Chapter 616: The Night Is Late(1/3)
Night gradually falls.
The streets of Sunset City are gradually becoming lively.
War and famine did not make the largest city in Beizhou desolate. On the contrary, it became more and more prosperous.
The people in the city are immersed in the dream of a prosperous city, and those so-called talented people and beauties are praising the glory of the sunset city.
Vaguely, it seems that one can see the shadow of the former capital of Northern Qi more than ten years ago.
The same was true in the Northern Qi Dynasty that year.
Time, I'm afraid, is really reincarnation.
On the street.
Li Beifeng walked alone on the street.
The darkness of night gradually hid his figure.
In his mind, he recalled what the Taoist nun had told him before leaving.
Their old Northern Qi party is about to start a rebellion, and once they reach an agreement with Prince Zhaonan of the south of the Yangtze River, it will be time for them to restore their country.
At that time, the Taoist nun will reveal his identity as the Prince of Northern Qi to the world!
In the name of being the crown prince of Northern Qi, he won over the old Northern Qi troops and informed the former Northern Qi subjects to formally raise troops to restore the country.
The original plan of the Taoist nuns and others was to surround Li Beifeng and ascend the throne and proclaim himself emperor when the country was restored!
However, this plan was temporarily rejected by Li Beifeng!
proclaim oneself emperor?
Li Beifeng couldn't accept the identity that was too mysterious.
He, an ordinary citizen, somehow became the prince of the Northern Qi Dynasty, and he also wanted to ascend the throne and proclaim himself emperor for no reason...
There was no such plan in his original life plan. Now that he has reached this stage, he will face it sooner or later.
but……
Li Beifeng still needs some time.
He still doesn't know how to be an emperor, and more importantly, proclaiming himself emperor too early may not be a good idea!
Even if the old Northern Qi party raises troops, the restoration plan may not go smoothly. Breaking through the blockade of Beizhou is not an easy task in itself.
What's more, I'm afraid we will have to face Dazhao's counterattack by then.
As the prince of the Northern Qi Dynasty, Li Beifeng has lived among the people for many years, which has a somewhat sad atmosphere.
As a prince, he can evoke the resonance between the old Northern Qi party and the people.
Ascending the throne too early will destroy this resonance.
Therefore, after everyone weighed it, they felt that what Li Beifeng said was reasonable.
Ascension to the throne and proclaiming himself emperor is temporarily on hold!
…
After gradually coming back to his senses, Li Beifeng stopped and looked at the bustling streets of Sunset City in front of him, silently.
Once the Taoist nuns and the others raise an army, their first target will naturally be the largest city in Beizhou!
Sunset City!
If they can capture Sunset City quickly and cut off the connections between counties, their plan to raise troops will be half successful!
but……
How can Sunset City be so easy to win?
Once it falls into a melee, the harmonious scene in front of us today will be broken.
The prosperous Sunset City will fall into war and panic. By then, it is unknown how many innocent people will be implicated.
In wars, it is always the common people who suffer!
Until now, everything Li Beifeng has done has been driven to this point by his identity and responsibility.
He is still a little confused... is everything he is doing right or wrong?
Does the so-called restoration of the country go from one extreme to another?
He doesn't know!
There is no answer either!
The fragmented memories in his mind gradually dissipated, and Li Beifeng raised his head and looked not far away.
Not far away on the street, an inn stood quietly in a dark environment.
Li Beifeng stepped forward and stepped into the inn.
"Sir, would you like to stay in a hotel or work in a hotel?"
Warm greeting from the shopkeeper.
"Look for someone!" Li Beifeng said softly.
The shopkeeper first stared at Li Beifeng for a moment, and then asked: "Who is the guest looking for?"
"A girl named Murong!"
"It turns out to be Mr. Li!"
The shopkeeper immediately understood and said respectfully: "Mr. Li, Miss Murong is in the guest room on the third floor..."
Taking the house number from the shopkeeper's hand, Li Beifeng nodded slightly and glanced at the shopkeeper again.
Obviously, the shopkeeper did not recognize Li Beifeng.
Last year, when Li Beifeng first arrived in Sunset City, he stayed at this inn.
It's just that Li Beifeng had a disguise back then. Now that Li Beifeng shows his true face, the shopkeeper naturally doesn't recognize Li Beifeng.
Shaking his head slightly, Li Beifeng turned around and went upstairs.
The remaining shopkeeper glanced at Li Beifeng's back with confusion. He vaguely felt that the guest officer looked familiar, but he couldn't remember it for a while.
…
Third floor!
Li Beifeng slowly walked to the door of the room and looked down at the house number in his hand.
The room is right!
but……
Through the window, I saw darkness in the room.
There was no sound or movement.
The door was slightly closed, making no sound.
Where are people?
Asleep?
As if realizing something, Li Beifeng pushed the door gently.
The room door opened slowly in response!
A ray of dim light slowly projected into the room, slightly illuminating the dim floor.
In the empty and fragrant room, there was a faint hint of familiar atmosphere.
The corners of Li Beifeng's mouth raised slightly!
Are you going to play this game with him again?
He took steps forward and entered the room.
Then, he closed the door smoothly.
Locked!
Then, he went to the table in front of the screen and sat down, then poured himself a cup of tea.
After slowly taking a sip of tea, I glanced behind the screen.
No movement!
There seems to be no one in the room!
Li Beifeng drank tea quietly, standing still.
There was silence in the room, and even breathing could be heard clearly.
If the enemy doesn't move, I won't move!
Li Beifeng continued to drink tea by himself!
To be continued...
