The quick travel journey of the cold heroine

Chapter 179 The Princess Who Struggled to Protect Herself (33)

Xin Zhuyin sat there without saying anything, Shui Zhizi was also silent. She turned around and sat on the chair without saying anything, just looking at the two of them quietly.

Anyway, she was not the one kneeling. Did Xin Zhuyin keep silent because he thought this matter had nothing to do with him?

"Queen, I am not pregnant. The Sixth Prince is talking nonsense."

The Water Gardenia King was a little disappointed with the woman who was kneeling and trembling in front of him.

She was still wearing the clothes of a military commander, and he even wanted to protect her at the banquet just now.

Shui Zhizi initially thought that this was a unique woman.

"So you are now saying that there is nothing between you and the king?"

Shui Zhizi had a smile on her face, but anyone could see that the smile was only superficial.

Mei Fei's ears turned red, her face was embarrassed, and there were tears in her eyes. She couldn't say anything for a while.

Shui Zhizi suddenly lost interest in the only female general she had ever met.

She is a woman who can fight in the battlefield, but she doesn't even have the courage to take responsibility.

She sat upright and looked at Xin Zhuyin.

"Your Majesty, Concubine Mei, I don't care about the relationship between you two.

To be precise, I don't care how many concubines you have, Your Majesty. Even if you had countless concubines in the harem before you married me, it doesn't matter to me.

But Your Majesty, when you took Concubine Mei with you to the battle, did you ever consider that I had been married to you for less than three months and you and Concubine Mei did not yet have an official status.

You have not been shy in the army, allowing the Sixth Prince's men to find evidence against you and report you to me in public."

If Xin Zhuyin and this woman were being cautious in the army, how could Xin Zhuyin not say anything with her temper when the Sixth Prince provoked her today?

"Yes, I don't care how many women you have, Your Majesty, but don't forget that in addition to being your queen, I am also the Princess of Dongmeng.

Your Majesty, where is your respect for Dong Meng and Princess Dong Meng?

How do you want the officials of Lai State to view you and our relationship?

The king and the queen are not on the same page. Does the king think that this matter will not affect the overall situation of Lai State?"

Of course it had an impact, so after the matter was exposed by the Sixth Prince today, Xin Zhuyin did not get angry and embarrassed as before.

The officials in the court had long been dissatisfied with him because of this matter. Faced with this matter, he had no right to be angry at all.

But being scolded by Shui Zhizi like this, Xin Zhu was furious. He hated Shui Zhizi's arrogant attitude the most.

But today he had to endure his anger, as there were too many people in Lai State asking for help from Shui Zhizi recently.

"Now that things have come to this, Concubine Mei doesn't need to explain anything to me. I will keep my word and I will do whatever the king wants regarding the consort's appointment."

Shui Zhizi finally set her sights on Concubine Mei.

"I have only one request for you, don't look for trouble!

No matter your tears today are simply because of fear, or you want to gain something with the help of tears, it is all useless in front of me.

I will not live in the royal court permanently. As long as you don't take the initiative to appear in front of me, you and I will never interfere with each other.

do you understand? "

"Your Majesty, I understand." Under Shui Zhizi's expressionless gaze, Concubine Mei took the initiative to change her self-reference to that of a concubine addressing the queen.

Before, she always called herself a subject, based on her status as a military general.

"Of course, if Your Majesty has other concubines in the future, my request will be the same. As long as they don't take the initiative to cause trouble for me, we can always live in peace."

Shui Zhizi stood up and said to Xin Zhuyin.

Shui Zhizi clearly spoke sincerely, but Xin Zhuyin felt that Shui Zhizi was giving him a warning.

He was really too embarrassed. Shui Zhizi and the Dongmeng people she led were so powerful that he didn't even dare to vent his anger.

Xin Zhuyin had never felt so aggrieved in his life.

He could only express his dissatisfaction in a way that he thought Shui Zhizi would care about but others would not be able to find any fault with.

"If the Queen has nothing else to do, I will go to rest with Concubine Mei."

Shui Zhizi bowed and saw Xin Zhuyin off.

Shui Zhizi felt helpless when she saw Xin Zhuyin's even more aggrieved expression.

She said it all, she didn't care about Xin Zhuyin and other women.

Xin Zhuyin chose to stimulate her in this way, so of course she didn't react.

Shui Zhizi sighed. It seemed that the relationship between her and Xin Zhuyin was destined to get worse and worse.

Sometimes Shui Zhizi also wondered whether she should show weakness, but every time she faced Xin Zhuyin, she was told that whatever she did was her duty and he always looked at her with a blaming look, so it was difficult for her to remain calm towards him.

Forget it. Maybe it’s because their first meeting was unpleasant that they are destined to have difficulty getting along well in the future.

Shui Zhizi touched the place on her hand where she had been whipped and thought.

"Princess, you were assassinated, but the king didn't ask a single question."

Even though he was very angry, Yingfu said this only after he was sure that Xin Zhu's evildoer had gone far away.

"It doesn't matter whether you ask or not. Just investigate the assassination and don't think about these insignificant things." Shui Gardenia said nonchalantly.

Not to mention that she was assassinated by someone this time, even when she was whipped by Xin Zhuyin himself a year ago, Xin Zhuyin never asked a single question.

Even when she got married, her hands were still bandaged.

Yingfu ignored the injustice in his heart, obeyed the order and left. As the princess's safety was at stake, Yingfu did not want to delay even for a moment.

As for whether the king cares about the princess or not, as the princess said, it is insignificant.

Anyway, he can live a good life whether he cares about the princess or not.

Shui Zhizi knew that with Yingfu's ability and the means of the people she brought with her, it would not be too slow to solve the case.

But unexpectedly, Yingfu found out everything in just two days.

Shui Zhizi was a little surprised, "That guy confessed so quickly?"

Yingfu felt a little embarrassed, because she actually didn't do anything this time.

"The assassin was very tight-lipped and refused to confess at first.

It was King You who checked everyone who had contact with the assassin and found the clues."

Shui Zhizi was even more surprised. "Is the assassin the maid who has been staying in the royal court?"

"Yes."

Shui Zhizi curled the corner of her mouth. A prince who was not very favored by Xin Zhuyin could find out the relationship of a maid who had always lived in the royal court clearly.

Xin Zhuyou's hand stretched out much longer than she had imagined.

Shui Zhizi couldn't imagine what kind of turmoil would happen in the Lai royal court if Xin Zhuyou suddenly had ambitions one day.

"who is it?"

Yingfu gritted his teeth and said, "It's the Sixth Prince. The dagger that the maid held is poisoned. The Sixth Prince has the antidote."

No wonder Master Xin Zhu didn't stop the maid who was about to assassinate her.

"Princess, I don't want to let the Sixth Prince go." Because he really wanted to hurt the princess. The dagger was originally intended to stab the princess.

Shui Zhizi didn't want to let it go either. There is a difference between a hero saving a damsel in distress without intending to hurt anyone and a hero saving a damsel in distress with a real intention to hurt someone.
