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

Chapter 119
"Thank you." Holding the sword, Shangguan Hua said to Bai Xiu: "Let's go for a comparison. I heard Qiutang say that you are very good at martial arts. Let's see who is better and who is lower?"

Shangguanhua told Bai Xiu what she said, but Xu Huan felt that this woman was very cute, and she was more confident in her words than a sword.But seeing her smooth swordsmanship that day, it was indeed very high.

"Okay." Bai Xiu replied.

The two began to compare swords, and Xu Xuan knew Bai Xiu's swordsmanship.The swordplay changes quickly and seamlessly, making it easy for people to be dazzled and unable to attack.But Shangguan's swordplay is the same as that day, with subtle and slow changes that people can't detect.

Xu Shi, both of them are masters of swordsmanship, so time has passed, and the outcome is still undecided.

"Miss Shangguan's martial arts are really good." Bai Xiu also admired.Unexpectedly, a delicate woman can have such good martial arts.But thinking of Shangguan Hua's identity, maybe it's normal.

"We are not superior or inferior. Qiutang is right. Your swordsmanship is so superb and fast that it almost caught me off guard."

After this sword competition, Shangguan Hua also understood Bai Xiu's martial arts.

"Miss Shangguan has won the award, but we have no winners or losers." Bai Xiu said to Shangguan Hua.

Shangguan Hua walked towards Xu Yun who was watching, and said, "Let's try."

"Okay." Xu Xuan took Bai Xiu's sword, while Shangguan Hua used Xu Xuan's sword.

The figures of the two began to walk in the sun, Xu Xuan saw the face of Shangguan Hua in the sword competition, and found that Shangguan Hua at the time of the sword competition seemed to be more attractive than the Shangguan Hua who had just spoken.

Probably because I also like sword competitions, so I always feel that people who compete with swords have more beauty of hardness and softness than ordinary people.

Rigid and soft should have opposite meanings, but the Shangguan painting at the moment seems to interpret these two words very well.The swordsmanship looks tough, but there is a sense of suppleness inside.

The two swords fought each other, but the result was a tie.

"Your martial arts are also very good. It's a pity that I didn't beat any of you, and we are also tied." Putting down the sword, Shangguan Hua said, with a bit of disappointment in his tone.

"Miss Shangguan's martial arts is already very good among women. I think the result of the tie is very good, which means that we all have room for improvement and can motivate each other."

Xu Xuan expressed his opinion on the result and looked at Shangguan Hua's expression.

"That's true too. It's just that you and I are tied, so what about you and Bai Xiu, are you also tied?" Shangguan Hua asked Xu Wei, she was curious about the result of their sword competition.

"Just as Miss Shangguan expected, Bai Xiu and I are also tied." Xu Xuan told the result of their sword competition.

"Miss Shangguan probably doesn't know that before you came, Bai Xiu and I just had a sword fight, and the result was a draw. I didn't beat him, and he didn't beat me. We just finished the sword fight, so we chatted on the chair. And The content of our chat is the result of the sword fight."

Xu Xuan told Shangguan Hua everything before Shangguan Hua came.

"That's right, if I'm there next time for the sword competition, you can call me." Shangguan Hua seemed to like the sword competition very much, so he made this proposal.

"Okay, Miss Shangguan. If you are free, we will call you. Let us see if any of the three of us can beat the others." Xu Huan was a little happy when he heard Shangguan Hua's words. He had a good impression of Shangguan Hua .

From the sword dance that day, Xu Xuan became curious about this woman.Today, when I saw the conversation and the sword competition, I realized that this woman turned out to be the eldest lady of Shangguan Villa.With such a noble status, she is not savage in the slightest, she is a pure and innocent woman.

And listening to her, you will feel that she is a warm woman.Xu Huan's experience has always been bumpy, so he is looking forward to warmth.

He would be very happy if he could feel the warmth of his family, even if it was just for a moment.Bai Xiu is already a family member to him.But Bai Xiu is a man, so he can't give Xu Xuan a gentle feeling.

Whenever Xu Xuan saw women's gentle words to their husbands and children's kind calls to their parents on the streets of the capital, Xu Xuan was very envious.

Xu Huan's parents are no longer alive, so Xu Huan has never felt the joy of his family being alive.Maybe it's what I lack that makes me want something more.

Xu Xuan is looking forward to having a family of his own, Bai Xiu is one, but there are too few.The home of only the two of them is too desolate.

The smile that often appeared on the corner of Shangguan Hua's mouth seemed to be so innocent, which made Xu Xuan feel warm and seemed to be beating in his heart.It may be too impossible to feel warm with just a bright smile.But for someone who always lives in the disdain of others, a sincere smile is enough.

Xu Yun has been in this bustling capital city for a long time, and no one really paid attention to his daily life.Because of this, he met Bai Xiuhou and treated him as a relative.

Although it was the first time for Shangguan Hua to chat face to face, and it was only by chance.But her smile seems to make people feel that life is still full of hope.People in the low valley seem to be illuminated by the sun in an instant, even if it is only a short moment, but it makes people feel warm.

"Okay." Shangguan Hua replied, still smiling brightly.

"It seems that the martial arts of the three of us are equal." Bai Xiu walked over from the chair and said to Xu Huan and Shangguan Hua.

"Miss Shangguan said that we can call her when we have a sword competition in the future. Let's see which of the three of us has a better martial arts." Xu Huan told Bai Xiu and told him.

