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

Chapter 182 Returning to Hometown

Someone in the court stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, the Prince of Yan's actions are too outrageous! He simply doesn't take Your Majesty seriously! If such behavior were to become known, wouldn't it undermine Your Majesty's prestige?"

"Hahaha……"

Before Murong Shiling could speak, an inappropriate laugh was heard in the court, and it was actually made by Tang Yi.

Seeing everyone's eyes on him, Tang Yi couldn't help but restrain his smile and said, "I'm really sorry, because this scene is really too funny, I couldn't help it!"

The minister frowned and asked, "Does the Crown Prince of Dong Tang have any advice?"

Tang Yi's phoenix eyes swept over coldly, and his voice sounded neither too loud nor too low, "I don't dare to teach you, but I didn't expect your country's officials to be so good at taking advantage of others' misfortunes!"

Tang Yi's voice was calm, but the sarcasm in his tone made everyone present fall silent involuntarily.

Murong Shiling felt ashamed. He coughed and said to the official who had spoken earlier, "Alright, let's not discuss this matter any further. The Prince of Yan's action was purely unintentional. I will not pursue it."

The official wanted to say something, but after seeing Murong Shileng's warning look, he dared not utter a word.

Murong Shiling looked at Tang Yi and said, "I'm sorry to have embarrassed you, Your Highness. Although your proposal was unsuccessful, this does not hinder the marriage between our two countries. There are many outstanding women in our country..."

"Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty!"

Before Murong Shiling could finish his words, Tang Yi interrupted him and asked, "What a joke! You want to just pick a woman for him? Do you think he's a fool?"

Since Murong Yanhui failed to get the woman, what reason does Tang Yi have to continue to meddle in it?

This drama should come to an end!

Seeing Tang Yi's flat refusal, Murong Shileng was obviously disappointed. If the marriage could be achieved, it would not only promote the relationship between the two countries, but perhaps some spies could be planted in the Dong Tang Palace. But unfortunately, this seemingly unremarkable Dong Tang prince was much smarter than imagined at the critical moment.

A farce ended just like that, but in the seemingly calm court, another wave of changes might be about to start. Now Murong Feng has become Yu Zhengsha's son-in-law, and the original prince Murong Cheng seems to have been slightly weakened. Officials in the court also congratulated Yu Zhengsha.

But at this moment, Yu Zhengsha was thinking about how to get rid of Yu Qingli. Even if Yu Qingli married the eldest prince, it would not change his original intention. It seems that the time to take action has finally come!

A hint of murderous intent flashed in Yu Zhengsha's eyes!

On the other hand, after Murong Yanhui left the palace, he went straight back to Yu Qingli's residence. So what if it was an arranged marriage?! He could just take Yu Qingli away! He had no interest in the world anyway. As long as he could be with Yu Qingli in this life, it didn't matter where he was.

"Lili, Lili, let's go together..."

Murong Yanhui's voice stopped abruptly after seeing the empty room!

Yu Qingli is missing!

"Master?! Why are you here?"

Xiaoliu, who had just returned from buying breakfast, was surprised to see Murong Yanhui standing at the door with a gloomy expression, but he soon understood what was going on and fell to his knees.

"Master, please punish me. I didn't take good care of the young lady!"

Murong Yanhui sighed, "This matter has nothing to do with you. I should have expected this outcome earlier. After what happened, how could Lili still stay in the capital?"

"So, Master, what should we do now?"

Murong Yanhui's expression was stern. He would never give up like this. Lili was his! This was the only thing he couldn't let go of!

Yu Qingli left the capital, disguised herself, and headed towards Luoyang. In order to facilitate her journey, she changed into men's clothes and dressed up as a man. After two days of travel, Yu Qingli's mood finally calmed down a little.

Biancheng is a small town on the way from the capital to Luoyang. It does not have the grandeur of the imperial capital, nor the gentleness of Luoyang, but it has a clean and refreshing feeling.

The moment she stepped into Biancheng, Yu Qingli felt inexplicably calm. Why did this small town, which didn't look very rich, make her feel so at ease?

As we walked along, the yellow leaves on both sides of the road rustled, and naughty children were playing under the trees. Everything was peaceful and beautiful.

Yu Qingli stopped at the door of an inn. It had no inn, what a strange name! But it was also interesting.

After entering the inn, there was no waiter or anything like that, not even the owner of an ordinary inn. There was only an open box at the door. There was a lot of silver in the box, which was really interesting. It seemed that this inn was really worthy of its reputation. Yu Qingli was a little depressed. Could there not even be food?

Yu Qingli heaved a sigh of relief when she suddenly saw the sign at the door stating the various regulations for overnight stays and accommodation. She went to the kitchen to get some food. Fortunately, there was someone in the kitchen. She just had to write down what she wanted to eat on a piece of paper and hand it to the kitchen staff.

After eating and drinking, Yu Qingli found an empty room to stay in. Perhaps because she was too tired, Yu Qingli fell asleep all of a sudden.

