Chapter 745: Peace in the World (End of Text)
Li Beifeng stood on the wall for a long time, looking at the smoke in the distance, the blue sky and white clouds.
The sun shines on my body, making me feel warm.
Rare good weather!
It seems to indicate that everything is about to get better.
After a long time, Li Beifeng withdrew his gaze, turned around, and fell into the courtyard from the wall. When he was about to leave, he saw two figures standing not far away.
In a pavilion not far from the courtyard, a pair of master and servant stood quietly.
A woman in a warm blue dress, and a maid in a green dress beside her.
It was Xie Wan'er and Lu'er.
Xie Wan'er quietly looked at Li Beifeng not far away. Under the warm green dress, she had a slim and graceful figure. Her waist was full and her perfect curves were highlighted. Her plump breasts stretched the warm embroidered dress into an astonishing arc.
And under the black hair tied up at one end, there is a face that is exquisite and flawless, with a bit of nobility.
Her innate aloof temperament makes her whole body dignified, elegant and generous.
"Why are you here?"
Li Beifeng walked towards them, smiled softly and spoke.
Xie Wan'er glanced at him and said calmly: "Where could we be if we weren't here?"
"Isn't it okay to disturb your love with Miss Zhou?"
Li Beifeng was startled, this tone...
When he looked at her again, he saw Xie Wan'er's faint eyes, and her tone was even more... yin and yang?
Hearing this, Li Beifeng raised his eyebrows and said with a smile, "Why, are you angry?"
"You think too much, how dare I!"
Xie Wan'er rolled her eyes, sighed and said resentfully, "How can I be angry now that I'm living under someone else's roof?"
Li Beifeng was happy!
"Don't you dare to be angry?"
"Isn't it?"
Xie Wan'er curled her lips and snorted: "Lu'er, let's go!"
With that said, she pulled Lu'er behind her and left.
However, just as he turned around, Li Beifeng grabbed his hand.
"What are you doing? Let me go!"
Xie Wan'er tried to struggle and throw away.
However, how can she compete with Li Beifeng with this little strength?
Not only did he not break free, but Li Beifeng pulled her directly into his arms with a gentle tug.
"You, let me go..."
Xie Waner tried to struggle, but Li Beifeng put an arm around her waist to prevent her from moving.
"Okay, don't be angry..."
Li Beifeng leaned close to her ear and comforted softly: "She is gone!"
"What does it have to do with me?"
Xie Wan'er still struggled relentlessly: "Let me go!"
"Don't let go!"
"I bit you!"
"You dare?!"
Why wouldn't Xie Wan'er dare?
He immediately opened his silver teeth and was about to bite Li Beifeng's neck, but Li Beifeng turned his head slightly to avoid it.
"Hmm..."
The next second, Xie Wan'er's mouth was blocked by something, and her eyes suddenly opened wide.
When Lu'er on the side saw this scene, her fair little face turned bright red.
She turned around in panic, not daring to watch Mr. Li and the young lady flirting...Why in public?
"You, you..."
After a while, Xie Wan'er broke away, her face flushed, and just when she was about to speak angrily, Li Beifeng suddenly stopped her and picked her up.
"Ah... you, what are you doing?!"
Xie Wan'er's face turned redder and she spoke in panic.
"Of course I will take you back to Beizhou!"
Li Beifeng picked her up and turned towards the room in the inner courtyard.
Go back, go back to Beizhou? !
Xie Waner was temporarily absent-minded, and she was still a little bit unconscious. What did it have to do with Li Beifeng hugging her back to Beizhou?
However, when she reacted, she saw that Li Beifeng had already hugged her and came outside the room.
At this moment, Xie Waner suddenly woke up.
Why go back to Beizhou?
He, why does he want to go back to Beizhou? !
"You, let me go..."
Xie Wan'er realized something, her face turned red and she struggled, but it was too late.
Li Beifeng held her in his arms, kicked the room open with ease, and strode in.
As the door to the room was closed, Xie Wan'er's struggling and calling for help stopped abruptly.
In the pavilion not far from the door, Lu'er's pretty face turned red, biting her lower lip and watching this scene.
Young Master, he is... too, too bad!
…
The spring breeze blows across the earth and the weather gets warmer.
It's hot summer.
The situation in the capital gradually stabilized as Zhao Ying took charge of the palace.
Zhao Ying relied on her status as the eldest princess and the support of a group of ministers headed by Prime Minister Su to stabilize the originally shaky court.
Even though she is a girl, no one dares to question her now!
After the situation in the capital stabilized, Zhao Ying began to deal with the Jiangnan rebellion.
This rebellion has been going on for a year!
In this year, the economy of the entire southern Jozhao region was severely hit. During the war, countless people were displaced and their lives were in dire straits.
Jozhao's empire was also on the verge of collapse, and rebellions continued throughout the south.
With Prince Zhaonan committing suicide, it was originally thought that the rebels would completely fall apart.
However, the Jiangnan rebels supported the crown prince of Zhaonan to ascend to power, regained control of the rebels, and continued to compete with the Jokhang court. Coupled with the death of Emperor Zhao, the situation that was originally one-sided became confusing again.
But just when everyone thought that this rebellion would continue for a long time, even for several years.
Zhao Ying, who had just taken control of the situation in the capital, immediately began to recruit troops and generals, and mobilized tens of thousands of soldiers and horses from all over Jozhao to go south to quell the rebellion.
This time, she must completely eradicate the rebels in Jiangnan!
Everyone can see that Zhao Ying is serious this time!
For a time, the world was in turmoil, and countless people were eagerly waiting for the ending.
It was also at this time that Li Beifeng embarked on his journey back to Beizhou.
The distance from Beijing to Beizhou is only half a month, so it's not that far. When Li Beifeng entered Beizhou, he happened to hear the news from Ruyi Tower.
