When Liu Yaoyao heard the words "Liu Qingshan", she felt like a sharp knife digging into her flesh.

She was in so much pain that she wanted to pounce on him and tear off the mask on Tu Zhizhi's face.

"As expected of Tu Yuanzhou's sister, you gather information so quickly." Liu Yaoyao spoke word by word, gritting her teeth, or as if she was squeezing out a curse from between her teeth.

Tu Zhizhi thought she was just praising her and accepted it happily, saying, "This is all thanks to you and Liu Qingshan. If you and your brother hadn't caused such a scene, I wouldn't have brought Jiang Wanli into the cold palace."

"The reason why we two can meet you here now is because of you, Liu Yaoyao. We are really destined to meet each other."

Tu Zhizhi's words were still as sharp as knives, and she was not willing to miss any opportunity to poke Liu Yaoyao in the heart.

Liu Yaoyao almost had the illusion of vomiting blood. Why did Tu Zhizhi like to step on people's pain points so much?

"You and I have no destiny." Liu Yaoyao said angrily, "Don't mention Liu Qingshan anymore. He's dead. Mentioning a dead person in front of me will only make me feel unlucky."

Tu Zhizhi kept smiling: "No matter how unlucky he is, he is still your brother."

Tu Zhizhi turned her eyes and looked at Chen Changli, deliberately asking: "Where is Liu Qingshan's body? How did you deal with it? Liu Yaoyao is Liu Qingshan's sister after all. She must go to the grave during the Tomb-Sweeping Day."

"Tu Zhizhi, do you want to die?" Liu Yaoyao's voice turned cold.

"I'm not looking for death. I just want to remind you not to provoke me." Tu Zhizhi looked at Liu Yaoyao's gloomy face and her voice became gentle. "Now I am no longer a maid serving Princess An Qing, but Tu Zhizhi who has regained my identity. If you disrespect me, I will pay you back a hundredfold."

Liu Yaoyao was quite surprised when she heard her emphasize this matter: "So you care so much about your status."

"Aren't you the same?" Tu Zhizhi said meaningfully.

Liu Yaoyao was stunned when she heard this.

Tu Zhizhi didn't wait for her to refute and changed the subject: "What's going on with Chen Changli, Liu Yaoyao, since you have some guesses, why don't you convince him?"

"Are you two done yet?" Listening to the two women arguing, Ye Xuan temporarily forgot about Chen Changli and stood aside watching them happily. Now when he heard Tu Zhizhi mention Chen Changli again, his face immediately darkened.

Although Wan Shufang and Wei Mingzhou did not say anything about the abnormality of Chen Changli, Ye Xuan had his guess.

After all, Phoenix Gu is an evil creature, and Chen Changli is regarded as the mother of Phoenix Gu. How could he have an easy life?

The fact that he is alive and well now can only be because he is lucky, not because there is no problem with the Phoenix Gu.

"The threat of the weirdo is right outside the door. If you want to survive, just push Chen Changli out." Jiang Wanli said bewitchingly, "Hurting him and saving millions of people will be a good deal. Are you really not considering it?"

"What good deal? I think you think it's a good deal. You are a traitor, and Chen Changli is the general of Dajing. If anything happens to him, of course you, as a traitor, will think it's good." Ye Xuan sarcastically said bluntly.

Jiang Wanli suppressed his anger and said sternly: "I just want to survive, is that wrong?"

His words were clearly a moral blackmail. Wan Shufang's face darkened, she stared at him coldly, and sneered, "It's not wrong to want to live, but you shouldn't hurt others in order to live."

"Jiang Wanli, when you were in the White Lotus Sect, didn't you hate those people who forced you? Especially the Saint who liked you and wanted to use her status to force you to bow down at all times."

"You hate her so much that you don't want to appear in front of her. If you put yourself in her shoes, you should be able to understand what those people you force are thinking."

Wan Shufang deliberately mentioned the Holy Maiden of the White Lotus Sect in order to make Jiang Wanli empathize with her.

However, thinking that Jiang Wanli had morally blackmailed Chen Changli twice, Wan Shufang knew that he would not feel the same way.

Because he himself was a persecutor who was high and mighty, he joined the White Lotus Sect as a friend of the Holy Son just to conceal his identity.

"I've met you a few times, and I think that people like you, even if you can empathize with them, would not agree with their resistance."

"Because your status is higher than that of the Saint of the White Lotus Sect, you looked down on her at first, and that's why you were unwilling to accept her love."

After saying this in one breath, Wan Shufang's mood eased a little, and then she locked her eyes with Jiang Wanli and said bluntly.

"But Chen Changli is different from those people, and even more different from that saint. He is your enemy. You want to make him pay with just a few words. You take yourself too seriously."

"Even if Chen Changli is willing to sacrifice himself to save you, as his wife, I will not let him do that."

"If you want to force him, then I can only find a way to let you go head-to-head with those weirdos."

Jiang Wanli was squeezed by Wan Shufang and felt that his face and dignity had been pulled down by Wan Shufang.

He wanted to be angry and wanted to warn Wan Shufang, but when it came to Chen Changli, he wanted Chen Changli to deal with those weirdos, so he naturally couldn't directly say out loud the warning in his mind.

He tried to calm himself down and said calmly, "I don't want Chen Changli to die. I just think that Liu Yaoyao's words are not groundless. If Chen Changli is willing, we won't be trapped here waiting to die."

Intentionally emphasizing the last two words, Jiang Wanli immediately observed the expressions of others.

If they were so inclined, he could say a few more words to get them to target Chen Changli, but he didn't expect these people to glare at him.

"It seems that except for Liu Yaoyao, you all want to stay here and wait to die." Tu Zhizhi's eyes were unusually gentle, but her tone was frightening.

Liu Yaoyao said sarcastically: "They want to live more than anyone else, so they developed a kind of powder that can emit a foul smell. This powder can delay the monsters for a while until the rain stops..."

Seeing that Liu Yaoyao still wanted to mock Wan Shufang and others, Yanran had to remind her of one thing: "Sister Yaoyao, if the powder developed by Wan Shufang doesn't work, you and I will have to find a way to protect ourselves."

Liu Yaoyao was interrupted and the words were stuck in her throat, unable to come out. It was like a thorn stuck inside her throat, making her feel very uncomfortable.

But Yanran was not wrong, so Liu Yaoyao could only hold back her words, her cheeks flushed as she said, "I know."

She just couldn't stand Jiang Wanli and Tu Zhizhi's condescending attitude.

She had never acted like this in front of Chen Changli and his wife, so why did they do this? Besides, she had her own little thoughts.

Seeing that Liu Yaoyao had figured it out, Yanran immediately yelled at Jiang Wanli and the others, "You two are forcing Chen Changli like this, aren't you just afraid of those weirdos?"

"If you are scared, you should kneel on the ground and beg Chen Changli. Why are you forcing him like this? You can't be trying to push him out as a shield so you can find a way to escape."

"The entire cold palace has long been surrounded by weirdos. The safety of this Imperial Hospital is all thanks to the medicinal powder developed by Wan Shufang. Without this medicinal powder, the weirdos outside would have rushed in long ago."

"Tu Zhizhi, Jiang Wanli, if you two want to live, you have to show your abilities and stop talking here."
