The Princess's Deadly Daily Life

After folding the letter, it was already light outside. I changed my clothes and stuffed the letter into my sleeve, thinking that I should deliver it myself.

Suddenly realizing that she would need money to send a letter, she took off her purse and looked inside. There was not a single coin left, only one tael of silver! How could there be so much less?

It must have fallen into the lake when I was rescuing people yesterday. That gold is not a string, it must be easier to fall than copper coins!

"Knock, knock, knock..." The sound of knocking on the door was accompanied by the voice of the maid, "Madam, are you awake?"

"Come in." Li Xiying stood by the window, put away the purse, and slightly adjusted his black hair in front of the bronze mirror on the table, thinking that one string of money should be enough?

"My dear, our wife has given birth. She asked me to tell you that she is not feeling well, otherwise she would have come to thank you in person." The maid said happily.

"Then congratulations, but there's no need to thank me. I didn't seem to have saved her, and instead got myself involved." If her grandfather knew about this, she would definitely be scolded.

"Don't say that. If you hadn't remained calm in the face of danger and asked me to go to the main hall to call for help, I'm afraid... I'm afraid..."

Seeing the maid's red eyes, Li Xi was most displeased and said, "Tell Madam that I'll be back soon after I go out to deliver a letter. If the matter of the horse's sudden death yesterday is investigated, I will definitely come back to cooperate to the end."

"Yes, I'll go right away. But are you fully recovered?" The maid nodded, then said hesitantly and worriedly.

"Don't worry, I'm fine now, I just need a veil."

The maid nodded and ran out of the room.

Now that there are more people in the mansion, the lady must be happily holding her little grandson and entertaining him, and she certainly has no time to care about her.

She packed up everything and just stepped out of the room when the maid in green clothes came again. She paused and said to her, "Madam, our mistress said you can go now."

Who blames her for getting involved in this mess? Now, it is inevitable that she needs to notify and get approval before leaving someone else's house.

"A veil?"

She said, "Someone will bring it."

Not long after, a maid with a bun on her head brought a veil hat. After she put it on and walked out of the mansion, Li Xiying realized that it was not that simple.

The maid followed behind him in small, unhurried steps. After receiving Li Xi's suspicious look, she said awkwardly, "Madam was worried that you didn't have enough money, so she sent me to follow you. First, I am more familiar with the roads here than you are, and secondly... secondly..."

Seeing the maid's nervous and at a loss for words, she said disapprovingly, "If you want to follow me, just follow me. I'm not familiar with the terrain here, so it will save me some effort if you lead the way."

"By the way, are you the Madam's maid? Do you know anything about the poisoned horse incident? Is there any progress now?" Li Xiqi said boredly.

The maid shook her head. "My name is Yueji, and I specialize in purchasing. I don't know the progress you mentioned, but everyone in the mansion knows about your case. Madam, don't worry. The prime minister will definitely send someone to investigate and clear your name."

Listening to her comfort, Li Xiying did not feel relieved. She was not in a hurry to prove her innocence, but she wanted to see whether the man called Qilangjun would dig a hole in the ground and crawl into it after knowing the truth, and whether he would dare to slander others without reason in the future.

"Nothing, I was just asking."

In a blink of an eye, I arrived at this familiar street again. It was on this street that I was hit by the beggar yesterday. I even saw him run away on his poisoned horse with my own eyes.

She looked around, thinking that the little beggar couldn't show up so soon, or else he would be dead if caught. Even if he didn't know the consequences of murdering a prime minister, the person behind the scenes should know the consequences.

Suddenly, I felt a chill down my spine. Would the person behind this want to kill this little beggar?

Interrupting the speculation, the maid pointed to the guest house after being away from that street for a long time, "Madam, this is it."

Li Xixiao looked at a waiter coming out and asked, "Would you like to stay at the hotel or have a meal and rest?"

"We are here to send a letter." The maid pointed to the sign on the guesthouse that said 'delivering a letter'.

There were only a few lines of small characters: a hundred miles in radius was five strings of copper coins, two hundred miles in radius was three taels of gold, three hundred miles in radius was five taels of gold, five hundred miles in radius was ten taels of gold, six hundred miles in radius was twelve taels of gold, and the maximum amount of gold for eight hundred miles was twenty taels of gold.

The starting price was five strings of copper coins, so ordinary people couldn’t afford it.

It is about 600 miles from Chang'an to Luoyang. The twelve gold coins are equivalent to seventy-two strings of coins if converted into copper coins, which is equivalent to seventy thousand coins and weighs five hundred kilograms of copper coins. How many plates of roasted mutton can it exchange for?

It's really too extravagant to just send a letter like this. Forget it, I won't send it, besides, she only has one!

Li Xixiao paused and put the letter he was about to take out into his sleeves.

The waiter made a standard gesture of invitation and said, "Sir, please come in and write down your request and the contract. Our messengers are very reputable and we guarantee that the letter or item will be delivered to the designated location intact."

Without money, how could I send a letter? The only hairpin on my head was pawned to the owner of Yongfu Guesthouse, and the remaining one tael of silver was far from enough. Could I really expect this maid to make up for it? This was not a small amount, she definitely didn't bring that much! Besides, I was too grateful to the person who gave me the money, so why did I owe so much money for no reason?

Li Xi smiled awkwardly, "I suddenly remembered that there are some things I haven't mentioned in the letter. I'll go back and add some to it before I come back."

"This..." The waiter scratched his head. The lady in front of him did not look like an ordinary person. She was dressed in brocade and silk. Although she had no jewelry to embellish her, she had an excellent temperament. She could not be someone who was short of money. Even if she did not bring any money, he could send someone to her house to get it, so that the lady would not have to run back and forth.

Then he added, "There is a guest room inside with pens, ink, paper and inkstone. Madam can go in and think while writing."

"Yes, my lady, it takes half an hour to go back and forth. Why not just finish writing it inside? Isn't that wonderful?"

At this moment, Yueji beside her added a sentence in time, which made Li Xiying want to scratch the wall for her.

"Forehead……"

At this moment, Li Xi was neither going forward nor backward. Just as she was about to explain the situation to Yue Ji in a low voice, she heard someone talking to them...

"If my guess is correct, you didn't bring that much cash, did you? I'll pay for this young lady's expenses."

At some point, a man suddenly appeared beside him. He was as tall as Li Xiying, with a red face and the smell of alcohol could be smelled from afar. At this moment, he burped and came out of the guest house, fanning the remaining smell from his mouth with a folding fan in a very ostentatious manner.

"No need, I don't want to send it, thank you. Let's go." Li Xiying whispered to Yueji beside her, turned around and left.

Yueji had never seen such a scene before, and followed Li Xiying in a daze.

"Hey, what are you thanking me for? It's just a letter. You don't have money, but I have plenty. I just saw that the young lady has a slim figure and must be very beautiful... Wouldn't it be a pity if I don't help this perfect fate?"

The man stood in front of him, glanced at the maid, and then looked intently at Li Xiying. The next moment, the fan lifted the veil, his expression was dazed, and he couldn't move his eyes away.

Li Xixuan avoided him and adjusted her veil.
