Li Ji tiptoed out, took a quick shower, took off his blood-stained clothes, and changed into clean and comfortable regular clothes.

He wiped his hair clean, ready to go back to the house and continue to accompany Manman.

Gao Shan came in a hurry.

"Report to the lord, General Xiaoqi, please see me."

Li Ji asked casually, "What is he doing here?"

Gao Shan: "I heard it's for the rebellion."

Li Ji was impatient to hear these things.

"What does this kind of thing have to do with my king? Let him stay where he is cool."

Gao Shan hurriedly said: "He also mentioned the fourth prince."

Li Ji paused.

He remembered that the fourth prince had always been thinking about Man Man, even if she was married, the fourth prince would still be wicked.

Li Ji felt that this person must pay more attention.

So he temporarily changed his mind and decided to meet Bian Ziming.

As soon as Bian Ziming saw King Zhao appearing, he subconsciously wanted to kneel down, but Li Ji stopped him in advance.

"Speak quickly if you have something to say, if you fart quickly, I have other things to be busy with."

He is still busy going back to the house to sleep with Manman.

Bian Ziming said honestly.

"The rebels in the city have been brought under control. This time, our Tiger Roaring Battalion made a great contribution, but this is all thanks to the prince. If you hadn't entered the palace single-handedly and scared the rebels into chaos, we wouldn't be able to do so easily. Into the city..."

Li Ji interrupted his rainbow fart impatiently.

"Get to the point!"

Bian Ziming was stunned: "Isn't what this subordinate said the main point?"

Li Ji scolded angrily.

"Tell me about the fourth prince."

Suddenly, Bian Ziming said everything he knew.

It turned out that after all the prisoners were released, the fourth prince Li Ying was also released.

When the prisoners hurt innocent people, Li Ying stepped forward and saved many people.

Later, he also led a team organized by folk rangers, and forcibly captured the East Gate.

After the rebellion in the city was brought under control, Li Ying ordered someone to open the east city gate, walked out covered in blood, knelt down on the ground, and greeted the emperor back to the city.

When Bian Ziming said this, he couldn't help curling his lips and whispering.

"We have already captured the south gate. It stands to reason that the saint should enter through the south gate. Because the south gate was blocked by the enemy with sand and stones, the saint can only enter through the east gate. It is in vain to let the four The prince took advantage of this."

Originally, their Tiger Roaring Battalion had contributed the most to this suppression of the rebellion, but they were robbed of the limelight by being so disturbed by the Fourth Prince.

Bian Ziming felt very depressed.

He really didn't expect that the Fourth Prince, who was normally inconspicuous and had little sense of presence, would become a blockbuster at a critical moment.

Li Ji had known for a long time that the Fourth Prince was not a simple person.

The cowardly silence before was nothing but an illusion he had disguised.

Now that King Dongyang has defected, the prince and fifth prince have passed away one after another, and the sixth and seventh princes are still young, no one can be Li Ying's opponent anymore, so he doesn't need to pretend anymore.

He wants to show his talents and let the emperor and the people of the world see that he is the most suitable person to inherit the throne.

Li Ji actually didn't care who was the last person to ascend the throne.

Only Li Ying can't do it.

Li Ying has always been unwilling to give up on Manman, if he is allowed to ascend the throne, he will definitely find a way to snatch Manman away.

Li Ji could not tolerate such a thing happening.

He had to find a way to stop Li Ying's plan.

...

Li Ji returned to the bedroom.

He was squatting down beside the bed, quietly looking at the long sleeping face.

Her eyes were closed, her long eyelashes drooped, her long black hair was scattered on the pillow, her skin was delicate and porcelain white, and her lips were red and full.

With her breathing, her chest rose and fell slowly.

Li Ji stretched out his hand and stroked a strand of hair from her forehead behind her ear.

Manman turned over at this moment, from lying on his back to lying on his side, his cheek pressed against Li Ji's hand.

As if feeling that his palm was very comfortable, Man Man rubbed against his palm, murmuring unconsciously in his throat.

Li Jisheng was afraid of waking her up, so he didn't dare to move.

After squatting for too long, he gradually felt his legs go numb.

He simply flicked the hem of his clothes, sat on the footstool beside the bed, and kept looking at Man Man.

It looked like a giant dragon guarding a precious treasure.

If he had a tail, he would definitely have to wrap Manman in a circle right now, so that no one else could covet her. Only he could see her and touch her.

Hua Manman slept deeply this time.

When she woke up, it was already afternoon outside.

As soon as she opened her eyes, she saw Li Ji sitting on the edge of the bed.

He still maintains the posture of his hands being pressed down by Manman, and the wide hem of his clothes hangs down on the ground.

Because he was too tall, sitting on a short footstool, he seemed to be very tight, which was a bit pitiful.

Li Ji spoke, his voice slightly hoarse.

"Have you had enough sleep?"

Hua Manman stared at him blankly: "You won't stay here all the time, will you?"

She glanced at the sky outside the window, from the time she fell asleep to now waking up, at least three hours have passed.

Li Ji withdrew his hand that was almost unconscious, and replied casually.

"No, I just came."

Hua Manman is dubious: "Really?"

Li Ji smiled: "What did I lie to you for?"

Don't look at him being able to say all kinds of flirty things on weekdays, but if he honestly admits that he has been guarding for three hours, he is a little bit speechless.

He leaned on the edge of the bed with one hand and stood up slowly.

"Should you be hungry? I'll get someone to get you something to eat."

Hua Manman also sat up.

She was indeed hungry, and her eyes lit up when she heard that there was something to eat.

Li Ji walked out of the room with steady steps.

After leaving the long sight, Li Ji immediately began to rub his sore and numb arms, and at the same time, he did not forget to move his two long legs that were numb.

Si Yun, who was waiting outside the door, happened to see this scene and couldn't help being stunned.

"My lord, what is this?"

Li Ji put down his hands, and said nonchalantly: "Princess is awake, you go and get some food from the kitchen."

"Here."

Soon the meal was sent to the bedroom.

Li Ji wanted someone to set up a low table on the bed and eat directly on the bed.

Hua Manman hurriedly said: "Don't bother, I'll just get out of bed and eat."

She is only pregnant, not paralyzed, so there is no need to exaggerate.

Li Ji wanted to hug her out of bed, but she sternly refused.

"I can walk by myself without hugging."

Li Ji expressed his disappointment.

Ruyun helped Manman get up.

"Princess, be careful."

After standing firmly, Manman pushed away Siyun's hand and walked straight to the food table.

She already smells the scent!

Li Ji deliberately stuffed two extra cushions under her buttocks so that she could sit more comfortably.

Because Manman is pregnant, the meals prepared for her in the kitchen are relatively light, and the ingredients used are more particular than before.
