The Princess's Deadly Daily Life

Chapter 41 How about it, do you want to try it?

"is it?"

Li Xi's eyes were shining, which made him feel dazed and have an indescribable strange feeling, as if the purpose of her coming here was to leave the house.

Her smile must be from the heart. The curve of her mouth is so perfect on her face. It is as beautiful as a painting, but better than any painting. In short, it is pleasing to the eye.

"I knew I didn't save the wrong person that day." He said in a daze.

Li Xiying's smile froze, "???"

He came to his senses and explained, "That day you rescued my sister-in-law and brought her to shore, but you yourself sank. I was so worried that I jumped in to save you, and luckily nothing happened. I just said something out of turn. What I meant was that it was a good thing that you were rescued, otherwise wouldn't the world have lost a kind-hearted woman?"

"So it was you who saved me." Li Xiying suddenly realized and smiled again, bowing and saying, "I cannot thank you enough for your kindness, but I cannot repay you for this favor."

Cui Silang supported her falsely, "My lady, you are too kind."

Not far away, Long Qi was looking at the man and woman in the pavilion, especially Li Xiying's bright smile which was so eye-catching that he suddenly felt that his guess might be reversed. He frowned, abandoned the idea and left soon after.

Five quarters after noon.

Cui Silang led the two men, who had already dressed up, out of the mansion. The soldiers at the door thought they were Cui Silang's two male attendants and did not stop them.

After leaving the house, Li Xiying thanked him and was about to leave, but after taking two steps, he turned back and asked, "Aren't you afraid that I will run away?"

Cui Silang smiled brightly, "Don't be afraid."

"Okay, I'll be back before sunset, and I'll trouble you to pick me up then." She was wearing men's clothes, with her hair close to her scalp and tied in a bun on top of her head. Because her female appearance was too heavy, she padded her shoulders to make them wider and covered her forehead with a hat, but she still looked charming.

Cui Silang looked at her bright eyes and saw sincerity in them that lived up to his expectations.

"Of course." After Cui Silang said this, he watched the two of them leave and went to the chess club. A smile unconsciously appeared on his lips, and he just found it very interesting.

……

Li Xiying did not take Shanluo to wander around the streets.

This time I came out, firstly to help Shan Luo find a place to settle down, and secondly to try my luck. If I meet that little beggar again, I will definitely catch him and get to the bottom of the matter!

"Shanluo, what are you good at?"

"Ah?" Shan Luo looked confused, and after thinking for a while he answered truthfully, "I... my grandfather said I was bad at everything, cooking, washing clothes, sweeping the floor, feeding chickens, like a living person with a lost soul, nothing was satisfactory. But my grandmother said I was skillful, and I could make clothes tight even if they were torn."

"So, you are good at embroidery?" They happened to pass by an embroidery workshop, and after hearing what Shan Luo said, they wanted to take her in.

Unexpectedly, a fast horse galloped past them on the street, just passing behind them, creating a gust of wind that scared them. When they turned around, they saw that the horse had already gone far away.

The proprietress of the embroidery workshop stood at the door and sighed, saying that the express horse of the post station delivering official documents should not take this road.

Li Xiqi didn't know which way the fast horse should go, so she just pulled Shanluo into the embroidery workshop.

The proprietress saw two men dressed as servants coming and went to greet them. "Gentlemen, do you want to buy cloth or ready-made clothes, or embroidered screens, calligraphy and paintings, or pattern making? We can make anything. I guarantee you will be satisfied."

"No, Madam Boss, we are here to find a job." Li Xiying said sincerely.

The proprietress frowned and seemed a little surprised when she heard the woman's voice. Then she took a closer look and saw that they were just two women!

"Oh, what kind of embroidery do you know?"

Li Xiying glanced at Shanluo. She looked confused and it seemed that she could only sew patches on weekdays.

Shan Luo saw that Li Xiying was also looking at her, so she continued, "I don't understand, but I can learn."

The lady boss looked at her and thought she was just looking for work at such a young age. Like most embroiderers here, she had families to support. "Let me be clear, there is no salary for learning. After all, I have to put in a lot of effort to teach you. The village often rushes to make batches of ordinary ready-made clothes or purses and sachets. Embroidery is simple, so you can only get paid after you learn it. But the salary for simple embroidery is not high, and the more you do, the more you get."

"Are food and accommodation provided?" Li Xiying asked.

