This is your world

Some news cannot be hidden.

Although the government has tried its best to conceal it, a lot of gossip has spread.

As time goes by, there are more and more speculations.

Especially since the captain had not shown up for many days and his whereabouts were unknown, more and more people were ready to move and could not sit still.

But when many people looked for the Zhou Mansion, they could only see the Zhou Mansion behind closed doors with no visitors. There are also three circles of guards outside the gate of Zhou Mansion and three circles inside.

Stand ready.

strict!

Gives people a sense of oppressive tension.

problem occurs!

Although they didn’t know what happened, many people were vaguely aware that something big must have happened!

Many people began to inquire through various methods, trying to learn a little bit of the truth.

The Zhou family is not just the Zhou family.

Over the years, Zhou Qin has firmly secured his position as the commander-in-chief of the county, and relying on the Zhou family's many years of hard work, he has developed a network of contacts in the county.

This network is inseparable, and if you lose it, you will lose everything.

Therefore, when something happened to the Zhou family, countless people immediately became nervous.

Especially after some people speculated that something might have happened to Zhou Qin, many people had already begun to prepare for a retreat...

In fact, many people were already mentally prepared when the prefect parachuted into the county.

After the former prefect retired, he thought that Zhou Qin, as the captain, could take a step closer. Unexpectedly, as soon as the imperial court transferred him, a prefect parachuted directly from the capital, blocking Zhou Qin's promotion plan.

Many people know what this means.

The purpose of this move by the imperial court was to prevent the Zhou and Qin families from becoming dominant, and to prevent the Zhou family from becoming the actual power holders of the county and city.

As the county head of Nanzhou, Chaoyang County is also the economic center of Nanzhou and has a top priority.

And this airborne prefect serves as the spokesperson of the imperial court, representing the power of the imperial court and competing with the local clans in Chaoyang County.

Therefore, as soon as the prefect arrived in the county, he immediately began to seize power from Zhou and Qin. Standing behind him were people from the imperial court. Even though Zhou Qin didn't take the new governor seriously, he had to be wary of the power behind him.

Therefore, many people are aware of it. Sooner or later there will be a conflict between the prefect and the captain, and sooner or later there will be a day when they can see each other.

How it will end is unknown.

But many people have already begun to prepare a way out behind the scenes.

Of course, most of the officials and forces in the county and city sided with Zhou and Qin, maintaining the network of interests that originally belonged to them.

But... no one wants to compete with the imperial court.

Therefore, when the major families heard the news, they began to prepare backup plans.

No matter what the outcome is between the prefect and the captain... to them, it doesn't matter as long as it doesn't harm their interests.

…

County town, prefect's mansion.

Inner courtyard, inside the room.

Chen Yannan stood beside the bed in the room, looking slightly anxious. Following him was a beautiful woman, who was his wife.

Both of their eyes were focused on the bed.

Lying on the bed was a little girl, their daughter Yaoyao.

At this time, Li Beifeng beside the bed slowly closed his needles.

He helped the little girl cover herself with clothes, got up and came behind the screen.

Chen Yannan on the side quickly followed up: "Little miracle doctor Li, Yao'er..."

"My body has recovered very well and there is nothing serious anymore!"

Li Beifeng shook his head: "She was not seriously poisoned. She was discovered in time, and she has been recovering well during this period. She is recovering well. There will be no sequelae..."

Hearing this, Chen Yannan finally breathed a deep sigh of relief.

Yao'er has always been the most worrying point in his heart. Now that he heard that Yao'er was finally fine, he was completely relieved.

"Very good!"

Chen Yannan looked at him with excitement: "Thank you so much, little miracle doctor Li..."

"It's just a little effort, Mr. Chen doesn't have to do this..."

Li Beifeng shook his head and glanced at him: "Mr. Chen... how about I take a step to speak?"

Chen Yannan was startled and understood something.

"good!"

"..."

Another room.

The servants brought a table of good wine and food, and Li Beifeng and Chen Yannan sat down opposite each other.

