Her Highness Doesn’t Want to Work Hard Anymore

Chapter 421 I Don't Worry About You

The person sitting next door should be a young man, who may have had some wine, was very excited, and kept talking.

Li Ji thought it was too noisy here, and planned to change to another quieter place.

"Brother Wu, if he is going to be successful in the future, don't forget us friends!"

"It is said that King Zhao's martial arts are world-class, he has killed countless enemies, and he is praised like a god of war, but in my opinion, Brother Wu is not inferior to King Zhao!"

"That's right! In the future, when Brother Wu returns triumphantly, he will definitely be crowned king and marquis, even more glorious than King Zhao!"

"Come, come, let's all toast Brother Wu, wishing Brother Wu will go through like a bamboo shoot, and kill all the rebels!"

Unexpectedly, his name would be mentioned next door, so Li Ji couldn't help but stop.

Hua Manman is very curious about who is that man called Brother Wu? It can be compared with King Zhao unexpectedly.

Li Ji met her curious eyes and said casually.

"Brother Wu they are talking about should be Wu Shufeng. The saint just ordered him to lead the army to suppress the rebellion."

Hua Manman tried his best to search his memory, but he still couldn't find a person named Wu Shufeng.

Afraid of being heard by the people next door, she deliberately moved to King Zhao's side, leaned her upper body, and asked in a low voice.

"Is Wu Shufeng stronger than you?"

Following her example, Li Ji leaned his head towards her and replied in a very soft voice.

"It's just a bookworm with no strength to restrain a chicken. I only need one finger to kill him."

Hua Manman couldn't understand.

"Why did the saint send a nerd to lead the army to suppress the rebellion?"

Li Ji: "Probably because the saint thinks he is more reliable."

The more Hua Manman listened, the more confused she became.

Li Ji explained patiently.

"Wu Shufeng is innocent, and he is still a literati with no power to restrain himself.

Even if he has the military power, the sage does not have to worry that he will make trouble, so the sage can use him with confidence. "

Hua Manman was speechless: "But why did the scholar lead the army to fight? Isn't this reckless?!"

Li Ji pursed his lips and chuckled lightly, mockingly.

"They feel that the coach doesn't need to fight the enemy himself, he just needs to sit in the rear and command the whole army. A nerd can do it."

The group of people in the private room next door were still laughing.

Li Ji was in no mood to continue listening.

He got up and left with Man Man, intending to find another quiet place to stay.

When the two walked out of the teahouse, Hua Manman suddenly asked.

"Does the prince want to go to Lingnan?"

Li Ji denied it without thinking.

"In no mood."

Hua Manman: "Don't you want to lead the army to fight again?"

Li Ji: "Think."

Hua Manman: "Now is an opportunity. If you can be transferred to Lingnan by the saint, you can regain access to military power."

Li Ji helped her into the carriage.

After she sat down firmly, Li Ji just spoke.

"I can't worry about you."

In fact, he had long expected that the pacification of the chaos would not go smoothly, and he had thought about taking this opportunity to regain military power, but the news of Manman's sudden pregnancy disrupted his plan.

No matter how important military power is, it is not as important as Manman.

Now that Manman is pregnant, he just wants to stay by Manman's side, not going anywhere.

Hua Manman took Li Ji's arm, leaned towards him, and muttered softly.

"I'm afraid you will regret it in the future."

She remembered that in "Gongmou", King Zhao took the opportunity of suppressing the rebellion to take back the military power.

This laid the foundation for him to become the regent in the future.

Now if he misses the opportunity to go to Lingnan to quell the rebellion, it means that he will also miss the position of the regent.

Li Ji put his arm around her waist, his tone very casual.

"Nothing to regret."

At dawn the next day, Wu Shufeng took his luggage and servants and left Shangjing under the watchful eye of a group of relatives and friends, heading straight for Lingnan.

The restaurant was quickly decorated, and the shopkeeper, the staff, and the cook were all ready.

Li Ji originally named the restaurant Ji Man, but Man Man disliked it as a mouthful, and finally changed it to Lihua Snacks.

Li Ji personally inscribed the characters for Lihua Snacks.

After learning that King Zhao was going to open a restaurant, many people in Beijing paid close attention, even the emperor heard about it.

His Royal Highness Zhao Wang, who used to gallop on the battlefield and kill people without blinking an eye, has started selling snacks.

No matter how you look at it, this style of painting is wrong!

Out of curiosity, on the day the restaurant opened, the emperor disguised himself and took Hua Zhaorong out of the palace.

The two came to Lihua Snacks under the protection of the dark guards.

Before they entered the door, they smelled a strong fragrance.

Hua Qingqing followed the scent and saw a pot of spicy crayfish just brought out.

She can't take spicy food very well, but she still couldn't help swallowing.

It looks delicious.

The emperor was also a little moved.

Although he has eaten countless delicacies from mountains and seas, he has never eaten food such as crayfish and snails.

All the tables in the restaurant were filled with guests, the staff politely invited the emperor and Hua Zhaorong to the rest area next to them, and brought them tea, melon seeds and peanuts.

"You two, wait here. I will notify you when there are free seats."

It was the first time that the emperor had to wait in line for a meal.

He wasn't annoyed, on the contrary, he felt quite fresh.

Hua Qingqing wanted to peel melon seeds for the emperor, but was rejected by the prince.

The emperor smiled and said, "You don't have to pay so much attention when you're away from home, we just get along like ordinary couples."

Hua Qingqing blinked, her beautiful eyes seemed to be twinkling with stars.

She chewed the words "ordinary couple" lightly, and couldn't help but secretly elated.

Seeing this, the emperor could not help but hook his lips into a chuckle.

Hua Zhaorong really loves him very much, just hearing that she can be an ordinary couple with him, she can't hide her happiness.

It's so cute.

When there were empty seats, the emperor and Hua Qingqing finally tasted the crayfish and snails, which were even more delicious than expected.

The emperor sighed while peeling the shrimp.

"The taste of the shrimp meat is very good, but the process of peeling the shrimp is too unsightly."

Hua Qingqing hurriedly said: "Let my concubine help you peel it off."

The emperor smiled: "No need."

Although peeling shrimp is troublesome, it is not fun to do it occasionally.

After eating and drinking enough, the two strolled around the city again, and they returned to the palace in a carriage when the sun was setting.

The emperor leaned on the soft pillow and said with a smile.

"I heard that the Pear Blossom Restaurant was specially opened by King Zhao for Princess Zhao, and the food in the restaurant was also thought out by Princess Zhao."

Hua Qingqing smiled lightly, and said softly: "My concubine's younger sister has no other hobbies. She just likes to tinker with food on weekdays."

Emperor: "You haven't seen your sister for a long time, right? Do you want to find a chance to let her come into the palace to accompany you?"

Hua Qingqing was flattered: "Is it possible?"

The emperor smiled, his tone full of connivance.

"sure."

For the sake of her sincerity to him, he doesn't mind being more tolerant of her.

Hua Qingqing looked at him, the affection in her beautiful eyes was almost overflowing.

"Your Majesty is so kind to my concubine, it is my concubine's blessing to be able to marry Your Majesty."

The emperor stopped her slender waist, and she obediently leaned over, snuggling into his arms.

When she lowered her head, the affection in her eyes disappeared, leaving only a coldness.
