Her Highness Doesn’t Want to Work Hard Anymore

Hua Manman quickly asked: "Since we are not ordinary people, why do we still want to rob your child? Don't we still need the money to sell the child?"

The woman choked hard.

She began to talk about him left and right.

"Then how do I know?

It may be that you are going to use my child to do something shameful.

I don't understand these things, I just want my children back.

Please give me back the baby. "

The owner of the noodle shop felt that what each of them said was reasonable, and he was in a dilemma, not knowing who to trust.

The onlookers next to him had similar thoughts.

The woman became more and more anxious.

When the child's family members were not paying attention, she quietly lured the child to a secluded place, then drugged her into a stupor and carried her away.

Counting the time, the child's family must have discovered that the child is missing by now.

If they came, she would be in danger.

After weighing the balance, the woman still feels that keeping her own safety is the most important thing.

So while crying and wanting to get the child back, she moved back without a trace.

Just at this moment, there was a burst of shouting from the entrance of the alley.

Someone was crying desperately.

"Baby! My baby is gone!!"

Everyone in the alley subconsciously turned their heads to follow the prestige.

The woman's heart tightened, and she ran towards the alley.

Li Ji was about to ask the guards hidden in the night to chase after him, when he saw a person coming out of the alley.

When the man saw the woman rushing towards him, he didn't dodge or dodge. He raised his leg and kicked hard on the woman's knee.

The woman was in pain, and she let out a scream, and fell heavily to the ground.

At this moment, the owner of the noodle shop also came to his senses and shouted at the woman.

"Hey, why are you running away? Is this child really not yours? Then where did this child come from?"

The woman is full of horror and fear at the moment, how can she have the mood to answer the noodle shop owner's repeated questions?

Now she has injured one arm and one leg, and she can't even climb up, sweating profusely from the pain.

Hua Manman and Li Ji walked to the alley, and unexpectedly found that the person who kicked the woman down was an acquaintance.

It was Li Ying, the fourth prince.

Li Ying should have left the palace today in modest clothes, wearing the clothes of ordinary people.

His eyes were particularly dark and deep because of his pale skin.

He obviously didn't expect to meet King Zhao here, so he froze for a moment before opening his mouth slowly.

"If I had known that King Zhao was here, I would have stopped meddling in my own business."

Li Ji smiled: "I didn't expect that the fourth prince is still warm-hearted."

What he said sounded like a compliment, but it sounded strange.

As we all know, the fourth prince Li Ying is a taciturn and solitary person. Words such as kindness, bravery, and courageous deeds have nothing to do with him.

But just now he took the initiative to intercept a Huazi.

This is the complete opposite of his usual low-key style.

Li Yingying didn't hear the temptation in King Zhao's words.

He nodded slightly, then turned and left without hesitation.

Hua Manman also thought it was strange that the Fourth Prince appeared here.

But she didn't have time to think about it.

Because the child's family came to find him.

As soon as they saw the child in Hua Manman's arms, they were very excited.

Hua Manman only returned the child to them after confirming that they were indeed the child's family members after multiple confirmations.

The family was overwhelmed with gratitude to Hua Manman and King Zhao, and repeatedly asked for their names and addresses, hoping to come to thank them someday.

Hua Manman waved her hand to say no.

She smiled and said, "If you really want to thank us, you can donate some money, food or clothes to the charity hall. If you do good deeds, you will be rewarded."

The family hurriedly nodded in response.

Seeing that it was very late and Hua Manman was tired, she and King Zhao got into the carriage and went back to the palace.

Let's talk about the fourth prince, Li Ying has not returned to the palace yet.

He wandered aimlessly in the city of lights.

The guards didn't dare to get too close, so they could only follow the fourth prince from a distance, secretly protecting his safety.

They are bodyguards in name, but in fact they have been subdued by the fourth prince, and now they are all looking up to the fourth prince.

Li Ying would visit the Lantern Festival every year.

It's not for appreciating the lanterns, but for finding people.

When he was a child, he used to go out of the palace with his elder brothers to watch the lanterns. During the process, he accidentally separated from them and was arrested by Pai Huazi.

He originally thought that he would never go back.

Because he knew that his father disliked his background, and his brothers also looked down on him.

Even if he was kidnapped and sold, no one would care.

During the process of being kidnapped, Li Ying met a little girl.

The little girl was flustered at first and cried endlessly. After being threatened by Pai Huazi, she was too frightened to cry any more, so she could only snuggle up to Li Ying's side and tremble.

Probably out of sympathy, Li Ying comforted her and told her not to be afraid.

The little girl was already in a state of panic, and when she was coaxed by him, she immediately regarded him as the backbone and stuck to him every step of the way.

Li Ying was in a complicated mood at the time.

From the day he was born, no one wanted him.

Everyone looked at him with disgust and indifference.

No one has ever depended on him from the bottom of his heart like that little girl.

That strong feeling of being needed made Li Ying feel very fresh and at the same time a little happy.

By coincidence, he took the initiative to take off the prayer beads around his neck, stuffed them into the little girl's hands, and whispered to her.

"This is a relic left by my mother. It can keep you safe. If you wear it, you will be safe."

As if she had found a treasure, the little girl took the beads with both hands, holding them tightly, not daring to let go.

Li Ying had given gifts to others before, but they were all thrown away as garbage.

Only the little girl in front of her is willing to protect her like a treasure.

I don't know if the beads played a role.

They were found the next morning.

Seeing that they were about to separate, Li Ying felt a little bit reluctant.

However, before he could ask the other party's name and identity, the little girl was picked up by the hurried family.

Probably because of too much haste, the little girl dropped her purse on the ground and no one found it.

Li Ying picked up the small purse, thinking that when he saw her again in the future, he would return the purse to the original owner.

However, this wait is more than ten years.

He would come to the Lantern Festival every year to see if he could find the little girl whom he met once again.

It's a pity that I am disappointed every time.

Since he was kidnapped and trafficked when he was a child, Li Ying hated people like Pai Huazi deeply, that's why he suddenly took action to intercept that Pai Huazi just now.

Seeing that it was almost time for the palace gates to close, Li Ying was quite disappointed knowing that this year he had returned without success.

He was about to turn around and walk back, but saw a young woman standing on the side of the street in front of him, looking at him blankly.

Under the lamplight, the woman's eyes were full of light.

It's kind of like looking back suddenly, but that person is in a dimly lit place.

Li Ying's heart moved, and he walked towards her involuntarily.
