The Princess's Deadly Daily Life

Chapter 129 No One Was Spared

Long Qi tore open the seal and pushed open the door.

The Prime Minister's Mansion was dead silent, with burnt surfaces everywhere. In addition to the bloodstains all over the ground, he searched inside and outside but could not see a single person.

He saw blood on the walls, pillars, ground... everywhere, but he didn't believe it!

Suddenly, there was a person hiding at the door. When he saw that it was Long Qi, he chased after him and asked in a trembling voice, "My dear, where is the princess?"

His eyes were full of scarlet. He stared at the amber in front of him and asked suddenly, "What happened?"

Amber said in fear, "Yesterday...Yesterday, after my husband took the princess away, I immediately left the Prime Minister's residence to look for the princess. I searched all night but couldn't find her. Suddenly, I discovered that there was a fire in the Prime Minister's residence. When I rushed over, I saw...I saw a group of soldiers suddenly break into the Prime Minister's residence and kill anyone they see. Blood splattered everywhere they went. Even the Prime Minister and his wife were not spared."

"I hid outside the palace until they had killed everyone. Then I heard the messenger hurried over and read out the decree of demotion in front of all the corpses!"

"The bodies were all taken to a nearby 'barren mountain' and dumped there."

The scenes from yesterday were all before her eyes, but fortunately the princess was not here! They were cruel, killing people with every blow, leaving no chance for survival. After saying this, Amber was still trembling all over.

Veins bulged on Long Qi's forehead, and his fingers almost dug into his flesh.

"Where is the princess?" Amber was still shocked and worried about the princess' safety.

He came back to his senses and took Amber to the guest house.

When Li Xixiao saw Amber's face turned as pale as liver, she guessed that something must have happened again.

She asked Amber, but Amber didn't dare to say.

Even Long Qi looked extremely heavy-hearted. When he turned around to leave, Li Xiying called him, "Where are you going?"

Long Qi said: "Go to the deserted mountains and look for the bodies of my aunt and uncle."

Li Xi was horrified. "What?"

Amber looked pale.

Long Qi raised his eyes, and after a long while, he finally said truthfully: "Someone issued an impeachment document late last night. Before the imperial edict to confiscate property and demote officials arrived, someone could not wait to lead troops to slaughter hundreds of people in the Prime Minister's Mansion!"

People nearby saw corpses being carried out of the Prime Minister's Mansion continuously, and the scene was horrific.

Li Xixiao was silent. Thinking of the kind appearance of the prime minister's wife, she felt a vague burning pain in her heart. She wanted to find Zhier and recognize her, and even thought that Zhier was dead. Unexpectedly, she died tragically in front of Shanluo.

Considering the circumstances, the prime minister's wife treated her very well and helped her a lot. Even when she was poisoned and her life was hanging by a thread, she still believed in her and helped her get rid of the false accusation.

Although she knew that Madam Xiang mistook her for Zhi'er, how could she be so foolish as not to know?

She didn't know when her eyes turned red.

It was already evening when Long Qi arrived at the barren mountain.

The smell of blood came from all directions, and a feeling of powerlessness suddenly filled his body. With a heavy face, he searched for the bodies of his aunt and the prime minister, turning over the corpses piled in clusters along the way.

Just now there was a group of wild dogs, some tearing and biting everywhere, some running away with a piece of limb in their mouth, but most of them just hunched over nearby with their tails between their legs when they saw people coming.

He was tall and slender, with half-closed eyes and a pair of hands stained with the blood of many people.

These bloodstains included those from the servants and maids in the prime minister's mansion, as well as those from the manager and the accountant...but the bodies of the prime minister and his wife have not been found yet.

Suddenly, he seemed to see a piece of dirty and tattered cloth under a carbon-black corpse. It was obviously the material that his aunt often wore, but the corpse had lost its appearance and was unrecognizable.

Soon he found the prime minister among more than a hundred corpses.

