention that he is now a fourth-rank official, but he is still an insignificant little servant.The relationship between the two was indeed getting better and better, and Qiutang's affection for him gradually sublimated, but after Su Changmo ascended the throne, the distance between Qiutang and him gradually widened.

"Bai Xiu, come with me. This is Nianwan Palace, it's inconvenient for us to talk here." Qiu Tang took Bai Xiu to the side road where there were fewer people, and then they started their conversation .

"Qiutang, will you promise me?" Bai Xiu is now only waiting for Qiutang's answer, he wants to give Qiutang a happy life.

"Bai Xiu, I don't think it's suitable now." Qiutang didn't want to refuse in her heart, but due to the different identities of the two parties, Qiutang still felt that it was not suitable now.

"Where is it inappropriate? Does Qiutang not want to marry me?" Bai Xiu felt that there might be some reason why Qiutang refused to agree, but he still asked Qiutang and waited for her answer.

"Bai Xiu, you are a fourth-rank official now, and I'm just a servant girl by the empress's side. We are not suitable." Qiutang is kind-hearted and cautious in doing things, but maybe because she is too cautious, she is always entangled. on one's own identity.

At that time in the fourth prince's mansion, she was a little concerned about other people's eyes, and felt that she was not worthy of her.Now that she has these four official positions, she feels more and more that the gap between the two of us is getting bigger and bigger.

If I don't let her feel at ease anymore, I guess there will be fewer chances to meet her in the future. "Qiutang, does it mean that I have always been a fourth-rank official, so you have always refused to marry me?" Bai Xiu directly asked the most important question he wanted to ask, and the rest were not as important as this sentence. .

Qiutang hesitated a bit, she liked Bai Xiu.She was very happy that Bai Xiu could say that he married her and didn't dislike her humble status.But maybe he was too incompetent, so he could only be a slave, but Bai Xiu took the position of an official with his own ability.

Qiu Tang didn't want Bai Xiu to be gossiped behind his back because of him, and in Xining country, he still valued being well-matched.Bai Xiu could marry an official woman as the Zheng family, or he could marry Xiao Biyu from a famous family.But no matter what, you can't marry a humble slave to be a Zhengshi.

After Qiutang thought about it, what he said made Bai Xiu feel that Qiutang loved himself too much. "Bai Xiu, you can find a suitable official lady to be your wife. I'm not suitable for you."

Bai Xiu seemed to think that Qiutang had finished speaking, so he was about to speak.But hearing Qiutang's other words, Bai Xiu only felt that Qiutang was worthy of the position of Mrs. Baifu.

"Bai Xiu, if you still have affection for me, you can take me as a concubine after you marry the official wife." Qiutang felt a little sad, but also very sincere.Bai Xiu was extremely shocked by her words, it was the first time he heard a woman tell him to marry another woman as his wife instead of himself.

Qiutang knew that she was just a lowly court lady, how could she possibly marry a court official as her regular wife.Qiutang didn't complain, she could only say that maybe she was born like this, so she had to be someone else's concubine.

When Bai Xiu proposed to accept her as his wife, Qiu Tang felt as if her heart was being cared for.Qiutang works as a maid by Sheng Wanyu's side, and although she doesn't have much work, Sheng Wanyu treats her very well.Compared with many maidservants, Qiutang was already much happier.

Moreover, he was in the imperial palace, and he was the queen's personal maid.Because Sheng Wanyu won Su Changmo's sacred heart, others in the palace would not treat her too badly.But, no matter what, Qiutang's status is low, how can she be compared with those officials and ladies.

When Bai Xiu's words were like a warm spring water irrigating her heart, Qiutang felt sweetness in her heart.Bai Xiu has feelings for himself, and he doesn't mind his low status, but he also has a lot of feelings that I am not qualified.

Bai Xiu knew what Qiutang cared about, but he never thought that Qiutang's feelings for him could go so deep.A kind of emotion appeared in Bai Xiu, "Qiutang, I want you to be the wife of my Baifu, not a concubine who doesn't even have a title."

That's what Bai Xiu thinks, he loves Qiutang because he hopes to give her a better life, not because he doesn't even want to give her a formal title.When he heard Qiutang's words, Bai Xiu's shock was more of a flowing warmth.

All women know that men can marry three wives and four concubines at will, and there is no way to stop them.There may be some women who are of noble status and may be able to block foreign wives and concubines, but they may also be very small.Not to mention that I am just a humble maid, for me, maybe I can spend the rest of my life with an ordinary guard, which is fine.

When Bai Xiu was in the palace, Qiu Tang couldn't compare.Now that she has already taken the official position of the fourth rank, how can she marry a humble self as a regular wife? Qiutang thinks it is impossible to think about it.

But when Bai Xiu mentioned the title of wife again, Qiu Tang felt moved and surprised, as if she missed her very much today, and always made herself feel that the one she loves is a man who can be entrusted to her for a lifetime.

But Qiutang still didn't agree, because she really wasn't worthy: "Bai Xiu, I know you are kind to me, but if I marry you as my wife, I'm afraid you will be ridiculed in the court. My identity I am already very satisfied to be your concubine."

Qiutang looked at Bai Xiu with the most innocent eyes, she did not have the qualifications to be blessed to sit in the seat of Mrs. Baifu.

Bai Xiu looked at Qiutang in front of him, and felt that he was very lucky to meet a woman like Qiutang.

Qiutang has a gentle personality, and she also repays people with sincerity. She will put herself in other people's shoes, and will help you when you are in trouble. If you can't help, she is willing to listen and comfort you. soul.

Ever since he got to know Qiutang, Bai Xiu felt that there was a little more sweetness in his life, and it was no longer a boring and boring life.

"Qiutang, I, Bai Xiu, just ask you, would you like to be my wife in the White Mansion? As long as you want to, I don't care even if there are lots of comments." Before in the palace, there were occasional gossips, Bai Xiu knew Qiutang Tang took it to heart.Considering her feelings, Bai Xiu also kept a distance from her.

Bai Xiu didn't mind these other people's comments at all, but he still cared more about whether he could get married with Qiutang.

The answer Bai Xiu wants to know may be Qiutang's most wavering question. To be the wife of the Bai Mansion is a great temptation for Qiutang, who has been at the bottom since birth.

Because if she and Bai Xiu get married and give birth to a child, as Mrs. Bai, the child will be the legitimate son and daughter.Although the concubine's daughter is also a young lady, she is not as popular as the concubine's daughter.
