Her Highness Doesn’t Want to Work Hard Anymore

Although Hua Manman spoke very selfishly.

But Li Ji knew in her heart that she didn't have only one choice.

She can choose to cooperate with the system and complete the task honestly, and she can return to the original world after the task is over.

She didn't care about his life or death at all.

But the result was that she voluntarily gave up the smoother and smoother road, and took a huge risk to pull him back from the gate of hell.

Li Ji couldn't imagine how much courage she had to make such a decision without hesitation.

He felt his heart soften, and said in a trembling voice.

"Don't be so stupid in the future."

He is the evil star in the eyes of others, the existence that everyone fears to avoid.

He didn't deserve her kindness to him at all.

Hua Man muttered dissatisfiedly: "You are stupid."

Perhaps the moment she decided to save Li Ji was because she acted impulsively.

But looking back now, she doesn't feel any regrets.

If she had to make another choice, she would still use the resurrection pill on Li Ji.

Li Ji put him in his arms and hugged him tightly.

If his life is doomed to be lonely and gloomy, then Manman is a ray of light that accidentally broke into his life.

She silently stayed by his side, helped him heal his leg injury, helped him dissolve the poison in his body, and helped him change his established tragic fate.

now think of it.

Perhaps from the moment he met her, his life had already taken a turning point.

Li Ji brushed her earlobe with his lips, and said softly.

"It's great to meet you."

...

The people under Lu Wanqing found Yu Wang's body in the ice cellar.

King Yu had already died of illness, but because of Lu Kai's deliberate concealment, he has not been allowed to rest in peace until now.

Fortunately, the temperature in the ice cellar was very low, and Yu Wang's body was preserved fairly well.

Now that Lu Kai had been executed, Lu Wanqing didn't need to worry about anything, and immediately ordered someone to decorate the mourning hall, and invited the local eminent monks to chant scriptures, hoping that King Yu could rest in peace under the Nine Springs.

At this time, Mrs. Xie had been taken back to the palace.

She was very sad when she heard the news of Yu Wang's death, and knelt in front of Yu Wang's tablet and cried for a long time.

According to the custom, after seven days of mourning, mourning is required.

But before seven days had passed, turmoil broke out along the coast. Enemy bandits raided the docks, broke into the villages and towns near the coast and wantonly burned, killed and looted.

Fortunately, Li Ji dispatched Bian Ziming to guard near the pier in advance.

As soon as the enemy invaded, Bian Ziming led people to stop it, and at the same time ordered people to send the matter back to Lingxi city.

Lu Wanqing couldn't believe it: "Why are there enemy invaders?"

Ever since King Yu led his army to repel those enemy bandits, there has been no enemy invasion along the coast.

Now that the news of King Yu's death has just spread, it stands to reason that the island nation on the other side of the sea should not know about it, so why did they bring people over so quickly?

Li Ji said coldly.

"Ask your good second uncle. In order to fight against the imperial court, he not only recruited troops wantonly, but also lured wolves into his house."

Lu Wanqing only knew that the second uncle had always been ambitious, but she never thought that the second uncle would dare to cooperate with the enemy in order to realize his ambition.

Has he forgotten how many innocent people were killed when those enemy bandits invaded? !

When my grandfather repelled the enemy, he made an oath that as long as he was alive, he would not let the enemy enter Longdong County.

Unexpectedly, he had just died of illness, and before his bones were cold, the second uncle had already started planning to open the country to meet foreign enemies.

"How dare he? How dare?!"

Lu Wanqing was so angry that she clenched her hands into fists and slammed them on the table.

Hua Manman: "Now is not the time to be angry, the top priority is to get rid of those enemies as soon as possible, and don't let them continue to harm innocent people."

Li Liao: "How many soldiers and horses are there in Longdong County?"

Lu Wanqing suppressed the anger in her heart and tried her best to keep calm.

"Grandfather has 50,000 Zhennan troops under his command, I have 3,000 soldiers and horses in my hand, and my second uncle..."

She paused, and now she felt sick to her stomach just calling him second uncle.

She simply called the man by his first name.

"In addition, Lu Kai has recruited a lot of soldiers and horses recently, and the initial estimate should be more than 40,000."

If you put them all together, you can barely make up 100,000 soldiers and horses.

This is already a very large number.

If Lu Kai is really allowed to continue to live, maybe he can really be king in Longdong County with so many soldiers and horses.

However, Li Ji said: "Give us 40,000 troops to guard the Southern Army, and leave 10,000 troops to guard Lingxi City. As for the soldiers and horses that Lu Kai temporarily recruited, they are just innocent people used to make up numbers. Send them back to their original places. .”

Lu Wanqing's eyes lit up: "Are you planning to lead the troops to fight in person?"

Li Ji nodded: "Yes."

Naturally, Lu Wanqing had heard of the reputation of the Prince Regent, and knew that he was invincible.

As long as he fights, those enemies are nothing to fear!

Lu Wanqing immediately dispatched 40,000 soldiers to him, and at the same time ordered those people who were forced to join the army to be released to their original places, so that they could reunite with their families.

Time was running out, and after all the troops were gathered, Li Ji had to lead the army to set off.

Hua Manman sent him out and told him to protect himself.

Li Ji lowered his head, cupped her cheeks, and kissed her hard on the lips.

"wait me back."

There was a low coughing sound behind him.

"Ahem!"

Li Ji let go of Blossom Manman, turned his head to look, and saw Li Liao standing not far away.

Li Liao was wearing silver-black armor, making his figure even taller and more burly, with a sword hanging around his waist and a straight silver spear in his hand. The black cloak behind him was flapping in the cold wind.

Seeing him dressed like this, Hua Manman and Li Ji were a little taken aback.

Li Liao put the spear on his shoulder and said with a smile.

"It's been a long time since I went to the battlefield, and I also want to exercise my muscles."

Li Ji also laughed involuntarily.

He walked over and raised his right hand.

Li Liao also raised his right hand, gave him a high five, and then clasped both hands tightly.

The upper bodies of the father and son moved closer together, and their shoulders bumped into each other.

Step back and let go.

This is the gesture they used to cheer each other on when they went to the battlefield.

It is a signal that belongs exclusively to their father and son.

Li Ji and Li Liao got on their horses.

The movement and speed of the two are almost exactly the same.

If you don't look at their faces, they are like a real father and son.

Li Ji waved his hands at Hua Manman, then flicked the reins, and rode his horse towards the city gate.

Li Liao followed closely on his horse.

Behind them followed a group of heavily armed guards.

Hua Manman quickly ran down the stairs, and chased a few steps in the opposite direction where Li Ji left.

She put her hands to her mouth and yelled.

"Go early and come back early!"

When the person walked away and was completely out of sight, Hua Manman looked away.

Unexpectedly, just as she turned around, she saw two people standing not far away.
