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

Chapter 192 Heart-to-heart talk between father and son

Murong Shiling did not answer, but continued to ask: "Then do you know why I abolished your position as Crown Prince?"

Murong Feng clenched his fists. This incident was an eternal pain in his heart. Unless necessary, he really didn't want to think about it, even though this fact had been lingering in his mind all these days.

Seeing Murong Feng's expression, Murong Shiling unexpectedly laughed, "Among the children, you and I are the most similar! Although Cheng'er is calm and steady, he is ultimately a bit indecisive. To be a good emperor, you must be ruthless when necessary!"

Murong Feng looked up in surprise. Was Murong Shiling testing him? Then he quickly lowered his head. He couldn't be sure yet!

Murong Shiling continued, "When you were appointed Crown Prince, you immediately became extremely arrogant. However, you didn't realize that the ministers in the court were very dissatisfied with you, especially Prime Minister Yu. Even now, he doesn't seem to have any intention of supporting you. Do you know how powerful Yu Zhengsha is in the court?! That's why I agreed when Prime Minister Yu proposed to appoint another Crown Prince."

Murong Feng was extremely surprised. He originally thought that the matter of deposing the crown prince was Murong Shiling's idea, but he didn't expect that Yu Zhengsha was also involved.

"Father, this time..."

Murong Shiling placed the sandalwood box that Murong Cheng had given him in front of Murong Feng. Murong Feng opened the box, and after seeing what was inside, he could no longer hide the surprise in his eyes.

"What...what's going on?"

"It seems that when you were setting a trap for the prince, he tricked you instead!" Murong Shileng reminded.

Murong Feng lowered his eyes, his heart churning like a huge wave. How could this be possible? In Luoyang, his men had clearly followed Murong Cheng, but they hadn't spotted any of his movements from beginning to end. So where did all this evidence of transactions between the Li and Yu families and Liu Ming come from?

Murong Feng clenched his fists, trying hard to suppress the anger in his heart. What a jerk Murong Cheng was, he actually gave him a feint. It seemed that he had underestimated this man before!

Murong Shiling said earnestly, "Feng'er, among all these children, I'm actually most optimistic about you! This world will be yours one day, I have every confidence in it, but for now, you still need to be patient. Also, never underestimate your opponents!"

Murong Feng's heart was stirred. Over the years, he had thought that his father abolished his position as crown prince because he did not like him. He did not expect to hear such words from his father's mouth.

"My son, I know."

Murong Shiling finally waved his hand in satisfaction and said, "Alright, I'm tired too. You can go back first. Opportunities are always created by yourself."

Although Murong Feng was surprised, he also felt secretly excited. From what his father said, he knew that he should be valued by the emperor.

Murong Feng looked up at the majestic and solemn Golden Throne Hall. Soon, he would definitely sit on that high chair.

He was convinced of this!

At this time, Crown Prince Murong Cheng, who returned to the East Palace, was still in shock. If it weren't for the intervention of his young uncle, he might not even be able to save his life today. Most importantly, Liu Jinghong would probably be implicated as well, right?

Fortunately, nothing happened. His eyes grew colder. This time, the eldest prince had officially broken off relations with him. Although he always knew that he was obsessed with the position of crown prince, he could not let him go on like this.

After all, he also has things he wants to protect. As long as it doesn't touch his bottom line, he doesn't mind returning the position of crown prince to Murong Feng.

But not yet!

"Your Highness, Prime Minister Yu requests an audience!"

"Hurry up!"

Soon, a eunuch brought Yu Zhengsha to Murong Cheng. Yu Zhengsha bowed politely and said, "Greetings, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

"Prime Minister, there is no need to be so polite. I would like to thank you for your help in the court."

"I'm ashamed to say that I haven't been able to help Your Highness in any way. I came here today to ask about what happened today."

Yu Zhengsha went straight to the point. Judging from today's situation, he had no time to waste. His Majesty had obviously begun to favor the eldest prince. At this rate, it was only a matter of time before Murong Feng returned to the position of crown prince. However, once a person like that ascended to the throne, the first person to be eliminated would probably be him, Yu Zhengsha!

He would never allow such a thing to happen!

Murong Cheng's expression turned cold. "What exactly does the Prime Minister want to say?"

"I believe the Crown Prince has already noticed this. On the surface, the Luoyang case appears to be a test of you by the Crown Prince. In reality, without Your Majesty's approval..."

"That's enough!" Murong Cheng interrupted Yu Zhengsha. "Prime Minister, there's no need to say any more. Isn't this matter over? If you have nothing else to do, why don't you go back and rest?"

"Your Highness..."

Murong Cheng waved his hand, "I'm a little tired, Prime Minister, please go back first."

As Murong Cheng spoke, he sat down on the chair as if he was really very tired, then closed his eyes and had no intention of speaking anymore.

