Transmigrating into a Turbulent Era as a Soldier, Starting with Marrying a Wife

#157 - Chapter 157 Miss Wu, are you willing?

The reason why Lady Marquis arranged for Wu Ling to be Li Yuan's concubine was also because Wu Ling's appearance at this time was deliberately made very ugly by herself.

Her complexion was sallow, and there were some freckles on her face.

Anyone who only focuses on female beauty would definitely not like her.

Bai Jing deliberately arranged for an ugly woman to be Li Yuan's concubine, in fact, she also wanted to see Li Yuan's reaction.

Whether Li Lang was willing to accept her arrangement, even if it was an ugly woman.

This was also a little thought of Bai Jing to test Li Yuan's intentions.

In addition, in the eyes of Lady Marquis, although Wu Ling's appearance was a bit ugly, her martial arts skills as a Suspended Blade Guard were not bad.

With proper training and keeping her by her side, she would also become a good helper.

But for Wu Ling at this time.

She was very indignant in her heart now.

It was not because Longxiang Marquis arbitrarily arranged her marriage.

In this era, it was normal for superiors to assign marriages.

She was angry because of the status of a concubine.

The so-called concubine in Da Liang usually refers to the maids and servants in the family who were taken in by the male master.

A concubine was only slightly better than ordinary servants, but her status in the family was lower than that of other wives and concubines.

Moreover, Wu Ling often heard people say that some husbands with bad intentions would sell their old and unattractive concubines to make money.

Being a concubine for someone was worse than being a cow or a horse.

Wu Ling's heart was full of grievances.

She was also a Suspended Blade Guard official, and she had a bloodthirsty temper.

Wielding a long knife, she had braved wind and rain, and had fought with thieves and fierce men outside.

Although she had a handle in Longxiang Marquis's hands, Wu Ling felt insulted to be made a concubine.

But then, Wu Ling's mind calmed down, and she seemed to feel that something was wrong.

After all, she was a secret agent trained by the Wude Division, and she still had the ability to judge.

She quickly realized that this was Longxiang Marquis deliberately angering her, wanting to test her state of mind.

Thinking of this, Wu Ling secretly raised her head to observe.

Sure enough, Lady Marquis's eyes were carefully observing her reaction.

The corners of her mouth were even smiling.

Seeing Wu Ling looking at her, Longxiang Marquis asked.

"Wu Ling, are you willing to accept my arrangement?"

Wu Ling's mind was running fast, and she thought to herself.

Want me to be a concubine, no way!

She bit her lip, had a plan in her mind, and then said hesitantly.

"Reporting to Longxiang Marquis."

"This subordinate... I... am quite ugly, I'm afraid Qingyuan Count will not like me."

"I feel that I am not worthy of the Count."

Wu Ling was now very grateful that she had applied yellow wax to her face when she went out, and even made a few freckles on her cheeks.

With her current appearance, not to mention Qingyuan Count Li Yuan in front of her.

Even the poor scholars in the countryside would not look at her.

Hearing Wu Ling's answer, Lady Marquis was not angry, but said with a smile.

"Oh, Miss Wu, do you mean."

"As long as Qingyuan Count can like you, you will agree, right?"

Wu Ling did not respond, but thought in her heart.

That Lord Li is not blind, how could he like this ugly yellow-faced woman.

Lady Marquis turned her head to look at Li Yuan, who was still in a daze, and then asked softly.

"Qingyuan Count."

"Let Miss Wu be your concubine."

"Are you satisfied?"

Li Yuan was asked by Lady Marquis.

He gradually recovered from the shock and confusion just now.

Li Yuan's current intelligence level is [Divine Strategist], and the value exceeds 123.

He did not dislike Wu Ling's ugly appearance, on the contrary, Li Yuan had a good impression of this capable female guard.

Nor did he want to refuse Lady Marquis's arrangement.

After all, once he refused, Li Yuan's biggest helper, Longxiang Marquis Bai Jing, would inevitably become estranged from him.

What Li Yuan was worried about was actually the feelings of this Miss Wu.

He has a virtuous wife assistance system, and marrying more wives and concubines is naturally a good thing for Li Yuan, but that must be based on the situation where both parties are willing.

Looking at the expression and demeanor of this Miss Wu in front of him, she was obviously unwilling.

Li Yuan did not have any intention of forcing others.

Forcing others to become his woman, even if it was ordered by Longxiang Marquis, Li Yuan would not accept it.

Li Yuan thought for a while and said.

"Marquis, this matter... I don't think it's appropriate."

Hearing this.

Wu Ling was overjoyed, while Lady Marquis's heart sank.

Li Yuan continued.

"Marriage is a major event in life and should never be taken lightly or rashly."

"I see that Miss Wu still has unwillingness in her heart, so it cannot be forced."

Hearing this, Longxiang Marquis's face gradually turned cold, and her expression was displeased.

Obviously, she thought that Li Yuan was rejecting her arrangement.

At this time, Wu Ling had another idea in her heart.

Hmph, this Qingyuan Count said it nicely, isn't it just because he saw that my face was painted ugly and didn't want me.

In fact, Wu Ling thought about it carefully.

If she really married Li Yuan, even if it was only as a concubine and not a maid, she would not resist it.

Qingyuan Count is also a noble, at least much higher than that country scholar.

Although she knew that Li Yuan refused because she deliberately painted herself ugly.

But Wu Ling didn't know why, she was still a little disappointed.

She was thinking wildly in her mind, but when she raised her head, she found that Li Yuan had actually come to her.

Wu Ling looked at Li Yuan's extremely handsome face, a little at a loss.

What is this Qingyuan Count going to do?

Li Yuan squatted down and suddenly said softly to Wu Ling.

"Miss Wu."

"I ask you, if I take you as a concubine, not a maid, would you be willing?"

"Ah...?"

Li Yuan's question stunned both Lady Marquis and Wu Ling.

Lady Marquis raised her eyebrows, it turned out that she had misunderstood Li Yuan just now.

It seems that Li Lang is not going to reject her arrangement, but is just dissatisfied with Wu Ling being a maid?

At this time, Wu Ling's brain was blank.

Because until she met Li Yuan's eyes.

She suddenly realized that this Qingyuan Count was so handsome, and his eyes were so clear and gentle.

Looking at the man who was looking at her seriously, Wu Ling even had a sense of inferiority.

She regretted painting her face so ugly.

"This... This...... ."

"Qingyuan Count, marriage is a matter of parents' orders and matchmakers' words."

Under Li Yuan's gentle gaze, Wu Ling's heart had already been shaken.

Li Yuan nodded with a gentle expression.

"Miss Wu is right, parents have the grace of upbringing."

"Marriage is a major event, and you must listen to your parents."

Wu Ling thought that Li Yuan's words were another way of rejecting her.

She vaguely regretted her entanglement just now, and was quite disappointed for some reason.

Just then, she heard Li Yuan continue.

"Miss Wu."

"What I want to ask now is your own heart."

"Are you willing to marry me as a concubine?"

"If the girl is really willing."

"I will send a letter to Wu Du Jian tomorrow, prepare four gifts, and betroth her."

"If Miss Wu is unwilling..."

"Then let it be, I will never pester you."

"Then Miss Wu, what is your heart?"
