Chapter 880: Battle for the Saintess

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Su Xiaoxiao’s words were explicit and straightforward. If it were an ordinary person, they wouldn’t have said it even if it was because of their status and self-restraint.

However, Su Xiaoxiao was not an ordinary person.

It was easy to guess who was spreading the rumors about Cheng Sang raising an actor.

If she dared to slander Cheng Sang, she should not blame Su Xiaoxiao for turning her into a maidservant.

Actually, Cheng Lian had married into the Cheng family according to the wedding ceremony, but that was because everyone thought that Cheng Sang was crazy. Cheng Lian was the only heir of the Cheng family.

Now that Cheng Sang was “sane”, there was a future.

If Cheng Sang did not acknowledge her, her venture capital could only fail.

If Cheng Lian really recruited another man to be her live-in son-in-law at home, the risk would not be so great, but she insisted on touching her brother-in-law.

She was purely giving Su Xiaoxiao something to use against her.

Su Xiaoxiao brought Mei Ji into the carriage.

Only the mother and daughter, who were aggravated at the entrance, were left.

“Let’s go!” Su Xiaoxiao instructed.

The coachman was arranged by Uncle Quan. He was a trustworthy servant. He was agile and bold.

With a whip, the carriage left, raising dust on the mother and daughter’s faces.

Cheng Lian was speechless.

And so was Cheng Qingxue.

Cheng Qingxue wanted to go to the Holy Maiden Temple and could not delay. No matter how angry she was, she could only swallow it for the time being.

She looked at the departing carriage and gritted her teeth. “Just you wait. I’ll teach you a lesson in the selection later!”

In the carriage, Mei Ji was eating fried candy. “Do you want it?”

Su Xiaoxiao shook her head. “I’m not eating. You eat.”

Mei Ji stuffed two jelly beans into her mouth. “Will Cheng Qingxue trip you up later?”

Su Xiaoxiao said calmly, “I can’t wait for her to trip me up.”

Cheng Qingxue’s methods were not enough to deal with her, but Cheng Qingxue had the Joker card.

Su Xiaoxiao was looking forward to the official confrontation with the Saintess.

On the other hand, after Cheng Lian was humiliated by Su Xiaoxiao at the entrance, she got someone to prepare a carriage and was about to leave the residence.

Uncle Quan smiled and said, “Please hand over the key to the accounting room so that I can report to Missy.”

Cheng Lian asked, “Has my sister’s illness really recovered?”

Uncle Quan smiled and said, “Didn’t you see it with your own eyes?”

Uncle Quan was loyal. Since Young Miss had said that Cheng Lian was only a

maidservant, he would never greet her as Second Miss again.

Cheng Lian smiled faintly. “Uncle Quan, are you working with outsiders to deceive the Cheng family?”

Uncle Quan had another point. “I don’t have the guts or ambition.”

Cheng Lian’s smile disappeared and she said calmly, “The key to the accounting room isn’t with me. I’ll ask Old Master later and ask him to give you the key!” She was using Xie Yunhe as a s.h.i.+eld.

Xie Yunhe had worked hard in the Cheng family for 30 years and had long replaced the people he could use in the residence with his trusted aides.

It was not so easy to shake him.

Uncle Quan had long guessed that she would say this. “Master went to see Madam this morning. I just asked him. He said that the key to the accounting room is with you.”

Cheng Lian was speechless!

“I put it in the shop. I’ll go get it now, alright!”

“Then I’ll wait here.”

He had to be thick-skinned. If she didn’t give it to him once, he would ask for it a second time. If she didn’t give it to him the second time,he would ask a third time. If three times didn’t work, he would ask for it every day!

Missy’s enemies were not easy to deal with.

However, Uncle Quan had confidence in Little Miss.

Little Miss would definitely be able to s.n.a.t.c.h back the Cheng family business!

On the other hand, after Cheng Lian was angered Su Xiaoxiao, she went to Uncle Han’s dye shop with a dark expression.

However, as soon as she entered the courtyard, she sensed that something was wrong.

