The quick travel journey of the cold heroine
Chapter 15: The Daughter of a Traitor (5)
Then the things that Si Qingquan had previously ignored gradually became clear.
Whenever he came to Shui Zhizi's palace, Jasmine had to stay outside. Amo also said that Jasmine usually stayed with Shui Zhizi.
The incense, tea leaves and even the books she usually used to pass the time in Shuizhi's uterus were replaced with his favorite ones at some point.
Shui Zhizi had a long hairpin that she wore, but she frowned when she found out it was a gift from Shui Fengguo, and she never wore it again.
Also, although Si Qingquan stayed overnight in Shui Zhizi's palace, nothing happened between them. Shui Zhizi would always fall asleep early when Si Qingquan went to wash up.
But how could there be such coincidences every day? It was simply that Shui Zhizi knew his entanglement and took the initiative to cooperate.
When Si Qingquan finally realized Shui Zhizi's intentions, the feeling in his heart was almost indescribable. It was sour and bitter, but he still wanted to indulge in it.
Therefore, it was really not that Si Qingquan was weak-willed; his downfall was almost inevitable.
Just like the food is still hot now, but in fact the meal time has passed for a long time, which can only mean that Shui Zhizi has been preparing it. Si Qingquan certainly knows that the servants in the palace are the ones who really do the work, but if there is no arrangement by the master, how can they do it so considerately.
"No need to be so polite, just sit down and eat together." Si Qingquan stopped Shui Zhizi who was about to salute.
Shui Zhizi did not refuse, but she was of course very nervous while eating this meal. What happened today could be said to be the biggest mistake she had made in this world so far.
On the contrary, Si Qingquan felt happy after discovering Shui Zhizi's discomfort, even though he still had many questions in his mind. After all, Shui Zhizi had always been calm and composed in front of Si Qingquan.
Even when facing Si Qingquan's suspicion, she could remain calm. As long as Si Qingquan didn't ask, she would never explain, and she would never act as if she had done something wrong like she did today.
Si Qingquan finally finished eating while Shui Zhizi was restless. Shui Zhizi was in a state of anxiety. She really lost her sense of propriety today. She was ready for Si Qingquan to scold her or punish her. But she just hoped that Si Qingquan would not take back his little trust because of her behavior today.
"Shui Zhizi, was it intentional to mobilize the servants in the palace?" Si Qingquan finally spoke, but the question he asked was completely beyond Shui Zhizi's expectations, but it was not a difficult question to answer.
"Yes."
"Is the reason for doing this the one I thought?" In order to allow him to arrange his own personnel in the palace without attracting attention.
"Yes." Afraid that Si Qingquan wouldn't believe her, Shui Zhizi's eyes were full of sincerity.
"How was such a big arrangement accomplished?" Almost every palace left him room for maneuver. Si Qingquan asked himself that he would not be able to do this if he were in Shui Zhizi's position.
"I have read all the books recording the life stories of the palace ladies."
Si Qingquan was almost dumbfounded. He looked at it and realized that it was just three simple words, but it was so hard to do it. "Did you read it by yourself?" Si Qingquan confirmed.
"Don't worry, Your Majesty. I was the only one who saw it. No one else knew about it."
Finding that Shui Zhizi had misunderstood, Si Qingquan spoke out for the first time to explain, "That's not what I meant. It doesn't matter if someone knows. In the future, find some reliable people to help you with such matters."
After saying this, Si Qingquan realized that Shui Zhizi had no one to rely on in the palace. Perhaps because she was afraid that he would misunderstand her, Shui Zhizi had never tried to win over anyone since she entered the palace. She even treated Ah Mo the same as other palace maids, never getting close to him, but also not being too distant. Her personal maid was like that, so Shui Zhizi had no one to rely on.
But Shui Zhizi just said yes and didn't mention her own difficulties.
Shui Zhizi's appearance made Si Qingquan feel uneasy for the first time, thinking about the people he had sent to keep an eye on Shui Zhizi in secret.
Thinking about the question he was going to ask next, Si Qingquan felt even more ashamed, but he had to ask this question.
"On the wedding night, you, the wound on your neck..." When Si Qingquan gave Shui Zhizi that kind of medicine and wanted to strangle her to death, he never thought that one day he would be so embarrassed.
Shui Zhizi was as smart as ever. She answered Si Qingquan's question hastily before he finished asking, "I know everything. The emperor is right. I am the daughter of Shuifeng Kingdom. It is the wisest choice for the emperor not to touch me."
There was no expression of embarrassment on Shui Zhizi's face. Of course, it would have been better if the way she described herself in front of Si Qingquan had not changed.
But after getting the answer, Si Qingquan no longer noticed Shui Zhizi's panic, because Si Qingquan himself was even more panicked.
Today, when Si Qingquan heard Shui Zhizi say to him in the meeting hall, "You are the emperor, you have all kinds of medicines," he realized that Shui Zhizi probably knew everything from the beginning."
Now that his guess has been confirmed, Si Qingquan doesn't show it on his face, but the constant cold sweat on his palms shows how nervous he is.
This nervousness was not because she was afraid that Shui Fengguo would know about this, nor was it because she knew that she had revealed her true colors in front of Shui Zhizi so early, but because she knew that Shui Zhizi had known from the very beginning that she wanted to kill her.
Si Qingquan opened his mouth again and again, he wanted to explain, but found that he could not refute. It was true that he wanted to kill Shui Zhizi at the beginning, and even just now he still wanted to kill Shui Zhizi, but, but it was also true that he liked Shui Zhizi,
Si Qingquan had never thought that he could be so nervous in front of Shui Zhizi. There was no point in saying anything now, and Si Qingquan didn't even have the courage to ask any more questions.
"I'm sorry." This was the first time Si Qingquan apologized to Shui Zhizi, and it was also the first time he didn't dare look Shui Zhizi in the eye. Because even if Si Qingquan was given another chance, he would still do it, because he was the emperor of David.
Shui Zhizi was flattered, so they were going to have a showdown, right? Then let's make it clear all at once.
"Your Majesty, you did nothing wrong. I am the daughter of Shuifeng Kingdom. You have not done anything wrong since I entered the palace." Shui Zhizi looked at Si Qingquan and did not allow him to avoid her.
"I chose to help you from the beginning because someone believed that you were a qualified king and would be a good emperor in the future. Everything I have seen since I entered the palace has proved that person's vision. Your Majesty, you have done nothing wrong. You must continue to move forward with determination."
Si Qingquan was very rational and kind to the daughter of Shuifeng Kingdom. Si Qingquan was not a god, nor did he have such an adventure as hers. He did not know her true identity. From Si Qingquan's point of view, it was understandable that he did anything to Shuifeng Kingdom's daughter in order to protect himself.
