Chapter 500 Father and Son Confrontation
The night was as dark as ink. Google search reading
The whole capital city fell into a deep sleep.
The heavy rain was still pouring down, but now it was late at night, the strong wind gradually stopped, and the lightning that had been roaring in the sky also became smaller.
On a street in the capital, under a white oil-paper umbrella, two figures walked on the street.
The heavy rain fell on the umbrella, and the splashing water made a snapping sound.
Although the two figures shared an umbrella, the atmosphere was inexplicably a little weird.
The umbrella was not big, and the rain would even occasionally wet the clothes.
Finally, one of the figures suddenly stopped.
She turned around and stared at Li Beifeng beside her.
"Do you dislike me?"
Li Beifeng also stopped and glanced back at her: "No."
"What do you mean by this?"
"What do you think?"
Zhou Qiuning's eyes fell on Li Beifeng's half body that had been wet by the rain, and a slight sneer suddenly appeared at the corner of her mouth.
Then, she took a step forward and left the umbrella.
Then, the heavy rain in the sky fell on her body, and soon her thin clothes were soaked by the rain.
She glanced back at Li Beifeng, and there seemed to be some provocation in her eyes.
Facing Zhou Qiu Ning's behavior, Li Beifeng did not react.
He still held the umbrella and looked at her.
Indifferent.
Zhou Qiu Ning gave up!
Perhaps she felt frustrated again, she did not look at Li Beifeng again, turned around and walked forward.
Her delicate body was soaked by the heavy rain, and her originally smooth hair was now wet.
Li Beifeng walked behind her, with a steady pace. The two walked one in front and one behind.
This scene looked extremely strange in the middle of the night.
If someone was not asleep at this moment and saw this strange scene on the street, they would probably be scared to death.
Finally, after an unknown period of time, she suddenly stopped. She raised her head and looked forward slowly.
At this moment, she was already soaked to the point of being unrecognizable, with heavy rain dripping down on her.
The heavy rain in front of her vaguely obscured her vision, and she stood in the heavy rain, motionless, like a statue.
At this time, Li Beifeng's figure also followed and stood side by side with her, also looking forward.
Not far away was the Dazhao Palace.
The towering walls blocked the two of them, and not far away was the heavily guarded imperial guards.
However, today these imperial guards seemed particularly vigilant.
The number of imperial guards was several times more than in the past. These imperial guards were fully armed and vigilantly watched all the movements around them.
Staring at the imperial guards in front, Li Beifeng turned his head and his eyes fell on her.
At this time, Zhou Qiu Ning also happened to look at him slowly, and the two looked at each other.
Silence!
"Are you just going to watch me get wet in the rain alone?"
Zhou Qiu Ning said.
Li Beifeng frowned slightly, but soon relaxed. He said lightly: "It's your own choice.
He didn't let her get wet in the rain, she wanted to get wet in the rain.
He wouldn't stop her, and there was no need to stop her.
"You're right!"
Zhou Qiuning nodded to herself: "It's indeed my own choice..."
It seemed that she was repeating the words, and it seemed that she was metaphorically implying something.
The next second, she suddenly smiled, with a slight smile on her lips.
Then, she snatched the umbrella from Li Beifeng's hand and let go.
The oil-paper umbrella flew away in an instant with the cold wind at night, and soon disappeared into the night.
Li Beifeng, who was exposed to the heavy rain, was soon soaked by his clothes. After a while, he also became a drowned chicken.
Li Beifeng did not react, and watched her movements quietly.
She was a little bit wrong tonight.
After doing all this, Zhou Qiuning seemed a little happy.
"Now, you are the same as me! "
She smiled brightly at Li Beifeng, and for a moment, a trace of innocence seemed to emerge on the girl's face.
It flashed by again and disappeared.
Li Beifeng was not angry, he just looked at Zhou Qiu Ning calmly. He glanced ahead and then fell on her.
"So, you are also involved, right?"
Zhou Qiu Ning's eyes were stunned, and then she laughed again; "You know?"
"Guessed it!"
Li Beifeng glanced at the heavily guarded palace gate in front of him, and it was self-evident.
"You are right, I did participate!"
Zhou Qiu Ning nodded and looked at him again: "So, are you willing to accompany me to watch this show? "
Li Beifeng looked at her, silent, and did not give an answer immediately.
But Zhou Qiuning did not continue to wait for his answer, but took a step and walked towards the gate of the palace.
