After rebirth, the Queen of Madness has gone against the will of Heaven

Chapter 248 Mei Hong's Opportunity

Murong Feng was in high spirits, and after venting his emotions once, he had no intention of stopping. He sat on the chair, like a king looking down from above, and looked proudly at Mei Hong, who had already collapsed and was sitting against the wall.

"Come here! Serve me!"

Murong Feng's order was unquestionable, and Mei Hong dragged her aching body and crawled over.

Murong Feng suddenly grabbed Mei Hong's hair and said rudely, "Bitch, you're also attracted by my status, right? That's why you serve me so recklessly, right?"

Meihong's scalp was hurt by the pulling, but she couldn't say a word.

Murong Feng didn't really want to hear Mei Hong's answer. After venting his anger, he put on his clothes and glanced at Mei Hong. "Tomorrow, the emperor will arrange for you to enter the palace."

"Thank you, Your Highness..."

Mei Hong struggled to get up and salute, but was coldly rejected by Murong Feng, "No need, just take a good rest."

Taking advantage of the night, Murong Feng left Yu Mansion. If it weren't for the bruises and pain on her body, Mei Hong would almost think that everything that had just happened was just a dream.

Moonlight poured through the window frame, and Mei Hong couldn't help but shed tears. Even though she knew that she was just a tool for Murong Feng to satisfy his desires, she still wanted to climb up at all costs. Only by standing by his side could she get rid of her humble status.

What's more, she really fell in love with the man who was always superior to her. She believed that man would not always be so unknown. One day, he would stand in a high position and look down on the crowd.

This night was a night full of opportunities for Mei Hong, an opportunity given to her by God.

The next morning, the weather was a little gloomy. Yu Qingli woke up from her sleep and saw the slightly unfamiliar palace when she opened her eyes.

She was a little dazed for a moment, and when she came to her senses, she had already married Murong Feng and was now in the eldest prince's Ju'an Palace.

Yu Qingli felt a little heavy on her body, and turned her head to look. A small body was tightly clasping her waist, and the whole person was curled up in her arms. She couldn't help laughing. This child... But last night, thanks to his help, when she thought about it carefully, could this be a trick of Murong Yanhui?

"Miss, are you up yet?"

A familiar voice suddenly woke Yu Qingli up. She turned her head and saw the face that made her so disgusted.

It’s Meihong!

It was still that round face, and still with that seemingly innocent smile, the dimples on her cheeks were faintly visible, and seemed to have a hint of pride.

Yu Qingli was silent for a moment, but she was not too surprised. She just felt it was ridiculous. It turned out that she had guessed wrong. She thought Murong Feng would at least be patient for a few days, but she didn't expect that he would bring Mei Hong into the palace so soon.

"Miss, I'm sorry. Meihong didn't mean to enter the palace without permission. Please don't be angry."

Seeing Yu Qingli was silent, Mei Hong quickly started to explain. Yu Qingli said calmly, "I'm not angry. It's good that you can come to the palace. I just entered the palace and it's inevitable that I will feel lonely. You have followed me for many years. Having you by my side to serve me is naturally much better than those palace maids I don't know."

"It seems that Qingli and I are of the same mind."

Murong Feng's voice, like a spring breeze, made the gloomy sky seem a little brighter. Yu Qingli looked up. Murong Feng was dressed in a light blue brocade robe, looking very elegant. He walked briskly with a smile on his face. He walked to Yu Qingli's side and took the eyebrow pencil from her hand. "Qingli, how about letting me draw your eyebrows for you today?"

Yu Qingli was stunned. Was Murong Feng trying to make peace with her?

Seeing this, Mei Hong at the side could not help but lower her eyes to hide the jealousy in her eyes. Even after entering the palace, could she still not compare to the young lady?

One day, she will legitimately stand beside the eldest prince and be on equal footing with the young lady!

Yu Qingli saw Mei Hong's jealous face in the bronze mirror and couldn't help but smile. She said softly, "Thank you, Your Highness. I'll be in your good graces today."

Murong Feng took the eyebrow pencil and carefully drew eyebrows for Yu Qingli. His technique was skillful and it seemed that he often did this for women. Yu Qingli frowned. Could it be that besides Mei Hong, Murong Feng had other women he loved?

Yu Qingli had no idea that Murong Feng appeared to be well-dressed and a gentle gentleman, but in fact, he was as lustful as his father Murong Shiling. He often visited brothels and sometimes, when he was in the mood, he would draw eyebrows and do lipstick on the girls there, and regarded it as a pleasure in the boudoir.

After a moment, Murong Feng whispered, "Okay."

Yu Qingli opened her eyes and saw herself in the bronze mirror. Her eyebrows were as dark as distant ink, her eyes were like stars, and she looked very clear.

Especially the brushstrokes used in drawing the eyebrows are thick and the ink is just right, neither too light nor too heavy, which looks very beautiful.

"Your Highness's technique is truly superb." Yu Qingli praised.

Murong Feng smiled gently, "Qingli's eyebrows are naturally beautiful. Even without ink, they are already beautiful and elegant."

