The quick travel journey of the cold heroine

Chapter 2: The Daughter of a Traitor (2)

Faced with this slap, Shui Zhizi could only endure it silently. Now she did not have the capital to compete with Shui Fengguo.

"My daughter thinks I should marry Si Qingquan." Shui Zhizi said calmly.

"Father, instead of looking for an ally who is not sure whether he is reliable, it is better to rely on ourselves. As long as my daughter marries into the palace and gives birth to a prince, your great cause will be just around the corner." Shui Zhizi finished her words without changing her expression under Shui Fengguo's surprised gaze.

How to prove that Shuifengguo is a treacherous minister?

There was a saying in the court: The people of David only know that the prime minister is in charge of the country's water, but they don't know that the emperor is in charge of the clear springs.

Of course, the best proof now is that less than three days after Shui Zhizi said these words, she received the imperial edict to appoint her as queen.

How could Si Qingquan be willing to let Shui Zhizi, the daughter of a treacherous minister, become the queen? Besides, it was well known that Shui Zhizi herself was no ordinary person.

But now Si Qingquan does not have the ability to refuse Shuifeng Kingdom.

Shui Zhizi didn't expect that she could come to Si Qingquan so quickly. Shui Zhizi was very happy to start the mission as soon as possible, but this also proved that the strength of Shuifeng Kingdom was far stronger than she imagined. Zuo Zhanting and Si Qingquan might be in a more difficult situation. And her mission was not so easy to complete.

Shui Zhizi sighed secretly. The people outside had been hesitating for a long time.

Today is the day she and Si Qingquan are getting married. She can understand Si Qingquan's resistance to this marriage, and she can also understand Si Qingquan's vigilance against herself, after all, she is now the famous daughter of the Shuifeng Kingdom.

But since Si Qingquan couldn't resist the Shuifeng Kingdom and had already agreed to marry her, he shouldn't hesitate outside the door at this time.

Not entering the house on the wedding night would be of no use except to make things difficult for him in the court after Shui Fengguo found out.

"Miss, I will let the emperor in."

Hearing the voice of her personal maid Jasmine, Shui Zhizi felt even more depressed. This person was from Shuifeng Kingdom. How could she make Si Qingquan trust her under such surveillance?

"No need. Don't act on your own in the palace." Shui Zhizi gave the order while thinking about how to get Jasmine away from her.

Because of the veil, Shui Zhizi naturally did not see the anxiety on Jasmine's face when she heard her order.

Finally Si Qingquan came in.

The veil was removed, and Shui Zhizi finally saw what the person her brother had been following all his life looked like.

He is still too young. Seeing the disgust that could not be hidden in Si Qingquan's eyes, Shui Zhizi secretly commented in her heart.

"Jasmine, go out." If Jasmine stayed here any longer, she would notice the disgust in Si Qingquan's eyes.

"The Queen is indeed worthy of her reputation." Si Qingquan finally spoke when they were the only two left in the room.

Shui Zhizi bowed respectfully before answering, "I don't know what rumors Your Majesty has heard about me, but I still want to say that hearing is not as good as seeing."

"Oh, then I'll wait and see." Si Qingquan's words were full of sarcasm, but he still handed Shui Zhizi the wedding wine. The moment Shui Zhizi took the wedding wine, he turned around and drank his own cup.

At this moment, Si Qingquan drank the wedding wine only because he had no choice, but later on, Si Qingquan was glad for his choice countless times.

When Shui Zhizi was held in Si Qingquan's arms, she had only one thought in her mind: "Although he is a little young, he still has some abilities." Then she fell asleep in Si Qingquan's arms.

Early in the morning, Shui Zhizi stood in front of the mirror and looked at the purple hand marks on her neck, and once again marveled at Si Qingquan's ability.

He was able to drug himself under the surveillance of Shuifeng State, and even almost kill himself, but he could make himself speechless. After all, it was normal for the bride to have some marks on her body on the wedding night. Who would have thought that Si Qingquan really wanted to kill?

However, the medicine Si Qingquan found was quite magical. It was colorless and tasteless, and it could also give him some strange memories. If it weren't for the fact that he had done so many tasks, he would have been fooled.

"Queen, it's time to act. The Prime Minister wants you to take control of the harem within a month." Jasmine's voice woke up Shui Gardenia who was immersed in her own world.

Looking at Jasmine who was giving her orders as usual, Shui Zhizi said calmly, "In the mansion, I don't mind your attitude when talking to me, but Jasmine, we are in the palace now, go out and kneel for an hour as punishment."

"Get out!" Under Jasmine's surprised eyes, Shui Zhizi just repeated her order.

Shui Zhizi knew that her actions would reach the ears of Shuifeng Kingdom, and she also knew that doing so would arouse Shuifeng Kingdom's suspicion.

However, compared to the harm brought by Shui Fengguo's suspicion, what Shui Zhizi urgently needs is Si Qingquan's trust.

Only if Si Qingquan trusts her as soon as possible can she help Si Qingquan better.

So Shui Zhizi needed to let Si Qingquan see her attitude, and Jasmine was her first token of allegiance to Si Qingquan.

"Queen, I..." Even though Shui Zhizi repeated her order again, Jasmine still tried to struggle.

"Jasmine, the palace rules are strict. You should call yourself a slave. If you talk too much, I will add another hour!" Shui Gardenia stared at Jasmine's eyes as she said this.

Although Shui Zhizi's tone was still flat, Jasmine shuddered. "So this is what it feels like to have been on the battlefield and killed people? Just a glance from him scared her." Jasmine couldn't help but think to herself.

After sending Jasmine Water and Gardenia away, she continued to sit in front of the mirror and look at the almost black and blue marks on her neck, feeling a sense of relief.

"Fortunately, Si Qingquan was still wary of the Shuifeng Kingdom, otherwise she would have been strangled to death on her wedding night before her mission even began."

However, it was really painful, as if her throat was about to break, and the key point was that she couldn't show any abnormality in front of others.

"Thank you for your hard work, Queen. I lost my composure last night."

"It seems that Si Qingquan has finally felt better after almost strangling her to death last night. His acting today is much better than yesterday. His little face is blushing, as if he really did something to her, and the disgust in his eyes is gone." Shui Gardenia thought as she looked at Si Qingquan who suddenly appeared.

Shui Zhizi's acting skills are naturally no worse than Si Qingquan's. "It's my poor health that ruined the emperor's mood."

Si Qingquan looked at Shui Zhizi with complicated eyes, "I heard before that the queen is as brave as any man, but now it seems that the rumors can't be trusted." At least in his imagination, Shui Zhizi would never show such a shy expression.

"On the battlefield, I have to be stronger than men to win the support of the people. Now that I am the emperor's wife, it is naturally different from the rumors."

"She is indeed the good daughter of the Prime Minister. She is as versatile as the Prime Minister."
