The quick travel journey of the cold heroine
Chapter 4: The Daughter of a Traitor (4)
Jasmine has only had one master from the beginning to the end, and that is the Water Sealed Kingdom. In Jasmine's eyes, her master, the Water Sealed Kingdom, is above all else, so she never hesitates to speak.
"Yes, as long as I ask, the emperor will have to come, but what will he think? In this case, even if I get pregnant as I wish, do you think the emperor will let the child be born alive?"
Shui Zhizi smiled and said, "Moli, you need to use your brain when doing things. My father asked me to enter the palace just to make things legitimate. If I enter the palace but still have a falling out with the emperor, then what's the point of all our efforts?"
"I understand." Jasmine seemed to agree with Shui Zhizi's approach.
"Besides, it's just a celebration banquet. If it's not well organized, how can it contribute to father's cause?"
Jasmine thought for a long time before shaking her head.
"But if we do it well, it will make the emperor let down his guard and even make him like us. Then you and I can complete our mission in this palace faster."
"I will keep an eye on it and will not let any mistakes happen during the celebration banquet."
Shui Zhizi finally relaxed her hand that had been tightly holding the book. Jasmine must be dealt with as soon as possible. It is really too troublesome to deal with her every day.
She had to reach a tacit understanding with Si Qingquan as soon as possible and let Si Qingquan know that she was on his side.
But now she is the daughter of Shuifeng Kingdom and has done so many things for Shuifeng Kingdom. How could Si Qingquan trust her?
Although many problems could be solved as long as Si Qingquan and Zuo Zhanting knew that her true identity was Zuo Zhanting's biological sister, the client had previously instructed that if possible, Zuo Zhanting should not be informed of her true identity.
The client felt that she was not worthy of being Zuo Zhanting's sister as she had done many wrong things, and she also did not want Zuo Zhanting to feel guilty after knowing what she had experienced over the years.
After all, in his previous life, when Zuo Zhanting knew the identity of the client, his guilt affected his judgment and choices, which led to their eventual loss to the Shuifeng Kingdom.
Therefore, the client's wish was only to protect Zuo Zhanting and help Zuo Zhanting accomplish everything he wanted to accomplish, but he never mentioned recognition of his relatives.
This will inevitably add difficulty to Shui Zhizi's task, but a qualified vow fulfiller will certainly respect the wishes of the client.
So no matter how anxious Shui Zhizi was, she could only wait for the opportunity.
Shui Zhizi thought that with her arrangement, this celebration banquet would be absolutely foolproof. But she forgot how Shui Fengguo could possibly let Si Qingquan get what he wanted.
Si Qingquan also thought that since he had married Shui Zhizi as his queen, even if Shui Fengguo was still not satisfied, he should restrain himself for the time being. However, he did not expect that Shui Fengguo would want to interfere in Zuo Zhanting's marriage so soon.
Si Qingquan almost couldn't control himself and turned against Shui Fengguo on the spot.
Others may not know, but Si Qingquan knows that Shui Fengguo is the murderer who killed all of Zuo Zhanting's family. If Shui Fengguo really interferes in Zuo Zhanting's marriage, how can Si Qingquan be worthy of the Zuo family and Zuo Zhanting's loyalty and dedication to him over the years.
But looking at Shui Fengguo standing in the crowd, determined to win, Si Qingquan knew very well that he had no ability to refuse. Even if he broke off relations with Shui Fengguo regardless of everything, he could not fight against Shui Fengguo now.
Shui Zhizi, who was sitting next to Si Qingquan, naturally felt Si Qingquan's powerlessness and anger, but Shui Zhizi herself was no less angry than Si Qingquan.
Looking at the people with different expressions at the banquet, Shui Zhizi could no longer maintain the smile on her face. This was the first thing she did for her brother Zuo Zhanting, but Shui Fengguo almost ruined the banquet.
Everyone knew that Shui Fengguo had bad intentions, but when Shui Fengguo proposed that Zuo Zhanting choose a woman to marry, no one stood up to say a word for Zuo Zhanting.
Shui Zhizi no longer cared whether she would anger Shui Fengguo today. She couldn't just watch Zuo Zhanting being forced and do nothing.
"Father, you don't know that General Zuo once said in front of everyone that he would never consider his own personal affairs until the war between David and Jin Kingdom was completely resolved. Now General Zuo is a role model for many of David's generals. If General Zuo gets married at this time, it may affect the morale of the army."
While Shui Zhizi was speaking, she quickly grabbed the wine glass that Si Qingquan was about to throw away.
Under everyone's shocked gaze, Shui Zhizi continued, "General Zuo has only temporarily repelled the Jin Kingdom this time. The Jin Kingdom has evil ambitions, and who knows when it will make a comeback. General Zuo may not be able to consider his own affairs at this time."
"The Queen is right. General Zuo has a heavy responsibility and should not consider personal feelings at this time." As soon as Shui Zhizi finished speaking, Si Qingquan took over.
"I will live up to the emperor's trust and will not get married until the Jin Kingdom is completely driven back to their own place." Zuo Zhanting was also very tactful and immediately knelt down to show his determination.
At this time, several ministers who had always supported Si Qingquan finally found an opportunity to speak. "General Zuo is righteous, and we admire him. We are willing to learn from him."
Shui Fengguo's face instantly turned dark blue when he saw this scene. He did not cover his face at all and just stared at Shui Zhizi.
If Shui Zhizi hadn't suddenly intervened, Zuo Zhanting's marriage would have been settled today. In this way, Si Qingquan and Zuo Zhanting would be firmly in his hands.
Both of their wives belong to him, and he will know everything they do in the future.
But now that these people are singing the same tune, it would be inappropriate for him to say anything more. What is Shui Zhizi up to? Or has she already known something and is going to betray him? In that case, there is no need to keep Shui Zhizi.
What a pity. He originally wanted to wait until Shui Zhizi killed Si Qingquan and Zuo Zhanting with her own hands before telling the three of them Shui Zhizi's true identity. He wanted them to die with regrets.
Shui Zhizi still maintained her smile despite Shui Fengguo's murderous gaze. Zuo Zhanting's matter was her bottom line. If the only way to protect Zuo Zhanting was to break off relations with Shui Fengguo, then she had no choice but to break off relations with Shui Fengguo.
Although doing so would make the road ahead more difficult, she had no choice.
On the contrary, Si Qingquan, who was sitting next to Shui Zhizi, and Zuo Zhanting, who was surrounded by people, could not calm down for a long time.
Si Qingquan looked at the person beside him who had been smiling as if nothing had happened, and for the first time he showed any emotion other than disgust towards Shui Zhizi.
Amid the noisy banquet, Si Qingquan looked at Shui Zhizi seriously for the first time.
Before meeting Shui Zhizi, Si Qingquan had heard many rumors about Shui Zhizi. Some said that she was as vicious and treacherous as her father, some said that she killed people without blinking an eye, and some said that she was more fearless than men on the battlefield, but no one had ever said in front of him that Shui Zhizi was excellent.
The identity of the daughter of Shuifeng Kingdom would never be well regarded by those who followed him as the emperor.
