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

Chapter 109 Being challenged
Time passed quickly, even a few people have never walked on this road today, and it was the two of them who stood and told the true meaning of love for a long time.

"Bai Xiu, I have to go back first. It's getting late, and the empress will look for me." Qiutang watched the time go by, thinking that Sheng Wanyu had just become a queen and had many tedious things to do, so she told Bai Xiu that she wanted to leave up.

Bai Xiu looked at Qiutang, feeling so reluctant for the first time. "When will we meet again?" In fact, after hearing Bai Xiu's long-term love words, Qiu Tang didn't want to leave so early, but Sheng Wanyu's position in her heart was no less than Bai Xiu's.

Now that Bai Xiu is an official, he must be much busier than before.He lives in the White Mansion, so the chances of entering the palace to face the saint must have decreased, but he himself is in the palace, serving Sheng Wanyu and cannot leave at any time.So when the two meet again, it may be half a month, or it may be a few days.

"In a few days, we will see you after the wedding between the empress and the emperor is over." Qiu Tang also wanted to see Bai Xiu.However, compared with the former Fourth Prince's Mansion, there are more people in the palace, and they talk more.Qiu Tang didn't want the empress to be a queen when rumors spread that the queen's servants were ignorant of etiquette and had frequent contacts with adults.

It just happened to be spent these few days thinking about how to answer Bai Xiu, whether to accept it freely or reject it against her will, Qiu Tang will figure it out in these few days.

"The emperor's wedding, I will also come." Bai Xiu told Qiutang what he said, that night the emperor's queen got married, and they could meet.

"You want to tell me the answer that day, would you like to marry me?" Bai Xiu seemed to have said this many times, but Qiu Tang didn't feel bored, and felt even more blissful.

"Okay, I'll tell you that day." Qiutang replied, then looked at Bai Xiu and said, "I'll be leaving first."

"En." Bai Xiu said.

Qiutang walked to the end of this path, and then walked towards Nianwan Palace.

"Your Majesty, will Qiutang come back?" Bai Xiu asked after being silent for a while.

Su Changmo is the person Bai Xiu admires the most, and it seems that only what he says makes Bai Xiu feel hopeful.

"Yes, I will definitely find her back." Su Changmo saw that Bai Xiu had lost confidence due to love, and gave the necessary answer.Qiutang will definitely come back, and Bai Xiu and Qiutang will definitely be together happily.

"Your Majesty, I can now understand how Lord Rong felt when she lost Princess Rong. It was the fear of the unknown. I didn't know where they were, and I didn't know if they were okay? They disappeared from my life suddenly, but they didn't stay behind. Any words. You don't know if they will come back, where are they now?"

"I feel that I can't be sure of their safety with all my heart and soul. I don't know anything. The only thing I know is that they must be missing." Bai Xiu's voice made Su Changmo uncomfortable. Everyone he valued seemed to be a little rough and thorns, just like Rong Ziqing and Bai Xiu.

"Bai Xiu, Qiu Tang will definitely come back safely." Su Changmo looked at Bai Xiu with eyes that seemed to be telling about the loss of his love, this look was so familiar. , as if there was such a painful look in a person's eyes.

"Your Majesty, when will Qiutang come back?" In these words, there was deep regret for not being able to keep up with the development of things.

"I want to know too." Sheng Wanyu didn't know, if she knew, she wouldn't have to be driven by worries.

"Mother, how did Qiutang disappear?" Bai Xiu now wants to know the whole process of Qiutang's disappearance, and then analyze why Qiutang disappeared.

"This morning, I and the empress had dinner in Nianwan Palace. At that time, Qiutang was still by my side. Later, Qiutang went out." Su Changmo told Bai Xiu the last time and place he saw Qiutang.

"When I woke up, I saw the cold soup on the table. Qiutang has always been very careful in her work. If the soup is cold, it will not be effective for the medicine, so Qiutang never lets the soup be cooled by the wind. I am facing the door. I called out to Qiutang a few times, but she didn't answer me. Normally she would be here, but this time she wasn't here. I was a little worried, so I called her good friend Lan Kong in the palace."

"I asked Lan Kong with the emperor, and she said that Qiutang would go to the Tai Hospital every day to learn about medicinal materials and skills. Lan Kong said that she had seen Qiu Tang today, and Qiu Tang also said that she would go to the Tai Hospital in the afternoon. Later we asked Doctor Xu came to Qiutang to learn from him, and Doctor Xu also said that Qiutang would go to him to study every day."

"However, Qiutang didn't go to the imperial hospital today. Imperial physician Xu also felt very strange about this. Because Qiutang went to study with imperial physician Xu by herself, and she was very serious. Therefore, both the emperor and I felt that Qiutang might be here. He was kidnapped on the way to Tai Hospital."

Sheng Wanyu told Bai Xiu what they thought.But why?Hearing these words, Bai Xiu became more worried.His Qiu Tang doesn't know the slightest bit of martial arts, if he is taken away by someone, he has no room to resist at all.Where will Qiutang be taken?Why did they kidnap Qiutang?

Bai Xiu really wanted to know the answers to these questions.All the people who wanted to get together so much made Bai Xiu ask.

"Your majesty, empress, why did they take Qiutang away? Why?" Bai Xiu asked Sheng Wanyu and Su Changmo, because he hadn't thought of a reasonable connection between the two until now.Princess Rong's status is noble, but Qiutang's status is relatively low, so what is the relationship between the two?
But who can answer this question?Su Changmo had some thoughts, but he didn't want to say it.Because if that is the case, the situation can be said to be very serious, and the impact and blow to everyone will be painful.

