This is your world

Above officialdom.

The densely packed refugees as far as the eye can see have blocked the official road.

Those refugees in ragged clothes fled from the south. Among them were sallow and thin men, half-clothed women, and hungry children waiting to be fed...

On both sides of the official road, there was chaos from time to time, causing shouts of looting. The ugliness of human nature was vividly displayed at this moment.

How could this scene ever look so familiar?

On the carriage, Li Beifeng stared at the scene outside the carriage and remained silent for a long time.

This scene happened in Beizhou just half a year ago.

At that time, it was even more tragic than the scene in front of me.

How many people froze to death in Beizhou last winter?

Now, this scene is almost going to happen again in Jokhang!

This is Zhongzhou, the richest place in Dazhao except Jiangnan.

However, the scene in front of them makes people wonder, is this really the prosperous Zhongzhou?

What should the people in Nanzhou look like during the war?

No answer!

Li Beifeng felt a little heavy as he looked at the scene outside the carriage.

The people of Da Zhao have fallen to this point, and he is also responsible for it!

The flames of war always affect ordinary people. If you want to change all this, you cannot completely solve the problem of war.

only……

Can it really be solved?

Li Beifeng felt heavy and remained silent.

"Master!"

Lin Ning's voice came from outside the carriage. He was driving the carriage slowly towards the capital.

Along the way, they encountered many difficulties. Those who robbed, those who cried for help, those who were about to starve to death and wanted to sell their wives and daughters... If there were not many experts protecting the carriage, the return to the capital would have been delayed for who knows how long.

"Sir, shall we enter the city now?"

Li Beifeng's face was expressionless, and there was no expression on his cold face.

His face was already wearing the disguised silk mask.

Now that his identity has been exposed and his appearance has been spread all over the world, Li Beifeng had to disguise himself to hide his true appearance just in case.

He was extremely low-key when he came to the capital this time and did not attract anyone's attention.

In addition, even Lin Ning also changed his appearance and returned here after changing his disguise.

"Come into town!"

Li Beifeng spoke in a deep voice and did not look out the car window again.

This time he came to the capital to change everything, to save the people in the world from the suffering of war.

This is the only thing Li Beifeng can do now.

The carriage moved forward slowly and gradually arrived outside the capital gate.

At the gate of the city, countless soldiers were heavily guarded, checking the people passing by. Nowadays, the capital is heavily guarded, and ordinary people cannot be easily let into the city.

Li Beifeng easily entered the city with the help of the Commander Qin Tian badge on Lin Ning's body.

It has to be said that Qin Tiansi's reputation still exists.

The last time Li Beifeng left Sunset City overnight, he also relied on Lin Ning Qintiansi's token. Now that so much time has passed, Qin Tiansi is still standing tall.

The city defense outside the city changed a lot, but there were also many familiar faces among them, but no one recognized Li Beifeng and Lin Ning.

The two entered the city smoothly, while the other masters who followed Li Beifeng this time stayed outside the city to support them.

"Sir, what should we do next?"

Lin Ning asked.

Li Beifeng glanced at the streets of the capital. After a few months, nothing in the capital seemed to have changed. Nothing seemed to have changed much from before he left.

Everything in front of me is still prosperous, and it seems that it has not been affected by the war at all!

"Let's first understand the current situation in the capital, find a place to stay for the time being, and then make the next step!"

"yes!"

After separating from Lin Ning, Li Beifeng went straight to Ruyilou's stronghold in Beijing.

Although Li Beifeng has left the capital, Ruyilou's spies are still all over the capital. Therefore, even though they were far apart, Li Beifeng in Sunset City could still receive information from Ruyi Tower in the capital.

However, due to the strict security measures in the capital over the past month, very little information has been sent out.

Li Beifeng quietly avoided everyone's attention and arrived at a stronghold in Ruyi Building.

…

"Sir, this is the latest information in the capital, all compiled here!"

In Ruyi Building, several disciples sent a large amount of information to Li Beifeng.

Li Beifeng flipped through the information to understand the recent situation in the capital.

The situation in the capital was relatively good. With the cooperation of Qin Tiansi and Jingzhao Mansion, the 'rumors' among the people were nipped in the cradle.

Coupled with the "closure" of the capital, many people are not very clear about the situation outside. Therefore, the order in the capital was not chaotic.

But there was quite a disturbance in the court hall.

When the Jokhang imperial army was retreating steadily, it was even heard that many court officials had secretly contacted Prince Zhaonan to show their goodwill in advance.

