This is your world

Chapter 696 The tough-tongued eldest princess

The situation in the world is undercurrent.

As the war broke out between Nanzhou and Beizhou, people in Jokhang were panicked and countless people were uneasy.

In the land of Beizhou, the old Northern Qi party was in a stalemate with the Jokhang Army led by He Wansheng.

No one expected that the old Northern Qi tribe, which was not favored by anyone in the past, could actually push He Wansheng to such an extent.

As the former God of War of Jokhang, He Wan had numerous military exploits during the first half of his life and was known as the Undefeated God of War. However, in the face of the powerful troops and horses of Northern Qi, they were unable to attack for a long time, and they were entangled in a stalemate with the rebels of Northern Qi.

It is unclear whether He Wansheng was born in vain or whether the Northern Qi Dynasty was coming with force.

But because of this, more and more people in Beizhou saw that the momentum was not right. In the past, people from the Northern Qi Dynasty continued to defect to the old army, further strengthening the power of the Northern Qi Dynasty.

As a result, the entire Beizhou land is almost in danger of falling.

But Dazhao was powerless. Now Dazhao was dragged into the quagmire of fighting on two fronts. In Beizhou, except for He Wansheng's hard support, there was no reinforcement.

No one knows what the future will be like!

But in the eyes of many Jokhang people, it is now a time of despair.

In addition to the Jiangnan area, the rebels of Prince Zhaonan entered Nanzhou and had a stalemate with the Jokhang imperial army.

Under such circumstances, the world was boiling, and the capital was particularly affected.

Even under the suppression of Jingzhao Mansion and Qin Tiansi, once the panic news came, it could not be stopped no matter what.

For a time, public opinions about the emperor's guilt continued to spread.

Since the new king of Zhao came to the throne, the world has never been at peace. Now it is because of the emperor's wrong decision that Dazhao is in such a predicament that the people are in dire straits.

Countless people with lofty ideals came forward, causing the court's prestige to be greatly reduced, and there were vague signs of collapse.

In the past few days, many people with lofty ideals have appeared in the capital to demonstrate. They have united with many scholars in the capital to criticize the traitors of the imperial court and petition the emperor to issue an edict against them.

Although the demonstrators were quickly captured by the Jingzhao Prefecture and the leaders were thrown into jail, they still could not stop the fermentation of public opinion in Beijing.

As the number of refugees outside the capital increases, even the city defense army seems to be somewhat inadequate.

The entire Jokhang River is crumbling.

Under such circumstances, in the early morning of this day, several figures secretly entered the palace from Qintiansi in the capital.

at the same time.

Su Mansion.

A figure dressed in white fell into the courtyard quietly.

The moment she first appeared, two figures appeared around her.

However, soon, when the two figures saw each other's appearance, their hearts trembled and their whole bodies tensed up, as if facing a formidable enemy.

Zhao Ying stood quietly in the courtyard, ignoring the two people around her, and looked at one of the rooms with cold eyes: "Is Su Xiang here?"

At the same time, the closed door slowly opened, and Su Jianan, with white hair and an old look, slowly walked out of the room.

He seemed to be feeling a little uncomfortable, and his whole body was hunched over. This Prime Minister Su, who has devoted his whole life to Dazhao, is now extremely old.

"I have met Her Royal Highness the eldest princess!"

Su Jianan's eyes fell on Zhao Ying, seeming a little surprised.

"Xiang Su, no need to be polite!"

Zhao Ying spoke calmly.

"I wonder what the eldest princess has to do when she comes in to see the old minister?!"

A few months ago, the eldest princess left the capital and disappeared.

Now, I didn't expect the eldest princess to come back here again. For some reason, Su Xiang felt vaguely confused.

"Xiang Su, there is someone who wants to see you!"

Zhao Ying spoke in a cold tone.

"see me?"

Su Xiang was startled, but when he saw Zhao Ying's calm eyes, he was silent for a moment and nodded.

"good!"

"..."

In the dim secret room, Su Xiang walked through the complicated corridor and came to the outside of a secret room.

"arrive!"

Zhao Ying stopped and glanced at the room.

Su Xiang glanced at Zhao Ying, hesitated, opened the door and walked in.

There were only two oil lamps burning in the dim room, which looked particularly strange.

When Su Jian'an walked in, he saw a figure sitting among them, with his back to him. But this figure looked vaguely familiar.

who is it?

"Your Excellency, who is it?"

