Abandoned by the best children? I just take out the space

Chapter 1161: Dare not bet on human nature

Wan Shufang didn't want Chen Changli to know about this, nor did she want him to be a test subject, just so they could research the antidote.

You have to know that human hearts are unpredictable and human desires are endless. Wan Shufang doesn't dare to gamble on human nature and can only eliminate everything at the very beginning.

Wei Mingzhou understood her thoughts and felt annoyed at himself for bringing up something irrelevant.

He said apologetically, "I took things for granted and thought the best of it. I will pay attention to this matter in the future and not let Chen Changli find out about it."

He spoke sincerely, and the guilt instantly enveloped him like a thick fog, making him look a little fragile.

Seeing this, Wan Shufang quickly spoke to comfort him: "You are also worried about Chen Changli, so you brought this up in front of me."

Wei Mingzhou immediately shook his head: "I am worried about him, but I am more worried about my own safety, so I forget some important things when I talk."

He said this in a tactful way, but Wan Shufang understood what he meant immediately.

Her lips moved slightly, as if she wanted to continue to comfort Wei Mingzhou, telling him not to let his mind wander and to focus on what was happening at hand.

However, the words were stuck in her throat for a long time and she didn't utter a word. It was only because Wei Mingzhou was very anxious at the moment that he suddenly thought of Chen Changli's breeding of the Phoenix Gu.

The most important thing is that the Phoenix Gu broke out of Chen Changli's body. Not only did they two know about it, but Chang Xuewei and the emperor were also very clear about it.

These two people are the biggest enemies. Wan Shufang believes that Wei Mingzhou suddenly thought of this and proposed to research the antidote. Isn't it because he is worried that these two people will do anything to achieve their goals?

"Doctor Wei, your words actually reminded me. Otherwise, when the matter in Luoyang City is over, Chang Xuewei and His Majesty will come up with bad ideas again, and my husband and I will be caught off guard."

Wan Shufang kept some words in her heart and spoke to Wei Mingzhou earnestly.

"But the Eighth Prince is both an accident and our hope for survival. I want to wait and see how things develop, and then seize the opportunity to grab this glimmer of hope."

"As for His Majesty's side, I think based on His Majesty's personality, he certainly doesn't want Prince Rong or the Eighth Prince to really gain the upper hand. So if we just find a way to make him take action, the current situation may be reversed."

After hearing what Wan Shufang said, Wei Mingzhou frowned, as if he disagreed with her. But then he thought that apart from this, they had no better way but to let these powerful and greedy people fight among themselves.

"There is no need to test His Majesty's plans. We can figure it out by looking at the Eighth Prince's case."

"So in the next period of time, you don't have to worry too much about Chen Changli's safety. Just wait patiently. I believe the results will be presented to us soon."

Wei Mingzhou suppressed the complicated thoughts in his mind, comforted Wan Shufang gently, then took her to sit down next to him and continued to listen to the movements outside.

Wan Shufang was uneasy, but seeing how calm and composed he was, she repeatedly warned herself in her heart, and she suppressed the uneasy thoughts and gradually regained her usual calmness.

The two of them spent time together calmly in the ear room, avoiding the patrolling guards. Yanran came in front of Lin Jing. She had just told him what happened and urged Lin Jing to arrange someone to replace the emperor, when she saw Chen Changli coming over with a few ragged strong men.

Seeing these familiar-looking burly men, Yanran's heart began to beat like a deer, as if it was about to jump out of her chest, and she completely exposed her panic in front of Chen Changli.

"Ms. Yanran, do you have anything to say when you see these people?" Chen Changli threw the people aside, staring at Yanran inexplicably, but his tone was as gentle as water.

When Yanran listened, she felt a chill running from the soles of her feet to the top of her head, and she shivered uncontrollably.

"I don't know them." Trying hard to control her emotions, Yanran blinked and said innocently.

As soon as she finished speaking, the strong men who were pinned to the ground seemed to have grabbed a life-saving straw and spoke anxiously: "Yes, we don't know Miss Yanran at all. We are really ordinary civilians, not spies. Please let us go quickly."

"You call her Miss Yanran?" Chen Changli raised his eyebrows, revealing a sense of hostility for no reason.

The strong men who were crying out for justice suddenly became stiff in their expressions when they heard the wrong tone in his voice, and they subconsciously looked towards Yanran.

Upon seeing this, their faces turned pale, their minds became dazed, and they almost lost their balance and collapsed to the ground like pancakes.

Yanran noticed their strangeness and knew that they were worried that she would not be able to protect them.

Her face turned pale in an instant, and the red on her lips became somewhat darker, as if the blood had faded.

Chen Changli, who was standing by, noticed the changes in their expressions and suddenly felt that he didn't need to interrogate them; he could get them to blurt out everything.

Chen Changli sighed inwardly, but didn't show it on his face. He just asked, "Yanran, do you have anything to say to me?"

"I really don't know them." Yanran said this with a slight movement of her lips.

After hearing this, Chen Changli just smiled and said nothing.

When Yanran saw him smile, she felt that all her secrets had been seen through by him and there was no point in pretending anymore.

She bit her lip slightly, forcibly suppressed her tangled thoughts, and said in a desperate tone: "Okay, I know them, but I assure you that I have nothing to do with them. They contacted me on their own initiative."

With just one sentence, she wanted to make all the relationships clear, but the strong men who were spies were unwilling to do that.

Besides, they came to Luoyang City to get some information, that is, Yanran had a good relationship with Chen Changli and his wife. Just as Liu Yaoyao worried, Yanran might have been turned against by Chen Changli and his wife.

"What do you mean we have no relationship? Miss Yanran, you are Miss Liu's most trusted Gu Master. The Phoenix Gu was able to be researched because of you!"

"Because something happened in the underground palace, you did not follow Miss Liu to escape from Luoyang City. Miss Liu was very worried about you, so she sent us to rescue you."

"I didn't expect that this man named Chen Changli was so cunning. He actually used you to lure us into a trap. Miss Yanran, we were arrested because of you."

As soon as the sturdy men opened their mouths, it was clear that they wanted to drag Yanran into the water without considering her safety at all.

Yanran is no longer the silly girl she used to be. She now suspects Liu Yaoyao and is naturally very wary of the people sent by Liu Yaoyao.

Now hearing what these people said, she knew very well that these people were deliberately dragging her into this according to Liu Yaoyao's wishes.

She was both angry and secretly relieved. It turned out that Liu Yaoyao really didn't treat her as a sister and had been using her from the beginning to the end.

The shackles on her body completely shattered, and Yanran's face became extremely cold, as if frost had condensed on her face in the cold winter.

"Who am I and who are you? Do you think I would use you to achieve my goals? That's ridiculous."
