Her Highness Doesn’t Want to Work Hard Anymore

Hua Manman listened to the two people coming and going, and always felt that the atmosphere was weird.

The reason why the two are hostile in "Gongmou" is because they threaten each other's status and are related to their own interests. Naturally, the two are in the same situation.

But now one of them is an idle prince who has no power in his hands, and the other is a desolate prince who has been neglected.

The two have basically no intersection, and it stands to reason that there should be nothing to argue about.

But looking at the appearance of these two people, it is obvious that they don't like each other.

Really puzzling.

Li Ying invited them to sit down.

Li Ji didn't move: "We still have something to do, so we can't stay with you for too long."

Li Ying ignored his refusal and said directly to Hua Manman behind him.

"I've always wanted to talk to the concubine about something. It's rare to see you today. Could you please chat with me?"

Hua Manman immediately thought of the little purse.

Presumably the fourth prince is still obsessed with that little purse, so he wanted to come to her face to face to ask her clearly.

Seeing that the fourth prince actually bypassed him and talked directly to Hua Manman, Li Ji was very dissatisfied, and the smile on his face faded accordingly.

He didn't want Hua Manman to have contact with the Fourth Prince, and was about to drag Hua Manman away directly.

But Hua Manman grabbed his sleeve.

Li Ji looked down at her with a questioning expression.

Hua Manman asked eagerly.

"My lord, can I let my concubine chat with the fourth prince?"

She originally wanted to avoid this pot of dog blood as much as possible.

But judging from the current development, the fourth prince is not the kind of person who will give up easily.

Coupled with the power of the plot, this pot of blood will be poured on her sooner or later.

That being the case, she might as well talk to the fourth prince face to face now, so that he can give up completely.

It happened that King Zhao was also here, and with him watching, she didn't have to worry about the fourth prince impulsively doing anything irrational.

Li Ji heard her voice and knew that she had thought everything through.

But he still felt uncomfortable.

If he had known this, he would not have brought her to listen to the corner.

Originally, he thought he could see the ambiguous scene between the fourth prince and Lin Qingzhi, so that Hua Manman could know what kind of guy the fourth prince was.

Unexpectedly, the fourth prince just let Lin Qingzhi touch his leg.

On the contrary, this further highlights the fourth prince's unfeminine image,

In the end, the fourth prince found a chance to talk to Hua Manman face to face.

Li Ji only felt that he really lost his wife and lost his army, a big loss!

Hua Manman knows King Zhao's character, and he will definitely be unhappy.

She was ready to explain.

As a result, Li Ji just snorted, then lifted the hem of his clothes, and sat on the chair next to him.

Hua Manman blinked, feeling quite surprised.

King Zhao agreed?

This is too easy!

While she was in a daze, Li Ying had already walked in front of her.

The teacup that Li Ji had just picked up immediately put it down again.

He said with a cold face: "Just talk when you talk, what are you doing standing so close?"

The sourness of those words almost burst through the roof.

Hua Manman wants to laugh but dare not.

She tried her best to tighten the corners of her mouth, looked at the fourth prince in front of her and said seriously.

"Your Highness, I know what you want to ask."

Li Ying looked at her fixedly, his eyes were as deep as the sea.

He took out the small pouch he carried with him from his sleeve, and asked each word in a word.

"Is it yours?"

Hua Manman took the purse from him, looked at it carefully, and answered truthfully.

"I don't remember. I had an illness when I was a child, and I forgot some things after I recovered. But I did lose a purse. The pattern on the purse is the same as this one."

Li Ying squeezed her purse tightly, her knuckles turned white because of too much force.

"You are, when did you get sick?"

Hua Manman: "Eleven years ago, after the Lantern Festival, I was in a coma overnight because of the cold and fever all over my body."

Li Yingying was obsessed, and kept repeating.

"Eleven years ago, Shangyuan Festival, eleven years ago, Shangyuan Festival..."

He couldn't help but took another step forward, his voice trembling unreasonably.

"It's you, it's you!"

Hua Manman took a step back, keeping a distance from him.

Compared to Li Ying's excitement, she was too calm.

As if she was not the party involved, but just an outsider.

"Maybe the person you're looking for is indeed me, but I don't remember you anymore.

The memory you never forget has long been forgotten by me.

Between you and me, I have long missed it. "

Li Ying froze in place.

It was as if a basin of cold water had been poured into his heart.

Just now he was full of joy because he found the person he never forgot.

Now this full of joy was completely extinguished.

Hua Manman: "I'm married now. The prince treats me very well. I will spend this life with him. I believe that the Fourth Highness will definitely meet the person who will be with you for the rest of my life."

Instead of looking at Li Ying's pale face, she went straight to the small stove used to make tea.

She picked up the teapot and threw the purse into the stove.

"Do not!"

Li Ying rushed to the stove without hesitation, reaching out to grab the small purse in the flames.

Hua Manman hurried to stop him.

However, Li Ying seemed to be crazy, grabbing the purse abruptly from the fire.

He quickly extinguished the flames on the purse.

Even though his series of movements were as fast as the wind, most of his purse was still burned.

The purse, which was originally small and exquisite, has become beyond recognition now.

Li Ying looked at the tattered purse lying in his hand, his eyes were red, and he didn't speak for a long time.

His fingers were scalded by the flames and had several blisters, which were so red that it hurt to look at them.

Seeing this, Hua Manman felt somewhat guilty.

she said softly.

"The past is in the past, and it's not good for you or me to keep this thing."

Li Ying tremblingly said: "For you, it's over, but for me, that's the only warmth left in my life."

Hua Manman comforted: "One has to look forward, in the future you will meet someone better than me."

Li Ying laughed at himself.

"Not anymore."

Hua Manman is actually not very good at comforting people.

Those few words just now were already her limit.

She didn't know what to say next, so she could only keep silent.

At this time Li Ji stood up: "Manman, let's go."

"Um."

Li Ji stepped forward, took Hua Manman's hand, and led her out.

Li Ying was still looking at the tattered purse in his hand.

When everyone left, he was the only one left in the private room.

His mother came from a humble background, which made him destined to be unpopular from the moment he was born.

His life is full of ups and downs.

And he had to struggle to survive in the wind and snow.

The appearance of that little girl was the first ray of sunshine in his life.

Even though that ray of sunshine disappeared soon, it still left a warm feeling in his heart.

He thought that as long as he could firmly grasp this warmth, there would still be hope for a bright future in life.

But when he really found that person, he realized that she had already forgotten him.

Those so-called warmth and light are just his wishful thinking.

After all, he still has nothing.
