Chapter 725: This King Has Not Lost Yet

The north wind was howling and raging. In the room, a dim oil lamp was lit. The wind that occasionally seeped in from the window made the oil lamp sway.

On the bed, a figure was lying quietly.

Prince Zhaonan!

At this moment, Prince Zhaonan's face was pale, without a trace of blood. If you look closely, you can even see a few black spots on the blood vessels on his skin!

The poison has invaded his internal organs, and now he only has one breath left.

In a daze, Prince Zhaonan slowly opened his eyes, and a feeling of dizziness came over him.

Cold!

Very cold!

Weak!

Can't muster a bit of strength!

Is he going to die?

The feeling of dizziness made him sick and weak all over. But he had expected this step long ago, so he was calm in his heart.

"Squeak!"

The door of the room was pushed open, and then several figures walked in.

Prince Zhaonan raised his eyes with difficulty and saw two familiar figures appearing in the room.

Li Beifeng, Zhao Ying!

At this moment, when Zhao Ying saw the emperor's uncle in such a state, her heart suddenly sank.

Even if she didn't know medicine, how could she not see that the emperor's uncle was already in a state of death? !

"Imperial uncle?!"

Zhao Ying came to the bedside, her voice was cold and trembling: "Why do you do this?!"

Why would he give up his life for no reason?

But Prince Zhaonan seemed to be relieved, with an indescribable look of relief on his face.

"I, I can't go back to the capital alive!"

He spoke with difficulty, and every word he said seemed to hurt.

"The emperor's uncle is not convinced. The person the emperor's uncle is most dissatisfied with in his life is your father... Even if he dies, the emperor's uncle can't become his prisoner..."

Zhao Ying was silent.

Unexpectedly, there was such a deep grudge between the emperor's uncle and his father?

Even if he died, he was unwilling to return to the capital?

Unwilling to see the father? !

"Uncle, why are you doing this?"

Zhao Ying's delicate body trembled slightly, and her bright eyes were filled with a bit of sadness: "Even if you don't want to see my father, you won't use your life as the price, right?"

She didn't understand!

Why did the uncle do this?

Why did he suddenly give up his life?

"I can't live!"

Prince Zhaonan lay on the bed, his expression was difficult, but very determined.

"I haven't lost yet!"

Hearing this, Zhao Ying raised his eyes suddenly.

"My Jiangnan army... now there are still tens of thousands of elite soldiers, and I still have the support of the Jiangnan family. I haven't lost yet..."

Prince Zhaonan lowered his eyes, and his face seemed to be filled with a bit of relief.

He can't return to the capital alive!

As the leader of the rebels, if he is captured alive in the capital, it will be a fatal blow to the rebels!

Rather than this, it's better to...die!

Prince Zhaonan's eyes sank slightly, and he gritted his teeth and said, "As long as I die, the rebels will not be in chaos, and Xun'er will inherit my throne..."

He had already made all the preparations!

His son Zhao Xun is now in the army. As long as he gets into trouble, Zhao Xun will take over his mantle and continue to command the rebels to fight against the imperial army!

Even if his death will have a great impact on the rebels, it will not affect the foundation!

This is the real reason why Prince Zhaonan is determined to die.

"I am unwilling, and I will not give up!"

Prince Zhaonan lowered his eyes and said in a deep voice: "Even if I die, I have not lost... Xun'er, he will replace me and continue to fulfill my last wish!"

Silence!

In the silent room, no one spoke for a long time.

Zhao Ying stared at the emperor's uncle in a daze.

She didn't expect that the emperor's uncle's purpose was this?

In order to save the rebels, he actually sacrificed his own life? !

Zhao Ying's voice trembled slightly: "Is the throne of the emperor really that important?"

"Important?"

Prince Zhaonan's pupils dilated, looking at the beams, his face was already relieved.

"I have been preparing for more than ten years, just wanting to take back everything that originally belonged to me..."

Prince Zhaonan suddenly coughed violently, his body trembled violently, but his eyes were still very firm: "Even if I can't do it, there is still Xun'er to help me do it..."

"Uncle, I haven't lost yet!"

Prince Zhaonan, who has been strong all his life.

No one expected that he would go to such an extreme.

Would he choose to end his life at this critical moment? !

At this moment, the atmosphere in the room was dull.

After coughing violently twice, Prince Zhaonan's eyes fell on Li Beifeng who was standing aside with difficulty.

He stared at Li Beifeng, his pupils dilated, and said with difficulty: "Ben, I always feel that you are familiar, you, who are you?"

Li Beifeng was silent.

"I, I am about to die... Can you, can you finally fulfill my wish?"

