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

Chapter 244
This morning, Sheng Wanyu woke up, and Su Changmo was sitting at the table, as if thinking about something.

Sheng Wanyu asked him: "What are you thinking?"

Knowing that Sheng Wanyu woke up, Su Changmo looked back at her and said, "Bai Xiu found it, and found it at Xu Yun's residence."

"Well, where is he now?" Sheng Wanyu asked Su Changmo why Bai Xiu wasn't in the palace now.

"After the guards sent out yesterday failed to find Bai Xiu in the White Mansion, they went to the Ningxiang Pavilion to find them, and then went to many other places but failed to find them. When he returned to the gate of the palace, he happened to meet the guards who went out to look for him, so I went again, this time I went directly to Xu Yun's residence and found Bai Xiu."

"Bai Xiu drank a lot of wine at Xu Huan's residence last night, so after the head guard came to report to me last night, I asked them to send him back to the White Mansion first. When he wakes up, he will enter the palace."

Su Changmo told Sheng Wanyu what happened after she fell asleep yesterday, and Sheng Wanyu understood Bai Xiu's whereabouts from it.

Sheng Wanyu asked Su Changmo again: "Did you gain anything last night?"

Su Changmo smiled, and said to Sheng Wanyu, "I caught Xu Xuan."

Although Sheng Wanyu didn't know what Su Changmo's specific plan was, but Su Changmo deliberately let all the people in Nianwan Palace disperse last night, so he must be waiting for someone to come.

However, Sheng Wanyu seemed to be surprised that it was Xu Xuan who came.After all, he just disappeared in the world of everyone yesterday.

Su Changmo saw something that Sheng Wanyu didn't understand, so he said to Sheng Wanyu: "When Rong Ziqing and Bai Xiu come, I will tell you my plan."

Sheng Wanyu thought that it would be better to explain together after they came, so she agreed.

Half an hour later, Rong Ziqing came.

When he saw Su Changmo and Sheng Wanyu, he asked, "Your majesty, I don't know what's going on today, but I received the emperor's order early in the morning."

Su Changmo looked at Rong Ziqing and said, "Ziqing, you don't need to go to Ningxiang Pavilion today, there are more clues worth knowing in this Nianwan Palace."

When Rong Ziqing heard Su Changmo's words, what clue could it be?

At this time, Bai Xiu also happened to enter Nianwan Palace and walked to the door of the house.Rong Ziqing saw Bai Xiu and asked, "Master Bai, where did you go last night?"

Su Changmo answered for Bai Xiu: "The last guard was found at Xu Yun's residence yesterday."

Bai Xiu said to these friends: "I was in a bad mood yesterday, so I went to Xu Yun's residence. The emperor sent someone to look for me. I was too drunk, so I came to Nianwan Palace this morning."

"Master Bai, drinking can hurt your health, and it's useless to use alcohol to drown your sorrows."

Rong Ziqing told Bai Xiu that drinking could not make him feel less sad, because Rong Ziqing, a person who doesn't like drinking, also used this method to relieve pain.

However, there may be a moment of relaxation when you drink it.However, it is short-lived, and when you wake up, the sadness may be heavier.This way of unwinding is far better than talking with people.

"Bai Xiu, Ziqing, the reason why I asked you to come so early today is because someone from Nian Wan Palace came last night."

Su Changmo's words seemed a little serious, which made Rong Ziqing a little worried, and Bai Xiu also thought who would be the one who came to Nianwan Palace last night?
"Who is it?" Rong Ziqing asked Su Changmo.

Su Changmo said to them, "It's Xu Xuan."

As soon as he said this, Bai Xiu looked at Su Changmo, he never thought that Xu Xuan would come to the palace again.And, why?

Rong Ziqing was also very curious, he didn't understand why he came to Nianwan Palace even if the defense in the palace was weak?

Seeing Su Changmo's expression, Rong Ziqing asked: "Your Majesty, why is Xu Xuan here?"

"Bai Xiu, how much do you know about Xu Yun's family?" Su Changmo suddenly asked Bai Xiu to see how much Bai Xiu knew.

"Weichen and Xu Huan met on the street, and Xu Huan seldom mentioned his family to Weichen. Weichen only knew that he was born in an ordinary family. As for who his parents are, but there are other family members, I don't know. .”

Bai Xiu thought that every time he asked about Xu Yun's family, he always avoided it.But, does this have anything to do with Xu Yun's coming to Nianwan Palace last night?
Sheng Wanyu heard that Su Changmo was asking family members, and felt as if before that, Sheng Wanyu and Su Changmo had asked the chief eunuch the same question, but the person who asked was not Xu Yun, but someone else.

"Your Majesty, could it be that Xu Yun's coming to Nianwan Palace has something to do with his family? Or does he have family members in Nianwan Palace?"

Rong Ziqing thought about the reason why Su Changmo asked this question, and said to him.

"Ziqing, Baixiu, do you still remember that there was a maid named Lan Kong beside me before?"

Rong Ziqing and Bai Xiu remembered that they had seen that court lady before.

Bai Xiu replied: "I remember, that person is still Qiutang's friend."

Through Su Changmo's words, Sheng Wanyu can confirm that Xu Xuan and Lan Kong are relatives.

Rong Ziqing also remembered Lan Kong's appearance, and said to Su Changmo, "I have an impression of that man, too."

Su Changmo said: "She is Xu Yun's biological sister."

Su Changmo's words shocked Bai Xiu and Rong Ziqing. Even though they didn't know that Xu Yun had a younger sister, it seemed that she shouldn't be a slave in this palace.Moreover, since Xu Xuan is Su Changmo's subordinate, even if his family background is not rich, his basic life is still acceptable.

