Chapter 471 Assistance

"Your Highness!"

Outside the capital, somewhere in a military camp.

A figure hurriedly stepped into the military camp.

At this moment, in this military camp tent, Zhao Jing was sitting in it. Although he was sitting, the look on his face finally became a little uneasy.

He frowned slightly, seeming to be thinking about something. The visitor interrupted his thoughts. He raised his head, looked at the visitor, and said in a deep voice, "What's wrong?"

"Your Highness, we have searched all villages and hiding places within a radius of dozens of miles..."

The visitor whispered: "I found nothing."

Hearing this, Zhao Jing's face darkened.

"Nothing? There are so many of you, but you can't even find anyone? What's the use of leaving you alone?"

The visitor was so frightened that he knelt down and said tremblingly: "Your Highness, we have laid a dragnet on the way back to the capital. There are countless spies guarding the intersections on the way back to the capital. Once there is news about the eldest princess, we will know it as soon as possible... …”

Zhao Jing's gloomy expression never faded away, and there was a deep look of worry in his eyes.

"Get down!"

"yes!"

After the visitors left, Zhao Jing, who was sitting in the military camp, could no longer sit still.

Zhao Ying's body was still not found, and Zhao Jing's uneasiness became more intense.

How come there are no corpses?

Who rescued her?

What does the other party... want to do?

A flash of thought seemed to appear in his mind, and Zhao Jing suddenly looked at a guard on the side: "Where is He Jing?"

The guard looked embarrassed and shook his head.

Zhao Jing's heart sank, and an ominous premonition surged into his heart.

In order to deal with Zhao Ying, he almost sent out all the masters around him. As for Li Beifeng, he sent He Jing there. Let He Jing disguise himself as him, and then cooperate with his troops to capture Li Beifeng.

But now, the news over there did not catch Li Beifeng. And He Jing's whereabouts are even more unknown.

Something happened to He Jing!

Zhao Jing looked coldly. If nothing else happened, He Jing should have fallen into Li Beifeng's hands.

he……

At this moment, an incredible idea suddenly appeared in Zhao Jing's mind.

Could it be Li Beifeng who rescued Zhao Ying?

As soon as this idea emerged, Zhao Jing quickly shook his head.

It shouldn't be. According to reports from people below, the person who rescued Zhao Ying was a young man, similar to Li Beifeng.

However, that young man's martial arts were unfathomable and extremely powerful.

Li Beifeng...it is impossible for him to have such skill.

When he was still in Chaoyang County half a year ago, Zhao Jing knew Li Beifeng's strength. Although his kung fu is good, it is far from possible that he has such strength.

Even in just half a year, he would not have made such rapid progress.

That……

Who is that young man?

Also, what is his relationship with Li Wushuang?

Thinking of this, Zhao Jing became increasingly uneasy.

The appearance of Li Wushuang also doubled Zhao Jing's sense of crisis.

Li Wushuang wanted to kill him, but he almost died!

If Commander Zheng hadn't appeared in time, I'm afraid...

Zhao Jing became increasingly uneasy when he mentioned Commander Zheng.

He is Zhao Ying's master. Once he knows that something happened to Zhao Ying, I'm afraid...

Zhao Jing could no longer sit still, and he suddenly looked at a general next to him.

The general was young, but had a serious face and was wearing armor. This person is none other than Chen Xi, the general guarding the Lin Army outside the capital.

"General Chen!"

"Your Highness, please speak!"

General Chen cupped his hands and said.

"This time, I'm afraid I need General Chen's help!"

Zhao Jing's eyes fell on him and he spoke slowly.

Chen Xi frowned slightly, with a hint of hesitation on his face: "Your Highness, I'm afraid..."

He was originally from His Highness the Crown Prince's lineage. In the past, his mentor had been grudged by His Highness the Crown Prince. Therefore, Chen Xi was quite close to His Highness the Crown Prince on weekdays.

Only this time, Chen Xi felt a little uneasy.

His Royal Highness found him today, and his purpose may not be simple.

Although I had guessed something in my mind, this matter was indeed too important.

Now that His Majesty is still here, His Highness wants to...

This is tantamount to rebellion!

Therefore, Chen Xi hesitated.

"General Chen has concerns?"

Zhao Jing glanced at him.

Chen Xi said in a deep voice: "Your Highness, this matter is too important. I'm afraid I can't make the decision..."

"General Chen, you are the general of the capital's forest guard army. The capital's forest guard army is all under your command, so why can't you be in charge?"

Chen Xi said: "Although I am in charge of the guarding army, if I don't have His Majesty's will, if I dispatch troops and horses at will, it will be tantamount to treason..."

Chen Xi looked embarrassed: "Your Highness, I'm afraid..."

Zhao Jing stared at him coldly: "General Chen, does he think there is a better choice now?"

"I came to you today because I had a plan!"

Chen Xi was stunned for a moment, then a look of shock appeared on his face, "Your Highness, you..."

