The quick travel journey of the cold heroine

Shui Zhizi should be thankful that every good deed she did was genuine. Otherwise, let alone redressing Shui Zhizi's grievances, it would have been lucky for her that he didn't kill her on the spot.

"Yes. I obey your order."

"Find a way to save Ying Wan'er's life. Even if she has committed many mistakes, she is still General Ying's daughter."

"Yes." Zheng Hong agreed verbally, but he was laughing at himself in his heart. He was afraid that Ying Wan'er's life and death was not up to him. If the Son of Water did not want Ying Wan'er to live, she could do something even more ruthless.

The emperor seemed to have forgotten that Shui Zhizi said that she would even sacrifice her life for revenge, or rather, the emperor remembered it, but he did not take it seriously.

Your Majesty has never seen Shui Zhizi holding a torch to burn Mingyuan Hall, nor has he seen Shui Zhizi holding a sword and stabbing Xiao Wu mercilessly.

He had never seen Shui Zhizi stab himself with a hairpin without hesitation, so he didn't understand Shui Zhizi's stubbornness and madness.

"Okay, you can go back too. The prince has been confined forever. You have always been very smart, and there are many things you don't need me to teach you."

"Yes, I will withdraw first."

It was the first time that the emperor saw Zheng Hong so decadent, but he thought it was normal.

After so many years, he finally found a girl he liked, but she turned out not to be meant to be with him. It was understandable that he couldn't accept it for a while.

The emperor did not think that Zheng Hong's feelings for Shui Zhizi were deep. He was just temporarily attracted by the novelty of seeing a woman who was different from the well-behaved noble ladies in the capital.

With a background like theirs, almost everyone will have such an experience.

Zheng Hong also felt that he had never thought that there would be any result with Shui Zhizi from the beginning. Now everything just returned to the starting point. It was no big deal.

Until he saw Shui Zhizi with red and swollen eyes at the gate of Prince Zhan’s mansion.

"Your Majesty, I have something to ask you."

Zheng Hong tried his best to look less embarrassed. He said calmly, "Let's go in and talk."

Seven years later, Shui Zhizi stepped into Prince Zhan's Mansion again. Everything that happened when she woke up from Prince Zhan's Mansion seven years ago was still vivid in her mind.

"When did you recover your memory?" Since you have lost your memory, why don't you forget it forever?

Shui Zhizi stared into Zheng Hong's eyes, "I have never lost my memory before."

Buzz! Zheng Hong heard a loud noise in his head, and the cup he was about to hand to Shui Zhizi fell to the ground.

The tea splashed on both of them, but neither of them moved.

Zheng Hong wanted to see a hint of guilt in Shui Zhizi's eyes, but Shui Zhizi's eyes were not as calm as before.

"Why did you lie to me?"

Shui Zhizi went to Zheng Hong to ask for something, and she didn't want to have any conflict with Zheng Hong.

But at this moment, seeing Zheng Hong looking as if he had been betrayed by someone, Shui Zhizi felt extremely ironic and her anger was out of control.

"Are you kidding me, Your Majesty? Under those circumstances, if I hadn't told you that I had lost my memory, would Your Majesty have allowed me to stay in the capital? Or would Your Majesty have allowed me to live?"

Shui Zhizi didn't understand why Zheng Hong had the right to look at her like that? She had never betrayed anyone all the way to now, and she had a clear conscience.

"Is this how you think of me?" Zheng Hong gripped the edge of the table.

"Your Highness, I came to you today to ask for a favor, not to tell you about the past." Shui Zhizi tried her best to remain calm. She came here to ask for help, not to offend anyone.

Shui Zhizi didn't want to mention the past because she couldn't speak to Zheng Hongping calmly if she did.

"Answer my question!" Zheng Hong roared.

Zheng Hong never thought that Shui Zhizi had not lost her memory, and he never thought that Shui Zhizi would lie to him like this.

Shui Zhizi clearly remembered everything, but she could see that I couldn't help myself from falling in love with her. Was she thinking of me as a joke?

Of course, Zheng Hong was just overthinking. Shui Zhizi never thought that Zheng Hong, who knew everything, would treat her differently.

Even though Zheng Hong agreed to the marriage proposal immediately at the banquet today, Shui Zhizi still thought that Zheng Hong only wanted to get Pengyuan Hall and Kangning Tower.

"Your Highness, what do you think of me? You clearly knew everything. You knew that there was another reason for Li Chuan's amnesia and that the fire in our house was deliberately caused by someone. But what did you do?

You cleaned up the aftermath for the arsonist, concealed all the facts from Li Chuan, and made Li Chuan work for you like a fool?

You never thought that the people who were burned to death were Li Chuan's parents, and you never thought that it was our home that was destroyed.

Just to prevent us from disturbing Li Chuan, fearing that we would help him recover his memory, you had already thought of how to deal with us when you brought us out of the fire.

Because as long as Li Chuan gets promoted, it will help your position, so you can ignore two lives.

My Lord, how do you want me to see you?

If I hadn't told you that I had lost my memory, wouldn't my fate have been the same as my elder brother and his wife, where you would have sent me out of the capital and I would never have the chance to take revenge again?

If I hadn't worked so hard to make money and opened Mingyuan Hall and Kangning Building, so that you high-ranking people like me could see me, my parents' lives would still be remembered and taken seriously.

"Your Majesty, what right do you have to question me now? What qualifications do you have to question me?"

Shui Zhizi gasped for breath. She had been holding this resentment in her heart for seven years.

“Your Highness, you should be thankful, because no matter what, you saved me, my elder brother and his wife from the fire, so even if you settle the matter for Ying Wan’er, I am still grateful to you.

Otherwise, when the prince's men came to the door, Mingyuan Hall and Kangning Tower would have already belonged to the prince."

Zheng Hong turned pale under Shui Zhizi's questioning. Not a word Shui Zhizi said was wrong.

If Shui Zhizi had not lost her memory and wanted revenge, he would have found ways to send Shui Zhizi away.

If Shui Zhizi had not been outstanding enough, worked hard enough, and appeared in front of him five years ago, he would have probably forgotten about Shui Zhizi. How could he treat Shui Zhizi differently?

Shui Zhizi never owed him anything. The reason why Shui Zhizi was able to deceive him with her amnesia for so many years was because Shui Zhizi was smart and didn't reveal any clues.

The reason why Shui Zhizi could make him look at her differently was that Shui Zhizi herself was outstanding enough.

He had no right to question Shui Zhizi. He had brought this upon himself.

He had gotten everything he had ever wanted and defeated the prince. What else could he not be satisfied with?

A very long time passed before Zheng Hong raised his head. The expression on his face had calmed down, but his face was still pale.

"So what does Boss Shui want from me now?"

While Zheng Hong was silent, Shui Zhizi also tried to calm herself down.

"It was the prince who helped Ying Wan'er back then, so the prince must have a witness. I beg the prince to hand over the witness."
