Chapter 741 It’s Not over Yet

With Zhao Ying's order to withdraw troops, the crisis in the manor was resolved!

Everyone in the manor breathed a sigh of relief.

Afterwards, everyone in the manor took advantage of the night and quickly moved their base.

After all, this is Dazhao's territory, and it is not safe. According to the original plan, Li Beifeng and others should return to Beizhou as soon as possible.

However, since the Taoist nun and Li Beifeng were seriously injured, and Su Yi was also injured, it was not suitable for a long journey at the moment. Therefore, everyone secretly recuperated in the base outside the capital for the time being, and left when the injuries improved slightly.

The Taoist nun came to the capital this time to rescue Li Beifeng. Now that the plan was successful, it was natural to go back to discuss the plan to restore the country.

Emperor Zhao died, and Dazhao was completely in chaos. Now it was the best time for Northern Qi to restore the country.

For the Taoist nun, once Emperor Zhao died, even the guardian died. There was no one in the world who could stop her.

Even though she was still seriously injured, it did not affect her commanding Yang Yu to help her pass on information and command the preparation for the restoration of the country.

As the news of Emperor Zhao's death spread, the world really fell into chaos again.

For a time, even countless people were pessimistic!

Once Emperor Zhao died, the prince was abolished. Now the orthodox bloodline of the Dazhao royal family is cut off?

Doesn't this mean that the rebel far away in Jiangnan, the prince of Zhaonan, has become the heir?

This news made many people unacceptable for a while.

And the capital and the court were even more chaotic.

In just one year, the imperial power of Dazhao changed so many times, which had shaken the prestige of the imperial power. Even with Prime Minister Su in charge, he could not control the court situation that was about to collapse.

At this time, Zhao Ying suddenly returned to Beijing!

As soon as Zhao Ying returned to Beijing, she quickly took over the power of the imperial guards of the Dazhao Palace, and then quickly took control of the Jingzhao Prefecture. Then, as the eldest princess, she issued a series of orders and quickly stabilized the situation in the court.

Her identity and qualifications have undoubtedly become the reassurance of Dazhao today.

Of course, there are also people who are dissatisfied with Zhao Ying, who think that as a daughter, she should not participate in court affairs.

But after the officials who spread these remarks were found to have died tragically at home the next day, the court was instantly silent.

Such means are fierce and vicious!

For a time, many people remembered the fear of being dominated by Her Royal Highness the Princess.

They remembered the organization that frightened them at the beginning... Qintiansi!

Yes, it's back!

Qintiansi, which was once again in Zhao Ying's hands, once again became the nightmare of countless ministers in the court. And Zhao Ying also quickly took control of the court with her iron-blooded wrist.

...

At the same time, Li Beifeng was recovering outside the capital!

After learning about the series of events that happened in the Dazhao Palace, he vaguely guessed Zhao Ying's purpose.

However, what Li Beifeng didn't understand was why Zhao Ying had such a strange reaction that night, and... why did she take their child away without saying anything?

I always felt that something happened.

Li Beifeng also asked Su Yi, trying to find out if they had said anything else that night.

However, Li Su Yi never revealed anything, which made Li Beifeng puzzled.

After a few days of recuperation, Li Beifeng's body recovered at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Three days later, Li Beifeng could go out normally.

Although his injuries had not healed yet, especially the most serious sword wound on his chest, it was still not healed, but at least it did not affect his movements.

At this time, the plan to return to Beizhou was also put on the agenda.

But before returning to Beizhou, Li Beifeng had another very important thing to do.

He wanted to meet Zhao Ying and ask everything clearly.

...

Dazhao Palace.

In the quiet palace, a beautiful figure sat quietly on the dragon throne.

In front of her, there were many memorials.

Zhao Ying, still dressed in white, lowered her head and looked at these memorials, her face cold.

Now, the situation in the court is almost completely controlled by her. Relying on the power of the Imperial Astronomical Department and Jingzhao Prefecture, some officials in the court who were involved with the Jiangnan forces were eliminated.

And the remaining officials dared not say anything else.

Because... Zhao Ying really dared to kill them!

And because the Dazhao court was now in a precarious situation, Zhao Ying was the only royal bloodline left.

Therefore, she quickly attracted a large group of ministers loyal to the Dazhao royal family.

Of course, some officials intended to make a memorial to restore the status of the deposed prince and let the deposed prince Zhao Jing ascend the throne again.

The official who proposed this idea disappeared from the court the next day, and no one saw him again.

The situation in the court also changed with Zhao Ying's swift and decisive measures, and the power was back in his hands.

Now, no one in the entire Dazhao court can stop Zhao Ying from taking power.

At this moment, after Zhao Ying finished reading all the memorials in his hand, a trace of coldness appeared on his cold face.

The hidden danger of the Jiangnan rebels has not been eliminated yet.

Although Prince Zhaonan is dead, his son is still fighting stubbornly. It will not be easy for the court army to suppress the rebellion for a while.

At present, the national treasury is tight, and the world is in chaos. Now it is in danger. If the war continues... the consequences will be disastrous!

Thinking of this, Zhao Ying frowned.

Then, she slowly stood up, left the palace, and turned to the side courtyard of the harem.

"Princess!"

The maid at the door bowed her head and spoke respectfully.

Zhao Ying stepped into the side courtyard, came to the door of a room in the inner courtyard, and pushed the door open.

As soon as she walked in, she heard a baby crying.

In the room, several maids were coaxing a baby.

"Princess?!"

When they saw Zhao Ying appear, several maids looked panicked.

"Give it to me!"

Zhao Ying walked up and picked up the child from the maid's hands.

The magical thing is that when Zhao Ying picked up the child, the child who was still crying suddenly calmed down.

"You go out first."

"Yes."

Several maids left the room.

Zhao Ying held the baby in the swaddling clothes, bowed her head and looked gentle.

The child also lay quietly in Zhao Ying's arms and gradually fell asleep.

At this moment, the atmosphere in the room was peaceful and harmonious.

...

But all these beautiful pictures were broken with the appearance of a figure.

Zhao Ying raised her eyes and looked at the door.

There was a figure standing outside the door, watching her quietly.

"Why are you here?"

Zhao Ying seemed to be dazed for a moment, but then quickly recovered.

"Can't I come?"

Zhao Ying frowned slightly. The palace was heavily guarded. He was seriously injured. How could he get in here?

"Ahem..."

A slight cough sounded, and Li Beifeng touched his chest, feeling a little painful.

His injuries had not healed.

Li Beifeng walked into the room, came to Zhao Ying, and looked at her quietly.

Zhao Ying looked at each other calmly, without any ripples on her face.

Then, Li Beifeng's eyes slid down and fell on the child in her arms, and his eyes softened a lot: "Is this our child?"

A nonsense.

Zhao Ying did not answer him.

Li Beifeng looked at the child in her arms quietly, a little dazed, and a strange emotion surged in his heart.

He turned his gaze back to Zhao Ying, and seeing her indifferent look, he was silent for a moment: "Don't you want to tell me something?"

Zhao Ying raised her eyes, with a little coldness in her eyes: "What?"

Li Beifeng said in a deep voice: "I met someone in the city today."

Zhao Ying's eyes were calm.

"Zheng Ning."

Zhao Ying was startled, and then her expression changed slightly, and she suddenly raised her head to look at him.

Li Beifeng's eyes were particularly complicated: "This matter... do you two want to hide it from me forever?"

"..."
