Carefully raising her eyes to observe the Crown Princess, she saw that her eyes were red and swollen, as if she was so sad that her eyes were swollen from crying. Wan Shufang suddenly felt a headache.

She rubbed her head with her hand, and then tried her best to calm her tone and said, "Lord Cheng'en would never do such a thing, and I also think that he really loves you and Miss Yun."

"If he wasn't the queen, he would definitely find a way to take revenge on her for you sisters."

Wan Shufang looked extremely serious when she said this, and she stretched out her hand to hold the Crown Princess's, giving her the strength to believe in Duke Cheng'en.

"Crown Princess, Lord Cheng'en weighed the pros and cons before because some things were forced upon him, but his love for you sisters has never changed, otherwise he would not have tried to find a way to investigate the Gu worm."

"Is he tracking down the poisonous insect because of me?" The Crown Princess was eager for a positive answer.

Wan Shufang nodded seriously: "He must be doing this for you, otherwise why would he, as the Duke of Cheng'en, meddle in other people's business? You have to know that this matter is under the charge of Lord Ye."

"I've been with Mr. Ye before. He seems easy to talk to, but he's actually very arrogant."

"He discovered this matter. If he can handle it well by himself, he will surely be valued by His Majesty. Why would he share the benefits of this matter with Duke Cheng'en?"

As soon as Wan Shufang finished speaking, the Crown Princess also reacted. She was stunned for a moment, then she forced a smile and said, "Your words make sense. I can listen to them and naturally won't let my imagination run wild anymore."

There was clearly something else behind her words, Wan Shufang thought to herself, and she unconsciously tightened her grip on the Crown Princess' hand.

The Crown Princess felt something and immediately sighed, "I didn't want to doubt Dad, but Haitang died so decisively and Dad showed up at such a coincidence, so I suspected that he did this to stop me."

"My sister said that about my father, so I asked her to apologize to him and I bowed to him. In fact, I just wanted my father to pity me, and then I would find a way to get some people from him."

"Wan Shufang, after what happened with Liu Yaoyao, I realized that I am very short of people and I'm in urgent need of people who can work for me."

Having said this, the Crown Princess held Wan Shufang's hand and looked at her with burning eyes, with anticipation in the depths of her eyes.

"My father is a very cautious person and behaves properly. He won't let anyone find fault with him."

"Logically, I would not bow to him. After all, he has been leaning towards the Queen recently. But Haitang's death frightened me. I am very worried that the people around me have been infiltrated."

"Since you said that Dad would not do this and he still loves me as much as before, I naturally believe you."

"But in this case, I won't be able to get some people from my father, so I hope you can do me a favor."

The Crown Princess stopped talking here because she believed that Wan Shufang could understand what she said.

Duke Cheng'en couldn't provide her with some manpower, but Chen Changli could.

The Crown Princess believed that Chen Changli must have many capable people under his command. As long as she could get one or two of them, she could do some things with ease.

"Didn't His Royal Highness leave some people for you?" Wan Shufang understood immediately, but didn't the Crown Princess say before that His Royal Highness gave her a token? That token could command the people left behind by His Royal Highness.

Wan Shufang felt that those who were valued by the prince were very talented, and if the crown princess could arrange them reasonably, she would have no need to worry about failing in her own affairs.

"The prince did leave a lot of people for me, but they are all staying in the palace and can't leave in the short term." The princess looked a little depressed, "And even if I have the ability to arrange for them to leave the palace, it will attract some people's attention."

"In order to avoid alerting the enemy, I can only ask you for help. Of course, if you can't do anything else, I can only try to arrange it for them."

Wan Shufang hesitated for a moment, but in order to help the Crown Princess, she said, "I need to discuss this matter with Chen Changli. If he can spare some people, I will let them come to you."

When the Crown Princess heard this, she immediately said, "There is no time to lose. Let's go to the General's Mansion right now."

The Crown Princess was very anxious, as if she had something important to tell him which she would not reveal until she met Chen Changli.

Wan Shufang then realized that the Crown Princess might really have that thought, but she also had something to say to Chen Changli.

Wan Shufang did not waste any time and took the Crown Princess back to the General's Mansion. However, Chen Changli was not at home at this time. Instead, he received the news and came to the royal manor again.

He was wearing a nightgown and quickly entered the royal manor with the help of the moonlight. It didn't take long before he locked Liu Yaoyao and Yanran in a remote courtyard.

There were many people guarding the yard, so Chen Changli could only look around and choose an ideal location to hide himself.

He originally thought that even if these people were guarding here, they would be dispatched after a certain period of time. Unexpectedly, these people did not make any movement until dawn.

Chen Changli had to conclude that his guess was wrong. Just as he was about to leave, the door to the yard was opened.

Liu Yaoyao walked out with an indifferent face. She breathed in the fresh air outside, feeling indignant and furious.

It was because those prestigious doctors were very stubborn and were not willing to obey her at all.

In order to control these doctors, Liu Yaoyao could only let Yanran put a Gu on them, but she didn't expect that one of these doctors knew about Gu worms and had one on his body, so he easily controlled Yanran's Gu worm.

Liu Yaoyao had never encountered such a thing before. She was frightened at first, but soon her attention was attracted by this person.

She tortured him with all means, hoping that he would surrender to her and work for her. She never expected that he was from a family of imperial physicians and was loyal to the royal family. He was not willing to do anything treasonous for Liu Yaoyao, who looked like a traitor.

Liu Yaoyao was so angry that she wanted to kill him.

But no matter how talented Yanran was, she couldn't control the poisonous insect. The doctor relied on his own ability to refine a poisonous insect.

No matter how much Liu Yaoyao hated him, she couldn't help but admire him.

"Sister Yaoyao, that guy is really powerful. No matter what kind of poison I use, he has a way to solve it." At this time Yanran also came out. She jumped to Liu Yaoyao's side and said with surprise.

She can control poisonous insects because she has lived in Nanzhao since she was a child and has dealt with many poisonous insects. In addition, her blood is poisonous, which makes her immune to all poisons.

But the old doctor was not like that. Yanran was curious and admired him, and wanted to win him over for Liu Yaoyao. However, no matter how hard she tried, the old doctor just gritted his teeth and refused to give in.

"He is indeed a talent. If the Lord knew of his existence, he would definitely be happy. But unfortunately, his temper is too stubborn. We must temper him, otherwise he will bite the Lord."
