Her Highness Doesn’t Want to Work Hard Anymore

After Li Ji finished eating the chicken legs, he spoke calmly.

"Is there anything on this table that you don't like? Give it to me."

Hua Manman has never been picky about food and can eat anything.

Mostly because of her pregnancy, she has been a little bit against too greasy food recently.

So she put all the greasy dishes on the table into Li Ji's bowl.

Li Ji never refused to eat whatever he had.

Princess Rouwan looked at the two of them expressionlessly.

At this moment, no matter what she ate, she felt like she was eating dog food.

Just very upset!

After lunch, Princess Rouwan mercilessly issued an order to evict guests.

"I'll take a nap first, you guys go back."

Hua Manman was very reluctant: "King Zhao and I still want to stay and have dinner with you."

Princess Rouwan twitched the corners of her mouth: "No, I still prefer the feeling of eating alone, clean!"

She had had enough of these two sips, and she just wanted to get these two guys out of here.

Naturally, Li Ji was eager to take the princess home as soon as possible.

Without saying a word, he took Manman's hand and led her out.

Hua Manman walked and looked back at the same time.

"My lord, we will visit you again in two days!"

Princess Rouwan turned around mercilessly, as if she hadn't heard anything.

Waited out of the town government.

Hua Manman and Li Ji got into the carriage.

With no one else present at the moment, Li Ji could finally ask the question that was pressing in his heart.

"What did you do to make the Princess suddenly change her attitude towards me?"

Hua Manman smiled mysteriously: "Guess."

She wouldn't tell the dog man that in order to coax the princess to change her attitude, she used all the shameless tricks of pretending to be sick, pretending to be pitiful, and sympathizing.

Hearing her heartfelt voice, Li Ji reached out and pinched her cheek.

"Little rogue, there is a lantern festival in the city tonight, do you want to go and see it?"

Hua Manman said without hesitation: "Yes, yes!"

As the night falls, the lanterns light up one after another, converging into a bright river, which looks like a river of stars floating in the night from a distance.

Hua Manman took Li Ji's hand and walked on the brightly lit street.

There are endless crowds all around, and the full moon is bright and clear in the night sky.

Hua Manman noticed that a Kongming lantern was slowly rising in front of him, and immediately quickened his pace, pulling Li Ji and walking over.

It turned out that there was a restaurant holding a Kongming Lantern event.

As long as you enter the store for consumption, you can receive a Kongming lantern for free.

Hua Manman is very interested in this.

She dragged Li Ji into the shop for a meal, and then received a Kongming lantern from the shopkeeper.

The man said politely: "You can write your wish on the Kongming Lantern. When the Kongming Lantern rises to the sky, you can send your wish to God, and your wish will come true!"

Li Ji dismissed this.

It's just a way for merchants to fool people, so he won't be fooled.

Hua Manman picked up the brush and quickly wrote a line of words on the Kongming lantern——

I hope Manman and Aji can be together forever!

She also deliberately drew two small people holding hands beside her, representing her and Li Ji.

Hua Manman asked while appreciating his masterpiece.

"My wish should come true, right?"

Li Ji looked at the words and words on the lamp, his throat rolled, and he paused word by word.

"It will definitely come true."

The two lit candles and held the Kongming lantern, and when the lantern bulged little by little, the two let go at the same time, and the Kongming lantern carrying the wishes slowly rose into the sky, drifting farther and farther, and finally became a small dot in the night.

Hua Manman suddenly had an idea.

"In the future, when our child is born, let's name him Li Kongming!"

Li Ji raised a question mark on his forehead: "Why?"

Hua Manman took it for granted, "Because you're smart!"

Li Ji: "..."

Li Ji asked blankly: "Then why didn't you just name the child Li Congming?"

Hua Manman clapped his hands and suddenly said, "Yes, you can call Li Congming directly!"

Li Ji: "If we have a second child in the future, will we have to be called Li Jueding?"

Extremely smart, he sounds like a real brother.

Hua Manman thought about it for a moment, and finally rejected the proposal.

"The name Jueding sounds very bald. Let's say goodbye. After all, they are our own flesh and blood. Give them a way out."

The two chatted about inconsequential topics, and walked away holding hands.

In the tea house across the street, the window of the private room on the second floor was open, and Li Ying was standing by the window.

He was wearing a dark blue brocade robe, with a tall and straight figure, with one hand resting on the window sill, and his black eyes fixedly stared at Hua Manman who was gradually going away.

She seemed to be in a good mood, walking briskly, turning her head to look at the man walking beside her from time to time, wondering what she was talking about, she smiled with crooked brows, her eyes seemed to hold the entire starry sky, It's so bright that you can't take your eyes off it.

He just stared at her until her back completely merged into the sea of ​​people, and he couldn't see her anymore, then he gave up.

Turning around and returning to the table, the food and wine on the table had already cooled down.

Liang Yong wanted someone to remove the food and drink and serve a table of hot dishes instead.

But Li Ying waved his hand, expressing that there was no need.

It doesn't matter whether the food and drink are hot or cold.

Anyway, he has no appetite.

...

As soon as the Mid-Autumn Festival is over, the temperature is getting lower and lower every day.

Hua Manman suddenly started to have morning sickness.

Before, she only felt sick when she saw greasy food, but now she retches no matter what she sees.

I don't want to eat anything, and my appetite is very poor.

Li Ji was so anxious that he forced the cook to study new dishes in different ways every day. Seeing that the cook at home was about to be driven crazy by him, he finally realized his conscience and let the cook at home go, and began to extend his claws to the palace Royal chef.

He went to the emperor to borrow the royal cook.

It's just a small matter, the emperor agreed very readily.

As expected of an imperial chef, the imperial chef has a lot of experience and knowledge, and quickly developed dishes that are both delicious and not nauseating, and are also good for pregnant women.

At the same time, the triennial autumn festival finally began.

This time, Qiu Wei was co-hosted by the academician of the Imperial Academy and Li Ying, the king of Wuzhang.

The imperial examination is an important way for the court to select talents, and its importance is self-evident. The emperor put Li Ying in this position, which is not only the importance of Li Ying, but also the test of Li Ying.

Facts have proved that Li Ying's ability is indeed outstanding.

The three-month Qiuwei exam was organized by him in an orderly manner without any mistakes.

This satisfied the emperor and courtiers alike.

Every time after that, Li Ying could sit in on the court.

He will record what he overhears every day and analyze it according to his own ideas.

Occasionally, when the emperor had a whim, he would suddenly ask Li Ying a question.

The questions are generally about recent events in the DPRK and China.

Li Ying can answer fluently every time.

Even if his answers may not be perfect, they all have some merits.

This shows that he has seriously thought about it.

The emperor is more and more satisfied with him.

Regardless of his background, Li Ying is really a very good candidate for successor.