"It seems that this time she is really planning to eradicate the Jiangnan rebels!"
Li Beifeng squinted his eyes, feeling a little emotional.
He still underestimated Zhao Ying's courage.
It was originally thought that after taking control of the situation in the capital, she would first accumulate power and wait until the time was right before taking action against the Jiangnan rebels.
Unexpectedly, she can't wait so much!
The inner treasury of the Jokhang court was empty, and there was almost no money left.
But this did not trouble Zhao Ying. From the first day she took power, Qintiansi launched an investigation and cleanup of Jokhang officials on the basis of the assassination of Emperor Zhao.
If you didn't check, you wouldn't know that this investigation actually uncovered a lot of traitors and corrupt officials. During the raids on their homes, they even found exorbitant amounts of stolen jewelry and silver.
The imperial court's inner treasury, which was originally empty, suddenly became rich.
After having money, Zhao Ying had the confidence to destroy the rebels.
"We must act as soon as possible!"
The Taoist nun spoke in a low voice, her voice urgent.
"While Dazhao has not completely wiped out the rebels and has no time to take care of Beizhou, now is the best time for us to restore our country!"
"I know."
Li Beifeng nodded calmly and looked forward along the carriage.
In the distance ahead, faint houses and buildings are looming.
That's Beizhou!
It was his old homeland in the Northern Qi Dynasty.
The plan is about to succeed!
…
Beizhou, Sunset City.
Today's Sunset City has changed hands.
After He Wansheng escaped from Sunset City, Sunset City fell into the hands of the old Northern Qi tribe.
Nowadays, as the reputation of the Northern Qi Dynasty becomes more and more famous, more and more old troops join the Northern Qi Dynasty.
There was a prosperous scene throughout the city, and countless soldiers and horses were stationed outside the city.
In the city, the ruined buildings of the past have been rebuilt.
The governor's palace that was destroyed last year has been overthrown, and a brand new palace is being built.
Sunset City was originally the capital of the former Northern Qi Dynasty, and the place where the governor's office was located was the former site of the imperial palace of the Northern Qi Dynasty.
Now with the overthrow of the Governor's Office, the Northern Qi Palace was rebuilt. The Northern Qi Imperial Palace, whose history has been concealed for nearly twenty years, is ready to rise at any time.
On the other side, in the familiar courtyard.
The large mansion that was destroyed on that rainy night has been rebuilt and restored to its original appearance.
In the inner courtyard, in the pavilion under the shade of trees.
Several figures were sitting in the pavilion, bored.
Shen Qingning leaned on the stone table, with a bored look on her face, and sighed: "It's so boring!"
Yun'er on the side suggested: "Miss, how about we go out for a walk?"
"Don't go, I'm tired of it!"
In the past six months, she has almost traveled all over Sunset City, and there is nowhere to go.
"It seems to be the same..."
Yun'er muttered, there really wasn't a good place to go. The main reason is that it's too boring to stay here, and... the young master is not here either.
Thinking of something, a trace of worry and nostalgia appeared on Yun'er's face.
The young master has been gone for almost half a year, and I don’t know how he is doing now.
Why haven't you come back yet?
"It's boring..."
Shen Qingning sighed again, as if she thought of something, a look of anger appeared on her delicate face.
"Miss...do you also miss the young master?" Yun'er asked tentatively.
"The devil misses him!"
Shen Qingning spoke subconsciously, but suddenly thought of something and turned to look at Yun'er: "Yeah?"
"Are you thinking about him too?"
Only then did Yun'er realize something, a trace of panic appeared on her face, and she waved her hands quickly: "Miss, I, I don't..."
"Um?"
"All right……"
Yun'er lowered her head, her face turned slightly red, and she said with a guilty conscience: "Yes, a little bit..."
"Don't you think about him!"
Shen Qingning said angrily.
"oh."
"..."
"Let him die outside!"
Shen Qingning spoke angrily, and the heartless man ran away again. This time he ran away for another half a year.
Although I receive letters from him every month,...
Can't that bastard come back?
Is he hooking up with others outside again, nostalgic for the gentle land and refusing to come back?
Thinking of this, Shen Qingning felt very complicated.
In the courtyard on the other side, Su Shan felt a little complicated when she saw this scene.
She looked at Shen Qingning, and then at Yun'er, who had a slightly red face. She didn't know what she thought of, and felt a little guilty. She turned to look outside the hospital.
Qiuyue, who was standing behind Su Shan, saw this scene and remained silent.
Of course she knew the young lady's mood at this time... It should be strange, right?
As if thinking of something, Qiuyue raised her head and met Yun'er's eyes opposite her.
The two looked at each other and seemed to understand each other tacitly.
Then, they moved away at the same time.
"Deng Deng stare!"
At this moment, footsteps were heard outside the courtyard.
Immediately afterwards, a beautiful shadow appeared.
In the arms of this figure was a girl who was not yet one year old.
The girl has pink and tender hair. Although she is still small, she can vaguely see the appearance of a beautiful woman from her brows and facial features.
"What's in your mind?"
Several people turned back at the same time.
The person who appeared in the yard was Li Xinyi.
"Quick, let me hold Qi Ling!"
Shen Qingning's eyes lit up, and she hurried forward happily.
"Be careful!"
Li Xinyi carefully handed the baby girl in her arms to Shen Qingning, who held the child and teased her happily.
"Qi Ling, do you still remember me? I'm your mother... No, I came first, you have to call me aunt, hurry up..."
Li Xinyi: "..."
"Sister Qingning, Qi Ling doesn't understand yet!"
"I know!"
Shen Qingning said confidently: "But I want to train her from a young age... Let her be the first to call me mother in the future!"
Although she had an opinion on Li Suyi, Shen Qingning still liked this child very much.
Li Xinyi stopped talking, as long as Sister Qingning was happy.
"Hey, why hasn't Brother Beifeng come back yet?"
