"Don't you want to know what I've used you to do?"

In the dark night, Zhou Qiuning's voice sounded for no reason.

Li Beifeng stopped and turned around slowly.

In the dark night, his eyes seemed extremely calm and rational.

He glanced at her calmly and said lightly: "What do you want to say?"

"What do you think?"

Zhou Qiuning raised his face slightly and watched Li Beifeng's every move.

A smile appeared on his beautiful face, which looked particularly sincere.

"I just think that some things should be told suddenly. You can't keep in the dark all the time... are you right?"

Li Beifeng didn't speak, but just looked at her silently.

The heavy rain at night gradually began to become smaller and turned into drizzle.

The two were still in the rain, and their clothes were already wet, and neither of them had escaped from the rain from beginning to end.

Maybe it's tacit understanding or maybe it's fighting spirit.

At this moment, Zhou Qiuning in front of him was already wet, and looked particularly embarrassed.

However, she smiled happily, stared into Li Beifeng's eyes, and spoke softly.

"Actually, I really have to thank you for all this tonight. If it weren't for you, maybe everything that happened tonight wouldn't have happened..."

Li Beifeng's eyes froze, and he was a little confused about what she meant.

Thank him?

Zhao Jing rebelled tonight, and still has to thank him?

What are you thanking him? Cuckold Zhao Jing?

...

Seeing the doubts in Li Beifeng's eyes, Zhou Qiuning smiled slightly, "Zhao Ying was assassinated, and everyone in the world suspected that it was Zhao Jing's actions, so Emperor Zhao naturally knew that. Therefore, he summoned Zhao Jing into the palace and put him under house arrest! One was to limit his freedom, so as to prevent him from hiding the fake from it. Secondly, it was to prevent him from having any unfaithful intentions and worrying about his private illness..."

"Although Emperor Zhao ignored the government for many years, he was not a fool. He naturally noticed something, so he put Zhao Jing under house arrest!"

Zhou Qiuning spoke calmly: "However, Zhao Jing had expected it. Therefore, before entering the palace, he had already arranged everything. Once any changes occur in the palace, they will act immediately..."

"However, what Zhao Jing may not have expected was that Emperor Zhao would bypass the Imperial Heavenly Secret and sent his confidants to the imperial tomb to investigate the truth. Zhao Jing plotted against the Imperial Heavenly Secret, but missed this step... These people took secret actions and avoided everyone's eyewitness. Once they investigated the truth, Emperor Zhao took action in advance, Zhao Jing failed and had no chance to turn things around..."

"So you happened to be a big help!"

Zhou Qiuning looked at Li Beifeng meaningfully.

Li Beifeng stared at her calmly: "Because of you?"

"That's right!"

Zhou Qiuning narrowed his eyes and smiled: "Thanks to your help, I sent me into the palace, to Zhao Jing, and obtained this crucial information... The people sent by Emperor Zhao have indeed found Zhao Jing's head. Thanks to this information in time, they were able to intercept those people halfway!"

"Otherwise, after Emperor Zhao learned the truth and was prepared, Zhao Jing would have no chance."

After listening to Zhou Qiuning's words, there was no wave of surprise on Li Beifeng's face.

Did he help Zhao Jing?

Not necessarily!

Even though Zhou Qiuning did not meet him that night, Li Beifeng believed that she would definitely have a way to meet Zhao Jing and obtain information.

His appearance only facilitated her and could not affect any situation.

"You're not surprised, nor are you angry at all?"

Seeing that Li Beifeng did not seem to have a big reaction, Zhou Qiuning was slightly surprised.

"Things have happened. Is it useful to be angry?" Li Beifeng glanced at her.

Whether to use it or not, the ending will be the same.

"That's right!"

Zhou Qiuning chuckled.

"I didn't see that, you're quite open-minded!"

She shook her head gently, looked not far ahead, and stopped.

Li Beifeng also stopped and looked forward. A small hill appeared in his sight not far away.

Located in a deep mountain on the west side of the palace, it seems to be a bit remote.

“Where is this?”

"Just come with me!"

Zhou Qiuning glanced at him, walked to the hill, passed through a small forest, and came to a jungle.

As she paused in the jungle, a stone door soon appeared in the sight of the two of them.

