She Doesn’t Want To Work Hard Anymore

  Chapter 441 Caught off guard

  However, before Li Ji finished embroidering the word "王", he received a call from the emperor.

  He had to put down his needlework and got up to change his clothes.

  Flower crooked on the couch, playing with the little tiger puppet in his hand, muttering softly.

   "Why is the saint calling you into the palace at this time? The day outside is almost dark, this will not delay people's dinner at home."

  Li Ji looked at the mirror to tidy up his clothes, and said.

   "You eat first, don't wait for me, I will be back when I finish my business."

  Li Ji knew why the emperor suddenly summoned him.

   is nothing more than Lingnanping chaos.

  At the beginning, King Dongyang fled from Shangjing in a hurry and hurriedly hid in Lingnan. Whether it was morality or strength, he did not have the upper hand. It stands to reason that the court wanted to take him easily.

  However, half a year has passed, and the generals sent by the emperor to quell the chaos have happened one after another.

  Not only did King Dongyang not die, but he made him a firm foothold in Lingnan, and there was a faint tendency to contend with the court for a long time.

  If the King of Dongyang is really allowed to succeed, the Great Zhou River will be divided into two, not only will the world be in chaos, but the emperor’s fame will be gone.

  Now King Dongyang has become the emperor’s confidant.

  The emperor wanted to get rid of this scourge as soon as possible, so he could only use the sharpest knife.

  And Li Ji is the sharpest knife.

  Even if the emperor didn’t want to use him, now it’s time to have to use him.

  After Li Ji left, he spent a lot of time bored and slept on the bed with the little tiger in his arms.

  When she woke up, the sky outside was completely dark.

  Siyun helped her sit up and reminded.

   "The kitchen is ready for dinner."

  Hua Manman yawned: "The prince hasn't come back yet?"

  Nodded like a cloud: "Yes."

  Hua Manman wanted to wait for King Zhao to come back for a meal, but couldn't hold back the groaning in her belly. She was afraid of the baby in her belly hungry, so she got up and went to eat some food.

  Siyun and Qinghuan wait for her to wash and change clothes.

  Because she slept at night, she is not sleepy now, pulling Qinghuan and Siyun to play cards together.

  She was playing cards while waiting for King Zhao to return.

  Li Ji returned to the palace very late.

  Hearing the movement outside, Hua Manman immediately threw away his cards and stood up under the help of Qinghuan and Siyun.

  The door was pushed open, Li Ji strode in, and the cold wind came in with him.

  He quickly closed the door with his backhand, isolating the cold wind, ice and snow.

  He took off the heavy gray-white crane cloak and threw it to Qinghuan.

  Hua walked towards him quickly.

  "Have you eaten dinner yet?"

  Li Ji answered truthfully: "I ate some in the palace, but I didn’t get enough."

  Flower Man hurried to get people to prepare supper.

  Li Ji put his hands on the brazier to bake, and when the bake was warm, he went to hold the long hand.

  He led Man Man and sat on the couch.

   "Why haven't you slept so late?"

  Hua Manman hummed: "Of course I am waiting for you."

   Li Ji ironed the post in his heart, curling his lips and chuckles: “Don’t be so stupid in the future. If I don’t come back, you will sleep with you. Leave me alone, I won’t treat myself badly.”

  Hua Manman: "It's okay. Anyway, I've slept full before. I'm not sleepy at the moment. By the way, it's okay to wait for you."

  Li Ji: "..."

  The smile gradually disappeared.

  It turned out that he was just incidental.

  The supper was served soon. It was a big bowl of hot chicken noodles with two side dishes.

  Hua Manman put her cheek in one hand, watching the man sitting across the table eating noodles.

  Wait until he had almost eaten, Hua Manman only asked.

   "The imperial kitchen in the palace is so good, how come you are not full?"

  Li Ji put down his chopsticks: "I was eating dinner with the saint. The saint was still sick, and he was depressed, and his appetite was very poor, so I stopped chopsticks after a few mouthfuls."

  The flowers are so long, and the emperor stopped eating. How could Li Ji, a courtier, continue to eat? Naturally, you have to put down your chopsticks.

  Li Ji took the tea cup to rinse his mouth, wiped his mouth with silk paw, and said solemnly.

   "I have something to tell you."

   Seeing him suddenly become serious, Hua Manman also put down his arms and sat up straight.

"what's up?"

  Li Ji took out a bronzing memo from his sleeve, and said in a deep voice: "This is the decree of the saint just now. He ordered me to go to Lingnan to take over the quelling of the chaos."

  He threw the memo onto the table.

  The random action, as if what he threw out was not the imperial decree, but the cheap script that he bought with ten cents in the bookstore.

  Hua Manman picked up the memorial and looked at it.

In   , there are many words written eloquently, most of which are praising the king Zhao for how brave and loyal to the king and patriot, until the last mention of the peaceful chaos in the south.

  The news came too suddenly.

  Hua Manman was a little caught off guard.

  She wanted to ask Li Ji, can she not leave?

It is not a trivial matter to calm the chaos. If Li Ji went to Lingnan, it would take a year or a half to return.

  In that case, she can only enter the delivery room alone.

  She was scared.

  But the imperial decree has been laid down.

  If Li Ji does not go, he will resist the decree.

  After a while, Hua Manman spoke and asked dryly.

"when are we leaving?"

  Li Ji looked at her fixedly, and whispered: "I don't want to go."

  The flowers were stunned.

  Li Ji: "I don't want to be separated from you."

  It's not just long-term fear, he is more scared than her.

  He was afraid that there would be an accident when she gave birth, and he was afraid that something would happen to her.

  He wants to be by her side and witness the birth of the child with her.

   Hua Manman murmured: "But the imperial decree has been down..."

   Li Ji was cruel: "I can pretend to accidentally break my leg while riding a horse."

  At that time, even if the emperor made an order, he could not force a disabled man to lead the war.

  Hua Manman was taken aback and hurriedly dissuaded her.

   "Don't mess around! I don't want to spend my life with a disabled person."

  Li Ji's eyes gradually turned resentful as she watched her.

  He even broke his leg in order to stay with her.

  But she is better.

  She even dared to dislike him!

  Flower Manman: "Since the saints have already made their decree, then you go, and when you return from victory, I will take the baby to catch the wind for you."

  Not to mention how unworthy self-harm is.

  Even if Li Ji was truly disabled, he might not be able to hide it from the emperor.

  With the emperor's suspicious temperament, how much suspicion he would have to give birth to.

  Li Ji is still very unhappy.

   "If I leave, I won't be able to accompany you to give birth, I don't worry."

Hua Manman: "There is nothing to worry about. I am pregnant with this baby very stable. The wife has been found for a long time, and the real person Feihe has always been there. Then my mother will come to help, and everything will be ready. There won't be any problems."

  What she said was not only to comfort Li Ji, but also to comfort herself.

  Li Ji was silent.

  Hua Manman began to draw him a flatbread.

  "When you come back from the victory this time, the saint will definitely reward you again, and then you will let the saint reward you with a fief.

  In the future, our family of three will live in a fief and will no longer mix up the right and wrong of Shangjing, okay? "

  Li Jiming knew that the other party was fooling herself.

  But he was still moved by the future she described.

  Family of three find a remote place, close the door and spend their little days.

  Just thinking about it makes me feel happy.

  Li Ji responded in a low voice: "Okay."
