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

"He wants to tell me that there are always people better than you. If I don't accept it, I will just fall into someone else's trap." The Crown Princess said this very sincerely, as if she really thought so in her heart.

Wan Shufang, however, felt that she was just using such words to fool Yun Qiongying and had no intention of telling her her guess.

Pursing her lips slightly, Wan Shufang cooperated with the Crown Princess to comfort Yun Qiongying, and then followed the Crown Princess to see Haitang.

On the way, the Crown Princess sighed and said, "If Haitang was bribed, then it makes sense that Liu Yaoyao would discover my whereabouts."

When Wan Shufang heard her unpleasant tone, she knew that she was very concerned about this matter.

Liu Yaoyao said that she wanted to tell the Crown Princess something important, but she just wanted to stop the Crown Princess from meeting the Eighth Prince, and what she told the Crown Princess was just to divert her attention.

The Crown Princess didn't listen to Liu Yaoyao's words at all. She just wanted to test the Eighth Prince in her own way and follow the clues to investigate Liu Yaoyao.

Wan Shufang guessed that Liu Yaoyao had a certain understanding of the Crown Princess and felt that she might not be able to stop her, which exposed the thorns placed around her.

"It's a good thing that she took action, otherwise we would go to see the Eighth Prince at night and get no news." Wan Shufang comforted the Crown Princess with words.

"You are absolutely right. I was obsessed." The Crown Princess's breathing became a little rapid, and the hairs on her body stood up.

She thought of Liu Yaoyao's words and tried her best to calm herself, but it was difficult to control her body's reaction.

She could only take a deep breath and force herself to suppress her uneasiness, while holding Wan Shufang tightly in her hands.

Feeling the warmth of Wan Shufang's palm, the Crown Princess felt much better.

She moved her lips as if she wanted to say something to Wan Shufang, but after moving her lips for a long time, no word came out.

Seeing her change in expression, Yun Qiongying, who was standing next to Wan Shufang, was startled.

She held the handkerchief tightly with her fingers, frowned unconsciously, and asked, "Sister, are you hiding something from me?"

The Crown Princess glanced at her and said, "What could I possibly be hiding from you? Silly girl, don't make wild guesses."

Yun Qiongying glanced at the Crown Princess unhappily and said in an unhappy tone: "The matter of Haitang is a little strange, and your conversation with the general's wife is also strange, so I will naturally have wild thoughts."

After she finished speaking, she looked at the Crown Princess eagerly, her tone containing a trace of sadness: "Sister, you made a promise to me before, how come you forgot it in less than a month."

"I haven't forgotten." Hearing the word "promise", the Crown Princess knew that Yun Qiongying really wanted to help her and didn't want her to hide anything from her.

But she had no idea who was behind Liu Yaoyao, and someone was watching her every move, so how could she dare to drag the innocent Yun Qiongying into it?

"I am so happy that you are able to help me. How could I hide anything from you?" The Crown Princess smiled faintly, "Qiongying, you have to trust me."

Yun Qiongying opened her mouth and said, "I believe in you, sister, but I am worried that you will always treat me like a child and don't want me to help you."

As she spoke this, her cheeks puffed up in grievance.

Wan Shufang couldn't help but smile and said, "What you and Xiyun did can help me and the Crown Princess a lot, so how can it not be considered a contribution?"

"I..." Yun Qiongying's cheeks turned red.

The Crown Princess pretended to be angry and said, "General's wife is right. What you two are doing will help me a lot."

She gently held Yun Qiongying's hand and sighed: "I know your feelings very well and I will never forget them. But some things are too dangerous. You are my sister, I love you so much, how can I let you take risks?"

Yun Qiongying sensed the Crown Princess's concern for her, and she knew very well that what the Crown Princess and Wan Shufang had been doing recently were very dangerous.

She wanted to help, but didn't know where to start. No wonder the Crown Princess didn't want to tell her anything. She must have been worried that something might happen to her.

Yun Qiongying figured things out as soon as she understood them. She said calmly, "I understand what you mean, sister. I will be obedient."

She assured the Crown Princess not to worry about her anymore.

When the Crown Princess saw how well-behaved and sensible she was, she felt a little melancholy.

Her problem hasn't been solved yet, but Yun Qiongying is already wishing she could give up her life.

If Yun Qiongying knew that the remnants of the previous dynasty were still lurking in Luoyang City, and that they were connected to the Eighth Prince, wouldn't she lose her life if she did nothing?

The Crown Princess cares a lot about her sister Yun Qiongying, and she hopes that she will be safe and happy, and doesn't want her to be involved in any dangerous things.

But even the Cheng'en Mansion might have been infiltrated. Does she really have the ability to protect her sister?

The Crown Princess had something on her mind, and her face turned ugly, but she adjusted her mood after a while and took Yun Qiongying and Wan Shufang to find Haitang.

At this time, the butler was still guarding the place where Haitang was imprisoned. When the Crown Princess and the others arrived, he quickly came forward as if he had expected it, and asked with concern: "Why don't the eldest and second young ladies have a good rest? I will interrogate Haitang's matter carefully. If there is any problem, I and the Duke will definitely handle it properly."

When the Crown Princess heard him say this, she subconsciously looked back past his figure, but she only saw a closed door and two maids guarding outside the door.

After letting out a sigh of relief, the Crown Princess asked in confusion, "What did Haitang do before she left the palace? Why was she locked up here by you?"

She did not question the housekeeper directly, but asked why Haitang was imprisoned, just because she felt that the housekeeper knew something.

"Haitang is such a bold girl that she even dared to poison the meals prepared in the kitchen." The housekeeper did not hide anything from the Crown Princess and told her what Haitang had done straightforwardly.

"Poison? Haitang is my personal maid. She doesn't know anything about medicine. And she went out today under my orders. How could she come to the kitchen and poison someone?"

The Crown Princess was taken aback, and suddenly understood why Wan Shufang asked her to see Haitang. It was obvious that she suspected there was another reason why Haitang was imprisoned.

But why did Haitang poison? What purpose did she achieve by doing so?

The fact that her father was able to get the housekeeper to catch Haitang means that he had known about Haitang for a long time.

The Crown Princess's mind was racing, with all kinds of thoughts flying around in her head but she couldn't grasp them. She could only stare at the butler expectantly, hoping that he could answer her questions.

The butler met the Crown Princess's gaze, knowing very well what she wanted to know. It was just that Haitang's poisoning happened suddenly, and he was able to catch Haitang because he happened to run into her in the kitchen.

"I don't know why Haitang did this. But Haitang tried to commit suicide. I was worried that she was hiding something very important from the young lady, so I locked her up."

Having said this, the butler deliberately looked up at the Crown Princess and continued speaking.

"Haitang's reaction is very strange. After thinking it over, I told the Duke about this matter. Now the people sent by the Duke are interrogating Haitang. Miss, do you want to go in and hear what's going on?"