"Okay." Bai Xiu replied.

Compared with the sword, time has passed.Looking at the time, Shangguan Hua felt that it was time to find Sheng Wanyu.

"Return the sword to you." Shangguan Hua returned the sword to Xu Yun.

Then he said to them, "I'm going to find my sister."

"Okay." Bai Xiu replied.

Then Shangguan Hua left the yard and went to Su Changmo's study.

This was the first time Xu Huan saw Shangguan Hua face to face, and it was also the day when he knew the identity of Shangguan Hua.Afterwards, Shangguan Hua was rarely seen again, but in Xu Yun's heart, he always remembered the woman named Shangguan Hua.

In the days that followed, Xu Xuan gradually realized that Shangguan Hua liked Su Changmo's good friend Rong Ziqing.

I have met Rong Ziqing before, he is a very mature man, he is suitable for Shangguan Hua.Although Xu Xuan felt a little different after knowing it, he still thought that they were suitable and should stay together.

Hearing Bai Xiu's words now, I think Rong Ziqing must be very sad that Shangguan Hua is missing.In fact, in Xu Yun's heart, there were surprises and many worries.

Because Shangguan Hua is a very pure and beautiful woman, and she has strong martial arts skills.Xu Huan knew about her martial arts, but she suddenly disappeared, so she was worried.

"What happened next? What did Lord Rong say? Have you ever met Princess Rong?" Xu Xuan returned to reality from his previous memory.

"Master Rong said that he has rarely seen Princess Rong in recent days, and Princess Rong has turned him away in the past few days." Bai Xiu said.

"Since Princess Rong and Lord Rong are going to get married, they will definitely not reject Lord Rong without a reason." Xu Xuan is more thoughtful, so what he said is also very accurate.

"The answer given by Lord Rong at the time was that Princess Rong felt that the time to get together with Lord Rong was too short, so both parties need to calm down." Bai Xiu continued.

"And then? What did Master Rong do?" Xu Xuan felt that there was something wrong, so he asked again.

"Master Rong said that he visited Princess Rong a few times, but Princess Rong was determined, so Master Rong never saw Princess Rong again." Bai Xiu's words revealed the first doubt.

"That day the Empress asked, Master Rong explained the reason. After analysis and deduction, I found that Princess Rong had some problems, so I went to Ningxiang Pavilion with Master Rong. But the final result was that Princess Rong never returned to Huaqing Palace , and has since disappeared.”

Bai Xiu told Xu Xuan the final result and the connection of the fragments.

"Since Princess Rong finally appeared in Ningxiang Pavilion, let's go to Ningxiang Pavilion to find out. But are there any other clues?" Xu Xuan asked Bai Xiu, because he knew too little.

"My lord Rong and I went to the Ningxiang Pavilion to inquire. Although we didn't find the slightest trace of Princess Rong. But we found out that something happened in the Ningxiang Pavilion recently." Bai Xiu was going to tell Xu Xuan what happened in the Ningxiang Pavilion recently. .

Because Bai Xiu and Xu Xuan have a good relationship, and they both work for Su Changmo.So many people don't know about Ningxiang Pavilion, but Xu Yun does.He knew that Ningxiang Pavilion was currently under the management of Shangguan Hua, and as for who was behind it, Xu Xuan also knew that Sheng Wanyu was in charge.

"What's the matter?" Xu Huan was still surprised by the unexpected disappearance of Shangguan Hua, perhaps because it was Shangguan Hua.That's why Xu Yun, who has always been quiet, asked such detailed questions.

"Master Rong and I found out that there was a woman who came to make trouble before Ningxiang Pavilion." Bai Xiu replied to Xu Yun's words, and was going to tell him everything, hoping that he could help out with an idea.Because Bai Xiu was very sure of Xu Yun's ability.

Xu Yun's talent is not inferior to his own, and his thoughts and strategies are even higher than his own.Once in a matter, if it weren't for Xu Huan's wit and his sensitivity, maybe the matter would not have been resolved so smoothly.

This time I asked Xu Xuan to join the investigation, and asked him to investigate Princess Rong with myself, also because Xu Xuan's wisdom might be able to make things progress faster.

"Troubleshooting?" What kind of incident did Xu Xuan think would be related to Miss Qianjin of Shangguan Villa.As far as he knows, Ningxiang Pavilion is not an ordinary shop selling rouge.

It looks like it sells rouge and medicine, and the owner on the surface is also Shangguanhua.But in fact, although the rouge they sell are all young women and official ladies, most of the people who have the ability to buy are famous nobles and daughters of everyone.

So Ningxiang Pavilion is not as simple as people in the capital imagined.

"A few days ago, a woman who had never been in the capital appeared in Ningxiang Pavilion. She said in public that the ointments and rouge sold in Ningxiang Pavilion contained poisonous ingredients, which would harm the people who applied them. Many officials' daughters spread the word."

"Because of this incident, the turmoil in Ningxiang Pavilion will take a long time to calm down." Bai Xiu said.

"So, Princess Rong often doesn't paint the Qing Palace recently, is it because of this?" Xu Xuan was very clever, and quickly sensed what Bai Xiu was referring to.

"According to the people in the Ningxiang Pavilion, Princess Rong often appears in the Ningxiang Pavilion because of this matter. I also corresponded to what the maid said, so it should be like this." Bai Xiu thought about the news he had received before, and told Xu Yun who didn't know yet.
