In the years of famine, I led a comfortable life with my husband

After this experience, the queen began to take the initiative to plan how to take the universal capsule from Su Zhizhi if she met Su Zhizhi again next time.

Su Zhizhi, on the other hand, had no idea about the Queen's little tricks. After getting away from the Queen and her entourage, Su Zhizhi was afraid of being targeted again, so she wandered around the city for a long time. Only after confirming that there was no one behind her did Su Zhizhi feel a little relieved and returned to the mansion.

Seeing Su Zhizhi come back so late, Xie Chengjin couldn't help but ask in surprise: "What happened? You don't look right."

Su Zhizhi was panting, her face pale, as if she hadn't recovered from the shock yet. Seeing Su Zhizhi like this, Xie Chengjin was naturally worried.

After a long while, Su Zhizhi finally reacted, and turned her somewhat dull eyes to look at Xie Chengjin.

"I had planned to go to Xu Miao's house today, but I found the Queen. Didn't the Queen flee the capital and join the enemy country a long time ago? Why is she still in the capital and hasn't been caught yet?" Su Zhizhi looked at Xie Chengjin, her tone full of confusion.

"What did you say?" Xie Chengjin's face instantly turned serious. This news was particularly shocking to him. "You met the Queen. When? Where?" Xie Chengjin anxiously grabbed Su Zhizhi's shoulders. "Are you okay? Were you discovered? Were you caught by the Queen?"

Su Zhizhi shook her head and soothed, "Don't worry, I'm fine. The Queen is accompanied by some guards who look like they're not from her country. I think they must be sent by the enemy to follow the Queen. I tried to follow them, but they spotted me. Luckily, I escaped first, so they probably don't dare to arrest me in the capital."

Hearing this, Xie Chengjin breathed a sigh of relief. "It's fine as long as nothing happens to you. If it's really as you said, and that's what the Queen said, then the capital will be even less safe for you. It's better not to leave the house on weekdays to avoid being discovered by others."

"But as for the Queen..." Su Zhizhi hesitated.

"Don't worry about the Queen. I will send someone to investigate. If I find anything, I will tell you the first time. You take a rest first. I'll go do something." Xie Chengjin touched Su Zhizhi's head, then stood up and walked out.

There were secret guards waiting outside. Xie Chengjin sent them out to investigate the Queen's affairs.

Afterwards, he rarely went to the study to handle official business, but returned to the house again.

Su Zhizhi heard the noise outside and thought Xie Chengjin would go directly to the study, but unexpectedly the door was pushed open and she was met with Xie Chengjin's smile.

"Huh? Why didn't you go to the study today? But there are fewer government affairs to do today?" Su Zhizhi asked casually.

Xie Chengjin simply sat down beside the bed and said, "You've been so frightened today, I can't handle the government affairs. I'm just here to keep you company."

After saying that, Xie Chengjin reached out and pulled Su Zhizhi into his arms.

Su Zhizhi was caught off guard and was dragged by Xie Chengjin, causing her to stumble and fall into him. Su Zhizhi rubbed her aching forehead and muttered, "It's just a small thing, why should I be afraid? I've already died once, so what else is there to be afraid of?"

Hearing this, Xie Chengjin's hand suddenly retracted, and he turned Su Zhizhi's shoulders and looked at her seriously.

Su Zhizhi was startled by Xie Chengjin's sudden action, then smiled at him, "Don't worry, I'm fine."

Xie Chengjin hugged Su Zhizhi in his arms, as if he was particularly afraid that Su Zhizhi would encounter another accident.

Sensing Xie Chengjin's uneasiness, Su Zhizhi also lay obediently on Xie Chengjin's body. It was very rare to see her so well-behaved.

Looking at Su Zhizhi like this, Xie Chengjin couldn't help but feel distracted, and his hands on Su Zhizhi couldn't help but start to stir up trouble.

Not knowing where he touched, Su Zhizhi moaned, Xie Chengjin's whole body stiffened, and a hint of red appeared in his eyes.

Su Zhizhi stayed awake all night, watching the sky outside the window gradually turn pale. In the end, she didn't even know how she fell asleep.

When Su Zhizhi woke up the next day, she found that her whole body was sore and she couldn't even lift her arms. Xie Chengjin, who was standing next to her, had disappeared long ago and went to the morning court in a refreshed mood.

Seeing this, Su Zhizhi stammered and looked very ugly, which showed how badly she cursed in her heart. Even Xie Chengjin, who was attending the morning court, couldn't help but sneeze.

But just when Su Zhizhi was lying on the bed to rest, the door was suddenly pushed open. "Mr. Su, Mr. Su, you can't... go in..." Su Peizhi pushed the door open expressionlessly, and two guards followed behind him and wanted to stop him. However, before he could finish his words, Su Peizhi had already seen the inside of the room clearly.

Seeing that it was Su Peizhi, Su Zhizhi's heart skipped a beat. She subconsciously touched her face and confirmed that the disguise pill on her face had not lost its effect. Only then did Su Zhizhi breathe a sigh of relief.

"Xie Yun! You are so brave that you even dare to climb onto Lord Xie's bed!" Su Peizhi clenched his fists tightly, suppressing the anger in his heart. His eyes fell on Su Zhizhi's exposed skin. Looking at the ambiguous purple marks on it, Su Peizhi's face was full of disgust.

"You are a woman, so shameless!" Su Peizhi was even more disgusted with Xie Yun.

It was the first time that Su Zhizhi saw Su Peizhi like this. She was not very angry in her heart, but raised her eyebrows in surprise. However, when she looked down and saw her own appearance, Su Zhizhi's face could not help but blush for a moment.

Su Zhizhi's face darkened as she looked at Su Peizhi, "Mr. Su is just staying at the Xie Mansion temporarily, so what reason do you have to blame me?"

"You..." Su Peizhi was furious, and his eyes became more and more unfriendly when he looked at Su Zhizhi. However, when he saw Su Zhizhi was about to get up, he subconsciously turned around. Su Peizhi still remembered the strict rules between men and women.

Su Zhizhi chuckled, took the opportunity to put on her clothes, walked up to Su Peizhi, and asked, "Young Master Su, are you here to see Master Xie? However, Master Xie is probably still in the court at this hour. If you have something to do, you should go to the study later."

Su Peizhi's face suddenly turned cold. "Xie Yun, who do you think you are? How dare you teach me how to do things? My sister just passed away not long ago, and you dared to climb into Xie Chengjin's bed. Even though Xie Chengjin is not a gentleman, it is obvious that you are not a good woman either, you are an adulterer and a whore!"