Chen Yannan stood up and poured a glass of wine for Li Beifeng, then raised the glass and said with gratitude: "No matter what, I want to thank you, Little Miracle Doctor Li... If it weren't for Little Miracle Doctor Li who saved Yao'er over and over again, the consequences would be disastrous. …”

"I, Chen, have remembered this kindness. If Dr. Li comes in handy in the future, Chen will definitely repay this kindness..."

Chen Yannan was truly grateful to Li Beifeng.

The appearance of this little miracle doctor Li in front of him was like a gift from heaven.

He has saved Yao'er's life many times. This great kindness cannot be repaid.

"Master Chen is serious..."

Li Beifeng waved his hand, "Actually, I should also thank Mr. Chen. If it weren't for Mr. Chen, I might not have been able to escape so easily this time..."

A few days ago, Li Beifeng was surrounded by heavy troops of Zhou and Qin at the foot of the western suburbs. At that time, Chen Yannan arrived and tried his best to stop Zhou Qin. Although he could not stop Zhou Qin who was determined to go his own way, he also bought Li Beifeng a lot of time.

Chen Yannan had a guilty look on his face: "Speaking of this, in fact, I haven't been able to help Little Miracle Doctor Li much. On the contrary, the identity of Little Miracle Doctor Li really surprised me!"

He looked at Li Beifeng with surprise in his eyes.

The protector of Qin Tiansi...

This identity was enough to surprise him.

Although in terms of status, the dignified prefect of the county and city is higher than the guardian of Qin Tiansi.

But after all, Qin Tiansi is a special being with great power. Even the officials in the capital and court must be wary of him.

Therefore, as the protector of Qin Tiansi, Li Beifeng represents not only Qin Tiansi, but also the... imperial power represented behind Qin Tiansi!

It is precisely for this reason that Qin Tiansi's status is so special.

"Speaking of which, it's probably a coincidence!"

Li Beifeng shook his head: "I became the protector of Qin Tiansi, probably because of my luck, it's not worth mentioning..."

He didn't explain much, and Chen Yannan didn't ask any more questions.

There were indeed many secrets about Little Miracle Doctor Li, but Chen Yannan did not delve into them.

Little Miracle Doctor Li is his benefactor, that's enough.

As for the others, although he was curious, he would not take the initiative to explore.

"Master Chen, that Zhou Qin..."

Li Beifeng finally got down to business.

Chen Yannan's eyes also condensed. He knew that Li Beifeng came today. In addition to checking Yao'er's body, the most important thing was this matter.

"Zhou Qin, he is too wanton and reckless!"

Chen Yannan's voice was slightly gloomy: "He actually used the troops and horses of the county and city arbitrarily for his own selfish interests... This is a taboo. I have reported this matter to the court, and I believe there will be a result soon."

"Then he..."

Li Beifeng's eyes were meaningful: "What's the end?"

Seemingly sensing Li Beifeng's concern, Chen Yannan paused for a moment and sighed slightly.

"Zhou Qin has been running the county for many years. It will be difficult to completely uproot him and the strength behind him... However, this time, it is enough for him to drink a pot!"

A trace of anger appeared on Chen Yannan's face: "Since I came to the county, he has been against me everywhere, and he has violated me many times behind my back..."

"Speaking of which, I have to thank you even more, Little Miracle Doctor Li, for what happened this time!"

Chen Yannan looked at Li Beifeng: "We were able to take down Zhou Qin this time, thanks to the help of Little Miracle Doctor Li and the experts from Qin Tiansi. Although we can't completely defeat him this time,... it's enough!"

"How can the court tolerate him if he mobilizes soldiers and horses in the county and city at will? I'm afraid it won't be his turn to make the final decision on the mobilization of troops and horses in this county and Nanzhou in the future!"

Chen Yannan did not continue speaking, but Li Beifeng already understood!

Zhou Qin was just a captain, so why did he dare to compete with the prefect sent by the imperial court?

In addition to the power he has worked so hard for so many years, more importantly, he has military power in his hands!

