Chapter 183 Storm in Beijing
Xu Qiuyue was stunned. She had not thought of this.

Matters concerning space are mysterious and unpredictable, and very few people can guess them.

Therefore, it is normal for everyone to suspect that there is something wrong with the Blood Witch's skills.

However, she had been practicing this nameless martial art for an unknown period of time in her previous life and this life, and Xu Qiuyue had not realized at all that this nameless martial art was an evil one.

It has never been mentioned here that cultivation requires blood or something like that.

The Fountain of Immortality is a martial art.

This is a novel idea. If she didn't possess the spiritual spring, she would definitely believe Bai Xiaosheng.

"Your guess is quite good, but if the Immortal Fountain is so precious, why is it known to everyone now? What do you think the person who spread the news was thinking? Doesn't he want the Immortal Fountain? Or does he already have it? I don't think you should charge for this question!"

Bai Xiaosheng smiled slightly. Seeing that Xu Qiuyue was very satisfied with his answer, he felt quite proud.

The last sentence was not news, but his guess. However, many people felt that his guess was correct and was very likely to be the truth.

Xu Qiuyue could easily find out the information he mentioned earlier from others, and the most valuable thing was the last sentence he said.

Bai Xiaosheng replied to Xu Qiuyue, "This news was spread by Lord Lu of the Dali Temple. This peasant girl is his wife. After he married her, he never had a concubine, and he never went to a brothel again. He is completely different from his previous dissolute appearance.

From this we can see that he had some feelings for his wife, and the two of them shared hardships and were demoted together.

As Xu Qiuyue's husband, if Xu Qiuyue also truly liked him, he would definitely know something. Judging from his reaction, he should know Xu Qiuyue's identity. After learning that Xu Qiuyue's identity was exposed, he immediately asked the Dali Temple to investigate the matter and mobilized a large number of people. As more people knew about it, the secret was no longer a secret.

Emperor Sheng did not revoke Xu Qiuyue's imperial edict, which shows that the court wanted to protect Xu Qiuyue.

What he should have thought was that the more people knew about it, the muddier the water would become.

At that time, only the imperial court can protect Xu Qiuyue, and Xu Qiuyue also has an imperial edict. Whether emotionally or from her own interests, she should take the initiative to hand over her skills.

After all, it is the Blood Witch who is mortal enemies with the imperial court.

Xu Qiuyue has no grudges against the imperial court."

Xu Qiuyue nodded thoughtfully.

What the court wants is the martial arts, not her life.

But only Xu Qiuyue knew that her martial arts technique did not have such magical powers.

Unless she hands over the spiritual spring water.

The Sikong family had few descendants, and precisely because of this, the art of astrology was not passed down only to men but to women. Men and women were the same, and women could also serve as officials in the court.

If there are only girls in the family, then they will invite a son-in-law to live with them.

However, the Sikong family has extremely high requirements for their son-in-law. He must have extraordinary talent and a handsome appearance. Otherwise, they are worried that he will taint the Sikong family's bloodline.

And how could such an outstanding man be willing to become a son-in-law?

So the Sikong clan came up with a solution. They just needed offspring to carry on their family line. As for men, it didn't matter whether they had them or not.

Therefore, the women of the Sikong clan would take the initiative to seduce outstanding men, then get pregnant and give birth to their own heirs.

In this world, the ideas of the Sikong family can be said to be extremely rebellious.

What a pity! The Sikong clan was eventually exterminated by Emperor Sheng's decree.

When Emperor Sheng sent the Blood Witch into the Red Tower, the Sikong clan used various means to try to rescue the Blood Witch.

Unfortunately, it did not succeed, so all the men were exterminated and all the women were reduced to slavery.

The Xuannv Sect today still has descendants of the Sikong clan.

It is precisely because of this that the Xuannv Sect has always regarded the destruction of the Dasheng Dynasty as its first goal.

Having lived two lives, Xu Qiuyue still knows a lot of information. "Sir, take care. If you want to know anything in the future, you can come to this address to find me. I opened a small shop in Beijing. If you have anything to do, come and sit down, and buy some tea. It would be great."

Bai Xiaosheng handed Xu Qiuyue a piece of paper with an address written on it.

It was rare for him to meet such a wealthy customer, so naturally he hoped for a long-term cooperation in the future.

After all, he and a few other know-it-alls took turns to work in the black market, and they had to pay a considerable fee every time.

He can make some money from selling tea in his own shop.

The key point is that it is very remote and the price is very low, so he bought the store.

As long as he develops more customers in the future, he won't have to guard the black market anymore.

Who doesn’t want to make a lot of money just by lying at home and drinking tea?

Xu Qiuyue now roughly understands the problems she will face.

The imperial court did not issue a wanted order, and her imperial edict was still in place.

But even if we go back, it will be a bloody storm.

This is the capital city. Although Xu Qiuyue thinks that she is quite powerful, she also knows that she is still no match for the imperial court. Not to mention the imperial court, even if Prince Ning'an takes action personally.

Xu Qiuyue even felt that she could not defeat King Ning'an.

The only person she could beat was Lu Yuan.

Even if it was Aunt Mei, she would not be able to stop him as long as he was determined to escape.

Xu Qiuyue did not plan to show up.

She wanted to observe the situation in the capital again.

Those big shots have a lot of courtyards, so she can just find a place to live in and doesn't even have to pay rent.

As for supplies, there are enough in Xu Qiuyue's space.

Xu Qiuyue is not afraid of this.

··········
In the imperial palace, inside the room of the Crown Princess of the Eastern Palace.

Xu's mother hid under the bed and waited for a long time.

Only then did Xu Chunhua come back.

She waited until Xu Chunhua's maid left before she dared to crawl out from under the bed.

The maid cleaned the place very well, even under the bed was very clean and tidy.

"Spring flowers."

Xu Chunhua was so frightened that she almost screamed.

Mother Xu put her finger on her lips and made a sound to signal her not to speak.

"Chunhua, I really don't want to come to you again, but I really can't live any longer. Your father married a whore and gave birth to a son. He locked me up in a dark room all day long. I eat, drink, defecate, urinate and sleep in the room. Look at my hands and feet, they are all tied up with chains."

Mother Xu cried to Xu Chunhua.

As he spoke, he stretched out his hand.

There was a circle of dark blue marks on Xu's mother's wrist.

Xu's mother was much thinner than before. She was skinny and looked very pitiful.

"Chunhua, I know you have your difficulties now. I just want to be your old maid by your side to serve you."
