The Princess's Deadly Daily Life

The groom was startled when he heard the sound. He had never expected that there was a woman behind him! He pulled the reins tightly. The horse was not moving fast, so it should have stopped quickly after pulling the reins. However, the horse suddenly neighed and ran forward like crazy, as if it wanted to get rid of the reins and fly into the clouds.

Li Xi's veiled hat was blown off by the gust of wind and fell to the ground, flying quickly away with dust.

Her pale little face was exposed to the wind. A grain of sand blew into her eyes. The stinging sensation made it difficult for her to open them. She rubbed her eyes unconsciously. Due to the sudden and violent inertia, one of her hands slipped and she fell into the car.

At this time, the carriage was shaking abnormally. The two people in the carriage noticed the abnormality and heard the woman's voice. Long Qi pulled open the curtain, and a woman in white closed her eyes and fell backwards due to weight loss, and happened to fall into his arms. At this moment, it seemed that the air had solidified into frost, and even the ups and downs of her breathing became very abrupt.

She only felt that someone caught her, and she was leaning against that person's chest. Well... it was hard, not as soft as the maid's chest, but it was strong and powerful, with a faint smell similar to ambergris filling her nose. If she closed her eyes and felt it, it would feel quite refreshing.

There was no room for a grain of sand in the eyes. As the tears flowed out, the sand that hurt the eyes was washed away. When he opened his eyes, he met the eyes of the owner of the chest.

The pair of slightly annoyed eyes reflected in her pupils. The man's pupils were ink-black. She had seen many eunuchs with brown eyes, but not as black as this one. It was as black as shining obsidian, and more like the starry sky in the middle of the night with a faint halo.

He had a high nose bridge, red lips, white teeth, and skin that was as smooth as a baby's. If it weren't for his strong and angular facial features and the hard area on his chest that proved that he was a real man, she would have thought he was a peerless and independent beauty just by looking at his skin.

He looked at Li Xiying's tearful face, and suddenly his eyes fixed, only to hear the neighing of horses getting louder and louder through the sky.

The wall of the car was still shaking. He waved his arm and pushed Li Xiying aside, saying, "I'll go out and take a look." Before she sat down, he lifted the curtain and went out.

She knew that these words were addressed to the purple-robed official in the car.

Li Xiying felt the seat and sat down. It was difficult for her to maintain her balance in the strong bumps. The carriage was moving very fast, sometimes leaning to the left, sometimes leaning to the right, as if it would overturn at any time.

The official frowned and stood still like a mountain.

There were constant screams from pedestrians near the car.

She leaned against the wall of the carriage, and just as it was about to overturn, the carriage gradually straightened up as the horses' neighing slowed down, and then slowly stopped.

Li Xiwei pulled open the curtain and could only see the trembling backs of the man and the groom. She could not see the condition of the horse, but she was sure that it was safe.

After calming down, he turned his head to look at the middle-aged man in purple with a square face and thick beard. No wonder he was so fearless in the face of danger. With such a person protecting him by his side, he could probably remain calm even if Mount Tai collapsed in front of him.

I thought that according to the laws of the Tang Dynasty, one had to be at least a third-rank official to wear purple. If it was as I guessed, he was probably a capable official close to my grandfather, so reminding him of this dangerous situation would be a great accomplishment.

In order to avoid misunderstanding, she decided to explain herself before leaving.

"Your horse was poisoned, so..."

"So you fell into my nephew's arms?" The prime minister looked at her, his eyes drooping but sharp and bright, as if he could see through a young girl in love.

"what?"

At a moment like this, shouldn't we express our gratitude beyond words?

Thank her... uh...

It seems like nothing was accomplished...

After all, it was she who got into the car rashly; she rashly fell into their car; she rashly fell into his nephew's arms... just like a frightened horse, she didn't know the reason.

All in all, it is really annoying that a well-intentioned reminder was interpreted as a deliberate act by a girl in love.

But the strange thing is that, from an objective point of view, what he said makes sense.

When she came up to remind the horse, the horse had not yet gone wild with fright, so she could have used the word "stop"; but when she came up, the horse had already gone wild with fright, so did it mean that she did it on purpose?

There's no way around having to argue any more, so it's best not to leave.

Li Xixiao silently raised his wrist to the edge of the curtain and made a final explanation to the minister. "I wanted to remind you before the horse's poison took effect, so that you and the passers-by could avoid an accident. Who would have thought that the horse suddenly went crazy and I fell in without holding on... But fortunately, no one was hurt along the way, which is fortunate..."

If you were not an idiot, you would have understood what she meant.

She paused, her eyes slightly turned: "Since everyone is safe and there is nothing else to do, I should leave first."

As Li Xiying spoke, she stood up and walked out. Just as she was about to push aside the curtain, she actually touched the man's cold knuckles.

She drew her fingers back as if they had touched thorns.

That hand with well-proportioned flesh and bones, as delicate as white jade, long and radiant with a healthy sheen, he took the opportunity to push aside the curtain, and the entire carriage suddenly became much brighter.

Long Qi stood by the curtain and looked at her indifferently, trying to see through her intentions. His voice was pleasant, but his tone was unfriendly. "Who poisoned her?"

Li Xiying knew his attitude. He obviously thought she was the one who cried thief and it was a misunderstanding, but she was not ashamed or angry.

"The person who drugged him has already escaped. He is just a skinny beggar of about ten years old. It is obvious whether he is the mastermind." Then she continued to the purple robe, "As for who you offended, you can find out by yourselves. After all, it is not difficult for you to catch the murderer with your ability, right?"

She turned to hold the door frame, lifted her skirt and stuck her head out. Just as she was about to take the next step, she was blocked by the figure: "In this case, how are you going to prove your innocence?"

Li Xiying took a deep breath and smiled: "I am innocent, why should I prove myself? You are making a kind-hearted person like me feel disappointed!"

At this moment, he cursed his ancestors in his heart and decided that the best solution was to run away.

"I'm afraid you want to escape?" His dark eyes did not blink, as if they were just a cold decoration on his face, without any ripples.

"Yes, I am a weak woman, how dare I offend the powerful? Naturally, whatever you say is what I do, and I dare not refute it." Li Xiying turned around and sat back in her seat, looking at the purple-robed minister, her expression neither humble nor arrogant.

Long Qi sneered: "How did you climb up here when the carriage was moving without any strength?"

"So what?..." Li Xiying didn't know why he wouldn't let go. Maybe it was because the situation today was very dangerous and he couldn't... explain unless he caught the culprit?

Long Qi said calmly: "Of course it is up to the Prime Minister to decide. He will be detained and interrogated!"

"..."

Unfortunately, there are too few martial arts experts around Grandpa. Those who have some skills have all gone to fight in the "war", and even a low-level fighter is scarce in the palace.

If I could learn a few tricks, I wouldn't be so frustrated and controlled by others!

Suddenly she realized that she was trapped in the carriage. Although she didn't want to admit it, it was obvious that they were not willing to let her go easily.

So you got into a fight with her?

"Aqi." The purple-robed official spoke, then looked at Li Xiying again, his emotions undetectable, "The culprit has not been caught yet, so my nephew can only invite you to cooperate with the investigation for the time being."

The prime minister naturally believed that the woman in front of him was not the culprit. After all, he had been ambushed many times since the power of the vassal kings reached its peak, and now the people all hated him to the core. However, it was unexpected that this woman dared to come up and give him a warning.

"Cooperate with the investigation?..." He just used a less rude word. You just have to go with them!
