Chapter 290 The Princess' Purpose

The smile on Murong Die's face stiffened a little. Read

Li Beifeng's reaction was beyond her expectation.

She stared at Li Beifeng, as if trying to see whether he was serious or joking.

However, Li Beifeng also had a smile on his face and spoke in a relaxed tone.

For a moment, she couldn't tell.

She squinted her eyes slightly and smiled; "So... Mr. Li is not free tomorrow?"

"I am indeed not free during the day tomorrow!"

Li Beifeng did not lie, he was indeed not free during the day tomorrow.

The princess is still waiting for him tomorrow.

"Then... what about tomorrow night?"

Murong Die continued to ask.

"Tomorrow night..."

Li Beifeng looked up and down at Murong Die in front of him: "It's hard to say tomorrow night..."

"So, Mr. Li is free tomorrow night?"

Murong Die smiled brightly.

"So... Miss Murong, is there anything?" Li Beifeng asked cautiously.

Murong Die smiled and said, "It's nothing important, but I do have some questions. I want to find a time to have a good discussion with Mr. Li..."

"Is that so..."

Li Beifeng nodded, not quite understanding, "Then...if I'm free, I'll definitely keep the appointment."

"Then it's settled!"

Murong Die suddenly threw a coquettish glance at Li Beifeng.

This glance was shy and beautiful.

Then, she suddenly stepped forward and handed something to Li Beifeng.

"Then, I welcome Mr. Li to come anytime..."

Murong Die turned and left.

The pleasant rouge fragrance in the air gradually dissipated, and Li Beifeng gradually retracted his sight until Murong Die's figure disappeared.

He lowered his head and glanced at what Murong Die handed him.

A small note.

There was an address on the note.

Her address?

Li Beifeng pondered for a moment, and then a meaningful smile appeared on his face.

This courtesan of Qingxianglou...is not simple!

Li Beifeng's refusal was so obvious just now, but she still insisted.

Even, her tone was ambiguous, as if she was deliberately seducing him...

What does this courtesan want to do?

Is she up to something?

After thinking for a while, Li Beifeng smiled slowly again.

If he had time, he would go and see what this courtesan wanted to do.

...

Chaoyang County.

Qintian Division.

Not surprisingly, the defense of Qintian Division has become more stringent.

Since the incident two days ago, the entire Qintian Division has activated the most stringent precautions.

Not only that, a large number of masters have been mobilized from other bases.

When Li Beifeng arrived at the Qintian Division base, he clearly felt that the atmosphere of the entire base had become much more tense.

The defense outside the door was guarded in turns throughout the day, and almost no mosquito could fly in.

Fortunately, as the guardian of Qintian Division, Li Beifeng easily stepped into the base after showing the token.

Not long after Li Beifeng arrived at the base, he saw a familiar figure at the edge of the city defense.

"Protector?!"

At the edge of the city defense, a constable from the Imperial Astronomical Service was looking at Li Beifeng with excitement.

Then, he walked over quickly.

Li Beifeng took a look and found that the man in front of him was the constable who was fooled and used by him last time, whose name was Lin Ning.

"Protector, you are back?"

Li Beifeng nodded slightly and glanced at him: "What are you doing?"

"The princess ordered us to strengthen the defense of the base to prevent the rebels from the major sects from attacking again..."

Li Beifeng nodded slightly, and thought of something, and asked: "Where is the princess now?"

"Young Master... should be in the House of Representatives..."

Lin Ning thought for a while: "I seem to have seen several other protectors called away by the princess before!"

"Okay, then you do your best, I'll go find the princess first!"

Li Beifeng patted his shoulder and turned away.

Lin Ning was left standing there, his face full of excitement.

The guardian really hadn't forgotten him, his future was bright...

...

Following the memory in his mind, Li Beifeng successfully arrived in front of the House of Representatives.

As soon as he approached and stepped into the hall, Li Beifeng heard several voices coming from the hall.

Then, Li Beifeng saw several more figures.

In the hall, the eldest princess, still dressed in white, was sitting quietly behind the screen in the hall.

Her figure could be vaguely seen.

