The quick travel journey of the cold heroine

Chapter 6: The Daughter of a Traitor (6)

Who else can I listen to besides Jasmine? Fortunately, Shui Zhizi was prepared for this problem. "This marriage was forced by us. The emperor certainly doesn't want to come here more often, so I drank the fertility medicine on the wedding night, thinking that it would be successful at once, so I didn't take the initiative to find the emperor."

Shui Fengguo looked at Shui Zhizi's calm face when she talked about this matter, and his doubts began to dissipate. It would be best if Shui Zhizi remained obedient as always. If she had any other feelings for Si Qingquan, then things would be troublesome.

"Remember your mission. I don't have that much patience." The reason he agreed to let Shui Zhizi enter the palace was because he could go faster by following Shui Zhizi's method. If Shui Zhizi was unable to get pregnant quickly, he wouldn't mind having someone else complete the task.

"Don't worry, father. After what happened at the banquet just now, the emperor will definitely come to my place today."

Mentioning what happened at the banquet just now, Shui Fengguo wanted to slap Shui Zhizi a few times again. It had been a long time since he had been humiliated in public like this.

"Why did you mobilize the palace maids? Are you afraid that the emperor won't become suspicious by making such a big move right after entering the palace?" Si Qingquan has been wary and suspicious of him for a long time. Of course, this is not what Shui Fengguo really cares about.

However, Shui Fengguo had never told Shui Zhizi about his staffing arrangements in the palace, so he couldn't directly tell Shui Zhizi that she had mobilized the palace staff and interrupted his arrangements.

Shui Zhizi, who had studied the palace maids and eunuchs carefully, naturally knew what Shui Fengguo really cared about, but she did not show it at all and explained with an attitude of only thinking about the future.

"Father, before the emperor had no concubines in the palace, everyone kept a balance and didn't mention this matter. But now that I'm in the palace, how could your political enemies not take action? I must arrange everything before other women enter the palace. No one can get pregnant with a prince before me."

Shui Fengguo attended court every day, so he naturally knew that since Shui Zhizi entered the palace, other ministers had been ready to make a move. He could stop them temporarily, but not forever. Shui Zhizi's approach was undoubtedly correct.

But Shui Fengguo felt a sense of crisis in his heart. Shui Zhizi was too smart, and almost every step she took was impeccable. It would be fine if she remained so loyal, but if she knew something, it would be the biggest threat to him.

In the end, Shui Fengguo just snorted coldly and turned away.

Shui Zhizi watched Shui Fengguo's back for a long time before she looked down at her own miserable appearance. She had remained in the posture as if she had been kicked down and did not dare to move. Water had already come out of her clenched hands.

She was actually extremely nervous. If she said one wrong word or made one expression that made Shui Fengguo suspicious, all her previous work would be in vain. Fortunately, everything went smoothly.

"Huh...!" Shui Zhizi was about to take a deep breath to relax when she was startled by a hand that suddenly appeared on her hand.

“Empress, I will apply medicine for you.” Jasmine’s tone was calm, as if the one who was injured was not the master she had followed for more than ten years.

Shui Zhizi hid the sneer in her eyes and said, "No need, I will do it myself. You go out and keep an eye on him. If the emperor comes, please stop him. If the emperor sees this injury, I won't be able to explain it."

"Yes."

Shui Zhizi stared at Jasmine's back as she walked out without hesitation, and suddenly felt emotional. Shui Fengguo was really a capable leader. The client had never been able to get rid of him in his life, and even though Jasmine had followed the client for more than ten years, Shui Fengguo was still the first in everything.

Shui Zhizi took great pains to get up from the ground. When she sat on the bed, took off her clothes and saw the wound on her leg, she instantly gave up the idea of ​​not taking medicine.

Shui Zhizi originally wanted to let Si Qingquan see her miserable appearance, so that Si Qingquan would slowly realize that he was not living well in Shuifeng Kingdom. In this way, when she told Si Qingquan that she entered the palace to help him, Si Qingquan would be able to trust her as soon as possible.

With Si Qingquan's trust, it would always be easier to get things done.

Unlike now, she has to guard against the Shuifeng Kingdom, and also think about how to help Si Qingquan under Si Qingquan's defense, and she can't let Si Qingquan think too much. She is almost isolated and helpless. This is really a bit tiring.

Even with the medicine applied now, Si Qingquan could see that she was in a very miserable condition. It was not certain whether she would be able to move her left leg tomorrow. The Shui Feng Kingdom was really cruel.

But Si Qingquan should come to her palace tonight, right? Although she was 90% sure, Shui Zhizi was still a little worried.

"Zhan Ting, do you really think Shui Zhizi can be used?" Thinking about the conversation with Zuo Zhan Ting just now, Si Qingquan couldn't help but ask again.

Zuo Zhanting just said that according to the news he heard in the army, Shui Zhizi and Shui Fengguo are different. As long as Shui Zhizi knew what Shui Fengguo did to the people for power, Shui Zhizi should stand on their side.

If Si Qingquan had heard this before the banquet, he would have sneered at it, but now he couldn't help but want to agree with Zuo Zhanting.

"Your Majesty, I have investigated everything you asked me to investigate. The Queen really won her position as a general step by step on the battlefield. She is never lenient towards her enemies, and even worse towards traitors. And after she became the commander of an army, that army obviously treated the people better."

"This should prove that she doesn't know about the cooperation between Shuifeng Kingdom and Jin Kingdom. As long as she really cares about the people, she may stand on your side."

"And..." Zuo Zhanting thought of the way Shui Zhizi looked at him just now. That look was very strange, but Zuo Zhanting only felt kindness in it. When Shui Zhizi looked at him like that, Zuo Zhanting actually felt very close to her, so he suggested pulling Shui Zhizi over.

However, Zuo Zhanting did not intend to express this inexplicable feeling. "Besides, the queen is too outstanding. If we become her enemy, our road will only become more difficult."

Yes, Shui Zhizi's military achievements were not arranged for her by Shui Fengguo, so her prestige in the army was real. Si Qingquan had just witnessed Shui Zhizi's wisdom. It was a very unwise choice to make an enemy of such a person.

But would Shui Zhizi really betray her father? With such doubts, Si Qingquan personally sent Zuo Zhanting out of the palace and went to Shui Zhizi's bedroom.

"Yes, she deserves to betray." Si Qingquan thought so as he watched Shui Zhizi fall to the ground with red and swollen cheeks.

Shui Zhizi's face turned even redder as Si Qingquan stared at her with a surprised look. Her previous redness and swelling were caused by being beaten, but now Shui Zhizi's face turned red out of embarrassment.

Shui Zhizi wanted to win Si Qingquan's sympathy by showing her miserable appearance, but she didn't want such a shameful scene.
