Lu Xiaofeng said, "Is there really no way?"
Sikong Zhaixing's eyes darted around, and she said, "I've been wanting to visit Qixia Nunnery lately."
Lu Xiaofeng asked, "Where is Qixia Nunnery?"
Sikong Zhaixing said, "Qixia Nunnery is naturally located on Qixia Mountain."
As he spoke, Sikong Zhaixing stood up and looked at Su Yuchen, saying, "What you said has come true."
As soon as he finished speaking, he floated away lightly, like a night owl disappearing into the forest.
Lu Xiaofeng couldn't help but ask, "You know Sikong Zhaixing? What did he say? And what did it come true?"
Su Yuchen smiled and said, "I've met him before. I hope that one day, if Jin Jiuling goes to him, he will tell me."
Lu Xiaofeng couldn't help but shout, "Then how did you know that Jin Jiuling would go to see Sikong Zhaixing?"
Su Yuchen said calmly, "Just a guess!"

Chapter 435 Qixia Temple
"What else did you guess?" Lu Xiaofeng asked.
Su Yuchen said calmly, "I guess you're very angry right now."
Lu Xiaofeng slammed down his wine glass and said, "That's right, I'm very angry now." With that, he pulled Xue Bing up and left.
Watching the carriage disappear into the distance, Hua Manlou sighed, "He always likes to make friends and is unwilling to doubt them."
Su Yuchen shook his head and said, "But sometimes he has a bad eye for making friends."
Hua Manlou gave a wry smile, unsure how to respond.
………………
As Su Yuchen and Hua Manlou walked along the road, the carriage caught up from behind. Lu Xiaofeng lifted the carriage curtain and said, "Get in the carriage, let's go to Qixia Nunnery."
On the carriage.
The tigress who was once fierce has become gentle and kind, and Lu Xiaofeng has become a lively and energetic Lu Xiaofeng again.
"What do you think is in Qixia Nunnery?" Lu Xiaofeng asked confidently.
Su Yuchen smiled and said, "You should ask Sikong Zhaixing about that. After all, he was the one who recommended this place, not us."
"You don't know?" Lu Xiaofeng raised an eyebrow.
Su Yuchen nodded and said, "I know. But I don't plan to tell you."
Before Lu Xiaofeng could ask any further questions, Su Yuchen turned to Xue Bing and asked curiously, "Aren't you going to tell him?"
Xue Bing smiled and said, "I believe in Lu Xiaofeng."
Su Yuchen sighed and said, "He's stupid, and you're an idiot!"
Lu Xiaofeng: ...
"So, what secrets are you hiding from me?"
Hua Manlou shook his head and said, "I don't know."
Su Yuchen smiled and said, "I'm not interested in your tigress. I just happen to know a little more about her. If you still haven't guessed it after we get to Qixia Nunnery, I'll tell you."
"Tell me what?" Lu Xiaofeng couldn't help but ask.
Su Yuchen pointed to his chest and said, "The secret about the embroidered handkerchief."
………………
The carriage traveled under the setting sun to Qixia Mountain, where Lu Xiaofeng met an unexpected person: Jiang Chongwei, the chief steward of the Southeast Prince's Mansion.
"What are you doing here?" Lu Xiaofeng couldn't help but sigh.
Jiang Chongwei, who had already gone blind, laughed loudly, his voice filled with pride but tinged with resentment, and retorted, "If Lu Xiaofeng can be here, why can't I be here? I thought you came to find me?"
Lu Xiaofeng said, "I don't actually know who I'm looking for."
Jiang Chongwei asked in surprise, "Then why did you come?"
Lu Xiaofeng explained, "It was Sikong Zhaixing who told me."
Jiang Chongwei suddenly realized, "No wonder, thieves always have the best information. Unfortunately, there's nothing I can do to help you. I've already told Jin Jiuling everything that happened in the treasure vault that day."
Lu Xiaofeng frowned and asked, "Nothing was missed?"
Jiang Chongwei smiled and said, "I'm just blind, not mentally impaired."
"Big brother!"
This soft exclamation broke the silence at the doorway, and Lu Xiaofeng immediately saw a bright and beautiful woman.
Jiang Chongwei was momentarily dazed before realizing they were still at the door, and quickly beckoned everyone inside.
“This is my younger sister, Qingxia. I’ve been staying here ever since I went blind,” Jiang Chongwei said.
Seemingly knowing what Lu Xiaofeng wanted to ask, he explained, "It's not that Your Highness wants to kick me out of the manor, it's just that I'm blind, and there's no use for me staying here. Rather than causing trouble for others, it's more comfortable to live outside."
