Chapter 727 Entering the Palace Again(1/3)
.
"House arrest?!"
Li Beifeng's expression suddenly changed and he stared at her: "What's going on?"
"She is under house arrest?!"
The girl wrapped up her clothes and shook off the white snow falling on her collar. She looked up without makeup and glanced at Li Beifeng softly behind her hands: "It's a shame she's still carrying your child in her belly. You don't even care about her safety.
Don’t you care at all?”
Zhou Qiuning's words silenced Li Beifeng.
At the same time, anxiety and worry surged into my heart.
After not being able to see Zhao Ying for two or three days, he finally realized that something might have happened.
But now that Li Beifeng's status is sensitive, he doesn't know what happened in the palace.
"what happened?!"
Li Beifeng didn't care about anything else and stared at her quickly: "What do you know? Why is she under house arrest?"
"What exactly is going on?!"
"..."
Listening to Li Beifeng's anxious words and his extremely worried expression at the moment, Zhou Qiuning gradually stopped the smile on her face.
Then, she glanced ahead again.
Not far away, the towering red wall and the majestic palace gate were covered in heavy snow!
"Today, the only person who can put her under house arrest is probably one person..."
Zhou Qiuning turned around and stared at Li Beifeng's face: "Who do you think it could be?!"
Li Beifeng's expression changed slightly as he thought of something: "Emperor Zhao?!"
really!
No wonder things in the past two days were so weird, no wonder the news of Prince Zhaonan’s death was released so easily!
Everything was done by him?!
A sharp coldness suddenly flashed across Li Beifeng's expression.
Why did Emperor Zhao put Ying'er under house arrest?!
What does he want to do?
Or...does he want to regret it?
"The reason?"
Zhou Qiuning glanced at him with a meaningful look: "Don't you think of it?"
Li Beifeng said in a deep and cold voice: "Is Ying'er a threat to him?"
"It seems that he is still reluctant to part with the imperial power in his hands after all!"
He had long expected that Emperor Zhao would regret it, but he didn't expect that this day would come!
Right!
Now that Ying'er has eradicated Prince Zhaonan, once the news is announced, it will definitely cause an uproar in the world, and Ying'er's prestige will surely reach its peak!
At this time, Zhao Ying had enough ability to threaten Emperor Zhao's status!
At this time, Emperor Zhao would indeed be unable to sit still!
"Of course, maybe it's not just this reason!"
Zhou Qiuning glanced at Li Beifeng again, but gently shook her head.
Li Beifeng frowned: "What do you mean?"
"She's pregnant!"
Zhou Qiuning raised the corner of her mouth slightly: "When she enters the palace this time, the news of her pregnancy cannot be concealed at all..."
"How much damage do you think it will cause to the royal family of Jozhao if the news spreads that the majestic Princess Jozhao is pregnant out of wedlock?"
Li Beifeng was startled. Indeed, the news that the eldest princess was pregnant before marriage was enough to shock the world. For the sake of the Jokhang royal family's face, Emperor Zhao might...
"Of course, there may be another reason..."
Zhou Qiuning suddenly stared at Li Beifeng's face. After looking at it for a moment, she said thoughtfully: "Guess, Emperor Zhao, does he know whose child she is carrying?!"
As soon as these words came out, Li Beifeng's face suddenly darkened.
do you know?
The answer is already obvious!
Li Beifeng had revealed his identity before when he rescued Emperor Zhao.
Emperor Zhao was not a fool, he could see the relationship between Zhao Ying and Li Beifeng.
Therefore, it is self-evident who the father of the child in Emperor Zhao's belly is.
Ready to come out!
"How did you know about this?"
.
Li Beifeng seemed to remember something and looked up at her.
Zhou Qiuning rolled her beautiful eyes and said boredly: "I have nothing to do. I went to the palace yesterday and accidentally found out some news!"
"What, what are you going to do next?"
"Enter the palace!"
Li Beifeng spoke in a deep voice.
After learning that the identity of Zhao Ying's unborn child might have been exposed, he couldn't sit still!
If Emperor Zhao knew that the child in Zhao Ying's belly was his, it would be absolutely impossible for Emperor Zhao to let that child survive.
Therefore, Li Beifeng must enter the palace as soon as possible to see Zhao Ying and confirm her safety.
…
It's quiet at night.
The imperial city shrouded in heavy snow was silent.
The Imperial Guards guarding the palace put on thick armor and sweaters, but they were still frozen stiff in the cold wind.
Lines of troops patrolled the imperial city, and occasionally a few whistles were heard.
Under the darkness of night, two figures sneaked into the palace quietly.
Zhou Qiuning was already familiar with how to sneak into the palace.
With her help and their unfathomable light skills, they successfully avoided the eyes of many masters in the palace.
"Where is she being held?!"
In the dark of night, Li Beifeng appeared in front of the corridor of a palace, turned around and asked.
"have no idea."
Zhou Qiuning simply shook her head and waved her hand: "I just heard that she was under house arrest. I haven't found out where she is being held specifically!"
Li Beifeng frowned slightly.
As the eldest princess of Zhao Ying, Zhao Ying cannot be locked up in a prison even if she is placed under house arrest.
Then the only possible place to be imprisoned is in her mansion, or in some palace.
"Let's search separately and meet here when there is news?"
Li Beifeng made suggestions.
Zhou Qiuning didn't refuse, and simply nodded.
As a result, the two men divided into two groups and quietly shuttled through the palace in the silent night.
However, after Li Beifeng searched Zhao Ying's residence and several other residences where he might be imprisoned, he still found no trace of Zhao Ying.
After returning without success, Li Beifeng returned to the original place, only to see that Zhou Qiuning had also returned.
"how's it going?"
"No!"
Zhou Qiuning waved her hands and sighed softly: "I've searched all over the harem... but I haven't found her whereabouts. It's strange..."
Zhou Qiuning was thoughtful and asked doubtfully: "Where can she be put under house arrest?!"
"Could it really be...a heavenly prison?!"
To be continued...
