This is your world

The heavy rain was still pouring down outside the window, and lightning flashed across the dark night sky from time to time, lighting up the entire sky.

Then, there was an approaching "rumbling" of thunder, and the loud thunder made the room tremble slightly. Not far away, the faint sound of children crying could be heard, but the sound was quickly covered up by the heavy rain.

"Actually, I have always had a little doubt!"

Zhou Qiuning sat by the window, staring at the heavy rain at night.

"Tell me, why do we always see the lightning first and then hear the sound when it thunders?"

She turned back slightly, looked at the figure opposite, and chuckled: "Could it be that this sound did not come from this lightning?"

Opposite her, Li Beifeng looked at her coldly and did not speak.

"Why don't you speak?"

Zhou Qiuning raised her eyebrows: "Don't you know either?"

"You think I'm in the mood to discuss this with you?"

Li Beifeng said coldly.

He didn't know what Zhou Qiuning's purpose was. What did she want to do by calling him here?

Reminiscing about old times?

Li Beifeng sneered in his heart.

He didn't think he had anything to talk about with Zhou Qiuning.

"I understand your feelings, but..."

Zhou Qiuning chuckled: "I did it on purpose!"

Li Beifeng's eyes narrowed and he stared at her.

Zhou Qiuning said to herself: "I took advantage of you!"

Li Beifeng said solemnly: "I know."

"you do not know!"

Zhou Qiuning glanced at him: "Not only did I use you to enter the palace and meet Zhao Jing, I also used you to accomplish a big thing!"

At this point, she paused for a moment and raised the corners of her mouth slightly: "Would you like to guess what big thing I have done?"

"I'm not interested in playing charades with you!"

Li Beifeng said expressionlessly.

"You're angry?"

"..."

Zhou Qiu stared at his expression, chuckled and shook his head: "Although I did take advantage of you, since I called you here today, I naturally won't play tricks on you!"

"Xie Wan

She will be fine, and..."

Zhou Qiuning said softly: "I will return her to you intact, how about it?"

Li Beifeng's eyes suddenly condensed, staring at her with a look of disbelief.

"how?"

Zhou Qiuning chuckled: "Why are you looking at me like that?"

"Are you so kind?"

Li Beifeng naturally didn't believe that this woman could be so kind?

"What you said, am I bad?"

Zhou Qiuning glanced at him: "Think about it, when have I ever harmed you?"

Li Beifeng was startled, and then fell into silence.

Indeed, after knowing her for so long, the relationship between the two is very complicated.

This woman seems to be forever in a state of incomprehension. But in fact, from beginning to end, she seemed not to have hurt Li Beifeng.

The only time was not long ago in Sunset City, when she tried to assassinate Li Beifeng.

Other than that, there is no real threat.

But……

Li Beifeng said nothing, even though she had not actually harmed him, nor had she harmed the people around him. But to Li Beifeng, this woman is still dangerous.

People who cannot be controlled always need to be sufficiently vigilant.

"Don't worry, I will return her to you intact. But before doing it again, I am a little curious..."

Zhou Qiuning paused for a moment, with a smile in her eyes: "How did you hook up with her?"

"Why do you think it's a hookup?"

"if not?"

Li Beifeng said calmly: "We are in love!"

At this moment, a look of astonishment appeared on Zhou Qiuning's face. Immediately, he seemed to think of something interesting.

"Hahaha……"

She smiled happily and brightly.

"Both love each other, hahaha..."

She laughed forward and backward, without any image at all.

Li Beifeng looked at her expressionlessly, what's so funny?

"Your answer really surprised me!

Chapter 496 The Wind Rises (Page 2/8), click the next page to continue reading.

"

After a while, she finally stopped laughing, but the smile on her face never dissipated: "So, you have a lot of romantic partners?"

"Is there any problem?" Li Beifeng asked calmly.

"Of course it's no problem!"

Zhou Qiuning shook her head: "But, she is the princess!"

She squinted her eyes slightly: "I didn't expect you to be okay with this?"

Li Beifeng still didn't speak. This woman couldn't speak and he didn't want to answer.

He doesn't like this!

There are no thieves in this world, some are just motivated by sex!

"I have one more question!"

As if she had thought of something, Zhou Qiuning's eyes were somewhat moved as she stared at Li Beifeng up and down, half-smiling but not smiling.

After a moment, she suddenly asked: "Did you and her... happen?"

Li Beifeng glanced at her and said coldly: "Is it important?"

"Very important!"

Zhou Qiuning narrowed her eyes meaningfully: "I want to know how far Zhao Jing has worn this cuckold."

