Tarrou nodded and shook his head: "I had this idea before, but when I knew you were here, I knew that the decision of the Eighth Prince and I would not succeed."

Sighing slightly, Tarrou calmed down and said in a gentle tone, "But I have a question. Your relationship with the Eighth Prince is so strained. Why didn't Chen Changli come to rescue you?"

Wan Shufang frowned. She was very concerned about this issue. After all, Taru wanted immortality, so he must be coveting the Phoenix Gu on Chen Changli.

"Chen Changli is in Yongzhou City." Xia Feng suddenly said, "There is no way he can come here. Isn't that why you targeted Wan Shufang?"

"Or did Yang Caiwei fail to explain the couple's situation to you clearly when she mentioned Wan Shufang to you?"

When Xia Feng said this, she locked her eyes with Taru in a rather subtle way, then sighed and said, "I think Yang Caiwei has remembered your weakness, and she has started to plot against you."

She knew from the beginning that the four major families were not united and that their internal struggles were fierce, so after weighing the pros and cons, she chose the weaker Yang Caiwei, but she didn't expect to be slapped in the face.

Taru was chosen by the Eighth Prince, and Xia Feng also has capable people in his hands.

She specially asked someone to check the situation and found out that Tarrou had been besieged by the other three families because of his age.

If he died, the Baiyi tribe would be swallowed up by the three major families.

Taru himself was very clear about this, so when faced with the olive branch thrown by the Eighth Prince, even if he wanted to resist, he had to bow his head for the sake of his people.

Xia Feng thought that as long as she grasped this point, Taru would become the sharpest knife in her hand. She never expected that Yang Caiwei would do something bad in secret.

She felt uncomfortable and uneasy, so whenever she had the chance she would do everything she could to sow discord.

Ye Yun saw through her thoughts at a glance. Although he couldn't guess what she was thinking and planning, he was happy to cooperate with her at this time.

"The person that my prince chose before was Yang Caiwei, but unfortunately this woman was too cunning, and my prince was almost tricked by her."

"To prevent Yang Caiwei from continuing to interfere, I chose you. The poison you need was also researched by Wan Shufang."

Ye Yun emphasized the tone of his last sentence and quickly glanced at Wan Shufang's expression.

Seeing that she looked calm and didn't seem to take Taru's threat seriously, Ye Yun's gaze slowly fell on the Eighth Prince.

The Eighth Prince brought Wan Shufang here probably because he wanted to use her identity to gain more bargaining chips for himself so that Taru could act more decisively. Unexpectedly, Taru's real target was Wan Shufang.

All kinds of complicated thoughts were turning in his mind. Ye Yun kept weighing the pros and cons, and finally felt that Wan Shufang could bring them more benefits.

Moreover, if Tarrou takes Wan Shufang away, Xia Feng will no longer have anyone to restrain her, and her methods and courage will probably become even greater.

The Eighth Prince had just abandoned Yongzhou City and his reputation had been damaged. If Xia Feng attacked him secretly, how could he stay safely in Wuling Mountain?

After Ye Yun's mind turned over and over again, he had a preference in his heart.

He continued, "We used this poison to gain your trust. We also wanted to reach an agreement with you and then lend you a helping hand. After all, the Baiyi tribe has weakened, while the other three tribes are thriving. You must be jealous!"

Before Taru could sneer and refute, Ye Yun sighed again: "Although you are jealous, you are more worried about the future of your descendants. So when faced with the Eighth Prince's request, you did consider it, but it was not as good as the olive branch thrown by Yang Caiwei."

"If I'm not mistaken, you must have found out that Yang Caiwei and Kong Xuande had contact, and then discovered that Ning Guzhou had contact with the Ninth Prince. In order to prevent the Baiyi tribe from becoming a pawn abandoned by the three tribes, you wanted to do both."

"After all, your grandsons are not as good as you. If you had lived forever, you would not only be able to protect them, but you would also be able to do whatever you can to scheme against the other three tribes and dominate Bashu yourself."

Ye Yun said this in one breath, and his expression became much colder.

Faced with such behavior from Tarrou, if it had been before, he and the Eighth Prince would definitely look down on it and teach him a lesson, making him regret it.

But the current situation is not optimistic, especially for the Eighth Prince. No matter how angry Ye Yun is, he has to endure it for the Eighth Prince.

"I have to say that your plan is very good, but the premise is that immortality is real. If it is a lie, what you did today will be a joke."

"Taru, you have to think about it carefully." Ye Yun emphasized his tone, glanced at the Eighth Prince, and then set his sights on Wan Shufang, "He is the chief of the Baiyi tribe, and has a close relationship with Yang Caiwei."

"If you leave because of the benefits he offers, you will directly face Yang Caiwei."

"Wan Shufang, although the Eighth Prince and I are capricious and sometimes threaten you, we will not hurt you. So I hope you can think carefully about what is important and what is not, and don't fall for others' tricks."

Although Ye Yun wanted to pull Wan Shufang aside and explain the facts to her so that she could help the Eighth Prince as she did before, Wan Shufang's words were already in front of him, and if he asked her to do so, it would only make her angry and embarrassed.

To this end, he only explained part of the matter and then handed the initiative to Wan Shufang.

Wan Shufang was pondering the current situation, and wanted to analyze the possible plots of Taru and Yang Caiwei against her through the conversation between Xia Feng and Taru.

As soon as Ye Yun said this, she instantly knew what he was planning.

After looking at him inexplicably, Wan Shufang quickly looked at Taru.

Seeing that his eyes were always on her, Wan Shufang knew that he had changed his mind again and was in a bad mood.

What has she become? A chess piece that can be discarded at any time?

Although Wan Shufang had a clear understanding of her own position, she felt very uncomfortable when she really faced it at this moment. However, she changed her mind and thought that it was very likely that Taru was very important to the Eighth Prince.

If the two of them fail to reach a cooperation, the Eighth Prince will be attacked from both sides.

Wan Shufang would be very happy to see the Eighth Prince suffer a great loss, but the four major families were very hostile to the Han people, and she was Chen Changli's wife.

Yang Caiwei obviously had some plans. If anything happened to the Eighth Prince, she would be in trouble if she fell into the hands of the four major families.

All kinds of thoughts were turning around, and Wan Shufang's heart was alarmed, but she remained calm and said, "Senior Taru, I actually don't like researching poisons. The reason I researched so much this time was because of the Eighth Prince's request."

"But the relationship between me and the Eighth Prince is indeed not good. It is undoubtedly a pipe dream for you to use him to lead me."

Tarrou suppressed his anger and asked patiently, "What do you want?"

"I want your four major families to abandon the iron mine." Wan Shufang's tone was firm and unyielding.

Tarrou's pupils shrank in shock, and he sneered: "The iron ore belongs to our four major families. How could we give it up just because of your words?"

Wan Shufang's eyes flickered, and she deliberately raised her voice: "Really? But as far as I know, the one guarding the iron mine now is the Ninth Prince."