As the captain of Chaoyang County, Zhou Qin not only controlled the city defense and military affairs near the county seat, he even had great say in the military camps in Nanzhou.

But after what happened this time, how could the court sit idly by and ignore it?

Naturally, Zhou Qin could no longer control the military power!

Once he lost his military power, Chen Yannan no longer needed to be afraid of him.

When the time comes, it will be easy to deal with him.

"I see!"

Li Beifeng nodded slightly. He looked at Chen Yannan and raised the wine glass in his hand: "Then... I would like to congratulate Mr. Chen in advance. Without him being such a poisonous person, I hope Mr. Chen can continue to benefit the people of Nanzhou. There is Mr. Chen in Nanzhou. , is a blessing for the people of Nanzhou..."

"Don't dare take it!"

Chen Yannan shook his head: "I am just an ordinary bureaucrat, how can I bear such praise? I can only try my best and do my duty to keep the people of Nanzhou away from the war and suffer less..."

When he said this, Chen Yannan seemed to remember something and sighed slightly.

"Master Chen, what does this mean? Could it be that something happened?" Li Beifeng noticed something.

Chen Yannan glanced at him and sighed: "Little Miracle Doctor Li doesn't know something. Dazhao is not as peaceful as it seems on the surface... You look at Nanzhou, where there are people singing and singing every night, and it is extremely prosperous. But behind the prosperity, there is It is riddled with holes and unsightly..."

"The emperor in Beijing has ignored the government affairs for a long time. There are many factions of officials in the court, and the six departments of the court are fighting among themselves and plotting against each other, which has mixed up the whole court. If it weren't for the high prestige of Prime Minister Su, he would be miserable. Suffering supports the court, and the common people don't know what harm they will do..."

When he said this, Chen Yannan's tone was obviously angry.

He came from the capital, so he was naturally very familiar with the struggles among officials in the imperial court.

Now in the court, there is no hope of salvation and he is terminally ill.

"Even they are fighting openly and secretly, framing each other to seize power. Under such circumstances, how many people will care about the people of the world?"

"In Beizhou, there have been frequent rebellions over the years, and hundreds of people have nothing to live for... However, the court still sits idly by. The atmosphere of Beizhou has spread to Zhongzhou, and even Nanzhou is no exception..."

"I, Dazhao, are in danger!"

Chen Yannan's last tone was one of sigh, pity, unwillingness, anger, and hatred that iron cannot be transformed into steel...

As a minister of Dazhao, he could only watch helplessly as Dazhao continued to decline from its former prosperity to its current situation.

sad!

exasperating!

At this time, Li Beifeng's eyes narrowed: "Master Chen, why do you say this?"

Is Dazhao in danger?

Although the interior of Dazhao is indeed riddled with holes, in Li Beifeng's view, this is a necessary stage for a feudal dynasty.

Now it seems that the Jokhang Dynasty is indeed in decline.

But after all, it is not easy for such a large dynasty to collapse in a short time, unless...

"There are frequent uprisings in Beizhou, and the old Northern Qi tribe is still watching..."

Chen Yannan's face was slightly gloomy and he said solemnly: "Seventeen or eighteen years ago, the Great Zhao destroyed the Northern Qi. Although it destroyed the main army of the Northern Qi, it failed to eradicate it... Over the years, the old troops of the Northern Qi are still there, and even continue to grow. They are here Hiding, waiting for the opportunity, they want to restore the country..."

"But what about us? What about our Jokhang officials? They are immersed in the dream of heaven and earth, and have no idea of ​​the danger..."

There was a hint of danger in Chen Yannan's eyes: "A few days ago, I received some intelligence from Beizhou... Beizhou, I'm afraid there will be chaos!"

Li Beifeng seemed to realize something: "Did the old Northern Qi tribe rebel?"

"Not yet, but probably... soon!"

Chen Yannan took a deep breath, with a sad look in his eyes: "I have long asserted that the old troops of Northern Qi will come back sooner or later... That battle back then should not have been fought!"

