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

The Eighth Prince was startled by the question, then he said calmly: "My father doesn't trust you, so your value is not great, but you have good abilities, and I admire you very much."

I didn't expect the Eighth Prince to say that. A hint of surprise flashed across Chen Changli's eyes.

The Eighth Prince saw the surprise flashing in Chen Changli's eyes, and smiled lightly: "I am different from the Third and Fourth Princes. They are jealous of you, resent you, and want you to die, but I hope you can live."

"Why?" Chen Changli asked immediately.

The Eighth Prince said calmly, "Because you are alive, Quanrong and Hehe will be cautious, and Dajing will have a chance to breathe."

"You think too highly of me." Chen Changli listened to the eighth prince's words with a wry smile on his face.

The Eighth Prince sneered and said, "I thought you were very confident in yourself, but I didn't expect that you didn't think you could turn the tide."

Chen Changli is very self-aware and does not want others to think too highly of him: "I am just an ordinary person. I can reach my current height because of the right time, right place and right people. It is not my own achievement."

"I used to think so too, but now I am willing to put my hope on you." The Eighth Prince was silent for a long time before speaking his mind, "Chen Changli, if you are willing to be sincere to me, I am happy to give you true trust."

He said this very seriously, as if he was making a promise, and the previous hostility was no longer on his face.

Chen Changli knew the other meaning of his words, and after thinking for a long time, he said, "I always feel that I am a Dajing person, so I will not let anyone harm Dajing unless it is absolutely necessary."

When the Eighth Prince heard what Chen Changli said, he was very dissatisfied.

He asked solemnly, "Is the prince so good?"

Chen Changli corrected him: "It has nothing to do with the prince, it has to do with what I encountered."

"Eighth Prince, you must know that I am not from a noble family in the true sense. I am just an ordinary citizen. I was promoted by the crown prince and climbed to your presence step by step."

"I climbed so hard, but you thought it was easy for me. When I refused to accept your solicitation, you wanted to kill me and even my family members."

"In this situation, I don't ask for much, I just want to protect myself, so I won't do some of the things you worry about, and I don't want you to do them either."

Chen Changli said this, and then he was silent for a while and said, "If you insist on doing something that will harm the great scene, I will have no choice but to retire to the mountains with my family."

Wealth and honor are not so easy to come by. After experiencing many things, Chen Changli understood this more and more.

He just wants his family to be safe and doesn't ask for anything else.

The Eighth Prince did not think that Chen Changli really wanted to retire to the mountains. Wealth and glory were so difficult to obtain!

Chen Changli had to seize wealth and glory not only for himself, but also for his family.

"You are really stubborn." The Eighth Prince said with a cold face, and then softened his tone, "Okay, I promise you, from now on, I will no longer target your wife Wan Shufang."

"As for what the other officials will think, I am not the emperor's father, and I cannot issue orders for them not to wrongly accuse your wife."

"What will happen to Wan Shufang in the future depends on how you protect her."

Having said this in one breath, the Eighth Prince's voice was extremely sarcastic, as if he was mocking Chen Changli for not knowing what was good for him.

Chen Changli smiled lightly and said, "As long as you don't cause trouble for Shufang, she will be able to live well."

The Eighth Prince was stunned when he heard this, and then he deliberately asked in surprise: "Are you henpecked? Is Wan Shufang so jealous?"

Hearing the Eighth Prince's sarcastic words, Chen Changli said bluntly: "My wife is a living person, she is not my vassal, she has her own opinions and ideas, I am willing to respect her and give her the freedom to fly in the sky."

"You are a high and mighty prince, how can you understand the tacit understanding between us as husband and wife?"

"Eighth Prince, I advise you not to judge others by your own standards."

Chen Changli tried his best to protect Wan Shufang and prevent the Eighth Prince from looking down on her.

The Eighth Prince was stunned for a moment, and after a long while he smiled and said, "I really didn't expect you to be such a person. No wonder Wan Shufang is so bold. It seems that you indulged her."

After saying this, he suddenly felt that it was meaningless.

Wan Shufang and Chen Changli have a good relationship, which is why Chen Changli does this for her.

If he persists, what kind of person will he become? The Jade Emperor who forcibly breaks up a couple in love?

Thinking of this, the Eighth Prince shuddered, but said, "I will let Wan Shufang go for now. If anyone questions her, I will defend her, but you have to help me catch Tu Zhizhi as soon as possible and not let her do whatever she wants in Luoyang City."

Suppressing all the emotions in his heart, the Eighth Prince gradually regained his senses and then put forward his own request.

Chen Changli agreed, and then began to analyze with him the places where Tu Zhizhi might be hiding. After that, the two of them led people to search these places, but found nothing.

The Eighth Prince was very upset about this. Is Tu Zhizhi a rabbit? How can she hide so well?

"Your Highness, there is one place we haven't searched yet, and that is the cold palace." Seeing that the eighth prince's face was not looking good, Shen Bai, his aide and confidant, spoke quickly.

"Cold Palace?" Thinking of what Chen Changli said that the Queen might still be alive, the Eighth Prince's mind suddenly became active.

Shen Bai smiled and said, "There are quite a few people in the cold palace. If Tu Zhizhi continues to hide among them, we won't find her at all."

When he said this, he glanced at the Eighth Prince meaningfully and emphasized, "Princess An Qing still has many people hiding in the dark and have not been exposed yet."

"Tu Zhizhi has been with Princess An Qing for so many years. If she had wanted to, she would have sidelined Princess An Qing long ago."

The Eighth Prince suddenly realized: "I was wondering how Tu Zhizhi could escape from my pursuit. It turns out that she took advantage of these people."

Shen Bai hurriedly said: "Princess An Qing is a big trouble. Fortunately, Your Highness is wise and brave and dealt with her early. Otherwise, she would continue to do some things under the instigation of Tu Zhizhi. Your Highness would be afraid that she would..."

"She's already dead. All your calculations will be in vain. There's no need to dwell on her mistakes." The Eighth Prince was rarely kind.

Shen Bai noticed that he was in a bad mood and stopped talking about Princess An Qing, only mentioning Tu Zhizhi.

"If we catch Tu Zhizhi as soon as possible, the connections left by Princess An Qing will be completely destroyed. Then Your Highness can find a way to deal with these people. It may not be long before even Luoyang City is in our hands."

Shen Bai's words touched the heart of the Eighth Prince. The Eighth Prince stopped worrying about other things and immediately returned to the palace to search the cold palace.

Shen Bai stayed by his side and searched the entire cold palace carefully. He found that things were not as he thought and felt a little confused.

"Tu Zhizhi is not in Luoyang City, nor in the cold palace, so where is she? There is no place for her to hide in Luoyang City now."
