Chapter 179 I was cheated after all
Murong Yanhui sighed softly and held Yu Qingli in his arms regardless of her struggle. The moonlight was cold and the night wind was chilly, but his embrace was as hot as a scorching stove. Since her heart was cold, he didn't mind using his own to warm her.
After struggling for a few times, Yu Qingli stopped, turned around and hugged the man who exuded a sense of security. The hot tears in her eyes could no longer be held back and slid down onto his shoulders. The dull pain in her wound seemed to be desperately exposed at this moment, leaving a bloody mess.
Murong Yanhui remained motionless, his face lacking the usual unrestrained charm, but instead showing a hint of heartache and anger. His Lili was really hurt this time!
He saw Yu Qingli's personality. She was definitely the kind of woman who would swallow her grievances. Such a fragile Yu Qingli really made Murong Yanhui feel distressed to the core. He wished that from now on, he could hold up a sky for her and block all the wind and rain.
In the night, the two figures blended into one, so perfectly matched that it made people jealous.
Yu Qingli didn't know how long she had cried in Murong Yanhui's arms. It was as if she had cried all the tears in her life. Her head felt dizzy and painful, but her consciousness was exceptionally clear.
She knew that Murong Yanhui had taken her away and had not returned to the palace. She couldn't help but think that if she could escape from the palace in this way, it would be a good opportunity.
In a daze, she finally fell asleep.
When I woke up again, it was already bright in the east. A voice came from outside the door. It was vague and unclear, but from the tone, it was definitely Murong Yanhui.
Just as he was about to close his eyes again, he unexpectedly heard Murong Yanhui's tone tinged with anger, "Didn't I tell you to keep a good eye on Lili? Is this how you do it? The people have already entered the palace, and you haven't even sent a single piece of news. What use do I have for you?!"
Yu Qingli was stunned. Murong Yan replied, "Who are you talking to?"
Another voice that Yu Qingli was very familiar with rang out, "Master, please forgive me this time. I entered the palace at the age of thirteen and have been with you for ten years. If you don't want me, then where will I make a living in the future?!"
It turned out to be Xiaoliu’s voice!
Yu Qingli wanted to laugh, laughing at her own stupidity and naivety. It turned out that along the way, there had been spies around her. She had thought that her luck had finally improved, so she met such a loyal and capable servant.
It's really ridiculous. It turns out that Xiao Liu's loyalty is not to himself, but to his other master, Murong Yanhui. The most ridiculous thing is that even his age doesn't match what I knew at first. I thought he was a naive boy of seventeen or eighteen years old, but I didn't expect that he was already in his early twenties.
No wonder he is smart and steady in his work!
From the beginning to the end, she was deceived, and no matter what the reason was, the fact that the King of Yan deceived her was indelible.
Yu Qingli gritted her teeth in hatred. After living a new life, was she still going to repeat the mistakes of her previous life? She was constantly being toyed with and played around with, like a piece of fish at the mercy of others.
Lying on the bed, Yu Qingli had already made a decision in her heart. She would never become a puppet of these people. Her life must be in her own hands!
Murong Yanhui, who was outside the door, had no idea what Yu Qingli was thinking. He just sighed and told Xiaoliu, "Forget it. I'll keep you by Lili's side to atone for your sins. But there's one thing: you must report the situation here at all times. Otherwise, don't blame me for being merciless."
"Thank you, Your Highness. Don't worry, Your Highness, I will definitely not make the same mistake again this time."
Murong Yanhui's eyes turned cold, "I hope so. If it happens again, I will go back and accept the punishment!"
"Master, don't worry, there will definitely not be a next time!"
Murong Yanhui looked up at the sky and said, "It's getting late. It's time for me to return to the palace. If I don't show up at the morning court today, I'm afraid it will cause unnecessary trouble."
"Your servant respectfully bids farewell to your master!" Xiao Liu was extremely respectful, and one could tell that he admired and respected his master from the bottom of his heart.
Murong Yanhui quickly left the courtyard, and Xiaoliu returned to the room to take care of Yu Qingli. He was originally a eunuch in the inner palace, so there was no difference between men and women. However, he was a little worried because Miss Yu had not woken up for a long time.
Although he was ordered to monitor this woman during these days, he was really impressed by Yu Qingli's performance. While he was happy for his master to find a good woman, he himself couldn't tell whether he was more loyal to Yu Qingli or Murong Yanhui.
No matter what, his task now is to take good care of Miss Yu.
Xiaoliu looked at the sky outside and remembered that Yu Qingli really liked to eat the buns from Defulou, so he hurried out the door. After all, the young lady was still sleeping and wouldn't wake up for a while. The young lady looked haggard today, so she needed to take good care of herself after she woke up!
Hearing the sound of Xiaoliu leaving, Yu Qingli suddenly opened her eyes, with a cold look in her eyes. She quickly got out of bed, packed a few clothes from the closet, took the silver, and fled from the yard. She didn't even take the land deed. Maybe she felt that it would not be of much use even if she took it?