And outside the screen, there were several figures standing.

Among these figures, Li Beifeng still had some impression.

The few people in the front of the crowd were the other guardians of Qin Tiansi.

Those behind them seemed to be the backbone members of Qin Tiansi.

At this moment, a guardian bowed and was reporting something.

"Princess, we have already tracked down and captured many of the rebels from various sects. However... the owner of Ruyi Tower, the great elder of Zhengyi Sect, the palace master and guardian of Tianhai Palace... all of them are missing..."

"I'm afraid they have already left the county city..."

"..."

There was no sound from behind the screen.

The atmosphere was a bit dull.

Everyone else was silent.

This time, their Qintian Division suffered heavy losses and their reputation was almost ruined.

The person who fell into the hands of their Qintian Division actually ran away!

They actually rescued everyone right under their noses.

This was undoubtedly a slap in the face for all of them.

This also meant that the status of their Qintian Division was greatly impacted.

After this incident, countless people in the court began to criticize Qintian Division. The impeachment memorials flew into the palace like snowflakes.

In order to make up for the loss this time, they had almost sent out all the masters of Qintian Division, and even dispatched local government offices to cooperate in the operation.

Although they also captured many disciples of major sects... but this was far from enough.

Without capturing the key figures of major sects, they could not control the major sects.

For their Qintian Division, this was a failure.

When the leaders of the major sects returned to their respective sects, it was almost impossible to take action again.

This also meant that the game they had planned for so long was completely declared a failure!

At this time, everyone had a dull face and no one spoke.

Finally, after a long silence, the beautiful voice of the eldest princess came from behind the screen.

"I know!"

The voice was cold and emotionless.

"Everyone, go down!"

The others looked at each other, all a little uneasy.

The princess...what's her reaction?

Why didn't she convict them?

What is the princess going to do...

For a moment, everyone was uneasy.

But at this moment, the princess had already given the order, so they could only retreat first.

Soon, the people in the hall dispersed and became quiet again.

Li Beifeng looked behind the screen, hesitated for a moment, and walked forward.

"You're here?"

As soon as Li Beifeng approached, the eldest princess' voice came from behind the screen.

Li Beifeng was stunned: "How do you know it's me?"

No answer to this question.

Then, there was a movement behind the screen.

Not long after, the eldest princess came out from behind the screen and appeared in front of Li Beifeng.

The white clothes were like snow, and the beautiful eyes under the veil looked at Li Beifeng calmly.

Under such a gaze, Li Beifeng was somewhat unaccustomed...

Just last night, there was some...inappropriate relationship between the two of them.

This made Li Beifeng unable to look at the princess calmly.

"Come with me!"

However, the princess did not say much to Li Beifeng.

She turned and walked in one direction.

Li Beifeng was stunned for a moment and followed.

Along the way, the princess in front of her did not speak from beginning to end.

Li Beifeng followed her, staring at the princess's back, thinking about why she called him over.

Where was she going to take him?

While Li Beifeng was thinking about it, the princess in front suddenly stopped.

Then, Li Beifeng also noticed where they were.

Dungeon?

Why did she bring him to the dungeon?

Li Beifeng was still in a daze, and the princess had already stepped into the dungeon first.

Familiar place, familiar environment.

Li Beifeng looked at the princess again, with a little bit of guilt in his eyes.

After all, the release of the people from the major sects had a lot to do with him.

In other words, the current situation of the Qintian Division was almost caused by him.

Of course, Li Beifeng knew that even if he hadn't fanned the flames and let the people from the major sects go.

The situation of the Qintian Division would not be much better than it is now.

At this time, the princess stopped again.

Li Beifeng's ears suddenly heard several screams.

This is...

Li Beifeng couldn't help but look in the direction of the sound, and saw that not far in front of him was an interrogation room.

At this moment, several people were being held in the interrogation cell.

Those people were tied to the rack, their clothes were ragged, worn out, and in a mess.

The marks left by the punishment on these people were all over their bodies, which was shocking.

Next to the interrogation room, there were several ferocious jailers, holding whips and staring at them.