"Zhao Ying was hit by my Five Poison Powder and will definitely die!"

Zhao Jing said coldly: "Once she dies, Qin Tiansi will be leaderless. In this imperial city, it is necessary to be alone..."

"Now, I need General Chen's help. General Chen, you have to think about it..."

Chen Xi's eyes suddenly jumped.

This news made his heart sink, and he looked a little shocked.

The eldest princess is dead?

Chen Xi's breathing was a little rapid: "Do you take your highness seriously? Is the eldest princess really dead?"

"After being hit by Wudu Powder, do you think there is still a way to survive?" Zhao Jing sneered.

"Five Poison Powder..."

Chen Xi's eyes jumped a few times quickly.

This is the most frightening poison in the world. Although it is not the most poisonous, it is definitely the most difficult to cure.

No, it has no solution!

Anyone who is poisoned by this poison will definitely die.

So, the eldest princess is dead?

So……

A trace of panic appeared in Chen Xi's eyes, and he guessed the purpose of His Highness the Crown Prince.

Your Highness, he is about to take action!

As a member of His Highness's lineage, Chen Xi had indeed heard some rumors a long time ago that His Highness and the eldest princess were not getting along, and there would be a big conflict between them sooner or later. I just didn't expect that this day would come so quickly.

The eldest princess lost?

Doesn't this mean...

Your Highness has no rivals anymore?

In an instant, countless thoughts flashed through Chen Xi's mind. After quickly weighing the pros and cons, he made a decisive choice.

"My subordinates are willing to follow His Highness and obey His orders!"

"very good!"

A smile appeared on Zhao Jing's face: "When I succeed, I will definitely live up to General Chen's great help!"

…

After a while, Zhao Jing stood up slowly: "I have to go back to the capital now. Someone will naturally come to General Chen with Gu's orders!"

Chen Xi said in a deep voice: "My subordinates are always waiting for Your Highness and will obey your orders!"

Zhao Jing nodded with satisfaction and was escorted out of the military camp by the guards.

After Zhao Jing left, the smile on Chen Xi's face gradually disappeared, his brows wrinkled slightly, and his face became increasingly ugly.

At this time, a subordinate adjutant next to him came forward: "General Chen, you, do you really want to talk to His Highness..."

Chen Xi glanced at him: "Do I still have a choice?"

The adjutant was startled, then became thoughtful.

"If the eldest princess dies, there will be no obstacles in front of His Highness. Your Highness will reach that point sooner or later. If I don't know how to lift up now, what will happen to me then?"

Chen Xi sneered.

Your Highness came to find him today with the intention of forcing him into the palace.

He, Zhao Jing, was the crown prince of Dazhao and the future heir of Dazhao. He had no choice.

"But……"

The adjutant seemed to have thought of something again and said worriedly: "If His Majesty finds out at this time, wouldn't it be..."

"His Majesty?"

Chen Xi squinted his eyes and sneered: "Do you really think your Highness why he dared to attack the eldest princess?"

The adjutant asked doubtfully: "Why?"

"Your Majesty has ignored the government affairs for many years, and now the court has changed!"

Chen Xi's face gradually darkened, and he shook his head with a sneer: "Now this court is no longer what it used to be... His Highness dares to attack the eldest princess, which shows that he does not take her majesty seriously at all. The eldest princess means that this court No one in the hall can stop His Highness anymore..."

Don't you take His Majesty seriously?

This is too rebellious!

However, Zhao Jing's behavior was even more rebellious.

Your Highness, he wants to...

Oh my God!

…

Night gradually fell.

Under the night, the capital city is still particularly prosperous.

Even outside the city, people are still coming and going, and countless pedestrians are entering and leaving the city, which is peaceful.

On the official roads outside the capital, there was an endless stream of businessmen and people traveling from north to south.

At this moment, just above the official road, a figure appeared quietly beside the official road.

It was very low-key and didn't attract anyone's attention.

On both sides of the official road, there are many informants hidden in the crowd.

Their eyes scanned the faces of all passers-by, looking for familiar and suspicious objects.

At this moment, the figure appearing on the official road was none other than Li Beifeng.

After settling Zhao Ying, Li Beifeng left the town and headed to the capital.

Along the official road, Li Beifeng saw many informants among the crowd. Obviously, these people were probably arranged by Zhao Jing.

There are people everywhere on the road along the way to the capital. They were lying in ambush here, and naturally it was Zhao Ying who was standing guard.

Besides that, there is probably him, Li Beifeng.

Fortunately, Li Beifeng was prepared. Before he came, he changed his appearance, put on silk human skin, and became a different person.

Hidden in the crowd, he arrived in the capital smoothly.

There were many more soldiers outside the capital, squatting outside the city gate, checking the passers-by.

Li Beifeng successfully entered the city by hiding his appearance.

