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

Chapter 128 Blue Sky Background
Lan Kong has been in the harem for a long time, unlike Qiu Tang, he did not follow the official lady into the harem.Lan Kong was chosen by the eunuch to enter the palace as a maidservant.

So she has never had the experience of serving an official's lady, maybe this is why she is not as good as Qiutang and Sheng Wanyu has more heart.

Not one who has served since childhood, but one who has followed for many years, so naturally he will only be the master to any master.Even if you really want to be good to the master, you still don't allow the master to beat and scold you.

Also because I haven't followed my master for many years, it's inevitable that I can't do some things to make my master happy.But how can Lan Kong be blamed for this?

Lan Kong didn't have the life to serve the lady, so he became a palace maid.Before Lan Kong waited on Su Changmo, she was a maid in the palace.

She seldom goes out of the palace, so she can't imagine how colorful life outside the palace is.Although Lan Kong's personality is relatively cheerful, who can understand the sadness in Lan Kong's heart.

From entering the palace as a court lady, many concubines or empresses have risen from officials to nobles in the palace.They all have their own personal maids, and they don't completely trust Lan Kong and order them with confidence.

Even if they didn't say anything, Lan Kong knew it in his heart.In fact, it is very normal, after all, they have followed these young ladies since childhood, not like they just lived in this harem all the time.

To put it mildly, Lan Kong is a maidservant.But maybe only Lan Kong himself understands that he is just a court lady doing rough work.

In fact, Lan Kong basically never served any concubines or women in the palace, because those young ladies born in high families are arrogant and self-willed, and they are always a little worried about maids who are not their own.

After Lan Kong had been in the deep palace for a long time, he naturally understood this.So I don't deliberately try to please these, I can only do some relatively difficult work.

Qiutang is really happy to be able to make Su Changmo, who is the emperor, and the high-ranking empress worry about her.Qiutang entered the palace with the empress, so she was considered a palace maid.

But at least she has seen it, and she can leave the palace at any time with the empress.Unlike myself, perhaps only with special approval can I go out of the palace to buy something.

In the past, the concubines or noble ladies were all kind to the maids around them, and they could just take advantage of these humble maids, and they could beat and scold them at will, which was common.

When Su Changmo ascended to the throne of the emperor, perhaps because too many maidservants in the past could leave the palace, so his long-term harem can be regarded as a sensible maidservant in the palace, and then he was pointed out by the chief eunuch to serve Su Chang Mo has become a person in front of the imperial court.

In fact, it's not that Lan Kong doesn't want to go out of the palace. After being a court lady for a long time, he is inevitably tired of the storm in the deep palace.But Lan Kong is different from Qiu Tang, there is no one who treats each other sincerely, so he did not leave the palace.

Perhaps it was because Qiutang was Sheng Wanyu's maidservant, so Qiutang's temper had always been very gentle. She didn't have the mentality of being superior just because she was the maidservant of the empress.

Qiutang has the innocence of a daughter, but she also has loyalty to her master.For Lan Kong, he also wanted to serve a master sincerely, but who would give himself this opportunity?

At that time, when Qiutang went to study pharmacology with Doctor Xu, only for the sake of Sheng Wanyu's well-being, Lan Kong also felt Qiutang's loyalty from the bottom of his heart.

Maybe it's because Qiutang has too many personalities or experiences that Lan Kong doesn't have. Qiutang followed the empress into the palace, and the two of them didn't get along for a long time.

But the relationship between the two is good friends, and Lan Kong also appreciates the beauty of life in Qiutang.

What Qiutang and Lan Kong talked about the most was Sheng Wanyu, the current empress.Whenever Qiutang mentioned Sheng Wanyu, she didn't feel that there was something wrong with her master.

Instead, she talked about Sheng Wanyu's kindness to her everywhere, remembering Qiutang once said happily that Sheng Wanyu never regarded herself as a lowly handmaid, but regarded herself as a sister and a relative who accompanied her.

When Lan Kong heard such words, he really felt how lucky Qiutang was.Not to mention the noble status of the empress, just relying on the word "sister" is not the relationship that a lady and a maid should have.

At that time, Lan Kong also sincerely told Qiu Tang how much he envied her.

Listening to Qiutang's various compliments on Sheng Wanyu, and seeing Qiutang's smiling face every day, Lan Kong felt that Qiutang could change his mood for the better.

Perhaps because of getting along with her for many days, Lan Kong seemed to know many of Sheng Wanyu's advantages.So for Sheng Wanyu, the empress, Lan Kong also wanted to serve her.

Lan Kong already felt grateful for being a personal servant by Su Changmo's side.But if Lan Kong can choose, Lan Kong still hopes to serve the empress like Qiutang.

But how can this choice be chosen by Lan Kong?
Originally, Lan Kong thought that being able to follow Su Changmo, the emperor, was much happier than his own life before.But hearing Qiutang's frequent boasting, Lan Kong still hopes to serve Sheng Wanyu.

Maybe everyone is like this, life is better than before, and you feel as if you are attached to it.But if you know that there are better choices, you will feel a little sad, hoping that there will be better choices.

Fortunately, Lan Kong has been somewhat contented since following Su Changmo as a maid.Because I am no longer a palace maid who can be ridiculed wantonly.

Becoming a person in front of the imperial court is no longer a maidservant who can be beaten and scolded at will.Moreover, although Su Changmo was relatively indifferent and sometimes moody, he did not treat his servants as a toy to vent his anger arbitrarily.

Lan Kong was still very fortunate that the chief eunuch at that time chose him as the candidate to serve the imperial court.

Although Qiutang is no longer in the palace, where did she go?But Lan Kong seems to have got the life he wanted, which is to be able to serve Sheng Wanyu.

