The Princess's Deadly Daily Life

The antidote was quickly collected and produced.

After drinking it, the people in the village felt much better. They were overjoyed and continued to drink it.

In just a few days, the pustules, blood blisters and red spots on everyone's face faded away, leaving only some old scars that could not be eradicated. But they were no different from normal people and would not scare ordinary people.

Li Xuan had already settled down with Wei Yu and the others in Luoyang, so he wrote a letter to Li Xiying, saying that Chu Yiyi had been sent to the manor, and he would come to pick her up in two days.

Li Xiying wrote back to him, telling him that there was no need to send anyone specially, she would return to the farm on her own, and told him not to worry.

This relocation will definitely be very costly. How can Fourth Uncle have so much money?

They need to save their money for the wedding banquet!

She was just looking for someone to deliver the letter out of the village when she passed by the eaves of a corridor and caught a glimpse of a room with flames everywhere.

At the same time, a strong smell of burning filled the nose.

A woman passing by explained, "Someone is burning something inside."

"Of course I know there's a fire in there, but can you be sure that this faint flame and thick black smoke will be okay?" Li Xi looked towards the window, the smell of smoke was very pungent.

The woman said nonchalantly, "It's normal to have some smoke. After many people took the antidote and were almost cured, they handed over their human skin masks to Madam Qiao. Since there is no incinerator in the village, Madam Qiao gathered them in a cauldron and burned them all."

"Why isn't the burning done outdoors?" Li Xiqi asked in confusion.

Woman: “How should I know?”

The more serious her expression became, the more impatient the woman's voice became.

After saying that, the woman opened the door casually and said, "Look..." Before she could finish her words, hot air rushed out along with thick smoke, choking her so much that she turned around and coughed.

After coughing, the woman immediately screamed in panic: "Ahhhh... No, there's a fire!"

Li Xiying turned around the door filled with thick smoke and walked to the window. Through the window, she vaguely saw a woman who seemed to have fainted beside the furnace inside.

Fortunately, the fire did not spread widely, but there was a lot of smoke and the temperature was too high so no one dared to go in directly.

Li Xiying noticed that she was next to the window with a gap open. As long as the window was chiseled open, there was a chance that she could be rescued, but once the fire spread to her, it would be too late, so he had to race against time to smash the window open.

She called on many people who were at a loss as to what to do to break the windows together.

Soon someone came in and dragged the person out. At this time, the firefighters also arrived and used water bags and splash guns to put out the fire in the house.

In an instant, the whole room became like a steamer with boiling steam gushing out continuously.

Some women and children took basins and buckets to fetch well water to put out the fire. Everything was in good order. Although there were some screams, there was no chaos.

Fortunately, there was only one person left in the house, and no one was injured or killed after being rescued.

Soon the fire was put out, and Qiao Xian was carried to an open area. She was fed something, but she recovered after a while.

Li Xiying saw that her life was safe, glanced at her empty hands and began to look for her letter.

Just now, she seemed to have put the letter on the ground in order to save someone. When she was about to look for it along the way, a letter was delivered to her.

"Your letter?" Qiao Xian's face was covered in smoke and the letter in her hand was also covered in black fingerprints.

Li Xi took the letter and said, "Thank you very much."

Without making any comment, he turned around and left when he saw that the letter was intact.

"We don't owe each other anything. Don't think that I owe you a big favor just because you saved me. You haven't repaid the favor to my grandfather yet." Qiao Xian squinted at her and said proudly.

Even though it was Long Qi who did the favor, the person who was saved was actually her!

Li Xiying ignored her and left without saying another word.

How much is favor worth compared to life? She didn't bother to argue with him, she still had to find a way to solve the matter at hand.

Qiao Xian frowned and watched her leaving back, feeling even more embarrassed.

The weather is clear and the shadows of the trees are swaying.

On the way there, Li Xiqi heard Bahar's unclear conversation in the village hall.

I couldn't help but think: my daughter was on the verge of life and death over there, but my father was having a pleasant chat over here.

She looked around and realized that she was at the corridor and Bahar was in the hall, and when she got closer she found that Longqi was also there.

I don't know what Bahar said to him with a smile.

She was not one to eavesdrop, so she quickened her pace and was about to knock on the door when she heard Long Qi's straightforward tone.

Through the window, I saw him standing tall, looking up with a frown on his face as he said, "If he didn't like her, why would he risk his life to help her?"

"My dear, you are really infatuated. If you like her, why don't you express your feelings earlier? When she returns to Luoyang, will you still have a chance?" Bahar reminded her. He felt in his heart that the girl was a very smart woman. If he didn't catch her early, there might be complications and he would lose his chance.

"With so many things happening, I'm afraid she has no intention of getting married. So there's no rush." ​​Long Qi's eyes were clear and he was calm and composed.

"My dear, are you mourning for your biological mother... or are you afraid that the princess will know the sad news of the emperor's death? If it is the latter, my dear, are you afraid that she will not be able to accept it for a while, so you dare not mention it?" Bahar guessed that the latter reason must be the main one.

"She doesn't know the news of the emperor's death yet. This is also the intention of Prince Xian. But we can't hide it from her forever. She will know it after she goes to Luoyang." Long Qi thought that he had to find a chance to tell her.

Li Xixiao felt a tightness in her chest. The news was like a bolt from the blue, so shocking that she covered her mouth and nose in pain. She was unable to breathe and could not speak for a long time.

Grandpa...is dead...

“As for…” Before Long Qi finished speaking, he glanced at her from the corner of his eye. His expression froze, and he was obviously very surprised when he saw Li Xiying.

Did she hear everything?

The door and windows were wide open, and the wind blew her hair toward the tip of her slightly red nose.

He was about to explain something when Li Xiying suddenly turned around and left.

Long Qi immediately chased after her, but felt the wetness she left in the air.

She had to hurry back to Luoyang.

She was trembling with anger and grief.

She was angry and heartbroken as to why the traitor was so impatient to kill her grandfather, and why her fourth uncle colluded with others to hide it from her!

Fourth Uncle has already returned to Luoyang. No wonder he is not in a hurry to bring her back to Luoyang. He must want to explain everything before letting her go. How long does he want to keep it a secret from her?

Long Qi grabbed her slender wrist and suddenly pulled her into his broad arms.

Li Xiying crashed into her chest without warning, and she lost the strength to resist for a moment. His body temperature enveloped her body unscrupulously, trying to pull her back to her mood which had fallen to the bottom.

The next moment...she simply cried silently into his chest.

Long Qi felt sympathetic and hurriedly brushed her messy hair.

"I...I wanted to find a chance to tell you..."

After a while, she wiped away her tears silently, broke free from his arms, and said in a deep voice: "I don't blame you for hiding it. After all, I would have known about it even if I didn't go through you!"

But her grandfather died, and as a daughter, she was the last one to know about it. How ridiculous!

He spoke for a long time before uttering a word: "I..."

After a long time, she calmed down and blamed herself for not noticing the clues.

For so many days, she listened to her fourth uncle's words and never thought about returning to Luoyang earlier, thinking that her grandfather would not die at the hands of the thieves so soon that she would not be able to see him for the last time.

"I had originally planned to go back to Luoyang in the next few days. Now I don't need to confirm the time. I'm going back now."

"What are you going to do?" Long Qi asked.