"This is……"

"A secret room!"

Zhou Qiuning glanced at him, as if he remembered something, and the corner of his mouth raised slightly: "Your good-looking master broke into the Dazhao Palace and almost took Emperor Zhao's life. After that, Emperor Zhao summoned the best craftsmen in the world to design and create an indestructible secret room. This secret room is extremely hidden, and very few people know the exit of the secret room. This is the back door of the secret room!"

"Emperor Zhao has escaped from the Health Hall tonight. If nothing unexpected happens, he should be hiding in this secret room now."

Li Beifeng narrowed his eyes slightly: "Since there are very few people who know, why do you know?"

Zhou Qiuning paused and turned around and smiled mysteriously at Li Beifeng: "Guess?"

“…”

Li Beifeng naturally didn't guess that there were enough secrets in this woman, and this one was not bad either.

After opening the stone door, Zhou Qiuning took the lead in walking into the secret room. Li Beifeng hesitated a little, and after a moment, he followed into the secret room.

As soon as I walked in, I smelled a moldy smell, and the cold environment made me feel a little creepy.

It seems that no one has ever appeared in this stone chamber for a long time.

In the dim environment, the passage of the secret room is not wide, and the surroundings are pitch black, so you can't see your fingers.

What made Li Beifeng even more strange was that this secret room looked airtight, but it had enough oxygen.

Somewhat weird!

In the darkness, Li Beifeng could vaguely see Zhou Qiuning's figure in front of him. The two of them passed through the long and tortuous secret passage one after another.

Soon, the front suddenly lit up.

With the sound of the two of them, the lights hanging on both sides of the passage suddenly lit up silently.

Voice-controlled light?

Li Beifeng frowned slightly. I have to say that this secret room is indeed a magical craft. It should not be called a secret room. It is also believed that it is the imperial tomb. Li Beifeng also believed it.

Looking at the lights around, Li Beifeng's eyes finally stopped at Zhou Qiuning's body in front of him.

"You said, it's over?"

Zhou Qiuning turned around slightly and glanced at him: "Who do you think will win the father and son tonight?"

Who's winning?

Li Beifeng did not answer her question, but when his eyes fell on her, he found that her clothes were dry, and even the wet hair was no longer stained with water at this moment.

Although her slightly loose hair looks a little embarrassed, it cannot hide her natural beauty.

Seeing this, Li Beifeng looked at him without squintingly and secretly lucked his internal strength.

As the internal force surged in his body, it slowly spread out as his body spread. Immediately afterwards, the originally wet clothes on Li Beifeng began to steam.

Soon, the moisture on the clothes disappeared without a trace under the baking of internal force.

When the internal force reaches a certain level, it is easy to urge the internal force to dry clothes.

Li Beifeng, who was refreshing, followed Zhou Qiuning's footsteps. Soon, the two of them passed through the passage and came to a room.

From a distance, the two of them smelled the bloody smell from the air.

Any blood?

The two of them subconsciously looked at each other and both saw the meaning of each other's eyes.

Something happened!

Then, the two of them quickly stepped into the secret room. As soon as they walked in, a strong smell of blood came to their faces.

It's a mess.

The entire secret room had just experienced a big battle, with pits and broken walls everywhere.

Blood was everywhere, and three corpses were lying on the ground not far away. When they saw the clothes on the three corpses, the two looked at each other again.

"This is not..."

Zhou Qiuning thoughtfully: "The three Taoist priests in the deep palace of Emperor Zhao?"

Li Beifeng looked at her: "You know each other?"

“See once!”

Zhou Qiuning narrowed his eyes slightly: "Emperor Zhao has lived in seclusion in the deep palace for many years to practice immortality. These three Taoist priests are the three Taoist priests invited by Emperor Zhao. I heard that these three Taoist priests have magic power and are well versed in the way of immortality."

"Oh!"

Hearing this, Li Beifeng sneered: "Why are they dead after being deeply versed in the way of immortality?"

"It seems that the so-called immortality is fake!"

Zhou Qiuning shook his head slightly, as if he was a little regretful: "I heard that these three Taoist priests are not only good at practicing, but also can refine the immortal pills for prolonging life... Unfortunately, I didn't have the chance to see it!"
To be continued...
