Chapter 65 Father and daughter recognize each other
Qiaoguo, however, suffered two miscarriages due to her own actions.
The scars all over his body couldn't be hidden at all.
If King Zhao were to investigate, he would certainly be held responsible, and might even lose his life.
What should I do? Wang Li was extremely anxious.
Why am I so unlucky! I bought a maid, and it just so happens that she is King Zhao's child!
He suddenly thought of a solution.
If Qiaoguo dies and her body cannot be found, does that mean there's no way to prove anything?
Wang Li thought about it more and more and it seemed reasonable.
In fact, people often make foolish decisions in emergency situations.
He didn't even consider that so many people in the Wang family knew about Qiaoguo (a type of fruit).
If Qiaoguo goes missing, King Zhao will definitely suspect that he was killed by him, and then he will only suffer a worse fate.
But Wang Li's mind was now filled with thoughts of killing Qiao Guo, and he actually did it.
Wang Li went straight into Qiaoguo's bedroom and saw that she was still lying in bed.
When Qiaoguo saw Wang Li enter, her eyes showed fear.
Wang Li told Qiaoguo to get up and follow him. Qiaoguo had been beaten for so many years and was terrified, so she dared not disobey and followed Wang Li directly.
Only after stepping outside did I hear the sounds of people and horses making a ruckus.
What happened?
Qiaoguo was puzzled, but she didn't dare to ask Wang Li. She just obediently followed him.
She had just miscarried and was beaten, and her body was not fully recovered. Wang Li dragged her along, and every step she took caused her excruciating pain, but she gritted her teeth and dared not make a sound.
Wang Li led her to the pond.
This place is in a remote location and is unguarded.
Qiaoguo was wondering why Wang Li wanted to bring her here when she saw Wang Li turn around, his eyes hardening, and his two large hands reaching directly towards Qiaoguo's neck.
Qiaoguo was shocked. Before she could resist, she felt her neck being tightly gripped, making it impossible for her to breathe.
After a short while, Qiaoguo's face turned bright red, and she felt her consciousness drifting away from her.
Just as she was dying, Qiaoguo suddenly felt her neck being loosened. She involuntarily took a deep breath, and a large amount of fresh air rushed into her lungs, making her fully awake.
She greedily inhaled the fresh air, clutching her neck, as her vision gradually cleared.
She saw two men in black forcing Wang Li to kneel on the ground, Wang Li's face ashen.
The sound of horses' hooves came from not far away, and a tall, middle-aged man on horseback led a group of people to come.
One of the men in black bowed to the man on horseback: "Your Highness, my young lady was worried that things might go wrong, so she specially sent us to rescue Miss Qiaoguo."
"This is Miss Qiaoguo, and this is Wang Li. When we arrived, Wang Li almost strangled Miss Qiaoguo to death. Your Highness, please handle this as you see fit," the man in black said, pointing to Qiaoguo and Wang Li.
At this moment, Wang Li was trembling all over.
Thinking to myself, it's over, everything is over.
He attempted to kill Qiaoguo, but King Zhao witnessed it. How will King Zhao deal with him?
King Zhao looked at Qiaoguo and saw that she had bruises on her face, was pale, and had red marks on her neck from being strangled. She was also very thin.
However, the moment he saw Qiaoguo, he knew that Qiaoguo was his daughter.
Although she has grown up and been beaten, her childhood features are still faintly visible, especially the beauty mark under her right eye, which is exactly the same as her daughter's.
Seeing her daughter being treated like this, she was so heartbroken that she almost burst into tears.
King Zhao then turned his gaze to the man in black: "Who is your young lady?"
Is that the fortune-telling girl?
The man in black replied, "It is the girl who told His Highness's fortune today. The rest is up to His Highness; we must return to report."
Two men in black bowed to King Zhao, then flew up onto the eaves and disappeared.
After King Zhao left, Qin Wanying was still worried, so she sent two more shadows to protect Qiaoguo.
Previously, Shadow had gathered intelligence on major merchants in the capital and surrounding areas. One of Shadows was quite familiar with the layout of the Wang family's courtyard and quickly found Qiaoguo.
Just then, they saw Wang Li trying to strangle Qiaoguo and immediately saved him.
King Zhao watched the two men in black leave, wondering who this girl really was.
They actually manage to keep bodyguards; they must be quite skilled.
King Zhao felt a wave of fear wash over him.
Seeing the red marks on his daughter's neck, he knew that if the two guards had arrived even a moment later, his daughter, whom he had been searching for for so many years, would have died.
We really should thank that girl.
Qiaoguo watched from the side, wondering who the man on horseback was.
The man in black called this person "Your Highness".
Could he be some kind of royal relative?
King Zhao jumped off his horse and hurried to Qiaoguo's side, his eyes red-rimmed.
Qiaoguo had a premonition. Could it be...?
"Sirou, your father has finally found you..." King Zhao could no longer hold back his tears.
Sirou... Father...
Qiaoguo's pupils contracted.
Could it really be her family members looking for her?
She had heard some things about politics.
Could this person be King Zhao, and she herself be King Zhao's long-lost daughter?
She had heard about King Zhao's search for his daughter before.
She wished her parents were as good as King Zhao.
The Marquis of Dingbei's family has also never given up searching for their daughter.
However, she had been brainwashed by kidnappers since childhood and had come to believe that her parents did not want her anymore, so she gave up her plan to find her family.
Could it be that I am really King Zhao's daughter?
Qiaoguo did not show any sign of happiness.
Could it be that His Highness Prince Zhao has made a mistake? That I am not her daughter at all?
She simply didn't believe that anything good would happen to her.
In the past, every time she seemed to see hope, all that remained was a deeper despair.
“Sirou, don’t you remember your father? When you were five years old, you were probably secretly watching the lanterns when you were kidnapped. Your father searched for you so hard…” King Zhao’s face was filled with sorrow.
Upon hearing the words "lanterns," Qiaoguo knew in her heart that the person in front of her was indeed her father.
Because she was indeed abducted while watching the lantern festival.
Large tears streamed down Qiaoguo's face. She walked shakily toward King Zhao and slowly knelt down: "Father, am I really your daughter?"
King Zhao, tears streaming down his face, helped his daughter to her feet: "Yes, I recognized you the moment I saw your face. It's all my fault, I failed to protect you, I'm too late..."
The father and daughter embraced and wept.
The guards beside him were also deeply moved, knowing how long King Zhao had searched for his daughter and how much hardship and bitterness he had endured.
Only one person felt completely weak.
That person was Wang Li.
At that moment, Wang Li felt as if the sky had fallen.
The concubine he had been abusing and tormenting turned out to be the biological daughter that His Highness Prince Zhao had been searching for for many years.
He knew he was finished.
He tried to run away, but he had already been captured by King Zhao's men and had no way to escape.
