The quick travel journey of the cold heroine

Chapter 112: A Commoner Woman's Revenge on the Powerful (2)

"I don't know either, but Boss Shui always has his own ideas, so we don't need to worry about it."

"The prince trusts Boss Shui very much?"

"Since he is my man, I trust him. Besides, what bad things can a man who is willing to risk his life for his master and organize free clinics do?"

The person that King Rui lent to Shui Zhizi stayed in the place arranged by Shui Zhizi for more than a year, but that’s a story for later.

Shui Zhizi was not in a hurry to have her own guards immediately, because she knew that such things could not be rushed, and more importantly, she knew that after the assassination at Kangning Tower, King Rui would not ignore Kangning Tower and Mingyuan Hall.

Shui Zhizi never asked King Rui about the results of the investigation into the assassination, because she knew it was useless to ask. She couldn't do anything to the person behind the scenes with her current ability, and she didn't want to get involved too much in the cooperation between King Rui and King Zhan.

Shui Zhizi certainly knew that she had been dragged into this and had no power to choose.

But Shui Zhizi still wanted to hide as much as possible, at least until she was able to deal with Wan'er.

But it has been exposed to the public, so there is no way Shui Zhizi can hide from it.

When Shui Zhizi received the invitation from the Crown Princess, she had a very strong ominous premonition in her heart, so she wanted to refuse it directly.

She has already stood on the side of Prince Rui, and is obviously on the path of being an enemy of the Crown Prince. What good can come from the Crown Princess looking for her?

Besides, if it weren’t for Prince Rui, who would know what her water gardenia was.

Shui Zhizi was terrified that a princess consort sent an invitation to a businessman.

But an hour and a half after she received the invitation, the third princess Zheng Qian came to her house in person and said that she would accompany Shui Zhizi to the Crown Princess' flower-viewing banquet the next day.

At this point, Shui Zhizi had to go. Shui Zhizi thought that this was arranged by King Rui, who had already found a backer for her.

At this time, Zheng Qian was sitting in the carriage and did not hide the way he was looking at Shui Zhizi.

"Princess, why are you looking at me like that? I dress the way you told me to. Is there anything wrong with that?"

"No, no, very good." Zheng Qian said and continued to stare at Shui Zhizi.

Even though Shui Zhizi is often stared at with curious eyes, she can hardly bear it anymore.

"What is the princess looking at?"

"This princess is just thinking that King Rui asked me to help you because you are a businessman who can help him, but why did my unfathomable fifth brother ask me for help?"

The fifth brother? The War King Zheng Hong? He found the third princess.

Shui Zhizi hid the sneer in her eyes and wondered why Zheng Hong asked the third princess to keep an eye on her.

The Crown Princess invited many wives and daughters of the powerful people in the capital to the banquet this time. Ying Wan'er must be among them. Why could Zheng Hong be the one?

He was probably afraid that something might be exposed if he came into conflict with Ying Wan'er.

"It's no secret that King Zhan and King Rui are working together. King Zhan is probably afraid that my behavior will affect the overall situation."

"Is it really like that?" Zheng Qian didn't believe it.

Her fifth brother usually keeps aloof from everything that has nothing to do with him. Not to mention that Shui Zhizi might not have any problems, even if something did happen, with Zheng Hong's ability, it would only take a few words to distance himself from the matter.

Besides, Zheng Hong's condition when he came to see her was quite different from before.

Also, with Fifth Brother's scheming, it is impossible for him not to know that Prince Rui would definitely be concerned about Shui Gardenia's affairs, but Fifth Brother still intervened in these matters.

There are two possible reasons why the fifth brother did this. First, he was confused by Shui Zhizi and did not think about King Rui's point.

Second, he knew that King Rui would intervene, but he still couldn't help it.

Zheng Qian thought that given Zheng Hong's scheming, the second reason should be the reason. If that was the case, then as the royal sister, she had the obligation to help her brother.

Shui Zhizi didn't understand why the Third Princess looked at her with a teasing look, but she nodded very confidently, "Yes."

"Boss Shui is really... only concerned about his own business."

Shui Zhizi looked at Zheng Qian in confusion, as if asking Zheng Qian, "What do you mean by that?"

Zheng Qian was stunned when he looked at Shui Zhizi's black and white eyes. Everyone said that businessmen were cunning, but there was no calculation in Shui Zhizi's eyes.

Is it really appropriate for her to break this window paper? Zheng Qian suddenly asked herself.

"Nothing, this princess is just praising Boss Shui for his ability."

It's inappropriate. The fight between the fifth brother and the prince has been exposed, and Shui Zhizi has been put in the fire by King Rui.

If she had any other relationship with Lao Wu, her life would be even more difficult.

Zheng Qian is a talkative woman. Even without talking about King Rui and King Zhan, she and Shui Zhizi have a lot in common.

"Don't be nervous. There will be no problem as long as I am with you."

"Thank you, Princess."

Shui Zhizi was prepared to be pushed in front of people again, but unexpectedly, except for the greeting, the Crown Princess did not have any communication with Shui Zhizi from beginning to end.

However, this time Shui Zhizi was treated as a merchant girl should be treated in front of a noble lady in the capital.

However, contempt and sarcasm are easy for Shui Zhizi to deal with.

Unless the person who mocked her was Ying Wan'er.

"Boss Shui is really capable. An orphan girl has run several shops on her own."

Shui Zhizi didn't dare to look up, she was afraid that she couldn't control her eyes. "Not even one ten-thousandth of the Madam."

"I can't compare with Boss Shui. Although you and I are both orphans, I was well protected before my father passed away, so I didn't learn any tricks. Naturally, my reputation can't be compared with Boss Shui's."

Shui Zhizi clenched her hands tightly and almost squeezed out a voice from her throat, "Really? Is this lady also an orphan like me?"

"Why doesn't Boss Shui recognize me?" Ying Wan'er's voice was already filled with emotion.

"Please forgive me, Madam. I have always been thinking about worldly things. I wonder who you are, Madam?"

"Li Chuan, the assistant minister of the Ministry of War, is my husband. Although I am an orphan, I have an excellent husband protecting me."

Li Chuanke's promotion is so fast. The last time I heard his name in Corning Building, it wasn't for this position.

Gardenia still lowered her head, but why did he show off to her? Why did he show off to her among so many people present?

"Really? Madam, you are so lucky. Unlike me, I have to be lonely and helpless all my life. But madam, you know, fate is always fair." Shui Zhizi can ignore anyone's bragging, but not Ying Wan'er's.

"What do you mean?"

"What it means is that I heard that God gives people something and will take something back in return." Shui Zhizi knew that she couldn't show it too much.

"Can you say that again?"

Shui Zhizi finally looked up at Ying Wan'er, and sure enough, her face was as hateful as she imagined.

But how could Ying Wan'er, with such a personality, calculate Li Chuan? She is not very smart.