No one would be willing to be a court lady to serve the master, but if the fate is like this, naturally they still hope to be a good master's handmaid.

Maybe it's due to various reasons, even Lan Kong himself didn't expect Su Changmo to ask her to serve Sheng Wanyu instead of Qiutang.

But since you are here, let yourself take good care of Qiutang and take care of her empress.

Seeing that Sheng Wanyu and Su Changmo were still not ready to eat this exquisite meal, Lan Kong took the initiative to put some exquisite dishes into Sheng Wanyu and Su Changmo's bowls, and then said: "Your majesty, empress, let's eat Let's get something. Madam, you are still pregnant, you should have some food for the prince."

These words seemed to make Sheng Wanyu think of Qiutang, and every time she had a meal, Qiutang tried to persuade herself to eat something.Sometimes children are mentioned, Lan Kong's words seem to be very similar to Qiu Tang's words.

Sheng Wanyu glanced at Lan Kong, and Lan Kong also looked at Sheng Wanyu.Although Lan Kong and Qiutang are not far apart in age, Lan Kong is not her Qiutang after all.

Looking at Lan Kong's face, Sheng Wanyu seemed to feel how sad Qiutang's departure was again.In the past, it was always Qiutang who was by the side, but now that Qiutang is not there, it is another person who is there.

Sheng Wanyu didn't eat, neither did Su Changmo.

This time Su Changmo didn't have the heart to eat, so he didn't persuade Sheng Wanyu either.

Perhaps because the recent events seemed to need to be vented, neither Sheng Wanyu nor Su Changmo persuaded each other, and wanted to let themselves act according to their mood.

For a long time, Su Changmo and Sheng Wanyu just looked at the dish without touching their chopsticks to taste it.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, servants, go and heat up the dishes so that you can eat them later."

Lan Kong took the dishes and went to the imperial dining room on his own.

"Master Rong, Lord Bai."

Lan Kong left Sheng Wanyu's room, walked to the gate of Nianwan Palace, and looked at Rong Ziqing and Bai Xiu standing there looking into the distance.

"How are the emperor and empress feeling today?" Rong Ziqing seemed to hope to hear that they were okay, not too worried.

Because if so, perhaps Rong Ziqing seemed to hesitate even more.

Bai Xiu actually wanted to ask, because their relationship with Su Changmo and Sheng Wanyu is not only the gift of a monarch and minister, but also the relationship of friends.That's why I care more about their feelings.

Su Changmo's apologetic words this afternoon are still echoing in Bai Xiu's ears. How could Bai Xiu disregard the feelings of Su Changmo and Sheng Wanyu and bring even more desperate news.

"Master Rong, Lord Bai, the emperor and the empress are in a bad mood, and they didn't eat." Lan Kong said.

Thinking of Sheng Wanyu's expression and Su Changmo's expression, it seemed that for the first time they felt that they were also very fragile.

I thought that the emperor and the empress were the ones with the most rights, and there would be no disturbances to distract my mind, but there was always some sadness that made people frown deeply.

Lan Kong's words seemed to make Rong Ziqing feel that today is still the best time to tell, or whether he can tell the latest progress of Ningxiang Pavilion today.

Bai Xiu felt that even if he didn't talk about the relationship, maybe the purchase of Ningxiang Pavilion was enough to worry Su Changmo and Sheng Wanyu.

"Master Rong, Lord Bai, do you two have a clue?"

Lan Kong's intuition told himself that Rong Ziqing and Bai Xiu seemed to have something to say but couldn't.

So she asked them, because she also cared about Qiutang's affairs.Lan Kong felt a little sad when he didn't find any traces of Qiutang in the afternoon.

Qiutang is her best friend in the palace, and she will also feel sorry and pitiful for Qiutang's departure.

"You go down first." Rong Ziqing seemed unwilling to say more, and let Lan Kong go down.

Lan Kong also knew that he was indeed no better than Qiutang, and he didn't have the qualifications to ask too many questions, so he went down with the dishes.

"Master Rong, do we have to talk?"

It seems that today's hesitation is much more than before. When did Bai Xiu, who has always been decisive in doing things, have these difficult thoughts.

"Let's talk, if you don't say it, there will be no new progress, and the emperor and empress won't be worried?"

Perhaps the decision to say or not will make Su Changmo and Sheng Wanyu feel uncomfortable.Let's just say it, this is Rong Ziqing's choice.

"I just hope it doesn't escalate, we're already overwhelmed."

Bai Xiu's exclamation seems to be just wishful thinking. With so many thoughts and such a long time, they have been just investigating, but they have not been able to stop the spread of the matter.

"En." Rong Ziqing's voice seemed to always like to answer these difficult questions with "en."

Rong Ziqing and Bai Xiu still walked into Sheng Wanyu's room.

"Bai Xiu, Ziqing, you are back."

Sheng Wanyu was the first to see Rong Ziqing and Bai Xiu walking in.

Because Su Changmo seemed to be still thinking about something, and Sheng Wanyu's voice made Su Changmo look at Bai Xiu and Rong Ziqing who came in.

"Your majesty, empress, we have returned from Ningxiang Pavilion."

Rong Ziqing replied to Sheng Wanyu's words, and Bai Xiu also responded in agreement.

"Did you find anything?"

Su Changmo asked Bai Xiu and Rong Ziqing, because he always believed that the clues would be presented at the speed they should.

"A few days ago, I discovered a new problem in Ningxiang Pavilion. I observed it for a few days, and today I think it's time to tell the emperor and empress. Because the problem has been determined."

Bai Xiu said what he had learned a few days ago.