As if thinking of something, Li Xinyi showed a bit of anger on his face: "How could he do this, leaving the mess to me and running away?"
Before Li Beifeng left last year, he pushed Li Xinyi out.
Li Xinyi also has the blood of the Northern Qi royal family. Without Li Beifeng, she has to take charge here.
Everything was fine before with Aunt and Sister Suyi here, but with Aunt and Sister Suyi leaving almost at the same time last month, Li Xinyi seems to be a little overwhelmed.
Tired!
Very tired!
If Brother Beifeng doesn't come back, she will rebel!
"Whatever he wants, it's best if he doesn't come back. Anyway, we don't need him."
Shen Qingning snorted and said unhappily while teasing the child in her arms.
Just then, a burst of hurried footsteps came from outside the yard again.
Then, two maids appeared outside the yard.
"The young master is back!!"
Hearing this, all the women in the yard were stunned.
Yun'er and Qiuyue smiled immediately. Great, Young Master Li is finally back!
Su Shan's eyes lit up slightly, back? !
When she was about to go out to greet him subconsciously, she suddenly realized something and turned to look at Shen Qingning beside her, with a trace of guilt in her eyes.
At this time, Shen Qingning, who was teasing the child, heard the news suddenly, trembled all over, and her eyes suddenly widened.
Back, back? !
The next second!
"Hey, hey Sister Qingning, what are you doing?"
"You, you slow down!"
Li Xinyi looked down at the child who returned to her arms and the figure who ran away from the inner courtyard.
Sighed.
Still saying that you don't need Brother Beifeng?
When Brother Beifeng came back, she ran faster than anyone else.
Alas!
Sister Qingning who said one thing and meant another.
...
Sunset City, outside the mansion.
Li Beifeng looked up at the familiar courtyard, full of emotion.
Back!
Finally home.
This time, finally no more wandering.
"Is this your home?"
A soft voice came from the side, Xie Wan'er looked up and looked at it, a little curious.
"Yes!" Li Beifeng nodded and chuckled: "This will be our home in the future!"
"No!"
Xie Wan'er curled her lips: "I don't want to see your women, I want to go back to the Xie family!"
"Too late, too late!"
Li Beifeng shook his head: "Your second uncle has sold you to me."
"Hmph!"
Xie Wan'er snorted heavily, turned her head away and said nothing.
Li Beifeng smiled: "Okay, let's go in first!"
At this time, there were only three people left at the door.
After returning to Sunset City, the Taoist nun went to discuss the preparations for the restoration of the country and the throne.
As for Su Yi...
After entering the city, she left alone first, and did not come back with Li Beifeng.
As for the reason, she didn't say.
But Li Beifeng also guessed it.
Obviously, Su Yi probably didn't want to see Li Beifeng flirting with other women, so she simply didn't want to see it and didn't want to be bothered... For example, during this journey, Su Yi almost didn't get out of the carriage, and didn't want to see Xie Wan'er at all.
Although she turned a blind eye, she also warned Li Beifeng not to go too far!
After all, turning a blind eye was her concession, but if Li Beifeng went too far... Su Yi couldn't guarantee that she wouldn't do something.
After sighing for a moment, Li Beifeng took Xie Wan'er and Lu'er, the master and servant, back to the house. As soon as he walked in, Li Beifeng saw a figure trotting not far away.
After a careful look, who else could it be but Shen Qingning?
Seeing Qingning, Li Beifeng's face showed a bit of tenderness.
He hadn't seen her for half a year, and he missed this girl very much.
"Qingning?!"
Li Beifeng immediately stepped forward with a smile on his face.
Shen Qingning trotted to Li Beifeng, and suddenly stopped, looking up and down at him, staring at him for a moment.
Then, she showed an angry look on her pretty face, and suddenly raised her leg and stepped hard on Li Beifeng.
"Asshole, you finally came back?!"
Shen Qingning's voice was a little angry, she gritted her teeth, and stepped very hard.
"It hurts!"
Li Beifeng immediately 'grinned', looking like he was in great pain.
"Don't pretend, I know you're fine!"
Shen Qingning had a stern face.
"No, it really hurts!" Li Beifeng naturally couldn't admit it.
"You're kidding a ghost!"
Shen Qingning was not the girl who was easy to fool at the beginning, so she was not so easily fooled.
"I'll just step on you to death!"
Shen Qingning stepped on him several times, as if venting her dissatisfaction.
Then, she raised her eyes and stared at Li Beifeng's face for a long time.
The next second, her delicate body suddenly threw herself into Li Beifeng's arms and hugged him tightly.
"Next time you dare to leave me alone here for so long, I will bite you to death!!"
Shen Qingning's voice was full of anger and trembling.
Li Beifeng felt warm in his heart, hugged her tightly, and comforted her softly: "I know, I won't do it next time!"
Shen Qingning suddenly raised her head: "There will be a next time?"
Isn't it unreasonable?
"No more!"
Li Beifeng spoke.
"Humph, this is more like it!"
Shen Qingning nodded with satisfaction, buried her little head in Li Beifeng's arms again, and greedily breathed in the familiar breath.
Too familiar!
A feeling of peace of mind surged up.
Li Beifeng was also full of emotion at this moment. When he was about to say something, he glanced at the front from the corner of his eye and was startled.
Not far in front of him, he saw Su Shan.
When Su Shan saw the two people hugging each other, she stopped and looked complicated.
When Li Beifeng was about to say something, he saw Su Shan gently shook her head.
Li Beifeng realized something...
Su Shan, hasn't she told Qing Ning about what happened between them?
At this moment, Su Shan's mood was also very complicated, especially when she saw the scene in front of her, she felt indescribable.
At this moment, her eyes suddenly fell on the master and servant not far behind Li Beifeng.
The next second, her face changed slightly.
"Crown Princess?!"
"Crown Princess?!"