The dye shop was in a mess. Uncle Han and the coachman were tied to the ground with big rags stuffed in their mouths.

Cheng Lian quickly asked the maidservant to untie the two of them.

“What happened?” Cheng Lian asked.

Uncle Han took off the big rag in his mouth and quenched it a few times. He said angrily, “Yesterday evening, I went to deliver something to the Holy Maiden Temple. On the way, I was knocked unconscious and only just woke up.”

Cheng Lian hurriedly instructed the maidservant to report this matter to the Saintess.

The Saintess knew that the “Uncle Han” last night was fake.

The Saintess did not suspect Su Xiaoxiao and only thought that they were accomplices of the a.s.sa.s.sins in black. “The Ji family!”

The Saintess clenched her fists.

Five years of planning was ruined.

The man was gone.

The Cheng family’s family head’s token had also fallen into the hands of others.

To make matters worse, there was actually a rumor about the Saintess circulating in the capital.

It was said that the Saintess raised a pretty boy in her secret room and gave birth to three sons and a daughter with him.

The three sons were triplets, about three years old. The daughter was older.

The rumors spread like wildfire. Even the young ladies who came to partic.i.p.ate in the palace selection heard about this and discussed softly at the door.

“Have you heard about it too?”

“You mean…”

“Don’t play dumb. I don’t believe you didn’t hear it. You were there when I pa.s.sed by that teahouse this morning.”

“So it’s really… The Saintess really had a secret relations.h.i.+p with someone and gave birth to four children?” Not one or two, but four!

“What are you talking about?”

Cheng Qingxue got out of the carriage.

The young ladies’ eyes flashed and the discussion stopped.

Cheng Qingxue asked suspiciously, “Why didn’t you say anything the moment I arrived? Did you secretly badmouth me behind my back? Did that girl say it?” She pointed at Su Xiaoxiao, who had arrived before her.

Su Xiaoxiao had just humiliated her mother as a concubine maidservant this morning. In her opinion, Su Xiaoxiao must have made this matter known to everyone.

The young ladies looked at each other.

“She didn’t say anything bad about you!”

Yin Xiaodie placed her hands behind her back and walked over valiantly with the authority of a small family head.

“Why are you here?” Cheng Qingxue asked angrily.

Yin Xiaodie smiled and said, “I’m here to tell you what they were discussing.”

The few of them turned pale. ‘Miss Yin!”

Yin Xiaodie said, “They said that the Saintess was secretly pregnant with another man and gave birth to four children.”

Cheng Qingxue said sternly, “Nonsense!”

Yin Xiaodie snorted. “You were the one who asked them what they said just now. I’m just telling you the truth.”

Cheng Qingxue didn’t like Yin Xiaodie, but she understood that Yin Xiaodie never bothered to lie.

Her face turned cold as she looked at the few daughters who usually chased after her and tried their best to curry favor.

The few of them wiped the sweat off their foreheads awkwardly.

“We… heard it from others,” a young lady whispered.

Fortunately, the side door of the Holy Maiden Lady Temple opened and the selection began.

The palace selection was different from the first three rounds. Everyone had to draw the right cards and line up.

Su Xiaoxiao drew behind Yin Xiaodie.

Su Xiaoxiao said in amus.e.m.e.nt, “What a coincidence. Did you do something?”

Yin Xiaodie didn’t deny it. “Why? Are you unwilling to be with me? You’ll know the benefits of being close to me in a while!” Su Xiaoxiao wanted to pinch her face again.

But Yin Xiaodie had learned her lesson.

The moment Su Xiaoxiao raised her hand, she immediately dodged three feet away!

Su Xiaoxiao laughed uncontrollably. “Little guy, since you know so much about the Holy Maiden Temple, do you know what punishment the Saintess will receive if those rumors are true?”

Yin Xiaodie said, “The Saintess must be a virgin and not have an affair with a man. This is the commandment of the Holy Maiden Temple.. If you break the commandment, you will be stripped of your qualifications as a Saintess! In serious cases, you might even be burned to death!”