Long Qi's robes were already stained with dirt, and there was blood on his hands. He looked at the corpse in front of him. His face was intact. It was undoubtedly the prime minister.

There was a sudden roar in the sky, and sudden wind and rain.

A quarter of an hour, two quarters of an hour... For an hour he was like a wooden stake growing there, not moving an inch.

Next to the body of the prime minister's wife was the body of the prime minister. His face looked peaceful, and he was lying stiffly on the ground in an inhuman posture.

Memories of the past twenty years flashed through his mind like a revolving lantern. His aunt treated him as her own son, and the prime minister also treated him as a relative. How could he have imagined that in just one day, both of them would die tragically in the prime minister's mansion and their bodies would be abandoned in the wilderness?

The rain flowed down his cheeks and dripped down his blood-stained arms, washing the ground with mud and also washing the corpse in front of him.

He finally fished the two bodies out of the mud and water, dug a pit on the spot and buried them.

At this time, an old man was walking towards the hillside in the distance.

Wearing a straw raincoat and a hat, he approached Long Qi step by step. After a moment of silence, he whispered, "Please accept my condolences. The situation is irreversible now. My dear, you have to come back to Yanqi Village with me first, and we can make a long-term plan."

The raindrops gradually became smaller, but a steady stream of rain continued to fall from Long Qi's jaw, splashing onto the ground.

"The last incident was also a misunderstanding. Qiao Xian took the initiative to harm your sweetheart. I was indeed unaware of it. I also reprimanded her after she returned..."

Bahar raised his head to reveal his white beard and aged face under his straw hat.

Long Qi did everything in silence, then stood up and glanced at him with empty eyes.

Bahar felt the chill in his eyes and could not help but explain, "I didn't know that the Prime Minister's Mansion would encounter such a change. When I get there..."

Long Qi's face was calm, and he said indifferently: "If it has nothing to do with you, don't show up in front of me."

Bahar saw that the rain had stopped, took off his straw hat and said with a smile: "I can't leave, I still have something to tell you."

Long Qi stopped.

Bahar finally said with a sigh: "Speaking of the death of King Liang's wife... I also had a small role to play in it."

After hearing this, Long Qi's sharp eyes shot straight over.

"I didn't know Zhu Wen could act so quickly and so urgently!"

The night wind blew through his white beard, and his weathered old face wrinkled.

Bahar told Long Qi everything under his cold gaze.

Not long ago, he disguised himself as a flower vendor and sold all the poisonous flowers to Zhu Wen. Zhu Wen loved his wife, so he naturally gave the flowers to her.

The reason he did this was to help Zhu Wen quickly seize power.

Bahar sighed, "That day, King Liang bought all my flowers. I think he gave them to his wife. The poison in the flowers is so deep that no medicine can cure it... and the pain of losing his wife will make him take revenge on those who offended him even faster. Therefore, the storms stirred up by those useless people will definitely backfire, and the death of the prime minister is inevitable!"

The good fortune of the Tang Dynasty has finally come to an end!

Suddenly he sighed and said, "In fact, even if his wife is still alive, Li Tang's fate is about to end. The only difference is that he can control the puppet emperor for a few more years and maintain his loyalty on the surface!"

"Why didn't you tell me earlier?" Long Qi grabbed Bahar's raincoat and said with gritted teeth.

My aunt could have escaped this disaster!

Bahar frowned, his face full of helplessness. "What does it matter if I say it? Even if I say it, can it change anything? Everyone has his own destiny. I am not the King of Hell. How can I know when the Prime Minister will die?"

Long Qi's expression froze, and finally he let go of his raincoat after seeing his wrinkled face.

He asked others to do it, but he himself knew nothing about the affairs of the court. If he had paid a little more attention, he would have passed the imperial examination and entered the court like Cui Dalang, and worked with Cui in the court. He would have been able to foresee something!

In the end, everything... is too late!
