Chapter 117: A Commoner Woman's Revenge on the Powerful (25)
l "So she went to cause trouble for Shui Zhizi at the banquet?"
Ying Wan'er has been arrogant since she was a child. After General Ying died and she was named a princess, she became even more arrogant.
How could she tolerate others comparing her with Shui Zhizi, a commoner?
But although she is proud, she has no ability and always bullies the weak and fears the strong.
Therefore, the person who said these words to her before the banquet must not be someone she could afford to offend, so she could only vent her anger on Shui Zhizi.
But with Ying Wan'er's level, there is no way she could possibly get away with Shui Zhizi.
So she finally got angry and pushed the man into the pond.
What a great plan! From beginning to end, the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess don’t even need to participate in anything. They just need to find someone to say a few words to Ying Wan’er.
It turns out that Ying Wan'er's stupidity is already known to everyone.
However, due to General Ying's remaining prestige in the army, Shui Zhizi was destined not to be able to do anything to Ying Wan'er this time, and he also had to protect Ying Wan'er.
Thinking of the sword that Xiao Wu suffered from Shui Zhizi last time, Zheng Hong became even more annoyed.
Even if Ying Wan'er was pushed into the pond and let her soak in it for the same length of time as the water gardenia, what would be the use?
Shui Zhizi’s injury will not heal suddenly, nor will she forget the injustice she suffered today.
But Zheng Hong couldn't and didn't trust others to solve this matter.
That idiot Ying Wan'er would never go and apologize to Shui Zhizi herself, and might even make things worse.
As for Li Chuan, he absolutely cannot be too involved with Shui Zhizi. So he has to go to Shui Zhizi in person to solve this matter.
Shui Zhizi didn't like him in the first place, and now there was one more thing that Shui Zhizi hated about him.
At this time, Zheng Hong had not yet realized that he had not considered at all the impact of this incident on his cooperation with King Rui.
Instead, he only considered how Shui Gardenia's perception of him would change because of this incident.
Zheng Hong's hands kept tapping on the table, and his annoyance was obvious.
"Your Majesty, I will go to Mr. Shui to apologize and ask for his forgiveness."
"Stay away from her." Zheng Hong roared in a low voice.
After yelling, looking at Li Chuan's slightly surprised eyes, Zheng Hong felt inexplicably guilty.
But there are obviously so many legitimate reasons why Li Chuan cannot see Shui Zhizi, why should he feel guilty?
"Let Ying Wan'er know that you went to see Shui Zhizi specifically. It will be another trouble for Shui Zhizi."
Li Chuan lowered his head in shame again. He didn't know how many maids in the mansion had been replaced because of him.
Even though he was just asking the maid to do something, he never even saw her face.
He didn't want this to happen, but he had no way to deal with Ying Wan'er.
Li Chuan has often wondered how it was possible that he and Ying Wan'er appreciated each other before he lost his memory?
But when he woke up and remembered nothing, people around him told him that he and Ying Wan'er were engaged and would be married soon.
Breaking off an engagement before marriage has a huge impact on a woman's reputation, so even though he didn't know Ying Wan'er at all, he still went ahead and married her.
He thought they could at least treat each other with respect after marriage, but in reality, he and Ying Wan'er found it difficult to even communicate calmly.
Ying Wan'er was almost unwilling to leave his life, she even wanted to trap herself in the tiny space of Li's mansion.
He was not allowed to communicate with anyone, especially women. Whenever he met a woman, no matter what the circumstances, Ying Wan'er would become suspicious like a madman.
After a few years of this kind of life, Li Chuan was almost unable to breathe.
Zheng Hong felt even more guilty when he saw Li Chuan almost unable to stand up straight. He shouldn't have lost his temper with Li Chuan. There must be a reason why Li Chuan had come to this point.
"Okay, go back. I will handle this matter. Don't let Ying Wan'er leave the house again recently."
"I'm sorry to have caused trouble for His Majesty." Li Chuan's voice was weak.
After having Li Chuan sent away, Zheng Hong collapsed weakly on the chair.
He had already figured out why he was special to Shui Zhizi, the moment he couldn't help feeling guilty when facing Li Chuan.
But how could it be possible between him and Shui Zhizi? If he lost the path he was going to take, he would be doomed.
There is not a single person he has to face who doesn't have countless tricks in his mind.
Although Shui Zhizi is smart, stubborn, and bold, she is also someone that can be seen through at a glance. She is not suitable to be around him.
Shui Zhizi has gotten into so much trouble just by doing business with King Rui.
If she gets involved with me again and too many people target her, I may not be able to protect her.
At this moment, Zheng Hong had no idea that if Shui Zhizi was with him, how much help Mingyuan Hall and Corning Building could bring to him.
Zheng Hong, who is the best at weighing the pros and cons in everything, also has a day when he forgets to calculate these things. If others knew about it, they would be shocked.
"Your Highness, Prince Rui wants to see you." Xiao Wu's injuries had almost healed, and he followed Zheng Hong closely.
Zheng Hong picked up the teacup on the table and drank several cups of water in a row. Then he said to Xiao Wu, "Tell King Rui that I already know the matter. I will definitely give him and Boss Shui a satisfactory answer."
When Zheng Hong left Mingyuan Hall, Prince Rui went to the Prince's Mansion. Zheng Hong knew without thinking why Prince Rui came to find him now.
Xiao Wu quickly went out to pass on the message, and when he came back, he was still alone. Prince Rui did not even enter the Zhan Palace.
"Your Majesty, I'll tell the prince that since he was the one who dragged Boss Shui into this, he will definitely protect Boss Shui at all costs."
Zheng Hong chuckled. Shui Zhizi had a good eye for choosing partners. Prince Rui was one of the few people in the capital who valued friendship and loyalty.
It is true that he wants to use Shui Zhizi, but it is also true that he wants to protect Shui Zhizi.
But how to deal with this matter to satisfy Shui Zhizi? Zheng Hong couldn't think of an answer.
In fact, if this happened, as long as Shui Zhizi's life was not in danger, and Zheng Hong wanted to protect Ying Wan'er wholeheartedly, Shui Zhizi would have no way to do anything to them.
But Zheng Hong didn't want to do this. Ying Wan'er needed to learn her lesson, and Shui Zhizi's grievances could not be in vain.
Of course Ying Wan'er and Zheng Hong would punish her, but Zheng Hong from the Crown Prince's Mansion would not let her go. If it weren't for the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess's calculations, Shui Zhizi would not have been targeted by Ying Wan'er.
Zheng Hong was busy trying to find a way to teach Ying Wan'er and the Prince's Mansion a lesson, and Shui Zhizi, who was still lying on the bed, was not idle either.
"Da Zhuang, ask someone to go to Dai Yue Pavilion to inquire whether there is anyone sent by Ying Wan'er or the Li Mansion."
"Okay." Da Zhuang always carries out Shui Zhizi's orders unconditionally.
"Don't go by yourself, and don't let anyone know that we are the ones investigating. Find someone to go."
"it is good."