At this moment, the bright-eyed woman in the Taoist robe came over and served tea. Lu Xiaofeng looked at the ground, his eyes flashing, and didn't say anything until she walked away.
………………
In the guest rooms of the Taoist temple.
Xue Bing was a female guest, so she had to spend the night with Jiang Qingxia, leaving only three men in the room. However, Lu Xiaofeng's expression was not good, Su Yuchen was still leisurely drinking tea, and Hua Manlou didn't ask any questions.
"Don't you want to say something?" Lu Xiaofeng finally couldn't help but ask.
Hua Manlou said softly, "We can tell you're not in a good mood. If you don't want to talk about it, you don't have to."
There are four eyebrows in this world, and four tigresses, and tonight two tigresses just happened to collide.
Jiang Qingxia was Jiang Chongwei's childhood sweetheart and fiancée. However, Jiang Chongwei could not lose his virginity in order to cultivate the "Vajra Boy Kung Fu," so Jiang Qingxia had no choice but to become a nun.
[When Lu Xiaofeng saw the red shoes on Jiang Qingxia's feet, he thought of many things. You successfully led Lu Xiaofeng astray.]
Su Yuchen blew on the tea leaves and said calmly, "If you're worried that Xue Bing and Jiang Qingxia will fight, why don't you go and mediate now? I believe that if you put in a little effort, you can persuade those two tigresses."
"Uh……"
Lu Xiaofeng's breath hitched, as if he had been struck in an acupoint. Even Hua Manlou looked up at him, as if he were seeing this guy with four eyebrows for the first time.
"How did you figure that out?" Lu Xiaofeng asked, his voice lacking confidence.
Su Yuchen glanced at him and said with a half-smile, "Anyone with eyes can see that you're hiding something. Can you be any more guilty? Not only did I see it, but Xue Bing saw it too. Guess if they're fighting right now?"
"I..." Lu Xiaofeng just opened his mouth.
Su Yuchen waved his hand to interrupt, saying, "You don't need to explain. Explaining is just covering up, and covering up is the truth. I'd love to see your life in chaos from now on. Or are you saying you don't want to take responsibility?"
Lu Xiaofeng glared at him, pointed his finger at his nose, and said, "Do I look like an irresponsible person?"
Su Yuchen nodded and said, "You don't seem like it, but you are. Otherwise, Xue Family Village is right there, so why don't you dare to go see Xue Bing? Qixia Nunnery is right here, so why are you pretending not to know who the people here are?"
Lu Xiaofeng sat dejectedly to the side, unsure how to respond.
Su Yuchen glanced at him and said to Hua Manlou, "Look at this guy, he's a bastard. He wouldn't even take advantage of a woman."
Hua Manlou laughed and said, "Lu Xiaofeng is indeed a scoundrel, but it's probably because he doesn't want to be a kept man."
Su Yuchen clicked his tongue twice, making Lu Xiaofeng want to shut him up: "I said, can we talk about something serious?"
Hua Manlou said with a smile, "You speak, and we'll listen."
Lu Xiaofeng couldn't help but ask, "Do you think Jiang Qingxia might be the second wife, Jin Jiuling's lover?"
Hua Manlou asked in surprise, "You suspect her?"
Lu Xiaofeng sighed, "Although I don't want to either, the possibility is very high now."
Su Yuchen raised an eyebrow and asked, "The reason?"
Lu Xiaofeng took out the embroidered handkerchief from his bosom and placed it on the table, saying, "I don't know if you've noticed, but there's a layer in Jiang Qingxia's shoes that's very similar in material and workmanship to this handkerchief. And Old Madam Xue said that this is exactly the design of a shoe."
"Just this?" Su Yuchen asked in surprise. "You know, many women wear shoes made of the same material. Not everything is unique."
Lu Xiaofeng sighed, "She is Jiang Chongwei's sister, and Jiang Chongwei happens to be the head steward of the outer courtyard of the Prince of Nan's mansion. And coincidentally, I also know another secret."
Chapter 436 Exchanging Testimony
Su Yuchen and Hua Manlou both watched him quietly.
After holding his breath for a long time, Lu Xiaofeng said, "Jiang Chongwei doesn't have a younger sister or a cousin. They are not siblings. Jiang Qingxia is Jiang Chongwei's fiancée."
"What does that have to do with anything?" Su Yuchen asked.