"Back then, in order to divert domestic conflicts and expand externally, His Majesty pointed the finger at the Northern Qi. Although the Northern Qi was eventually destroyed, he also resorted to militarism and was severely damaged. What's more important is that to this day, he has not been able to completely tame Beizhou... It can be said to be an extremely ill-advised move..."

Li Beifeng took a high look at Mr. Chen in front of him.

The battle to destroy the Northern Qi Dynasty was the most proud achievement of the Emperor of Zhao.

He even thought that his achievements and honors were comparable to those of the founder of the Zhao Dynasty. Under the bragging of those sycophantic ministers, he felt even more proud. He felt that he was the emperor of the ages, and he almost went to become a Zen...

However, Chen Yannan in front of him said directly that it was a mistake to destroy Northern Qi.

It is enough to tell that Mr. Chen in front of him is probably one of the few people in the officialdom of Jokhang today who dares to tell the truth.

Moreover, the fact that Chen Yannan was able to tell Li Beifeng these things was enough to show that he regarded Li Beifeng as one of his own.

Otherwise, if his remarks were to spread, it would definitely be extremely detrimental to him.

"Master Chen, be careful what you say!"

Li Beifeng reminded.

"I know, it's just...I'm not willing to accept it!"

Chen Yannan finally shook his head, so what if he didn't give in.

He is powerless to change.

"Sooner or later there will be a battle between the old Northern Qi tribe and Dazhao, and I have a hunch... I'm afraid it's not far away..."

As if realizing something, Chen Yannan took a deep breath and said in a slightly heavy tone: "Beizhou is too far away from Nanzhou, so I don't know what happened. I just hope that if the war really breaks out, there will be fewer people involved. People..."

At this time, Li Beifeng's heart suddenly moved, and he looked at Chen Yannan in front of him.

He is the governor of Chaoyang County.

This official position, in later generations, can be regarded as a feudal official...

Of course, there is a big gap between him and the real feudal officials.

but……

Chen Yannan has a huge say in Nanzhou.

Especially this time with the fall of Zhou and Qin, the military power in his hands will inevitably be vacated.

When the time comes, who will lose this military power?

it goes without saying!

And if Chen Yannan holds both political power and military power in Nanzhou, his status cannot be underestimated.

Li Beifeng suddenly said: "Master Chen, I have a doubt. I don't know whether I should talk about it or not?"

Chen Yannan waved his hand: "Please tell me, there is no need to be so polite between you and me!"

"Then I'll be blunt, Mr. Chen, I would like to ask, if, what I am talking about is joining..."

"The old troops of the Northern Qi Dynasty have really rebelled, and when the war comes to Nanzhou, then..."

Li Beifeng looked at him: "What will you do?"

Chen Yannan hesitated.

Obviously he didn't expect Li Beifeng to ask such a question.

This question stopped him.

Li Beifeng continued: "Mr. Chen, as the parent official of Nanzhou, you naturally do not want the people of Nanzhou to suffer from the war. But what should we do if that day comes?"

"Did Mr. Chen choose to avoid fighting for the sake of the people of Nanzhou. Or... get involved?"

Chen Yannan fell silent.

He didn't speak for a long time.

It's a tough choice!

After a while, Chen Yannan shook his head: "I don't know about this either. But...if the war really reaches Nanzhou, it means that the Great Zhao is in danger..."

"When the time comes, I'm afraid it won't be up to me to decide even if it's a matter of life and death..."

"..."

"Little Miracle Doctor Li, why do you suddenly ask this question?"

Chen Yannan suddenly looked at Li Beifeng.

Li Beifeng smiled: "As ordinary people, we don't understand the affairs of the court. But no matter how hard the court tries, the people will suffer in the end... I just hope there will be less war!"

"Little Miracle Doctor Li is kind and admirable..."

"Actually, I came to see you today, Mr. Chen, for one more thing..."

Li Beifeng paused and said, "I'm here to say goodbye to Mr. Chen!"

"Farewell?"

Chen Yannan was stunned: "Little Miracle Doctor Li, are you going... to go back?"