The moon was rising in the courtyard, and it was extremely desolate. Yu Qingli suddenly woke up, and looking at the moonlight outside the window, she couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat!

The surroundings were so quiet that it was terrifying. In this silence, Yu Qingli felt vaguely uneasy. There were some sounds coming from outside the door, and Yu Qingli's intuition told her that danger was approaching step by step.

Someone wants to kill her!

Although he was shocked, he was not panicked. He sneered and quietly stood up. He stuffed the pillow into the quilt, slid to the bottom of the bed, and curled up there motionless!

The footsteps were getting closer and closer. Although they were light, they still carried a hint of murderous intent. A moment later, Yu Qingli saw several figures of unknown origin and the cold aura of ice blades in the dim moonlight.

After these people swiftly hacked around on the bed, they realized that it wasn't Yu Qingli. One of the men, with a slightly hoarse voice, said, "She shouldn't have escaped. Search her!"

Yu Qingli was very nervous after hearing this. Even if she lived a new life, would she still die a violent death?!

No, she is not reconciled!

The thieves' feet were so close to her eyes that Yu Qingli felt sweat on the tip of her nose?

Unexpectedly, when she saw the cold light flashing, Yu Qingli calmed down. She had secretly made a decision in her heart that if it really didn't work, she would fight to the death!

"A dark and windy night for murder? You might have walked into the wrong room!"

A cold and evil voice came, which made Yu Qingli feel relieved. It was him!

"Who are you?! Stop meddling in our business!"

The visitor sneered, "You want to know who I am?! You're not worthy!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Yu Qingli heard the sound of someone falling down. In the moonlight, she could even see the eyes of those who fell down were still open.

"Please spare our lives, hero. We were also entrusted by someone..."

There was a faint sound of begging for mercy, but it obviously couldn't move the visitor. Only the familiar voice could be heard saying evilly: "Beg for mercy, that's fine. Only one of you can return alive. You make your choice!"

The two killers looked at each other and raised their knives at each other at the same time. A moment later, Yu Qingli saw two corpses.

I sighed in my heart, but I didn't feel any sympathy. I just felt that it was a pity that such a good night was ruined like this!

Then, a dandy face that was familiar to Yu Qingli appeared in front of her, but unlike the usual playful face, there was a hint of solemnity in it.

Yu Qingli climbed out of the bed, straightened her clothes, and fell into a warm embrace without saying a word.

"Lili..."

Murong Yanhui hugged Yu Qingli tightly, his body even shaking constantly. He was really scared. He had never been so scared when he followed his father to fight on the battlefield. He simply couldn't imagine what the consequences would be if he had arrived a step later.

"Your Majesty..."

Yu Qingli was somewhat moved. She was not a heartless person, but when she thought of her father's previous concealment, she also hated Murong Yanhui who was secretly interfering with her.

But now, seeing the bloodstains on the white clothes of the man in front of her, she suddenly calmed down. There were four or five corpses lying at his feet, and his eyes that had never closed seemed to remind Yu Qingli that nothing was more important than being alive.

It is obvious that these inexplicably appearing killers were sent by her father. Now if she wants to escape successfully, she may only have the help of King Yan.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for saving my life!"

Yu Qingli pushed Murong Yanhui away without leaving a trace and bowed politely.

Murong Yanhui raised an eyebrow, "Lili, why do we need to be so polite? Why... did you run away?!"

Yu Qingli lowered her brows, but did not answer Murong Yanhui's question. Instead, she asked, "Is Xiaoliu yours?!"

Murong Yanhui was stunned and suddenly understood the reason why Yu Qingli escaped. In one day, he found himself deceived by two people. This feeling was indeed a bit hard to accept.

Explanations seemed unnecessary, and concealment was impossible. Murong Yan chose to tell the truth, "Lili, the king thought that if you had someone to take care of you, it would be more convenient for you to come to the capital."

Yu Qingli sneered, took two steps back and said, "It is indeed very convenient. I have to thank His Majesty for giving me such a good attendant. I think while it is convenient for me to gain a foothold in the capital, it also makes it easier for His Majesty to monitor me, right?"

"Lili, I never meant to monitor you. I sincerely want to marry you and I really don't want you to get hurt..."

Yu Qingli looked up and coldly interrupted Murong Yanhui, "Your Highness, I have told you many times that I will marry the eldest prince and am destined to become his consort. Therefore, there is absolutely no possibility between you and me. This is not said out of anger. Please don't waste your feelings and energy in the future."

Yu Qingli's words made Murong Yanhui anxious and angry. He rushed over and rescued Yu Qingli from the killer, but in the end he was met with such words?

Grabbing Yu Qingli's hand, Murong Yanhui said coldly, "Lili, I'm telling you again, I will never let you go. In this life, you can only be my woman!"

"Really? I'm afraid it's beyond Your Highness's control. If I'm not mistaken, Your Highness, the reason you've come to find me in such a hurry is because the imperial decree granting marriage has already been issued?!"

Murong Yanhui looked up in surprise. She actually knew?!
