After the episode where Princess Longzhu's marriage proposal was rejected, the Xiliang Mission has been in a low pressure.

So much so that the atmosphere of the whole banquet became weird.

When the banquet is over, the guests leave and go home.

The emperor slept with Concubine Liu Gui tonight.

Concubine Liu Gui took the opportunity to inquire about the emperor's tone, and wanted to know what the emperor thought of Princess Longzhu?

The emperor just smiled casually and didn't say much.

Concubine Liu Gui didn't ask any more questions when she saw this.

On the way back, Hua Manman peeked at King Zhao from time to time.

In all fairness, King Zhao was really good-looking, whether it was facial features, figure, or status, he was first-class. No wonder the Princess Longzhu, who is known as the Pearl of the Desert, would take a fancy to him.

Li Ji looked at her with a half-smile.

"What are you peeking at me for?"

Hua Manman blinked: "I didn't peek at you."

Li Ji leaned back and smiled like an evildoer: "If you want to see it, you can watch it openly, you don't need to be sneaky."

Hua Manman stopped looking at him, and turned to look out the window.

Li Ji reached out to lift a strand of her long hair, and asked, "Why didn't you ask me why you refused to marry Princess Longzhu?"

Hua Manman took it for granted.

"Of course you don't like her."

If King Zhao liked Princess Longzhu, he wouldn't think she looked like a female ghost.

Li Ji approached her: "Then do you know why I don't like her?"

Hua Manman: "Probably because her appearance doesn't fit your aesthetics."

Li Ji whispered in her ear.

"It's because I already have someone in my heart, and I can't tolerate anyone else."

Huamanman's heart was pounding.

She moved back a little, raised her hands to rub her numb ears, and muttered softly.

"You talk when you talk, what are you doing so close?"

Li Ji smiled and asked: "Why don't you ask me who is in my heart?"

Hua Manman raised his head to look at the sky, and then looked down at the hem of his skirt, but he didn't look at the man in front of him.

Li Ji was still urging: "Quickly ask."

Hua Manman began to pretend to be stupid, talking about him from left to right.

"Why aren't you home yet? I'm so sleepy, I really want to go to bed soon."

Li Ji looked at her angrily and amusedly.

"Is it that difficult for you to cooperate with me?"

Hua Manman yawned: "I'm really sleepy."

Li Ji pinched her face as if venting his anger.

He made it so clear, but she still pretended to be stupid.

I really don't know what she is still worried about?

After returning to the palace, Hua Manman went to bed immediately after washing up.

A system sound suddenly sounded in his head.

"Aren't you and Li Ji wishful thinking? Why don't you just follow his wishes?"

Hua Manman closed her eyes without moving, talking to the system in her heart.

"You have a system, why are you so gossip?"

System: "This is not gossip, this is a normal study of the host's psychology."

Hua Manman: "We must be fair. Before I answer your question, you must first answer my question."

The system is very vigilant: "What's the problem?"

Hua Manman: "Will I stay in this world forever in the future? Is it possible for me to return to the original world?"

The system gave an answer bluntly.

"The host has insufficient permissions, and the system cannot give an answer."

Hua Manman smiled: "You didn't directly deny it, which means that this is something that might happen."

The system knew that he had been tricked, so he immediately shut up and made no further sound.

The reason why Hua Manman doesn't respond to Li Ji's feelings is actually very simple——

There are too many uncertainties about her.

She wasn't sure what kind of tasks the system would release in the future, whether she would stay in this world for the rest of her life, or whether she could change the plot and reach the finale smoothly.

Her future is shrouded in fog, and nothing is clear.

Maybe she has a good relationship with King Zhao today, and tomorrow she will return to modern times in a blink of an eye.

How cruel is that to Li Ji who was left in this world?

Li Ji stretched out his arms, took her into his arms, rested his chin on the top of her hair, and rubbed her lightly.

The movements are natural and intimate.

...

The news about Princess Longzhu's marriage proposal being rejected spread throughout the elite circles in Shangjing City the next day.

Logically speaking, Princess Longzhu should feel ashamed and never dare to contact the king again.

Unexpectedly.

The next day Princess Longzhu came to Prince Zhao's Mansion in person.

She came to find King Zhao.

Li Ji didn't want to see her, so he casually said to Gao Shan.

"You can find any reason to send her away."

Gao Shan said with a bitter face: "Princess Ke Longzhu said that if you don't show up, she will wait until you show up."

Li Ji sneered: "Then let her wait."

Hua Manman clicked her tongue: "I didn't expect Desert Pearl to be quite persistent."

Li Ji sneered: "She's just spoiled, she really thinks everyone will follow her, this is Da Zhou, not their Xi Liang, if she continues to make trouble like this, there will be no good end."

Hua Manman: "But it's not a problem for her to stay in Prince Zhao's mansion all the time. Why don't I let my concubine meet her?"

Li Ji raised his eyebrows.

"What the hell are you trying to do?"

Hua Manman shyly said: "How can you say that? I just want to share your worries."

Li Ji really wanted to see what Hua Manman was going to do, so he said.

"I'll go with you."

In the hall specially used for receiving guests, Princess Longzhu was looking at the arrangement of the room.

When she saw King Zhao and his wife come in, she was obviously taken aback.

She didn't expect Princess Zhao to appear here.

Princess Longzhu quickly looked at Princess Zhao from beginning to end.

Although I really don't want to admit it, this Princess Zhao is indeed very beautiful.

But Princess Longzhu felt that Princess Zhao was not as good-looking as her.

Anyone with eyes should know who to choose between her and Princess Zhao.

Hua Manman smiled and said, "How come Princess Longzhu has time to visit our Prince Zhao's Mansion today?"

Princess Longzhu showed a naive and ignorant expression, and smiled coquettishly.

"I'm here to find King Zhao. I have something very important to tell him alone. Can the princess lend me King Zhao for a while?"

Hua Manman smiled more gently and kindly.

"What is the princess thinking? Of course this is not allowed."

Princess Longzhu choked hard.

Didn't it mean that the women of the Great Zhou Dynasty were all virtuous, virtuous and tolerant?

Why did Princess Zhao not follow the routine at all?

Princess Longzhu pretended to be surprised: "Can I just borrow it for a while? Why is the princess so stingy?"

Hua Manman was even more surprised than her.

"I just rejected your unreasonable request, and you actually said I was stingy? Even if you are the princess, you can't make trouble so unreasonably, right?"

Before Princess Longzhu could refute, Hua Manman followed up.

"Forget it, because you are young and ignorant, I won't be as knowledgeable as you.

You'd better go quickly, don't go home too late.

To be honest, it's not safe at night recently. People often steal dogs. I'm afraid something will happen to you. "

Princess Longzhu: "..."

Li Ji: Baby looks so cute, miss you~

Manman: ...
