She Doesn’t Want To Work Hard Anymore

   Chapter 703

  Princess Ningyang then asked about another thing.

   "Now that the fighting has stopped, it's time to reopen the gates?"

  It is not a problem to keep the city gate blocked, and it is easy to cause the people to panic.

  Li Ji has other plans for this, and casually replied: "Wait."

  Now Aqi is still hiding in the city. Once the gate is reopened, Aqi will have the opportunity to get out of the city.

  So Li Ji had to grab Aqi out before reopening the city gate.

  Princess Ningyang asked again: "Where is Xun'er? When are you going to take him back?"

  Li Ji doesn’t really want to get the dog's egg back soon, because once the dog's egg comes back, he and Manman will not be able to live in the two-person world. The kid will definitely try his best to grab Manman’s attention, which is very annoying!

  But you can't leave the dog eggs outside the city, after all, Manman will worry about it.

  Li Ji responded unwillingly.

   "I'll have someone pick him up later."

  Princess Ningyang looked at him helplessly: "Xun'er is your only son, you should treat him better."

  Li Ji asked back: "Am I treating him badly?"

  Princess Ningyang didn't mean to be honest.

"You have to ask yourself, look at the way you are now. When you mention Xun'er, it's not like talking about your son, but more like talking about your rival in love. The emotions of impatientness are all written on your face. , I don’t want to pretend that I can’t see it.”

   Li Ji thought, in some respects, dog eggs are more annoying than rivals.

  He responded perfunctorily: "Really?"

  Princess Ningyang chatted with him a few more words, and then she got up and said goodbye.

  Li Ji asked symbolically: "Will grandma stay here and have lunch before leaving?"

  Princess Ningyang looked at him with a smile.

   "Not bad, you still know how to keep someone for dinner?"

  She knew that this was a polite remark, but for Li Ji, who always likes to do her own way, it is very rare to take the initiative to say such a polite remark.

  Li Ji is rarely uncomfortable.

  He concealed a light cough: "You helped me a lot before, so I have to thank you."

  Princess Ningyang smiled more kindly.

   "Your grandmother and I were once friends in my boudoir, and your biological father was also the one I grew up watching. Now they are gone. I should take more care of you instead of them."

  She paused, and couldn't help but persuade a few more words.

"It's good for you to be like this now, and you will be the same in the future. Don't speak too aggressively. It doesn't matter if you are just polite. I don't want you to be slick and sophisticated, I just want you to watch it more. Look at the good side of this world and stop being as extreme as before."

  Li Ji answered earnestly: "I understand."

  Seeing that he could hear what he said, Princess Ningyang was very pleased.

  She stood up with the help of the maid.

  "I won’t eat any more meals. I was busy all night and I looked very tired and wanted to go back and take a good rest."

  Speaking of this, she couldn't help but smile wryly.

   "I'm getting old, my body is not as big as before, thinking that when I was your age, it would be fine if I didn't sleep all night."

Li Ji looked at her gray hair and her eyes that were a little red because of staying up all night, thinking that she would have to work hard for her own affairs when she was too old, so she almost paid her life for this, and felt guilty in her heart. Besides, I was very moved.

  Before, he always thought paranoidly that everyone in the world is indifferent, and even close relatives are not worthy of trust.

  At this time, he realized that he was blinded by hatred, so he could not see that the people around him treated him well.

  He said nothing, and took the initiative to support the arm of Princess Ningyang.

  Princess Ningyang saw this, she was startled at first, and then laughed again.

  Li Ji helped her out of the Prince Regent’s mansion.

  Before getting into the car, Princess Ningyang talked about Mu Qing.

   Fortunately, the rescue was timely. Mu Qing's life was saved, but the residual poison in the body had not completely dissipated, and the body was still weak and needed to rest for a period of time.

   "I asked Mu Qing to take Mu Qing to the princess mansion, and temporarily let her stay with me to recuperate. When she recovers later, I will ask her where she wants to go."

  Princess Ningyang actually wanted to keep Mu Qing by her side, but she was afraid that Mu Qing was unwilling, so she had to look at Mu Qing's own wishes in the end.

  Li Ji nodded, indicating that he knew it.

  After sending away Princess Ningyang, Li Ji ordered someone to invite Li Liao over.

  He explained two things to Li Liao.

  "Choose a few people to pick up the dog eggs and go home. In addition, the order will be passed on. A reward will be offered to arrest the prince of the Xiliang Kingdom, Xiao Qi. Those who provide clues will reward you with a hundred taels of silver, and those who catch this person alive will reward you with a thousand taels of silver."

  Li Liao knew that the Xiao Qi he was talking about was Aqi, and immediately responded.

   "I will do it now."

  Because of Aqi's secret tricks last night, the Xuanjia Army and the Tianjingcheng defenders almost fought.

  If that battle is really fought, I don’t know how many people will die.

  Whenever he thinks of this, Li Liao gets itchy with hate, and must teach that kid a hard lesson!

  Manman fell asleep until noon.

  She opened her eyes and saw the man sitting silently beside the bed, she couldn't help but stunned.

  "How long have you been sitting here?"

  Li Ji: "It didn't take long."

  Hua Manman looked at him suspiciously: "Really?"

  She seriously suspects that the dog man has been sitting here staring at her for a long time.

  This is something he can do!

   Hearing her voice, Li Ji raised her eyebrows slightly: "Are you scolding me in your heart again?"

  Flower touched her nose and almost forgot that he has a mind-reading skill.

  She quickly changed the subject.

"I'm hungry."

  Li Ji did not hold her to blame for being a dog man in her heart, reached out her hand to help her up, and said: "I have asked the kitchen to prepare lunch. Are you going to eat here or go to the dining hall?"

  Hua Manman is authentic without hesitation.

"eat here."

  Li Ji knew that she was too lazy to move, and smiled silently: "Okay."

  Siyun put a low table on the bed, and she and Qinghuan filled the table with hot and fragrant meals.

  Because Manman's body is still relatively weak, the meals the kitchen prepares for her are relatively light and easier to overcome.

  Li Ji personally served Manman a bowl of chicken soup.

   "Drink some soup first."

  Flower took the bowl and drank deliciously.

  Because of the lowering of her head, her long hair slipped off her shoulders, which seemed a little in the way.

  Li Ji asked people to fetch a jade hairpin and pull up Manman’s hair personally.

  With well-defined fingers inserted through the long black hair, hold it a little bit to form a simple hair bun, and then gently insert the jade hairpin to fix the hair bun.

  The man lowered his eyes to look at Manman, and saw that she was still drinking soup seriously, a gentle smile filled his eyes.

  Sunlight fell on the two of them through the window, coating them with a light golden soft light.

  Looking from a distance, it seems as if two people are shining.

  Siyun and Qinghuan, who were standing by, could not help holding their breath when they saw this scene, for fear that they would disturb this beautiful scene.
