She Doesn’t Want To Work Hard Anymore

  Chapter 405 I like everything

  Hua Manman is really hungry and eats very hard.

  Siyun was originally a little worried that the princess would have no appetite due to pregnancy, but now it seems that she is worried about it, and the princess’s appetite is better!

  Li Ji kept picking up dishes for Manman.

   Seeing her eating with gusto, he felt more satisfied than he was full.

  Wait when Manman was almost eating, Li Ji just started to eat.

   sat down and watched him eat, and asked like a whim.

   "The prince hopes that my birth is a son or a daughter?"

  Li Ji replied without looking up: "Daughter."

  He hopes to have a daughter, who looks like a long, smart and cute daughter.

  Hua Manman wrinkled a small face: "Don't you like your son?"

  Li Ji took a sip of the soup: "It's okay."

  It is reluctant to listen to the tone.

  Hua Manman didn't expect him to be so disgusted with his son, so he couldn't help asking.

   "Why don't you like your son?"

  Li Ji answered the wrong question: "As long as you give birth, I like it."

  It's not that Li Ji doesn't like his son, he just doesn't want Manman to give birth to a son like him.

  His life is not good, everyone says he is a evil star, born with blood and light.

  If you have a son like him, how much would you suffer?

  It’s better to have a daughter.

  Daughter is as beautiful and smart as Manman, and someone hurts when she is young. How wonderful!

  The 60,000 reinforcements from Hadong County and Hanoi County traveled day and night, and finally arrived in Shangjing, only to be told that King Dongyang had run away, and the entire rebel army had been defeated.

  In other words, they ran for nothing.

  However, the emperor did not let them go back, but instead asked them to camp outside the city and rest temporarily.

  At this time, all the rebels in the palace have been captured.

  The emperor leaned on the soft couch, listening to the report from the people underneath.

  After a heart attack, he took medicine and an injection, but he didn't get better, his face looked extremely pale, his brows were always frowned, and he looked quite tired.

  Even so, he cannot rest.

  The losses caused by the rebellion still need to be counted, and the subsequent finishing work has to be arranged.

  Things happened one after another, so much that he had no time to rest.

  Someone came in to report.

   "King Dongyang and Xu Jiwu have already escaped from Shangjing. King Zhao went to pursue them. In the process, the concubine Xian was shot and the body was sent back to the palace for his Majesty's disposal."

The emperor was silent for a while before speaking slowly.

   "You won the title of a good concubine, demoted to a commoner, the remains were cremated, and the ashes were sent to the Ten Thousand Buddhas Temple."

   "Here."

  The emperor pressed his heart, his expression was very painful.

  Zuo Ji was very nervous: "Your Majesty, would you like to ask a doctor?"

The emperor took a deep breath, tried to suppress the pain, and said weakly.

"Need not."

  Zuo Ji: "Then you want to take a pill?"

  The emperor nods.

  Zuo Ji immediately ordered people to fetch the pills and waited for the emperor to take them.

  After taking the medicine, the emperor felt that the pain in his heart was slightly relieved, but his complexion was still very poor.

  Zuo Ji knew in his heart that the emperor was feeling uncomfortable for the death of Concubine Xian.

Concubine    has been in the palace for twenty years, and she has always been gentle and courteous. The emperor is very relieved of her and never thought that she would betray him one day.

  Now she is dead, on the way to escape.

  So many years of company have ended with such a tragic ending, no matter who it is, it is unacceptable.

  The emperor closed his eyes.

  He actually wanted to ask Concubine Xian, why should he betray him? Has he ever felt sorry for her?

  But now that everyone is dead, he can't even ask.

  The upset emotions in his heart kept accumulating, and he couldn't breathe.

   Zuo Ji observed his words and expressions, and asked cautiously.

  "Would you like to take a break?"

  The emperor opened his eyes and said that he did not use it.

  The queen mother and concubines in the palace are still waiting for him to appease, and the people outside the palace are also waiting for him to give an explanation.

  He hasn't rested yet.

  Zuo Ji had no choice but to bring someone a cup of strong tea, so that His Majesty could refresh his mind.

  Until the sky gradually dimmed, palace lanterns lit up in the palace.

  The work of the emperor has just come to an end.

  He asked the veterans to stay and have a meal together.

  After eating and drinking, everyone relaxed a little bit. They chatted while eating the fruits after the meal.

  Someone mentioned the four princes.

   "The Four Highnesses, regardless of their own safety, went to battle to kill the enemy, protect the common people, and personally opened the city gate to welcome the saint back to the city. The sincere heart is moving!"

  The emperor actually has no good feelings for the son of Li Ying.

  Not only because Li Ying’s biological mother was too humble, but also because Li Ying’s biological mother was not obedient to women, and she secretly communicated with other men behind her back.

  The emperor asked her who the adulterer was, but she refused to say it all. In the end, in order to protect the identity of the adulterer, she chose to commit suicide.

  Although she is dead, the fourth prince Li Ying is still alive.

As long as the emperor saw Li Ying, he would think of his mother, and he was very bored.

  For so many years, the emperor has always turned a blind eye to Li Ying.

  According to the emperor’s guess, if a small child lives alone in the palace, it is almost impossible to grow up.

  However, the facts exceeded the emperor’s prediction.

  Li Ying not only grew up, but also stepped forward during the rebellion and made great contributions.

  The mood of the emperor is extremely complicated.

  On the one hand, he is happy that he can have such a good son, and on the other hand, he feels irritable. Why is it just Li Ying?

  Of course, the veterans also knew that the emperor did not wait to see the four princes very much. After a few words of praise, the emperor did not answer, and they all changed the subject wittily and talked about other things.

  Dongyang King and Xu Jiwu fled, it seems they are preparing to flee to the southwest.

  An old minister stood up and said.

  "The southwestern area is mountainous and forested, and it is a place that is easy to defend and difficult to attack. If King Dongyang and Xu Jiwu have a firm foothold there, it will be difficult for us to catch them in the future."

  A few other veterans also agreed that King Dongyang and Xu Jiwu should not be let go, and they must be sent as soon as possible before they can gain a foothold, so that they can be wiped out forever!

The emperor naturally knew this truth.

  He asked: "Everyone, Aiqing thinks, who should lead the troops in the suppression of the chaos?"

  Several veterans expressed their opinions and mentioned the names of several generals one after another.

  I don't know if it is a coincidence or a tacit understanding, no one here mentioned Zhao Wang's name.

  The emperor finally withdrew his military power from Zhaowang's hands. Before the moment of last resort, he must not let Zhaowang have access to military power again.

  After some discussions, they finally decided on two candidates for military commanders.

  Just outside the city, there were still 60,000 troops stationed. They were asked to pull out the camp at dawn the next day, and the two generals led them to chase the rebels.

  Li Ji didn't have much reaction after learning about it.

  He was called into the palace by the emperor.

  In the palace, he happened to meet Li Ying, the fourth prince.

  Li Ying just glanced at him and planned to leave.

  Li Ji shouted to stop him.

  "His Royal Highness, this king has something to ask you."

  Li Ying had to stop, but she was quite surprised that King Zhao would take the initiative to talk to him.

   "Lord, please speak."

  Li Ji: “It’s like this. My princess is pregnant, and the child must be given a name when he is born. The king is currently worrying about what name should be given to the child? Can the Fourth Highness give me some advice?”

  Li Ying: "..."

  　 The end of the month is the end of the month, and the monthly pass will expire if you don’t use it!
