The chief guard said, "Lord City Lord, please take them away immediately. By the way, why are you the only one here?"

He felt very strange.

Because in the past, when the city lord traveled, he was always followed by many people.

"What's wrong with me coming alone? Is it not possible?" Zhao Shulin scolded him.

"No, of course."

Shui Qingli continued to stare at him.

Zhao Shulin quickly apologized to Shui Qingli.

"Lord, it's all my fault. I didn't expect my subordinates to be so useless."

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone present was shocked.

What? The King?

How is this going?

Could it be that the woman in front of me is the king Shui Qingli?
Those people who were talking about Shui Qingli just now were all shocked.

Shui Qingli sneered.

"Is it because I haven't succeeded to the throne yet, and the political situation has been a bit turbulent recently, that you can do whatever you want?"

Zhao Shulin quickly apologized and said that this was not the case.

I hope she will forgive herself.

Then he quickly slapped the captain of the guards.

"You bastard, are you looking for death?"

He thought, I absolutely can't let this go.

If his subordinates offended the king, wouldn't his official hat be in danger?

The captain of the guards was so shocked that his jaw dropped.

"My Lord City Lord, what do you say she is?"

Zhao Shulin slapped him again.

"Of course it's the king. You are such a fool, do you want to kill me?"

The captain of the guards had never expected this to happen, so he scolded his cousin, Huangmao and others, asking them why they did this.

Several people also had very ugly expressions on their faces, because they did not expect it to be like this, so they quickly apologized to Shui Qingli.

But Shui Qingli told them that it was too late. They were not three-year-old children. Were they irrational just now?

Why do they talk so much when they talk about themselves?

What’s more important is that their words are so vicious. Now they want me to forgive them. How is that possible?
The captain of the guards immediately knelt down, hoping that Shui Qingli would forgive him.

As long as she can forgive herself, the city lord will not say anything.

"Forgive you? How is that possible? Even if you kneel down, what will happen? In the end, you will only have one ending."

Zhao Shulin also understood immediately and said that he must dismiss the chief guard.

Shui Qingli said he did a good job.

The captain of the guards cried out in pain. He loved this job very much and his family depended on him for support. But what would he do if he lost his job now?
"Lord, I was wrong. You should have given me a chance. How could you have beaten me to death with one blow?"

Shui Qingli said that if he howled louder again, he would be killed.

He had no choice but to stop talking. Zhao Shulin looked at Shui Qingli.

Shui Qingli asked: "What punishment do you think you should receive?"

"I really don't know. I'd better ask the city lord to punish me personally."

Shui Qingli saw that his attitude was pretty good, so he didn't plan to take his life.

In the end, it was decided to remove Zhao Shulin's position as city lord and let him start over as a grassroots soldier.

Zhao Shulin looked bitter and turned to look at the chief guard. He was about to teach the chief guard a lesson, but the chief guard was not afraid at all.

"I've been fired now, so why should I be afraid of you?" The chief guard said coldly, "I used to be afraid of you scolding me and having my salary deducted. What should I be afraid of now?"

Zhao Shulin was speechless for a moment. Yes, he really couldn't do anything to him now.

The chief guard sneered and turned away. Zhao Shulin had no choice but to accept the reality. When he was about to leave, Shui Qingli spoke up: "Everyone present today must be punished."

The yellow-haired man and several others were terrified when they heard this. Zhao Shulin smiled bitterly and said, "I have been dismissed from my post now. Do I still have the right to arrest them?"

"You do. Once you catch them, your rights will end. This is the last thing you do." Shui Qingli said calmly.

Zhao Shulin nodded. He had to obey. After all, the king held the power of life and death, and he might be useful in the future.

He decided to enjoy this last bit of power a little longer, so he ordered his soldiers: "Catch them!"

The soldiers acted quickly and took the men away. They knew that begging for mercy was useless and could only surrender.

Shui Qingli said to Zhao Shulin, "You must let me see the results. Take a video and send it to me. Of course, I will also arrange a new city lord immediately."

Zhao Shulin quickly agreed: "Don't worry, my lord. I will definitely stand guard for the last time."

"Very good, I am satisfied with your attitude. As long as you perform well, you will have the opportunity to be reinstated in the future, and even do better." Shui Qingli's words cheered up Zhao Shulin.

