The quick travel journey of the cold heroine

Shui Xian'er was the one who suffered in the previous life, so they were more on Shui Xian'er's side.

"But in fact, I haven't suffered much in these years." Shui Zhizi said to Lu Nian with a puzzled look.

This is the truth. Shui Zhizi is not the type of person who would suffer any loss or hardship.

"Princess, you got married only a month ago when King Lai went to the battlefield, taking a woman with him. When he came back, the woman was made his concubine, and she has been with King Lai for the past few years.

In the four years since you got married, have you spent four days with your husband?

And your hands, princess, in Dongmeng you don’t have to do anything, you can have whatever you want.

But now, you have calluses on your hands from farm work. Princess, the emperor and I already know about your experiences in Lai Kingdom over the years.

Princess, don't worry, we can go back soon, and you don't have to work so hard anymore."

Shui Zhizi looked down at her hands, which were obviously much rougher than they were four years ago, and felt mixed emotions.

“Lü Nian, Xin Zhuyin and I are just a marriage alliance, not an ordinary couple.

It is my own choice not to live in the royal court and meet Xin Zhuyin every day. As for doing farm work, do you think anyone would dare to force me to do it if I don't want to do it?"

Shui Zhizi felt only irony when looking at Lu Nian's distressed expression.

"Why are you always so self-righteous? Whoever leaves Dongmeng will be more pitiful?

Have you ever thought that if you send Shui Xianer here, she might never go back.

Not everyone is as lucky as I am to live to see King Lai pass away.

If Shui Xian'er can never go back in this life, what are you going to do?

At that time, when you see me living an easy life in Dongmeng, will you feel that Shui Xian'er is even more pitiful?

So do you want me to come and exchange Shui Xian'er for you again?"

Hearing Lu Nian talking about going home, Shui Zhizi didn't feel happy at all, she just felt terrified.

Shui Zhizi could fully imagine that if Shui Xian'er died of depression like in her previous life, Shui Hao and Lu Nian, who were going to take her home at this moment, would definitely blame her like they did in her previous life.

Faced with Shui Zhizi's questioning, Lu Nian hesitated. When he thought that he would never see the fifth princess again in this life, Lu Nian felt panic in his heart.

But the eldest princess has suffered so much, how could he bear to let her stay in Lai State and remarry?

"It's okay, Princess. You have already paved the way for the Fifth Princess. The Fifth Princess's path will be much easier than the path you had to take.

She will definitely be able to do well. When the emperor unifies the continent, I will come to take the fifth princess home, and then the four of us can be like our children again."

The sarcastic expression on Shui Zhizi's face never faded. It was too ridiculous that at this point, Lu Nian still hoped that they could be the same as when they were little.

"And the Fifth Princess herself has promised it. If she has promised it, she will definitely do it well. She will definitely be able to hold on until I come to take her home."

Water Gardenia suddenly realized.

So it was other people who agreed to it on their own initiative, and they were not forced by the king and his ministers. Even if anything happens to Shui Xian'er in the future, it has nothing to do with them.

The king and his subject haven't changed at all.

At this moment, Shui Zhizi suddenly felt that returning to Dongmeng was not so exciting anymore.

Can she really live the rest of her life in peace and stability when she goes back?

It is not easy for Shui Hao to realize her ambition. After she, the eldest princess, returns, what will she voluntarily do in the future?

Shui Zhizi didn't want to waste time talking to Lu Nian anymore.

"Where is the delegation?"

"They still have a month to reach the capital of Lai. I was worried about the princess, so I came here alone in advance."

“In that case, stay in the mansion first, don’t reveal your identity, and don’t leave the mansion before the delegation arrives.

I will return to the royal court immediately."

The news of Xin Zhuyin's death will be officially announced tomorrow. She must stabilize the royal court of Lai before the arrival of the delegation. The new king can only be Xin Zhuyou.

Otherwise Shui Xian'er would really be left in Lai State.

"Princess, I, we haven't seen each other for so many years. Princess, are you leaving now?"

Lu Nian was anxious. This was completely different from what he had imagined.

He told the princess in advance that she could go home, and the princess should be happy. Then they should talk all night long and talk about each other's lives over the years.

Why is the princess not happy, not surprised, and even so cold?

Shui Zhizi ignored Lu Nian, gave Yingfu a look and went out.

The fact that she didn't beat Lu Nian up was already an act of extra control on her part.

After receiving Shui Zhizi's look, Yingfu immediately asked someone to arrange a place for Lu Nian to live, and then found someone to follow Lu Nian closely.

"Princess, what should we do now?" Yingfu was not sure what Shui Zhizi meant.

She also thought that the princess should be happy when she heard that the emperor would not allow her to marry again and would even take her home, but the princess was very angry now.

"We fully support Xin Zhuyou's ascension to the throne and we must not let Shui Xian'er stay in Laiguo."

"Why? As long as the Fifth Princess stays, you can go back no matter which princess ascends the throne of Lai."

Shui Zhizi turned around and looked at Yingfu, who then discovered that his princess' eyes were red.

"Yingfu, what will happen after you go back? Do you think Shui Xian'er can live well in Lai Country and complete the mission assigned by the emperor?"

"Keep an eye on Lai and prevent it from escaping Dong Meng's control?"

Shui Zhizi nodded.

“If the Fifth Princess remains the same in these four years, it will be difficult for her to complete the mission.

Whether it's the Sixth Prince or King You, she can't control them."

The fifth princess is not a strong-willed person, and she may not even have the courage to live alone outside the royal court.

"If Shui Xian'er fails to complete the mission, and even loses her own life, how do you think the emperor will treat us when we return?"

"What does it have to do with us? It was the Emperor who agreed to our return, and it was also the Emperor's idea to let the Fifth Princess come."

"Didn't you hear it just now? It was Shui Xian'er who agreed to come to Lai Country herself, not anyone else's idea."

Yingfu was still confused.

Shui Zhizi pursed her lips. Yingfu, who didn’t know what happened in her past life, wouldn’t understand.

Shui Hao and Lu Nian really felt guilty at this moment and wanted to take her home.

But if she wants to live a good life after she returns, Shui Xian'er cannot have any problems, and Shui Hao's plan must be implemented smoothly.

If Shui Xian'er fails to complete the task and affects Shui Hao's great cause, Shui Hao will blame all the mistakes on her just like he did in his previous life.

It was because she, the eldest princess, was obviously capable but was unwilling to stay in Lai State and unwilling to take on her responsibilities that everything went wrong.

"Have someone keep an eye on Lü Nian. He cannot leave the palace until he has come to Lai State and ascended the throne."

"I have already explained it clearly to the guards in the mansion." Although Yingfu didn't quite understand, he would always do things according to Shui Zhizi's wishes.
