The Princess's Deadly Daily Life

At dawn, just as Li Xiqi had finished washing and dressing, someone came to inform her that the prime minister's wife had recovered from her illness and wanted to invite her to enjoy the flowers.

How did the lady know where she lived? Could it be that she had already found out her identity?

Did he say that?

With a skeptical attitude, he followed the reporter out of the house, wanting to say hello to his fourth uncle, but he was not there either. So he had to order people to wait for him to come back and explain to him the reason for leaving the house.

No matter what she asked along the way, the messenger did not say a word, but just gestured for her to follow. Li Xixuan then realized that she had never seen this maid with her wife before. She was wondering why she had deviated from the route, and then she realized that she had arrived at a place where few people had been.

The walls of the village were broken, the houses collapsed, the ground was covered with carbon-black wood, mud and rotten tiles, and the air was filled with a musty smell due to years of disrepair and lack of management.

Li Xixiao looked at her warily, wondering whether she was sent by the prime minister's wife or not.

The maid turned and looked at her with a smile, her eyes were cold and creepy.

"Why don't you continue to lead the way?" Li Xiying asked knowingly, wanting her to reveal her intention in person.

She just kept talking to herself: "How could he recognize that I was not you at first sight? Isn't this face similar enough?"

Li Xiying didn't understand what she meant and frowned. She watched her picking at the skin behind her ear. Soon a layer of skin was peeled off. After a while, she took the skin and put it back in her pocket.

Only then did he discover with surprise that she actually knew how to change her appearance. Her cheeks under that layer of skin were white and flawless, her eyes and eyebrows were smiling, and she looked even more charming and beautiful than the original owner.

"Now look at it, what's different about them?" She pursed her lips and moved closer, putting her face closer.

Li Xi did not step back. Seeing her with such familiar eyebrows and eyes, she felt that she had never seen such a person before and would never see such a person again. This was the first time in her life that she had seen someone paint a face that looked so real. But seeing her with her own face and making such messy expressions made her angry. She asked directly, "Who are you? What is your purpose?"

She snorted coldly and said slowly: "I'll give you a chance to speak, but if you don't, you won't even have the chance to speak in the future!"

As she said this, she was about to pinch Li Xiying's chin, but Li Xiying dodged. In anger, she chopped Li Xiying's neck with a knife.

The sharp wind whistled in my ears and there was no way to avoid it. At the moment of blocking, a person jumped out from the darkness in time and knocked the impostor away.

This secret guard appeared for the second time and saved people from danger in a very timely manner. Li Xiying looked at his back and his gratitude was beyond words. This time he must see what this master looks like and also want to become his disciple!

The imposter obviously did not expect that there was such a master beside Li Xiying. Knowing the disparity in strength and fearing to be hit again, she immediately rolled up her skirt and ran away.

When the secret guard saw that the princess was out of danger, he didn't plan to chase her.

Li Xi quickly grabbed the secret guard who was about to disappear, not wanting him to hide and conceal his merits and fame.

The secret guard lowered his head and eyes, not daring to make any big moves. After retreating a little distance, Li Xiying still saw his face clearly. Even with his head lowered, because his height covered her head, she could still see the secret guard's appearance clearly. He had thick eyebrows, thick lips, dark skin, and looked to be around 20 years old. Just now, she felt that his arm was very strong. He was a very good martial artist!

She had seldom seen such a dark complexion. The last time she saw this kind of complexion was when she saw some nobles carrying it with them on the street. People called it a Kunlun slave. Could he also be a so-called Kunlun slave?

The secret guard didn't know why she coveted him. He could feel the princess's shining eyes, but he didn't dare to look at her. He only heard her ask: "Where did you learn martial arts? Can you teach me?"

As the only secret guard beside Li Xuan, he worked diligently day and night and had long been accustomed to keeping silent and waiting for orders. Now hearing the princess talking to him like this, he didn't know how to answer and just shook his head.

"Can't you teach me?" Li Xiying looked disappointed, then curiously asked, "As a secret guard, do you have to hide in the dark for twelve hours a day? Do you need to eat and sleep like this? Do you have to hide in the dark all day long to protect your master? Don't you have any self-esteem?"

The secret guard was confused by the question. It would be bad not to answer, so he just nodded.

Li Xi was shocked. "What about eating, drinking, defecating and urinating? And have you married? Do you have children? If so, how will you take care of your family?"

The secret guard had never answered so many questions in his life. A blush appeared on his dark cheeks, which was dark and red, but not very obvious. He tried to avoid it, but still spoke: "Your Highness, I have no family, only a master."

After saying this, he disappeared without giving her a chance to ask any more questions.

Li Xiying listened to his reply with a special accent, and reluctantly shouted towards his hiding place: "Thank you!"

For a long time, the only sound was the chirping of birds flying overhead.

My thoughts raced. Who on earth was that woman? Why did she disguise herself as me? What was her purpose?

She racked her brains but couldn't figure out these questions. She had come into contact with too many different people during this period, but most of them were related to the Prime Minister's Mansion. If the people in the Prime Minister's Mansion were excluded, then it would be Prince Liang. But Prince Liang probably didn't have the leisure time to do that. There was no need for him to change masks and kill her like this.

She sorted out her thoughts again, thinking about the series of things she had encountered since she came to Chang'an from Zhuangzi and then left the palace.

But she really couldn't think of it!

By chance, a stone hit the bird, and the bird fell down with its wings flapping. A child ran over and picked up the bird. He was very happy. After seeing Li Xiying, he was surprised and asked, "Sister, why are you here?"

Li Xiqie was pulled back from his thoughts by the child, and then he realized that this place was not far from the little beggar's residence, and this child was the little beggar.

Thinking of the promise she made to him, she wondered if Cui Silang had kept it. Seeing that the little beggar was still dirty and his clothes were tattered, she asked with a guilty conscience, "It's you. How is your grandmother?"

He ran around her with a smile on his face, and said excitedly, "Grandma is on the bed. She drank the medicine and is much better now, but she can't get out of bed yet. Today is a really good day. Not only did we catch a bird and have meat to eat, but our benefactor sister also came to visit us. I'm so happy!"

Li Xi looked at him dancing with joy, still wearing ragged clothes, and felt a little sad. She had not fulfilled her promise and had forgotten about it. This was wrong! But from what he said, Cui Silang should have treated his grandmother.

She thought that although she didn't have any money, she was still wearing jewelry, so she took off her earrings, hairpins, and placed them in his palm. "You can use these to exchange for money to buy some clothes and pots and pans. This should be enough. This is all I have for now. Please give my regards to your grandmother."
