Chapter 172 The Princess Who Struggled to Protect Herself (26)
Shui Zhizi was in a bad mood, and the king was not in a good state today. Xin Zhuyou suppressed his worries and said nothing.
In this way, the three of them walked in silence all the way, one riding a horse and two taking a carriage to Shui Zhizi's house.
Shui Zhizi's mansion has not yet been named because Shui Zhizi has not yet decided on a name.
However, Shui Zhizi thought that it would be better to have no name so that fewer people knew about it. But Shui Zhizi was overthinking it. No one in the Royal Court of Lai Kingdom did not know where Shui Zhizi lived outside the Royal Court.
Even when Shui Zhizi had just entered the mansion and was about to ask someone to send Xin Zhuyou, who had been hesitant to speak, away, someone came to visit.
It was the Sixth Prince Xin Zhushi.
Shui Zhizi, who was already angry, looked at Xin Zhuyou with a hint of sarcasm before saying to Yingfu, "Go tell the people outside that I will not see guests outside the royal court. If anyone insists on breaking in, I will beat them out."
Yingfu was told to pass on the message.
"Why, King You, are you satisfied with my arrangement? Are you still relieved?"
Xin Zhuyou didn't answer, he just lowered his head and waited for Shui Zhizi to get angry. He could see that Shui Zhizi was in a very bad mood today.
“Go back and tell your king that I, the Princess of Dongmeng, keep my word and will never interfere in the internal strife of your country of Lai.
Please don't be a traitor as a king. If this happens again, I will make today's threat a reality."
Xin Zhuyou My heart skipped a beat. The relationship between the two of them was even worse than he had expected.
"I understand. I will definitely pass on the queen's words."
Shui Zhizi didn't respond, but just stared at Xin Zhuyou until Xin Zhuyou couldn't help but raise his head until his eyes met Shui Zhizi's.
Shui Zhizi continued to speak, "Don't be so smart. What I want is for you to convey my message exactly as it is."
When communicating with someone like Xin Zhuyin, you can only get the desired results by being more direct and forceful than him.
Otherwise he will just be taking advantage of others.
"I understand." Xin Zhuyou knew Xin Zhuyin better than Shui Zhizi, so he naturally knew how to pass the message to achieve the effect Shui Zhizi wanted.
"It's nothing, you can go too." Xin Zhuyou's obedient look made Shui Zhizi regain some sanity.
She also knew that she was taking her anger out on others today.
But Xin Zhuyou did not leave immediately.
"I would like to thank the Queen for the title and fiefdom she secured for me yesterday. I would also like to thank the Queen on behalf of the soldiers of Lai State for saving my life."
Shui Zhizi felt even more annoyed when she saw Xin Zhuyou performing the ceremony.
If everyone in Lai was as smart as Xin Zhuyou and knew their place, she would be able to feel more relaxed.
She was also very annoyed that she and Xin Zhuyin had such a mess right after getting married.
But in this situation she cannot retreat, because if she retreats once, she will retreat every time.
"It's just a coincidence. King You doesn't need to take it to heart."
Of course he had to keep it in mind, otherwise who would pass on the message to her in the future.
If Xin Zhuyou really dares not to take it to heart this time, Shui Zhizi will of course go help others next time.
How can something that costs so much money be easy?
Shui Zhizi doesn't take it to heart, but it's enough that he takes it to heart.
When Yingfu came in after delivering his message, he bumped into Xin Zhuyou who was about to leave.
Yingfu politely greeted Xin Zhuyou as Shui Zhizi had instructed before continuing to walk inside.
Xin Zhuyou touched his heart and smiled bitterly. This Lai country finally had someone of noble birth who truly respected him.
Unlike in other royal palaces, from masters to servants, he faced either contempt or sympathy.
But he left a bright moon for himself, but will this bright moon be happy here?
"Princess, it's a good thing you had planned to take this house. Otherwise, you would have nowhere to go after the quarrel with the king and would have been forced to stay in the royal court."
But no matter where the Royal Court of Lai is, it is the territory of King Lai, and it is possible to encounter the untrustworthy King Lai at any time.
Yingfu finally understood what the princess said when she wanted this place not only to research grain, fruits and vegetables for the State of Lai, but also for herself.
"How's the medicine I asked the doctor to prepare?"
Yingfu pursed his lips and said, "Princess, the doctor said that contraceptive pills are harmful to your body."
And because the Lai royal court was full of Lai people, the princess was afraid of causing trouble, so she didn't take the medicine immediately.
Nowadays, if you take medicine, you can only use stronger ones, which will be more harmful to your body.
Shui Zhizi didn't even blink, "I will never have children in this lifetime, so it doesn't matter."
Yingfu froze. “Why?”
Although it is obvious now that King Lai is not a very good person, with the princess's ability, it is not a problem for her to protect and raise a child well.
"Yingfu, if Lai country remains so weak, as the prince of Lai country, what good results do you think will come to him?
If Lai State becomes stronger in the future, will they still be as afraid of Dong Meng as they are now? No, they will only be on guard against Dong Meng. "
Water Gardenia is determined.
“The reason why I can be so powerful now is because Lai State is totally insignificant in front of Dong Meng.
They didn't even dare to think of resisting Dong Meng.
But this will not be the case if Lai State becomes stronger.
They will begin to be on guard and even resist, and suppress me, the Princess of Dongmeng.
If he has a child, he will never be recognized by the Lai Kingdom, and his situation will be very embarrassing. He will never be happy in his life. "
"But what if it's a girl? If it's a girl, there won't be any problem, right? If it's a boy, the princess can just stop the child from fighting for the throne."
The princess' children can live well with or without the throne.
"Yingfu, how many princesses of Lai did you meet at the wedding banquet?"
All members of the royal family of Lai Kingdom attended Shui Zhizi's wedding banquet.
Yingfu frowned as she thought about it. She had always had a good memory, but at this moment she hesitated.
"I don't think I have ever seen the princess of Lai."
Something flashed in Shui Zhizi's eyes.
"Because except for those who died young or in battle, all the others were married off to other families, without exception."
Yingfu’s face turned pale and he shuddered.
The princess can live a good life in Lai State because Dong Meng is powerful enough.
Similarly, given Lai's national strength, what good results could come from their princess marrying into a foreign alliance?
Yingfu understood.
"As for the boy, with my status as a princess, who do you think would believe that he would not fight for the throne?"
Shui Zhizi is the queen, her child is the legitimate son, and with Dong Meng's help, even if she doesn't fight for her child, there will be a large number of people who want her to fight for it.
Yingfu's eyes turned red. She thought the princess didn't want children, but the time was not right yet.
But now it seems that the princess will never have children in her life.
Is it true that the princess, who is already far away from her motherland, will live out her life alone?
"Yingfu, from the moment I stepped forward to marry, I have already thought about all my future plans.
I have already made all the preparations, you don't need to be sad."