Yu Qingli's cheeks flushed, as if she was a little shy, but a chill suddenly rose in her heart. Why had she been so fond of such sweet talk in her previous life? Perhaps he had said many of the same things to Mei Hong?

"Qingli, are you really not unhappy that your Highness has called Meihong here?"

Murong Feng suddenly spoke, with a hint of testing in his tone.

Yu Qingli feigned confusion as she turned her head and met Murong Feng's eyes. "Your Highness, what's wrong with you? Mei Hong was originally my personal maid. I left her at the mansion so that I would have someone to look after me when I returned. But now it doesn't matter. I won't be going back anyway. Your Highness, this move has really helped me a lot."

There was sincerity in Yu Qingli's eyes, without a trace of falsehood, which made Murong Feng stunned. Was he too suspicious?

Immediately avoiding the topic, Murong Feng said with a smile, "It's getting late. I have to go pay my respects and offer tea to the Queen Mother and the Queen Mother today. Please don't delay."

Yu Qingli quickly stood up from the bronze mirror and said, "Yes, Your Highness, I can leave now."

When Yu Qingli stood up, Murong Feng's eyes lit up. Today, Yu Qingli specially wore a pink double-breasted long skirt, which made the bleak autumn atmosphere less bleak. Peach blossoms were splashing under the skirt, and paired with the white fur-collared cloak, it was really dazzling.

Murong Feng couldn't help but be stunned. She was indeed worthy of being the most beautiful woman in Jiangnan. Such a beauty was truly worthy of the title!

Yu Qingli smiled, her beauty captivating the whole country. "Your Highness, what are you still standing there for? Didn't you say you were going to pay your respects to the Queen Mother and the Queen Mother?"

Murong Feng then stepped forward and took Yu Qingli's hand, "Let's go."

The two of them walked out for a few steps together, and Yu Qingli suddenly remembered and asked, "Where's Xiluo?"

Murong Feng frowned, and Yu Qingli explained, "Is that the maid I brought last night?"

"She was summoned by the Queen Mother early this morning. Although she is a maid you brought into the palace, she still needs to undergo formal palace maid training. You will be able to see her soon."

Yu Qingli responded calmly, but glanced at Mei Hong vaguely. "Accepting formal palace maid training?" Then Mei Hong didn't need it either. This kind of partiality wasn't her style.

He immediately put on a smile and said, "In that case, Meihong should come with us later. Since we have to train, it would be nice if she and Xiluo can look after each other."

Even though Murong Feng wanted to favor Mei Hong, he couldn't do it too obviously. Moreover, Yu Qingli's proposal was reasonable and logical, so he had no room to refuse. Therefore, he could only perfunctorily say, "Since she is your maid, you have the final say."

Yu Qingli deliberately took Murong Feng's hand and said, "Thank you, Your Highness! I knew that Your Highness treats me the best."

It was rare for Yu Qingli to take the initiative, and Murong Feng was very pleased. He put his arm around Yu Qingli's slender waist, and walked towards the Cining Palace with a loving look.

The Cining Palace is where the empress dowager lives. Ever since Murong Shiling ascended the throne, the empress dowager has lived in seclusion and rarely leaves the gate of the Cining Palace. She eats vegetarian food and chants Buddhist scriptures all day long, leading a very quiet life.

The Queen Mother was not Murong Shiling's biological mother. Murong Shiling's biological mother died early and was later adopted by the Queen at that time. Because the Queen Mother had no children, she was quite nice to Murong Shiling. Therefore, after Murong Shiling ascended the throne, he respected the Queen Mother very much.

In her previous life, Yu Qingli had only met the Queen Mother once. At that time, because she only had Murong Feng in her eyes, she was just perfunctory towards the Queen Mother. Now, if she could gain the Queen Mother's favor in the palace, perhaps many things would be much easier in the future.

Thinking of this, Yu Qingli began to guess the Queen Mother's thoughts and tried to leave a good impression on her.

You can't be too hasty in anything, especially for a woman who has already seen through all the struggles in the palace. Being too hasty will make her think that you are quite scheming.

Murong Feng held Yu Qingli's hand and walked through the side halls of the palace, passed through the imperial garden full of flowers, and finally arrived at the Cining Palace.

The Cining Hall is located in the southwest of the imperial palace and is very secluded. As soon as you enter the hall, a feeling of simplicity and solemnity comes over you, which makes Yu Qingli involuntarily stand in awe. The empress dowager left a very deep impression on her. Although she had only met her once, she felt that the empress dowager was extremely wise, and her eyes seemed to be able to see through people's hearts.

Even if such a person cannot be a helper, he cannot become an enemy. Otherwise, she will probably have difficulty taking a single step in the palace in the future.

Seeing Yu Qingli pause, Murong Feng naturally thought she was nervous, so he comforted her: "Don't be nervous, Qingli, the Royal Grandmother is a very easy person to get along with. You will know after you meet her."

Yu Qingli knew he had misunderstood, but she didn't explain too much, "Yes, I understand."

The coolness from her palms made Yu Qingli feel a little uncomfortable. The hands that she had longed for so much in her previous life now held her, but made her feel very uncomfortable and even nauseous!
