The Princess's Deadly Daily Life

Seeing that he was staring at "Xi Xi", the Prime Minister's wife coughed gently again as a reminder.

The housekeeper at the side said angrily, "I was blinded by greed at the beginning. I felt sorry for this girl who lost her parents and had a young brother to support, so I begged Madam to take her in as a maid. It's not even two years now, and who would have thought that such a disaster would happen!"

The maid kowtowed and said, "I won't dare to do it again!"

Long Qi still looked at "Xi Xuan", who calmly ignored him, but there was a hint of pleading in her eyes: "Madam, there are some things I shouldn't say. If I say them, it will be suspected of interfering in other people's affairs, but I still want to give you some advice for your reference."

The lady's eyes softened as she gestured, "Just tell me."

Xi Xuan nodded and said, "Since this maid has realized her mistake, why not drive her out of the house? Fortunately, she has no intention of killing anyone. She is just jealous and has no intention of threatening your life. Madam, please spare her life for the sake of your favor, right?"

After hearing this, the lady raised her eyebrows and looked at her, her confused expression changing to one of disbelief.

Xi Xi went on to explain, "Madam, think about it, she took out the antidote for the poison the first time you were poisoned last time, which means she didn't want to kill you. I also asked the doctor, and this kind of poison can be cured as long as the antidote is taken, so I believe she must have her reasons for doing so."

Madam's frown relaxed and she patted her hands. "You are a kind-hearted child. You actually put yourself in her shoes. But even if she doesn't want to kill me, she is guilty of framing me. We can't just let this go."

Xi Xi said, "Then let's sell it. What do you think?"

The lady nodded hesitantly, "In that case, I will spare her life and sell her!"

"Thank you, Madam. Thank you, Miss Li!" The maidservant knelt on the ground with her head down, hovering on the line between life and death for a while, and was so moved that she burst into tears.

"Wait." Long Qi said, glancing at the maid who was stunned on the ground, "She didn't mean to kill anyone, but she did kill people. This punishment is too light. If everyone in the mansion is like this, then how low would the price of harming people be? It's better to let the county lieutenant judge directly and let her suffer the consequences. This is the most fair for the servants in the mansion."

After hearing this, the lady hesitated for a while and felt that it made sense, but she was inexplicably tempted to see Xi Xi's reaction.

The tears on Xi Ying's face had been wiped away. She opened her lips slightly and continued slowly, "My dear, you should have heard what grandma said just now. She has a younger brother and her parents died early. If she is gone, what will happen to her younger brother? They could have depended on each other, but now they have lost their only relative. How pitiful it must be."

Long Qi, however, said in a rather sarcastic tone: "Today's play of sacrificing the pawn to save the king was well performed..."

Xi Xi said: "I don't understand, what does it mean to sacrifice the rook to save the king?"

Seeing that Long Qi's words were becoming more and more strange and pointed, the lady stopped him from continuing and sighed, "Aqi, stop talking nonsense. It's all right, fortunately no big mistake has been made, so let's compromise and just beat him out of the house."

After saying this, the lady winked at grandma, who then ordered two male servants to drag him away.

She held up her tired eyelids and asked Long Qi, "What is the matter with Aqi?"

Long Qi glanced at Xi Ying and said meaningfully, "I heard that Madam Li took advantage of her uncle's absence to come to the mansion again, so I came to take a look."

Seeing Xi Xuan's expression change, the lady tried to smooth things over by saying, "What do you mean by taking advantage of your uncle's absence? The truth has been revealed. She was wrongly accused, and you are also a witness. Please don't say such hurtful things."

Xi Xi waved his hands and said, "Forget it. I am not welcome here. I will leave. I only came here to check on Madam because I was worried about her health. It seems that I am meddling too much."

Long Qi narrowed his eyes, as if he had seen through her: "What a coincidence, the maid poisoned the mistress and was caught..."

The lady no longer had the heart to argue with them, and continued, "Hey, listening to you talk gives me a headache. I think it's not a big deal to keep Xiying for dinner. Go and do your thing. I have something to talk to her about."

Seeing that the lady trusted her so much, Long Qi didn't know what to say.

Take the treatment of that maid as an example. In the past, my aunt had the ability to distinguish right from wrong and would definitely not listen to an outsider. This shows how special she is in my aunt's mind, so special that she is willing to listen to her opinions on everything.

Even though things are so strange today, it is difficult to uncover the truth.

When he turned to leave, she said sarcastically, "Knowing the truth but being unable to reveal it, isn't this the most painful thing, ma'am?"

The lady nodded and smiled: "Fortunately, I always believed in you."

After hearing this, Long Qi couldn't do anything to her.

After he left, she turned around and sighed slightly.

The lady took her hand and said, "If you have anything bothering you, just tell me."

She nodded. "My parents wrote to me these past few days, asking me if I must stay in Chang'an and not return home. I don't want to go back, and I can't tell you why, but I... just can't bear to leave."

The lady's eyes were reddened by what she said, and she patted her hands and said, "A girl must get married eventually. Even if she doesn't return home, she still has a long way to go in life. How pitiful and lonely it is to be alone. It's better to find a satisfactory husband in Chang'an, which can be considered a perfect life."

She nodded and bit her lower lip. "If that's the case, I'd rather find someone to marry here. If I can be closer to you, I can come and see you occasionally."

"You are actually thinking about me. I said that although we are not mother and daughter, our relationship is better than that of mother and daughter." The lady's eyes flickered slightly. She spoke softly as if she was treating her own child, and then looked at her eyebrows, "If you were my daughter, how could I bear to see you marry poorly? You must have not thought it through last time, so this time I will shamelessly ask you, since you have chosen a man from outside, why not see if there is anyone you like in the mansion? If you marry, everyone will be happy."

She hesitated for a moment, then nodded shyly.

The lady smiled, took her hand and said, "We only met once at the last banquet, so it must be difficult for you to make a decision. I will ask those children to come for tea tomorrow, and if you like him, you can pour tea for him, how about that?"

When she lowered her head shyly, she didn't know that the lady had been looking at her eyebrows carefully several times.

The lady closed her eyes deeply and then opened them again, looking at her brows again, "Where is the mole between your eyebrows?" She seemed to be questioning whether she was having a nightmare or not, she couldn't believe it.

Xi Xuan raised her hand and touched her brow bone, panicking. After thinking for a while, she said, "Mole? Madam, you have looked carefully. The mole on my face... the mole on my face... Madam, you don't know that this mole has been disappearing and appearing since birth, and it will reappear when it gets warmer."

"How can there be such a mole?" the lady wondered.

She calmed herself down and smiled, "It's a little cold today. Maybe it was more obvious last time because the weather was warmer."

The lady remained silent, feeling lost.
