Chapter 437: Revenge for the Murder of His Father

Second floor.

When Li Beifeng went downstairs, he happened to run into Lu'er standing at the stairs.

As a maidservant beside the Crown Princess, Lu'er followed the Crown Princess from Beizhou and was the most trusted person beside the Crown Princess.

When Li Beifeng went downstairs, Lu'er's eyes fell on him and looked him up and down.

"Is there something wrong?"

Li Beifeng asked subconsciously.

There was an indescribable sense of guilt in his tone.

Guilty?

Probably.

Thinking of what happened just now, Li Beifeng did feel a little guilty.

However, Lu'er obviously didn't see it. She was just very curious, curious about Li Beifeng's identity.

Who exactly is this Mr. Li?

Lu'er tilted her head, and a hint of doubt appeared in her eyes.

She had heard before that Mr. Li had a good relationship with His Highness, and heard that His Highness valued Mr. Li very much.

But, when did Mr. Li become so close to the young lady?

Lu'er was puzzled.

She still remembered that when Mr. Li first met the young lady, it was His Highness who sent him to treat her.

They had only met a few times, so why did the young lady meet him alone so many times?

Others didn't know, but Lu'er knew it very well. The young lady was not sick at all, she was... pretending!

Thinking of this, a strange color appeared in Lu'er's eyes.

"It's okay..."

She shook her head and glanced behind Li Beifeng: "Where is the young lady?"

"Your young lady was frightened just now and hasn't recovered yet!"

Li Beifeng lied without blinking, glanced at Lu'er, and said: "You go out first, I have something important to say to your young lady later!"

Lu'er hesitated for a moment, but nodded, didn't ask any more questions, and turned to leave.

After Lu'er left, Li Beifeng stood on the balcony on the second floor, watching Lu'er leave the room and close the door.

In the whole building, only Li Beifeng and Xie Wan'er upstairs were left.

Li Beifeng looked back and took in the scenery of the entire East Palace through the window beside him.

The East Palace is very large and the paths are very complicated. Even though Li Beifeng has been here several times, he has barely remembered the general route of the East Palace.

In a towering courtyard not far from Li Beifeng's sight, his eyes stayed on the courtyard and pondered for a long time.

There is Zhao Jing's bedroom.

Near the courtyard, there are countless masters hiding in the dark, protecting the safety of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

It is difficult to forcibly assassinate Zhao Jing!

Unless masters of the level of Li Wushuang and Li Suyi take action personally, there is a chance. Even they must sneak in quietly.

Once discovered, it is difficult to get away!

Of course, Li Wushuang may be an exception.

After hearing a lot about Li Wushuang's deeds in the past, Li Beifeng still has no general understanding of her strength!

Her strength should be the ceiling of the world today, right?

Eighteen years ago, Li Wushuang was only in her twenties, and now she is less than forty years old, at her peak.

She was able to kill her way out of the Dazhao Palace back then, so now... how unfathomable is her strength?

Li Beifeng took a deep breath and sighed slightly.

He wanted to kill Zhao Jing, but he needed to plan for a long time. Killing by force was absolutely impossible. Li Beifeng's current strength was still far from enough. Even if he tried to poison him, it would not be so easy.

So, what should he do?

Just as Li Beifeng was thinking, footsteps came from the stairs behind him.

Li Beifeng turned around subconsciously and saw Xie Wan'er walking down the stairs with jade steps.

She was wearing a snow-white Luo skirt, a slim long skirt covering her delicate body, and under the skirt, a pair of white embroidered shoes, and her snow-white ankles could be vaguely seen.

Li Beifeng's eyes slowly moved up along the skirt, and his eyes finally fell on her face.

The beautiful face was as crystal-clear as jade, white as snow without a trace of impurities, and her cheeks were slightly flushed like a rosy cloud.

At this moment, there seemed to be a little bit of shyness in her beautiful eyes, and she was as full as autumn water, revealing a touch of elegant and noble lady temperament, which made people want to conquer her.

This is the Crown Princess of the current Dazhao Dynasty!

Even though Li Beifeng had a good concentration, he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment when he saw the appearance and temperament of this Crown Princess.

It was not until Xie Wan'er's slightly ashamed and angry eyes with a bit of murderous intent stared at him that Li Beifeng came back to his senses and quickly retracted his sight.

Xie Wan'er slowly came down from the stairs. At this time, she had regained her calm, but her cheeks were still a little rosy.