Su Xiang's cloudy eyes stared at this burly figure, and he didn't recognize it for a moment.

At the same time, the figure with his back to Su Jianan slowly turned around, revealing the familiar look of a middle-aged man.

At this moment, Su Jian'an suddenly shrank, as if seeing something unbelievable and shocking, his whole body almost trembled.

[To be honest, I have been reading books recently to catch up on updates. I can switch sources and read aloud with many sounds. It can be used on both Android and Apple. 】

"you you……"

"What? Su Xiang doesn't recognize me anymore?"

Emperor Zhao sat on a chair, looked at Su Jian'an calmly, and spoke.

At this moment, Su Jianan was trembling all over and staring at the person in front of him.

His Majesty?

Emperor Zhao? !

Hasn’t Your Majesty already...

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty..."

Su Jianan's voice trembled and he couldn't believe it: "You, are you still alive?"

"Yes, I am still alive."

There was a hint of sigh in Emperor Zhao's tone: "I thought I was dead, but I didn't expect..."

Su Jianan froze on the spot, staring blankly at Emperor Zhao in front of him. With that familiar appearance and familiar temperament, he was clearly His Majesty!

Your Majesty... is not dead?

At this moment, even Su Jian'an, who was as steady as an old dog, felt an uproar in his heart.

After a moment, he fell to his knees with a plop: "Old, old minister, pay homage to Your Majesty!"

"..."

Streets, alleys.

Li Beifeng leaned at the entrance of the alley and glanced behind it.

Not far over there, there is a mansion. Near the mansion, there are many masters hiding around.

"I didn't expect that you would end up together?"

A chuckle came to his ears. Li Beifeng turned his head and saw a delicate and pretty face.

She looked at him with a half-smile.

"No!"

Li Beifeng shook his head gently.

"Then what's going on?"

The girl followed his gaze and glanced at the mansion behind her, with a smile in her eyes: "Didn't you break up your friendship and become old friends from now on? Why are you involved together again now?"

Li Beifeng glanced at her, "Isn't this what you want to see?"

"Yes!"

The girl nodded, and then asked a little curiously: "Tell me, what's going on?"

Li Beifeng looked a little lazy: "I don't want to say it."

The girl bit her lower lip lightly, a hint of resentment appearing on her face. But soon, she rolled her eyes and smiled: "If you didn't tell me, I would have guessed..."

"Emperor Zhao wakes up. If nothing else happens, you should have made some kind of deal with him, right?"

Zhou Qiuning touched her chin and said thoughtfully: "Now that Emperor Zhao is in your hands, he can't escape your grasp. This means that he doesn't have many bargaining chips with you." Zhao Ying is one of them. …”

Thinking of this, Zhou Qiuning's eyes lit up slightly: "If I guess correctly, the content of your collusion is probably related to Zhao Ying?"

Li Beifeng glanced at her and said angrily: "That's cooperation, what kind of collusion? How ugly?!"

"Is not it?"

Zhou Qiuning smiled brightly: "The dignified former emperor of the Great Zhao Dynasty cooperates with you, the prince of the Northern Qi Dynasty. Isn't that collusion?"

As she said that, she walked up to Li Beifeng, looked him up and down, and then said, "I have a hunch that it's not that simple between you and her!"

Li Beifeng glanced at her but said nothing.

"I also know a secret about her, do you want to know?"

Zhou Qiuning suddenly approached Li Beifeng and said playfully: "Is this related to you?!"

Something to do with him? !

Li Beifeng's heart skipped a beat. Looking at the flawless face in front of him with a slightly playful and evil smile, he was moved!

Even though he knew that Zhou Qiuning was very likely to lie, Li Beifeng was still slightly moved when Zhao Ying was mentioned about things related to him.

At this moment, a fierce murderous aura struck.

The two of them turned back almost at the same time, and at the end of the alley, a man dressed in white appeared.

He was staring at the two of them coldly.

The moment he saw Zhao Ying appear, Li Beifeng subconsciously felt guilty and wanted to distance himself from Zhou Qiuning.

However, Zhou Qiuning moved closer to Li Beifeng as if on purpose. The next second, she was directly next to Li Beifeng's ear.

At such a close distance, Li Beifeng could even smell the faint fragrance coming from her body.

But then, the killing intent in the air became more and more obvious!

Even the temperature dropped sharply.

Li Beifeng didn't dare to turn his head, and out of the corner of his eye he caught sight of the white clothes, which were as cold as frost.

Terrified.

