Shui Qingli was heartbroken when he saw Zhou Yizhi unconscious.

"Princess, there is no need to be so sad. The reason why my senior brother is like this is because of Zhang Beixing?" There was a hint of blame in Chen Xuan's tone.

Zhang Beixing sneered: "You don't have to say that. We have different positions. There is nothing wrong with what I did."

Chen Xuan snorted coldly. Shui Qingli didn't want the two of them to have a conflict, so he quickly tried to smooth things over.

After returning to the living room, Chen Xuan continued to drink tea. He asked the servants to prepare some fruits and dishes, intending to keep Shui Qingli here for dinner.

Shui Qingli said it was too early for dinner and there was no need to do this. But Chen Xuan insisted, "It's rare for the princess to come here, so we have to discuss how to rescue the king."

Shui Qingli had no choice but to agree.

After a while, a servant ran in in panic.

Chen Xuan was furious: "What's the meaning of this? Can't you see I have a guest? You are so flustered, how can you be so unbecoming!"

The servant said tremblingly: "Master, something terrible has happened, otherwise I would not dare to disturb you."

"What makes you so panicked?" Chen Xuan asked.

"Yes...it was your senior brother Zhou Yi who pointed out that something happened." The servant stammered.

Upon hearing this, Chen Xuan stood up suddenly: "What did you say?" He could hardly believe his ears.

The servant trembled and said, "Just now a senior doctor said that Zhou Yizhi...died."

"What? How could this happen?" Chen Xuan's body swayed and he almost fell. He calmed himself down, asked the three to wait in the living room, and hurried to the backyard.

"Oh my God, how could this happen?" Shui Qingli exclaimed.

Zhang Beixing frowned and remained silent. Shui Qingli did not disturb him either.

After more than ten minutes, Chen Xuan came back with a look of pain on his face.

Shui Qingli asked cautiously: "Mr. Chen, could it be that Zhou Yizhi really..."

"Yes, my junior brother is dead. And he was murdered by someone." Chen Xuan's voice was filled with grief and anger.

This sudden news shocked Shui Qingli and made him feel unbelievable. What on earth was going on?

How could someone do this here? Is there something wrong with those doctors? Chen Xuan sat down on the sofa, his arms shaking uncontrollably.

His eyes immediately locked onto Zhang Beixing, and he roared, "Zhang Beixing, why did you want to harm my brother? What exactly are you up to? I really let a wolf into the house!"

His roar shocked the two girls, Shui Qingli and Shui Lili.

Zhang Beixing seemed to have expected him to say that, and his face remained calm. But in the eyes of the two girls, he looked more like he had done something wrong.

Shui Lili asked anxiously: "Zhang Beixing, please tell me what's going on?"

Chen Xuan said with great sorrow that he had kindly asked the three to go to see his senior brother, but he did not expect such a tragedy to happen. He knew Zhang Beixing's strength, and it must be Zhang Beixing who secretly killed his senior brother.

Shui Qingli also felt a little doubtful. She and Zhang Beixing were together at that time. Could it be that Zhang Beixing really had the ability to kill people silently?

"Princess, don't you know how powerful he is? He can take someone's life easily." Chen Xuan's words made Shui Qingli's heart tremble.

There was a flash of reluctance and grievance in Zhang Beixing's eyes, although it was fleeting, Shui Qingli still caught it. She began to wonder if Zhang Beixing was really wronged.

So she asked Chen Xuan: "Do you have any evidence? You can't convict based on mere speculation, right?"

Chen Xuan said angrily: "Do you still need evidence? You three are outsiders. The princess will definitely not harm my senior brother, so it can only be Zhang Beixing!" He stared at Zhang Beixing with resentful eyes.

Zhang Beixing sneered and did not make any excuses.

Chen Xuan turned to Shui Qingli and said, "Princess, you have disappointed me so much today. I hope you can give me an explanation. After all, you were the one who brought the person here." As he spoke, he actually shed tears.

Shui Qingli felt mixed emotions and said, "I want you to give me an explanation? I am in pain too. If I can't give you an explanation, do you want me to stay here forever?"

Chen Xuan remained silent, obviously agreeing.

Zhang Beixing suddenly asked: "Can you talk to me alone?"

Chen Xuan asked suspiciously: "What do you mean?"

"It's meaningless. If you don't want to talk, forget it." Zhang Beixing said lightly.

Chen Xuan nodded, then said to Shui Qingli, "Princess, you and your maid should go to another room to rest." Then, he loudly ordered the servants to take the two to room number three and keep them under strict guard.

