Su Jin narrowed her eyes slightly.
Nie Qingyi has nowhere else to turn, so she will definitely go to Zhou Ji to surrender!
Zhou Ji's past actions were always meticulous and flawless, so Su Jin had no way to make Shen Qianxue question him.
Since that's the case, Su Jin will give him a flaw and make him reveal his true colors!
If you don't throw bait, how will the big fish take the bait?
Su Jinxia's eyes lit up, and she instructed Su Hu: "You can go after Nie Qingyi, and it would be best to cut off her wings, but leave her an opening so that she can leave and drive her into a desperate situation."
Su Jin thought this method was very good. By keeping track of Nie Qingyi's movements, it would be easy to find evidence of collusion between Nie Qingyi and Zhou Ji.
However, she did not consider her own safety at all.
The revelation of the secret of the Glazed Blood will bring her death!
It wasn't that she didn't think of it; she was willing to do it. She had to make Shen Qianxue see Zhou Ji's true character as soon as possible.
Otherwise, things will become more complicated once war breaks out.
Su Hu didn't understand Su Jin's decision, but he vaguely guessed, "Does A-Jin have other plans?"
Seeing that she couldn't tell Su Hu about her grudge with Zhou Ji, Su Jin could only let him go first and explain the reason to him at a suitable time.
Su Hu stopped asking questions and unconditionally supported Su Jin's actions.
"The night wind is chilly, go downstairs, I'll take you home," Su Hu said with concern.
Su Jin thought of a solution and felt a little better. She nodded and flew down.
However, the alcohol took effect, and he collapsed to the ground in a daze.
Su Hu swiftly pulled her into his arms.
Su Hu's eyes were extremely bright, as if they were shining. With a hint of a smile, he said indulgently, "Be careful, this wine has a strong aftereffect."
Su Jinxia quickly stood up from his embrace and moved away, saying, "It's okay, I can manage."
A hint of embarrassment flashed across Su Hu's face, tinged with a touch of disappointment, but he still smiled gently and said, "Alright, then you go, I'll go with you."
Su Jin bit her lip, a faint smile that was always on her face, and walked steadily toward the village.
Su Hu breathed a sigh of relief and silently followed behind.
However, as they walked, things started to look a little off.
Su Jin bent over and wandered around aimlessly, as if searching for something.
"Did you lose something?" Su Hu stepped forward and asked curiously.
Su Jin shook her head.
"Then what are you looking for?" Su Hu asked, puzzled. Following Su Jin's gaze, he could see nothing but withered grass.
"Looking for someone," Su Jin said somewhat sullenly, her tone full of resentment. "That guy has disappeared again, and I always have to search for him so hard."
"Huh?" Su Hu was completely confused. He squatted down and tilted his head to see Su Jin's empty and bewildered eyes.
He suddenly realized that she was clearly drunk.
"I'll take you back." Su Hu reached out and pulled Su Jin down, wanting to take her away.
Su Jin struggled angrily, saying, "I want to find him. I have something to say to him."
Su Hu couldn't refuse Su Jin's request, so he had no choice but to accompany her.
But how could Su Jinxia possibly find her? She searched all night without success, and only returned home quietly in the early hours of the morning after sobering up…
On the same night, compared to the bustling Liuli Mountain, Phoenix Pavilion was extremely deserted.
The vast, dark courtyard complex was completely silent.
If it weren't for the faint light inside, one would have thought it was an isolated house.
Shen Qianxue sat on the bed in the new room.
This bed was just made and moved in today. It was made of jade that Shen Qianxue specially sent someone to bring back from Wulin Mountain.
Originally, there wasn't enough time, but Shen Qianxue used the government's influence and channels to transport it back and build it as quickly as possible.
But the bed is still there, but the person is gone.
The sharp pain in his heart made Shen Qianxue very uncomfortable. He got up and left the bridal chamber, returning to his own room, where the Tingyu Tower was visible through the window.
In the past, whenever he looked up, he could always see the room light, and occasionally, when Tingyulou opened the window, he could also see Su Jinxia's busy figure.
Now it's just pitch black.
He felt increasingly distressed by this change.
Shen Qianxue lowered her eyes, hesitated for a moment, and finally moved to Tingyu Tower.
He went into the room and turned on all the lights.
Suddenly, Shen Qianxue noticed two rabbit lanterns lying alone in the corner of the room.
"Shouldn't we hang lanterns during the Chinese New Year?"
"I made this myself, what's wrong with you?"
Su Jinxia's spoiled voice kept playing in Shen Qianxue's mind.
Shen Qianxue remained silent for a moment, then picked up the lantern, hung it upstairs, and lit a red candle.
The red lanterns looked somewhat eerie in the vast darkness and desolation, but Shen Qianxue tilted her head and thought: Indeed, it's much more festive, making the whole building feel more lively.
Shen Qianxue walked into the room with satisfaction and went up to the second floor.
Shen Qianxue rarely came to the second-floor boudoir, especially after sneaking in that night and seeing Su Jinxia's graceful sleeping posture, she dared not come up easily anymore.
Her warmth and scent still seemed to linger in the air. Shen Qianxue felt a pang of sadness and sat down forlornly at the table.
There were several books on the table, most of them brand new, except for one that was slightly curled, as if it had been frequently read.
Shen Qianxue pulled out the book, which was Master Lan's classic text.
There was a huge box next to the desk, which was locked, which was quite strange.
Shen Qianxue thought for a moment, then reached out and forcefully opened the lock.
The box was full of wooden blocks.
Each piece of wood was carved with a phoenix; some were quite well done, some were completely unrecognizable, and some were even stained with blood…