After entering the city, Li Beifeng hurried to Qintiansi. He must go to Qintiansi as soon as possible to get the soul-inducing grass and go back to save Zhao Ying's life.

At this moment, the lights outside Qintiansi were brightly lit, and people were constantly coming in and out of Qintiansi.

Obviously, Qin Tiansi was also in chaos today.

Something happened to Zhao Ying, and Qin Tiansi had already received the news.

Almost all the experts from Qintiansi came out. When Li Beifeng approached Qintiansi, he was quickly stopped by people outside the door.

"Who?"

"It's me!"

Li Beifeng took off the mask on his face, revealing his original appearance.

The people outside the door were shocked when they saw it: "Dharma protector?!"

Obviously, they recognized Li Beifeng's identity.

Although Li Beifeng didn't stay in Qintiansi in the capital for a short time, his appearance was noted by the people at the door.

Li Beifeng's appearance immediately made them respectful.

"Dharma Protector, why are you here?"

Li Beifeng said in a deep voice: "Let's go in and talk!"

After that, Li Beifeng stepped into the Imperial Astronomical Office.

Even though Zhao Jing had great connections, the Imperial Astronomical Office was still the safest place.

When he walked into the Imperial Astronomical Office, Li Beifeng soon ran into several familiar faces in the Imperial Astronomical Office.

"Protector, something happened to the princess!"

Someone hurried forward to report, as if he had found a backbone, and was very excited.

"What's going on?"

Li Beifeng frowned slightly. Why are these people so flustered? Looking at everyone's face, they were gloomy, as if something big had happened.

It shouldn't be!

Even if something happened to Zhao Ying, the Imperial Astronomical Office should be operating normally!

"The princess went to the imperial mausoleum today and her whereabouts are unknown. I'm afraid something has happened!"

A constable gritted his teeth and said, "Zhao Jing, attacked the princess!"

"Now the princess is missing, I'm afraid it's very dangerous! Fortunately, you, the guardian, came back in time, you quickly tell everyone how to rescue the princess!"

"Wait..."

Li Beifeng looked at the few people and frowned: "What's going on? Where are your guardians?"

"Cheng, the guardian, went to the imperial mausoleum with the princess today, and his whereabouts are also unknown!"

"He's missing too?"

Li Beifeng suddenly realized what was going on.

The person in charge of the Imperial Astronomy Department in the capital is the guardian Cheng. Now that Cheng is gone, the Imperial Astronomy Department has lost its backbone and is in chaos! .

"There's no rush for this!"

Li Beifeng calmed down, glanced at everyone present, shook his head and said, "The princess is fine for now, you don't have to worry too much."

The other people were stunned, and then someone seemed to think of something, and showed joy on his face: "Does the guardian know the princess's whereabouts now!"

"That's right!"

Li Beifeng's eyes swept across their faces and nodded: "The princess is not in danger for now, you don't have to worry too much."

"That's great!"

Hearing this news, several people were relieved.

The princess is fine, that's great!

Today, when they learned that the princess was attacked in the imperial mausoleum, almost all the masters of the Qintian Division came out to rescue the princess.

However, when they arrived, they only saw corpses on the ground, and did not see where the princess went.

This news made everyone feel uneasy.

Until now, they heard the guardian say that the princess was fine, and they were relieved.

"Keep this secret for now!"

Li Beifeng glanced at them and said in a deep voice: "Now, I need you to do something very important..."

Zhao Ying is fine now, but Zhao Jing is ambitious and I'm afraid he has big plans.

This is the best time for him to take action against Qin Tiansi, so we have to be on guard.

"All of you should be careful next time. In addition, you have to do a few things..."

"..."

After settling everyone down, Li Beifeng came to a courtyard somewhere in Qin Tiansi.

This is a farmland.

Not long after, Li Beifeng found the soul-guiding grass planted in the farmland.

"Here!"

Seeing the soul-guiding grass, Li Beifeng's eyes lit up.

He quickly picked the soul-guiding grass and carefully put it away. Then, he turned around and left the farmland.

The soul-guiding grass was in hand, and he had to go back to save Zhao Ying. The process was so smooth that Li Beifeng was a little surprised.

However, after taking the soul-guiding grass, Li Beifeng did not rush to leave Qin Tiansi.

Now that the Qintian Division has no guardian, and the whereabouts of the eldest princess are unknown, it has become a mess without a backbone. At this time, it is easy to suffer external attacks.

Li Beifeng is the guardian of the Qintian Division, although he is only a nominal guardian. But his appearance represents the will of the eldest princess.

Therefore, his arrival gave the entire Qintian Division a shot in the arm, allowing everyone to calm down.

After stabilizing the Qintian Division, Li Beifeng changed his appearance again and left the Qintian Division quietly.

However, when Li Beifeng left the Qintian Division and planned to leave the city.

Not long after, he felt someone following him.

Being targeted?

Li Beifeng's heart sank.

Something is going to happen!