She walked slowly step by step to Li Beifeng, stopped, and raised her head slightly.

That exquisite and flawless face was close at hand, she stared at Li Beifeng without speaking.

"Why are you looking at me like that?"

Li Beifeng asked subconsciously.

Xie Wan'er's mouth corners slightly raised, with a bit of sneer: "I want to see if you feel guilty!"

"Why should I feel guilty?"

It's true that Li Beifeng felt guilty.

But he quickly adjusted himself. At this time, he was not the only one who felt guilty, right?

Li Beifeng shook his head and glanced at her: "Don't cry anymore?"

As soon as these words came out, Xie Wan'er's defense was instantly broken.

The momentum that was finally built up, Li Beifeng's words that slightly poked her wounds, immediately made Xie Wan'er's face change slightly.

She bit her lower lip tightly, her eyes filled with resentment. The clenched fists on his sleeves clearly showed an urge to take action.

But in the end, Xie Wan'er endured it.

She knew that the guy in front of her was very powerful. She had already discovered it when she was in Qintiansi last time.

If he started taking action now, she would probably not be his opponent, but would be humiliated by him again.

Therefore, she did not ask for trouble.

She took a deep breath to calm herself down, glared at him, and gritted her teeth: "You are not allowed to tell anyone about today's events... Do you understand?"

"I definitely won't tell anyone. As for you..."

Li Beifeng glanced at her and did not continue, but the meaning was already obvious.

Xie Waner wanted to hit him.

Does she just want to get out?

Can she tell it?

The dignified princess had her naked body exposed by another man. Is this something to be proud of?

Would she still be alive if this spread?

"Don't force me!"

Xie Wan'er gritted her teeth and stared at Li Beifeng, "If you bully me again, I will drag you to death together... If this matter spreads, I will not be able to survive, and you can't even think about it, we will die together!"

Her words frightened Li Beifeng.

"Calm down, don't be impulsive!"

Good guy, she can't be serious!

If she self-destructs, even if Li Beifeng survives, the Jokhang Dynasty may not be able to stay any longer.

I'm afraid if it weren't for him, he would be treated as an adulterer and imprisoned in a pig cage...

"snort!"

Xie Wan'er snorted heavily, and finally felt a little more comfortable when she saw Li Beifeng finally surrendered.

"Tell me, how's it going?"

"What happened?"

"My dad..."

As if thinking of something, Xie Waner's eyes showed a trace of worry and complexity: "What did you find out when you went to Beizhou this time?"

A month ago, Xie Waner entrusted Li Beifeng to go to Beizhou to investigate the cause of her father's death. She didn't expect that Li Beifeng actually went to Beizhou. Unexpectedly, Li Beifeng would come back so soon.

So...did he investigate something?

"This, what should I tell you?"

Li Beifeng thought for a moment and nodded: "I did find something!"

"What?"

Xie Wan'er's heart tightened, and her breathing quickened: "What did you find out?"

Seeing her nervous look at this time, Li Beifeng did not answer her question immediately. Instead, he asked: "What kind of result do you hope it will be?"

Xie Waner was silent for a moment.

What does she hope will happen?

She hopes, but she doesn't!

After a moment of silence, she raised her head and stared at Li Beifeng: "So, what exactly did you find out?"

"I did find out something!"

Li Beifeng nodded slightly: "But I can't confirm it!"

"What's the meaning?"

"Let's put it that way!"

Li Beifeng thought for a moment and said, "Your father's death has something to do with your second uncle, but it has nothing to do with him!"

Xie Wan'er frowned: "What do you mean?"

"What does it mean to have something to do with him? But not to have anything to do with him?"

"It means...your second uncle knows the reason for your father's death. In fact, he already knew about it, but he didn't stop it..."

Hearing this, Xie Wan'er's body trembled, her eyes widened in disbelief, and her tone trembled slightly: "You, you mean, my second uncle, he, he..."

This news caught Xie Waner off guard.

Her second uncle actually knew that her father would die?

Given her position, why didn't she stop him?

Is this still the gentle and elegant second uncle in her impression?

"Yes, was he the one who killed my father?"

Xie Waner looked up at Li Beifeng again. At this moment, the fear in her eyes became more and more obvious.

"That's not true!"

Li Beifeng shook his head: "Your father was not killed by your second uncle, so this matter can be regarded as having nothing to do with him..."

"..."