He instinctively thought that Li Beifeng was going back to Ping'an County.

Li Beifeng shook his head: "No, I want to go out for a walk while I'm young and see the outside world..."

Chen Yannan had a look of envy on his face: "I'm quite envious of Dr. Li. It would be nice to go out for a walk while you're young... I wonder where you plan to go?"

"I'm not sure yet, let's go north and have a look... Maybe, we won't necessarily go to Beizhou!"

"Beizhou?"

Chen Yannan was stunned: "Are you going to Beizhou?"

"I want to see what the legendary Beizhou looks like!" Li Beifeng smiled.

Chen Yannan originally wanted to dissuade him, but after thinking about it, he decided to let it go.

"Now that Little Miracle Doctor Li has decided, I can't say anything more. It's just that there is chaos in Beizhou, so you must be careful!"

"Thank you, Mr. Chen, for your concern."

"Speaking of which, if you go to Beizhou, you will most likely have to pass through the capital. Along the way to the county, I made a lot of friends. There are also some close friends of mine in Beijing..."

Chen Yannan looked at Li Beifeng: "When the time comes, I will write a letter and ask them to take care of you along the way. If you have any difficulties, you can also go to them directly. They can help you to some extent..."

"..."

Come out of the prefect's mansion.

Li Beifeng breathed a sigh of relief.

He glanced back at the prefect's mansion and was silent for a moment.

This Master Chen can indeed be regarded as a person of temperament.

However, Li Beifeng's mood was a bit complicated.

As he said, Beizhou is going to be in chaos.

Once chaos breaks out in Beizhou, the entire Dazhao will inevitably be implicated.

Can Nanzhou avoid chaos?

feeling bad!

No one is sure how many spies from the old Northern Qi army are in Nanzhou.

And he...

Li Beifeng is even more unsure of his identity. He also doesn't know whether he will stand opposite Master Chen one day in the future...

What should we do if we really fight against each other?

It’s difficult!

Li Beifeng shook his head and stopped thinking about it for the time being.

Before leaving the county, he still needed to visit some people.

at the same time……

Fix some people!

His eyes were looking somewhere not far away.

Eyes calm.

Some people deserve to die!

…

Night falls.

Inside the Zhou Mansion.

There was silence.

A girl in a light dress sat on the roof of the attic, looking up at the stars quietly.

The cold wind at night is a bit strong!

But she didn't care at all and was indifferent.

Downstairs, the butler's figure appeared.

"Miss!"

"How's it going?"

"Miss, there are no suspicious signs, everything is normal..."

"I know, keep guarding!"

"yes!"

"..."

The housekeeper left, but the girl's eyes remained calm, looking up to the sky.

There were no stars in the dark sky.

Between heaven and earth, only the cold wind blows.

In the distance, the entire county town is dotted with sparks and remains prosperous.

The originally silent sky became silent after an unknown amount of time.

Sudden……

Several black spots appeared in the distance, getting closer and closer.

These black spots approached and gradually turned into several dark figures.

They approached the Zhou Mansion at an extremely fast speed and with hidden figures.

However, it all fell into the eyes of the girl.

"coming?"

The girl whispered softly.

finally come!

He came after all.

Her eyes were cold and she let the dark figures approach until they reached the wall outside Zhou Mansion.

The girl moved!

She stood up slowly, took one step forward, and jumped down from the attic.

Extremely fast!

Like a fairy descending to earth, she quickly flew over the walls in the night.

Not long after, it landed on the wall, blocking the way of several men in black.

She looked at these people with cold eyes, put her hands behind her back, and said coldly: "Go back and tell your master, don't waste your efforts!"

The man in black didn't make a sound, and they quickly approached.

At the same time, in the dark night, they showed off their weapons.

Rays of cold light lit up in the dark alley, and several black shadows jumped up at the same time.

They came quickly towards the girl from different directions.

The girl stood there, still motionless.

It wasn't until a few figures approached that she took action.

The speed is extremely fast, so fast that it is almost invisible to the naked eye.

