"Crown Princess? Brother, you mean...?"

Gao Yufei calmed down immediately and looked at Gao Junning with a puzzled expression.

"Isn't the Crown Prince's love for his Crown Princess unbreakable? If something happens to the Crown Princess, he will surely be in pain, perhaps even more so than if something happened to him."

Gao Junning grinned mischievously.

Gao Yufei frowned. "But the Crown Princess and the Crown Prince are husband and wife. If you harm the Crown Princess, then the Crown Prince and his family will definitely cause trouble for us. In that case, Father will still not allow it."

“We are not kidnapping or hiring people to harm her or touch her. They have ruined your reputation, and we can ruin hers in the same way.”

Isn't she the Crown Princess of Liang? My brother's men have investigated; the Crown Princess knows medicine and owns several pharmacies and clinics in the capital. If something happens to one of those pharmacies...

Gao Junning gave Gao Yufei a knowing look, and she instantly understood what he meant.

"Brother, are you sure you can do this? They've hurt me so badly. If I can get revenge, I'll never be so despondent again!"

Gao Yufei asked excitedly.

"Eight or nine out of ten."

Gao Junning smiled confidently.

This time, he would never be as careless as when he used the curse on Xiao Ye.

They ruined her sister's reputation, and this is a debt of revenge that must be taken no matter what.

Otherwise, if I return to the Northern Desert and my mother finds out about this, she will blame me.

This time, Gao Junning did not immediately make a move against Su Liluo's pharmacy, but instead secretly observed it for a long time.

He learned that Su Liluo's pharmacy was the most reputable and had an excellent reputation in the capital, because the pharmacy offered various discounts on medicines for the poor.

She would even give free medical treatment to poor people who couldn't afford it, and they would work for her to pay for their medical care.

Therefore, Su Liluo had an excellent reputation, and the people regarded her as a living Bodhisattva.

It seems that it would be necessary to pay a heavy price to ruin the reputation of such a person.

Gao Junning sat in the teahouse, looking at the pharmacies coming and going on the street across the street, then at the small black bottle in his hand, and hesitated for a while before making up his mind.

The poison in his hand was a colorless and odorless deadly poison; just a drop would render any medicine ineffective.

This matter can only succeed, it cannot fail. If it is ultimately exposed that he, a Northern Desert man, murdered the people of Liang, then it will become a matter between the two countries.

He observed for a long time and finally discovered that a person named Yilan was different from the others in the pharmacy.

His keen intuition told him that this person was also after Su Liluo, and definitely not with good intentions.

So he sat in the teahouse for a long time until it was almost dark. When he saw Yilan come out of the pharmacy looking tired, he left the teahouse and followed her.

"who?"

After walking for a while, at the entrance of a deserted alley, Yi Lan suddenly spoke up alertly.

“Miss, I meant no offense, I just have something to discuss.”

When Gao Junning realized he had been discovered, he immediately stepped out from the shadows and smiled gently.

Yi Lan turned around and looked at Gao Junning, only to see that he was an unfamiliar man.

She frowned slightly: "What do you want to talk to me about?"

“Talk about what you want.”

"What I want?"

Yi Lan exclaimed in surprise, then gave Gao Junning a few more wary glances.

How long has this man been observing me?

Did he know his purpose?

She was already being very careful, so how could she still be targeted?

"Well, you've been working for free at the Crown Princess's pharmacy for so long. If you haven't gotten what you want, I can help you."

Gao Junning nodded calmly.

"You'll help me? What makes you think you can help me? Do you even know what I want?"

Yi Lan asked tentatively.

"Although I don't know what you want, I know that what you want is definitely the Crown Princess. If I can drag the Crown Princess into this mess and then hand her over to you, wouldn't you be able to get what you want?"

"You think you can drag the Crown Princess down with you? Who are you to presume to touch the Crown Princess of the Great Liang?"

Yi Lan looked at Gao Junning with obvious disbelief.

But then, Gao Junning suddenly took out the small black bottle from his pocket and handed it to Yi Lan.

He smiled faintly and said, "As long as you put this medicine into the medicinal herbs in the pharmacy that are meant to save lives, causing deaths in the pharmacy, then the Crown Princess will naturally be unable to escape responsibility."

The public outrage will definitely bring her down. Even if she is the Crown Princess, if she causes too many deaths, the Emperor won't show her any favoritism.

"You want me to poison him?"

Yi Lan looked at Gao Junning with amusement.

If she wanted to poison Su Liluo, she wouldn't need his help; she could do it herself.

The reason she didn't poison him was because if she did, Su Liluo would definitely suspect her first, and they would immediately arrest and interrogate her.

She came out alone, without any powerful backing, so she couldn't take such a risk.

Do you think I'm stupid?

Yi Lan looked at Gao Junning with a mocking expression.

"Girl, I know you're worried about getting arrested, but don't worry, I'll protect you. Once you've put the poison in, you can come to me, and I'll have someone protect you."

Gao Junning guessed Yi Lan's concerns and slowly explained.

"No, if I hide, I won't be able to get what I want."

Yi Lan refused outright.

What she wanted was to gain Su Liluo's trust first, and then get close to her. If she ran away like this, how could she get close to Su Liluo again?

"Is what you want the Crown Princess? If so, I can guarantee that I will send the Crown Princess to you for you to do as you please."

"But why should I believe you? What ability do you have to bring the Crown Princess to me?"

Yi Lan still looked at Gao Junning with disbelief.

"As long as I am the son of the Regent of the Northern Desert, and I drag the Crown Princess into this mess, since her pharmacy has killed so many people, the Emperor of Liang will definitely not spare her life."

"When she's imprisoned or beheaded, I have enough men to abduct the Crown Princess. Once she's in my hands, she'll be completely at my mercy."

Gao Junning said confidently, raising his chin.

This was his plan from the beginning: as long as Su Liluo committed an unforgivable crime, the Emperor of Liang would inevitably take her life under pressure from the people.

If I were to abduct her at this point, no one would be willing to save her life.

Then the Crown Princess would be like a fish on a chopping board, at his mercy to take revenge.
