Her Highness Doesn’t Want to Work Hard Anymore

After school.

The younger brothers excitedly ran to look for Li Xun.

"Boss, today I brought a Ju ball, shall we go to Cuju together later?"

Li Xun did not go to Cuju for a while, so he nodded in agreement.

He took two steps, when a timid voice suddenly sounded behind him.

"That, my son..."

Li Xun looked back and saw Ke Lang.

Ke Lang felt uneasy when he saw him, but he still bite the bullet and continued.

"Thank you for helping me."

Li Xun raised his eyebrows: "Do you want to come to Cuju together? We happen to be short of people."

There are usually twelve people in Cuju, and there are six people in each of the two teams. There are only five people on their side, and there is just one person short.

The other party's invitation came too suddenly, Ke Lang couldn't help being taken aback.

He said awkwardly: "But I don't know how to play Cuju."

The younger brothers behind Li Xun immediately surrounded Ke Lang, holding Ke Lang from left to right, and said with a smile.

"Cuju is very simple, it's just kicking a ball back and forth, you can learn it by just learning, let's go, let's play together."

Ke Lang couldn't stand the hospitality of the other party, so he half pushed and followed them away.

A group of people walked out of Taixue and were about to get into the carriage, but they were stopped by someone.

"The Prince Regent, please stay!"

Li Xun followed the prestige and saw a eunuch.

Behind the eunuch was a group of Habayashi guards, all of whom seemed to be from the palace.

At this time, it was the rush hour after school, and people kept coming and going at the gate of Taixue. Many people noticed this scene and looked towards the eunuch one after another.

The eunuch stepped forward to pay respects: "This servant pays homage to the Prince Regent's son. This servant is from Biquan Palace. I have come to receive the son into the palace for questioning at the order of the Empress Dowager."

After speaking, he took out a token from his pocket.

That is a token representing the identity of the Queen Mother.

Seeing the token is like seeing the Queen Mother coming.

Everyone knelt down and saluted towards the token.

After the eunuch put away the tokens, everyone stood up.

Li Xun asked, "Why does the Empress Dowager want to see me?"

"This servant doesn't know, please get in the car."

The eunuch turned sideways and made a gesture of invitation.

Not far behind him, a large carriage was parked.

Li Xun raised his eyebrows: "What if I don't go?"

The eunuch smiled apologetically and said, "This is the imperial edict of the empress dowager, and I hope the son will not disobey the edict."

After speaking, those Habayashi guards stepped forward and surrounded Li Xun.

Looking at this posture, you can tell that the visitor is not good.

Li Ji arranged two personal guards for Li Xun. Usually, the two personal guards were hidden in the dark and would not show their figures.

Seeing Xiao Shizi surrounded by people at this time, the two personal guards immediately appeared, drew their swords and stood in front of Xiao Shizi.

Have Ke Lang and those younger brothers ever seen such a battle? They were all terrified.

But none of them backed down, they still stood with Li Xun.

Li Xun looked around.

Many people have gathered nearby.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, if he dared to disobey Yi's decree, the Queen Mother would have even more reason to punish him when he turned around.

Now that there are so many pairs of eyes watching, once something happens to him after he enters the palace, everyone in the world will know that the Queen Mother has nothing to do with it.

And the other side has a large number of people, obviously they came prepared.

Head-to-head is not a wise move.

Li Xun asked one of his personal guards to follow him, while the other guard went back to report the letter.

Seeing that Li Xun was really going to get in the car, Ke Lang couldn't help asking.

"Are you okay?"

Li Xun waved his hands without looking back: "Don't worry, nothing will happen."

As long as his father didn't fall down for a day, no one in the court would dare to do anything to him blatantly.

Under the worried gaze of Ke Lang and his younger brothers, Li Xun easily jumped into the carriage with one hand on the shaft.

The carriage drove out towards the direction of the imperial palace, followed by a pair of Habayashi guards on horseback.

Just as they passed a crossroad, a group of masked assassins rushed out from both sides!

The faces of the Habayashi guards changed drastically, and they all drew out their swords and stepped forward to fight.

The people were all frightened by this sudden change, screaming and fleeing in panic.

...

The pomelo tree in the yard hangs a lot of fruit.

Hua Manman looked greedy, so he asked someone to pick some grapefruit, and prepared to make grapefruit candy.

Knowing that she was going to make something delicious again, Feihe rushed to the kitchen and waited.

Hua Manman peeled the grapefruits one by one. She put the pulp aside, washed and peeled the peel, threw it into the pot, added water to boil for a while, and then took it out and soaked it in cold water.

Taking advantage of the waiting time, Hua Manman tasted some grapefruit meat, which was a bit sour.

She frowned and put down the grapefruit meat.

Immortal Feihe said: "Pindao also ate the pomelo meat from this yard before, it was not good."

So now even if he saw that the grapefruit tree was full of fruits, he would not reach out to pick one.

Hua Manman said that she has a way.

She loosened the pomelo pulp, took some soaked pomelo peel and cut it into shreds, put the pulp and peel in the pot together, added rock sugar and water and boiled slowly.

When the water is gradually dried up and the oily skin turns golden and transparent, it is ready to be cooked!

Take it out, let it cool, and mix in a generous amount of honey.

Stir them well with a spoon.

Master Feihe asked curiously: "What are you doing?"

"Honey citron tea."

Hua Manman scooped up a spoonful of honey citron tea with a spoon, put it in a cup, mixed it with warm water, stirred it evenly, and pushed it in front of Master Feihe, beckoning him to try it.

Master Feihe picked it up and tasted it, his eyes narrowed immediately.

The sourness of grapefruit has been neutralized by the sweetness of honey, but there is no lack of fragrance of grapefruit in the sweetness.

Sweet but not greasy, delicious!

Hua Manman also made a cup of grapefruit tea for herself, and she put the remaining honey grapefruit tea into a clay pot and sealed it properly.

She squeezed the water from the soaked pomelo peel, added sugar and boiled it.

After all the sugar has melted into the grapefruit peels, Hua Manman takes them out with a spatula and spreads them out to cool.

Master Feihe asked curiously while drinking the sweet honey citron tea.

"What is this delicious?"

Hua Manman: "This is grapefruit candy, but you can't eat it right now, let it dry for a while."

At this time Gao Shan hurried in.

"Just now the personal guard came back to report that the son was taken away by someone sent by the Queen Mother."

Hua Manman immediately put down the work at hand, frowned and asked.

"Did you say what it was for?"

Gao Shan shook his head: "I didn't say it, but judging from the other party's posture, it shouldn't be a good thing."

Hua Manman put down his sleeves, strode out, and ordered.

"I'm going to see the queen mother right now, and you send someone to inform the prince immediately."

"Here!"

Hua Manman puts on men's clothing.

She thought the carriage was too slow, so she directly asked Gao Shan for a fast horse.

She rode her horse and ran towards the direction of the palace.

At this time the sun had set, the sky was dark, and the moon quietly climbed up the branches.

When she was passing an intersection, she was stopped by the government.

"The road ahead is closed, please take a detour."