There were hardly many available people in the entire court.

If it weren't for the hard support of Prime Minister Su and several loyal veterans, the people of the Jokhang Court would have been disbanded.

After a long time, Li Beifeng raised his head from all the information, his eyes were calm, and he murmured: "Zhao Jing is much worse than I thought!"

Zhao Jing is not a qualified emperor!

...at least not yet.

He seized the throne by killing his father and became the new emperor of Jokhang, so he still has a long way to go.

Maybe if you give him enough time, he can indeed grow into an excellent emperor.

But right now, there is no time for him!

Prince Zhaonan's rebellion almost dragged him into the abyss, with no way to retreat.

As an inexperienced emperor for the first time, he seemed to be in disarray under such repeated stimulus blows.

"This is going to be a bit bad!"

Li Beifeng squinted his eyes and seemed to think of something. He glanced at a female disciple in the hall and said, "How is the Su family doing?"

"Sir, there is nothing strange about the Su family. Before you left, you specifically asked your disciples to keep an eye on the Su family and the Liu family. There is nothing strange about these two families..."

Listening to the female disciple's explanation, Li Beifeng nodded and then left the room.

Not long after, he came to a familiar small courtyard.

There were hidden lines all around the courtyard. Two female disciples were still standing at the door of the room not far away. When Li Beifeng approached, the two female disciples said respectfully: "Young Master!"

"Not awake yet?"

"Not awake!"

Li Beifeng was stunned for a moment, a little surprised.

Then, he opened the door to the room.

The room was filled with the faint scent of herbs.

Soon, Li Beifeng saw a familiar figure on the bed in the room.

Emperor Zhao!

After not seeing him for several months, Emperor Zhao had lost a lot of weight. It would be no exaggeration to describe his whole body as skinny.

However, he still showed no sign of waking up.

Li Beifeng frowned slightly.

If it had been someone else, he would have become a vegetative person in this era and would have died.

But Li Beifeng used a special method to successfully extend the life of Emperor Zhao, and he is still alive today. But even so, judging from the current situation, he won't be able to hold on for long. If he doesn't wake up, he may not be able to save himself.

Li Beifeng went through all the trouble to rescue Emperor Zhao and revive him, not just to help him survive in a vegetative state.

He had to live and wake up so that Li Beifeng's hard work was not in vain.

But right now...

It just depends on destiny!

"If you don't wake up, your country will be destroyed by your unfilial son!"

Li Beifeng sighed lightly, then glanced at the female disciple next to him: "Did anyone come to see him while I was away?"

The female disciple shook her head: "No!"

"Keep watching. If there are any signs of waking up, notify me immediately!"

"yes!"

…

Night falls.

Su Mansion.

study.

A hunchbacked old figure leaned on the chair, looking at the folds on the table, frowning.

After a while, he slowly raised his head.

There was a bit of helplessness and a bit of deep anxiety on that old face.

The white hair adds a bit of age!

"Master, take a rest!"

The worried voice of the housekeeper came from beside him.

Su Jianan then slowly raised his head as if waking up from a dream, and glanced at the night. It was dark!

His eyes were downcast and silent.

The war ahead is tense, the situation is extremely unfavorable to Da Zhao, and the court is in chaos. No matter how hard he tries, he is powerless and unable to recover.

"Could it be that this great country is about to be ruined in the hands of me, Su?"

There was a tremor in Su Jian'an's voice. He had worked hard for Da Zhao for so many years. Could it be that in the end, he would become Da Zhao's sinner? !

Thinking of this, Su Jianan's whole body seemed to be trembling.

"Master, don't worry too much. I, Dazhao, still have room for maneuver, and we haven't completely lost control yet..."

The butler behind him comforted her, but his words had no effect.

Nowadays, everyone with a discerning eye can see the prospects of Dazhao.

Su Jianan was silent for a long time and sighed deeply.

"I'm going out for a walk, don't follow me!"

He stood up slowly and came to the courtyard. He breathed in the fresh air and seemed to feel a little better.

Afterwards, he took a stroll inside the Su Mansion.

The Su Mansion was quiet, and I didn't meet anyone for a long time.

The once prosperous and bustling Su Mansion seemed to have collapsed overnight.

Since Mother Su's death, the entire Su Mansion has fallen into chaos. A large number of maids and servants in the mansion have been sent home. Now, apart from the daily maids and servants, there are not many people left in the mansion.

