When the Eighth Prince said this, he deliberately glanced at Chen Changli. Seeing that he frowned slightly, as if he disagreed with what he said, he immediately sneered and said, "Chen Changli, don't forget what you promised me."

After saying this, he turned around and left without paying any attention to the Crown Princess.

Seeing him leave so decisively, the Crown Princess was stunned.

She quickly looked at Chen Changli and asked worriedly, "What are you and Lao Ba planning?"

She was very afraid that Chen Changli would be led astray by the Eighth Prince, so she wanted to find out the truth.

"We have no plans, we just want to resolve the current situation. Unfortunately, the Eighth Prince thought too much and misunderstood me."

Chen Changli did not reveal the Eighth Prince's plan, but only euphemistically mentioned the word misunderstanding.

When the Crown Princess heard this, she was silent for a while before she said, "It's good that you know what's going on. As for other things, you don't have to worry. I will find a way to solve them."

After she said this, she took Wan Shufang and left.

Wan Shufang immediately gave Chen Changli a look, asking him to pay attention to the Eighth Prince first and see what his next move would be, and then the couple would get together to discuss things.

Chen Changli received her eye signal, suppressed some of his emotions, and went to find the Eighth Prince.

Wan Shufang obediently followed the Crown Princess and soon they arrived at a remote courtyard.

Glancing around, Wan Shufang found that the small courtyard was a bit dilapidated, and an indescribable emotion surged in her heart.

After a while, she calmed down and looked at the Crown Princess with a worried look on her face.

Feeling Wan Shufang's worried look, the Crown Princess pursed her lips and sighed, "I was indeed a little impulsive earlier."

"I can understand you. After all, what the Eighth Prince said and did was really annoying." Wan Shufang said with a tolerant look.

The Crown Princess smiled faintly: "The degree to which the Eighth Old Man is annoying is beyond my imagination. If the Emperor had not been unconscious, I would have reported him long ago."

Speaking of the complaint, the Crown Princess's expression did not look very good.

Once the emperor knew about the Eighth Prince, even if he was very angry, he would not really beat or kill the Eighth Prince. Obviously, the Eighth Prince was very clear about this, so he was fearless.

What the Crown Princess couldn't stand was the Eighth Prince's arrogance, because he would only make the current situation worse.

"Wan Shufang, tell me the truth, how is our father? How many months can he last?" The Crown Princess stared at Wan Shufang with burning eyes and asked in a gentle tone.

The emperor had vomited blood and fainted before. The Crown Princess learned the news from Duke Cheng'en at that time, and secretly hoped that the emperor would die soon and be reborn.

Now seeing the eighth prince's arrogant attitude, she suddenly felt that it was better for everyone under the current circumstances that the emperor was still alive.

The Eighth Prince is a villain who gets carried away when he succeeds. Once he gains power, they will be fine in the short term, but in the long run, they will all be killed by the Eighth Prince.

"Your Majesty has eaten a lot of strange Phoenix Gu before, so his body has been damaged to a certain extent."

"Doctor Wei and I stayed by his side to help him take care of his body. However, the incident involving the strange man was extremely complicated and involved most of Luoyang City. His Majesty couldn't bear the pressure, and coupled with his poor health, he vomited blood and fainted."

"In other words, the two times your majesty vomited blood and fell unconscious were caused by different circumstances. This time it was more serious than the previous one. The Eighth Prince might have known about this incident, which is why he became so arrogant and domineering."

Wan Shufang learned about the emperor's plan from Chen Changli, and she was somewhat wary of the emperor. However, Chen Changli and the Eighth Prince had already made an agreement, and Chen Changli betrayed the Eighth Prince, allowing the emperor to hand the matter over to him.

Even though Wan Shufang disliked these two people, she had no choice but to cooperate with him, so she only told the Crown Princess about the Prince's affairs and did not mention the Emperor's plan.

Now that the Crown Princess was asking about it, Wan Shufang didn't intend to say anything, but only mentioned that the Emperor was in poor health.

"Is father's health so weak?" Upon hearing this, the Crown Princess had a very complicated expression.

She was very happy that the emperor was in poor health, but the emperor, who was in poor health, fell down at this time. How could the Crown Princess be in a good mood?

As her thoughts turned, the Crown Princess suddenly thought of the Phoenix Gu that Wan Shufang had mentioned.

She looked at Wan Shufang in shock and asked weakly, "Were you saying that Father ate a lot of Phoenix Gu?"

Wan Shufang was stunned when she heard this, then nodded solemnly: "Your Majesty secretly refined a lot of Phoenix Gu and ate them all. As a result, his health is very poor. A Gu master discovered his physical condition and specially fed him Gu worms that can suppress pain."

"Now that the poisonous insect has been taken out, your majesty's physical weakness is actually related to this matter."

When Wan Shufang said this, her expression became a little solemn.

The matter of Phoenix Gu was like a nightmare hanging over her head, but because there were too many things going on around her, she had no time to pay attention to Phoenix Gu.

Now that she mentioned Phoenix Gu to the Crown Princess, Wan Shufang's mood suddenly turned bad.

The Crown Princess noticed her mood change, and thinking of the strange man outside, she knew what she was worried about.

In fact, after the strange man appeared, the Crown Princess was also very worried, and even thought about following Duke Cheng'en to escape from Luoyang City.

If Chen Changli had not found a way to control those weirdos, the Crown Princess and the others would have left long ago.

"Phoenix Gu is an evil thing. Anyone who encounters it will become extremely crazy. I thought it would take a long time to produce Phoenix Gu, but I didn't expect that Phoenix Gu had been sent to Father long before this."

"When I think about how my father had already hired people to refine a lot of Phoenix Gu, and then asked people to capture a doctor, I feel that my father has become extremely stupid."

"Although what Old Eight is doing now is very detrimental to Father, I think he is doing a good job at this moment."

When the Crown Princess said this, she deliberately lowered her voice.

As she spoke, she deliberately glanced at Wan Shufang, fearing that she would have bad associations because of her words.

However, when she saw the approval on Wan Shufang's face, the Crown Princess knew that Wan Shufang had the same idea as she did.

She breathed a sigh of relief and a faint smile appeared on her face.

Wan Shufang looked at her, and both of them understood what the other meant, and their smiles couldn't help but grow bigger.

"To be honest, I really hope that my father can survive. Only in this way can we get rid of some calculations." The Crown Princess reached out and held Wan Shufang's hand, speaking earnestly.

Wan Shufang understood the Crown Princess's feelings and immediately spoke up: "The Eighth Prince is ruthless. He and Your Majesty have a fight. We just need to wait for the result. There is no need to get involved."

Hearing that she seemed to have something else in her words, the Crown Princess was quite surprised: "You... Chen Changli is hiding something from me?"
