The quick travel journey of the cold heroine
Chapter 20: The Daughter of a Traitor (2)
But it cannot be said that Doctor Li is simple-minded to think so. On the contrary, as a person who has been through it, Doctor Li sees it very clearly. When Shui Zhizi looks at Zuo Zhanting's eyes, there is nothing but worry, so he thinks so.
"Why is Madam here? Where is the young master?"
"He was worried about letting others look for you, so I came here. From his perspective, everything is under control now, but it may not be the case over time. No one except him knows I'm here, so you have to get well quickly so that I can go back as soon as possible."
Shui Zhizi had wiped away her tears and regained her composure. She even spoke to Zuo Zhanting in a colder tone.
Because Shui Zhizi thought of Si Qingquan's outrageous question, she was afraid that Zuo Zhanting would misunderstand. Of course, the most important thing was that since they were not prepared to recognize each other, they should not let Zuo Zhanting have any doubts.
Shui Zhizi had only thought that he was her brother. She came to this world for him, so she naturally cared about him, but she forgot that the client did not say that he wanted to recognize her brother. She always thought that her current identity would bring shame to the Zuo family.
Zuo Zhanting naturally noticed the change in Shui Zhizi's attitude. He thought that Shui Zhizi had misunderstood his previous question.
"I'm not questioning you, I'm just a little worried." Zuo Zhanting explained in a serious tone.
"I know. Let Doctor Li treat your injury quickly. I'll wait for you outside." Doctor Li had already started preparing, and Shui Zhizi ended the topic with a look.
After a while, hearing the muffled groan coming from inside, Shui Zhizi clenched her teeth, feeling worried and thankful at the same time. No matter how difficult the journey was, she and Doctor Li did not throw away the various medicines they carried with them, so that they could treat Zuo Zhanting now.
About half an hour later, the door of the house was opened. During this time, Shui Zhizi did not wait all the time. She asked the people in the family to help buy some meat and vegetables. Both Zuo Zhanting, she and Doctor Li needed nourishment.
Zuo Zhanting was clearly eating with his uninjured hand, but his hand was shaking slightly.
Looking closely, you can see that Doctor Li's hands are shaking even more violently. How could he not? The meal he was eating was made by the Queen herself. The first hot meal he had on this trip was actually made by the Queen. Doctor Li was nervous and excited.
If Doctor Li knew that Emperor Si Qingquan had never eaten food cooked by Shui Zhizi, he would probably be even more excited.
In the palace, although Shui Zhizi would eat with Si Qingquan and arrange for people in the palace to cook Si Qingquan's favorite dishes, she would never cook herself, and would never appear in the kitchen when others were cooking.
Because Shui Zhizi wanted Si Qingquan to eat with peace of mind. As the daughter of Shuifeng Kingdom, Shui Zhizi was afraid that Si Qingquan would not be able to eat.
Even though Si Qingquan later said that he would trust Shui Zhizi, Shui Zhizi always abided by her own rules.
However, Zuo Zhanting's trembling was not due to nervousness. Just now, Doctor Li had been talking to Zuo Zhanting in order to help him relieve the pain.
At this time, all Doctor Li and Zuo Zhanting could talk about was his and the Queen's experiences along the way.
I heard Doctor Li talk about how urgent and nervous they were on the journey, how capable Shui Zhizi was and how she was not afraid of hardship. He also talked about how many injuries Shui Zhizi had suffered, and even now he didn't know if she had applied medicine to the wounds on her legs caused by riding for a long time.
Doctor Li said that originally they were just scratches on their legs, but in order to find him over the past few days, they had walked along many mountain paths along the cliff, and accidentally got their clothes, hands, and face scratched.
"Mr. Zuo, if you have any questions, feel free to ask. There's no need to worry about anything." There was something wrong with the way Zuo Zhanting looked at Shui Zhizi since they started eating. It seemed like he had a lot of questions to ask.
Originally, Shui Zhizi wanted to ignore it, and would speak up if Zuo Zhanting really wanted to ask, but the meal was already finished and Zuo Zhanting didn't say anything, but his expression showed that he wanted to say something, so Shui Zhizi could only speak up with understanding.
As a result, when Shui Zhizi spoke, Zuo Zhanting dropped the chopsticks he was about to put down to the ground. "No, it's okay, I'm fine."
Zuo Zhanting seemed very nervous. Shui Zhizi frowned slightly. There must be something wrong, but Zuo Zhanting was unwilling to say it, so Shui Zhizi stopped asking. Maybe it was something she shouldn't know because of her identity. Shui Zhizi always knew her limits.
"Leave the dishes and I'll clean them up. Mr. Zuo, please write a letter to him and ask about the current situation over there. I'll ask someone to deliver it later."
"You. You should take a rest first. I heard from Doctor Li that you didn't get much rest along the way. There is an empty house here. You can go and rest first." Zuo Zhanting's voice was shaking.
Shui Zhizi suddenly understood, so Zuo Zhanting behaved strangely because he felt guilty for causing her to suffer.
"Okay, I'll rest after I deliver the letter." Shui Zhizi knew very well that if she refused others in this situation, she would only feel more guilty.
"You go and have a rest first. Wait for us to get back with the letter in two days and deliver it back to the military camp. The people there are reliable. It's risky to just find someone now." When talking about the military camp, Zuo Zhanting deliberately lowered his voice.
Shui Zhizi spoke very vaguely when mentioning the capital and the emperor, which made Zuo Zhanting subconsciously cautious, although he felt that the family who saved him were very reliable.
Shui Zhizi thought for a moment and realized that judging from Zuo Zhanting's anxious look, he would have to return to the barracks in a few days. It would be more reliable for soldiers to deliver letters. As for the time, letters from the army would definitely be delivered faster than those from ordinary people.
"Okay, I'll rest after I wash the dishes." She really needed a good rest.
"Let Doctor Li go, and you go and rest."
Doctor Li, who was suddenly called, immediately picked up the dishes and went out. That was the Queen, and even if General Zuo didn't say anything, he would have to wash the dishes. It was just that the Queen asked him to help General Zuo write a letter, so he didn't say anything.
"You should also have a good rest. If you need anything, just call for help." After saying that, Shui Zhizi followed him out.
If Shui Zhizi hadn't closed the door, she would have noticed Zuo Zhanting's eyes following her back.
"Madam is indeed a military commander, she is experienced and can walk on the mountain road as if it were flat ground. However, the sleeve of her clothes was also scratched, and a red mark was exposed. I thought Madam was injured and wanted to apply medicine to her, but she said it was a birthmark."
"I thought she was in a hurry to get on the road and didn't want to apply medicine. I was so anxious that I almost got into a fight with her, but I didn't expect it was just a birthmark."
Doctor Li described the incident in such detail because he wanted to let Zuo Zhanting know that although he did not put much effort into finding the person, he was still wholeheartedly protecting his master.
As a result, Zuo Zhanting only heard that Shui Zhizi had a birthmark on her arm, a red mark. Zuo Zhanting asked if the red mark was on her right arm.
Suddenly Zuo Zhanting understood everything.
