Chapter 137: A Commoner Woman's Revenge on the Powerful (45)
"Your Highness, I have already forgotten the past. Your Highness is a rare talent, why should I get to know you again?"
The hope in Zheng Hong's eyes slowly faded away. Shui Zhizi really didn't change her original intention.
To this day, Zheng Hong still doesn't know why Shui Zhizi, who has lost her memory, would reject and hate him so much.
"Shui Zhizi, do you know that your eyes never lie? Even if you say something submissive, the stubbornness in your eyes can't be hidden at all."
Shui Zhizi trembled slightly. "Your Highness has misunderstood. I have no disrespect for you and have never done anything bad to you."
"Yes, but can you guarantee that your attitude towards me is the same as your attitude towards Qi Yu and King Rui?"
Zheng Hong never thought that Shui Zhizi would look at him with new eyes. He just wanted Shui Zhizi to treat him the same as others.
But every time Shui Zhizi saw him, the first thing that appeared in her eyes was vigilance.
"Your Highness Prince Zhan, are you kidding? I am a friend of Qi Yu. My Kangning Building and Mingyuan Hall have been developed with the support of Prince Rui's Palace."
How could you ask such a ridiculous question? Shui Zhizi's face expressed this.
With such an expression, Zheng Hong actually felt that he was confused.
In Shui Zhizi's eyes, he was just a person she hated from the beginning.
But in Zheng Hong's eyes, water gardenia has always been different.
Because he understands Shui Zhizi's experience better than the amnesiac Shui Zhizi.
Because I understand, I know how difficult it has been for Shui Zhizi to come this far, and I am even more amazed at Shui Zhizi's tenacity and ability. It is easier for me to look at Shui Zhizi with a new eye.
"The food is here. You should have a good rest after eating. I will be busy now."
Zheng Hong felt that if he continued chatting with Shui Zhizi, he would be bringing shame upon himself.
"Thank you, Your Highness." Shui Zhizi said in a cold tone.
The medicine to treat the epidemic has been developed, and everything else becomes easy.
The number of patients in the isolation area decreased day by day, and the doctors finally had time to breathe. Shui Zhizi also started to make other plans.
Two months later, the epidemic in Liujia Town was completely over, and Shui Zhizi, Wu Kai and others finally set out on their journey back to Beijing.
Zheng Hong also had to return to Beijing to report. He said that Shui Zhizi and Mingyuantang were now more powerful, and it might not be safe to return to Beijing alone, so he asked Shui Zhizi and the others to go with him.
Shui Zhizi did not refuse.
Wu Kai was a little worried when he saw his disciple who was worried all the way. "Why are you not happy when we are about to arrive in the capital?"
Shui Zhizi put down the chopsticks in her hand, with a painful look on her face, "Master, what was I originally going to do when I left Beijing this time?"
"Buy medicinal materials for our Mingyuan Hall and Corning Building." Of course Wu Kai knew this.
Shui Zhizi spread her hands and asked, "Where are the herbs?" She didn't bring back any.
Wu Kai smiled indifferently and said, "This is a good thing. It can be used in more important places."
Shui Zhizi curled her lips and said, "Master, the herbs are gone, and all the money on me is gone. Didn't you notice that I asked Da Zhuang and the others to return to Beijing first? If they don't return to Beijing soon, we won't even be able to afford food."
Before Wu Kai could say anything, he heard Zheng Hong's voice coming from the next table.
"Why didn't you say so earlier? I thought you asked Da Zhuang and the others to go back because you had something urgent to do."
If he had known this would happen, Shui Zhizi should not have agreed when Mingyuantang’s people refused to dine with them.
If he hadn't finally had the chance to sit down and have dinner together today, he would have never known about this.
"Nothing. Da Zhuang has been worried about the business in the building. I am just joking with the master."
Shui Zhizi said the message she wanted to convey and said no more.
Shui Gardenia just wanted to tell everyone why Dazhuang and the guards left early, and it wasn't really about the money.
At this time, Da Zhuang and Yuan Shi were speechless when they saw the man inside the door with half of his face completely burned.
Da Zhuang remembered that they had come to this place once when they were just heading to the capital from the south.
He also asked his employer why he had to take a long detour to come to this remote place.
The boss said he came to see a friend.
Later, the host stayed here for less than a quarter of an hour and then left, so neither he nor the guards entered the yard.
He didn't know that his boss's friend looked like this. The burns on his face looked old, but Da Zhuang still couldn't bear to look at them.
Unexpectedly, Da Zhuang thought of his boss's arm, which seemed to have a burn scar.
That was when they had just met. They went out together to buy medicinal herbs. The boss was slashed on the arm and he was bandaging the wound and saw it.
"Brother Li, the boss asked me to pick you up and bring you to Beijing. He said you had agreed on this before."
Li Shan looked at Da Zhuang with wide eyes. So fast?
The third sister suddenly appeared in front of them last time and said that the next time she would send someone to take them back to the capital, that would be the time to avenge the Li family.
Li Chuan thought that this day was still a long way off, but he didn't expect that Shui Zhizi would send someone over in just over three months.
That day, the third sister asked the couple to stand at the door and recognize the dozen people outside.
The third sister said that as long as they were among these dozen people, no matter who came to pick them up, they just had to follow and there was no need to say too much.
So Li Shan recognized at a glance that Da Zhuang was the person standing in the front that day.
"Okay, let's leave right away."
When the couple learned from the prince the truth about the fire at Li's house, they were filled with hatred.
But they had no choice. Just as the prince said, if they made a fuss at that time, it would only harm Li Chuan's career and even cost them their own lives. It was completely meaningless.
But over the years, the couple has been living in self-blame and helplessness every day.
Now that the third sister said that they could take revenge, the couple would definitely do as the third sister asked.
Li Shan agreed too quickly, and Da Zhuang was a little at a loss.
Who are these two people? The boss hid it from others in order to bring them to Beijing.
Let him and the guards split into two groups. The other guards will return to the capital, and he and Yuan Shi will go to pick them up, and take the small road, so as to get back to the capital before King Zhan and his men.
Although he had doubts in his heart, Da Zhuang always completed Shui Zhizi's instructions very well.
Half a month later, Shui Zhizi and her companions finally returned to Beijing safely. As soon as they entered the city gate, Shui Zhizi took the doctor from Mingyuan Hall and parted ways with Zheng Hong.
Zheng Hong entered the palace, and Shui Zhizi and others returned to Mingyuan Hall.
Shui Zhizi returned to Mingyuan Hall without stopping, thinking that she finally had some time to think about revenge alone.
As soon as I entered the door, I saw King Rui.
"How did the prince know that we would be back today?"
"Boss Shui has done a great job this time. Everyone in Beijing is waiting for you."
"Your Majesty, I have just traveled a long way back and am a little tired. Please just tell me what is the matter."
King Rui looked at Shui Zhizi, who didn't care about her image at all and drank water in big gulps, and felt it was a pity.