The gentle voice attracted the attention of others present.
At the same time, Xie Wan'er also saw Su Shan, and was startled, and then there was a bit of incredible shock in her eyes.
"Su, Su Shan?!"
She naturally recognized Su Shan, the illegitimate daughter of Prime Minister Su, and they had met several times in the capital.
How could she be here?
Could it be, could it be...
Xie Wan'er suddenly turned her head to look at Li Beifeng. Could she also be...
Su Shan was extremely surprised at this moment.
Why is the Crown Princess here?
She, she is not...
The next second, Su Shan seemed to realize something, and a complex expression of disbelief appeared on her face.
Could it be...
At this moment, Shen Qingning, who was buried in Li Beifeng's arms, heard the voice and subconsciously raised her head.
"Crown Princess? What Crown Princess?!"
As soon as she raised her eyes, she met the gazes of Xie Wan'er and Lu'er, the master and servant, on Li Beifeng.
Shen Qingning was stunned when they looked at each other.
Then, she realized something in an instant, suddenly took two steps back, looked at Li Beifeng, and then looked at Xie Wan'er...
Her eyes were instantly alert.
"Who is she?!"
"Ahem..."
Li Beifeng felt a little guilty, he whispered: "Obviously, she... is a person!"
"I didn't ask you that!"
Shen Qingning pointed at Xie Wan'er with a stern face: "I asked you who she is, don't tell me... is it the sister you brought back to me?"
"Qingning, you have become smart, you can see this?"
"Asshole, do you think I am praising you?!"
Shen Qingning's face changed immediately, and he said angrily: "Well, I told you not to mess around outside, but you brought a vixen home? Li, you are too much!"
Xie Wan'er, who was standing aside, frowned suddenly when she heard this: "Who do you say is a vixen?"
Although she knew that there would be many women around Li Beifeng, Xie Wan'er didn't expect to run into one right after entering the door?
It's okay to be hostile, but the words are so unpleasant?
"I'm talking about you!"
Shen Qingning said angrily immediately.
"Say it again?" Xie Wan'er snorted coldly.
"Say it again, so what? You are a vixen, a vixen who seduced my man!"
Xie Wan'er's face sank, but soon she seemed to think of something, and a sneer appeared on her face: "A vixen is better than a shrew like you!"
Shen Qingning's eyes widened immediately: "Who are you calling a shrew?"
"I'll call whoever replies to me!"
"You..."
Shen Qingning was furious, and immediately rolled up her sleeves to deal with her.
"Calm down, calm down..."
Seeing that they were about to fight, Li Beifeng hurriedly stopped Shen Qingning.
"Don't be impulsive!"
"Let me go, don't stop me, I want to teach her a lesson!"
Shen Qingning was furious.
"You can't beat her!"
Li Beifeng sighed.
Qingning was powerless, and although Wan'er's martial arts were not particularly powerful, it was still easy for her to deal with Qingning.
"You two, calm down first... why don't you give me some face, we are all sisters, sit down and have a good talk?"
"Dream on!"
"You wish!"
The two women spoke almost at the same time.
Then, they stared at each other with hostility again.
They looked like they were eager to fight!
Seeing that the situation was out of control, Li Beifeng immediately picked up Qingning and walked to the inner courtyard.
"Yun'er, help me take care of them!"
After saying that, Li Beifeng carried the furious Shen Qingning away without saying anything!
Not far away, Su Shan, Qiuyue and Yun'er stood aside, watching this scene quietly.
Su Shan's eyes were complicated, with a hint of worry. Qiuyue's eyes were cold, and seemed to have a hint of smile. Only Yun'er, with a smile on her face, couldn't help laughing...
Although she is Qingning's personal maid, it's so interesting!
The young lady is jealous!
This rebellious little maid laughed heartlessly.
Yun'er looked up at the beautiful young lady that Mr. Li brought back not far away.
It seems that the next period of time will be very interesting!
...
With the return of Li Beifeng, the deserted house became lively again.
And the first meeting between Shen Qingning and Xie Wan'er was obviously not very pleasant.
Because of this, the two of them targeted each other and didn't deal with each other!
Even if Li Beifeng kept trying to appease her, but... things didn't seem to be that simple?
In fact, Xie Wan'er didn't intend to argue with Shen Qingning at the beginning. Before coming to Beizhou, she already knew the existence of Shen Qingning and knew that this little girl and Li Beifeng were childhood sweethearts and had a good relationship.
As a latecomer with a special identity, she didn't think about fighting for anything, and even felt a little uneasy for a while.
However, with the bad impression left by Shen Qingning when she first met her, Xie Wan'er was also holding back her breath.
The former eldest lady of the Xie family was not so easy to bully.
She would fight for her dignity if she didn't make a fuss!
So, the grudge between the two of them was formed.
In the following days, the house was very lively and chaotic.
They were all happy!
For Li Beifeng, how to balance and reconcile the relationship between the women became his biggest headache and the busiest thing.
However, the current situation was still under control.
Li Beifeng was very confident that as long as he was willing to work hard, sooner or later they would accept each other.
Everything was moving in a good direction!
...
Dazhao, the palace.
The dungeon secret room!
The dim light illuminated the deserted secret room.
A lonely figure appeared outside the cell, and his cold and beautiful eyes looked at the desolate figure in the cell.
Haggard, dilapidated, his eyes had lost all their luster.
It was not until a long time later that he raised his head slightly and glanced outside the cell.
Then, he was stunned for a long time. There was a hint of life in his eyes!
His eyes were complicated.
"Why are you here?"
His voice was haggard and hoarse.
"Shouldn't I come?"
A cold voice came.
Zhao Ying looked at him expressionlessly.
"Maybe."
Zhao Jing's voice was indescribably trance-like and relieved.
"It seems that you should have succeeded?"
Zhao Jing muttered to himself, and a hint of indescribable meaning suddenly appeared on his face.
