Abandoned by the best children? I just take out the space

Chen Changli's expression changed slightly, and he deliberately mentioned the escape route the prince had left for them.

But the prince went to the border, and he had no idea what the situation was in Bashu. If he said the wrong thing to Wan Shufang, wouldn't that make her wait in vain?

Thinking of this, Chen Changli sighed slightly: "We do need to prepare for the retreat, but I don't have any idea how to prepare it now."

"Didn't you say before..." Wan Shufang shut up immediately after saying this.

The escape route that Chen Changli mentioned before was arranged by the prince. Now that the prince has gone to the border, his arrangements may fail.

Wan Shufang felt very uncomfortable when she thought of this.

The fact that the prince was able to find a way to keep a backup plan shows that he is not pedantic and has a long-term vision. He is willing to make all preparations for the people he cares about behind the emperor's back.

However, some of the emperor's ideas and plans stopped him, forcing him to hide his plans.

Since they have an unclear relationship with the prince, how could the emperor not find a way to keep an eye on their family when the prince is not in Luoyang City?

With the emperor watching them in secret, they had to be cautious in everything they did. Otherwise, at the emperor's first signal, many people would pounce on them, destroying them from all hope.

"Some things are really inconvenient to say, for fear that there may be ears on the other side of the wall." Wan Shufang pursed her lips before saying this.

Chen Changli looked a little gloomy but didn't say much. He just held Wan Shufang's hand silently.

His strength was neither heavy nor light, and Wan Shufang understood his thoughts after feeling it.

She sighed to Chen Changli, and then turned the topic to what she and Mrs. Yu had discovered.

"The Queen couldn't sit still, but within one day, many doctors were kidnapped in Luoyang City. The families of those doctors were silenced and would not tell the story of the doctors' disappearance, but they were also worried about their families. "

"Madam Yu and I noticed something was wrong, so we used them to find clues to Duke Cheng'en's mansion. Thinking of the feud between the Queen and the Crown Princess, I thought the Queen deliberately led the clues to Duke Cheng'en's mansion, and her purpose was probably to bring Duke Cheng'en down."

Hearing this, Chen Changli quickly said: "Mr. Cheng'en is a smart man. If the Queen really tries to trick him, he will definitely fight back. Besides, the Queen and Mr. Cheng'en share some secrets. If Mr. Cheng'en is betrayed by The queen is plotting, and the queen will not end well."

"Why do you say that?" Wan Shufang was a little surprised.

She had thought that Duke Cheng'en and the Queen would fall out over a Crown Princess. Now the Queen was clearly plotting against Duke Cheng'en. If Duke Cheng'en were to find out that it was the Queen's fault, the Queen and Duke Cheng'en would probably be on guard against each other and try to find ways to deal with each other.

Why did Chen Changli think differently from her? Could it be that Duke Cheng'en was still willing to be the queen's backer?

"After all, the queen belongs to Duke Cheng'en's palace. As long as she stays in the position of queen for one day, Duke Cheng'en's palace can maintain its superficial glory."

Although Chen Changli felt that Duke Cheng'en really loved the Crown Princess, the Crown Princess was nothing compared to interests and family glory.

The current conflict between the Queen and Cheng En Gong is ultimately traced to the fact that the Queen attacked the Crown Princess without telling Cheng En Gong.

In other words, the Queen did not regard Duke Cheng'en as her own. Duke Cheng'en was worried that the Queen would drag him down, so he naturally expressed his position in front of the Emperor and asked the Queen to use the matter of the Crown Princess to give him a guarantee.

The queen is not a fool, she clearly understands what Cheng'en Palace means to her.

She would offend Duke Cheng'en because of the Crown Princess, but she would not lose the support of Duke Cheng'en's Mansion because of the Crown Princess.

She has now cut off the clue at Duke Cheng'en's mansion, most likely hoping to use this method to have a good talk with Duke Cheng'en.

If the brother and sister settle the matter, the Crown Princess may be completely abandoned by the Duke Cheng'en's palace, and Wan Shufang, who is close to the Crown Princess, may also be sent to the Queen by Duke Cheng'en.

"Shufang, I think this matter needs to be investigated as soon as possible, and we should pay attention to Duke Cheng'en's every move. If he really decides to make peace with the Queen, you and the Crown Princess may become abandoned, so we need to find out what they are thinking now and in the future."

Chen Changli told Wan Shufang some of his guesses and his concerns, and began to arrange for people to investigate the matter.

His people grew up on the battlefield, and their ability to find out information was not comparable to that of the spies arranged by Princess An Qing.

In less than half a day, they traced the case back to Princess An Qing. Later, through Princess An Qing's people, they found out that the doctors were kidnapped and taken to the royal manor.

As the name suggests, the Royal Manor is the private manor of the royal family. It is heavily guarded and there is no way for ordinary people to get close to it.

The people who came to inquire about the information hid themselves in the lush jungle, and used various methods to observe the situation outside the royal estate, trying to find out more information.

However, in addition to the royal family coming to this royal estate, on weekdays the stewards of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and some tenant farmers come here to work on some fields.

So at the end of the day, apart from the tenants coming and going, no one entered or left the royal estate.

The people hiding in the dark felt that this was not going to work, so they decided to split up, but before that, they had to tell Chen Changli the information they had collected.

At midnight, Chen Changli received the news, and his expression suddenly became very strange.

He thought thoughtfully, "How is it related to Princess An Qing? Could it be that Princess An Qing planned the kidnapping of these doctors? Does Xu Qinglu know about this? If she knows, why didn't she tell me? Could it be that she is also targeting Shufang?"

When Chen Changli's thoughts turned to this, he felt that Xu Qinglu had not told the truth to him, so he immediately got up and went to Dali Temple.

Because Zhao Xu gave him the task of interrogating Princess An Qing before he left, although he came to the Dali Temple in the middle of the night, it would attract attention, but no one would think much of it.

However, Xu Qinglu really didn't expect Chen Changli to disturb her sweet dream in the middle of the night. She immediately glared at Chen Changli with a gloomy face and said in a sarcastic tone: "What do you want from me in the middle of the night? Are you trying to let me out?"

Speaking of this issue, Xu Qinglu suddenly became more energetic, and her eyes brightened when she looked at Chen Changli, "Do you really have the courage? Chen Changli, if you let me out, you will be regarded as a rebel by the old emperor. "

"I don't have such plans, don't talk nonsense." Chen Changli frowned, "I just came here to ask you one thing, I hope you can answer truthfully."

Seeing his serious expression, as if he was eager to confirm some information from her, Xu Qinglu felt guilty, but said coldly: "If I don't answer, what will you do? Are you going to treat me as a traitor and execute me?"
