Abandoned by the best children? I just take out the space
Chapter 1429 Unpredictable
Listening to Wan Shufang's sarcastic words, the Eighth Prince suddenly felt that he was a little narrow-minded and was being looked down upon.
He was not very happy in his heart, and it showed on his face unconsciously.
"Tu Zhizhi is as cunning as a fox, and Chen Changli has met her before. If they both have the will, not only can they hide it from me, but they can also make you cooperate without knowing it."
The Eighth Prince's words clearly meant that Chen Changli and Tu Zhizhi were working together to put on a show for others to see, and Wan Shufang knew nothing about it, but because she had selfish motives, she deliberately cooperated with the two to lie to fool him.
Wan Shufang was so angry at his words that she almost yelled. Chen Changli noticed that her emotions were aroused by the Eighth Prince, and immediately reached out to hold her hand, saying softly: "Don't be angry, it's not worth it."
Upon hearing this, Wan Shufang immediately looked up at him. Seeing the worry for her in his eyes, the fire burning in her heart was extinguished in an instant as if it were doused by ice water.
She slowly exhaled a breath of turbid air, and said with a forced smile on her face: "I won't be angry with such a person. After all, I know how unworthy it is."
She deliberately dragged out the last word as she spoke so that the Eighth Prince would realize his mistake.
The Eighth Prince tried hard to force himself to suppress his anger, but Wan Shufang's words were too much. The harder he tried to suppress his anger, the more intense it became.
His eyes were fixed on Wan Shufang like knives. If looks could kill, he would have wanted to cut Wan Shufang into pieces.
Feeling his tangible murderous intent, Chen Changli frowned and said in a cold tone, "Eighth Prince, my wife is so concerned that she said such things. If you argue with her, wouldn't you be condoning the killer?"
"These are two different things. Don't mix them together." The Eighth Prince almost laughed out of anger when he heard this.
Chen Changli sighed: "These are indeed two different things, but once life and death are involved, the two things are connected. If the Eighth Prince ignores this point, will it give the traitors an opportunity to take advantage of it?"
Yongzhou was supposed to be the Eighth Prince's territory, but unexpectedly the Eighth Prince had little control over Yongzhou.
No wonder Tu Zhizhi seemed to take the Eighth Prince seriously, but was actually very selfish and would not listen to what the Eighth Prince said at all.
When Chen Changli thought of this, he chuckled with an ambiguous meaning.
The Eighth Prince coveted the Phoenix Gu, but he was not very eager. Perhaps it was Tu Zhizhi's reaction that made him wary.
If he wanted to take advantage of the situation, he naturally needed the couple to be alive and well, so that Tu Zhizhi would have a sense of crisis.
"Who is the traitor you are talking about?" The Eighth Prince met Chen Changli's all-knowing eyes and immediately felt that his plan had been seen through by him.
He felt very uncomfortable, but when he thought of the contents of the letter, he had to suppress his discomfort and stared at Chen Changli with an inexplicable expression.
Although he had not appeared in front of Chen Changli in the past few days, he was aware of Chen Changli's words and actions in the past few days.
He knew that Chen Changli had some guesses in his mind, so he wanted to delay time and test himself.
"That depends on what you think, or who do you think will betray you?" Chen Changli did not answer directly, but asked a question that hit the heart of the matter.
The Eighth Prince was silent for a moment, and spoke gently: "Ofurong is a powerful weapon. As long as I use it well, I can get any talent. As for the Phoenix Gu, if I didn't want to control people's hearts, I wouldn't even think of using it."
His words bluntly and helplessly expressed to Chen Changli what he was thinking, and also made Chen Changli certain that Lin Jing's guess was correct. Tu Zhizhi and Ye Yun seemed to be loyal to the Eighth Prince, but in fact they wanted to control him so that they could gain greater benefits.
Unfortunately, Tu Zhizhi's identity meant that the Eighth Prince could not trust her, and would also make him quickly realize what she had done wrong.
Because Ye Yun is the eighth prince's cousin, even if the eighth prince suspects him, due to the constraints of family ties, he can only trust Ye Yun and find ways to let Ye Yun give him advice.
Perhaps because Ye Yun was too close to the Eighth Prince, he was not aware of his own thoughts and just did what he wanted. As a result, he firmly believed that he was helping the Eighth Prince and eliminating dissidents.
"You have to sacrifice to gain. Eighth Prince, you should follow your heart. Of course, I will never agree with anything that is against the will of heaven and earth. If you are so cruel, I will stop you at the cost of my life."
As Chen Changli's mind raced, he guessed the eighth prince's dilemma clearly.
He gave some kind words of advice and then made his attitude clear.
The Eighth Prince sighed helplessly: "I used to look down on Phoenix Gu, a thing that harms the heaven and earth. After all, my status is there, how can I rule the world with this kind of Gu."
"Unfortunately, the situation forces me to keep it in mind and even try to find a way to make it as powerful as recorded in history books."
"But you can rest assured. I have been a prince for decades. Although I don't look down on the people, I want to be the emperor. If an emperor has no living people under his command, what is the meaning of the throne?"
The Eighth Prince deliberately emphasized his tone so that Chen Changli would know his plan.
"So I will not drain the pond to catch fish. I will only turn those who disobey me into ignorant puppets."
The eighth prince's last words were full of murderous intent, but Chen Changli remained calm, obviously having expected it.
Wan Shufang and Jiang Xuan couldn't accept it, and they glared at the Eighth Prince.
The Eighth Prince ignored the two of them and fixed his eyes on Chen Changli, as if waiting for his reaction.
Chen Changli sighed: "Everyone has his own aspirations."
The concise words said it all, and after hearing it, the Eighth Prince suddenly felt much more relaxed.
He actually wanted to win over Chen Changli, and Chen Changli was aware of this, but they had different plans for the future, so Chen Changli naturally rejected him.
Given his temper, he should have turned against him.
But when he met Chen Changli's cold and obscure eyes, he suddenly understood why Chen Changli insisted.
"I can use the Phoenix Gu, so if you can't escape safely with Wan Shufang and Jiang Xuan, then do as I say, otherwise the three of you will be doomed."
As his mind became clear, the Eighth Prince understood more and more what he wanted.
Even if Ye Yun and Tu Zhizhi had something to ask for and felt that they were easy to control, he would not be angry anymore. He would just try his best to use these two people to achieve his wishes.
The Phoenix Gu was the best weapon for him to achieve his wish. He was eager to get it and was no longer as conflicted as before.
"What will happen to the Phoenix Gu? It depends on whether you can find the spy around you. If not, this Phoenix Gu will only serve as a bait, causing you to fight endlessly with other princes, and end up with a lose-lose situation in the end." Chen Changli looked worried.
He understood what the Eighth Prince meant, but he had no idea how many people coveted the Phoenix Gu.
Will Tu Zhizhi and Ye Yun take action against Phoenix Gu? The Eighth Prince was not sure.
If several people collide with each other, the fight will probably end to the death. Chen Changli cannot predict who will benefit in the end.