Li Beifeng looked at her figure, and finally said nothing and followed her.
...
The two figures were soon blocked by the imperial guards outside the palace.
The imperial guards outside the palace were no longer the people Li Beifeng knew before.
Li Beifeng's eyes swept across the faces of these people one by one, his eyes slightly sank.
Everyone has changed!
What this means is self-evident.
At this moment, the palace may have changed. Zhao Jing...really rebelled?
Zhou Qiuning stared at these imperial guards, stretched out his hand into his arms, and then threw a token to the little leader of the imperial guards.
The little leader looked at the token, his eyes suddenly condensed, and then his attitude became respectful: "It turned out to be Miss Zhou!"
Then, the imperial guards let them go.
The two of them entered the imperial city easily.
As soon as he entered the palace, Li Beifeng smelled the blood in the air.
He turned his head suddenly and looked in a certain direction.
In the dim environment, you can vaguely see that the ground not far away is still oozing with blood.
There are bloodstains everywhere on the ground and walls. However, no corpse can be seen.
It seems that a fierce battle has taken place here before, and it has come to an end.
The bloody scene is enough to prove how tragic it was here before.
The heavy rain kept washing the ground, washing away the bloodstains on the ground, but it could not wash away the murderous atmosphere in the air.
As if thinking of something, Li Beifeng suddenly turned around and looked at Zhou Qiuning beside him: "How long have you been preparing for this day?"
Zhou Qiuning smiled: "What do you think?"
Li Beifeng looked up and looked forward: "Did Zhao Jing succeed?"
"I don't know either!"
Zhou Qiuning shook her head slightly and looked forward: "But if nothing unexpected happens, there should be a result now, right?"
Not far away, there was a faint flickering of starlight and flames.
Li Beifeng knew it very well!
Zhao Jing rebelled!
Tonight, he rebelled and tried to usurp the throne!
Li Beifeng, who had long noticed this, was not surprised. The assassination of Zhao Ying failed and failed to eradicate the roots. Zhao Jing was forced into a desperate situation.
The only way he wanted to break the situation was to rebel!
This was his last resort and his only chance.
When Zhou Qiuning brought him to the palace, Li Beifeng had already realized it.
Zhao Jing chose to take action tonight, judging from the current situation. The imperial guards outside the palace have been controlled by Zhao Jing. If that's the case, the palace is probably in danger.
So...
Will he really succeed?
"Aren't you afraid?"
Zhou Qiuning looked at Li Beifeng with a little surprise. She originally thought that he would be afraid or worried after learning that Zhao Jing was going to rebel?
"Once Zhao Jing ascends the throne, he will definitely settle accounts with you. Aren't you afraid?"
"Afraid?"
Li Beifeng did not answer her question.
Zhao Jing's rebellion is actually a good thing for him.
...
In the secret room.
There was no sound.
It was raining heavily outside, but the secret room was extremely quiet.
It was so quiet that it made people feel uneasy.
In this secret room, two figures looked at each other.
The two people have some similarities, especially in their facial features.
Neither of them spoke, and they just looked at each other. The momentum of the two people continued to oppress the air in the secret room, and even the air seemed to stop flowing.
It seemed like a century had passed before Zhao Jing finally broke the silence.
"Father!"
He looked at Emperor Zhao in front of him calmly: "You lost!"
Father lost!
He won!
He finally waited for this day.
But...
Zhao Jing didn't have much joy in his heart.
At this moment, Emperor Zhao gradually calmed down. He stared at Zhao Jing in front of him, his voice slightly cold.
"Is this what you want?"
"This is not what I want!"
Unexpectedly, Zhao Jing shook his head.
If it wasn't for the absolute necessity, he would never have come to this point today.
Usurpation?
This is not what he wants, patricide? Usurpation, he will become an emperor despised by the world. Even if he can change history and change history books, he can't stop everyone's mouth.
This is not the result he wants.
He is the prince of Dazhao, he will be the emperor of Dazhao sooner or later, he doesn't want this...
If there is a choice, why would he come to this point today?
Emperor Zhao lowered his eyes slightly and stared at him: "It seems that Ying'er was indeed assassinated by you."
Now, even if it was just a suspicion, Emperor Zhao already had the answer in his heart.
If he hadn't done it, why would he have come to this point today?
A lot of truths are about to come out.
"I did it!"
Zhao Jing didn't hide it anymore, he didn't need to cover it up anymore. He assassinated Zhao Ying, and he set up a net to get rid of her.
