Chapter 730 Not a Biological Daughter
"Are you the most powerful today?!"
Li Beifeng's eyes showed a hint of astonishment.
When there are so many masters out there today, crouching tigers, hidden dragons, few people dare to claim to be the best in the world!
Even though her martial arts skills have reached the level of a Taoist nun who is almost invincible in the world, she has never heard her say that she is truly invincible.
The so-called invincibility and number one in the world is mostly just flattery!
No one is sure whether a more powerful master will appear one day in this world of crouching tigers, hidden dragons!
But now, when Zhou Qiuning spoke so firmly, Li Beifeng was somewhat surprised.
"That's right!"
Zhou Qiuning nodded affirmatively, her beautiful eyes glowing in the darkness: "If he is really still alive... I am afraid no one can be his opponent today!"
"Still alive?"
Li Beifeng frowned: "You mean, he might be dead?"
"Yes!"
Zhou Qiuning sighed softly: "After all, no one has seen him for twenty-three years. If you calculate it, he is almost a hundred years old now...either he is dead or in his dying years, right?"
Li Beifeng squinted his eyes, recalling in his mind the scene in the backyard where he was shocked by the terrifying aura.
He couldn't even see the opponent's figure. Such a terrifying momentum and strength had truly reached an extremely terrifying level.
Where in the world did such a master come from?
"That……"
Li Beifeng suddenly thought of something again, "Suppose the guardian of Jokhang you mentioned is still alive. Is it true that no one in the world is his opponent?"
"That person was almost invincible decades ago!"
Zhou Qiuning nodded lightly and sighed: "I also learned about that person from some books and records. If he is really still alive, I am afraid that no one in the world may be his opponent!"
"Not even Li Wushuang?"
Li Beifeng mentioned the Taoist nun.
In his eyes, his aunt is the most powerful person in the world now.
Could it be that even his aunt is not his opponent?
Zhou Qiuning thought for a while and then said: "The strength and achievements your aunt has achieved now are the areas that the guardian of Jokhang has set foot on more than 20 years ago."
"If the guardian of Jokhang is really still alive and his strength has not diminished, then his martial arts skills are probably more terrifying than your aunt..."
Hearing this, Li Beifeng fell silent.
My heart took a deep breath!
More terrifying than a Taoist nun?
Are there really such monsters in the world? !
"However, if we really want to say that the only person who has a chance to compete with him is probably your aunt!"
Zhou Qiuning sighed quietly and said with some emotion: "Actually, if your aunt is willing to devote herself to studying martial arts in the past ten years, she may actually be able to reach a higher realm of martial arts..."
Li Beifeng remained silent.
He knew that the Taoist nun had been working hard for the restoration of the Northern Qi Dynasty for more than ten years.
This is the Taoist nun’s choice!
"If everything you said is correct!"
At this time, Li Beifeng narrowed his eyes slightly and said in a deep voice: "Ying'er, I'm afraid you are under house arrest!"
Zhou Qiuning gently supported her chin and blinked her beautiful eyes: "So what if I know? You can't save her!"
As if thinking of something, she sighed softly: "Even if she can't get out, it means that she may have really met someone more powerful than her..."
"I'm afraid this Da Zhao Guardian really exists!"
Li Beifeng frowned when he heard the news.
Right now is the most critical time.
Emperor Zhao openly broke his skin and killed him, indicating that Emperor Zhao already knew the origin of the child in Ying'er's belly.
In this way, he not only wants to get rid of Li Beifeng, but he will also definitely get rid of the child in Ying'er's belly.
Thinking of this, Li Beifeng couldn't sit still and stood up immediately.
But soon, the severe pain in his chest came, forcing him to sit back again.
Take a deep breath, cross your legs again and start healing.
Seeing this, Zhou Qiuning on the side saw his thoughts and shook his head gently: "It's useless even if you are anxious now. In your current state, trying to save her is nothing more than a dream!"
"That's better than sitting back and waiting to die!"
Li Beifeng's eyes were cold.
Now that Ying'er was about to give birth, her whereabouts and safety were unknown, so Li Beifeng was naturally worried.
"If you are impulsive now, it will only kill one more of you!"
Zhou Qiuning sighed and shook her head, then said: "You don't have to worry about her for the time being. After all, she is the eldest princess of Zhao and the biological daughter of Emperor Zhao. No matter what Emperor Zhao does, he will not hurt her..."
However, Li Beifeng's eyes changed slightly.
"how?"
Zhou Qiuning saw the strange look in Li Beifeng's eyes.
Li Beifeng was silent for a moment and said solemnly: "She is not!"
