Chapter 525 Kawashima Masaaki
Noticing Xia Zhizhi's gaze, she nodded slightly towards her.
Xia Zhizhi sneered, then waved at her: "You, come here."
The woman walked up to Xia Zhizhi with a respectful smile on her face, then bowed and saluted: "Your Excellency, what can I do for you?"
Xia Zhizhi asked her, "What's your name?"
The woman remained respectful: "My name is Kawashima Masaaki."
Xia Zhizhi plucked a branch from the cypress potted plant nearby, and then used the branch to lift Kawashima Masaaki's chin: "Is it from Kawashima Hayano's family?"
Please forgive Xia Zhizhi's ignorance. In this ethnic group, she only knew two people with the surname Kawashima, the famous Yoshiko Kawashima and her godfather. These two people can be considered as being from the same family, both being loyal lackeys of the Japanese emperor.
Kawashima Masaaki responded: "Yes, he is my grandfather."
She is indeed a child of the Kawashima Hayami family, and she upholds the fine traditions of her family. She is also loyal to the Japanese royal family.
As he spoke, Kawashima Masaaki fixed his eyes on the branch.
This is the Queen's favorite potted plant. She has been raising it for decades and takes great care of it. Xia Zhizhi reached out and plucked a big one.
Xia Zhizhi didn't care how Kawashima Masaaki looked at her.
He tapped Kawashima Masaaki's face with a branch and said, "We have no hatred in the past and no grudge in the present, why do you hate me so much?"
Of course there was a grudge, but it was Xia Zhizhi who unilaterally held a grudge against them.
Just saying you can't say that.
"God has made you worry too much. You are the distinguished guest of the Emperor, how dare I be disrespectful to you." Kawashima Masaaki still had a respectful look on his face, with his head lowered and his eyes downcast.
"Oh, it's that you don't dare, not that you don't want to, right?" Xia Zhizhi folded her arms and looked at her with interest.
Seeing that she was not going to give in, Kawashima Masaaki had no choice but to stop talking to avoid saying something wrong.
As a descendant of the Kawashima family, Masaaki Kawashima is very loyal to the royal family, although he has opinions about Xia Zhizhi in his heart.
But she didn't want to cause any bad consequences because of her personal emotions, and then have the royal family to clean up the mess for her.
"Let me guess why you have ill intentions towards me." Xia Zhizhi was not so easily fooled.
Occasionally, she would not care much about other people's subtle malicious intentions. If she didn't care, she wouldn't bring it up. But if she did bring it up, she would definitely tease them.
Xia Zhizhi paced around Kawashima Masaaki and said, "This is the first time we met today. There is no such thing as old grudges. But I don't think you are the kind of person who would be jealous of me because I am prettier than you."
At this point, Xia Zhizhi proudly lifted her hair and said, "After all, I am so good-looking. The gap between us is too big. You will definitely feel embarrassed when you see me for the first time. You will only feel ashamed and will not be embarrassed to be jealous of me."
"In that case, then it must be because of what I did today that made you unhappy."
Xia Zhizhi spread her hands and said, "What can I, an innocent, kind and lovely ordinary church member, do? I didn't do anything. It's just that your queen lost her mind and set her sights on me, which caused the wrath of the gods."
Kawashima Masaaki's clasped hands, which were originally hanging in front of him, tightened slightly.
Xia Zhizhi concluded: "So you are resenting me and think that I caused great losses to the royal family. But have you ever thought that it was clearly your queen who lost her mind and the things were not given to me? But you are unwilling to resent your queen, and you dare not resent the messenger of God, so you can only transfer your hatred to me."
Xia Zhizhi patted her shoulder, walked to her side, and whispered in her ear: "Actually, you are right. I deliberately made the gods hate your royal family. I know that your crown prince has been childless for many years, and the queen must be anxious, so I dressed so gorgeously to attract their attention. Sure enough, they really noticed me. Unexpected!"
"You!" Kawashima Masaaki raised his head and glared at her hatefully.
Xia Zhizhi didn't let her finish her words, but just restored her normal voice: "I think your resentment is really unjustified. Your Emperor and I are both believers of the gods. We are all bathed in the grace of the gods and are as close as brothers to each other. Those things were contributed to the gods by your Emperor, which is a matter of supreme honor. How can you still be so fussy about such a small matter?"
Xia Zhizhi looked at Kawashima Masaaki with a smile on her face, but her eyes revealed real malice.
Kawashima Masaaki's face was extremely ugly. Her loyalty to the royal family made it impossible for her to do such a thing and still remain rational. She pointed at Xia Zhizhi angrily and shouted, "What on earth are you planning!"
The other people from the Imperial Palace who were standing by the corridor waiting to be served were shocked to see Kawashima Masaaki being so rude, and they hurried forward to smooth things over: "Yazhang, you must be tired and confused, are you feeling unwell? Why are you talking nonsense?"
Then he apologized to Xia Zhizhi: "Your Excellency, please forgive her for her impoliteness. This was not her intention. She was so confused that she said such nonsense."
Xia Zhizhi was quite generous, waving her hands and saying, "In that case, go down and have a rest. It doesn't matter if you offend me, but it would be bad if you make Helen unhappy."
Seeing that Xia Zhizhi was so easy to talk to, several people dragged Kawashima Masaaki away.
Before Kawashima Masaaki left, Xia Zhizhi gave her a meaningful and ill-intentioned look.
After the matter was done, Xia Zhizhi was very happy.
As soon as Hirohito and his wife left, she hurried into the house, shouting as she walked, "Your Excellency Helen, you have worked hard all day and must be tired. Let me help you rest."
As soon as the door was closed, Xia Zhizhi fell on the tatami. Ah Ju took off her shoes and dragged over a large box and placed it next to Xia Zhizhi.
Xia Zhizhi rubbed her hands, opened the box, and was dazzled by the bright yellow metal.
She picked up a piece, weighed it in her hand, tossed it, and said to Ah Ju: "Ah Ju, I actually think I am the girl of destiny, Feng Aotian is the God, the heroine of the cool novel, I can do anything I want, it's great!"
Ah Ju patted her leg and agreed, "Why not?"
"By the way." Xia Zhizhi told Ah Ju about Kawashima Masaaki: "You should pay a little attention to this person. She looks like a villain. I think she is going to cause trouble."
Hirohito and his wife were both blind and deaf and had no idea what they were doing outside. But Ah Ju was different. She had heard it a long time ago, and when Xia Zhizhi explained it, she nodded obediently to show that she understood.
Xia Zhizhi had a great harvest in the island country. There were too many new members. The early members of the cult that came with Ah Ju were all busy helping to spread the doctrine.
Except for going out for a walk at the beginning, she became lazy later on, hiding in the house every day and not going out, using her mental power to probe into the space to count her own inventory.
