When Jiang Xuan said this, Wan Shufang could not help but stand there in a daze. After a moment, she sighed and said, "It turns out that this matter can be thought of from this direction."

“No wonder Ye Yun and the Eighth Prince were not in a hurry and kept asking Tu Zhizhi to provoke Old Lady Shang.”

Wan Shufang touched her chin and thought for a moment, she didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "These two really are cousins, their thoughts and goals are the same, it's hard for Tu Zhizhi to be in the front."

"But this may not be what we think. We still have to pretend that we know nothing and observe them quietly."

"Perhaps if we understand them thoroughly, we can gain some advantages. If we make our purpose clear from the beginning, they will just join hands to deal with us."

As Wan Shufang's mind turned, an idea came to her mind.

She immediately warned Jiang Xuan, and then pondered some things. The more she thought about it, the more she felt that those who wanted to fight for the world had extremely dirty minds. If she was not careful, she might capsize in the ditch.

"I know what to do, don't worry." Listening to Wan Shufang's instructions, Jiang Xuan nodded repeatedly, indicating that he knew what to do and asked Wan Shufang not to worry about him.

When Wan Shufang heard his words, her uneasy heart calmed down a little, and then she waited silently for the reaction from Old Lady Shang.

Jiang Xuan stayed with her, waiting with him.

Wan Shufang didn't think there was anything wrong at first, but when Old Lady Shang came back, she thought of her identity as a member of the Gu clan and suddenly felt that something was wrong.

Just as she was about to speak, Old Lady Shang suddenly glanced at Jiang Xuan and asked in an inexplicable tone, "Why is he here? Whose idea was it?"

"Is this important?" Hearing that his tone was wrong, Wan Shufang already knew what was going on, but she didn't show it on her face. She just asked with a puzzled look on her face.

Old Lady Shang smiled and said, "You think it's unimportant? But I think it's very important. After all, Jiang Xuan is a member of the New Heaven Society."

"Whether his attitude towards you and your wife is good or bad depends on Chang Xuewei, not on how much benefit you and your wife have given him."

Without waiting for Wan Shufang to speak, Old Lady Shang continued, "No matter how many benefits you two give, they are not as good as the prince, so I will naturally be suspicious."

When she said this, she looked at Wan Shufang with an innocent face, as if wondering why she couldn't think of this.

"Don't you have any doubts? Could it be that during the time Jiang Xuan spent with you and your wife, he deliberately used a method I didn't know to gain your trust?"

Her rather unexpected words instantly made Jiang Xuan and Wan Shufang's faces darken.

Jiang Xuan tried to calm down, but he couldn't. He sneered, "Mrs. Shang, are you trying to sow discord? Unfortunately, your words are too clumsy. Even a fool wouldn't believe them."

"Are you a fool?" Old Lady Shang asked deliberately.

Jiang Xuan felt that she was disgusting him and said angrily, "You don't need to question whether I am a fool or not."

"Don't be angry." Hearing the anger in Jiang Xuan's words, Wan Shufang was worried that he would get angry and cause harm, so she immediately advised him.

Jiang Xuan looked at her listlessly and said, "This old woman's words are too irritating. If I'm not angry, wouldn't it make me look like I'm easy to bully?"

"I am a petty person who holds grudges, so I don't want people to think that I am easy to bully. I wish everyone in the world knew that I am not easy to mess with."

When Jiang Xuan finished speaking, his face darkened. It was obvious that he was very angry and couldn't suppress it.

Wan Shufang understood what he was thinking. Some words were stuck in her throat and she couldn't utter them.

She could only smile helplessly: "It's up to you. Anyway, Mrs. Shang is a kind person with a broad mind. She won't care about your rudeness."

When she said this, she praised Old Lady Shang a little, and then her pair of ink-black pupils stared at her, wanting to see her reaction.

Old Lady Shang met her gaze calmly, the corners of her mouth slightly raised, revealing a smile, "I was just worried that Jiang Xuan's identity would cause controversy, I never thought he would be so angry."

"If I had known he would be so angry, I wouldn't have said that. Wan Shufang, what do you think?"

She lightly pushed the words to Wan Shufang, as if pointing the finger at her.

Wan Shufang looked at her coldly, and said calmly, "If you ask me, you shouldn't say such things."

When Jiang Xuan heard her scolding Old Lady Shang like this, he couldn't help but laugh out loud.

His laughter was too abrupt, and Old Mrs. Shang gave him a cold look, then looked at Wan Shufang with an innocent face.

Seeing her calm face, as if she didn't take her emotional changes seriously, Old Lady Shang stopped pretending, restrained her expression, and said seriously: "I'm just worried about you, that's why I want you to be alert to Jiang Xuan."

"I didn't expect that you two had such a good relationship. I ended up being the villain for once."

As she spoke, she deliberately glanced at Jiang Xuan, then shook her head and sighed, "It feels so bad to be a villain. No wonder you can't accept it."

When she said this, she completely cleared herself of all blame.

Jiang Xuan understood the meaning of her words and rolled his eyes at her: "You just don't like to suffer losses, that's why you are annoying."

Intentionally emphasizing the tone of the last three words, Jiang Xuan rolled his eyes and said, "My identity is indeed different, but after going through so many things, my thoughts and ideas have long changed. Wan Shufang is willing to accept me, which means that I can help her better than you."

"Instead of reflecting on yourself, you come here to sow discord, as if you hope Wan Shufang will misunderstand me. Old Lady Shang, are you treating us like fools?"

"That's not right. If you thought we were fools, how could you say that you were a villain? You are not thinking of retreating to advance, and then taking advantage of the victory to pursue us."

Jiang Xuan became more and more confused as he spoke. He made two clicks of the tongue and then sighed repeatedly, "You are already old, and your own grandson has been caught by someone. You don't try to save him, but instead target the two of us. What are you thinking about?"

"You can't be crazy and do such a ridiculous thing. If Tu Zhizhi knew you were so stupid, wouldn't she be so happy?"

Jiang Xuan mentioned Tu Zhizhi deliberately, with the purpose of angering old lady Shang and making her clear her mind.

When Old Lady Shang heard what he said, she became so angry that her face turned blue and her breathing became rapid. Why was this guy so disgusting with his mouth?

"You are still the same. No wonder Chang Xuewei doesn't take you seriously. With your ignorant attitude, Chang Xuewei would have to be crazy to take you seriously."

Old Lady Shang's words were very impolite. What Jiang Xuan couldn't bear to hear the most now was the words "Chang Xuewei".

Old Lady Shang violated the taboo in front of him, which was simply trampling on his face and dignity.

His eyes were red with anger, and his voice was extremely cold: "This is a matter between us. Why do you always mention Chang Xuewei? Could it be that your loyalty to the Sixth Prince is false? The person you are truly loyal to is Chang Xuewei."