The screams of these people were even a little weak, and they were obviously tortured for a long time.

Seeing this scene, Li Beifeng's pupils suddenly shrank.

He recognized the imprisoned people.

These people were all disciples from various sects who participated in the Jianghu Conference this time.

Li Beifeng suddenly turned his head and looked at the princess beside him.

The princess looked calm, slowly turned her head, glanced at him, and said lightly: "Do you recognize them?"

"What do you mean?" Li Beifeng narrowed his eyes slightly.

The princess did not answer his question.

Instead, she stepped forward and stepped into the interrogation room.

The jailer in the interrogation room saw the princess coming and bowed and said: "Princess!"

The princess nodded lightly, looked back at Li Beifeng again, and said lightly: "Why? Don't you dare to come in?"

At this moment, Li Beifeng seemed to understand something.

She... is forcing him!

Forcing him to stand in line!

Li Beifeng's eyes suddenly became a little cold, he stared at the princess in front of him... She really didn't have such a kind heart.

She is plotting against me!

However, the princess seemed to have anticipated Li Beifeng's reaction. She stared at him calmly, without much emotion.

Li Beifeng was silent.

After the two looked at each other for a while, Li Beifeng slowly stepped forward and entered the interrogation room.

At this moment, the people tied to the rack also slowly raised their heads.

When their eyes fell on Li Beifeng, they were slightly stunned!

They recognized Li Beifeng!

Then, they saw the eldest princess next to them, as if she had thought of something.

Their eyes suddenly widened.

Then, their eyes gradually became angry, almost wanting to eat people.

"You... it turned out to be you..."

"You are the traitor hidden among us!"

"You are actually a running dog of the court..."

"..."

Several people showed extremely angry expressions on their faces.

Their eyes were fierce, as if they wanted to eat Li Beifeng.

Li Beifeng ignored them, but turned around and stared at the princess beside him, with a slightly cold tone: "Are you satisfied?"

"No!"

The princess' eyes fell on one of them, and she said lightly: "This man is called Duan Xilang, an inner disciple of the Zhengyi Sect. He has the lives of many detectives in my Qintian Division..."

"You lackeys of the court, all deserve to die!"

Duan Xilang stared at the princess in front of him fiercely.

Of course he knew who the woman in front of him was.

But... he didn't care at all.

In the past, the court implicated and killed his parents, and he escaped by luck and saved one. Since then, he and the court have been irreconcilable.

"One day, I will kill all of you court running dogs, including you..."

Duan Xilang suddenly stared at Li Beifeng: "I didn't expect that you were a traitor ambushed by the court next to the leader... Yang Yu is really blind to befriend someone like you..."

The princess didn't seem to hear what this person said at all, but turned back to look at Li Beifeng: "He killed many of my Qintiansi constables, damn it!"

Their eyes suddenly widened.

Then, their eyes gradually became angry, almost wanting to eat people.

"You...it turned out to be you..."

"You are a traitor hidden among us!"

"You are actually a running dog of the court..."

"..."

The faces of several people showed extremely angry expressions.

The eyes were fierce, almost wanting to eat Li Beifeng.

Li Beifeng ignored them, but turned around and stared at the princess beside him, with a slightly cold tone: "Are you satisfied?"

"No!"

The princess' eyes fell on one of them, and she said lightly: "This man is called Duan Xilang, an inner disciple of the Zhengyi Sect. He has the lives of many detectives in my Qintian Division..."

"You lackeys of the court, all deserve to die!"

Duan Xilang stared at the princess in front of him fiercely.

Of course he knew who the woman in front of him was.

But... he didn't care at all.

In the past, the court implicated and killed his parents, and he escaped by luck and saved one. Since then, he and the court have been irreconcilable.

"One day, I will kill all of you court dogs, including you..."

Duan Xilang suddenly stared at Li Beifeng: "I didn't expect that you were a traitor ambushed by the court next to the leader... Yang Yu is really blind to befriend someone like you..."

The princess didn't seem to hear what this person said at all, but turned back to look at Li Beifeng: "He killed many of my Qintiansi's detectives, damn it!"