Isn't this a hint? Great! He also knew that the king was reasonable. It was all those guys' fault. He couldn't blame it all on himself.

After everyone left, the store returned to peace. The boss hurried over to Shui Qingli and saluted: "Please forgive me, my lord. I was blind and didn't know you were coming."

"Ignorance is not a crime. Just go about your business." Shui Qingli waved his hand.

The boss nodded and left. Zhang Beixing was a little unhappy: "I came out to have fun, but I encountered something like this."

Shui Qingli knew that he was worried about her, so she consoled him, "Sometimes, it's nice to have some spice in life."

Zhang Beixing smiled and said, "You are quite open-minded."

"What if you don't want to be unhappy? You have to adjust your life yourself," said Shui Qingli.

After dinner, they continued to play. It was not until dusk that Shui Qingli said with a reluctant heart: "Let's go back."

Zhang Beixing was a little surprised: "The time hasn't come yet, why did you suddenly change your mind?"

"I can't always be immersed in happiness, I have to face reality. Tomorrow, I will start a new life," said Shui Qingli.

Zhang Beixing nodded: "You are right, let's go back."

Although Shui Qingli felt a little disappointed, she still hoped that Zhang Beixing could persuade her to continue playing. But Zhang Beixing didn't say anything, so she could only accept it helplessly.

On the way back, Shui Qingli was not very happy. She told Shui Lili: "Tell the kitchen that Zhang Beixing and I are leaving, and prepare enough food."

"Miss, why are you back so early? I thought you would come back late at night or tomorrow!" Shui Lili said in surprise.

"I had some personal matters to take care of, so I came back early. Please notify the kitchen immediately." Shui Qingli said.

Shui Lili agreed and told Wu Jinhua the news. Wu Jinhua smiled and said, "Shui Qingli also understands that all good things must come to an end, so you should return to your normal life as soon as possible."

"Yes, Sister Wu Jinhua, you are right." Shui Qingli said.

But Wu Jinhua was dissatisfied with her address: "Why are you suddenly calling me sister?"

"Because you are older than me, wouldn't it be more polite to call you sister?" Shui Qingli said.

Wu Jinhua asked unconvincedly: "Why do you say I am older than you?"

Shui Lili really couldn't answer this question. After all, she had always assumed that the other person was older.

But she actually didn't know how old the other person was.

So, Wu Jinhua unwillingly told her own date of birth and also asked about Shui Lili's.

Shui Lili laughed when she heard that.

"See, you are older than me."

She also told her date of birth.

Afraid that the other party would not believe me, I even took out my ID card.

Wu Jinhua sighed helplessly and said that she seemed to be really old.

"Okay, what are you talking about."

Not long after, the food was served, and Shui Qingli and Zhang Beixing just walked in. This made Wu Jinhua smile.

"You two are really punctual. Did you come according to the watch?"

"It's just a coincidence. Let's eat quickly." Shui Qingli said quickly.

While eating, the three people clearly felt that Shui Qingli was a little sad, but she was trying hard to restrain herself.

After dinner, Shui Qingli went back to her room, changed her clothes, and then went out.

Shui Lili quickly asked: "Miss, where are you going?"

Shui Qingli said he had to go take care of some personal matters and told Shui Lili not to follow him.

"Miss, is it dangerous for you to go out alone?"

"How is that possible? Don't you know? I have a team of bodyguards following me now, and I'm going to take them with me."

Shui Lili thought, even if that's the case, what is the secret? Why haven't you told me yet?

She knew that he was now the king and had authority, so she couldn't ask any more questions.

Wu Jinhua quickly asked Zhang Beixing what was going on and where she was going.

"Your questions are all nonsense. How would I know where she went?"

"Didn't she tell you when you were playing during the day?"

"No, I just said I was a little tired tonight and had some things to deal with."

But Zhang Beixing also realized that there might be something going on here.

But he thought, no matter what, it shouldn't be a bad thing.

Shui Qingli quickly took a taxi and met the person he had contacted.

Two hours later, she returned to the palace.

Shui Lili asked.

"Miss, what on earth did you go do?"

Shui Qingli glared at her.

"Lili, although we are like sisters, you have to know that from tomorrow on, I will become the king after all."

