I was furious when I found out. I had Qinghuan dragged away and given thirty lashes before I asked her, "Where did Qingjiu go?"
"Master, I don't know."
After Qinghuan finished speaking, she continued.
"Master, please let Qingjiu leave!"
"Qingjiu has no intention of getting married, just like me. The way you treat her makes her worry every day."
"Haven't you noticed that Qingjiu has lost a lot of weight? Other women gain weight during pregnancy, but she hasn't gained much weight, just her belly is bloated."
Hearing this, I looked directly at Qinghuan and asked, "You said Qingjiu is worried every day, what is she worried about?"
I had barely finished speaking.
Qinghuan raised her eyes and said, "Qingjiu, I'm afraid you're just having a passing fancy, and that you'll soon abandon her and let her grow old and die in this secluded mansion."
Although they were indeed bodyguards, they were still relatively freer compared to the concubines.
I said irritably, "On a whim? Was it just on a whim? Can't Qingjiu see how I feel about her? Can't any of you see it?"
Neither Hei Yi nor the others said anything.
Qinghuan opened her mouth and said, "I only saw your domineering nature, Master. You didn't even ask Qingjiu a single question, nor did you say much else, and you just took her..."
They were his bodyguards, not his bed warmers.
Do they think he likes this behavior?
It was clearly just a spur-of-the-moment decision.
I paused for a moment, then spoke gently, "Qinghuan, it's not what you think at all. I only took Qingjiu because I liked her. The reason I was in such a hurry wasn't because it was a spur-of-the-moment thing, but because I was afraid she would fall for someone else and be with someone else..."
I had lost my mind by then, how could I have thought about so much?
Explain it clearly.
I then asked Qinghuan if she knew where Qingjiu was.
Qinghuan pursed her lips and said, "Master, Qingjiu didn't tell me where she was going. But before she left, she asked me where my hometown was, and we talked for a long time that day..."
in this way.
It's very likely that Qingjiu went to her hometown.
I asked Qinghuan.
I left her at home to recover from her injuries, and together with Black One, Black Two, Black Three, Black Four, and Black Five, we left the capital and headed to Huaide Town.
It takes about twenty days to travel from the capital to Huaide Town.
I figured that Qingjiu, being pregnant, wouldn't be able to walk fast, so I walked and searched along the way with Heiyi and the others.
However.
We searched all the way to Huaide Town but couldn't find Qingjiu.
Among my several bodyguards, Qingjiu's skills rank among the top three. She must have obtained a fake travel permit to come out.
If she hides, I think it won't be easy for me to find her.
but.
I still didn't give up. I sent Hei Yi and the others out to search, and I also started searching place by place myself.
The search lasted for several months.
She seemed to have vanished into thin air.
At that moment, I couldn't help but wonder if she hadn't come here at all.
then.
I left Black Four and Black Five to continue the search here, while I took Black One and the others to Qingjiu's hometown to look for her.
Qingjiu and the others are all orphans. They were adopted by my mother and the others when they were young. If they hadn't been given to me, they might be working for my mother and the others now.
Although they were all orphans, they still remembered their hometown.
Qingjiu's hometown is Minyang Town.
It's about a ten-day journey from here.
I'm not afraid of hardship, I'm just afraid of not being able to find her.
She is currently about eight months pregnant and will give birth soon.