Shui Qingli was in great pain when she entered the room, while Shui Lili kept blaming Zhang Beixing, saying that it was all his fault.

Shui Qingli stopped her: "Don't say anything, I believe Zhang Beixing is innocent."

"Miss, do you still trust him so much?" Shui Lili asked puzzledly.

Shui Qingli didn't say anything else, she knew she couldn't explain it clearly to the maid.

In the living room, Chen Xuan asked Zhang Beixing: "Tell me, what do you want to talk to me about?"

Zhang Beixing sneered, "You have calculated it very well. People say that the people of our Jiuzhou Empire are very cunning. I think you Lin people are no less capable than them."

Chen Xuan was stunned, then pretended to be confused: "I don't understand what you are talking about. Why would Shui Danian give me money? He and I are irreconcilable. I am only loyal to the king."

Zhang Beixing said no more, because he knew it was futile to say more. He just wanted to anger Chen Xuan and make him reveal his true colors.

"What? You have nothing to say?" Chen Xuan asked provocatively.

Zhang Beixing sneered and said nothing. This man is really good at disguise.

"With me, Zhang Beixing, here, do you think you can keep the three of us? If you really want to do this for their own good, you should make things clear." Zhang Beixing deliberately provoked Chen Xuan.

He wanted to know where Shui Danian's silver needle came from, and whether it was related to Chen Xuan. So he had to make the other party angry and force him to use his real means.

However, Chen Xuan did not say anything, but stared at Zhang Beixing coldly. Zhang Beixing was thinking in his heart, how can he reveal his true face?

So, Zhang Beixing resolutely stood up, announced that he would take the two ladies away, and claimed that he would solve the king's problem himself and there was no need for Chen Xuan to intervene.

"What? You want to leave? Can you leave?" Chen Xuan sneered. "I just want to see what you are capable of, just show it." Zhang Beixing was calm.

Chen Xuan instantly felt as if he had been fooled, and he cursed Zhang Beixing in his heart for being cunning. But since Zhang Beixing was seeking his own death, he would make him pay the price.

At this time, he clapped his hands lightly, and a door in the house opened. Four identical men walked out. They turned out to be quadruplets. They quickly surrounded Zhang Beixing on all sides.

Zhang Beixing keenly realized that these four people were by no means ordinary people and must be masters without a doubt.

Soon, they deployed a formation, and Zhang Beixing felt a blackness in front of his eyes, as if he was sucked into a dark hut. Chen Xuan had taken the opportunity to leave.

Zhang Beixing felt his body go numb as if he had been electrocuted, and his legs could not move. Then, he was carried by four people and taken into another room.

He was conscious, but his body could not move at all. He sighed in his heart, and did not expect that Chen Xuan had so many masters under his command.

In this room, four people quickly tied him up tightly with ropes. The more he struggled, the tighter the ropes were tied. Zhang Beixing was frustrated. Was he too careless or was he not strong enough?
At this time, Shui Qingli and Shui Lili were still waiting anxiously in the room.

After a while, Shui Qingli ordered his servants to check on Zhang Beixing, but the servants turned a deaf ear to him.

Shui Lili was furious: "The eldest princess is giving you orders, how dare you disobey?"

"I'm sorry, we only listen to Master Chen and no one else. It will be useless even if the king comes." The servant replied coldly.

Shui Lili was so angry that she gritted her teeth, but Shui Qingli advised her not to be angry.

She gradually felt regretful. She rushed here impulsively after receiving the call, but now it seemed that it was a wrong decision. She realized that Chen Xuan had set up a conspiracy and Zhang Beixing was probably wronged.

She expressed her analysis, and although there were many servants around her, she did not hide it.

Shui Lili thought what she said made sense. But what should she do next? Shui Qingli was also confused and could only leave it to fate.

At dusk, a servant brought food. Shui Qingli threw the food to the ground and said, "Call your master!"

"I'm sorry, our master is busy and has no time to see you." The servant replied.

"This is outrageous!" Shui Qingli was so angry that she was shaking all over. Shui Lili hurriedly supported her and advised her not to be angry anymore.

Shui Qingli said that if that was the case, she would not eat and wait and see what Chen Xuan could do to her.

Shui Lili felt it was a pity because the food looked good. She whispered, "Miss, I'm really hungry."

"Do you have any backbone? Look at what you have achieved!" Shui Qingli scolded.

Shui Lili didn't dare to say anything more, as she knew the princess's temper very well.