"What's not?"
"Ying'er..."
Li Beifeng took a deep breath, and then said in a deep voice: "She may not be Emperor Zhao's biological daughter!"
"What?!"
Zhou Qiuning's face was filled with astonishment, and she stared at Li Beifeng in disbelief: "No, not her biological daughter?!"
"Why is it so good, she is suddenly not Emperor Zhao's biological daughter?!"
Li Beifeng lowered his eyes and said solemnly: "Zhao Jing told me!"
Just before he was still in the dungeon, Zhao Jing suddenly called him and told him a secret about Zhao Ying.
The secret is... Zhao Ying may not be Emperor Zhao's biological daughter!
Li Beifeng was also shocked and disbelieving when he heard the news.
Zhao Ying, isn’t Emperor Zhao’s biological daughter? !
This news was a bit too shocking, and it was difficult to accept it for a while.
"Did Zhao Jing tell you?"
Zhou Qiuning frowned, as if she thought of something: "Zhao Jing is being held in a dungeon?"
"Um!"
"How did he know?!"
Zhou Qiuning wondered: "How did he know that Zhao Ying was not Emperor Zhao's biological daughter?"
"He didn't explain much, but..."
Li Beifeng squinted his eyes: "I saw something in his eyes. I'm afraid he didn't lie to me!"
"That's not necessarily the case!"
Zhou Qiu condensed his eyes and shook his head: "It's hard to say, it's not a rumor he deliberately spread."
"Now that Prince Zhaonan is dead and Zhao Jing has been deposed, Zhao Ying is the only remaining heir to Zhao Ying!"
"But if Zhao Ying is not Emperor Zhao's biological daughter, Zhao Jing will have a glimmer of hope..."
"Is it possible that this is his desperate plan?"
Listening to Zhou Qiuning's words, Li Beifeng was silent, and then nodded: "What you said makes sense, it's not impossible!"
Indeed, it is entirely possible that Zhao Jing is struggling to his death.
But the problem is...
If he really had no evidence, how could he tell this?
How can he be convincing?
More importantly, why tell him?
Li Beifeng frowned, thinking about Zhao Jing's purpose.
"The most important thing to figure out now is why he knows that Zhao Ying is not Emperor Zhao's biological daughter!"
Zhou Qiuning murmured to herself, as if thinking of something, a meaningful smile suddenly appeared at the corner of her mouth: "If this news is true, then Dazhao may be really interesting..."
Li Beifeng frowned: "What I'm most worried about now is that if this matter is true, then Emperor Zhao doesn't know about it...or does he already know about it?!"
If Emperor Zhao already knew about this, then...
Ying'er's situation will be very dangerous!
Or was it just because he knew that Ying'er was not his biological daughter that he put Ying'er under house arrest? !
"Your worries are not unreasonable!"
Zhou Qiuning nodded thoughtfully, then as if she thought of something, she raised her eyebrows: "In that case, why didn't you ask Zhao Jing for details before?"
Li Beifeng said solemnly: "I asked, but he didn't answer me."
Zhao Jing did not tell Li Beifeng the reason, but only expressed his guess.
As for the truth, we still don’t know.
"That's it..."
Zhou Qiuning touched her chin: "So, if you want to confirm whether this matter is true or not, I'm afraid you have to ask Zhao Jing again?!"
Thinking of this, she suddenly jumped out of bed.
"Where are you going?"
Li Beifeng realized something and said quickly: "There are masters and forbidden troops everywhere outside now, it's very dangerous!"
"Are you concerned about me?"
Zhou Qiuning smiled delicately and gave him a meaningful look.
Li Beifeng was silent for a moment and nodded: "Yes!"
He was indeed worried that this woman would be impulsive and cause something to happen.
She was very surprised to hear Li Beifeng admit it. There seemed to be a bit of joy in her beautiful eyes, and the corners of her mouth raised slightly: "Don't worry, they can't catch me. Besides..."
"Their goal is not me!"
Zhou Qiuning came to Li Beifeng and quietly looked at Li Beifeng's slightly pale face in the darkness.
"You just stay here and recuperate, and I'll come back as soon as I go!"
"..."
late at night.
dungeon.
The biting cold wind howled, and a familiar figure came back, breaking into the dungeon with ease.
In the dungeon, the unconscious jailers had just woken up from their coma. Before they could realize what had happened, they suddenly felt their eyes flicker, then black, and they passed out again.
After dealing with the jailer, Zhou Qiuning took light steps and reached the deepest part of the dungeon step by step.