It seems that there is no need for the younger sister to enter the palace as a maid, so why Xu Yun's younger sister became a maid in the palace.Moreover, as far as Bai Xiu and Rong Ziqing knew, Lan Kong was not a short-term court lady, but a few years old.

Bai Xiu felt that he really knew too little about Xu Huan, he didn't even know that he had a younger sister in the palace.

"How did the emperor know?" Rong Ziqing asked Su Changmo, hoping to know how Su Changmo determined the relationship between Xu Xuan and Lan Kong.

"You know because of the previous incident?" Sheng Wanyu suddenly said to Su Changmo.

Su Changmo looked at Sheng Wanyu, and replied, "Yes."

"Did anything happen before? Your Majesty, Your Majesty." Rong Ziqing continued to ask.

And this matter was told by Sheng Wanyu, because she said it in more detail than Su Changmo.

"Ziqing, Baixiu, someone tampered with my medicine before." Sheng Wanyu told what happened a few days ago.

Rong Ziqing asked with great concern: "Did the empress do anything?"

"I'm fine, but the person behind the scenes that I and the emperor found out is Lan Kong."

Sheng Wanyu's words made Rong Ziqing feel that it was another accident. It turned out to be Lan Kong, the servant girl who showed concern for the empress everywhere.

After Bai Xiu heard this, he felt very confused.Lan Kong is Qiutang's friend, why did he harm the empress?And why did Lan Kong conceal his relationship with Xu Xuan's brother and sister?

"What is the purpose of Lan Kong's medicine?" Bai Xiu asked Sheng Wanyu.

It's just that these words seem to be slowly coming from Qiutang's disappearance.

"Bai Xiu, you know that Lan Kong and Qiutang are friends, but do you know what kind of person Qiutang thinks Lan Kong is?"

Sheng Wanyu asked Bai Xiu about this, hoping to learn some information about Lan Kong, a friend from him.

Although Sheng Wanyu knew that Lan Kong was Qiutang's friend, she didn't listen to Qiutang herself, but from Lan Kong or Bai Xiu.Therefore, Sheng Wanyu didn't know what kind of person this Lan Kong was in Qiutang's heart.

Rong Ziqing listened to Sheng Wanyu asking Bai Xiu about what Lan Kong was in Qiutang's heart, and felt that there was something wrong with the friendship between Lan Kong and Qiutang.

However, Rong Ziqing thought that since Lan Kong could drug Sheng Wanyu, it seemed that she had a purpose long ago.

Su Changmo listened to Sheng Wanyu's question, and felt that Sheng Wanyu seemed to have Qiutang's factor in the matter of Lan Kong.

"Back to empress, weichen once heard Qiutang say that empress empress had conflicts with the emperor during those few days when she was having trouble sleeping and eating, and Lan Kong was the one who told Qiutang at that time."

Bai Xiu's words seemed to bring the focus back to something else. Could it be that Lan Kong knew everything that happened between Su Changmo and Sheng Wanyu like the palm of his hand?
Although both Su Changmo and Sheng Wanyu understood, Lan Kong, who was in front of the imperial court, should have known about the quarrel that day.But it seems that Lan Kong told Qiutang that the sincerity was only out of the intention of a friend?Maybe it's because I never believed a word of Lan Kong from the beginning to the end, so I feel that Lan Kong's behavior seems to be the next problem everywhere.

"Weichen remembers that Qiutang was very unhappy at that time. I heard Qiutang say that there was a court lady who comforted her and was friends with her. If I want to come now, that person should be Lan Kong. Therefore, I think In Qiutang's heart, Lan Kong is a friend."

Bai Xiu's words are somewhat tedious, but it seems that every word tells the reason why Qiutang and Lan Kong became friends, and also clearly points out the relationship between Lan Kong and Qiutang.

However, Sheng Wanyu still found a problem in Bai Xiu's words that seemed unimportant, but seemed to be related to the timeline.

Rong Ziqing felt that since Bai Xiu used the word "friend" to describe Qiutang and Lan Kong, it seemed that their relationship was very good.But why?Unexpectedly, she had to wait on the empress before, but later she wanted to drug her.The change is so great, from the word "loyalty" to a vicious person in an instant.

Su Changmo looked at Sheng Wanyu's frown, and knew that Sheng Wanyu must have something to ask: "Bai Xiu, when do you think Qiutang and Lan Kong became friends?"

Bai Xiu seemed to search for Qiutang's memory about Lan Kong, and then replied: "Qiutang started talking about Lan Kong with me when the empress was not feeling well, and she never mentioned it to me before. I think they became friends in the past few days."

Sheng Wanyu looked at Rong Ziqing and Bai Xiu and said, "Qiutang never mentioned Lan Kong to me."

Both Rong Ziqing and Bai Xiu felt a little surprised, because Qiutang and Sheng Wanyu were not ordinary masters and servants, they were like relatives, so it was possible to mention them.And with Qiutang's kind and cheerful personality, she should have mentioned it, at least she wouldn't have never mentioned this person in her words.

"Your Majesty, is it possible that, as Lord Bai said, Qiutang and Lan Kong met when the Empress was in poor health, because Lan Kong was the person in front of the imperial court? It's about my son, so I didn't mention this little thing."

Rong Ziqing suddenly felt that this possibility might be the reason why Qiutang didn't mention Lan Kong, and it could connect Bai Xiu's answers together.

However, Su Changmo's words seemed to make everything more premeditated, and it also made people feel Lan Kong's thoughts.
