The quick travel journey of the cold heroine

Chapter 127: A Commoner Woman's Revenge on the Powerful (35)

Yes, only those who know the significance of the relationship between Shui Zhizi and Prince Rui’s Mansion to the court struggle would be wary of Shui Zhizi.

Ying Wan'er is a person who only cares about love. She doesn't care about the court disputes at all and only wants to make herself happy.

If Ying Wan'er was concerned about the court struggle, she would not take action against Ren Yue's family at this time.

Because people in the court will definitely have complaints about Li Chuan because of this matter.

But is Ying Wan'er really so stupid now that she doesn't even care about her husband?

Qi Yu shook his head. Now was not the time to think about this.

What he needs to solve now is the problem of Shui Zhizi's departure. Shui Zhizi is a man of his words.

If he fails to appease Shui Zhizi, there might not be a person named Shui Zhizi in the capital tomorrow.

Shui Zhizi's reckless throwing of torches in Mingyuan Hall left a deep psychological trauma on Qi Yu.

"What happened to Ren Yue's family may not be Ying Wan'er's doing. If Ren Yue's family gets into trouble at this time, it won't benefit Ying Wan'er at all. She shouldn't be that stupid."

Shui Zhizi's eyes flashed slightly. She had long known that Qi Yu was actually very smart.

"Qi Yu, you don't understand. To me, it doesn't matter what happens to Ren Yue's family. What matters is that through Ren Yue's incident, I know that Ying Wan'er is someone I cannot mess with."

"I know. Don't worry. Just listen to me first. I can solve all the problems you are worried about." Qi Yu said solemnly.

"First, no matter what happens to you, Dad and I will protect you. As long as Ying Wan'er attacks you, Dad and I will definitely not sit idly by, you can rest assured about this.

Of course, we are always careless sometimes, but you have to know that Ying Wan'er herself is not a big trouble. The generals behind her are the ones you have to guard against.

When I go back today, I will ask my father to have a talk with those generals and see their attitudes.

If they really have bad intentions towards you, I can just tell you the identities of those people so you can be prepared."

Shui Zhizi's tense heart finally began to relax after Qi Yu said this. This was Shui Zhizi's purpose.

With her status and position, it is absolutely impossible for her to find out the identities of all the generals behind Ying Wan'er.

But if she asked King Rui directly, she would definitely arouse his suspicion.

That's why she planned all this after Ren Yue's matter was over.

Only in this way can we avoid arousing King Rui's suspicion and obtain the most complete information as quickly as possible.

Shui Zhizi was already prepared. If Qi Yu did not notice her abnormality today, or could not get the result she wanted, she would take the initiative to find King Rui tomorrow.

Shui Zhizi felt that King Rui should give her the information she wanted.

Since she started working with King Rui, she has never asked him a question about court matters and has only been doing her own business.

If King Rui doesn't give it, Shui Zhizi will have to think of other ways.

"You are telling me about the affairs of the court officials because you think I am dying too slowly?" Shui Zhizi certainly could not show her true thoughts in front of Qi Yu at this moment.

"So what, you're just trying to protect yourself and you're not going to use this information for anything?

Besides, after General Ying died, those generals had already stood up and said that they would absolutely protect Ying Wan'er from then on.

Therefore, it was public knowledge in the court who stood on Ying Wan'er's side, and some people would know it with just a little inquiry.

It's just that you have never been interested in the affairs of the court, so you don't know anything."

"Will this really work? If officials in the court want to take action against me, can an ordinary businessman like me really defend myself?" Shui Zhizi was still very scared.

"Oh, you have to believe in yourself. Most military commanders are stubborn. With your ability, it shouldn't be a problem to protect yourself."

"Let me think about it." Shui Zhizi was very unconfident.

The most troublesome thing is that they are so stubborn that sometimes they don't even know right from wrong and just stubbornly protect Ying Wan'er.

"Don't think too much. Just listen to me. I'm going back to my father now. You just need to focus on your business." Qi Yu said and ran away.

Shui Zhizi silently said from behind, "I'm sorry, Qi Yu."

Prince Rui and Qi Yu are truly on her side, but she still wants to use them both.

"I swear that after completing the mission, I will do my best to protect the Rui Palace. As long as those generals are not protecting Ying Wan'er without knowing right from wrong, I will never do anything to them."

In fact, Shui Zhizi had not figured out what to do after getting the news about those generals. It was really difficult for her to deal with the generals in the court on her own.

Qi Yu was very efficient. He arrived at Corning Building at noon, and King Rui came to see Shui Zhizi the next day.

"Your Majesty."

King Rui was surprised when he saw Shui Zhizi's listless look.

“When I heard Qi Yu say that, I didn’t believe it. You really are frightened by such a small thing.”

"Your Majesty, there are probably very few people in this world who are not afraid of death."

"I thought you were one of them. Didn't you commit suicide at the Prince's Mansion?"

"Your Highness, I know a little bit about medicine, and I know how to act with discretion. I am not someone who would commit suicide."

"That's good. You know how precious life is." King Rui joked.

King Rui could also understand Shui Zhizi's concerns. After all, it was not easy for a woman like Shui Zhizi to have come this far and have such a reputation and achievements.

It would be such a pity if someone died unjustly for no apparent reason.

In the final analysis, it is because King Zhan does not know the seriousness of his actions. Why would he attack Ying Wan'er for no reason?

And Ying Wan'er's experience is exactly the same as Shui Zhizi's. Isn't this obviously making Ying Wan'er hate Shui Zhizi?

Several military generals sued a small businessman in the court. If it weren't for him, Shui Zhizi would have died countless times by now.

Qi Yu was right. It was time to let Shui Zhizi know some news so that she could be prepared.

If those generals had not sued Shui Zhizi in the court, Prince Rui might not have told Shui Zhizi about those generals, after all, they were all ministers in the court.

But because of what happened, King Rui was willing to give Shui Zhizi some information.

With Shui Zhizi's status, she may not even have the chance to meet the emperor in this lifetime.

However, those people went straight to make accusations without any evidence. Isn't this obviously bullying?

"I have already had someone investigate. The incident at the home of the girl surnamed Ren was not done by Ying Wan'er. Only a few empty houses were burned. The people in the Ren family should be fine."

It's different when you have power. You can be efficient in everything you do, Shui Zhizi thought.

"So Ren Yue is wrongly accusing Madam Li, and the whole family is absconding out of fear of crime?"

Disgust flashed in Prince Rui's eyes. "It's true. Ren Yue is telling the truth." Ying Wan'er has been going more and more excessive in recent years.
