Wan Shufang was stunned. The woman actually handed the prescription to her. The hook she handed over was too tempting.

If she had not suspected the little maid, wouldn't she have thought that getting the prescription was a great achievement, and then she would have to find a way to leave Prince Rong's Mansion.

Although she thought so in her mind, Wan Shufang was not sure whether Liu Yaoyao and the woman were planning this.

She didn't dare to act rashly, lest she ruin the current situation.

"Do you trust me so much?" Wan Shufang took the prescription with a solemn look on her face.

The smile on the woman's face was as gentle as a spring breeze, which softened people's hearts. "Knowing that they are doing bad things and this will bring Yaoyao to eternal damnation, how can I just sit back and do nothing?"

"Unfortunately, I am just an ordinary person with no one to turn to. You just happened to be trapped in Prince Rong's Mansion and you don't get along with Yaoyao. After thinking about it, I naturally think that you are a good person and am willing to trust you."

The woman's tone was calm, but her eyes were filled with sadness.

She knew that what she was doing was a betrayal to Liu Yaoyao. If Liu Yaoyao knew about this, she would definitely be in pain and might even become estranged from her.

But she had been with Liu Yaoyao for several years and already knew how much Liu Yaoyao hated what she had done.

However, there are people behind Liu Yaoyao who are trying to control her, so that even if she hates what she does, she has to continue doing it.

The woman treated Liu Yaoyao as her own sister, felt very sorry for her situation, and kept trying to find a way to solve her problem.

She was in poor health and fell ill several times.

Every time she fell ill, she would drag Liu Yaoyao down with her, so this time when she was seriously ill, she wanted to just die.

Wan Shufang rescued her, and Liu Yaoyao had complicated feelings towards her. The woman thought this would be an opportunity, and kept thinking about contacting Wan Shufang.

She met Wan Shufang yesterday and didn't want to continue the conversation after chatting with her for a few minutes, also because their conversation involved Liu Yaoyao.

The woman didn't want to be hated by Liu Yaoyao, so she rethought some of her ideas, changed her plans, and brought Liu Yaoyao here today.

Her original intention was to use this method to make Wan Shufang believe that Liu Yaoyao approved of her decision. However, she never expected that Liu Yaoyao had such a serious gap with Wan Shufang and was unwilling to bow her head at all.

"Madam General, you are trapped here and you don't know what's happening outside, right?"

"Emperor Dajing not only angrily rebuked the entire court for being disrespectful in keeping vigil for the empress, but also used this as an excuse to raid many people's homes."

"Prince Rong fell ill in the General's Mansion because he was aware of the Emperor's many calculations in this matter. In order not to be involved and implicate the people in Prince Rong's Mansion, he deliberately found a way to stay in the General's Mansion and made many imperial doctors believe that he was seriously ill."

"Let's not talk about whether he is seriously ill or not. The fact that he fell ill in the General's Mansion is enough to make some members of the royal family focus on the General's Mansion."

"It just so happens that the emperor is looking for an excuse to eliminate dissidents at this time. If he notices the matter of Prince Rong, he will definitely use it as an excuse to deal with your husband."

"I heard that your husband was originally from the Anyang Marquisate, but he was unwilling to acknowledge his ancestral roots. The people of the Anyang Marquisate are only interested in profit. If he is targeted by the emperor, the Anyang Marquisate will definitely join forces with others to add insult to injury."

There was a layer of sadness between the woman's brows, as if Chen Changli's subsequent experience made her very worried.

For this reason, she would rather betray Liu Yaoyao and tell Wan Shufang about it.

"Chen Changli is just one person. He and the crown prince are feared by the emperor. I don't think anyone in Luoyang will help him, so he will definitely not escape this time."

"And I gave you this prescription in the hope that you could figure out what kind of medicine it would make, and then use it to threaten Prince Rong to help Chen Changli avoid this crisis."

Wan Shufang had always been suspicious of the woman's purpose. After listening to her series of words, her thoughts raced, and she wanted to sort out everything based on what the woman said.

Wan Shufang was caught off guard as she didn't expect the woman to directly reveal her purpose.

"You are..." Wan Shufang pursed her lips and suddenly sighed, "It seems that I misunderstood you yesterday."

After she finished speaking, she read the prescription and soon her expression suddenly turned ugly.

With her fingers tightly grasping the paper, Wan Shufang raised her head and stared at the woman coldly.

"This prescription is extremely important to Prince Rong. How did you get it?"

The content recorded on this prescription is clearly an upgraded version of "Opium". Even the most determined person will not be able to get rid of it after taking it for a period of time, and will then obey human orders like a dog.

Wan Shufang had to suspect that the poison used by Liu Yaoyao and others to control people was this "Ofurong", and "Ofurong" was also known as "Fushou Paste" and could be smoked as opium.

She thought carefully about the noble ladies and dignitaries she had come into contact with, and did not find any traces of smoke on them.

But she didn't dare to relax, because the upgraded version of 'Ofurong' was more effective. If someone took it accidentally, they would probably become a walking corpse in less than half a month, numbly following orders.

When Wan Shufang thought that Luoyang City would soon be attacked by a group of zombies, her heart rose to her throat and her face looked uglier than ever.

However, it was precisely when she discovered that the prescription was for "opium" that Wan Shufang became more suspicious of the woman.

This is because this is a very good medicine for controlling people. Prince Rong is bent on rebellion. He has the prescription, so why doesn't he try to hide it and not let anyone have access to it?

Although the woman had a good relationship with Liu Yaoyao, she behaved like a weak woman. No matter how unguarded Prince Rong was, he would not let her steal the prescription easily.

"I have my own way." When the woman saw Wan Shufang's serious expression, she knew that she had figured out the effect of the prescription. Her heart tightened slightly, but she remained expressionless.

"Wan Shufang, you are an excellent doctor, you must know what this prescription is, right? Although I can't guess its effect, I know that it is not only important to Yaoyao and Prince Rong, but also to you, so I have shown my sincerity, I hope you can believe me."

The woman didn't say anything else, just that she showed her sincerity and asked Wan Shufang to trust her.

Wan Shufang sighed: "Your sincerity is too great, I can't bear it."

"You can try to contact your husband. I believe he can help you. Of course, if you can't contact him, I can help you." The woman's tone was calm, as if she didn't care at all about Wan Shufang's suspicion of her.

"I have a way to contact him, and I will give you an answer tomorrow at the latest." When Wan Shufang heard her say this, she felt like the dust had settled in her heart, and she immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

The woman smiled faintly when she heard this: "Are you beginning to believe me? Then are you willing to help me do something?"