"boom!"

A black shadow was directly knocked away.

The girl disappeared from the spot.

The next second, another black shadow appeared behind him.

Another hard blow to the hand.

Another man in black fell.

She slowly raised her head and looked at the last man in black, Feng Qingyun said calmly: "Are you coming again?"

The remaining ones got Heiying. Although his face was covered, he could still feel the fear in his eyes.

powerful!

too strong!

Where did this woman come from?

Why are there such powerful women in the county?

However, the man in black knew that he was no match, but he did not retreat.

He tightened his grip on the sword and pointed it at her.

"Don't overestimate your capabilities!"

The girl spoke softly.

She slowly raised her hand.

The majestic internal force emerged, lifting up a locust tree in the yard next to it.

The leaves fell one after another.

She waved again.

In an instant, the fallen leaves suddenly seemed to have strength. It instantly changed direction and swept towards the man in black.

The man in black's eyes suddenly widened.

Picking flowers and leaves? !

The man in black raised his sword and quickly blocked it.

"Ding!"

When the sword hit the fallen leaves, it made a crisp sound as if it were hitting a metal object.

"puff……"

The figure of the man in black retreated continuously, and a mouthful of blood suddenly spurted out.

All the leaves have fallen.

The girl stretched out her hand, and the last fallen leaf fell on her hand.

Playing with the leaves in her hands, she glanced at the last man in black: "Are you coming again?"

The man in black was shaky and tried to stand up.

"Ah!"

The last leaf in his hand was taken out instantly.

Like a ferocious hidden weapon, its murderous intent is revealed.

"boom!"

Leaves dug into the wall where the man in black was holding his hand.

The next second, there was a loud explosion!

The leaves containing internal energy exploded instantly.

Such power is frightening.

The man in black who had just stood up suddenly fell down again.

"..."

The girl who saw this scene raised the corners of her mouth slightly.

She was still standing on the wall, glanced not far away, and frowned slightly.

That's it?

If he really wanted to come, would he just send a few people?

Are you looking down on yourself a little too much?

The girl vaguely felt that something was wrong, but she couldn't remember it for a while.

Her eyes fell on the last man in black, and she said coldly: "How many of you are here?"

The man in black didn't speak, but looked at her with a slightly fearful look.

This look...

The girl's uneasiness became more and more obvious.

"housekeeper!"

The housekeeper quickly appeared under the wall, "Miss!"

"Is anyone else close?"

"Miss, there is no..."

The housekeeper shook his head. The area was heavily guarded and no one came close.

"Nobody?"

She still felt something was wrong.

"this……"

The housekeeper hesitated for a moment and then said softly: "Not long ago, a servant who often came to deliver food to the house came to deliver food, but he has already left..."

Hearing this, the girl's eyes suddenly froze.

"Something's wrong!"

"go back!"

"..."

In the dark and deserted corridor, a figure dressed like a servant of the Zhou family came to the door of the inner courtyard room carrying something.

The guard at the door stopped him: "Who is it?"

"The young lady ordered me to deliver medicine to the young master..."

The two guards looked seriously and looked down at the medicine given by the visitor.

After making sure there was no problem, he let the person in.

Stepping into the inner courtyard, he came to the door of the room and knocked on the door.

"Get out!"

Zhou Zhongzheng's irritable voice came from the room.

The servant's voice was slightly hoarse: "Sir, let me bring you medicine!"

"roll!"

The voices in the room were extremely violent.

"Squeak!"

The door to the room was pushed open, and the servant stepped into the room.

On the bed, Zhou Zhongzheng looked ferocious and irritable.

Ever since he woke up, he has looked like this.

The servants in the house did not dare to provoke him, and many of the maids who served him were frightened to tears.

Therefore, there was no one else in the room at this time.

The servant came to the bedside with the medicine.

"Are you deaf? I told you to get out, didn't you hear?"

Mid-week is a time of irritability and anger.

"Sir, it's time to take medicine!"

The servant calmly said: "Miss said that this medicine was brought from the miracle doctor Luo. It can heal your legs, sir, and has a miraculous effect on recovery..."