Li Beifeng's explanation was convoluted, but Xie Waner understood it.

She was silent!

After learning about this, she had already expected something. He lowered his head slightly, with a sad look on his beautiful face.

For her, this news may be unexpected, or it may be expected, but she has never been willing to face it.

After bowing her head in silence for a long time, she spoke again: "Then...who killed my father?"

Li Beifeng looked at her and chuckled: "You already have the answer in your heart, don't you?"

As soon as Li Beifeng finished speaking, Xie Waner's heart tightened. It was as if an invisible hand was holding her heart, making it difficult for her to even breathe.

"He, why would he do that?!"

Xie Waner's voice was filled with sadness and hatred.

She doesn't understand!

Seeing her appearance at this time, Li Beifeng's eyes showed a bit of regret: "Probably, it's just like what you said before! There is a conflict of ideas between your father and him. Your father is alive and has blocked his plan... "

Xie Waner was silent.

Silent, her eyes turned red again.

Only this time, no tears fell.

Her eyes were slightly red and swollen, which made me feel pity for her. There was anger and hatred in those cold, beautiful eyes.

She slowly raised her head and stared at Li Beifeng: "So, was he really the one who killed my father?"

"Zhao Jing killed my father?"

"..."

Li Beifeng hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded: "It's him!"

Even if Li Beifeng was not sure, when he saw Zhou Qiuning appear in Xie's house that night, it had already explained everything.

Xie Yongan and Zhao Jing colluded with each other.

Then Xie Yongrui's death was basically related to Zhao Jing.

What a big chess game!

This Zhao Jing dared to kill even his father-in-law. What on earth did he want to do?

This made Li Beifeng curious.

Hearing Li Beifeng's confirmation, Xie Wan'er's eyes became redder. Her delicate body trembled, and at this moment it was shaky, as if she would fall at any time.

She bit her lower lip tightly, almost biting her lips.

"I, I guessed it was him a long time ago. But, but... I'm not sure. I, I still have a glimmer of hope that he might not be that kind of person, and he won't kill my father..."

Xie Wan'er's face was a little more miserable: "I underestimated him, and I overestimated myself... In his eyes, I'm afraid I'm not even as good as a maid in the mansion. He doesn't take me seriously at all. He married me just for the power of my Xie family..."

"But, but I never expected that he would really kill my father..."

When she said this, Xie Wan'er's tone was already crying.

In the crying tone, there was deep hatred.

She never thought that it would be such a result.

She lived in Beizhou since she was a child, her parents loved her, and her father loved her very much. But she didn't expect that one day, the court would marry her to the capital with a marriage certificate.

In the eyes of others, she became the crown princess, and others envied her.

But... she didn't like it at all.

She didn't like marrying someone she didn't like, nor did she like this strange capital.

What she didn't expect was that on the wedding night, she didn't even see the groom's appearance, and she stayed alone in the empty room.

From that day on, she knew... that she had become a victim.

She was just a victim of the political game between the court and the Xie family!

Her existence was not important.

This made her, who had just had a longing for love, extinguished it completely in an instant.

Then, what hit her even more was... her father was dead!

The father who loved her suddenly died!

And the person who killed him was her husband.

This made Xie Wan'er unacceptable no matter what!

"I hate him!"

Xie Wan'er, with red eyes, slowly raised her head and looked at Li Beifeng at this moment, her voice was cold and scary: "I hate him!"

Li Beifeng didn't speak.

I don't know what to say.

Comfort?

No need!

How can the revenge of killing her father be comforted?

Not to mention, the person who killed her father was the prince of Dazhao, her husband.

Li Beifeng sighed inwardly. She was also a poor person!

Just as Li Beifeng was about to say something, a slightly panicked voice suddenly came from outside the courtyard downstairs.

"Your Highness, why are you here?!"

Your Highness?

As soon as these words came out, Li Beifeng felt a chill on his back.

Zhao Jing is here?

Why is he here?

Why is he here?

Not only Li Beifeng, but even Xie Wan'er, who was immersed in the grief and hatred of her father's murder, was somewhat unexpected at this time.

Why is he here today?

This made Xie Wan'er a little panicked for a while.

This, if Li Beifeng is found here, the problem will be big!

"What should I do?"

Listening to the voice outside, it was obvious that Zhao Jing had come.

It was too late for Li Beifeng to run at this time.

His eyes quickly swept around the room, and then he ran to the third floor without hesitation!

Hide first!
