The Princess's Deadly Daily Life

Li Xiying had been traveling all night and had to change carriages. She fell asleep without knowing when due to the bumpy ride. Not only did she fall asleep, she slept very soundly. When she woke up, it was already bright outside and she was in her warm tent with soft quilts.

The familiar corridor, furnishings and the aroma of the incense burner in the air made her more dazed.

Is this the Prime Minister’s Residence?

She pondered for a moment, but it made sense. If Long Qi sent her back to her fourth uncle, she would have to be questioned by her fourth uncle. Moreover, it was the dead of night, and making such a passive and troublesome decision would naturally not be as simple and hassle-free as taking her back to the Prime Minister's Mansion first.

"Is anyone there?" Li Xiying felt her throat hoarse and her lips dry, but when she looked through the gauze curtain, there was silence all around, as if there was no one else around.

At this time, someone came over, gently lifted the bead curtain, and with a crisp sound, a glass of water was poured from a place where she couldn't see, and slowly passed it to her through the gauze curtain.

She saw that the person who handed her the water had luxurious sleeves and long, slender fingers, and then he lifted the curtain and smiled at her.

Li Xixiao looked up and was slightly startled. She had not realized that the Prime Minister's wife had been in the room, sitting beside the bed.

She leaned against the bed and took the water. "Thank you."

"I'm really wronged." The lady sitting on the side said softly. Seeing her pale lips, she couldn't help showing worry.

Seeing that she had finished drinking, he took the cup and asked his maid to bring her a bowl of red bean soup with rock sugar. He said pityingly, "You have become much thinner. I don't know how much injustice you have suffered."

After Li Xiying drank a glass of water, the discomfort in her throat that felt like a knife cutting was relieved. Then the maid brought her a bowl of red bean soup, and she could only refuse it disrespectfully. She took the bowl with a smile and smelled the sweet fragrance.

When you first take a sip, it’s dense and glutinous, mixed with the rich soup, which is very refreshing.

She finally had the energy to respond, but she slept so soundly last night that she didn't even know how she got into the prime minister's residence, let alone how much the prime minister's wife knew about the truth of the matter, whether she had told her everything, or if she had said nothing at all, so... it was better to say as little as possible.

Thinking of this, she had almost finished eating and found that her outer clothes had been changed and a clean towel was placed beside the bed.

Then she picked up the handkerchief and wiped the corners of her lips, and smiled softly, "Thank you for your concern, Madam. I am sorry to bother you again."

The lady asked the maidservants at the side to take the empty cups and told them to go down and prepare another light lunch.

She held Li Xiying's hand and looked at her. Her face was still as pretty as ever, but her complexion was seven or eight points weaker than before; her originally fair cheeks became even paler, and the strange thing was that her lips became even redder than usual despite her haggard and unmade-up face. But she saw it with her own eyes, so how could she not see that something was wrong? She felt really distressed.

Thinking of the instigator, he could not help but choke: "It was the Yanqi people who captured you, right?"

Li Xi was asked this question quite suddenly and was confused for a moment.

But thinking back, Long Qi had no reason to hide it. He just didn't know whether his wife only had a partial understanding of it, so he could only nod slightly.

Madam Xiang laughed dryly for a while. When Aqi brought the unconscious Li Xixiao back home last night, he only said "rescued in Yanqi village" and said nothing else.

She had never seen Aqi's eyes so red before, but with just this one sentence, she immediately understood the reason and there was no need to ask any more questions.

"You don't have to hide it, I know the whole story..." She sighed for a while, "You don't know, I haven't been at peace for a few days. It turned out that the Yanqi man was playing tricks on me, disguising himself as you to deceive me, and I was foolishly fooled by him."

Li Xi was surprised. She never expected such a thing to happen in the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Madam Xiang continued, "That person wanted to marry Aqie in a fake marriage. I was thinking about how to arrange a marriage between you and Aqie, and planned to invite a matchmaker to hold a wedding banquet... I never thought that you had been abducted by the Yanqi people at that time. It was my ignorance that made me think about it. Now that things have come to this, I think about it again. I have been poisoned these months, and now you have been harmed. Everything has a traceable path. I am sure that this is all the plan of the Yanqi people."

"Their plan?" Li Xi asked, moving her lips.

These words woke Li Xixuan up, and she suddenly realized that the lady Qiao from Yanqi, whom she had never met before, was so deliberate in harming her, and her real purpose was just to - marry Long Qi?

So since the man surnamed Qiao has already disguised himself as her, he naturally has to make her disappear from this world to avoid being exposed.

Suddenly he remembered last night, the moment when Long Qi kicked Shi Yi away. He was bathed in darkness, and his entire surroundings were filled with an indescribable unique aura, and the old man Yanqi standing next to him seemed to have only apologetic feelings towards him.

After much thought, some answers seem to be revealed.

That Longqi must be closely related to the Yanqi people, which is why he appeared in the Yanqi village!

Then she looked back to normal and said to Madam Xiang, "I see. I wonder how Madam saw through the disguise of the Yanqi man?"

Madam Xiang was quite ashamed, she smiled and covered her eyes, "When did I have the ability to see through that treacherous disguise? However, I had a momentary suspicion, but it was only slight, but..."

As she was talking, she moved her hand away and smiled in an instant. She looked outside the slightly closed door and saw that there was no one there. Then she turned to her and said, "Aqi is really admirable. He saw through the clues at a glance without waiting for the man to show his true form."

Li Xiqi never thought that he had a good eyesight. If so, perhaps he went to Yanqi Village after discovering the clues?

"So they almost tied her up and arrested her to question her, but who would have thought that she would escape."

At this point, Madam Xiang no longer wanted to hide anything from her, so she held her hand and told her everything she knew, "In fact, the Yanqi people are good at changing their appearance, which is nothing new. I knew this ten years ago."

"Some things are long to tell..." She has always had a fondness for Xiying. Even though she and Zhi'er are two completely different people, Xiying is enough to support her full love. But it is undeniable that she has poured some of the love that is unique to mother and daughter into her from the beginning, and it is out of control.

Madam Xiang's eyes flashed with complicated emotions, and she smiled slightly: "If you listen to it, I guarantee you can solve most of your doubts."

Li Xi said: "I don't mind asking for details.

Madam Xiang sighed and said directly: "Can you tell...Aqi and I are also from Yanqi?"

Li Xiqi was inevitably surprised. He had just guessed that he was related to the Yanqi people, but he had never thought that he and the prime minister's wife were from Yanqi.

The prime minister's wife continued, "We are from the royal family of Yanqi. I am the daughter of the former king of Yanqi, and Aqi is my nephew. I came to the Tang Dynasty from afar thirty years ago, and married the current prime minister as the daughter of the former king of Yanqi, Long Zhun. After that, I had little correspondence with the royal family of Yanqi for decades. Time flies, and now few people know my identity. So when I learned that the Yanqi people had contracted the "epidemic" and fled to the Tang Dynasty, it was only twenty years ago..."

"Speaking of this, I'm reminded of the Yanqi man who was imprisoned a few days ago. It's been widely rumored these days that the Yanqi man was born ugly." Her eyes were slightly disturbed as she looked into the distance. "In fact, ugliness is not innate, but the 'epidemic' has not yet disappeared. You may not guess that the epidemic was caused by a woman twenty years ago."
