It was night, Yu Wenmo and Ming Luo disguised themselves and went straight to Zhao's house under the cover of darkness.

The guards of the Zhao family don't look very tight from the outside, but neither Ming Luo nor Yu Wenmo is careless. The Zhao family will never be so careless. It is normal to be loose on the outside and tight on the inside.

The two of them avoided everyone and searched Zhao's home inside and out, but found nothing. In the end, only one place was left with a light on.

That was Zhao Liquan's study, and he and Zhao Ying were talking at this time.

Apart from the servants and Zhao's father who was far away at the border, the Zhao family in Nuoda only had Zhao Liquan and Zhao Ying.

"You are a little absent-minded, what are you thinking about?"

Originally talking about another thing, Zhao Liquan suddenly changed the topic.

Zhao Ying raised her eyes and met Zhao Liquan's direct eyes.

He didn't want to hide it, so he said, "I'm wondering how long King Qi will endure? Is it today or tomorrow?"

Rather than talking about things that had become established facts, Zhao Ying felt that it was more interesting to place bets in her mind on the time when Feng Yunsu would take action.

Hearing this, Zhao Liquan also smiled, "He is indeed not a very patient person. Maybe he has already arrived tonight."

Zhao Ying raised her eyes to look at the roof, with a bit of expectation in her eyes, "Gu Linqiao is very lucky. In just half a month, she has already recovered more than half of her body. Her medicine is really miraculous."

Zhao Liquan said, "If it wasn't magical, how could they go all out to fight for it?"

Zhao Ying was actually a little confused, "Why go to all this trouble? Just tie her up and take her away. Why go through such a big circle? Grandpa, aren't you curious?"

"Ying'er, there are some things that you shouldn't interfere with."

Zhao Liquan's tone was a bit displeased, but Zhao Ying did not restrain himself. He looked at Zhao Liquan and said in a deep voice, "Grandpa, I don't want the Zhao family to be regarded as used and discarded minions. That's not the case with Feng Mingye." The Zhao family is no different in our hands, so why bother to struggle again?"

Zhao Liquan did not feel happy when he heard what he said. Instead, he had a gloomy face, "Ying'er, I hand over the Zhao family to you because I hope you will put the Zhao family first in the future."

"For example? Take care of the man in the cellar? Has Grandpa seen him? You know? That man is no longer a human being."

Zhao Ying stood up slowly, knowing that Zhao Liquan was displeased, but did not give in even an inch, "I don't know what grandfather wants, but I know that if you don't understand some things clearly, acting rashly will only destroy the Zhao family and the whole country." Everyone."

After saying this, Zhao Ying laughed at himself.

Who else is there in the Zhao family now?

Zhao Kun was dead and Mrs. Zhao was imprisoned. Except for Zhao Liquan, he and his father were the only ones left.

There is no one else.

But even if there is no one else, Zhao Ying doesn't want to be treated as a pawn in the hands of others. He must regain the initiative. He cannot be like Zhao Kun and be pushed out by Zhao Liquan to block the knife one day.

He never thought that if Zhao Kun died, his only son would be safe.

On the contrary, he will feel more dangerous.

"Get out! Reflect on yourself."

Zhao Liquan suddenly threw the teacup and kicked Zhao Ying out. In the past, this had never happened.

It was also the first time that Zhao Ying was treated like this, but he breathed a sigh of relief, as if this was normal.

He has returned from the battlefield where the knife's edge licked blood. The battlefield in the Zhao family's house will only become more intense and more murderous without blood.

Yu Wenmo and Ming Luo hid on the roof and watched Zhao Ying walk out of the study. They did not dare to take a step closer, but they heard Zhao Liquan's scolding clearly.

Zhao Ying walked a few steps and suddenly stopped.

He didn't raise his eyes, but there was a smile in his eyes.Sure enough, I couldn't bear it for a while.

Zhao Ying changed her steps, turned around and walked towards the pond, and then disappeared.

Ming Luo wanted to take a closer look, but was stopped by Yu Wenmo. He shook his head towards Ming Luo. Ming Luo instantly understood what he meant. The two stayed quietly for a while, and then left quietly under the night. , as if it had never happened.

The two of them walked around the city and made sure no one was following them before returning to Gu's house.

At this time, there was no light in Feng Yunsu's room, but Gu Linqiao's room was brightly lit.

When the two of them went there, hot tea had been prepared in the room. Gu Linqiao and Feng Yunsu did not rush to ask questions, and waited until they had rested enough before speaking.

"Zhao Ying made Zhao Liquan angry for some reason and was kicked out of the study by him. Then he went to the pond in the back garden. There should be a mechanism there, but he disappeared after he went there."

Ming Luo said truthfully, "Out of caution, Mr. Yuwen and I did not go forward to check."

After listening to this, Gu Linqiao and Feng Yunsu also felt that they were right in not stepping forward to check. Zhao Ying, who is so vigilant, should not let down his guard so much. It is very likely that he deliberately exposed the secret passage tonight, allowing Ming Luo and Yu Wenmo threw himself into the trap.

"Zhao Ying and Zhao Liquan may really be at odds!"

Yu Wenmo, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly said this, which surprised both Feng Yunsu and Gu Linqiao.

Ming Luo said subconsciously, "Zhao Ying is the future head of the Zhao family. Mr. Zhao would rather sacrifice his legitimate son Zhao Kun than treat Zhao Ying as his only son. How can there be discord between them?"

After saying that, the room suddenly became very quiet. Ming Luo changed his face instantly and quickly apologized, "It was my subordinate who overstepped his bounds. I shouldn't have talked nonsense."

At this time, Gu Linqiao said, "You are not talking nonsense, but most people think so."

So Ming Luo's thoughts are most of the ideas, and he is not a small group of people who take the wrong approach.

Feng Yunsu looked at Yu Wenmo and asked in a deep voice, "Master Yuwen, how can you tell that their ancestors and grandson are at odds?"

"It's not that their quarrel in the study aroused my suspicion, but that Zhao Ying is too smart. I don't think he will succumb to others, even if that person is his grandfather."

Yu Wenmo's words coincided with what Feng Yunsu was thinking.

Zhao Ying is not a person who has lived under others for a long time, let alone working for others in a daze. He is a clear-minded person. Because of this, he boldly speculates that Zhao Ying is not convinced by Zhao Liquan.

Even if there is harmony, it is superficial and too superficial.

But as long as there is a flaw, it is easy to defeat.

A group of people were still discussing the affairs of the Zhao family, when a burst of gongs and drums suddenly sounded outside the house.

"problem occurs?"

Ming Luo immediately went out to check.

After a while, he came back.

"What's going on outside? What's the commotion in the middle of the night?"

Feng Yun asked in a solemn voice, and Ming Luo replied truthfully, "My lord, there are people dead on the street."

"There are assassins?"

"No, they are chasing a black shadow. I just saw the dead and wounded patrol guards. They were bitten to death."

Hearing this, Gu Linqiao's expression changed instantly.

Looking up, she thought she met Yu Wenmo's eyes. In his eyes, she saw the same worry.