"I don't know why Qiutang disappeared like Hua'er? Could it be that she and Hua'er have something in common?" Sheng Wanyu also searched for similarities between the two in her thoughts.

"Mother, I have thought about this question, but I don't have a very suitable answer." Bai Xiu couldn't accurately see the similarities between Qiutang and Shangguan's paintings, but felt that these two things seemed to be impossible to analyze separately.

Su Changmo watched the two of them keep thinking in his mind, Su Changmo was thinking whether to tell them or not.Tell them that Su Changmo feels that the speed of development of the matter can be controlled, because everyone may be able to know who the other party is and why.But after speaking out, not only Sheng Wanyu and her own mood were affected, but everyone's.

"Slave sees the emperor, empress." It was the eunuch next to Su Changmo who came.

"Who let you in?" Su Changmo was thinking about a serious problem when he was interrupted by the eunuch. Su Changmo's voice was cold and frightening.Su Changmo made it very clear, don't let people come in to interrupt them, this stupid eunuch still came in.

Ever since Su Changmo had Sheng Wanyu by his side, he has always been in a good mood.But because of the matter of Shangguan's painting, Su Changmo has become angry more and more recently.Knowing that Qiutang is missing today, the anger seems to be unable to subside.Because Qiutang's departure seemed to warn him that someone was challenging his ability.

No one in Su Changmo's subordinates found Qiutang's trace or any suspicious person, as if he was telling the other party about his incompetence.For the always shrewd Su Changmo, it was a challenge and a humiliation.Challenge his management skills and humiliate his thinking skills.

In Xining country, there are basically no people who dare to do this.This can be regarded as a small clue, Su Changmo began to doubt the origin of the other party.

"My slave is guilty, my slave is guilty! Lord Rong is here, and he is very anxious, so this slave came in to report." The eunuch knelt on the ground and kowtowed his head to the ground.

Hearing that it was Rong Ziqing who came, Su Changmo's voice made the eunuch feel a little relaxed: "Let Ziqing come in, you get out."

"Your servant will leave." The eunuch walked out, brought Rong Ziqing in, then retreated to close the door, and stood guard outside.

"I'm here to see the emperor, empress. Lord Bai is here too." Seeing that Bai Xiu was there, Rong Ziqing felt that the news he had received was correct.

"Ziqing, do you have any clues? Is there any whereabouts for Hua'er?" Sheng Wanyu would ask every time she saw Rong Ziqing.She always felt that Rong Ziqing was the most likely person to find Hua'er.

Even Rong Ziqing's expression was tinged with sadness, "No."

I heard these words a lot these days, but every time I heard them, I became more worried.

"Ziqing, why are you here today?" Su Changmo asked Rong Ziqing.Rong Ziqing should be looking for traces of Shangguan Hua at this time, or staring at the Ningxiang Pavilion, or waiting in Huaqing Palace, he shouldn't be here.

"Your Majesty, I heard that Qiutang, your maidservant, is also missing?" This is wrong, how did Rong Ziqing know.

"Ziqing, where are you today?" Su Changmo asked Rong Ziqing, he wanted to know where he knew it.

"Your Majesty, today I went to the garden that Hua'er used to like to go to." Su Changmo heard something wrong.

Bai Xiu seemed to have noticed it too, and asked, "Lord Rong, where did you get the news that Qiutang disappeared?"

Rong Ziqing looked at Bai Xiu and said, "I heard it from some boudoir ladies when I came out of the garden. I went to several places recently and there was no sign of it. I remembered that Hua'er liked that garden very much, so I asked again The owner of the garden came back recently. So I went to the garden."

When Rong Ziqing talked about today's itinerary, Su Changmo's expression became more and more solemn, and it seemed that he couldn't hide the similarities.The opponent's speed was too fast, and when they were still sad, the scenery outside had changed.

Rong Ziqing noticed an unknown expression in Su Changmo's eyes, as if he felt that he should not know about Qiutang.

"Ziqing, do you know that Qiutang's incident happened just before?" Su Changmo's words made Rong Ziqing feel that the speed of spreading to the outside world was too fast.

"The emperor means that it is impossible for things to spread so quickly." Rong Ziqing asked Su Changmo, but found that Bai Xiu's and Sheng Wanyu's expressions were getting more and more serious.

"My lord, Qiutang's disappearance was only in the afternoon. Up to now, it will not exceed three hours. But the speed of this news has already reached outside the palace. Is the opponent's attack too fierce, or is someone in the palace deliberately spreading the news? "Bai Xiu's words are what Su Changmo is worried about, because the speed of things seems to be a bit unusual.

"Although the emperor sent people out of the palace today to look for Bai Xiu, and also went to the gate of the palace to investigate. But from the beginning to the end, it seemed that he was looking for someone else, let alone Qiutang. A guard will know, it is impossible for other people in the capital to know."

Sheng Wanyu's words seemed to focus on what Rong Ziqing knew about the process. She looked at Rong Ziqing as she spoke, as if asking when Rong Ziqing knew about it?
"Your Majesty, the emperor, whether it is the guards or bodyguards in the palace, are always with the emperor. I don't think they will leak it." Bai Xiu believed those people, because at that time, he fought for the throne for Su Changmo. At that time, they all worked hard.

They are all people who can be trusted. Even if someone deliberately releases news now, Bai Xiu will not place suspicion and serious eyes on them.

In fact, there is no difference between a guard and a bodyguard.The guards are those who always stay in the palace and keep the palace calm and safe.The guards were the former guards of the Fourth Prince's Mansion, who were transferred to the palace because of their high skills and outstanding martial arts.