The lady boss said, "For simple embroidery work, food and accommodation are provided. For embroiderers who have been embroidering for more than five years, their embroidery techniques are flexible and varied, and they can embroider Buddha statues, paintings of ladies, landscapes and courtesans... Not only are food and accommodation provided, but the wages are also generous."

All the embroiderers in the hall were busy with their embroidery work, and the embroidered fabrics were of various kinds and varieties.

Li Xixiao pulled Shanluo, who was dazzled by what she saw, and asked, "How about it? Do you want to try it?"

Shan Luo nodded, "I'll follow my wife's instructions."

Li Xiying shook her head and whispered, "No, it's up to you. If you are used to it, then stay. If you are not used to it, then leave. Don't force yourself. What do you think?"

Shan Luo nodded again, with twinkling eyes, "Don't worry, my lady, I will study hard."

The lady boss brought two pieces of embroidery cloth and said, "Here, if you don't know anything, follow Lady Xu and start from the purse."

The two of them took the embroidery cloth and sat in a corner of the hall, and began to listen to Xu Xiu Niang's instructions. After learning how to start stitching, they began to embroider from the simplest braid embroidery method that Xu Xiu Niang had taught them.

She didn't notice that the man on the horse that had just galloped away was holding a letter in his hand. In less than a quarter of an hour, he dismounted and handed the letter to Li Zhen.

Li Xun had left Anyifang long ago. He had been to several brothels, and only one of them said that a woman had indeed escaped from the brothel, but she had been redeemed by Han Qi, the son of Han Wei.

Just when he was about to go find Han Qi first, the hidden guard came on horseback and said that he had intercepted a letter from the villa and that he should give it to him as soon as possible.

Walking on the street, he wondered what the contents of the letter meant.

It is more like a painting than a letter. There are fallen leaves, sunset, loess, and guest houses in the painting. There is a cicada painted at the signature. It must be sent by Li Xi. The painting is a mess, and it makes people feel more depressed when they see it because they can't guess the meaning.

He then put it away and planned to rush to the villa first to ask the grandmothers and maids who had served Xi Xi if they knew what the meaning was and why she escaped without writing any useful information to ask someone to pick her up.

After much thought, the only explanation for doing this is that she doesn't want to go back.

Before I knew it, I had arrived at the gate of Prince Liang's Mansion. The magnificent building with flying eaves and brackets was built with great effort and was even more magnificent than the imperial palace. How ironic.

Now that the national treasury is empty, this crude and uncouth man is living a very comfortable life!

The soldiers outside the door were burly, while the soldiers inside were extremely ferocious, and rough laughter could be heard from time to time.

Just as I came to my senses, I saw someone coming from far away and throwing a woman out of the door like trash.

The woman's clothes were in disarray and she was covered in blood, but her profile could still be vaguely seen. Her eyes were filled with hatred, but it gradually faded away.

More and more people gathered around, most of them just to watch the fun. No one came to help her, and the blood on the ground was seeping more and more. She was afraid that if no one took care of her, she would die.

A doctor has a kind heart, even a woman whose life is despised and insignificant to anyone.

He stepped forward to feel her pulse, and after confirming that there were still signs of life, he took her away for treatment in full view of everyone.

Immediately afterwards, a noblewoman wearing a thick cloak and with a pale face came out from the Liang Wang Mansion behind her, carefully supported by someone.

"Madam, please go in quickly or you will catch a cold!" Just as the maidservant beside her was about to remind her, Prince Liang came out and carried the staggering madam in.

Madam Liang was stunned for a moment, and she buried her head in his broad arms to calm down a little. She slowly said, "My husband has always managed his subordinates like an arm, but I also hope that they can restrain themselves. If innocent lives are hurt, the people will have to blame you for the crime."

"Madam is right. I will definitely punish them today. Madam, take care of your health and don't work too hard." As he said this, he carried her to the couch in the room. Looking at her lifeless face, he was stunned for a moment and then frowned. "Madam, you have become thinner after not seeing you for two days. When I finish the things I have on hand, I will definitely stay at home with you every day." As he said this, he tucked the quilt into her.

"Hui has always known that my husband has great ambitions and they are not achieved overnight. As the saying goes, one should be loyal to the emperor. How could I demand that my husband stay at home with me every day?" Xing Duoduo said a few words and couldn't help coughing lightly.

Whenever she got sick in the past two years, her hands and feet would become cold even before the weather got cold. Prince Liang took her cold hands, put them on her neck to warm them, and said, "Madam is right. Have a good rest. I'll stay with you for a while."

Zhang Hui stroked his handsome face, and they looked at each other with happiness in their eyes.
