Abandoned by the best children? I just take out the space
Chapter 1382 Cunning
The old emperor was extremely suspicious, and became more and more foolish as he aged. Old Lady Shang knew this very well, but she used the old emperor as an example on purpose, just to drive a nail into Chen Changli's heart.
Chen Changli saw through her plan, his face darkened instantly, and his voice was as cold as frost: "The prince is the prince, and the emperor is the emperor. Even if they are father and son, they can never be exactly the same, because the prince is also of the Xu family's bloodline."
"What did you say?" Old Mrs. Shang looked shocked.
Chen Changli looked at her coldly, and seeing that her face was full of shock, as if she was hearing such news for the first time, his mood suddenly became complicated.
He lowered his eyelids, using his long and curly eyelashes to hide the emotions deep in his eyes, and said with a smile: "The Crown Prince is not the Queen's son. I'm afraid this has already been spread among the princes."
"As the Sixth Prince's man, how could you not know about this? Unless the Sixth Prince doesn't trust you enough, but you helped him get opium, how could he not trust you?"
"Don't try to sow discord." Old Mrs. Shang heard what he meant and her expression became even uglier.
Chen Changli curled his lips and smiled: "I'm not trying to instigate, I'm just telling the truth, what do you think? That's up to you, it has nothing to do with me."
"You cunning boy, I really want to cut off your tongue so that you can never speak again." Old Mrs. Shang was at a loss whether to laugh or cry when she heard this.
She suddenly felt that the reason why Chen Changli was valued by many people was not only because of his ability, but also because of his eloquence.
Unfortunately, people with different ideals cannot work together. No matter how much she realizes that Chen Changli is a rare talent, she cannot win him over for the Sixth Prince because his heart belongs to the Crown Prince.
As her mind became clear, Old Lady Shang's expression softened and she no longer treated Chen Changli and the other two with indifference.
She raised her head, glanced at Wan Shufang first, then at Jiang Xuan, and then her gaze fell on Chen Changli, and she sighed softly.
"To be honest, I am the Sixth Prince's man. I went to the villa undercover just to get opium. It was a complete accident that I learned about the Phoenix Gu. It was also a surprise."
"I originally planned to destroy the villa after obtaining the secret recipe for making opium, and then go find Chang Xuewei to get the Phoenix Gu."
"I never thought that things in the outside world would change so quickly. The Phoenix Gu has an inexplicable connection with you and has entered your body."
At this point, Old Lady Shang also felt that things were too strange, and the look in her eyes as she looked at Chen Changli became increasingly subtle.
"The first time I saw you at the villa, I was wondering what I could do to remove the Phoenix Gu. It was at this time that Jiang Kezhou contacted me and said that my blood could be used to remove the Phoenix Gu."
"I didn't think much about it at the time. I left a subtle scent on you the second time I met you."
Wan Shufang was quite shocked: "Anxiang? What is this?"
The second time Old Lady Shang met Chen Changli, she was right next to him, how come she didn't notice the subtle fragrance? The most important thing is that she checked Chen Changli's pulse many times afterwards, but found nothing.
"Chen Changli, how do you feel?" Wan Shufang looked at Chen Changli with concern, fearing that something might happen to him in the blink of an eye.
"I feel fine, nothing's wrong." Chen Changli didn't think that the secret fragrance would harm people. After thinking about it, he looked at Old Lady Shang and said, "The secret fragrance in your mouth is a special kind of fragrance that allows you to track me."
Old Lady Shang nodded: "This subtle fragrance is the result of many years of research by my husband and me. No one can understand it except us. Even the most skilled doctors cannot detect this smell, because only specially cultivated Gu worms can smell it."
When Wan Shufang heard that only the Gu worm could smell the smell, her heart immediately rose to her throat. She looked at Old Lady Shang as if she were looking at a dead person, "Hurry up and get rid of it."
Old Lady Shang smiled coldly: "This secret fragrance is not easy to come by, and its effects are widespread. How can I remove it just because of your words? What's more, you two are my enemies. If I help you, the Sixth Prince will kill me when he finds out."
"Although I am not afraid of death, I have not yet avenged my great vengeance. I have not even seen what Yanran looks like. How can I die so easily?"
After hearing her chattering away, Wan Shufang's face turned green with anger.
She was about to open her mouth to refute so as to silence Old Lady Shang.
Chen Changli held her hand and shook his head at her, "Don't argue with her, or you'll get angry."
Wan Shufang took a deep breath, then exhaled, and said in a cold voice: "So Jiang Kezhou was able to find us not because of the Hibiscus Health Pills, but because of this subtle fragrance."
"He pretended so well that I really thought it was the Furong Health Pills that caught his attention, and that's why he appeared in front of us to stop us."
Wan Shufang was about to explode with anger when she thought about the lie Jiang Kezhou and Old Lady Shang had told her.
This subtle fragrance can track people, and she has no ability to detect it. If Old Lady Shang continues to be alive, wouldn't Chen Changli be in danger at any time?
"Speaking of cunning, who in this world can be as cunning as you?" Jiang Xuan did not expect that Old Lady Shang would do such a thing.
He stared at Old Lady Shang with shock on his face, as if he wanted to expose all the secrets beneath her skin.
"The news of Jiang Kezhou's death didn't change your expression. I think you have the confidence to face what might happen next. Then, can I suspect that you did something to the three of us again in broad daylight?"
As soon as Jiang Xuan said this, Wan Shufang's face changed drastically, and she looked at Old Lady Shang with murderous eyes.
Old Lady Shang met her gaze and said calmly, "Don't look at me like that. The reason why the fragrance fell on Chen Changli is naturally because he has the Phoenix Gu. You and Jiang Xuan have nothing, so I won't do anything to you."
"So we have to thank Phoenix Gu." Wan Shufang's words were full of sarcasm.
Jiang Xuan's face was also full of coldness: "Phoenix Gu is so important, it's normal for you to be concerned about it, but you didn't say that in front of Jiang Kezhou before. It seems that you and Jiang Kezhou have different thoughts. No wonder you are not sad at all when he died."
Jiang Xuan said this angrily, and he didn't know what he was thinking about. His face turned pale and blue, looking very ugly.
"Why did you tell us about Anxiang? If we don't know about this, and you try to protect yourself, then no matter where we go, you can still have people catch us, right?"
Wan Shufang's face suddenly tensed when she was reminded of this, and the poison in her palm was almost melted by the temperature.
"What are you planning? Or do you want to betray the Sixth Prince?"
Old Mrs. Shang laughed out loud, as if she was laughing at Wan Shufang's thoughts which were not presentable enough.
"I'm not Jiang Kezhou, and I'm old too. I have no interest in fighting for the world. But if you are interested, I'd be happy to lend you a hand."
