The Princess's Deadly Daily Life

The light was dim. Her dress was made of the finest brocade, embroidered with patterns, and was very thick. It took some time to tear it open. He couldn't wait to find a knife to cut the fabric, so he breathed rapidly, and the turbid air he exhaled made her dizzy.

Li Xiying had been hungry for a day, and she struggled hard, trying to prevent him from tearing her dress easily. She had to hold her breath while saying, "It seems that you don't know who I am, so you dare to be so rude!"

"Do you know what kind of torture awaits those who are caught assaulting the princess?"

He paused slightly, not because he was afraid, but because when he heard the word "princess", he was curious about what she was going to say.

She did not struggle and continued, "I have witnessed with my own eyes the strictness of the Tang laws and the severity of the punishments. The criminals at that time committed the same crimes as those Yanqi people did yesterday, and even more so the crimes you are about to commit now!"

He was obviously angry, "If you say that again, I'll kill you!"

"If you kill me, won't the royal family come after you? You Yanqi people are very easy to identify. If a criminal edict is issued, people like you will be arrested and convicted!"

He didn't believe it and said confidently, "If you don't tell me and I don't tell you, how did they know it was me?"

"Do you know that it was me who put the Yanqi people in jail? I was retaliated for this, so I would naturally suspect the Yanqi people who were not in jail! Maybe the people I sent have already caught up with us."

His legs suddenly went limp and he slumped to the side. "So..."

He didn't know that the identity of the woman in front of him was so unusual. He was alone at the moment. He had always been timid, so he had never participated in their affairs. He worked honestly and diligently, and never thought that he would offend the Tang royal family this time!

Li Xi said, "When a criminal like you is taken to the execution ground, the most experienced executioner must first wield the knife, then strip the criminal of his clothes, and then cut the flesh one by one from the fattest parts." As she spoke, her eyes slowly moved to his naked body, and she continued without hesitation, "Start cutting from the chest, and then move up from the thighs. Each time you cut, you must avoid the vital parts, until only the bones are left in your thighs and arms, and your chest organs can be seen from your chest. Finally, even if you cut off your nose and dug out your eyes, you can't be killed easily."

Her gaze at this moment was like a knife with a flash of cold light, and he was the fish on the chopping board, moving inch by inch, "This is the punishment of slow slicing. The cause of death of the criminal is not death by pain, but by blood loss. Then the execution is successfully completed, and the criminal finally dies in pain in front of everyone!"

"Did you really want to end up like this?"

The night was very quiet. He felt that the words of the woman in front of him were like the words of a ghost. The light flickering in her eyes was like an ice blade, stripping him of his clear mind.

It was the first time he did this and he had no experience. He thought she was just an ordinary young lady, so he agreed to do it. But when he heard what she said, his enthusiasm immediately cooled down and he was no longer interested.

He was alone when he set out, without any other helpers.

Because many Yanqi people were imprisoned, and he was deeply involved in yesterday's case, he had not participated in it, so it was natural for him to be spared, but he did not expect to be involved in this way!

"Do you know why those Yanqi people were captured yesterday? Or do you know who I am, but have no idea what consequences you will have to bear?" she said slowly again.

He swallowed his saliva, and listened to how the criminals in front of him were being tortured to death. He felt as if he were there in the scene. When he came to his senses, it was as if a basin of ice-cold water was poured over his head, and he just listened in a daze.

Li Xiying knew that in the moment he hesitated at the beginning, her goal had been achieved to a small extent!

"Because they kidnapped my personal maid and raped her." She said slowly, "I don't know if you have never done similar things, or if you have done them and have not been caught, but if you continue to make mistakes, you will inevitably follow in their footsteps."

This person had no clothes on. He was not afraid of the cold just now because he was angry. It was late at night and the spring weather was getting chilly. Now he just felt cold from the inside out. After being blown by the wind for a long time, he couldn't help shivering and his body was covered with goosebumps.

"I know that since you are traveling day and night, your purpose is not to kill me, otherwise you would have done it long ago, so why take the risk?"

He began to pick up his clothes and put them on tremblingly.