He stared at Li Beifeng.

He looked familiar, too familiar!

Who is he?

Li Beifeng was silent, and glanced at Zhao Ying beside him, but saw that Zhao Ying was silent.

Then, Li Beifeng took off the silk mask on his face.

Soon, a handsome face appeared.

When Prince Zhaonan saw Li Beifeng's true appearance, his pupils suddenly shrank: "You, you are..."

"Li Beifeng!"

Li Beifeng looked at Prince Zhaonan calmly.

At this moment, Prince Zhaonan couldn't believe it, and his eyes were dull for a moment!

Li Beifeng?

He, isn't he the boy I met before when I was still in Chaoyang County?

besides……

"Prince of Northern Qi?!"

Prince Zhaonan's voice was difficult and he stared at Li Beifeng.

How come he doesn’t know what’s going on in North State?

The prince of Northern Qi is Li Beifeng!

"It's me!"

Li Beifeng still nodded calmly.

After getting the exact answer, Prince Zhaonan's shocked eyes gradually came back to reality, but soon, a violent coughing sound sounded.

"Original, that's how it is..."

Prince Zhaonan looked at Li Beifeng, then at Zhao Ying who was standing aside. Then, as if he remembered something, he suddenly looked up to the sky and laughed.

"Prince of Northern Qi? Princess Dazhao? Ying'er, you are pregnant with the child of Northern Qi..."

"Good fortune plays tricks on people, God plays tricks on people!"

"Cough cough cough..."

"..."

The toxins of Wudu Powder have invaded Prince Zhaonan's body and blood, and it is extremely difficult to save him!

No matter how superb Li Beifeng's medical skills were, there was nothing he could do in the end.

Prince Zhaonan's body was becoming more and more visibly emaciated day by day. He was so poisoned that there was nothing he could do about it.

Starting from the next morning, Prince Zhaonan fell into a comatose state, his breathing was weak, and his heart pulse was affected.

After that, I woke up occasionally, coughed and vomited a lot of black blood!

No matter how hard Li Beifeng tried, he could only delay it for a while. Prince Zhaonan, who was extremely poisonous, was completely hopeless.

It wasn't until the morning of the third day that Prince Zhaonan suddenly came back to his senses. Not only was his mental state much better, he was even able to get up and go to the ground, and he also drank two bowls of thin porridge in the morning.

However, this state did not last long. Before noon, Prince Zhaonan suddenly developed a high fever and passed out again.

This time, his body finally reached the final step.

"Really, really unwilling..."

Prince Zhaonan was lying on the bed. In a daze, decades of past seemed to flash before his eyes.

The original high-spiritedness swallowed up the heroic words of Northern Qi, and he had tens of thousands of elite soldiers, enough prestige and strength to establish himself as a king.

Then, he endured it for more than ten years. Just when everything seemed to be going in a good direction, in the end, everything turned into a bubble.

He is not willing to give in!

But……

He has no choice!

…

outside the room.

Li Beifeng stood in the corridor, and the howling cold wind kept blowing from the window.

But he seemed not to feel the cold at all, quietly staring out the window at the dark night!

The cold wind blew, and then something seemed to fall.

Is it snowing?

Only then did Li Beifeng realize that it had begun to snow outside the window at some point.

In the dark night, light snow fell, but Li Beifeng felt a little heavy.

He didn't expect that Prince Zhaonan would choose to sacrifice himself in order to protect the rebels!

It's his fault for being careless and not expecting this at all.

Fame, fortune...are they really that important?

Li Beifeng sighed secretly in his heart!

This time Zhao Ying went to Nanzhou to assassinate Prince Zhaonan. Zhao Ying was unwilling to do so and planned to escort Prince Zhaonan back to Beijing.

Unexpectedly, Prince Zhaonan finally chose this step.

Indeed, his death would deal a huge blow to the rebels. But at the same time, I'm afraid it will also completely anger the Jiangnan rebels!

Once it is not handled properly, not only will the contradiction between the rebels and the imperial army fail to be reconciled, but it may create even greater contradictions!

Then, what will happen to the situation in Jiangnan?

Everything is hard to say!

Just as Li Beifeng was silently looking at the snowy scene at night, the sound of the door opening came from behind.

Li Beifeng turned around and Zhao Ying walked out of the room.

Her face was cold and expressionless, but Li Beifeng could see a hint of sadness from the corners of her eyes.

As if thinking of something, Li Beifeng subconsciously said: "Your imperial uncle..."

"Let's go!"

She came to Li Beifeng's side and stood side by side at the window, quietly looking out at the scenery outside the window.

