The quick travel journey of the cold heroine

Chapter 42: The Daughter of a Traitor (42)

"Your Majesty, everyone else says that women are made of water, but I think Your Majesty is made of water." Shui Gardenia tried hard not to reveal sadness in her words.

Si Qingquan felt pain in his heart, and disappointment flashed in his eyes. "The Queen is not made of water, she is made of iron. Her body is made of iron and she can endure any injury. Her heart is also made of iron. No one can change your decision." Si Qingquan's tears flowed even harder as he spoke.

Shui Zhizi could understand Si Qingquan's weakness and request, and Si Qingquan could naturally understand Shui Zhizi's determination.

"I have a stomachache. Zuo Zhanting lied to me that he likes you, and I couldn't sleep for several days. Shui Fengguo locked me up in the palace and didn't let anyone bring me proper meals. The ministers have been doing nothing these days and are waiting for me to make decisions. The imperial kitchen has not been able to figure out my preferences for so many years. Shui Zhizi, I can't live well without you." Si Qingquan was heartbroken.

Shui Zhizi rarely turned her head away from Si Qingquan's sight. Even Shui Zhizi couldn't stand the fact that someone who was always calm and rational suddenly showed weakness.

But a short pain is worse than a long one. Shui Zhizi always remembered that her mission was to make Zuo Zhanting well.

Sensing Shui Zhizi's determination, Si Qingquan finally gave up hope. He took the handkerchief from Shui Zhizi's hand and wiped his tears. His already red and swollen eyes had several more red marks because of his reckless actions.

If there was no other way, Si Qingquan would never show weakness in front of Shui Zhizi in his life. Since such showing of weakness is useless, Si Qingquan just wants Shui Zhizi to remember his best self.

"What if I use Zuo Zhanting to threaten you to stay?" Si Qingquan's voice was still tearful.

"The emperor won't." Shui Zhizi said firmly.

Si Qingquan closed his eyes and suppressed his tears. "Yeah, I can't, so I can't do anything to you."

Si Qingquan figured it out last night. As long as Shui Zhizi didn't want to stay, he would have no way to deal with her.

"Are you going to meet Shui Fengguo?" Since it would be useless to say more, let's make the last moments of their lives meaningful.

Shui Zhizi felt a lump in her nose and tears welled up in her eyes. Si Qingquan agreed.

"No, Your Majesty, please deal with the person as soon as possible to avoid any more trouble." She had said everything that needed to be said in her previous life. There was nothing more to say between her and Shuifeng Kingdom.

"Yeah." Si Qingquan agreed as if nothing had happened.

Si Qingquan did not tell Shui Zhizi that he had someone break Shui Fengguo's hands and feet before coming here. Because even if he told Shui Zhizi, it would not change the fact that Shui Zhizi had been tortured like that.

What Shui Zhizi didn't know was that Si Qingquan finally decided to let him go because he felt sorry for her. He felt sorry for all the suffering Shui Zhizi had endured in this place, and he felt that Shui Zhizi should be allowed to leave this horrible place.

So Si Qingquan had actually made the decision last night, otherwise he would not have told the court officials at the morning court today that he wanted to divorce Shui Zhizi. But when he saw Shui Zhizi today, he found that he still couldn't bear to let her go.

"Can you leave later? We've been married for so long, wasting time on other people's affairs every day, and we haven't been able to spend time together properly."

Faced with Si Qingquan's repeated retreat, Shui Zhizi finally couldn't control her tears. Even as she was crying, Shui Zhizi still shook her head firmly. "Your Majesty, I'm afraid I won't be able to bear it."

Si Qingquan was extremely careful when wiping Shui Zhizi's tears. "The queen is really made of iron."

"Then go now that you are well. I will feel more at ease."

"it is good."

Shui Zhizi thought that this was their final farewell, but every day after that, Si Qingquan would ride to the villa to accompany her after court, and then return to the palace before dark.

It was obvious that Shui Zhizi's injury was in her stomach, but as soon as Si Qingquan came, she had to take care of her eating, drinking, taking medicine, and even dressing.

Fearing that Shui Zhizi would be bored, Si Qingquan began to read storybooks to her himself. Shui Zhizi thought this was not a good idea, so she suggested that Si Qingquan play chess with her, but Si Qingquan said he didn't want to play chess at all.

It was not until Shui Zhizi heard Si Qingquan tell Amo that he should never let her see the chessboard again no matter where she was in the future that she understood everything.

Shui Zhizi thought she had to leave as soon as possible, if she continued like this she would really be kept by Si Qingquan.

Si Qingquan did not feel happy at all when Shui Zhizi suddenly kissed him. Both Shui Zhizi's abnormality and Zuo Zhanting's performance in the past few days clearly told Si Qingquan that Shui Zhizi was leaving.

"Take Doctor Li with you. Ah Mo has long stopped listening to me. You can take her with you as well."

Shui Zhizi heard Si Qingquan say this before her lips left Si Qingquan's face.

"I don't know when the emperor knows me so well." Shui Zhizi said sadly.

"What's the use of understanding me further? It's too late. Gardenia, take good care of yourself. If you meet an ordinary person who will not give up on you no matter what happens in the future, forget me and live a good life with him." Si Qingquan's heart was bleeding when he said this.

But Shui Zhizi had such a hard life in the first twenty years of her life. No one loved her, cared about her, or concerned about her. Si Qingquan really couldn't let Shui Zhizi live so lonely in the second half of her life.

Zuo Zhanting has already given everything for David, he can't be so selfish.

Shui Zhizi was dumbfounded, but finally nodded. Si Qingquan was indeed the most rational, and also the most ruthless to himself.

Shui Zhizi left on the day when Shui Fengguo was beheaded. Zuo Zhanting was supervising the execution and Si Qingquan was arranging the imperial examination. Shui Zhizi did not tell any of them. But she brought Doctor Li and Amo with her.

"Doctor Li, have you really thought it through? If you follow me, you will just be a commoner."

"Oh, I've thought about it. The emperor has sent my son to the Imperial Hospital, and my wife has been dead for many years. What's wrong with me wanting to go out for a walk? And can your body bear to be without me now?"

Doctor Li always felt that Shui Zhizi would be different from others even if she became a commoner. He would regret it if he didn't go with her to see it.

From now on, she will live well somewhere in David, and watch Zuo Zhanting and Si Qingquan manage David better and better. She wants to see Zuo Zhanting live a peaceful and happy life.

"Shui Zhizi, you really don't want the emperor and General Zuo to send you off? They are your husband and your own brother. If you really don't want them, then just don't do it." After taking off his identities as the imperial physician and the queen, Doctor Li became more and more unscrupulous in front of Shui Zhizi.

"Doctor Li, please note that this is my divorced husband." Shui Zhizi said with a smile. Si Qingquan had already announced her true identity and their divorce to the world.

"Besides, who said I don't want my brother anymore? We will continue to exchange letters, okay? And there are so many things going on in the court right now. You know how busy my brother is. When the time comes, we will meet naturally."