The young lady in front of him was not afraid at all, and didn't seem to be afraid of what he would do to her. He couldn't bear the consequences that she could bear, and... he didn't want to offend the royal family, his life was precious.

She had an innate dignified look and an undeniable intimidation in her tone, so he had to believe it.

But the arrow has been put on the string and has to be shot. Things have come to this point. He has lost interest and is afraid of losing his life. If he lets her go now, she will definitely not be able to escape. It is better to hold her hostage while there is still a glimmer of hope!

He didn't believe that he could escape if he let her go, and the royal family wasn't chasing them anyway!

"I won't touch you for now, and don't try to scare me with lies! When...when we get to the village, you will be helpless, and we'll...we'll talk about it later!" His teeth were chattering with cold. He quickly put on his clothes and rubbed his hands, not looking at her eyes that could see through people's hearts.

As he said this, he spat again, regretting that he should not have removed the cloth from her mouth. Then he picked up the rope again and wanted to tie her up.

Li Xixiao suddenly retracted his foot and said, "It's dark outside. I've been traveling all day. How can I run away? Even if I jump down, can I outrun you with my own two feet? It's better not to tie me up like this!"

He picked up the lantern and heard that it was true. He put away the rope and glanced at her vaguely, "I don't think you dare to run away!"

He went out and sat back in the front room, hung up the lights, pulled the reins and continued driving.

Li Xiwei slowly breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that she had temporarily overcome this difficulty. However, she also knew that if she stayed in the so-called village, it would naturally be no less than entering a bandit's den.

She was sitting closer to the front room and talking to the man. In fact, she had seen the hanging scene that was just mentioned with her own eyes.

At that time, my fourth uncle had a fiancée, who was said to be gentle and beautiful with both talent.

But before she married her fourth uncle, she was... assaulted on her way home from a banquet.

Later, due to public opinion, she could not bear the humiliation and hanged herself.

The criminal was hanged, and my fourth uncle personally supervised the execution.

She also sneaked away to watch the execution, and she had nightmares during that period.

"In fact, you don't know how powerful my fourth uncle is. I remember when I was young, I was playing around and fell into a pile of charcoal, which burned a large piece of meat on my back. My grandfather... the emperor, did not call the imperial physician at the first time, but called my fourth uncle to treat my injury."

As she spoke, she opened a corner of the curtain to see if he had heard her.

Although he was in a hurry, he heard clearly and listened attentively. It was boring to travel at night, and when she suddenly stopped talking, he urged her to finish quickly.

The corners of her lips curled up. "His medical skills are very superb. Although the imperial doctors can treat burns, they cannot achieve the effect of leaving no scars. The reason why my fourth uncle was called by my grandfather is because he can treat this kind of disease without leaving any scars."

"Your fourth uncle is so powerful, then..." He suddenly realized something and stopped talking, turning his head to look at her with half of his eyes, "You want me to take you back, right? I won't be fooled by you!"

Li Xi was so scared that he hid inside and calmed himself down.

"I'm just telling you about my fourth uncle's superb medical skills. He's so effective in treating burns, so it shouldn't be a problem for him to treat your face!"

"And your figure is also..." She used her shoulder to lift a corner of the curtain again and looked at his hunched back, "You are also... a young man. If it weren't for the poison on your face, you would definitely be able to live a happy life in Chang'an."

"If you bring the antidote back to the village and give it to people who have the same problem as you, then you will not only cure the poison, but also benefit the village. The most important thing is - you will become prosperous overnight and reach the pinnacle of life."

After saying this, she didn't believe that he wouldn't be moved.

The other party was silent for a long time, and seemed to be hesitant...

He suddenly stopped talking and shook the reins in annoyance, "You said it was useless after spending all day. It's not that I don't want to let you go, it's..."

"I know someone asked you to kidnap me. Who is behind this? Tell me, what are you afraid of?"

What Li Xiying said was very pertinent. She was just a sheep to be slaughtered. What was there to be afraid of if she told the truth? At least traveling in the lonely night was not as boring as traveling during the day.
