The quick travel journey of the cold heroine
Chapter 7: The Daughter of a Traitor (7)
Si Qingquan arrived much faster than Shui Zhizi had expected. Shui Zhizi thought that he and Zuo Zhanting had not seen each other for a long time and would have a night talk. However, Si Qingquan arrived only a quarter of an hour after Shui Fengguo left.
This was of course because Zuo Zhanting was a law-abiding minister who always remembered to leave the palace before the palace gates were closed, but Shuifengguo never cared about this.
In a quarter of an hour, Shui Zhizi moved herself from the ground to the bed. Because the pain was too severe, she had not made up her mind to apply medicine. It hurt when touched, and the medicine had to be rubbed into the body. Shui Zhizi had been preparing herself mentally.
So much so that when Shui Zhizi heard Moli's deliberately amplified greeting voice while applying medicine on her leg, she instantly became anxious. Mainly because she was afraid that Si Qingquan would think too much when he saw her disheveled appearance, and she didn't want Si Qingquan to have a worse impression of her.
However, Shui Zhizi was also thinking that she had just asked Jasmine to go out and keep an eye on it, so Jasmine would definitely delay for a while. As a result, just as Shui Zhizi had packed her clothes and was about to get out of bed, Si Qingquan came in.
Shui Zhizi's first reaction was naturally to get out of bed and salute, but her legs were so painful that she couldn't stand steadily, and she was still anxious, so this scene happened: Shui Zhizi fell in front of Si Qingquan.
Shui Zhizi was in a bad mood. How could she be so unlucky and embarrassed today? Si Qingquan must be gloating in his heart, after all, it was the daughter of Shui Fengguo who was embarrassed.
Now that things have come to this, Shui Zhizi can only get up from where she fell as if nothing had happened.
Shui Zhizi got up in a hurry, so she naturally didn't notice Si Qingquan's quickened pace and the hand he almost couldn't control that was about to be stretched out.
"Your Highness." Shui Zhizi finally got up and gave Si Qingquan a not-so-standard salute. If it weren't for the pain in her legs, Shui Zhizi would rather Si Qingquan didn't let her get up, because she didn't want to look up and see Si Qingquan's mocking face.
She had never really been so embarrassed.
At this moment, Si Qingquan finally couldn't help but helped Shui Zhizi up, "Get up, go sit down."
When he first saw Shui Zhizi falling in front of him, Si Qingquan thought that Shui Zhizi was trying to play some tricks, but when he saw Shui Zhizi's swollen cheeks, Si Qingquan's idea faded a little.
When he saw Shui Zhizi crawling up and found that her leg was also injured, this thought completely disappeared. He even began to sympathize with Shui Zhizi uncontrollably.
Who else but Shuifeng Kingdom could treat Shui Zhizi like this? As for the reason why Shuifeng Kingdom did this, it was obvious.
Although Si Qingquan had hardly seen Shui Zhizi except for the wedding night and the banquet just now, he could tell from their brief interactions that Shui Zhizi was a proud person. She had a straight back like other generals. But now she was in such a mess.
"She should have betrayed the Shuifeng Kingdom. She shouldn't have been treated like this." Si Qingquan thought.
When Shui Zhizi heard Si Qingquan's voice, she just stood up straight instead of sitting down.
"Your Majesty, why are you here so late?" Shui Zhizi didn't even look up at Si Qingquan when she spoke. She really felt so ashamed.
Looking at Shui Zhizi like this, Si Qingquan's mind inexplicably appeared the few scenes of him and Shui Zhizi talking. Shui Zhizi always looked into his eyes with just the right smile on her face.
Before, Si Qingquan thought Shui Zhizi was hypocritical, but now the way Shui Zhizi was trying so hard made Si Qingquan feel depressed for a moment.
"Go and sit down." This was probably the most gentle time Si Qingquan spoke to Shui Zhizi.
Shui Zhizi, who was still adjusting her mood, didn't notice it at all.
After receiving Si Qingquan's order to let her sit down again, Shui Zhizi no longer held on. She raised her head with a proper smile on her face. "Your Majesty, please sit down first."
At this time, Shui Zhizi didn't know how scary her face was. Because her legs were so painful and it affected her walking, Shui Zhizi didn't pay attention to her face. When she felt stiff when she smiled, Shui Zhizi realized that she was probably facing Si Qingquan with a red and swollen face.
Si Qingquan found the extremely clear fingerprints on Shui Zhizi's face and the forced smile extremely annoying.
Si Qingquan turned around and sat on the chair. His original intention was that as long as he, the emperor, sat down, Shui Zhizi would also sit down and rest. However, when Si Qingquan sat down and turned around, he saw Shui Zhizi moving firmly. A trace of guilt rose uncontrollably in his heart. He should have sat on the bed nearby so that Shui Zhizi could walk less.
But in the end, Si Qingquan did nothing. He calmly withdrew his hand that was about to help Shui Zhizi.
Shui Zhizi limped for a long time to walk the short few steps. Si Qingquan discovered another problem. From beginning to end, no matter how embarrassed Shui Zhizi was, her personal maid did not appear to help her.
Si Qingquan pretended to be unconscious and turned his head, and finally found Jasmine, who had been standing motionless at the door but her eyes were fixed on the situation inside.
Is this a maid? This might be someone who is monitoring Shui Zhizi? Si Qingquan had no idea that Mo Li might be here to monitor him as the emperor, because Shui Zhizi and Mo Li had never taken the initiative to look for him after entering the palace.
Si Qingquan found that his emotions were completely out of his control today, and he even began to feel sorry for Shui Zhizi.
For the ambition of Shuifeng State, she came to the palace alone and was always under the surveillance of her father. If she made any mistake, Shuifeng State would know about it. She also had to face the cold treatment of the emperor and had to be cautious everywhere.
This is probably not the first time Shui Zhizi has suffered such an injury. Si Qingquan suddenly remembered the scene when he strangled Shui Zhizi's neck fiercely on their wedding night.
At that time, he just wanted to strangle Shui Zhizi to death. The next day, when he saw Shui Zhizi facing such bruises without saying a word, he just thought that Shui Zhizi was pretending to be very good, but maybe she was just used to such injuries.
"Shui Zhizi, if you can stand on my side, I will never let you get hurt like this again." At this moment Si Qingquan forgot all the words he had thought of on the way here, and only this sentence remained in his mind.
But he said nothing in the end. Si Qingquan would not never be an adventurous person. Even if he saw a different Shui Zhizi tonight, he would always remember that this was the daughter that Shui Fengguo had raised.
"The master is injured and you don't even know to call the imperial physician?" Si Qingquan's eyes were sharp.
"Yes, I'll go right away." No one saw the joy in Jasmine's eyes when she turned and left. As expected, what the young lady said was right, and the emperor's attitude towards the young lady really changed. But if the emperor knew that the young lady's injury was caused by the prime minister, would it really not have any impact on the prime minister?