"I didn't expect that my Dazhao's kingdom would eventually fall into the hands of others... I Dazhao's hundreds of years of hard work have all been used to make wedding clothes for you!"
The dust has settled!
When Zhao Ying appeared here, it already meant that she was in power.
She was not a member of the Zhao family, and she did not have any blood of the Zhao family in her body.
This also means that the blood of the Dazhao royal family was broken!
His Dazhao's kingdom has since fallen into the hands of others.
From now on, the kingdom of Dazhao no longer belongs to his Zhao family.
Zhao Ying was silent for a long time before she said coldly: "The kingdom of Dazhao will still be named Zhao!"
Zhao Jing was also silent, he understood what she meant.
After a while, he shook his head and smiled bitterly: "If you are really the blood of my Zhao family, how great it would be... I lost to you, I am not as skilled as you, you are indeed more suitable for that position than me..."
"It's a pity that you are not a member of the Zhao family!"
"Forget it, it doesn't matter anymore!"
The voice gradually lowered, with a bit of unspeakable relief.
It doesn't matter whether it is or not!
He can no longer change any results.
Zhao Jing slowly raised his head: "So, you are here to kill me today, right?"
Zhao Ying's eyes were cold: "Why do you think so!"
"I know too much... If I live, it will threaten your position!"
Zhao Jing's eyes were indifferent: "Only if I die, the news that you are not of my Zhao family blood will be forever sealed, and no one will know it anymore..."
"So, I must die, right?"
Zhao Ying was silent for a long time before saying: "You are very smart!"
"If you hadn't done such a treasonous thing, it might not be a bad thing for the Great Zhao to be handed over to you!"
Zhao Jing's eyes flashed with a trace of trance, and then he said: "Is it meaningful to say this now?"
"Yes, it's too late!"
Zhao Ying spoke calmly.
"Before I die, I have one last question..."
Zhao Jing seemed to have looked down on everything. He looked at Zhao Ying and asked the last question: "He is the prince of Northern Qi, and Northern Qi will definitely restore the country... What are you going to do then?"
"What will be the fate of my Great Zhao?!"
This is his last question!
It was also the issue he was most concerned about.
In any case, he was the former prince and monarch of Dazhao.
The life and death of Dazhao was closely related to him.
He wanted to know what Zhao Ying would do now that it had come to this point?
How would she choose?
Zhao Ying looked at him in silence and calmness, with a calm gaze, as if she had already made a decision.
"The war should end!"
She spoke softly.
Zhao Jing was stunned, and then realized something and laughed out loud.
"So that's it, it seems that you have already thought about it!"
"I'm relieved!"
"Well, treat my Zhao family well!"
After laughing, Zhao Jing slowly sat up and calmly prepared to die.
...
Outside the dungeon, countless generals of the Imperial Astronomical Service stood.
A solemn and murderous atmosphere filled the air.
Zhao Ying, dressed in white, slowly walked out of the dungeon.
"Your Highness, the Princess!"
Several generals of the Imperial Astronomical Service stepped forward.
Zhao Ying nodded slightly, put her hands behind her back, and said expressionlessly: "Pass on my order to permanently seal the burial dungeon. No one is allowed to approach this place. Those who violate the order will be killed without mercy!"
"Yes!"
Zhao Ying slowly raised her eyes and looked into the distance.
A hint of coldness appeared on her delicate and beautiful face.
"It's time to end!"
She murmured to herself.
...
One month later.
The reinforcements of the Dazhao court went all the way south and fought against the Jiangnan rebels in the territory of Nanzhou.
However, as soon as the two armies met, the Jiangnan rebels were defeated, with countless casualties, and fled in embarrassment.
Then the imperial army was unstoppable and went all the way south. In just half a month, all the rebels in the territory of Nanzhou were annihilated and recovered.
As soon as this news came out, the whole world was shocked!
No one expected that this would be the result?
The Jiangnan rebels suddenly became so vulnerable?
What happened?
Soon, intelligence from the front line came.
It is said that the reason why the Dazhao imperial army was able to defeat the rebels was because there was a thing called "Sky Thunder" in the imperial army.
This thing is very small, but it is amazingly powerful. The explosive power it can produce is so great that even top-notch masters dare not confront it head-on.
This thing fell into the crowd of rebels, and no one survived within a dozen sides.
Like a devil's sky thunder, it swept across and harvested all lives.
The once solid city walls also seemed particularly fragile under the "Sky Thunder" and were easily blown up.
The Jiangnan rebels changed color when they heard it, and the imperial army relied on this thing to break through all the way and killed into Jiangnan.
No one expected that this small thing could change the situation so easily.
As the imperial army marched southward, it gradually recovered the lost territory. The rebels in Jiangnan also suffered countless casualties and were powerless to turn the tide.
Under the power of the ‘sky thunder’, the Jiangnan rebels were in turmoil and had no fighting spirit. Wherever they went, they almost surrendered and gave up resistance.
The prince who was in charge of Jiangnan finally despaired after realizing that he was powerless to turn the tide!
The Jiangnan rebels also completely collapsed and disintegrated.
…
While the imperial army was in full swing to wipe out the rebels, the old Beiqi troops far away in Beizhou officially announced the restoration of the country after occupying most of the Beizhou area.
As a descendant of the former Northern Qi royal family, Li Beifeng, the prince of Northern Qi, announced to the world that he officially ascended the throne and became emperor.
The capital was set in Xiyang City, and the country was named Taiping!
It means peace in the world and prosperity in the country!
The restoration of the Northern Qi country caused an uproar in the world.
Although everyone knew that the restoration of the Northern Qi country was a foregone conclusion. However, when this day came, everyone was still in a trance, as if dreaming!
Beiqi, finally came back?
Countless Beiqi people burst into tears, and those white-haired old people in Beizhou were even more excited. After waiting for twenty years, they finally went home!