"She's jealous!"

At the same time, Zhou Qiuning leaned into Li Beifeng's ear and whispered softly, with a slightly naughty and playful tone.

Immediately, she retreated to distance herself from Li Beifeng, glanced at Zhao Ying who was not far away, then glanced at Li Beifeng with a smile, and said meaningfully: "Then, shall I wait for you?"

After saying such inexplicable words, Zhou Qiuning turned and left.

Li Beifeng was left standing there, still not understanding what she meant?

Wait for him?

When do you have to wait?

At the same time, as if he noticed something, Li Beifeng turned around and saw Zhao Ying approaching with an expressionless face.

"you……"

Li Beifeng was about to speak, but found that Zhao Ying turned a blind eye and walked past him coldly.

As if he didn't exist.

Li Beifeng suddenly came to his senses.

Zhou Qiuning... she is deliberately stirring up trouble!

Did she do it on purpose? !

Thinking of this, Li Beifeng looked at the leaving figure of Zhao Ying in white again, thoughtfully.

Is she really jealous?

This facial expression seems to be real?

Thinking of this, for some reason, Li Beifeng's mood suddenly improved a lot.

On the other side, somewhere in a courtyard.

Zhao Ying, dressed in white, sat on the roof, looking at the scenery of the capital in the distance.

Not long after, there was sudden movement behind him.

Then, Li Beifeng climbed up from the side, walked to her side, and sighed: "It's so high, I'm a little afraid of heights!"

Zhao Ying turned her head slightly, her eyes were unkind, and she gave him a cold look: "What are you doing here?!"

The tone was cold and without any emotion.

There was even a vaguely angry tone.

have to!

I’m really jealous!

If it had been in the past, Li Beifeng might not have been able to do anything to her.

But Li Beifeng is different now. After his endless journey in this direction, he has mastered the true meaning of life.

shameless!

Li Beifeng sat down next to her and said matter-of-factly: "I'm looking for you!"

Zhao Ying glanced at him coldly and subconsciously moved a step to the side.

However, as soon as she took a step forward, Li Beifeng came closer. If she moved again, Li Beifeng would move closer...

"What do you want to do?!"

Zhao Ying stared at him coldly, with a bit of unkind murderous intent in her eyes.

It seems that he will take action at any time.

"I want to talk to you and explain what happened just now..."

Li Beifeng ignored her murderous intent and said to himself: "She just said that on purpose just to make you jealous!"

Zhao Ying said nothing and stared at him coldly.

"She knows about our relationship, so..."

Zhao Ying interrupted him coldly: "We have no relationship!"

"Okay, just pretend we have nothing to do..."

Li Beifeng spread his hands: "She came here to stir up trouble on purpose. Didn't you realize that she always deliberately provokes you? She said she wanted to wait for me just now, but she was actually making it up..."

To deal with a woman like Zhao Ying, you have to take the initiative to explain.

Otherwise, given her character, she would definitely disdain to understand the truth of these things, and would only keep things in her heart, and then secretly hold a grudge...

She even holds a grudge better than Su Yi!

Li Beifeng couldn't help but sigh. He had to say that Su Yi was similar to her in many aspects, but at the same time, she was not as sensible as Su Yi in many aspects.

Zhao Ying stared into Li Beifeng's eyes, still expressionless and cool.

After a moment, she turned back and stopped looking at him.

Li Beifeng looked at her fair and beautiful side face quietly and sighed softly: "Don't be angry."

"I am not angry!"

she said coldly.

You're angry on your face, but you still say you're not angry?

Li Beifeng wanted to laugh, but he held it back.

He sighed softly: "I have nothing to do with her, absolutely not..."

Just when Li Beifeng wanted to explain again, Zhao Ying suddenly turned her head and stared at him, her bright eyes suddenly a little cold.

"What, what's wrong?"

Li Beifeng was startled, what happened?

"That night a few days ago?" She said expressionlessly.

some days ago?

That night?

Li Beifeng was still a little confused for a moment. Which night?

But soon, looking at Zhao Ying's cold beautiful eyes, Li Beifeng thought of something.

...That night at the restaurant, Zhou Qiuning kissed him?

That time Zhao Ying happened to see him? !

"Then, she did that on purpose!"

Li Beifeng felt a little guilty, but still explained: "She knew you were there, so she deliberately provoked you..."

While explaining, Li Beifeng felt that something was not right.

Did she take the initiative to ask?