"It's a pity that she ran away!"
A bit of regret appeared in Zhao Jing's eyes.
If Zhao Ying could be eliminated directly at that time, he would never have come to this point today.
One wrong step, every step is wrong!
"Beast!"
Anger appeared in Emperor Zhao's eyes again, "She is your sister, and you actually poisoned your relatives!"
With a light tone, he could be so cruel and kill his sister.
No conscience!
At this moment, Emperor Zhao knew that he had misjudged people!
He was too good at acting, too good at pretending.
"Isn't all this what you want to see?"
Unexpectedly, Zhao Jing seemed very calm.
He looked into Emperor Zhao's eyes. At this moment, he was finally no longer afraid.
In the past, he didn't dare to look into his father's eyes. He was afraid of his father's majesty, and even more afraid of his father's angry and disappointed eyes.
It seemed that his father's eyes had a huge momentum, suppressing him so much that he couldn't breathe.
He was afraid!
He didn't dare!
So, he was in a daze for so many years.
But today, he was finally no longer afraid.
He could finally look his father in the eye.
It turned out that his father was not as scary as he imagined.
He has always been afraid of himself!
He looked at Emperor Zhao calmly: "What I am today, isn't it all caused by you?"
Emperor Zhao's eyes narrowed and he said coldly: "When did I teach you to do such an animal thing?"
"You made me the crown prince, but then you handed Qin Tiansi into her hands."
Zhao Jing looked at Emperor Zhao: "When you did all this, didn't you think that today would happen?"
Emperor Zhao was silent.
He expected it, but he was confident and confident that everything was under his control.
I never thought that one day there would be a backlash!
"I am obviously the Prince of Jokhang, and I am your future successor. But why don't you trust me?"
At this moment, Zhao Jing stared at Emperor Zhao, his tone gradually becoming more excited.
"Yes, I know, you like her more!"
"She is better than me, smarter than me, more capable than me... She is even more suitable to be an emperor than me. I think, if she is a man, I am afraid that the throne will have nothing to do with me in this life, not even you. You won’t even look at me, will you?”
Zhao Jing sneered and spoke.
Emperor Zhao's eyes were cold and disappointed: "Is it just because of this? You have disappointed me so much. I will make you the crown prince. Sooner or later, the country of Zhao will be yours. I never thought that you would do such a cruel thing for your own selfish desires." , something unforgivable is coming!”
"Hahaha……"
As if he heard some funny joke, Zhao Jing suddenly laughed.
"Am I the prince? As the prince, I am really more of a puppet than a puppet!"
Zhao Jing sneered and said: "Do I have any say in the court? She controls the Qintiansi and is famous all over the world. Everyone knows that the eldest princess of Jozhao is unparalleled in the world. She is better than that coward prince. Even Some children among the people know that the prince of Dazhao is a loser who is inferior to women..."
"She controls the government. Who in the court doesn't look at her face? And what about me? I have nothing. I can only live in her shadow and let her control me!"
When he said this, Zhao Jing's expression turned slightly ferocious.
This was the truest thought in his heart, and it was also the first time he spoke his heart out.
He's been hiding it well over the years.
No matter who he faces, he always greets them with a warm smile. Almost everyone in the capital knew that this prince had a good personality. Although he had no ability, he had a good heart.
Everyone even thought that he could become a steadfast king.
He deceived everyone, deceived everyone.
"Why? Tell me why?"
"I am the crown prince of Dazhao, and I am your heir. But why do you give everything to her? Why do you let her suppress and control me? What are you afraid of? Are you afraid of me?"
Zhao Jing stared at the man in front of him.
He doesn’t understand and doesn’t understand!
At this moment, Emperor Zhao seemed very silent.
There was also an indescribable look in his gloomy eyes.
"I didn't expect that you would think so!"
After a long silence, Emperor Zhao suddenly spoke.
His eyes were disappointed, disappointed and sad. At the same time, there is also a bit of regret.
He didn't expect that his most promising son would become so mentally twisted because of jealousy of his sister.
It's his fault too!
He didn't expect that Zhao Ying's existence would give him such a big blow.
He thought he had arranged everything.
But I didn't expect that I would miss this step.
"I thought you would understand!"
Emperor Zhao slowly closed his eyes, feeling a little sad.
"Yinger, she is a sharp weapon I have prepared for you!"
"..."
