Chapter 489(1/3)
Night falls.
The Dazhao Palace was shrouded in night and fell into silence.
There are imperial guards patrolling everywhere in the palace.
In the quiet environment, the entire palace was covered with a layer of solemnity.
At this moment, under a high wall in the palace, two figures stood quietly in the darkness.
"Is this the time you said?"
Li Beifeng glanced at Zhou Qiuning beside him.
Zhou Qiuning asked calmly: "What if it is?"
Li Beifeng didn't say anything, but turned around and walked through the alley beside him, avoided the imperial guards, and came behind a high wall.
Within the high wall is where Zhao Jing is placed under house arrest.
Li Beifeng stopped and glanced at her again: "Do you know what the charges are for trespassing the palace?"
"Isn't you there?"
Zhou Qiuning looked at Li Beifeng with a smile: "Aren't you the guardian of the Qintiansi?"
Li Beifeng had no expression on his face: "The guardians of the Qintian Department must not trespass the palace!"
"Then I have nothing to do!"
Zhou Qiuning waved his hand helplessly: "I've come here, I'm afraid it's too late to regret it now, right?"
Li Beifeng still looked at her expressionlessly.
Zhou Qiuning seemed extremely calm. She first glanced around the high wall and put all the secret guards near the high wall into her eyes.
Then, she looked up at the quiet night in the sky.
He whispered: "The imperial guards in the palace will change their guards every two hours. That is the best time for us to sneak in!"
It is obviously unrealistic to force his entry into the Dazhao Palace. Since Zhao Jing is under house arrest, the guardian of him must be extremely strict.
It is not easy to see him.
Hearing Zhou Qiuning's words, Li Beifeng couldn't help but look at her more, and a hint of doubt appeared in his eyes: "How do you know?"
"secret!"
Zhou Qiuning smiled mysteriously, saw Li Beifeng frowning slightly, and glanced at him again: "Want to know?"
Li Beifeng did not answer her question.
Seeing this, Zhou Qiuning smiled indifferently.
There was silence around him, leaving behind the footsteps of the imperial guards patrolling not far away, as well as the faint breaths of the two people in the darkness.
I don’t know how long it took, but the footsteps not far away suddenly became a little more complicated.
"The time is here!"
Suddenly, he heard Zhou Qiuning lowering his voice. When Li Beifeng reacted, he saw her figure disappearing quickly into the darkness.
Almost close to the darkness, his figure completely concealed.
Such strength is beyond the reach of people.
A strange thing flashed in Li Beifeng's eyes, and then he quickly followed.
Taking advantage of the gap in the defense change, it is the best opportunity for the two to sneak in. According to Zhou Qiuning, the time for the defense change is enough for the two to sneak in quietly.
However, Li Beifeng was negligent after all!
When the defense is replaced, the high wall is in a short period of defensive emptiness.
It was also at this moment that the figures of the two almost disappeared from their original positions.
However, when Li Beifeng approached the high wall and was about to sneak in, he saw several imperial guards appearing in front of him.
When Li Beifeng saw these imperial guards, these imperial guards also saw Li Beifeng at the same time.
In an instant, all the imperial guards were on guard almost immediately.
"Swish!"
The bright sword aimed at Li Beifeng with a bit of coldness and murderous intent in the imperial guards in the dark.
"Who?!"
When he saw so many imperial guards, Li Beifeng instinctively subconsciously felt something was wrong.
What's going on?
When he turned around and wanted to see Zhou Qiuning, he disappeared.
Where is the person?
After a brief moment, Li Beifeng seemed to realize something.
Being fooled!
...
...
"So it's Protector Li!"
After learning about Li Beifeng's identity, a small leader among the imperial guards waved and asked his subordinates to put away the sword.
Then, the little leader walked to Li Beifeng and looked up and down at Li Beifeng.
Although I learned that the person in front of me was the guardian of the Qintiansi, I was still a little suspicious.
After the young general looked up and down suspiciously, "It's so late, Li's guardian is still in the palace. Is there anything important?"
At night, outsiders appeared in the palace. If they hadn't been afraid of the deterrence of the Qintiansi, they would have taken Li Beifeng long ago.
Li Beifeng glanced at the high wall next to him and said lightly: "I came here for the sake of the eldest princess!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the little leader suddenly felt awe-inspiring and was filled with excitement.
Princess!
As the imperial guard in the palace, I naturally heard about what happened recently.
I heard that the eldest princess was assassinated and her life and death are still unknown.
His Majesty was furious and ordered a thorough investigation of the murderer!
I also heard that His Highness the Crown Prince is the biggest suspect in assassinating the eldest princess...
This is also why His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will be under house arrest in the palace.
So, at this moment, the Dharma Protector Li came here...
"Master Li, are you thinking..."
The little leader looked at Li Beifeng.
Li Beifeng nodded calmly.
The little leader showed a look of embarrassment and shook his head and said, "Protector Li, I will forgive my subordinates for not obeying the order. Your Majesty has an order, and no one can see His Highness the Crown Prince. Protector Li, have he offended?"
Li Beifeng naturally understood this.
He nodded slightly: "Since that's the case, then I'll find another way to disturb him!"
"Master Li is easy to leave!"
“…”
After Li Beifeng's figure disappeared, the little leader breathed a sigh of relief.
At this time, an imperial guard next to him whispered: "Do you want to report this to Your Majesty?"
The little leader glanced at him and said with a serious expression: "Of course!"
"No matter what this guardian Li is doing here, he must report to His Majesty truthfully. If something goes wrong, your life will be unsuccessful!"
“…”
In the quiet night.
As the next round of imperial guards changed their guards, a figure quietly left the high wall.
The figure is strange and blends into the darkness of the sky and the earth, and does not arouse anyone's suspicion.
The figure slowly appeared in the dark place and then walked slowly outside.
However, not long after, she stopped.
A figure stood not far away in front of him.
At this moment, the figure was staring at her coldly.
"Why are you still here?"
To be continued...
