MLC questions because my memory is failing me

A) Does anyone know if there was ever an in story reason given for why Di Feisheng doesn't kill women?

B) I vaguely recall seeing/hearing that Di Feisheng was also poisoned in the battle 10 years back but I can't recall where or when I did, can anyone point me in that direction?

C) I cannot for the life of me remember if we were given any information at all about the third of the Three Kings. Did I just completely blank on this or did they really give us nothing?

#mysterious lotus casebook #di feisheng #I'm like 90% sure the meta reason for A is roughly 'we need Jiao Liqiao to survive this action he would definitely have killed her for'#and honestly anything along the lines of 'he thinks women are weak' doesn't really square against the fact that he apparently had 12 women #of enough recognized and respected rank in Jinyuan that jlq decided she hated them personally for his apparent regard of them #we also see a lot of women fighters among Jinyuan ranks in the first flashback so any sort of misogyny angle doesn't really make sense?#and to be frank if dfs imposed any binary division on the population I'm pretty sure the categories would be 'fighter' and 'non fighter'#like. he's clearly aware of gender but I don't ever get the sense that it's much of a factor in how he evaluates people?#and B seems like truth because it's pretty clear that both dfs and lxy were supposed to die/vanish in that fight #sgd's entire takeover plan kinda hinged on both of them being removed from the picture and how else was he going to make sure it happened?#and given the way we see dfs heal in the show him being poisoned is also the only thing that explains why it took him 10 years to recover #he bounces back from injury absurdly fast he shoulda been out of that cave in like a month tops unless something was interfering