They finally have a home again!
After Beiqi announced the restoration of the country, the Beiqi army immediately pressed on the border and launched the final elimination of He Wansheng's forces who were still resisting in Beizhou.
Beiqi was full of momentum and unstoppable.
When this news was passed back to Dazhao, it also caused an uproar.
Countless people in the folks petitioned the court to suppress the rebellion and destroy the restored Beiqi again.
In the court, countless officials also spoke out and wanted to send a large army to take back Beizhou. Although Beizhou was indeed the territory of Beiqi in the past, it had surrendered to Dazhao for more than 20 years and was now taken back. Naturally, many people could not accept it.
Moreover, many people believed that they could easily destroy the Jiangnan rebels and would certainly destroy the Northern Qi again, relying on the fact that they now had the "Heavenly Thunder".
Just as this voice was getting more and more intense, Zhao Ying, who had been living in the palace for many days, finally showed up.
This time, she gathered the ministers in the court together, threw the so-called "Heavenly Thunder" in front of everyone, and demonstrated it in front of everyone.
The amazing scene made countless people excited!
However, Zhao Ying's next light words instantly extinguished everyone's enthusiasm.
Even, it frightened countless people!
"This thing comes from the Northern Qi!"
"..."
Three months later.
The Dazhao court army captured Zhao Xun alive in Jiangnan, which also meant that the Jiangnan rebels were completely defeated!
The rebellion that lasted for more than a year was finally declared over!
However, with the end of the war, what was left was the Dazhao country with thousands of holes. The economy of the destroyed Jiangnan and southern regions suffered a serious blow!
At this time, Dazhao was already dying, no longer prosperous as before.
After the war, it was faced with reconstruction!
The economy of Dazhao had reached the end of its strength and could not withstand any more tossing.
At the beginning, those who clamored to destroy Beiqi again and recover Beizhou disappeared when the court announced that it would increase war taxes.
After the Jiangnan rebels were completely eradicated, Zhao Ying officially sent people to take over the Jiangnan region and intervened to control the major families in Jiangnan.
In order to stabilize the situation in Dazhao, Zhao Ying did not immediately liquidate these families.
At present, the situation in Dazhao is unstable, and they still need these local families to stabilize the people. However, when the situation in Jiangnan stabilizes in the future, they will definitely be repaid in the autumn.
They who stood on the wrong side will inevitably pay a heavy price.
This time, they can't run away!
At the same time, after the restoration of the country, Northern Qi also carried out post-restoration construction in an orderly manner.
The Northern Qi army was overwhelming, and the remaining He Wansheng forces in the Beizhou area were getting smaller and smaller.
Prince Zhaonan is dead, and He Wansheng is no longer qualified to compete with Northern Qi after being hit hard.
Under Zhao Ying's order, He Wansheng led the remaining generals and evacuated Beizhou in despair and returned to the capital.
And this also means that his myth as the former Jokhang's number one god of war is completely destroyed.
Not long after returning to Beijing, He Wansheng became disheartened, resigned and left the capital, his whereabouts unknown.
With He Wansheng's withdrawal, Northern Qi also completely recovered Beizhou and took back all the territory that Northern Qi had lost in the past.
Just when everyone thought that a new war was about to break out between Da Zhao and Northern Qi.
No one expected that a decree came out from the Jokhang Palace, recognizing the independence of Northern Qi.
Shock the world!
Before everyone could recover from the shock, Dazhao and Northern Qi suddenly announced the establishment of diplomatic relations at the same time.
Then, in several cities bordering Dazhao and Northern Qi, trade between cities and towns was started to exchange what was needed. People between the two countries can freely communicate with each other, visit relatives, get married, do business... everything goes smoothly!
At the same time, if you want to travel to and from the two countries, it is very simple. You only need to register with the government, issue a certificate of real estate, bank or village, and pay a certain deposit, and you can get a pass issued by the government!
With this pass, you can enter and leave the other country within a certain period of time.
Very convenient!
All this is going according to plan.
The restoration of the Northern Qi Dynasty initially aroused the anger of the people of Zhaozhao, but it was more about the national thoughts of the country.
There are many people who resist, and there are also many people who protest.
But these opposing voices were all suppressed.
The grievances between the two countries are very deep and have not been resolved for nearly twenty years. Now with the restoration of Northern Qi, it is naturally not easy to resolve these grievances and conflicts.
But for the people who lived on the border between Zhongzhou and Beizhou in the past, they actually didn't care about this.
With the exchange of goods and services between the two countries, the people of the two countries still have smooth communication. For the people of the two places, life has not changed much.
Everything is still as usual!
More importantly, with the restoration of Northern Qi, the war ended.
For ordinary people, such peaceful days seem more worth looking forward to.
The world should be at peace!
…
Sunset City.
Northern Qi, the Imperial Palace!
The newly built palace is located on the former site of the Northern Qi Imperial Palace, and 70% to 80% of the landscape has been restored.
For many people in Sunset City in the past, this palace represented not only imperial power, but also their sense of belonging to Northern Qi.
Everything is back!
Deep in the palace, in the harem.
Li Beifeng lay on the soft couch and stretched out.
"The plan went well, but it was a bit of a surprise!"
Li Beifeng looked at the memorial information coming from his hand and raised the corner of his mouth slightly.
Zhao Ying's movements were much faster than he expected.
"It seems that the war is really over and the world is at peace!"
Li Beifeng murmured to himself, then turned his head and looked at the cold figure sitting next to him: "Are you right, Su Yi?"
Next to Li Beifeng, a woman in a green shirt and long skirt sat there quietly.
Just sitting there, the cool temperament is indestructible and shocking to the heart.
Wearing a plain white lining and a long cyan skirt, she has a tall, slender figure.
She was sitting on the edge of the soft couch, with a pair of straight long legs under her skirt, looming, revealing a bit of snow-white jade-like calves, which was dazzling.