Hearing this, Zhou Zhong was stunned for a moment.

His legs are his biggest taboo now.

When he heard that it could heal his legs, he suddenly stared at the servant: "Really?"

"Don't you dare lie to me, sir!" The servant lowered his head.

"Bring the medicine!"

Zhou Zhongzheng was silent for a moment and then spoke.

The servant came forward with medicine.

Zhongzhou picked up the medicine bowl and was about to drink it.

Suddenly, he seemed to realize something and glanced up at the servant: "Why are you so unfamiliar? Why haven't I seen you before?"

The servant whispered: "I just came to the house not long ago..."

Zhou Zhongzheng's eyes immediately became alert: "You just came?! Who are you?!"

Zhou Zhongzheng was naturally extremely wary of people who had just come to the house.

"Sir, drink the medicine first!"

"I don't drink, who are you?"

Zhou Zhongzheng became increasingly vigilant, and he immediately opened his mouth to shout.

However, before he could shout out. The servant suddenly stepped forward and grabbed his throat.

Zhou Zhongzheng was immediately unable to move at all, and his desperate struggles were of no avail.

"Since you don't want to drink, then I can only help you!"

The servant expressionlessly picked up the bowl and poured all the medicine in the bowl into Zhou Zhongzheng's mouth.

"Well……"

Zhongzhou was struggling desperately, but to no avail.

"Young Master asked me to tell you something!"

After pouring the medicine, the servant looked at Zhou Zhongzheng, who looked frightened, and spoke softly.

"Evil will be punished. Master, let you... die in peace!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the servant slapped him on the back of the head.

Zhou Zhongzheng fainted instantly.

Just as the servant was packing up his things, footsteps were heard from the door not far away.

His eyes suddenly condensed, he quickly came to the window next to him, and quickly climbed through the window and left.

…

"boom!"

The room door was knocked open.

Zhou Qiuning's figure appeared in the room, followed closely by the housekeeper who looked anxious and nervous.

"Master, Master, are you okay?"

The butler quickly stepped forward and spoke anxiously.

"Young Master has passed out... he's still breathing, he's fine..."

After checking it, the housekeeper breathed a sigh of relief.

After hearing the news, Zhou Qiuning frowned slightly. She quickly came to the bed and glanced at Zhou Zhongzheng on the bed.

Passed out?

As if she noticed something, she turned around and glanced around the room, vaguely smelling something.

At this moment, a voice suddenly came from outside the door.

"There's an assassin!"

Her eyes suddenly condensed, and she quickly turned around and went out.

…

early morning.

Li Beifeng got up from the inn room as usual.

Wash up and go downstairs for breakfast.

Xiaoerergou has already prepared breakfast.

While eating breakfast, Ergou talked about some gossip news that happened in the county recently.

After finishing breakfast, Li Beifeng stood up, said hello to the shopkeeper, and prepared to go out.

He is going to Luo Lao's appointment!

After agreeing to Mr. Luo last time, I didn't have time to visit him yet.

We are about to leave the county town, so we should go and say hello, both emotionally and logically.

However, Li Beifeng stopped just after leaving the inn door.

Outside the inn door, a figure stood blocking his way.

Li Beifeng's eyes were calm: "Why are you here?"

"how did you do that!"

Her tone was neither sad nor happy, and no emotion could be heard.

"I don't understand what you are saying. I have something else to do. Let's go first!"

Li Beifeng shook his head, turned and left.

"How did you kill him?"

Li Beifeng stopped and glanced at her: "What did you say? When did I kill someone?"

"Can you fool me?"

She stared at Li Beifeng, "It's true that I underestimated you!"

"I do not understand what you are saying!"

Li Beifeng still shook his head and turned to leave.

She was left standing there, staring at Li Beifeng's leaving figure with no emotion in her eyes.

…

"Are you going to Beizhou?"

When Mr. Luo heard the news, he was very surprised.

"Yes, I plan to go to Beizhou to verify my suspicion!"