Soon, I saw a familiar figure in the room in the dungeon.
At this moment, Zhao Jing was already lying on the bed and fell asleep.
It wasn't until the figure outside the cell approached that Zhao Jing suddenly opened his eyes and looked outside the cell.
When he saw Zhou Qiuning's figure appearing outside the cell, Zhao Jing's eyes narrowed and he was stunned!
"His Royal Highness, long time no see. How are you?"
Zhou Qiuning's delicate and beautiful face had a somewhat meaningful smile.
"Zhou, Miss Zhou?!"
Zhao Jing's eyes glazed over for a moment, and then he finally identified the beautiful figure in front of him.
Is it Zhou Qiuning whom I haven’t seen for a long time? !
"You, why are you here?!"
Seeing Zhou Qiuning again, a look of excitement appeared on Zhao Jing's face.
"Of course I made a special trip to see how His Highness the Crown Prince is doing now?"
Zhou Qiuning seemed to be smiling but not smiling.
Zhao Jing was startled, then sighed quietly, with a wry smile on his face: "Miss Zhou, are you here to ridicule me now?"
"Sarcasm?"
Zhou Qiuning said calmly: "That's not true. How can I, a commoner, dare to ridicule His Highness the Crown Prince?"
Hearing this, Zhao Jing was silent.
After a while, he sighed: "I know that Miss Zhou must still resent me... Miss Zhou hates me for killing you, right?"
At the beginning, Zhao Jing succeeded in killing his father and ascended the throne.
And the first thing he did after ascending the throne was to get rid of Zhou Qiu Ning.
After the plan failed, Zhou Qiu Ning disappeared completely.
And the relationship between him and Zhou Qiu Ning also broke down completely!
"Your Highness, you are overthinking. You just did what you should do!"
Zhou Qiu Ning crossed his arms and smiled: "If I were you, I would do the same."
Zhao Jing was silent.
He knew very well that since he killed Zhou Qiu Ning, their relationship would never go back!
"Well!"
Zhao Jing was relieved. He slowly struggled to get up and looked at Zhou Qiu Ning outside the cell quietly: "Miss Zhou suddenly came to me today. What's the matter?"
"You are right. There is indeed something that I want to confirm with you!"
Zhou Qiu Ning said lightly.
"What's the matter?"
Zhou Qiuning paused for a moment, then looked at him: "How do you know that Zhao Ying is not the biological daughter of Emperor Zhao?"
Hearing this, Zhao Jing was suddenly stunned, staring at Zhou Qiuning in astonishment: "How did you..."
"Did Brother Li tell you?!"
But soon, Zhao Jing suddenly realized and muttered to himself: "That's right...You and Brother Li have a special relationship. It seems that you have..."
After a moment, he calmed down.
"So, you want to ask me for the reason?"
"That's right!"
Zhou Qiuning narrowed her beautiful eyes: "How do you know that she is not the biological daughter of Emperor Zhao?"
"I guessed it too!"
Zhao Jing spoke slowly, and he looked at Zhou Qiuning quietly: "You should know that there is a guardian in my Dazhao royal forbidden area, right?"
Zhou Qiuning narrowed her eyes slightly: "He is still alive?!"
"That's right!"
Zhao Jing said in a deep voice: "The duty of my Dazhao guardian is to protect the bloodline of the Dazhao royal family to prevent the royal bloodline of my Dazhao from being cut off. When my Dazhao direct bloodline is in crisis, the Dazhao guardian will appear!"
"However, there is one thing I have been puzzled about before!"
"The old guardian once said that he would only protect the bloodline of the Dazhao royal family from attacks by outsiders. But he would not interfere in the power struggle within the Dazhao royal family, so... when I killed my father, the old predecessor did not intervene... …”
“But later, when I ascended the throne and my sister entered the palace to kill me, the old senior showed up. He secretly stopped my sister and protected me!”
“Then, not long ago, that night, my sister wanted to kill me again, and the old senior showed up again and stopped my sister…”
Zhao Jing narrowed his eyes and said in a deep voice: “I always thought that the old senior loved me very much, so he took extra care of me. However, when my father came back to life, he, as the guardian of Dazhao, suddenly stopped…”
Zhao Jing’s eyes were shining with a little brilliance: “So, the old senior didn’t say anything, and he really didn’t participate in the internal struggle of the Dazhao royal family. And the only reason why he repeatedly stopped my sister from killing me is…”
“My sister is not my father’s biological daughter at all!”
“She is not even the royal blood of my Dazhao? ! ! ”
Zhao Jing was decisive and firm in his tone.
“…”