Li Beifeng stared quietly for a long time, a little stunned.
"Maybe."
Li Suyi spoke coldly and turned to glance at Li Beifeng.
When he saw Li Beifeng's strange expression, he seemed to realize something and subconsciously lowered his head.
Then, a trace of unnaturalness appeared on the fair face.
She immediately stood up and left.
"Don't go!"
Li Beifeng had quick eyes and quick hands and immediately grabbed her hand.
"Sit with me for a while longer."
Li Suyi was silent for a while and then sat down again.
"Sit on!"
Li Beifeng patted his side and said with a smile: "Stay closer to me."
Li Suyi didn't move.
"What's wrong?"
"Mind your image!"
Li Suyi glanced at him lightly: "You are the emperor of Northern Qi now, how can you behave like this? If the master sees it, he will definitely reprimand you again."
"Hey... you don't want to pick up any of the pots!"
Li Beifeng had a headache. He really didn't feel comfortable being the emperor at all.
He looks majestic, but there are endless things to do every day, memorials from various places, and all kinds of things need to be handled by him.
Fortunately, he was willing to provide free labor, otherwise Li Beifeng would not have much free time.
Think about it this way, what do those people do after working so hard for such a tiring position?
Li Beifeng doesn't understand!
But it doesn't matter!
Now that the world is finally settled, there is nothing Li Beifeng needs to do anymore, and he won't do it either.
He doesn't know how to govern a country, but fortunately he has a Taoist nun here. As the emperor of Northern Qi, Li Beifeng only existed to stabilize the world.
Of course, there may be some other trivial matters, but Li Beifeng has left them to Li Xinyi, a free labor force.
As the eldest princess of Northern Qi, how could she not contribute to Northern Qi?
As for Li Beifeng, he planned to return to his old business!
Start to play badly!
"Aunt is not here, what are you afraid of? There are only two of us here. No one dares to come in without my order."
Li Suyi still did not move.
This is even more dangerous!
Seeing that Suyi did not move, Li Beifeng stood up and took the initiative to sit beside her, gently holding her in his arms.
Li Suyi did not struggle or move.
"Thank you for your hard work!"
Li Beifeng quietly stared at Li Suyi's cold and beautiful face close at hand, gently hugged her, and suddenly spoke softly.
Li Suyi did not speak, but just looked at him strangely.
"In fact, I am really not interested in being an emperor... If it weren't for the help of you and aunt, I might not have made it this far."
Li Beifeng sighed.
Thinking about it carefully, he might really be useless?
All along the way, he relied on eating soft rice.
All kinds of eating!
Did he eat the emperor of Northern Qi?
Is this the peak of being a gigolo?
"Why don't you speak?"
Li Beifeng asked when he saw Su Yi was silent.
Li Su Yi said calmly: "You are right."
Li Beifeng: "..."
Although this is true, it was somewhat frustrating to hear Su Yi say this.
From the beginning to the end, he seemed to be always suppressed by Su Yi.
Before, now, and even in the future...
As if remembering something, Li Beifeng sighed deeply.
Su Yi even killed the guardian of Da Zhao. According to what my aunt said, Su Yi's martial arts is no weaker than hers.
Now Su Yi can be called the real number one in the world, right?
This is a realm that Li Beifeng will never reach in his life, which also means that Li Beifeng may be suppressed by Su Yi in his life...
"Did you give that to her?"
Just as Li Beifeng was sighing, Li Su Yi beside him suddenly asked.
Li Beifeng was stunned for a moment, and then gradually came back to his senses and realized what Su Yi was talking about.
"Yeah...what's wrong?"
Li Suyi turned around and said calmly: "Nothing!"
"Are you angry?"
Li Beifeng looked at Suyi's profile and sighed: "Don't worry, I know...I can't give all that stuff to her. The reason I gave it to her is to make the world peaceful as soon as possible!"
Li Suyi said calmly: "I'm not angry."
Li Beifeng stopped talking.
If he didn't explain, no one would believe that she wasn't angry.
But...
Thinking of what happened in the palace, Li Beifeng was a little dazed.
The "thunder" that the Zhao court army used to wipe out the Jiangnan rebels was the gunpowder that Li Beifeng gave to Zhao Ying.
That day, Zhao Ying insisted on forcing Li Beifeng to choose one of the two and do that childish multiple-choice question.
Li Beifeng, who was rarely tough for a while, took Zhao Ying's weak spot with a tough attitude! After his hard "cultivation" all night, Zhao Ying, who was already sensitive, finally threw away her armor and begged for mercy!
After being severely "taught a lesson", the woman finally stopped being stubborn.
What happened afterwards was natural.
Zhao Ying still stayed in Dazhao, controlling the situation in Dazhao and suppressing the rebellion in Jiangnan. And Li Beifeng returned to Northern Qi to restore the country, and everything went according to the previous plan.
The two countries established diplomatic relations, exchanged what they had, strengthened economic and cultural ties, eliminated the grievances and contradictions between the two countries for many years, and resolved the sequelae left by the war.
This is already the best solution, avoiding war and minimizing the impact of the restoration of Northern Qi on the two countries.
Everyone is happy!
It is for this reason that Li Beifeng handed the formula of gunpowder to Zhao Ying, and Zhao Ying also relied on gunpowder to successfully solve the Jiangnan rebels.
On the other hand, Zhao Ying finally did not force Li Beifeng to choose between the two, and let him be free.
He came when he wanted to come and left when he wanted to leave.
However, the only thing that has not changed is... Zhao Ying's principles have not changed!
She didn't want to see Su Yi again, and Su Yi also seemed unwilling to see her again. The two sisters seemed to have a tacit understanding and no longer met each other. They almost never mentioned it, as if... deliberately forgot it.
And all this was the best result for Li Beifeng.
