When Mudan heard Tu Zhizhi's question, she quickly shook her head and said, "I didn't find anything wrong, girl. Maybe things are not that complicated. It's just that we don't know much, so it seems obscure."

Having said this, she held Tu Zhizhi tightly with her hand, and said in a gentle yet firm tone: "These people must be coming for the Eighth Prince. We have to tell the Eighth Prince about this and let him make a quick decision."

"But the Eighth Prince may not believe me, not to mention that this matter may not involve other princes." Tu Zhizhi was tempted, but when she thought of what Ye Yun said, she quickly shook her head.

"What does the girl mean?" Mudan looked confused.

Tu Zhizhi bit her lip and sighed, "The Eighth Prince doesn't have many useful people under his command. Besides, the Eighth Prince is now focused on the Phoenix Gu. If the Phoenix Gu doesn't fall into his hands, he won't send anyone else to investigate the matter."

When Mudan heard this, her eyes were covered with confusion, and then her lips moved for a long time without uttering a word.

Tu Zhizhi saw her expression and knew that she was dissatisfied with the Eighth Prince. She held her hand tightly and said meaningfully, "The Eighth Prince and we are not the same kind of people after all, so there is no need to make some things too clear."

"But the girl still needs to rely on him." Upon hearing this, Mudan felt as if she had been hit hard. Her face turned even paler and she almost fainted.

Tu Zhizhi was startled by her appearance, and quickly reached out to support her, and asked with great concern: "What happened? Why do you look so pale? Are you injured?"

When these three questions were asked, Mudan's eyes instantly turned red, and the tears that had been held back for a long time finally couldn't be controlled and fell down her cheeks.

"I received news that my parents were killed by the Quanrong people."

"I want to go back as soon as possible to find out the truth of the matter and avenge my parents."

"But now that I'm trapped here, how can I ever find out the truth?"

Mudan became sadder and sadder as she spoke, and in the end she completely broke down in tears.

When Tu Zhizhi heard her words, she immediately thought of Li Ye who betrayed her.

There was a hint of hostility in her eyes, but her tone was full of doubt: "How did you receive this news? By the way, did you have any contact with Li Ye before you left?"

"Did you see Li Ye receive any letters or meet anyone at that time?"

Tu Zhizhi still hasn't been able to get over Li Ye's matter. Although Li Ye lost the will to live because of his wife's experience and his daughter's death, she still hasn't figured out how Li Ye received the news.

Therefore, no matter how much she couldn't let it go, she couldn't just let it go. She had to find out the reason.

"I didn't encounter the situation you described." Mudan heard Tu Zhizhi say this, thinking about her own situation, her heart couldn't help but pounding, "Do you suspect that my situation will be the same as Li Ye's?"

Mudan had already received the news that Li Ye had betrayed Tu Zhizhi.

She was very angry with Li Ye at that time and cursed him several times in secret. Now, listening to Tu Zhizhi's words, she suddenly felt uneasy in her heart, but she didn't dare to show it on her face.

It was because she knew how cruel Tu Zhizhi's methods were. If she showed any signs of uneasiness, Tu Zhizhi would definitely strike first to prevent what happened to Li Ye from happening again.

"I have this idea, but it will take some time to find out the specific situation." Tu Zhizhi paused slightly, his tone calm.

After hearing this, Mudan regretted mentioning Li Ye in front of her.

However, he heaved a sigh of relief when he thought that he had not done anything to betray her, and that even if Tu Zhizhi wanted to prevent future troubles, she would not take any action in the short term.

"Leave this matter to me." Mudan volunteered.

Tu Zhizhi listened to this, looked at her carefully, and after making sure there was nothing wrong, she nodded.

Mudan immediately said goodbye to her and turned away.

Tu Zhizhi stayed where she was and watched her leave, with mixed emotions in her heart, but when she thought that she had no one else to use except Mudan, she gave up the terrible plan.

"Could it be that the person who passed the message to Mudan and Li Ye was Wen Baicao?"

Tu Zhizhi suddenly thought of Wen Baicao, and felt more and more that he was the most likely candidate, and she immediately hated him to death.

"Wen Baicao, if you really betrayed me, I will grind you to dust."

After saying this indignantly, Tu Zhizhi thought of Wen Ziyu who had made a promise to her, and smiled sarcastically.

"Wen Ziyu, ah Wen Ziyu, I've given you a chance, please don't let me down, or I'll make sure you and your father die together without a burial place."

After saying this fiercely, Tu Zhizhi calmed herself down and waited patiently for Ye Yun to arrive.

Wen Ziyu, whom she was thinking about, was thrown in front of Wen Baicao.

"This man is behaving in a sneaky way. I'm afraid he was sent by the Eighth Prince." After being tricked by Ye Yun, Li Keyi led his men back in shame.

After he escaped back, he wanted to persuade his brother and the ninth prince to capture Yongzhou City in one go. However, when he received the news that the sixth prince had sent people to Yongzhou City, he had to give up the idea.

After a few days, he adjusted his mood, trained his troops, and waited for an accident to happen inside Yongzhou City so that he could lead his men to attack.

He didn't expect to meet Wen Ziyu. As soon as he saw Wen Ziyu, who was somewhat similar to Wen Baicao, he knew his identity and brought him to Wen Baicao.

"Zi Yu? Why are you here? Didn't I ask you to stay in Yongzhou City?"

Wen Baicao ignored Li Keyi's meaningful look and looked Wen Ziyu up and down. Seeing that he was not seriously injured, she immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

"Dad, why don't you go back to Yongzhou City?" Wen Ziyu did not answer Wen Baicao, but asked with a painful look on his face.

Seeing that the expression on his face was not right, Wen Baicao narrowed her eyes dangerously, then signaled Li Keyi to leave first.

Li Keyi looked at him for a while, then sighed and said, "Your son may be related to the Eighth Prince."

"I have nothing to do with the Eighth Prince. I'm just worried about Miss Disciple and want to help her solve her problems." Wen Ziyu was impatient to hear words related to the Eighth Prince and retorted immediately.

When Li Keyi heard his words, his eyebrows slightly raised: "Miss Disciple?"

Without waiting for Wen Ziyu to react, he set his eyes on Wen Baicao and said with a half-smile, "Could it be that your son has fallen in love with Tu Zhizhi?"

Wen Baicao's eyelids jumped when she heard this, but she said, "Although Tu Zhizhi is Tu Yuanzhou's sister, she is a woman and can't do much good. Instead of worrying that she will use her affection to seduce my son, you might as well worry that the Eighth Prince will be fooled by her."

"Could it be that the Eighth Prince also likes Tu Zhizhi?" Li Keyi became curious when he heard this.

Wen Ziyu's expression suddenly turned ugly: "The Eighth Prince is not worthy of Miss Tu, and Miss Tu will not like him either. Don't bring them together, lest you ruin Miss Tu's reputation."

Li Keyi was surprised when he heard this, and then said to Wen Baicao: "I didn't expect your son is such a romantic, it's really rare."
