Her Highness Doesn’t Want to Work Hard Anymore

Li Ji calmed down and explained.

"This king has no doubts. I just asked you because I was afraid that there might be a misunderstanding in this matter."

Hua Manman threw herself into his arms, weeping and talking.

"The concubine did speak a few words to His Highness the Crown Prince two days ago.

But that was because His Royal Highness insisted on stopping the concubine and refused to let the concubine go.

He is the prince, how dare I refuse?

The concubine could only deal with him cautiously, but unexpectedly...

Hey, you must not quarrel because of the concubine, everything is the fault of the concubine. "

Li Ji asked: "What could be wrong with you?"

Hua Manman: "The fault of my concubine is that she is too popular."

Li Ji: "..."

How does this make him cooperate with her performance?

Li Cheng actually regretted it after saying that sentence.

He still wanted to conquer Huamanman, but now that he has finished talking, how can he continue to attack Huamanman?

He shouldn't have been quick to talk just now.

But he was unwilling to let him succumb in front of King Zhao.

In the end, he could only find a reason and leave here hastily.

Lin Qingzhi has been waiting outside.

When she saw the prince coming out, she hurried to meet him.

"His Royal Highness, are you alright?"

Li Cheng was full of resentment and had nowhere to vent, so he punched hard on the pillar.

In the end, Zhu Zi was fine, but his hand hurt.

Lin Qingzhi was startled, and hurriedly grabbed his hand, feeling distressed.

"Your Highness, what are you doing? No matter how angry you are, you can't hurt yourself!"

Taking advantage of this pain, Li Cheng forced himself to calm down.

He knew he was impulsive this time.

The money has already been distributed, what he has to do is how to make himself occupy the most advantageous position in this matter, instead of rushing to quarrel with King Zhao.

Quarreling is the most time-wasting thing, and it doesn't matter whether you win or lose.

Li Cheng took a deep breath and said to Lin Qingzhi.

"You go and make some preparations, and later I will go out of the city with Gu to help out the porridge."

King Zhao can't have all the good reputation alone, and he, the prince, has to go to the people to show his favor.

Otherwise, when they return to Shangjing, the people in the world will only know King Zhao but not the Crown Prince.

Speaking of Hua Manman's side, after the prince left, she shrank back, wanting to leave King Zhao's arms.

However, Li Ji's hand was firmly on her waist, making it impossible for her to leave.

Hua Manman blinked and asked blankly.

"My lord, this is it?"

Li Ji looked down at her and asked with a half-smile.

"About the matter between you and the prince, shouldn't you give me an explanation?"

Hua Manman continued to pretend to be stupid: "Didn't I already explain it just now? What do you want me to explain?"

Li Ji stretched out his hand to twist a strand of her long hair, and said slowly.

"Before you only said that you had a chat with the prince, but you didn't say that the prince had that kind of meaning for you. You were deliberately hiding it from me, huh?"

Hua Manman said with a sneer.

"That's just my concubine's conjecture, and there is no actual evidence.

How can the concubine talk nonsense?

If the concubine's guess is wrong, how embarrassing it is, don't you think? "

Li Ji leaned closer to her, his eyes firmly fixed on her.

Like a beast locked on its prey.

"Are you afraid of embarrassment? Or do you think that the king will not trust you, so you don't want to tell the king about these things?"

Hua Manman said hastily.

"I'm really afraid of embarrassment, how could I not trust you?

You are the husband of the concubine, and the foundation of the concubine's life.

Even if I don't believe in the whole world, it's impossible not to believe in you. "

She sighed in her heart, she didn't expect King Zhao to be so sensitive, to ask the bottom of such a trivial matter.

If she had known this, she shouldn't have tried to save trouble, and should have explained the matter to him clearly.

Hearing her heartfelt voice, Li Ji narrowed his black eyes slightly.

"Forget it this time, if you encounter such a thing in the future, don't hide it from me."

Hua Manman nodded vigorously: "Yeah!"

Only then did Li Ji let go of his hand, Hua Manman quickly backed away from his side.

It looked very much like a little rabbit fleeing from the territory of the beast.

Li Ji couldn't help but curled up his lips and smiled.

"What are you running? You haven't finished checking your homework yet."

Hua Manman could only kneel and sit beside him obediently, waiting for King Zhao to continue to review the homework.

She really didn't expect that after she was married, she would have to relive the hard life of a student dog.

Life is really too difficult!

In the morning of the next day, Li Ji heard that the prince was going to give porridge outside the city, which won the praise of the people.

He knew that the prince was deliberately buying people's hearts, but he didn't take it very seriously.

On the contrary, Luo Yun was a little anxious.

Regardless of his unhealed injuries, he wrote an easy-to-understand poem himself, praising King Zhao's series of feats in finding out the bribery case, recovering the stolen money, and returning the money to the people.

The poem was posted at the gate of the city.

Luo Yun also recited this poem many times in front of many people.

He didn't feel at ease until everyone remembered King Zhao's kindness.

When Li Cheng heard about this, he was naturally very angry.

He said bitterly.

"This Luo Yun really doesn't know how to flatter him, he should have been killed with a single knife in the first place!"

In addition to Fu'an County, several other states and counties were also affected by the disaster and were anxiously waiting for relief.

The prince and his party cannot stay in Fu'an County for long.

After the bribery case of Gao, Cao and Deng's family was properly handled, they left Fu'an County in a mighty way.

Luo Yun personally took the people out of the city to see them off.

In the wind and rain, they knelt down in the direction of the relief team.

They didn't stand up until the team completely disappeared from sight.

In the next few states and counties that the disaster relief team went to, the disaster situation was worse than the other. In two counties, even the county government was submerged, and many officials were washed away by the flood.

When they saw the money and food sent by the court, they were all crazy with joy.

The food crops in this year are mainly wheat and rice.

Restricted by farming methods, varieties, and climate, etc., the yields of these two kinds of grains are very low.

The food distributed by the imperial court is mainly rice and flour.

Under the supervision of the soldiers, the refugees lined up and received their share of food one by one.

In order to show his love for the people as the prince, Li Cheng went to the porridge shed to appease everyone despite the rain.

Probably because his acting skills are so good, the common people have a good impression of him, thinking that although he is a prince, he does not have the airs of a prince, and is very close to the people.

As he wished, he gained enough reputation in the hearts of the people, and Li Cheng is in a good mood these days.

But when he saw King Zhao, he suddenly calmed down a lot.

Because he remembered Sang Zhong who was still held in the palm of King Zhao.

Sang Zhong is very loyal, and he should not easily confess to him as the mastermind.

But people's hearts are changeable, who can guarantee whether Sang Zhong can withstand King Zhao's torture to extract a confession?

If Sang Zhong confessed to him, his situation would be very bad.
