The quick travel journey of the cold heroine

Chapter 182 The Princess Who Struggled to Protect Herself (36)

"Don't you know how to break in?"

"We promised the Queen that no one could enter or leave the courtyard without her permission."

So the king didn't remember any of the conditions he promised Shui Zhizi, or he didn't want to abide by any of them.

Before Xin Zhuyin swung the whip for the second time, Xin Zhuyou promptly added what Shui Zhizi had asked him to say.

He couldn't have any marks of being beaten on his body today.

The queen said that if he could spread the message well this time and avoid being beaten, she would invite him to celebrate the New Year with the people of Dongmeng tomorrow.

Xin Zhuyou had already seen Shui Zhizi's mansion decorated with lights and colors, and he wanted to feel the liveliness and warmth that he had never experienced before.

"I tried, but was beaten out by the Queen's guards."

The whip that Xin Zhuyin didn't swing out hit the table hard, and the teacup that was hit was broken directly.

This shows how angry Xin Zhuyin was.

“No wonder you’ve been so easy to talk to recently, it turns out you were waiting for me here, trying to take food and control me.

Who gave her the courage?"

Xin Zhuyou lowered his head and said nothing. The king was always like this. He clearly had no means to control others, but he always used some little tricks to disgust others.

Whenever I embarrass myself, I get angry and embarrassed.

Where does Shui Zhizi get the courage to do this?

Shui Zhizi has been in Lai State for a year, but with just one word from her, the food that has already been sent to the East Meng border can be pulled back. This is Shui Zhizi's confidence.

As for the Kingdom of Kelai, all the money earned from the fruit and vegetable business this year would probably have to be used to buy food.

"You are dumb, don't you know how to do it?"

Xin Zhuyin looked at Xin Zhuyou who looked as if nothing had happened, and the whip in his hand was ready to move.

But he still had some sense and knew that he had to rely on Xin Zhuyou to find a solution, so he didn't really swing the whip.

But this time Xin Zhuyin was going to be disappointed, as Shui Zhizi was determined to teach him a lesson.

Xin Zhuyou also didn't want to be embarrassed in front of Shui Zhizi because of Xin Zhuyin's inconsistency, so no one could help him this time.

"I cannot see the queen, and I do not know what she thinks. Please punish me, Your Majesty."

Xin Zhuyin's whip finally swung out. Xin Zhuyou looked at the merciless force and dodged an inch without making a sound.

He caught the whip with his shoulder and prevented it from falling on his face.

As long as the wounds on Shui Zhizi are not visible, it doesn't count as a beating.

But unfortunately, the end of the whip happened to fall on the exposed neck.

Xin Zhuyou felt a chill in his heart as he felt the stinging pain on his neck. A flash of self-mockery flashed across his face. After all, he was not worthy of spending the New Year with Shui Zhizi and the others.

Xin Zhuyin had not yet felt relieved when he saw the next whip was about to be thrown when someone rushed in.

"Your Majesty, something bad has happened. The people watching the Queen said that the Queen has allowed the Sixth Prince to enter the palace."

Xin Zhuyin's face turned pale in an instant. It was too late for him to get angry. An unprecedented fear overwhelmed him.

The scene of Shui Zhizi threatening him a year ago appeared in his mind with extreme clarity.

His hand holding the whip trembled slightly.

Xin Zhuyin knew better than anyone that the Sixth Prince, who already had a high reputation in the court, would be driven off the throne if he got the support of Princess Dongmeng.

Wang Weixin and Zhu Yin reacted quickly when it came to the matter.

He quickly walked up to Xin Zhuyou and said, "Follow me to the Queen's residence."

Xin Zhuyou looked at his clothes that were torn by the whip and felt bitter.

"Forget it, go get the money that Yan Guo paid us for this business deal, and take it all with you.

I will go write a letter to Emperor Dongmeng first. He will wait for me outside the royal court in two quarters of an hour."

Xin Zhuyou breathed a sigh of relief. He now had time to change his clothes.

"Yes."

When Xin Zhuyou turned around to leave, he heard Xin Zhuyin still giving instructions to the people around him.

"Mei Fei has behaved improperly and is under house arrest for one year."

Look, the king clearly knows better than anyone what he did wrong, but he insists on waiting until everything is irreversible before he wants to correct it.

Since Xin Zhuyin showed up in person, Shui Zhizi naturally let people into the mansion.

But even though he had just entered the mansion, no one understood what Xin Zhuyin said about water gardenia.

Xin Zhuyin told Shui Zhizi everything he had done.

Shui Zhizi seemed extremely shocked.

"Your Majesty, why are you giving me money? I have already received my share of the business with Yan State. Besides, I am not short of money now."

Xin Zhuyin was smart. The deposit from Yan State could not even buy half of the grain that Dong Meng was going to give to Lai State.

Moreover, she just found out that Xin Zhuyin had actually deducted her share of the money from the business with Yan Guo.

“As for the fact that Concubine Mei behaved improperly and was confined by the king, the king can make the decision himself.

I have been living outside the royal court and have had little communication with Concubine Mei. She also kept her promise and has never appeared in front of me.

I said at the beginning that as long as she doesn't appear in front of me, I won't care about her affairs. "

Among all the things Xin Zhuyin did, Shui Zhizi took the matter of Concubine Mei the least seriously.

If she had not been reported in public and she had to maintain her dignity as queen, she would not have even asked a single question about the matter.

Shui Zhizi didn't expect that Xin Zhuyin would actually confine Concubine Mei.

"Also, the king promised my brother that he would inform me of my current situation every six months, but he has only sent out the first letter?

No wonder my brother has been sending me urgent letters these past few months, always asking me if anything happened. I said no, but my brother still didn't believe me. "

Shui Zhizi looked simple and innocent again, unaware of the sufferings of the world, but Xin Zhuyin, who had been threatened by Shui Zhizi, no longer believed in Shui Zhizi's innocence.

But even if he understood it clearly in his heart, facing Shui Zhizi's words that pretended to be ignorant, Xin Zhuyin couldn't even say a word of rebuttal.

He was not right in any of these matters.

But he really couldn't bring himself to mention the food and Shui Gardenia's meeting with the Sixth Prince.

Looking at Shui Zhizi smiling as if nothing had happened, Xin Zhuyin would rather Shui Zhizi spoke frankly like she did when she threatened him before.

At least at that time he would know what Shui Zhizi really wanted.

Xin Zhuyin's face turned pale and then blue, but Shui Zhizi pretended not to notice. She drank her tea with a calm expression.

"Your Majesty, I am about to prepare dinner. Would you like to stay and eat?"

Xin Zhuyin's forced gentleness finally collapsed when Shui Zhizi ordered him to leave.

"Shui Zhizi, what on earth are you..."

"Queen, I asked the king to come to see you today because I want to ask you, Dong Meng promised to send food to Lai every year, why is there no movement this year?"

Before Xin Zhuyin got angry at Shui Zhizi, Xin Zhuyou, who had been standing behind Xin Zhuyin, stood up.

Shui Zhizi put down the teacup with a surprised look on her face. "What did the king want to say just now?"