Yu Zhengsha was somewhat disappointed. He had hoped to see a more motivated and positive Murong Cheng, but he didn't expect the result to be like this. Was his expectation really too high?

However, this time, Murong Cheng was able to escape danger, which really surprised him. Although he didn't know how he did it, at least he did it.

This shows that the prince is not as stupid as imagined. At least, he can still be supported.

Thinking of this, Yu Zhengsha's mood calmed down a little. No matter what, the person he decided to support would be Murong Cheng and not Murong Feng who was about to become his son-in-law. Moreover, he would not give Murong Feng such an opportunity.

After coming out of the Prince's Palace, Yu Zhengsha did not stay for long. Despite this, the news of his meeting with Murong Cheng soon reached Murong Feng's ears.

"Your Highness, Prime Minister Yu just went to the East Palace. How should this matter be handled?" A man in black tights knelt in front of Murong Feng, looking very capable.

In Ju'an Palace, Murong Feng was using a begonia to tease a pure white bird in a cage. This bird was a tribute from a neighboring small country to Murong Shileng, and was given to Murong Feng by Murong Shileng as a reward.

The bird pecked at the begonia happily with its yellow beak until the petals were pecked to pieces.

Murong Feng raised his eyebrows, "Oh, did you go to the East Palace? It seems that my father-in-law is really restless!"

"Then how about..."

Murong Feng suddenly turned around, his tone cold, "Who told you to act on your own?!"

The sudden chill made the man shut up immediately. He just lowered his head and said, "Your Highness, please calm down. I know I was wrong."

Murong Feng snorted coldly, "It is never anyone else's turn to interfere in my affairs."

"Yes!"

"Keep an eye on Yu Zhengsha for now. Don't touch him before the wedding!"

"My subordinate understands!"

Murong Feng waved his hand, and the man disappeared in front of him, as if he had never appeared. Murong Feng stared at the bird in the cage with extremely cruel eyes.

Yu Zhengsha, you'd better live a little longer before I grow up. As for Yu Qingli, it seems that I don't think much of her. I might as well marry her. If she's just a good-for-nothing, I'd better discard her as soon as possible.

The autumn air was getting deeper and deeper, and the osmanthus flowers in the Yu Mansion had begun to sprout stamens. The autumn wind blew by, and the fragrance of the flowers filled the air, which was very refreshing.

And an uninvited guest came to the Yu Mansion!

Rather than saying that he is a guest, it is better to say that Yu Qingli is back!

Yu Qingli came to the capital from Luoyang with her packed luggage and maids and attendants!

Yu Qingli made this decision after Murong Feng left. Instead of sulking in Luoyang, she decided to go to the capital to see Yu Zhengsha's other two concubines. Since Yu Zhengsha made her uncomfortable, why should she make them comfortable?!

After figuring this out, Yu Qingli packed her luggage early and prepared to go to Beijing. After all, her wedding to Murong Feng was about to take place, so naturally she had to prepare early!

As a father, shouldn't Yu Zhengsha prepare a dowry for his daughter?! Even if he can't bring his mother back to life, he can still make Yu Zhengsha get his comeuppance!

Yu Zhengsha, your daughter is back! Are you ready for her?!

The huge vermilion door shows the position of the master of this mansion in the court. The deep and gloomy words "Yu Mansion" can be seen at a glance as being written by Yu Zhengsha.

Yu Qingli leisurely got off the carriage, straightened her dress a little, looked up at the plaque and sneered, "Yu Zhengsha, it's amazing that he doesn't feel embarrassed facing this solemn and dignified plaque all day long. A man whose bones are rotten like maggots, yet he still pretends to be so noble and calm on the surface."

Yinhuan reached out and supported Yu Qingli. Compared to Meihong, who was obsessed with Murong Feng, Yinhuan was much more considerate. This made Yu Qingli feel a little fortunate that she had found such a maid at that time.

There were almost no available and trustworthy people around her. In her previous life, she had handed over all matters to Mei Hong. Especially after her mother's death, she trusted Mei Hong more and more. However, she did not expect that such trust would become a weapon to kill herself at the critical moment.

So, in my previous life, I was not killed by Mei Hong, but died because of my stupidity!

While Yu Qingli was looking around the Yu Mansion in the capital, Yinhuan and Meihong also looked up slightly and took a look at the huge courtyard.

"Miss, is this the Prime Minister's Mansion?! Compared to the Prime Minister's Mansion in Luoyang, this place is so big!" Mei Hong exclaimed. Although she was punished not long ago, Mei Hong found that the young lady did not deliberately avoid her after that. This made her feel a little relieved, and she therefore resumed her original way of getting along with Yu Qingli.

Habits are very difficult to change, especially when they have lasted for so many years.

Hearing Mei Hong's words, Yu Qingli smiled faintly, "Yes, this capital city is indeed worthy of being the capital of a country! Then, we should go and pay our respects to father!"