"Ah!"

Li Beifeng sneered: "So what?"

"From your tone, it seems like everything that should have happened has already happened?"

Zhou Qiuning raised her eyebrows.

"I don't want to continue talking to you about these useless nonsense!"

Li Beifeng glanced at her and said, "Where is she?"

"You're still too impatient!"

Zhou Qiuning sighed.

He was not in a hurry, he just didn't want to continue chatting with this woman.

Outside the window, the heavy rain was still falling.

Zhou Qiuning glanced at the night and said softly: "Actually, I called you here today because I wanted you to watch a play with me!"

"play?"

Li Beifeng was stunned.

"A once-in-a-lifetime show!"

She stared at the dots of lights in the distance, raising the corners of her mouth slightly.

"The show is about to begin!"

…

In the capital city shrouded in heavy rain, there was no one left on the streets.

After nightfall, every household goes to bed early

Chapter 496 The Wind Rises (Page 3/8), click the next page to continue reading.

Even in the bustling streets in the past, there were only a few fireworks today.

At the east gate of the capital city, there are still city defense soldiers standing guard on the city wall.

However, the heavy rain today was so heavy that there were far fewer patrols in the city on weekdays.

The heavy rain obscured the sight of the soldiers on the city wall.

Just a few kilometers outside the capital, in the dark night, several figures were approaching silently!

Above the city defense, a figure that looked like a general came to the city wall.

"General!"

The soldier standing guard spoke.

"Is there anything going on?"

the general asked.

"Tell the general, no!"

"Continue patrolling and cheer up!"

"yes!"

"..."

After walking around the city wall, the general didn't find anything wrong. He turned over and went down the city wall again and came to a small room on the side.

Shaking the rain off his body, he sighed.

It's raining really hard. I haven't seen such heavy rain for a long time.

The general returned to the room, came to the table beside him, sat down, and was about to pick up the things on the table.

A figure appeared silently behind him, and at the same time, a sword was pointed at his neck.

"Don't move!"

The general was stunned and did not dare to move further.

But when I heard the voice behind me, it seemed vaguely familiar.

"Sir, who is he?"

"What do you think?"

Hearing this voice, the general's eyes widened and he turned around in disbelief: "It's you? You, what do you want to do?!"

The person holding him hostage behind him turned out to be a little leader under his command.

"Do you know what you're doing? Are you crazy?"

"General, of course I know what I'm doing!"

The little leader looked at the general expressionlessly: "This can only be blamed on General, because you don't know how to praise!"

The general seemed to have thought of something, and his eyes suddenly widened: "Is it you, is it you?"

"General, I've offended you too much!"

Chapter 496 The Wind Rises (Page 4/8), click the next page to continue reading.

As soon as he finished speaking, the little leader slapped the general on the back of the head so hard that he fainted.

The little leader stepped forward and took out a jade talisman from the general's pocket. Then he packed up the things in the room and hid the general. Then, he turned and left the room and came to the city gate.

"Open the door!"

The soldiers guarding the city at the door were stunned and said: "The general has ordered that no one is allowed to enter or exit during the curfew!"

The little leader took out the jade talisman from his arms: "This is the general's order!"

As soon as the few people saw the general's order, they immediately obeyed the order and hurried to open the city gate.

At the same time, several figures appeared on the city wall in the dark night. The soldiers who were originally standing guard had their necks cut before they even reacted.

Night, silent.

The entire east gate city defense of the capital was quietly controlled by defense changes.

Then, several black shadows entered from outside the city silently, in a mighty force.

All of this was concealed in the darkness.

…

royal palace.

Late at night!

But the lights in the imperial study room haven’t gone out yet!

In the room, Emperor Zhao sat at the table and looked down at the memorial in his hand.

Although he had ignored government affairs for many years, some things that happened inside and outside the court could not escape his eyes and ears after all.

Emperor Zhao felt a little uneasy tonight.

He frowned slightly, feeling indescribable.

I just have a vague feeling that something big is going to happen?

He raised his head and glanced out the window. It was still raining heavily outside the window.

It's been raining heavily for a day, which makes people feel depressed.

"Somebody come!"

Not long after, a eunuch came to his side: "Your Majesty!"

"Did anything happen in the palace tonight?"

"Your Majesty, no!"

Emperor Zhao waved his hand: "Okay, go down!"

The eunuch bent down and nodded: "Your Majesty, if you have any instructions, just call me Lao Nu."

