Wan Shufang glanced at Yanran, and met her innocent and curious eyes. She was a little emotional, but she didn't show it on her face. She just said thoughtfully: "The poisons I research are not to harm people, they are used to save people. Naturally, they are not as toxic as the poisonous insects you control."

"Is that so?" Yanran was stunned.

Wan Shufang smiled and said, "In fact, if poison is used well, it can save lives, but it depends on what the person using the poison thinks."

After saying this with a smile, Wan Shufang glanced at Liu Yaoyao and the Crown Princess not far away, but her mind was constantly turning.

Liu Yaoyao and the others knew about her being with the deputy leader. Could it be that they had also arranged for someone in the White Lotus Sect? Or was the White Lotus Sect infiltrated by them from the beginning?

As the leader of the White Lotus Sect, is Xu Qinglu aware of this matter?

If she doesn't know about this, what about Princess An Qing?

Both of them have close ties with the traitor Tu Yuanzhou. As the White Lotus Sect exists for Tu Yuanzhou to collect information, it is impossible for him to let the White Lotus Sect escape from his control.

How did Liu Yaoyao and others know what she did around the deputy leader? Could it be that the master Liu Yaoyao was talking about was Tu Yuanzhou?

When Wan Shufang thought of Tu Yuanzhou causing trouble in the Western Border, her brows unconsciously frowned.

The war in the Western Territory is tense. If Tu Yuanzhou is determined to capture Dajing, all his attention will be on the Western Territory. How can he pay attention to the affairs of Luoyang City? Unless he has sent people to stir up trouble before that.

When Wan Shufang's thoughts turned to this, she couldn't help but think of Princess An Qing and Xu Qinglu. If these two people were Tu Yuanzhou's backup plans, Liu Yaoyao would not have exposed her whereabouts today.

She can do things better hiding in the dark without being discovered.

Even if the Crown Princess went to meet the Eighth Prince, she might not be able to detect anything from him. If Liu Yaoyao did something during this period, or used the Eighth Prince to plot against the Crown Princess, then her plot would be successful.

Liu Yaoyao looked quite smart, not stupid, so how could she be so confused? Unless the significance of meeting the Crown Princess was too great, she had to expose herself.

When Wan Shufang thought of this, her frown did not relax, but became tighter and tighter, because Liu Yaoyao's behavior could easily be misunderstood.

She guessed that there was something wrong with Liu Yaoyao's behavior. Although she couldn't figure out her purpose, she could guess that she had ulterior motives.

She was a little worried that she would say some half-truths to the Crown Princess, which would upset her and make her do something irrational.

Yanran suddenly asked, "Madam General, are you worried about the Crown Princess?"

Wan Shufang nodded immediately: "Your identities and purposes are unknown, so I am naturally worried about the Crown Princess."

After that, she looked back at Yanran, and saw that she tilted her head slightly, as if she was confused about what she said, so she asked tentatively: "What is your master's last name?"

Yanran's eyes turned and she smiled and said, "The last name is Liu."

Wan Shufang couldn't help but twitch her lips when she heard this. This little girl looked innocent, but she actually had some little thoughts. No wonder Liu Yaoyao was so confident in letting her stay with her.

"Isn't your sister Yaoyao's surname Liu? She has an inseparable relationship with the remnants of the previous dynasty. If her master's surname is also Liu, doesn't it mean that she has been deceiving me and the Crown Princess from the beginning to the end?"

Wan Shufang deliberately raised her tone, but her eyes were fixed on Yanran, not missing the slightest change on her face.

Yanran didn't know what she was thinking about, her expression was a little stiff, but she returned to normal after a while, and said innocently: "Sister Yaoyao will not lie to you."

After she said this, she said no more, and the atmosphere around them became a little stagnant for a moment.

Wan Shufang felt the stagnant atmosphere, her expression remained calm, but a faint smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.

I won't lie! The meaning of these words is extraordinary. Yanran said it so seriously. It seems that Liu Yaoyao is really going to say something to the Crown Princess. She is looking forward to what Liu Yaoyao will say.

Unfortunately, Liu Yaoyao seemed to be holding back. She talked with the Crown Princess for less than a cup of tea. She asked Yanran to leave with her, leaving the Crown Princess alone, frowning and thinking about something.

Seeing this, Wan Shufang did not stop her, but went straight to the Crown Princess and looked at her with concern.

Seeing her pale face, as if she had been hit, and her whole body seemed to be shaky and fragile, Wan Shufang was worried: "Liu Yaoyao said some unpleasant words."

The Crown Princess shook her head, but her eyes were somewhat vague and cast into the distance, as if she didn't know how to speak to Wan Shufang.

Seeing her embarrassment, Wan Shufang knew that she was troubled, so she immediately decided to change the subject: "She must have bad intentions, Crown Princess, let's go back first. Let's find another time to talk about today's matter, maybe we can get some unexpected results."

Every word she said was for the Crown Princess's benefit. The Crown Princess felt very uncomfortable after hearing this, but after much hesitation, she decided to tell her what Liu Yaoyao had told her.

"Liu Yaoyao is indeed a member of the Liu family. The reason she came from the capital to Luoyang City was because Concubine De saved her."

"As I guessed, Concubine De also used some poison to control people. These people helped Concubine De do a lot of things."

Having said this, the Crown Princess looked bitter, as if what Liu Yaoyao had said to her had caused her a great shock.

Even if she told what she knew, she would still feel a little overwhelmed by some things.

"Some of the things that happened between Prince Duan and the Fourth Prince were actually part of their plan. Their original intention was to support the Sixth Prince to ascend to the throne, but they didn't expect that Prince Duan and the Fourth Prince would end up hurting both of them. The Sixth Prince was frightened and fled Luoyang City without hesitation."

"Liu Yaoyao was supposed to leave with the Sixth Prince, but she didn't expect that Concubine De would die at this time. The people left by Concubine De needed someone to manage them, so Liu Yaoyao stayed to take over these people."

"She used these people to do something, and the Eighth Prince knew it very well, so she didn't want us to meet the Eighth Prince."

The Crown Princess paused for a moment when she spoke this, and her eyes fell on Wan Shufang.

Seeing that she frowned slightly, as if she was confused, the Crown Princess was silent for a while and then grabbed her hand, saying in a rather anxious tone: "I am going to meet the Eighth Prince in the evening. Do you want to come with me?"

Wan Shufang hesitated: "Are you still planning to meet him? Liu Yaoyao told you these things clearly to warn you. If you don't listen to her, she might have other tricks up her sleeve."

The Crown Princess tensed her face and said calmly, "I know what she meant, but I am not convinced. Besides, the timing of her appearance was too clever. I doubt her and the Eighth Prince, and I am ready to test him."