Li Beifeng spoke.

"I see……"

Mr. Luo nodded. Li Beifeng had asked him about some information about Beizhou and Yaowang Valley before.

Now that Li Beifeng is going to Beizhou, he is not too surprised.

"It's just a pity. I just came back from Beizhou not long ago. Otherwise, I would like to go there again..."

Mr. Luo shook his head: "What are your plans for going to Beizhou this time?"

"We don't know yet!" Li Beifeng shook his head.

"Then when will you come back?"

"Not sure either..."

Mr. Luo sighed: "What a pity!"

"I originally wanted to win you over to the Jishihui, but now it seems that you really don't have that ambition!" Mr. Luo sighed with emotion.

Li Beifeng said: "Thank you, Mr. Luo, for your kindness. If you are free in the future, I will definitely come back to see you, Mr. Luo!"

“I don’t know how many more years I can live with my old bones!”

Mr. Luo waved his hands and sighed: "Since I have decided to go, I can't say anything more. The road to Beizhou is long, so be careful along the way..."

"Thank you, Mr. Luo, for your concern!"

"..."

After visiting Mr. Luo, Li Beifeng finally breathed a sigh of relief.

The people who need to be visited have been visited!

The preparations are almost complete.

Next, it’s time to plan to leave!

Just when he was about to leave.

Suddenly, a burst of murderous intent suddenly struck.

Li Beifeng's whole body was tense.

The figure retreated quickly.

"Ding!"

A flying sword was inserted into the position where Li Beifeng was just now.

There is an extra hole in the ground.

Li Beifeng's eyes were alert and he raised his head suddenly.

Not far away, a figure appeared in the line of sight.

She is wearing a light red dress and her black hair is extremely eye-catching.

However, when Li Beifeng saw her, his tense body relaxed.

"What do you mean?"

"he died!"

Zhou Qiuning's voice was neither cold nor hot, and there was still no emotion.

died?

Who died?

Is Zhou Zhongzheng dead?

Li Beifeng's expression calmed down.

"So...you think I am the murderer and you come to me for revenge?"

"if not?"

She spoke slowly.

"What evidence do you have that I am the murderer?"

"Need evidence?"

She looked at Li Beifeng: "Did you lie to me?"

"But you have no proof!"

"Ah!"

Zhou Qiuning glanced at him: "I don't need evidence!"

"You don't need evidence, you're just slandering me!"

"..."

"Draw your sword!"

"What's the meaning?"

"Don't say I bullied you!"

Zhou Qiuning spoke coldly.

The next second, she waved her hand.

A strong strong wind swept over.

Li Beifeng dodged again.

"boom!"

"Are you serious?"

"If you don't resist, you will die!"

Her voice was still cold.

The next second, she came closer, her figure approaching Li Beifeng'er.

Is she really serious? ! !

Li Beifeng's eyes narrowed.

Knowing she wasn't joking, she took it seriously.

He quickly pulled out the sword on the ground and raised it to resist.

"boom!"

There was an explosion.

The collision of internal forces caused a strong explosion in an instant.

Mr. Luo shook his head: "What are your plans for going to Beizhou this time?"

"We don't know yet!" Li Beifeng shook his head.

"Then when will you come back?"

"Not sure either..."

Mr. Luo sighed: "What a pity!"

"I originally wanted to win you over to the Jishihui, but now it seems that you really don't have that ambition!" Mr. Luo sighed with emotion.

Li Beifeng said: "Thank you, Mr. Luo, for your kindness. If you are free in the future, I will definitely come back to see you, Mr. Luo!"

“I don’t know how many more years I can live with my old bones!”

Mr. Luo waved his hands and sighed: "Since I have decided to go, I can't say anything more. The road to Beizhou is long, so be careful along the way..."

"Thank you, Mr. Luo, for your concern!"

"..."

After visiting Mr. Luo, Li Beifeng finally breathed a sigh of relief.

The people who need to be visited have been visited!

The preparations are almost complete.

Next, it’s time to plan to leave!