Now that things have come to this, if she still doesn't understand, she'd be a fool. This courtyard is probably under the name of Murong Yanhui, right?!
What on earth did he want to do by secretly making her owe him so many favors?!
But no matter what his purpose was, she would not be manipulated so easily by him. She took a good horse from the stable and galloped towards Luoyang.
She must leave this dangerous place as soon as possible!
Although it was somewhat like escaping, Yu Qingli did not regret this trip to the capital. At least, she saw her father's true face and finally made up her mind to break off all ties with the Yu family.
From now on, the bridge is the bridge and the road is the road!
Yu Qingli didn't even have time to stop and rest, and rode her horse as fast as the wind to Luoyang. She was worried that if she was a step late, she would be captured by Murong Yan and taken to the palace again. But now, she didn't have time to stay in the palace any longer!
If she guessed correctly, Murong Feng should have already requested the imperial decree, and she would be married into the palace in two months!
Thinking of that enemy, Yu Qingli's blood began to boil. She couldn't wait to see the man's expression when he fell from his high position. It would be so satisfying.
In the imperial palace, Anle Hall, Murong Yanhui's eyelids have been twitching since he returned to the palace. He vaguely felt that something bad had happened, but he didn't know why. In recent days, his royal brother has been in a bad mood because of the Yu Liuli incident, and the ministers in the court have also been very conscious and have not mentioned anything about the woman. There shouldn't be any problem.
Murong Yanhui shook his head, thinking that he was thinking too much.
The Crown Prince of Dong Tang finally proposed to go back, which was unexpected good news for everyone in the court.
In the Golden Palace, the ministers stood respectfully on both sides. Murong Shiling cheered up and started the morning court session.
"Your Majesty, I am very satisfied with my stay in your country this time. I have decided to return home tomorrow." Tang Yi's attitude was very respectful.
"Your Highness, you are in such a hurry to return. I feel guilty. Your Highness brought high-quality gifts to Canghe this time. How about this? If Your Highness has anything you like, you can also take it back to Dongtang."
Tang Yi's eyes lit up, "Your Majesty, are you serious?!"
Murong Shiling was just being polite, but he didn't expect the Crown Prince of Dong Tang to take it seriously. Could it be that he already had what he wanted?!
He felt a little unhappy, but it would be rude not to reciprocate. If he wanted to bring some Canghe specialties back, that was fine. After all, the things he brought were priceless.
"As long as it's what I can give."
Tang Yi smiled and said, "His Majesty the Emperor will definitely be able to give me something like this! I want someone!"
"Oh? I wonder who His Highness has taken a fancy to?!"
Murong Shiling was very curious. From what the Crown Prince of Dong Tang said, it seemed that he wanted to form an alliance with Cang He. This would be a good thing for the relationship between the two countries. However, it seemed that Tang Yi had not had the opportunity to come into contact with the princess in the harem during the few days he came to Cang He. Could it be that she was a woman outside the palace?
If this is true, then it would be even better. If he can consolidate the relationship between the two countries by just finding a woman, why wouldn't he do it?
Tang Yi glanced at Yu Zhengsha with a half-smile, and Yu Zhengsha's heart skipped a beat. Why did the prince's eyes look so weird?
"Your Majesty, the one I'm attracted to is the daughter of your country's Prime Minister!"
As soon as these words were spoken, there was an uproar in the hall. Some were envious, some congratulated him, and some just stood by and watched without expressing any opinions. When Murong Yanhui heard this, his face turned pale. This damn Tang Yi, is he trying to snatch the person from him?
Yu Zhengsha's first reaction was to step forward and salute respectfully, "Your Majesty, my daughter Zhenzhen is still young, isn't this a bit inappropriate?!"
Tang Yi frowned. "Prime Minister Yu, please don't interrupt. This is a conversation between me and your Majesty. Besides, are you trying to deceive me? Besides, I'm not interested in truth or falsehood. I'm talking about your eldest daughter, Yu Qingli, the most talented woman in Luoyang!"
Not to mention Yu Zhengsha was very surprised, even Murong Shiling was a little surprised. Although he knew that Prime Minister Yu had a daughter in his hometown, he had never seen this girl. How could she be favored by the Prince of Dongtang? Speaking of which, this woman seemed to be the niece of the Queen.
Before Murong Shiling could speak, Murong Yanhui said loudly: "Your Majesty, I disagree!"
Originally, Murong Yanhui did not need to attend the court, and if he was not dealing with the Prince of Dong Tang today, he would not have to be present. Unexpectedly, as soon as Tang Yi spoke, he was the first to express a different opinion. Although Yu Zhengsha seemed to disagree, he did not express it directly!
Murong Yanhui's words surprised Murong Shiling even more. The King of Yan had never participated in politics, so why would he express a different opinion today? It was truly intriguing, and it also piqued Murong Shiling's interest. He wanted to hear the King of Yan's reason for disagreeing!
"Prince Yan, please tell me why you disagree with this matter?!"
Murong Yanhui stepped forward and saluted respectfully, "Your Majesty, you may not know, but this Yu Qingli and I have already secretly agreed to spend our lives together!"