After the eunuch retreated, Emperor Zhao still looked at the night outside and remained silent. #

r # Ying'er still hasn't been found!

The people sent out have been there for two days and should have returned, but why has there been no result until now?

And Ying'er...

Ying'er is his favorite daughter and the most capable daughter.

It's a pity that she is a girl and cannot inherit the Dazhao tradition.

Once upon a time, Emperor Zhao had not thought about it, but he finally gave up.

It was set by ancestral precepts and could not be changed by him. Even if he wanted to, the ministers in the DPRK would never allow it, and the people of the world would never allow it.

By the time. I'm afraid it will cause chaos in the world, and the gains outweigh the losses!

Although Jing'er is not outstanding in talent, he is also very ambitious. But no matter what, he is the most suitable candidate.

only……

Emperor Zhao was still a little confused.

Ying'er was assassinated, was it him?

Another figure appeared in Emperor Zhao's mind, and then a look of fear appeared in his eyes.

Li Wushuang!

Why did she appear in the capital at this time?

The Northern Qi Dynasty has been destroyed for almost twenty years, and it should have been buried in the dust long ago. Could it be that she was hatching some plan when she appeared at this time?

Emperor Zhao looked expressionless.

The destruction of Northern Qi was his most proud achievement. Even though he invested a lot of effort, financial and material resources, he finally annexed Northern Qi.

With the territory of Northern Qi, Dazhao no longer needs to worry about threats from the north. However, people all over the world had mixed opinions about his battle, and many people cursed him angrily.

"They are all unruly people!"

Emperor Zhao said coldly: "How could the unruly people know my ambition!"

"Ahem..."

At this moment, Emperor Zhao coughed twice again, his face slightly ugly.

He clutched his chest and took a deep breath.

It seems that the hidden disease is about to recur again!

He looked down at his chest, feeling a little reluctant.

He was injured and left with serious old ailments. All of this is thanks to that woman Li Wushuang.

He almost died at the hands of that woman back then, even though he was later led by Commander Zheng

Chapter 496 The Wind Rises (page 6/8), click the next page to continue reading.

Although he was rescued, he was left with hidden dangers and diseases.

Over the years, he has felt increasingly frail. Because of this, he constantly seeks ways to maintain health.

He doesn't want to die!

As the most powerful and noble person in the world, of course he didn't want to die.

He still has many things to do, he has not yet fulfilled his great ambitions, and he does not want to die.

Therefore, over the years, he has been constantly searching for the way to immortality, searching for famous doctors all over the world, and all the Taoist practitioners in the world who claim to be immortals.

He even took countless pills to maintain his hidden illness.

In the beginning, those pills were indeed effective and suppressed his hidden illness. But as time passed, the effect of those pills gradually became less strong, and then the weight of the pills he took became heavier and heavier.

Thinking of this, Emperor Zhao took a deep breath, turned around and left the imperial study.

In the harem.

The main hall was empty.

Sandalwood filled the hall, and the three Taoist priests were sitting on the futons in the hall.

"His Majesty!"

When Emperor Zhao stepped in, the three Taoist priests stood up and said respectfully.

"No need to be polite!"

Emperor Zhao waved his hand, "I feel a little unwell tonight. Why is that?"

One of the Taoist priests said respectfully: "Your Majesty has been very tired recently and has neglected his practice. Once the practice stops, there will be backlash..."

"That makes sense!"

Emperor Zhao nodded slightly. He was busy dealing with the assassination of Ying'er these days, and indeed he had not practiced for two days.

"Your Majesty, please take care of yourself!"

Another Taoist priest raised his hand and took out a porcelain bottle from his sleeve: "This is a newly developed elixir specially developed for Your Majesty by the poor Taoist. It can relieve your Majesty's temporary emergency."

Immediately afterwards, the eunuch behind Emperor Zhao came forward and planned to test the medicine.

All elixirs that are to be taken by His Majesty must be tested by someone and confirmed to be ok before they can be taken by His Majesty.

However, Emperor Zhao tonight waved his hand: "No need!"

As he said that, he picked up the 'elixir' in the porcelain bottle. The elixir

Chapter 496 The Wind Rises (page 7/8), click the next page to continue reading.

It exudes a somewhat fragrant smell, which is refreshing when you smell it.

"It really is an elixir!"

Emperor Zhao put the elixir into his mouth, and the elixir melted in his mouth.

Soon, Emperor Zhao felt a shock all over his body, and a feeling of relief came to his heart.

As a result of the elixir, he became much more energetic.

"It really is an elixir!"

Emperor Zhao could not help but admire.