The servants reported this to Chen Xuan, who frowned. Not eating? How could this be possible? But he believed that the other party was just trying to scare him, and he would probably obey tomorrow.

However, in the morning of the next day, Shui Qingli told Shui Lili that she must insist on the hunger strike no matter what. If she thought that life here was not bad, she would be easily deceived.

"I never thought that this beast would be so heartless as to imprison the princess here." Shui Lili said angrily.

"I guess he has benefited from Shui Da Nian." Shui Qingli guessed.

"But why? He has everything he needs." Shui Lili asked puzzledly.

Shui Qingli shook her head. She didn't know the reason either.

Shui Lili suggested Shui Qingli to call for help, but Shui Qingli thought it was unnecessary: ​​"I guess it won't work."

Shui Lili took out her cell phone and tried it, but there was no signal. "So this beast had already made preparations and lured us into the trap, but we just fell for it," Shui Qingli said bitterly.

"But Miss, why is there still no news about Zhang Beixing?" Shui Lili asked worriedly.

"I guess he is also locked in a room. Although he is very capable, Chen Xuan may be even more capable, otherwise he would not dare to do this." Shui Qingli analyzed.

After listening to Shui Qingli's analysis, Shui Lili felt even more distressed. Could they just sit here and wait for death? Shui Qingli also felt a lot of pressure. The recent series of events almost made her collapse. And her only support, Zhang Beixing, might also be in trouble now.

Zhang Beixing was imprisoned in a room, alone.

Soon, a robot quietly brought him food and water, but he was unable to communicate with the robot at all.

His mind was full of how to escape from this predicament, and his heart was thinking of the two girls who must be waiting anxiously.

However, the defense of this place seemed impeccable, and his body was tightly bound, making it extremely difficult to escape.

He felt extremely frustrated and secretly swore in his heart that once he escaped, he would make that beast pay the price.

At this time, Chen Xuan was making phone calls non-stop, and the one he called most often was to Shui Danian.

Shui Danian was secretly pleased when he heard the news. He said that he did not want to harm his niece, but she was restless, so he had to teach her a lesson.

"Lord, what should I do next?" Chen Xuan asked.

"You just need to trap Zhang Beixing. As for the two women, find a reason to release them in a few days." Shui Danian ordered.

In Shui Danian's opinion, he couldn't really do anything to Shui Qingli. Although he hated her to death in his heart, he had to pretend to love her in front of outsiders. Otherwise, people would suspect his ambition to usurp the throne.

It was late at night, but Chen Xuan couldn't fall asleep, so he got up and lit a cigarette. He took a deep puff, and felt a little uncomfortable. What he did went against his conscience, which made him feel very unhappy. But Shui Danian had a handle on him, so he had to obey.

Recalling last night, Shui Danian sent someone to find him, but the man couldn't get in at all. He just passed a message to him through the security guard. Chen Xuan was shocked when he learned about it, and hurriedly made several phone calls, and finally decided to meet the special envoy. The special envoy conveyed Shui Danian's intention, which disrupted his plan. He had many masters in his family, and he planned to avenge Shui Dazhou, but he didn't expect that he had been targeted by Shui Danian.

Thinking of the awkward expression he had when facing Shui Qingli during the day, he believed that Zhang Beixing must have seen through his disguise.

Late at night, Wu Jinhua suddenly had a premonition that something might have happened to Zhang Beixing. She lived with Zhu Xiaoling, who advised her not to think too much and not to disturb his sleep by calling so late. But Wu Jinhua decided to give it a try.

However, the other end of the line heard a sound indicating that the phone was turned off. Her heart sank. Could it be that her premonition had really come true? She told Zhu Xiaoling about this result, and Zhu Xiaoling also began to get a little nervous.

Wu Jinhua was so anxious that she put on her clothes and rushed to Linguo. Zhu Xiaoling stopped her and advised her not to be impulsive. This was not a trip, but a trip abroad. How could it be so easy?

Wu Jinhua also knew that she was a little impulsive, so she suddenly hugged Zhu Xiaoling and cried about her worries. Zhu Xiaoling hugged her tightly and comforted her to try calling again during the day.

After finally getting through the night, Zhang Beixing opened his eyes. He was tied up and couldn't sleep in bed. He had never been so miserable before and was filled with frustration.

Wu Jinhua called him countless times, but could not get through. She made up her mind to go to Linguo to find Zhang Beixing and immediately started to go through the formalities. (End of this chapter)
