The Princess's Deadly Daily Life

After the maid said this, Li Xiying also realized that Ah Wu kept repeating the same sentence over and over again, and his whole body had obviously become rounder.

I almost got cheated by him.

Ah Wu inside the door seemed to have heard what was said outside. His round eyes looked everywhere except at the books. He stood up happily and said, "Sister, Ah Wu will study hard and will not let you down!"

Li Xixiao didn't care. She pushed the door open and walked in. She glanced at his shaved head and said, "Do you think that reading and learning are useless?"

He blinked, not daring to nod or shake his head. He lowered his head as if he had done something wrong. "Sister wanted Wu to study, but Wu lied to her. Wu was wrong."

She lifted his face, looked him in the eye, and said honestly, "The use of reading is not that I hope you will stand out or pass the imperial examination, but that the principles and knowledge in the books are separated from life and you will never be able to touch them even if you spend your whole life. Every word you know is like the snacks you like to eat every day. Every bite will grow into flesh and blood, and every word and sentence will form something in your head, and will gradually build a different Ah Wu. I think in the future, even if you don't touch books, you will definitely be able to use them. Anyone can show off their strength, but not everyone is born with knowledge."

Ah Wu seemed to understand, but when he heard that every word he learned would be as real as eating a meal, he believed it, his eyes full of stars: "I remember it, sister."

After leaving the room, the servant who was sent to report safety to Chu Yiyi's aunt also returned.

He said with difficulty: "Princess, I have delivered my message, but there is a young man there who heard that Madam Chu was in the mansion and followed her here."

Li Xi was slightly stunned, "Which gentleman?"

The servant shook his head and said, "That man was standing outside the door waiting for my report. He urged me to hurry up like a cow and said something... I actually made trouble for him. His temper is really not good."

"Did you reveal anything to him?" Chu Yiyi asked.

The servant stammered in annoyance, "That young man is really good at getting things to say. He got everything about Madam Chu to come out of me."

There was no emotion in Chu Yiyi's eyes, and she didn't say anything blaming him.

"I know who he is." Her voice sank slightly, and she exhaled, as if she had made up her mind, "Just tell him I won't see him. I'll go home in a few days, and tell him not to be forced by his mother to come to me, and not to make things difficult for him. We won't see each other again, and I won't come to Chang'an again, and I won't bother him anymore."

Now that things have come to this, we might as well leave it at that.

Li Xixuan's expression paused slightly, indicating that he should reply in this way, and the servant left.

A quarter of an hour later, the servant came back with an embarrassed look on his face, "Madam Chu, you'd better go out. He said that if you don't go out, he will wait for you outside."

After hearing this, Chu Yiyi hesitated for a while, and seeing Li Xiying nodded, she thought that she should make things clear, so she moved away.

Li Xiying was not with them, so their affairs naturally had nothing to do with her as an outsider. Besides, Cui Sanlang recognized her, and her identity would be exposed if she went out.

Once the identity is exposed, it will inevitably cause an uproar in the Prime Minister's Mansion, which is quite troublesome.

Cui Sanlang stood at the gate of the palace, pacing back and forth, completely different from his usual calm demeanor.

After Chu Yiyi came out, he finally recovered to normal, but when he saw the wound on her face, he became inexplicably manic again, "The Prime Minister's Mansion has enough rooms to accommodate ten of you, but you insisted on staying in an inn..."

He seemed to realize that this was not right, so he changed his tone, but it was a tone that could not be disobeyed: "Follow me."

Chu Yiyi smiled and asked, "What are you angry about?"

Cui Sanlang was dazed for a moment when he saw her scarred smile and seemed unable to answer.

She continued chatting, "You are angry that I, as your future wife, have lost my virginity; you are angry that why you made an engagement with me in the first place; you are even more angry that why we have known each other since childhood, how much better it would be if we had not known each other. In fact, if you don't want to, you don't have to come to me so impatiently. You have always been romantic and unrestrained, so naturally you won't wrong yourself for me. I will no longer ask you to do so, and I will not rush to brothels to bring you back, I will not go to the prime minister's residence alone to stay for a while, and there will be no chance for me to be disappointed in you and move out of the prime minister's residence and live in a dormitory!..."

She said it all in one breath, and she felt relieved. Then she deliberately curved her lips and said, "I just asked the servant to bring you this message. I'm afraid you don't believe it, so I'll say it again: 'I, Chu Yiyi, have decided not to marry you.' Take this good news back."

"That's not what I came for."

Cui Sanlang could normally say countless sweet words, but at this moment, they were choked in his throat.

At first he really didn't want to marry her so early.

However, he knew that it was only a matter of time before he would get married, and he did not want to be tied down by marriage. He hated the feeling of being bound. But for some reason, he lost his appetite and could not sleep at night during the days when he learned that Chu Yiyi had disappeared.

He even wondered if Chu Yiyi had disappeared on purpose just to make him worry, but even so, he had no interest in doing anything else.

He asked himself several times what was wrong with him? Why did he have to fall into the trap she set?

Looking for her became a daily routine until today when I heard news about her in her aunt's embroidery workshop.

When he tried every possible means to get the information out of her and heard that Chu Yiyi was kidnapped by thieves, extreme anger broke through all his previous feelings.

Maybe...she was right.

Chu Yiyi didn't listen to what he said anymore. She turned around and tried to go into the mansion, but he grabbed her wrist and said, "Do you think you can cancel the engagement just because you want to?"

Her injured wrist was touched, causing her to flinch subconsciously.

He was stunned for a while, and then he heard Chu Yiyi smile and said, "Of course."

His fingers relaxed slightly, and Chu Yiyi immediately withdrew her hand with a distant look on her face.

When he saw the wound on her wrist, he frowned in pain, but she didn't understand his intentions, and he just felt irritated, "I know you like to make trouble. You are injured so badly, and you don't want to go back to the Prime Minister's Mansion. Don't you want me to apologize to you? I can apologize to you in any way I want, just come back with me and I will apply medicine for you!"

He hadn't said anything nice to her for a long time. He was annoyed by her teasing and playing tricks on him on weekdays. Now he suddenly realized that he could say sweet words to anyone, but it was difficult for him to say such words to her, even though she was hurt and needed someone to comfort her.

He seemed to be subconsciously afraid to be nice to her, fearing that she would cling to him even tighter.

Chu Yiyi covered her sleeves, the curve of her lips did not change, "Thank you for your concern, my dear. I have already applied the medicine. Since you already know about this, please keep it a secret for me. I want to tell my parents about this in person, please don't let the news leak out in advance and make them worry."

"Finally, we will go our separate ways from now on, and we won't have to see each other again! Now that we have come to this, there is no need for you to waste any more words, please go back!"

Cui Sanlang watched her walk into the mansion with her eyes as dark as a dry well and without any emotion.

He stayed there for a long time, and it seemed that even the surrounding scenery had turned gray.

But I didn't know that after Chu Yiyi turned around, a lot of warmth fell from her face, dripping onto the ground and spreading all over the path.
