The quick travel journey of the cold heroine

Chapter 30: The Daughter of a Traitor (3)

But Zuo Zhanting knew very well that Shui Zhizi was not that kind. When he was young, he knew that Shui Fengguo had harmed his family but he could do nothing. Now, was he going to personally send his sister to Shui Fengguo to be humiliated? Zuo Zhanting couldn't do it.

When Si Qingquan saw Zuo Zhanting's red eyes, his heart skipped a beat. Except for the time when the Zuo family was wiped out, he had never seen Zuo Zhanting like this.

When did Shui Zhizi have such a big influence on Zuo Zhanting? Did something happen when Shui Zhizi went to rescue people this time that he didn't know about? What is Zhanting's attitude towards the queen now, or what is his emotion?

Si Qingquan never thought that Zuo Zhanting would be special to Shui Zhizi. He felt worried, guilty, conflicted, bitter, and even jealous. For a moment, Si Qingquan couldn't figure out his own feelings.

"Zhan Ting, you know I won't stop you from doing what you are going to do." Si Qingquan stared at Zuo Zhan Ting without blinking. He needed to know if Zuo Zhan Ting was more irrational than him.

Zuo Zhanting's eyes lit up, but his face was full of guilt. "Your Majesty, I will bring back the Queen and the Imperial Concubine safely."

Si Qingquan's heart sank. This was the first time Zuo Zhanting had lost his mind like this. What was even more terrifying was that after hearing such an answer, he actually began to look forward to it.

Si Qingquan could no longer tell who was more irrational between him and Zuo Zhanting.

"Bring more people with you, and be careful." Since we are going to do this, we must be absolutely sure. We can't fail to rescue the people and alert the enemy.

"Yes. I will go right away."

"Zhan Ting!" Si Qingquan subconsciously called out to Zuo Zhan Ting who was about to rush out. After calling out, he faced Zuo Zhan Ting's puzzled eyes for a long time and didn't know what to say.

"Your Majesty?" Although Zuo Zhanting knew that the emperor would not go back on his promise, he still became nervous.

"Zhan Ting, neither you nor I have a future with the daughter of Shuifeng Kingdom." Si Qingquan said word by word.

Si Qingquan was not a person who only cared about love, but facing the special feelings of Shui Zhizi and Zuo Zhanting for each other, he always thought in this direction.

Because this is the result he fears the most, the more he fears it, the more he falls into this speculation.

Zuo Zhanting's shocked expression was exactly the same as Shui Zhizi's expression when she heard Si Qingquan say that.

Zuo Zhanting subconsciously wanted to explain, but after thinking about something, he finally just said, "I understand."

If Shui Zhizi had married into the palace just to help the emperor and his brother, then he shouldn't have revealed Shui Zhizi's true identity.

Otherwise, with the emperor's current attitude towards Shui Zhizi, he would definitely keep Shui Zhizi in the palace. But this may not be what Shui Zhizi wants. Besides, the emperor has too many responsibilities and has no other choice, and Shui Zhizi will be tired in the palace.

So Zuo Zhanting decided to keep this secret and wait until he met Shui Zhizi. Zuo Zhanting could devote his life to Si Qingquan, but his sister's life should be decided by herself.

From the moment he knew Shui Zhizi's true identity, Zuo Zhanting's life goal, in addition to being loyal to the emperor, was to protect his sister.

Zuo Zhanting's acquiescence made Si Qingquan's face pale instantly. He and Zuo Zhanting actually fell in love with the same woman.

Si Qingquan didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He and his good brother fell in love with the same girl, but fortunately, they didn't need to fight because there was no point.

There was a knock on the door, and Shui Zhizi hurriedly hid the map she had drawn in the past two days under the quilt. This was the map Shui Zhizi used to analyze where Lin Xuan was imprisoned. She didn't have enough strength to search one place at a time, so she could only draw a map based on her memory and analyze it before taking action.

However, in her yard these days, no one except Jasmine and the doctor dared to come in. Jasmine would definitely not come at this time, and she would not knock on the door, so who could it be? Shui Zhizi couldn't think of it.

"Come in." No matter who it is, Shui Zhizi now has no ability to refuse.

"Are you injured?" A strong smell of medicine was smelled as soon as I entered the door.

"General Zuo? You're back? Why are you here? And you're knocking on the door? Aren't you afraid of being discovered by your father's people? Do you want to live?" When Shui Zhizi found out that the person who came was Zuo Zhanting, she asked questions one after another, not giving Zuo Zhanting any chance to interrupt.

Shui Zhizi leaned against the head of the bed, the dim candlelight reflected on her face, so that Zuo Zhanting could not see Shui Zhizi's expression at all. He could only see that there were no scars on Shui Zhizi's face.

"The Water Seal Nation didn't do anything to you, did it?"

Shui Zhizi's expression was very natural, without any trace of lying. "No, I'm still pregnant anyway, and my father didn't touch me."

The fact is that Shui Zhizi can't get out of bed now, otherwise Shui Zhizi would definitely get out of bed and let Zuo Zhanting take a look in order to make Zuo Zhanting feel more at ease.

"General Zuo, how are you? Is your arm okay? Did you have a smooth journey? Will your father's men discover you here?" Through his clothes, Shui Zhizi could only see that Zuo Zhanting's arm was hanging down normally, but she didn't know whether he had recovered or not.

Zuo Zhanting's eyes turned red again. Such obvious concern, such obvious difference, why didn't he notice it earlier.

Zuo Zhanting took a few steps forward. "Are you still going to call me General Zuo? Are you still going to call our enemy father?"

Shui Zhizi felt a lump in her throat and almost burst into tears.

Shui Zhizi, you can't cry, you can't recognize your relatives yet. You still bear the stigma of being the daughter of a traitor. Si Qingquan and the others haven't won yet, and everything is not over yet. You can't be weak at this time, and you can't affect Zuo Zhanting. Shui Zhizi told herself this.

"I don't understand what General Zuo is saying."

"I'm sorry. It's my fault that I'm incompetent. It's my fault that I didn't protect you. It's my fault that I didn't recognize you. It's my fault that I made you suffer. I'm sorry, I'm sorry."

Zuo Zhanting almost knelt down in front of Shui Zhizi's bed and cried. Shui Zhizi hurriedly tried to pull him up, but ended up pulling her stomach and almost cried out in pain. Shui Zhizi clenched her teeth to avoid exposing herself.

"General Zuo, you really recognized the wrong person." Shui Zhizi's voice was gradually losing confidence, because she remembered the conversation she had with Zuo Zhanting before sending him back to the barracks at the border. At that time, they had already reached a tacit understanding. It seemed useless to deny it now, which would only make Zuo Zhanting feel that she was blaming him and that was why he didn't want to recognize her.

However, before they recognized each other, Zuo Zhanting had already lost control of his emotions on the territory of Shuifeng Kingdom. If they had recognized each other, Zuo Zhanting might not have done something impulsive.

"There is a red birthmark on your arm, Shui Zhizi, you already knew it, otherwise you wouldn't help the emperor for no reason."

Shui Zhizi pounded the bed weakly. She finally knew what was wrong. The scene of Doctor Li pestering her to apply medicine was still vivid in Shui Zhizi's mind.
