The quick travel journey of the cold heroine

Chapter 32: The Daughter of a Traitor (32)

But the emperor is the emperor after all. As long as he weighs the pros and cons, feelings will be the first thing he gives up.

Zuo Zhanting himself is also such a person, but this is his biological sister whom he owes his whole life, and Zuo Zhanting does not want Shui Zhizi to stay in the palace in the end. The emperor said that he would let Shui Zhizi leave the capital after the matter is accomplished.

But since Shui Zhizi likes the emperor, Zuo Zhanting gritted his teeth and said, "Then I will tell the emperor your true identity when I go back." Only in this way can Shui Zhizi continue to stay in the palace.

"No!" Shui Zhizi stopped him immediately. "I don't plan to stay in the palace."

"But you don't like..."

"Yes, I like the emperor, but just like the emperor does to me, we both have other things that we care about more. Brother, I only want to see you safe and happy in this life. The emperor said that he would let me leave the palace when the time comes, and that is the best choice for me."

"That's because the emperor doesn't know your identity."

"What can we do if we know? Even if all the court officials know, what can we do? Who would trust a daughter of the Zuo family who was raised by the Shuifeng Kingdom since she was a child?"

Zuo Zhanting was about to answer but Shui Zhizi interrupted him, "Yes, you believe it, the emperor believes it, but how many people will you fight against? How confident are you that you can fight against the court officials besides Shui Fengguo?"

Shui Zhizi's mission is to make Zuo Zhanting's life easier instead of letting him get into new troubles after he finally escapes from the Shuifeng Kingdom.

Shui Zhizi told Zuo Zhanting that she had feelings for Si Qingquan and she did not want Zuo Zhanting to feel guilty, not because she wanted to stay in the palace. She had already decided where to go.

If she can't survive, then forget it. But if she can survive and wants to leave the capital, Shui Zhizi will try her best to live in order not to make Zuo Zhanting feel guilty, so her identity must not be known to Si Qingquan.

"Besides, brother, I don't want to be in this kind of struggle every day. I'm really tired after these years. When you completely solve the problem of Shuifeng Kingdom, I will leave the capital and find a place I like to live an ordinary life. This is what I want."

Zuo Zhanting's heart ached again. Yes, he was already so tired being protected by the emperor, let alone Shui Zhizi who was all alone.

"Then never tell the emperor your identity, otherwise, the emperor will not let you go in his current state." Zuo Zhanting can be said to be the person who knows Si Qingquan best. If she lost her identity as the daughter of Shuifeng Kingdom, the emperor would definitely keep Shui Zhizi in his grasp.

"I know." When Si Qingquan couldn't even slap her, Shui Zhizi knew that Si Qingquan's feelings for her were much deeper than she thought. But she would never become a new burden to Zuo Zhanting and Si Qingquan.

"Brother, please go quickly. I will try my best to take good care of myself. You should also take good care of yourself. We will see each other then."

Zuo Zhanting and Shui Zhizi stared at each other for a long time, and finally gave up the idea of ​​taking force and left. This later became the thing Zuo Zhanting regretted most in his life.

After finally seeing Zuo Zhanting off, Shui Zhizi's cold sweat dried, but she had no way to clean up now, so she could only sit and wait quietly. There was no noise until almost dawn, and Shui Zhizi finally fell asleep peacefully.

It seemed that her brother had successfully taken the imperial concubine away. All she had to do next was wait. Wait for Shuifengguo to bring back a baby boy, and wait for everything to be over.

No one told Shui Zhizi about Lin Xuan's rescue, and Shui Fengguo did not come to Shui Zhizi for this matter. Shui Zhizi finally put down her worries, and their plans went smoothly.

Because Shui Fengguo was completely unaware that Shui Zhizi had betrayed him, he didn't think Shui Zhizi would know anything about Lin Xuan's affairs.

And the final value of Shui Zhizi is just to wait for time, to wait for the birth of the child. Shui Fengguo, a person with only final value, naturally would not come to Shui Zhizi for other things.

Just like after being beaten last time, the Shuifeng Kingdom never set foot here again.

Shui Feng Kingdom did not disappoint Shui Zhizi. Two days after Zuo Zhanting rescued Lin Xuan, Shui Feng Kingdom took action.

It was very simple and brutal. He stabbed Shui Zhizi while she was still sleeping. The knife pierced Shui Zhizi's stomach mercilessly. Shui Zhizi was caught off guard and screamed.

After Shui Zhizi opened her eyes, Shui Fengguo remained expressionless. He even pulled out the knife without hesitation and stabbed her a second time. Shui Zhizi cried out in pain again, and then Shui Zhizi, who was about to faint from the pain, heard a baby crying.

Shui Zhizi really wanted to say to Shui Fengguo, "Father, what a good trick." He acted quickly and without saying a word.

But Shui Zhizi fainted very tactfully, and as expected, Shui Fengguo was unwilling to waste any time on the unconscious Shui Zhizi as usual.

Shui Fengguo knew very well that if no one cared for such an injury, Shui Zhizi would bleed to death within half an hour. In the following time, Shui Fengguo would take away all the people here. In Shui Fengguo's eyes, Shui Zhizi was already a dead person, so there was no need for him to waste any more time.

"The queen was frightened and gave birth prematurely. After trying her best to give birth to the child, she died of dystocia. Someone, go back to the palace to report the death." Shui Fengguo shouted as he turned and left without ever looking at Shui Zhizi again.

Shui Zhizi opened her eyes not long after hearing the door open. She wanted to wait until Shui Fengguo was gone before opening her eyes, but she knew that if she waited any longer, she would die from excessive blood loss. She said that she would try her best to live.

Fortunately, except for the new wound on her stomach, all other parts of Shui Zhizi's body were healed. Shui Zhizi covered the wound, struggled to roll off the bed, took out the medicine box hidden under the bed, and skillfully stopped the bleeding and bandaged herself.

If anyone saw this, they would be amazed at Shui Zhizi's calmness, and would feel sorry for her suffering. Shui Zhizi's face was covered in cold sweat, and blood stained the clothes on her belly and her own hands. The scene was as miserable and tragic as it could be.

Even though she knew that Shui Fengguo had not gone far, Shui Zhizi could still hear the well-trained footsteps coming from outside, and could tell that there were many people.

But Shui Zhizi still couldn't control her cries of pain, nor her tears. She was in so much pain. Shui Zhizi had never done such a miserable job in a mission before. She had to stay alive and watch Zuo Zhanting kill Shui Fengguo with his sword.

However, people outside would not pay attention to the movements of a dead person, so Shui Zhizi was not discovered.

By the time Shui Zhizi finished bandaging herself, she could no longer hear any sound from outside. She knew that Shui Fengguo was gone.

Shui Zhizi tried to get up, but she fell back several times. She couldn't walk without pulling her stomach, but the pain was unbearable. Shui Zhizi was frustrated and irritated. How could she testify to Si Qingquan and Zuo Zhanting?