Her voice was calm, as if she was saying something insignificant.

But how could Li Beifeng not notice the sadness in her heart?

The death of Prince Zhaonan would probably be a big blow to her.

"Condolences!"

Li Beifeng was silent for a moment, not knowing what to say.

comfort?

What he is worst at is comforting!

There was a sad look in Zhao Ying's eyes, and then gradually disappeared.

"This is the emperor's own choice..."

Zhao Ying lowered her head slightly, with a hint of confusion in her eyes: "Or did I hurt him?"

"This has nothing to do with you!"

Li Beifeng shook his head gently: "Prince Zhaonan has his own dignity. He will not allow himself to appear in embarrassment in front of your father... Instead of doing this, it is better to kill him!"

He can understand Prince Zhaonan's mentality!

He had refused to obey Emperor Zhao all his life, but now he was a prisoner. For him, Prince Zhaonan would never accept this.

Therefore, his choice was unexpected, but also reasonable.

Zhao Ying remained silent.

The beautiful eyes fell into the darkness outside the window, and the white snowflakes fell fluttering!

It's snowing heavily!

…

This heavy snowfall is coming soon!

It snowed heavily all night, and the whole world seemed to be covered in ice and snow. On the eaves, there was thick snow on the ground.

It’s like becoming a white world!

Prince Zhaonan is dead!

Die quietly!

This news was not leaked, except for a few people such as Li Beifeng and Zhao Ying.

After the heavy snow stopped, they continued on their way!

Back to Beijing!

The body of Prince Zhaonan was placed in the carriage and was ready to be taken back to the capital!

Along the way, there were few assassins who attacked. When they entered the territory of Zhongzhou, those assassins also disappeared.

After staying in the inn for a few days, it was the end of the year when they returned to the capital smoothly!

In front of them was the towering wall of Dazhao Capital.

When they saw the gate of the capital, they finally breathed a sigh of relief.

They were nervous all the way, running all the way, and they were already exhausted.

Finally arrived!

"What are you going to do next?"

In the carriage, Li Beifeng glanced outside the carriage, then glanced at Zhao Ying in the carriage, and asked: "Are you going to take your uncle's body into the palace?"

Zhao Ying nodded calmly.

Even if the emperor's uncle died, she would still take him back to the palace and bury him!

"When are you going to leave?"

Li Beifeng thought for a while: "Should I rest for a night? Regain my energy before entering the palace?"

Even Li Beifeng was a little exhausted from the rush along the way, let alone Zhao Ying who was pregnant?

At present, Zhao Ying, who was getting older, could no longer hide the baby in her belly. Therefore, in order to avoid causing too much waves, she hardly left the carriage and the inn room these days.

"No need!"

Zhao Ying stared out the window with her beautiful eyes and bit her lower lip lightly: "I want to see my father first... No matter what, the emperor's uncle is dead now, I want to ask my father not to embarrass the emperor's uncle and let him be buried and sleep!"

"..."

Li Beifeng did not persuade him, and he could not persuade him.

After entering the city, Zhao Ying quickly brought people into the palace.

Li Beifeng was also sending his men away, asking them to go and recuperate for a while.

After leaving the capital for several months, there seemed to be no changes.

After returning to the capital, Li Beifeng first went to Ruyi Tower to learn about what happened in the capital during his absence.

Then, Li Beifeng returned to the small courtyard.

In the small courtyard, there is a small bridge and flowing water!

A heavy snow had just fallen in the capital, and the snow in the courtyard had not yet completely melted.

The plum blossoms in the courtyard were blooming brightly.

Under the eaves and corridor, a beautiful figure was sitting, looking at the scenery in the courtyard boredly.

"Miss, it's cold!"

Lu'er came up and put a coat on the young lady, and then sighed: "The snow fell a little late this year, but the weather is still so cold!"

"It can't be compared with our Beizhou. Speaking of which, Miss, I miss Beizhou a little... When can we go back?"

Xie Wan'er stared at the scenery in the courtyard in a daze, and after a long time, she sighed faintly: "I think there should be a chance?"

That guy promised to take her back to Beizhou.

But...

Is he lying to himself?

Thinking that this guy had suddenly left for several months, Xie Waner felt a little angry.

At the same time, she also felt a little worried.

He, wouldn't be in any danger? !

Even Xie Waner herself didn't realize that she suddenly began to care about Li Beifeng's safety.

And that guy's every move seemed to be a constant concern for her.

After a while.

"Ah..."

She sighed softly.

At the same time, a familiar voice sounded behind her.

"What are you sighing for?"

"..."