In the darkness of night, the entire Su Mansion was shrouded in desolation.

Su Jianan was walking alone in the mansion. Unknowingly, he came to a courtyard and suddenly stopped.

He looked up and stared at the courtyard for a long time, a trace of sadness flashed in his eyes.

Finally, he took steps and walked into the courtyard.

The familiar yet unfamiliar place is now deserted and deserted.

All the original servants and maids in the courtyard have been driven away. The courtyard has been sealed and no one is allowed to enter.

In the yard that used to be full of flowers, now there are only withered flowers and bare trees. Withered yellow leaves fell on the ground, and even the water in the small pond not far away was turbid, and the entire yard was covered with a thick layer of dust.

No one has lived here for a long time!

It's only been a few months, but it seems like a century has passed!

Su Jianan stood in the courtyard, staring at the scene in front of him, as if recalling certain memories.

At this moment, this middle-aged man in his prime was like an old man who was about to die, having lost all his energy.

There was a bit of sadness and nostalgia in those cloudy eyes.

As the Prime Minister of a country, he is undoubtedly very outstanding and successful. But as a husband and father, he failed completely.

Although he and his wife had no feelings, even if they were just forced together through marriage, after so many years of getting along day and night, plus the birth of two children, the relationship was unbreakable no matter what.

But, she is dead!

Died at the hands of his own daughter!

The grudges of the previous generation were extended to the next generation due to his indecision and inaction.

And it was himself who caused all these consequences.

It wasn't until this moment that Su Jianan began to regret it.

But, everything was too late.

His wife and eldest son are dead, his younger son has run away from home and is nowhere to be found, and his daughter hates him and refuses to acknowledge him.

Today, Su Jianan is left alone!

Although the Su Mansion is large, he has lost any of his relatives!

Poor and hateful!

…

After an unknown amount of time, Su Jianan stiffened and turned around, planning to leave.

At this moment, he suddenly stopped again and looked up in one direction.

Not far away, on the wall of the courtyard, a figure was sitting, staring at him quietly in the courtyard.

The two looked at each other.

At this moment, Su Jian'an's originally cloudy eyes suddenly burst into light!

"It's you?!"

"it's me."

"You still dare to come back?"

"Why not?"

"..."

The person who appeared on the wall was Li Beifeng who took off his silk mask. He sat by the wall and looked quietly at Su Jianan who appeared in the small courtyard.

With nothing to do at night, Li Beifeng had a sudden idea of ​​sneaking into the place where Su Mansion had lived before he came.

But he didn't expect that he would run into Su Jian'an by accident!

Why did he come here?

Is it possible...

Li Beifeng squinted his eyes, his eyes meaningful.

At this moment, Su Jianan stared at Li Beifeng, his eyes were particularly complicated, and there was a hint of coldness in his voice: "Aren't you afraid that I will kill you?"

"Why did Su Xiang want to kill me?" Li Beifeng said in a relaxed tone.

"You are a remnant of an enemy country. Now that you have appeared in our country, do you think I should kill you?!"

Su Jianan's eyes contained strong murderous intent.

Li Beifeng's identity as the Crown Prince of the Northern Qi Dynasty has been spread throughout the world, so how could he not know about it? !

When he first heard the news, Su Jianan was extremely shocked. The person who had lived in his mansion for so long could actually be a remnant of the Northern Qi Dynasty? !

"That makes sense!"

Li Beifeng nodded to himself, but half-smiled: "But I don't think Prime Minister Su will kill me!"

"Why?"

"Su Xiang is so smart, do you need me to explain more?" Li Beifeng said calmly.

Su Jianan was silent. He stared at the young man in front of him, his heart turbulent.

This young man who he couldn't see through before seems to be even more invisible now!

And his identity was finally revealed!

Prince of Northern Qi!

The remnants of the Northern Qi Dynasty!

If he dares to come here today, he must be confident!

Can Su Jianan kill him?

You can kill, but you can't!

Many thoughts flashed through Su Jianan's mind. He stared at Li Beifeng and said in a deep voice: "What is your purpose of coming here?!"

Li Beifeng chuckled and said, "I came to see Prime Minister Su and wanted to ask Prime Minister Su to do me a favor!"

Su Jianan said coldly: "Do you think I will agree?"

"Su Xiang, don't refuse in a hurry..."

Li Beifeng glanced at him meaningfully: "I think, Su Xiang, you don't want to see Dazhao fall apart in your lifetime, right?"

"..."
