Her Highness Doesn’t Want to Work Hard Anymore

Today's breakfast is rice porridge, and the quantity is limited. Li Yan was a step behind and was at the end of the line. When it was his turn, there was only a little porridge soup left in the pot.

How can you be full with that little porridge and soup?

So Li Yan has been hungry until now.

He couldn't bear it anymore, grabbed the roast chicken and started to feast on it.

If it were before, he would definitely not look down on this kind of greasy food, but now he thinks it is the most delicious food in the world, and he can't stop eating it.

He also choked on eating too fast.

The official took out a water bag and handed it to him.

"Your Highness Fifth, eat slowly."

After eating and drinking enough, Li Yan felt as if he was alive again.

He wiped off the oil stains around his mouth and put on new clothes.

The clothes were not only soft but also very warm. After putting them on, he immediately felt much warmer.

The official reminded in a low voice.

"Wear your new clothes inside so you won't be seen easily."

Li Yan curled his lips: "So what if I'm discovered? I'm not afraid of them."

That being said, he still keeps his old clothes outside.

After the official explained, he left.

Li Yan continued to repeat yesterday's work.

He thought he was well disguised, but when King Zhao came to inspect the construction site, he could see the tricks on him at a glance.

Li Ji didn't say anything, but whispered a few words to Bian Ziming.

The next day, the official came to deliver things to Li Yan again, but was caught by Bian Ziming.

Bian Ziming threw the burden back to the official on the spot and reported the matter to King Zhao.

That afternoon, the official was sent back to the Ministry of Industry.

The matter reached the emperor's ears.

The emperor was very annoyed by such things, and immediately ordered the official to be transferred to the marginal area.

This kind of transfer order is tantamount to exile, and if there is no accident, it is impossible for a person to return to Shangjing in this life.

This punishment can be regarded as very heavy.

Liu Ze understood that the emperor was beating him on purpose.

He didn't dare to send anyone to help his nephew, so he could only pray for his nephew in his heart, hoping that his nephew would survive this disaster safely.

Li Yan managed to live a good life for two days, but he was beaten back to his original shape in a blink of an eye.

He doesn't have enough food and clothing every day, and there is endless heavy work. Anyone around him can bully him.

There were more and more blood bubbles on the hands, some of which were accidentally broken, showing signs of inflammation and festering.

This kind of life is really unbearable!

At this moment, one of the people who lived in the same shack as Li Yan accidentally injured his arm during the stone-cutting process and was temporarily unable to continue working, so he was hurriedly sent away.

Li Yan didn't take this matter to heart at first, until at night when he fell asleep in a daze, he heard someone chatting quietly beside him.

"Old Zhang was so careless. He actually injured his arm. There was so much blood, it was scary to look at."

"Actually, it's just scary to look at. Old Zhang just hurt a little flesh, and he will heal in two days."

"How did you know?"

"Let me tell you, don't tell others. In fact, Lao Zhang hurt himself on purpose. His mother-in-law is about to give birth, and he is in a hurry to go back, but we haven't finished the work at hand. According to the rules, we can't He left halfway, so he intentionally hurt himself and took the opportunity to get away and go home."

"So it's like this. It's not easy for Lao Zhang. I heard that his family is very poor. Otherwise, he wouldn't have come to do this kind of hard work just to make a little money..."

...

The voices of the two men became lower and lower.

Li Yan didn't hear what they said next.

But a thought involuntarily popped up in Li Yan's heart——

Since Lao Zhang can get away with the injury, he should be able to, right?

As soon as this idea popped up, it became more and more intense.

He thinks the chances of success are high.

After all, he is a prince, even if he is demoted to a commoner for the time being, but his blood is there, it is impossible for his father to really push him to a dead end.

As long as he inflicted a slight injury and made himself look like he was dying, he would definitely be sent back to the palace.

At that time, he can still take the opportunity to pretend to be pitiful and sympathetic, and get forgiveness from his father.

The more Li Yan thought about it, the more he felt that this idea was very good.

He opened his eyes and looked to the side, wanting to see who the two chatting just now were.

But because the light was dim, and the two were sleeping with their backs facing him, Li Yan couldn't see their faces clearly at all.

Li Yan didn't take this matter to heart, and soon fell asleep again.

next morning.

Li Yan went to move the stones as usual.

In the process of carrying the stone, he deliberately pretended to be careless and sprained his right foot.

His original intention was to get a minor injury.

But what he didn't expect was that suddenly someone bumped into him from behind.

The boulder in his hand slipped down and hit his foot hard.

Immediately, a shrill scream could be heard throughout the stone cutting field.

...

Spring is here, and the peach trees outside the city are in bloom. I heard that the scenery is very beautiful, and many young couples go there for an outing.

Li Ji was very moved after hearing this.

He also wants to date his own princess.

When Li Ji proposed to visit Taolin, Hua Manman readily agreed.

"Okay, this concubine really wants to see peach blossoms too!"

So the two changed into light clothes and were about to go out when they saw Chen Wangbei walking in hastily.

"Report to the lord, something happened to the fifth prince!"

Li Ji frowned: "What happened to him?"

"The fifth prince accidentally fell down while carrying the stone, and his right foot was hit by the stone."

Li Ji knew that the stones used to build the Taimiao were not light, and a piece of stone weighed at least forty or fifty catties, so if he smashed it down suddenly, his bones might be broken.

Even though the emperor was deeply disappointed with Li Yan, he was the emperor's own son after all, and the father-son bond between them still existed.

Li Ji couldn't let this matter go unnoticed, so he could only put his plan of going out to play on hold for the time being.

He took Daoist Feihe with him and went straight to the Taimiao.

When they arrived at the Ancestral Temple, Li Yan had already been carried into the shack and lay down. His right foot was deformed by the smash, and blood continued to flow out from the wound.

The officials present were in a hurry, spinning around like a group of ants on a hot pot.

Seeing that King Zhao was coming, the officials hurriedly backed away and made way spontaneously.

Master Feihe put down the medicine box and began to treat Li Yan's injuries.

Li Yan was sweating profusely from the pain, and tears fell down his face.

He regrets it.

If he had known that he would be injured so badly, no matter how tired he was, he would not have sprained his ankle on purpose!

Li Ji happened to read Li Yan's heartfelt words.

After a little thought, he figured out why Li Yan was injured.

Presumably Li Yan wanted to get a minor injury on purpose to avoid being punished, but he didn't expect to be self-defeating and make himself seriously injured.

Li Ji pursed his lips and smiled lightly, his eyes were full of mockery.

How stupid.

Immortal Feihe quickly bandaged Li Yan's wound.

He stood up and whispered to King Zhao.

"The bone of the fifth prince's right foot has been broken. Although I can help him put the bone back together, his right foot will be inconvenient in the future."

In other words, Li Yan will become a cripple in the future.