"Miss, I understand. You have to be dignified. I can't ask you casually, right?"

Shui Qingli nodded.

"That's true. If there's something I need you to know, I'll tell you. But if I don't tell you, don't ask around."

"okay, I get it."

Shui Lili was a little unhappy. She always felt that her relationship with the young lady seemed to have changed.

But she knew that this day would come sooner or later.

Starting tomorrow, she must uphold the lady's dignity.

Shui Qingli patted her buttocks gently.

"But normally it's not a big deal. I'll still tell you everything. We have a good relationship in private, so don't worry."

After hearing this, Shui Lili felt relieved.

Shui Qingli took off his coat.

In one of her coat pockets was a pill.

Tonight, she and the trader were going to get this thing.

Tomorrow, she would have to put this pill to good use.

Zhang Beixing also knew the news of her return.

Zhang Beixing came and knocked on the door immediately.

Shui Lili opened the door.

Zhang Beixing looked at Shui Qingli and said that he felt relieved to see her return safely.

Shui Qingli was very happy. It turned out that Zhang Beixing cared about her so much.

But she also understood that the other person only cared about her like a friend, not like a boyfriend or girlfriend.

"Don't worry, it's okay. Thank you so much."

She also said that she now has some bodyguards who are very dedicated.

But she was very worried that Zhang Beixing would ask her what she was going to do tonight.

She hasn't figured out how to lie yet!
However, Zhang Beixing did not ask, but told her to have a good rest.

Next, Shui Qingli immediately called the relevant staff.

The main question is whether everything is ready for the succession to the throne tomorrow?
The staff said everything is ready and we are just waiting for tomorrow.

But there is still a problem. Shui Qingli has to give a speech and the speech is ready. I don’t know whether Shui Qingli agrees.

Shui Qingli said that there was no need to prepare for this, and that he could just perform on the spot when the time came, and he would guarantee that he would not embarrass Lin Guo.

Shui Lili thought, I thought the young lady was focusing on tomorrow's affairs tonight, but it seems that is not the case.

So what on earth did she do?
Forget it, why am I so curious?

As long as the young lady comes back safely, this is more important than anything else.

And tonight, Wu Jinhua was particularly happy because she could go back after attending the coronation ceremony.

The next morning, Shui Qingli came to the kitchen early.

Shui Lili was very surprised to see her get up so early, and asked hurriedly: "Miss, why are you in the kitchen?"

“I’m going to cook a dish.”

"What? Miss, today is your coronation ceremony. How can you cook for yourself? Shouldn't you be in the office to prepare now?"

Shui Qingli said with a smile: "I made this dish specially for Zhang Beixing, you are not qualified to eat it."

She mentioned that Zhang Beixing was leaving again today.

So she wanted to cook a meal for him herself.

"Miss, he didn't say he would leave today. Maybe he would leave in two days."

"But no matter what, I have to cook this meal for him myself."

After a while, when Zhang Beixing got up, Shui Lili told him about this.

"This is a gift from my young lady. You must cherish it." Zhang Beixing was stunned after hearing this.

Soon, Shui Qingli personally brought the mushroom soup and placed it on the table.

Wu Jinhua said: "Zhang Beixing, you are so lucky."

Suddenly, Shui Qingli received a call. Because the day was busy, the etiquette department wanted her to try on the dress quickly.

"Don't worry, doesn't it start at 10 o'clock? Why are you calling so early?"

"Lord, you should try it on. What if it doesn't fit?"

"Don't worry, it will definitely be suitable."

In addition, according to normal procedures, foreign guests will not be allowed to enter until nine o'clock.

What is she doing so early?

She wanted to see Zhang Beixing drink the soup with her own eyes.

Wu Jinhua said that she also liked this soup, so couldn’t she drink it?
"No, you should know that I have a special status. Even if the soup I make tastes ordinary, it is still more precious than the soup of ordinary people. Since I said that it is for Zhang Beixing alone, no one else is qualified to drink it."

She said that even if Zhang Beixing couldn't finish the drink, she would rather pour it into the trash can and would never give it to anyone else.

Zhang Beixing smiled.

"Is it necessary to be so serious?"

"Of course it's necessary, drink it quickly." (End of this chapter)
