The child was as delicate as a piece of jade, as if he had walked out of a painting, but his pretty face showed no emotion.

Seeing Xiao Xuetang looking at him, he quickly shrank behind Fo Shu, looking very shy.

At this moment, Xiao Xuetang's already unclear mind was even more confused...

Seeing Foshu was expected;

However, it was completely unexpected that this sinister and cunning high priest had a child with him!

This child...

"woke up."

Fu Shu's voice was unexpectedly gentle. His attitude did not seem like that of an enemy, but rather as if the two of them were good friends who had not seen each other for many years.

Xiao Xuetang's thoughts were interrupted. At this moment, Xiao Xuetang looked at Foshu, then at the child hiding behind him with only a pair of eyes showing, and subconsciously said: "Your child?!"

Foshu didn't expect that the first question Xiao Xuetang asked after waking up would be this. He was stunned for a moment, then silent for a while, and said, "I guess so."

After saying that, he looked at her deeply with a meaningful look.

Xiao Xuetang...

"You guys from the Tianxuan Sect are really hardworking. It must not be easy to lurk in Kyoto for all these years with such a young child."

Buddha forgiveness...

Even someone like Foshu, who was the best at mysterious things, was choked by Xiao Xuetang's words that were completely out of line with common sense.

Fu Shu just wanted Xiao Xuetang to see the child today. Time was precious and he didn't want Xiao Xuetang to waste too much time on the child, so he gave a few instructions to his subordinates.

The child did not struggle, and was taken away obediently by the people below like a puppet.

Xiao Xuetang didn't look at it any more, and retracted his gaze, only to hear Fu Shu say: "It seems that you remember everything."

Xiao Xuetang didn't know how to respond, so she remained unchanged and asked Foshu: "Oh, what should I remember? You are the chief priest of Tianxuan Sect..."

According to Xiao Xuetang's idea, Fu Shu, as the high priest of Tianxuan Sect, had been having an affair with Lin Shaoshu and others in his previous life and had been lurking in Kyoto for many years. But he suddenly approached her and appeared beside her, which was very suspicious!

What could there be about her that is worthy of the people of Southern Xinjiang to covet?

At first, Xiao Xuetang thought that he approached her because of Lin Shaoshu.

Because she hadn't broken up with Lin Shaoshu at that time, and besides, Ye Jin was in Southern Xinjiang, so why would they go so far away? Moreover, she was there at the Ksitigarbha Temple that day to meet Lin Shaoshu. Rather than saying that he wanted to get close to Lin Shaoshu through himself to fulfill his ambition, it's better to say that this person had known Lin Shaoshu beforehand and used Lin Shaoshu to meet her.

There are too many mysteries about southern Xinjiang surrounding him, and Xiao Xuetang does not want his currently stable life to face an uncertain existence.

So today she had discussed with Lin Xun. She knew that Ye Jin and the others had ill intentions, and when she found out that the Xingxuelou Opera Troupe from Southern Xinjiang was invited to the Marquis' Mansion by Ye Jin, she simply took advantage of the situation.

Use yourself as bait to lure the snake out of its hole and see if you can catch the big fish, Foshu.

Although it might be a little dangerous, Xiao Xuetang believed in Lin Xun's strength.

Facts proved that her luck in gambling was always good, and Foshu took the bait, but the development of things seemed a little beyond her expectations.

I have a bad feeling that I might have messed up...

Xiao Xuetang felt inexplicably uneasy. Even though he maintained a calm expression, his palms were sweating.

The originally calm Foshu suddenly became excited and said, "Sure enough, you really remembered everything, I knew it!"

"Yes, if it weren't for you, how could my identity be exposed? How could Lin Xun and his group of dogs keep biting me all these days?"

Xiao Xuetang saw a subtle smile on the corner of his mouth, his eyebrows twitched, and an incredible thought emerged.

Fu Shu deliberately told her her name in order to test whether she was... reborn?

After all, only Xiao Xuetang and Empress Xiao in the previous life had heard of the name of the Tianxuan High Priest. In this life, even someone as well-informed as Lin Xun only knew that there was a high priest in Southern Xinjiang, but did not know his real name...

When she confirmed Foshu's identity and told Lin Xun, Lin Xun began to lead people to encircle and wipe out the Tianxuan Sect's base and search the whole city for Foshu. The secret of her rebirth was exposed to Foshu.

The mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind it. She actually became the prey targeted by the oriole!

Do not……

It’s not a complete failure!

The stubborn and strong-willed Miss Xiao thought that she had not completely lost this round. After all, wasn't it indirectly proved that Foshu was also reborn by using his name to lure her? !

A reborn, ambitious high priest of Southern Xinjiang, this sounds like he's going to be very difficult to deal with.

Xiao Xuetang secretly took a deep breath...

In her previous life, she was trapped in the deep palace and had very few memories of Southern Xinjiang. She had only a vague impression of this brilliant high priest who was said to have taken charge of the Tianxuan Sect at a very young age and facilitated the "friendly" alliance between the Tianxuan Sect and Dayin.

But Xiao Yu seemed to know something hidden.

In this life, Xiao Yu didn't care about Ye Jin. He cared more about Lin Xun and Nanjiang...

Now, I hope Lin Xun can get some useful information from Xiao Yu.

……

In the Yong'an Marquis Mansion, no one was aware of Xiao Xuetang's disappearance.

After all, after the magic trick, everyone witnessed Xiao Xuetang disappear in the birdcage and then reappear in the crowd. He also said a few words to Xie before returning to his own yard to change clothes.

Everyone has seen the eldest daughter of the Xiao family.

As for her not appearing in the front yard, that was also understandable.

After all, no normal person would be able to watch their husband show his affection without batting an eyelid after his half-sister snatches away his fiancé.

Xiao Yu looked around the banquet but didn't find Xiao Xuetang, but he saw Lin Xun.

Xiao Yu didn't think that Ye Jin or the Yong'an Marquis' Mansion had the face to invite Lin Xun, this big Buddha. As for why Lin Xun was here today, it was obvious who was behind it.

Here, Xiao Yu took advantage of everyone's inattention and pulled Lin Xun to a remote corner, asking Lin Xun about Xiao Xuetang's so-called "plan".

"Your Majesty, let's not beat around the bush. The fact that you showed up at the Marquis' Mansion today means that you are undoubtedly her accomplice. Please tell me, Your Majesty, what exactly does Xiao Xuetang want to do!"

Xiao Yu was so anxious at this moment that he actually forgot the respectful title he used to address Lin Xun.

Lin Xun did not care about these trivial matters. Looking at the anxious Xiao Yu, he thought to himself: If it is just as Xiao Xuetang said, Xiao Yu will definitely lose his temper today.

Xiao Xuetang asked Lin Xun to take advantage of the situation to pry open the secret that Xiao Yu was hiding.

With Xiao Xuetang's ability as the Regent, she was able to extract more secrets from Xiao Yu than she did. In exchange, Lin Xun guaranteed Xiao Xuetang's safety and shared information with her.

At this time, Lin Xun did not realize the seriousness of the matter. He even sighed in his heart. Xiao Xuetang was so cunning that he could even trick his own brother...