If he wanted, he could go to Dazhao at any time, to see Zhao Ying, to see their children...
Perhaps, it's good now... right?
Thinking of this, Li Beifeng was a little dazed.
Looking at Su Yi in his arms, a trace of guilt suddenly emerged in his heart.
In fact, Su Yi was the most tolerant person to her.
She tolerated Li Beifeng and the women around him...
Li Beifeng hoped to still remember that when he first met her, Su Yi was so narrow-minded at that time!
The appearance of Qing Ning made her sulky for a long time.
However, now, Su Yi has been so tolerant and generous, accepting these women around him.
Is it really tolerant?
Li Beifeng thought about it carefully, not necessarily!
Her personality has not changed, what has changed is probably her thoughts about Li Beifeng.
"I'm sorry."
Thinking of this, Li Beifeng suddenly spoke softly, feeling a little guilty.
Li Suyi looked sideways, puzzled.
The cool and slightly puzzled pretty face was particularly attractive!
Li Beifeng couldn't help but lean over and kissed her.
"You, what are you doing..."
Li Suyi's face immediately panicked.
Even though they have a child now, and have even had sex many times... that!
But she is still not used to being attacked by Li Beifeng so suddenly, especially in broad daylight!
"I suddenly think you are very cute and want to kiss you!" Li Beifeng chuckled.
Li Suyi frowned and said nothing.
She struggled for a while, but failed to break free, so she stopped moving.
She didn't really want to struggle.
"Actually, I miss the days in Lijia Village..." Li Beifeng recalled things from a long time ago and sighed.
"I remember our first meeting... That night, I was still thinking about life at the door of my house, and you fell from the sky like a fairy, flying a sword to kill two people, almost scared me to death..."
"Then I inexplicably saved you and lived together inexplicably... To tell you the truth, I saved you because you were good-looking at that time. If it were someone else, I would have reported you to the police to catch you for money..."
"I didn't expect that I actually saved my own wife. Isn't it amazing?"
Li Beifeng muttered to himself.
It seems like not long ago, but several years have passed. Everything seems to be just yesterday, but it has been so long.
A look of reminiscence appeared in Li Suyi's eyes.
Li Beifeng's words evoked her memory of that time.
That was, she was betrayed and attacked, and she fled to that small village with serious injuries. She was rescued by him, and then...
Scenes came to her mind, and Li Suyi's eyes gradually softened.
There seemed to be some gentle affection flashing in those cold eyes.
"After we are done, let's go back and have a look when we have time?" Li Beifeng suddenly suggested.
Li Suyi looked back at him and nodded.
"Okay."
"Then... there is one more thing!"
Li Beifeng hugged Suyi, leaned into her hair, gently sniffed the faint fragrance from her hair, and spoke softly.
Suyi lowered her head slightly and said nothing.
"When will we get married?"
Li Suyi was startled, silent for a while, and asked back: "What do you think?"
"It's better to do it tomorrow than to choose a day. How about a quick decision?"
Northern Qi was restored, Li Beifeng ascended the throne, and Suyi should have been crowned as the queen.
But Suyi refused.
The reason, those who understand know it!
Now that these things are done, the relationship with Suyi has improved, and Li Beifeng brought up the matter again.
This time, Li Suyi did not refuse directly.
She glanced back at Li Beifeng and said nothing.
"What's wrong?"
"I'll think about it."
She spoke softly.
"Do you still need to consider this?"
Li Beifeng was stunned.
Still considering it?
Their daughter Qi Ling can walk after considering it again.
Li Suyi rolled her eyes at him, "Why are you in such a hurry?"
"I am in a hurry!"
Li Beifeng nodded: "Isn't it because I want to marry you as soon as possible? What else are you considering?"
Li Suyi raised a faint smile at the corner of her mouth, "It depends on your performance?"
"Performance?"
Li Beifeng was stunned: "How should I perform?"
"Think for yourself!"
Li Suyi's eyes were happy, with a somewhat indescribable lightness.
Is she in a good mood?
Li Beifeng pondered for a moment.
And then, as if he had thought of something, a meaningful look came to his mind.
"I thought of it!"
"Hmm?"
Li Suyi's face showed a trace of doubt, and when she was about to turn around.
But she saw Li Beifeng turned over and pressed her under him.
"You, what are you doing?!"
Li Suyi's face immediately flushed, and she glared at her in shame and anger.
"Didn't you ask me to perform well?"
Li Beifeng said righteously: "Don't worry, I will perform well and will never let you down!"
Li Suyi opened her beautiful eyes and thought of something in an instant. Her beautiful and delicate face flushed red. She said angrily: "I'm not talking about this performance... You, you get off, you... ah... don't, don't touch me..."
"..."
The main text is over!
——————————————
The main text is basically over here!
I wanted to write a closing speech, but I remembered that I haven't written the extra chapter yet, so I gave up! Let's summarize it together after the extra chapter is written!
It's called an extra chapter, but it's actually the content of the finale. It's a pit filling and the daily life of the subsequent characters. It was originally the finale, but it doesn't fit the overall story, so I put it in the extra chapter! The total length is estimated to be 20,000 to 30,000 words (of course, in fact, it is definitely more than that, those who understand will understand!)
The content also includes the ending of Li Suyi and Zhao Ying sisters, Zhou Qiuning's plot, and the plot of all other characters. Of course, the most important thing is the plot of the deep sisterly love between Li Suyi and Zhao Ying, and there must be a happy ending (if there are any pits missed, everyone can remind me)
So, the extra chapter can be regarded as the real ending. Without the extra chapter, this ending does seem a bit hasty (but some book friends said that I can write another million, which is really overestimating me, and the water can't come out!)
The extra chapter I promised before has not been written, so I plan to make a big wave of a coherent ending plot in this extra chapter. So it takes some time to write, but it won't take too long!
Finally...
Thank you to all the book friends who have been following until now!
