Abandoned by the best children? I just take out the space
Chapter 1697 Greed for life and fear of death
"I would like to, but Prince Rong doesn't want to be inferior to others, so I can only beat around the bush to get his help." Wen Baicao listened to Wan Shufang's bold words and rolled his eyes at her.
Wan Shufang touched her nose unconsciously, but her expression did not show much emotion: "It seems that Prince Rong is very important to you, but unfortunately he is very ambitious and wants to establish a new dynasty and become the emperor. I'm afraid you can only use him secretly."
After saying this, Wan Shufang stroked her chin and thought. The more she thought about it, the more she felt that this was the case: "He doesn't know you exist, but because of your arrangement, he has to do some things according to your plan. But everything can't be too absolute, not to mention that there is a smart person next to him."
"You are also very wary of this, so you act even more cautiously, not daring to let the people around Prince Rong notice anything."
"And it was precisely because you were so vigilant that you gave Prince Rong the opportunity to break free and take advantage of you."
Wan Shufang guessed boldly, and the more she guessed, the more she felt that Prince Rong had grown rapidly with the help of Liu Yaoyao, to the point that Wen Baicao could no longer easily control him.
"Liu Yaoyao is indeed quite smart." Wen Baicao straightforwardly admitted Wan Shufang's guess, "But no matter how smart she is, she can't escape my control, because she will only hate Chang Xuewei, and I am hiding behind Chang Xuewei."
Hearing his confident words, Wan Shufang suddenly didn't know what to say.
She rubbed her forehead with her hand and said earnestly, "I understand what you mean, but things related to him cannot be finalized, otherwise, in the end, it will only be shooting itself in the foot."
"You suspect that the two of them have already guessed my existence." When Wen Baicao heard Wan Shufang's words, his thoughts turned, and he didn't know what he was thinking about, and his face gradually became ugly.
Wan Shufang shook her head and sighed: "I don't have this guess, but I think Liu Yaoyao will not miss you as the mastermind behind the scenes."
Wen Baicao raised her eyebrows slightly, then gritted her teeth, her emotions seemed to be out of control: "Liu Yaoyao will only trace it back to Chang Xuewei, and will never trace it back to me. Wan Shufang, stop exaggerating here."
He finished his words in one breath, staring at Wan Shufang coldly, as if waiting for her to change her words.
Wan Shufang saw that he was not in a good mood, and her heart was beating wildly, but she remained calm and said, "The New Heaven Society has indeed hidden you very well. Even Chang Xuewei doesn't know you exist."
"But you overlooked one thing. That is, you appeared in front of everyone two months ago, and you were able to get along with the three princes."
"If a businessman can do this, it will definitely attract attention from all sides."
"As the most trusted aide to Prince Rong, Liu Yaoyao will never miss any news related to you."
"Add to that Xia Feng's high-profile move, do you think Liu Yaoyao really can't find out anything related to you?"
Wan Shufang deliberately dragged out the last word when she said it. When Wen Baicao frowned and seemed to be thinking about something, she added, "Chang Xuewei is confused by the situation and has ignored you. But bystanders can see things more clearly!"
"If someone tells Chang Xuewei something about you at this time, what do you think she will do?"
When Wen Baicao thought about what might happen through Wan Shufang's words, his heart felt as if a heavy weight was pressing down on it, making him very uncomfortable.
"The fact that Chang Xuewei rashly used the Phoenix Gu is enough to arouse vigilance." Wan Shufang kept her eyes on Wen Baicao, not missing the slightest change on his face. "Manager Wen, there is always a loophole in a hundred precautions. You may end up shooting birds all day, only to be pecked in the eye by a bird."
"This is all just your guess." Seeing that Wen Baicao's face was not very good, Kong Xuande's face turned pale.
He has cooperated with Wen Baicao. If Wen Baicao's ability and identity were known to many people, the huge benefits he envisioned would probably be in vain.
He didn't want to see this happen, so he quickly refuted Wan Shufang.
But after the refutation, he felt uncomfortable again and couldn't help staring at Wen Baicao, hoping that he could speak to calm his anxious heart.
"Wan Shufang's guess makes some sense. We can't ignore her words and we have to consider it carefully." Wen Baicao is not a self-righteous person. He is very good at introspection.
Wan Shufang's words were like thunder hitting his head, waking him up instantly.
He had to reflect on himself, and then emphasized: "Brother Kong, I have been very smooth sailing recently. Perhaps it is because it is too smooth that I overlooked the fact that chess pieces also have rebellious hearts."
When Kong Xuande heard this, he looked at him up and down, and asked with concern: "Then how are you going to remedy it? What should I do?"
Wen Baicao frowned, glanced at Wan Shufang from the corner of his eyes, and said gently: "I still think that Wan Shufang's presence will keep us safe."
Hearing that he was still planning to attack her, Wan Shufang smiled helplessly: "Do you trust me so much? Or do you think that Prince Rong's people will let me go? But I have offended Liu Yaoyao before, and she would rather I die, so how could she let me live?"
Wen Baicao lowered his eyes slightly and said with certainty: "That's not necessarily true."
Wan Shufang saw through his thoughts at a glance, anger flashed across her face, but her voice was inaudible: "You are not trying to say that Liu Yaoyao wants to help Prince Rong get the Phoenix Gu."
"Who can resist the temptation of immortality?" Wen Baicao asked back.
Wan Shufang thought for a moment and said, "Liu Yaoyao doesn't believe it, and she has the ability to convince Prince Rong."
"As far as I know, Liu Yaoyao and Prince Rong have had a rift for a long time." Wen Baicao stopped Wan Shufang with just one sentence.
"If the people outside really have something to do with them, how does Shopkeeper Wen plan to save himself?" Wan Shufang was not going to argue with Wen Baicao and asked for a solution straightforwardly.
Wen Baicao was stumped by the question and didn't say anything for a long time.
Wan Shufang waited for a while but didn't hear anything from him, and suddenly she had bad thoughts in her mind.
She locked her eyes on Wen Baicao, but could not see any clues, so she asked tentatively: "Have you arranged someone by the side of Prince Rong? Has he gained Prince Rong's trust?"
"I can go out and meet them directly." Wen Baicao was like a cat whose tail was stepped on, and all the hair on her body stood up.
When Wan Shufang heard this, she knew that things were going to get worse. Her heart was in her throat. "I don't want to take any risks."
She was afraid that Wen Baicao would take her with her, and added: "Liu Yaoyao hates me, and Chang Xuewei is also outside. If the two of them put aside their past grudges and deal with me, they will never let me survive. So I have to think about this matter carefully and not be impulsive."
Wen Baicao understood what she meant and pretended to be confused, "When did you become so afraid of death?"
Wan Shufang snorted coldly: "If you were faced with such a situation, would you be able to face them bravely and fearlessly?"
