The quick travel journey of the cold heroine

Chapter 37: The Daughter of a Traitor (37)

Although he would never kill Shui Zhizi, what is the difference between letting Shui Zhizi disappear under an assumed name and killing her? She is so outstanding and can make contributions to the people no matter where she is. Then Shui Zhizi and Zuo Zhanting can be together openly.

This is Si Qingquan. He will never break his promise to Zuo Zhanting. Even if he gets tough, he still has a chance. Of course, the reason why Si Qingquan didn't fight for it is because he knew that Shui Zhizi was more special to Zuo Zhanting.

"Lin Xuan, you'd better be prepared. It's not easy for a woman to be an official. Even if I give you the official position, you will still have to rely on yourself in the end." Shui Zhizi and Lin Xuan both made Si Qingquan realize that some things about David needed to be changed.

Are the courtiers in his court really more suitable to be officials or generals than women like Shui Zhizi and Lin Xuan? Obviously not.

Since you want to be tough, just solve it all at once.

Lin Xuan knelt on the ground with a plop. "Thank you, Your Majesty."

If it was before, Si Qingquan would definitely make a joke, "You haven't even become an official yet and you're already calling yourself that?" But now Si Qingquan is not in the mood. "Get up."

"By the way, there is still a small group of people in the court who think that the child is the Queen's and yours. They think that you deliberately disown your child in order to get rid of Shuifeng Kingdom." Si Qingquan fulfilled Lin Xuan's long-cherished wish, and Lin Xuan spoke to Si Qingquan respectfully.

Si Qingquan's heart began to ache again. Shui Zhizi had already thought of this and found a solution.

"Let them talk. They will stop talking when they have said enough."

Lin Xuan frowned, "Your Majesty, are you in a bad mood?" Something has been wrong since he came in.

"You go back first and let me calm down a little." Si Qingquan didn't answer directly but it was almost the same.

Lin Xuan smacked her lips until Si Qingquan agreed to such a big thing. She should have been tactful and left now, but she kept waiting in Si Qingquan's bedroom because there was something very important.

"Shuifeng State wants to see General Zuo. The ministers couldn't find you two, so they came to me."

Si Qingquan had just sat down feeling weak all over, but his body instantly tensed up when he heard these words.

"Let them tell Shui Fengguo that they will naturally go to see him when the time comes." Shui Fengguo was going to die at the hands of Zhan Ting, so naturally he had to see him.

"The messenger said that Shuifengguo was shouting that he had a huge secret. If General Zuo didn't go, he would regret it for the rest of his life."

Si Qingquan was furious. "He is about to die, but he still won't stop. I will go to see him in person."

"Do you need me to follow you?" Finally getting the opportunity he had always dreamed of, Lin Xuan's attitude towards Si Qingquan could be described as bootlicking.

"No need, go back and pack up. I will explain everything to you in the morning court tomorrow and let you go home. The rest is up to you."

"What if the other two women don't want to go back?" You, of course, also include the two women who entered the palace with Lin Xuan, but Lin Xuan knew that one of them had agreed to enter the palace just for show, but she had other plans in mind. After all, there are many people in this world who want to enter the palace to live a life of luxury and enjoy a high position.

"They are all smart people who know how to choose." They were chosen for help because of their reputation as being difficult to deal with. Their families also knew about it, and their fathers were promoted because of it.

Si Qingquan also promised them that he would tell everyone the truth and give them rewards after the success, and ensure that it would not affect their future marriages. And they only need to stay in the palace for a period of time, which is a very fair deal.

Si Qingquan didn't care what they thought. Not to mention that Si Qingquan didn't have the intention to take a concubine now, even if he did, he wouldn't keep these two people in the palace. The fact that their families and they themselves agreed to this deal was already very telling. Si Qingquan would not let such a utilitarian person enter his harem.

"Why are you here? I want to see Zuo Zhanting." If it weren't for the shackles on his hands and feet, Shui Fengguo's carefree look would make it hard to tell that he was a criminal who was about to die.

But can he really be so relaxed in his heart? Si Qingquan looked at the dark blue in Shui Fengguo's eyes and smiled contemptuously, "The only chance for you to meet Zhan Ting is if you die in Zhan Ting's hands, so Prime Minister, don't be too anxious to meet Zhan Ting."

"Are you sure you don't want to see him?" Shui Fengguo smiled mysteriously.

Si Qingquan said nonchalantly: "Besides using Zhan Ting's family to provoke him, does the Prime Minister have any new tricks?" They have been rivals for so many years. Ever since Si Qingquan knew that Shui Fengguo wanted to meet Zuo Zhan Ting, he already knew what Shui Fengguo was going to do. He just wanted to use the misery of Zuo's family in the past to provoke Zhan Ting.

Shui Fengguo's smile suddenly stopped. "After so many years, Your Majesty still knows me well, but I don't know Your Majesty at all. Your Majesty can even disown his own son. Did you kill the child? Aren't you always the most tolerant and kind? How can you be so cruel to your own child?"

Everyone who knew the child's secret was killed by Shui Fengguo, including Jasmine. Shui Fengguo was sure that as long as he insisted on keeping silent about this matter, it would become a thorn in Si Qingquan's heart forever.

When Si Qingquan said in public that he had mixed up the royal bloodline, Shui Fengguo didn't care. When Si He's men pointed their weapons at him, Shui Fengguo felt that he still had a chance to turn the tables. But when Zuo Zhanting showed up with his men, Shui Fengguo knew that he had already lost.

But what if he lost? He, as a prime minister, had been bullying the emperor Si Qingquan for more than ten years. The child would always be a thorn in Si Qingquan's heart, because it was Si Qingquan's first child. He also had a secret that would make Zuo Zhanting suffer for his whole life. He had done it.

But why did they lose? Why? Shui Fengguo has been thinking about it for the past few days but still can't figure it out.

Disgust flashed in Si Qingquan's eyes. It was disgusting that he was about to die.

"The Prime Minister knows exactly who the poor boy belongs to. There is no need to pretend in front of me. If nothing else, just take a good rest and cherish these last moments." Since it has been confirmed that Shui Fengguo wants to use Zuo Zhanting's family to provoke him, there is nothing more to say. Si Qingquan turned around and left.

"Your Majesty is really stubborn. You gave up your first child just to win me. Don't you feel guilty when you hear the crying of that child in your dreams at midnight?"

"What about the Prime Minister? The Prime Minister killed the child's parents. Can you sleep peacefully in the middle of the night?" Si Qingquan turned his head and looked at Shui Fengguo with sharp eyes. When Lin Xuan said that he couldn't find the child's parents, Si Qingquan guessed that Shui Fengguo didn't even let his own daughter go in order to keep the secret, so how could he let go of the child's parents.

"Yes, the Prime Minister doesn't care. If the Prime Minister really cared, then the souls of those who were killed by you would have been tormented and unable to sleep all these years. If you cared, you would not have harmed the people for your own selfish desires or even colluded with the Kingdom of Jin."