Lu Xiaofeng couldn't help but say:
"Don't you think she held a grudge and that's why she had Jin Jiuling blind Jiang Chongwei as revenge?"
"Moreover, if Jiang Qingxia wanted to, she could easily obtain information about the Prince's Treasury from Jiang Chongwei."
Su Yuchen shook his head and said, "If Jiang Chongwei were a big mouth, he wouldn't be able to become the head steward of the outer courtyard of the Prince of Nan's Mansion. No one would want to employ a steward who could reveal their secrets at any time. If Jiang Chongwei didn't trust Jiang Qingxia, he wouldn't have come here specifically after he went blind. It can only be said that there were other hidden reasons behind what happened back then."
Lu Xiaofeng couldn't help but say, "So you knew all along."
Su Yuchen shrugged helplessly: "I know a lot of things, and I'm not just guessing like you. You give evidence to Jin Jiuling, but don't you need evidence to suspect Jiang Qingxia?"
Lu Xiaofeng retorted, "This is just a reasonable guess."
Su Yuchen glanced at him, making Lu Xiaofeng extremely uncomfortable. His gaze seemed to be looking at an idiot: "Aren't you two coming in?"
The next second, the door was pushed open violently, and Xue Bing and Jiang Qingxia stood prettily in the doorway, glaring angrily at Lu Xiaofeng, looking like two murderous tigresses.
………………
"You...know each other?" Lu Xiaofeng finally realized.
Xue Bing chuckled coldly and said, "We not only know each other, but we're also sisters in some way."
Jiang Qingxia said, "We've known each other for a longer time than you've known us."
Lu Xiaofeng gave a wry smile and looked at Su Yuchen, saying, "So, what kind of secret is this that I don't know about?"
Su Yuchen nodded and said, "Do you know about red shoes?"
"What is that? It sounds like an organization," Hua Manlou asked, changing the subject.
Su Yuchen said, "The Red Shoes is a group of women, or rather, eight women. The leader is Granny Gongsun, Xue Bing is the eighth, and Jiang Qingxia is the fifth. They are all members of the group. And the Second Granny I mentioned is the second member of the Red Shoes."
With each word Su Yuchen spoke, Xue Bing and Jiang Qingxia's faces paled a little more. When Su Yuchen finished speaking, Jiang Qingxia smiled broadly, and the next second she had already lunged forward, stabbing Su Yuchen's throat with an embroidery needle in her hand. Her movements were so fast and her lightness skill so high that she was clearly a first-class master.
Then, in the next moment, two fingers appeared at Su Yuchen's throat. With just a gentle pinch, the bright silver embroidery needle stopped advancing.
Hua Manlou revealed a smile, and with a gentle exertion of his fingers, a powerful force shook Jiang Qingxia's fingers that were holding the needle away. Jiang Qingxia gritted her teeth and leaped backward.
Before she even reached the door, Hua Manlou chuckled softly, his figure disappearing from the table and reappearing behind Jiang Qingxia, blocking her path.
Meanwhile, Lu Xiaofeng had also subdued Xue Bing, who had suddenly attacked. Seeing that Jiang Qingxia was unharmed, he breathed a sigh of relief, but did not notice Xue Bing's icy expression.
It wasn't until he saw Su Yuchen's still indifferent expression that Lu Xiaofeng couldn't help but sigh.
“If someone’s secret is exposed, they will inevitably have a stress response, so you don’t need to worry. I’m not a serial killer, and I’m always more forgiving towards people who are insignificant,” Su Yuchen said.
Lu Xiaofeng gave a wry smile and said thank you.
Just then, the blind Jiang Chongwei appeared at the door. His face was very ugly as he looked in Lu Xiaofeng's direction: "I also heard what you were saying just now."
Lu Xiaofeng sighed, "But we have no evidence." With that, he released Xue Bing.
Xue Bing's eyes darted around, and instead of leaving, she moved even closer. Unfortunately, Jiang Qingxia had already gone to support Jiang Chongwei and didn't look at her and Lu Xiaofeng, making Xue Bing feel as if she had punched thin air.
"Is it really Jin Jiuling? Why would he do this?" Jiang Chongwei asked persistently.
Lu Xiaofeng already had a guess, and said with a wry smile, "He may be short of money, but as I said, there's no evidence. No one will believe us."
Jiang Chongwei fell silent!
After a moment, watching his figure disappear into the darkness, Su Yuchen stood up and said, "Next is the grudge between the three of you. We'll leave Lu Xiaofeng to you."
Hua Manlou smiled, shook his head, and got up to follow.