Doesn't this mean that she cares about this matter?

Thinking of this, Li Beifeng smiled a little more on his face and looked at her.

When Zhao Ying saw this, there was a hint of shame and anger in her cold eyes. She turned around again and said coldly: "You don't need to explain to me, I don't care what your relationship is with her."

Yes, after asking all the questions, he still said he didn’t care.

What a tough mouth!

However, despite his harsh words, Li Beifeng could feel that the coldness emanating from Zhao Ying beside him was much less.

He didn't seem to resist Li Beifeng's approach.

He was in a good mood. He leaned back, put his hands under his head, and lay on the roof tiles. He looked relaxed and glanced into the distance.

Not far away is the Jokhang Palace, magnificent and solemn.

It's hard to imagine that the two of them would reunite again after a few months, sitting together and watching the sunset again.

What about the future?

Li Beifeng was slightly confused.

If the plan can be followed, the hatred between the two countries can be completely resolved and reconciliation will be as good as before.

Then he and her...

Having said this, Li Beifeng turned back and looked at her side face quietly.

Under the rays of the setting sun, her fair skin glowed with a golden sheen.

Very beautiful!

Heartwarming.

Zhao Ying seemed to notice some strange gaze, and did not look back, still looking ahead quietly.

But on that fair cheek, there was a flash of unnaturalness.

"you say……"

At this moment, Li Beifeng suddenly remembered something and glanced not far away: "Xiang Su, can he agree?"

Zhao Ying was silent and glanced not far away: "He will."

"He is the most loyal minister to my father, and he was promoted by my father."

Zhao Ying looked at the direction of the distant palace with her beautiful eyes and said calmly: "On that day, Zhao Jing plotted to kill his father. Prime Minister Su was extremely angry. However, due to the stability of the country, Prime Minister Su finally endured it for the sake of the big plan!"

Li Beifeng was thoughtful, as if he had thought of something, and suddenly a trace of worry appeared in his heart. He glanced at her and hesitated to speak.

In the end, Li Beifeng shook his head and said nothing more.

At present, all the situations are still under his control, and his worries are a bit unnecessary. It must be that he is overthinking, right?

"Then we must prepare well!"

Li Beifeng glanced at her: "What are you going to do?"

The next plan is to depose Zhao Jing, support Zhao Ying to ascend the throne, and take control of the Zhao Dynasty.

Emperor Zhao came to see Su Xiang today because of this matter.

As for how to abolish Zhao Jing, this requires long-term planning.

Zhao Ying's face was expressionless, as if she had a plan in mind: "I will treat him how he treats my father!"

Li Beifeng was thoughtful.

Immediately afterwards, Zhao Ying suddenly stood up.

"Where are you going?"

Seeing that she was about to leave, Li Beifeng asked quickly.

Zhao Ying glanced back at him, "Go and get ready!"

Immediately, she jumped up and jumped off the roof.

The figure landed lightly on the ground and then quickly disappeared.

Li Beifeng looked at her back blankly, and sighed softly after a while.

Has her Qinggong reached perfection?

At least for now, Li Beifeng's strength has barely reached the top level. But in terms of Qinggong, it is still slightly inferior.

"It seems that I have to find my mind to ask for advice later!" Li Beifeng pondered.

Although Xinyi's martial arts is average, he does have unique experience and skills in light kung fu. They were all born to the same parents, so she can't be as good as Li Beifeng, right?

Night falls.

Jokhang Palace.

"Your Majesty, the order has been conveyed. We have set up a dragnet in the palace. We are just waiting for him to come and take him down to avoid future troubles!"

He Jing's eyes were shining with a bit of fiery gaze.

He hated Li Beifeng with all his heart.

At the beginning, Li Beifeng had a close relationship with His Highness and took away his position beside His Highness.

Then, he was ordered by His Highness to eradicate Li Beifeng, but he fell into the trap and fell into his hands. He suffered a lot and was tortured. Fortunately, He Jing did not give up and was eventually rescued by His Highness.

Now, it's finally time for him to take revenge!

Prince of Northern Qi? !

Are you having an affair with me, the Empress of Jokhang? !

This time, let me see how you can run away? !

The night was silent, and the moonlight outside the window illuminated Zhao Jing's slightly ferocious and excited eyes.

In the main hall, Zhao Jing had an expressionless face and glanced at the night outside the window, his eyes showing no emotion.

Then, he calmly looked at He Jing in front of him and said silently: "Would you like to play chess with me?"
