"Your Highness!"

Outside the capital, somewhere in a military camp.

A figure hurriedly stepped into the military camp.

At this moment, Zhao Jing was sitting in the military camp tent. Although he was sitting, his face always looked uneasy.

He frowned slightly, seeming to be thinking about something. Until someone interrupted his thoughts, he raised his head, looked at the person, and said in a deep voice: "What's wrong?"

"Your Highness, we have searched all villages and hiding places within a radius of dozens of miles..."

The visitor whispered: "I found nothing."

Hearing this, Zhao Jing's face darkened.

"Nothing found? There are so many of you and you can't even find anyone? What's the use of leaving you all alone?"

The visitor was so frightened that he knelt down and said tremblingly: "Your Highness, we have laid a dragnet on the way back to Beijing. There are countless spies guarding the intersections on the way back to Beijing. Once there is news about the eldest princess, we will know it as soon as possible...

…”

Zhao Jing's gloomy expression never faded away, and there was a deep look of worry in his eyes.

"Get down!"

"yes!"

After the visitors left, Zhao Jing, who was sitting in the military camp, could no longer sit still.

Zhao Ying's body was still not found, and Zhao Jing's uneasiness became more intense.

Why is there no body? Who rescued her?

What does the other party... want to do?

A flash of thought seemed to appear in his mind, and Zhao Jing suddenly looked at a guard on the side: "Where is He Jing?"

The guard looked embarrassed and shook his head.

Zhao Jing's heart sank, and an ominous premonition surged into his heart.

In order to deal with Zhao Ying, he almost sent out all the masters around him. As for Li Beifeng, he sent He Jing there. He asked He Jing to disguise himself as him, and then cooperated with his troops to capture Li Beifeng.

But now, the news coming over there has not caught Li Beifeng, and He Jing's whereabouts are even more unknown.

This means that something happened to He Jing!

Zhao Jing looked coldly. If nothing else happened, He Jing should have fallen into Li Beifeng's hands.

he……

At this moment, an incredible idea suddenly appeared in Zhao Jing's mind.

Could it be Li Beifeng who rescued Zhao Ying?

As soon as this idea emerged, Zhao Jing quickly shook his head.

It shouldn’t be. According to reports from people below, although the person who rescued Zhao Ying was a young man, similar to Li Beifeng, his martial arts were unfathomable and his strength was extremely powerful.

Li Beifeng, it is impossible for him to have such skill.

When he was still in Chaoyang County half a year ago, Zhao Jing knew Li Beifeng's strength. Although his kung fu was good, it was far from his ability to have such strength.

Even in just half a year, he would not have made such rapid progress.

That……

Who is that young man?

Also, what is his relationship with Li Wushuang?

Thinking of this, Zhao Jing became more and more uneasy. The appearance of Li Wushuang doubled Zhao Jing's sense of crisis. Li Wushuang wanted to kill him, but he almost died!

If Commander Zheng hadn't appeared in time, I'm afraid...

Mentioning Commander Zheng, Zhao Jing's expression changed slightly. He is Zhao Ying's master. Once he knows that something happened to Zhao Ying, I'm afraid...

Zhao Jing could no longer sit still, and he suddenly looked at a general next to him.

This general is not very old, but has a serious face and is wearing armor. This man is none other than Chen Xi, the general of the Lin Army outside the capital.

"General Chen!"

"Your Highness, please speak!"

General Chen cupped his hands and said.

"This time, I'm afraid I need General Chen's help!"

Zhao Jing's eyes fell on him and he spoke slowly.

Chen Xi frowned slightly, with a hint of hesitation on his face: "Your Highness, I'm afraid..."

He was originally from His Highness the Crown Prince's lineage. In the past, his mentor had been grudged by His Highness the Crown Prince. Therefore, Chen Xi was quite close to His Highness the Crown Prince on weekdays.

Only this time, Chen Xi felt a little uneasy.

His Royal Highness found him today, and his purpose may not be simple.

Although I have guessed something in my mind, this matter is indeed too important.

Now that His Majesty is still here, Your Highness wants to...

This is tantamount to rebellion!

Therefore, Chen Xi hesitated.

"General Chen has concerns?"

Zhao Jing glanced at him.

Chen Xi said in a deep voice: "Your Highness, this matter is too important. I'm afraid I can't make the decision..."

"General Chen, you are the general of the Capital Guard Army. The Capital Guard Army is at your disposal. Why can't you be the master?"

Chen Xi said: "Although I am in charge of the guarding army, if I do not have His Majesty's will, if I dispatch troops and horses at will, it is tantamount to treason..."

Chen Xi looked embarrassed: "Your Highness, I'm afraid..."

Zhao Jing stared at him coldly: "General Chen, do you think there is a better choice now?"

"I came to see you today because I already had plans!"

Chen Xi was stunned for a moment, then a look of shock appeared on his face, "Your Highness, you..."

"Zhao Ying was hit by my Five Poison Powder and will definitely die!"

Zhao Jing said coldly: "Once she dies, Qin Tiansi will be leaderless. In this imperial city, it is inevitable to be alone..."

"Now, I need General Chen's help. General Chen, you have to think about it..."

Chen Xi's eyes suddenly jumped.

This news made his heart sink and he looked a little shocked.

The eldest princess is dead?

Chen Xi's breathing was a little rapid: "Do you take your Highness seriously? Is the eldest princess really dead?"

"After being hit by Wudu Powder, do you think there is still a way to survive?" Zhao Jing sneered.

"Five Poison Powder..."

Chen Xi's eyes jumped a few times quickly.

This is the most frightening poison in the world. Although it is not the most poisonous, it is definitely the most difficult to cure.

No, it has no solution!

Anyone who is poisoned by this poison will definitely die.

So, the eldest princess is dead?

So……

A trace of panic appeared in Chen Xi's eyes, and he guessed the purpose of His Highness the Crown Prince.

Your Highness, he is about to take action!

As a member of His Highness's lineage, Chen Xi had indeed heard some rumors a long time ago that His Highness and the eldest princess were not getting along, and there would be a big conflict between them sooner or later. But he didn't expect that this day would come so quickly.

The eldest princess lost?

Doesn't this mean...

Your Highness has no rivals anymore?

In an instant, countless thoughts flashed through Chen Xi's mind. After quickly weighing the pros and cons, he made a decisive choice.

"I am willing to follow His Highness and obey His orders!"

"very good!"

A smile appeared on Zhao Jing's face: "When I succeed, I will definitely live up to General Chen's great help!"
