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

"Where's the stuff?!"

Yu Zhengsha became increasingly impatient. He frowned and wondered what other tricks Yu Qingli was planning to play.

Yu Qingli was unwilling to continue to entangle with Yu Zhengsha. Since her goal had been achieved, there was no point in asking for the official seal. Moreover, if Yu Zhengsha could not go to Beijing to take up his post, it would not seem to be of any benefit to her. Thinking of this, she pulled out the seal from her waist.

A brocade bag slipped down and Yu Qingli caught it and held it in her hand.

When he opened the brocade bag, a piece of exquisite and pure jade appeared in front of Yu Zhengsha. From the base with a slight touch of bright red cinnabar, it could be judged that this was indeed an official seal.

Yu Qingli lowered her brows and respectfully handed the official seal to Yu Zhengsha with both hands, "Father, please calm down. I didn't hand over the official seal I found as soon as possible, but used it to threaten you. This is really unfilial. But please forgive me, father. I must find a place for my mother to live.

Yu Zhengsha took the official seal and looked at it for a moment in confusion. Regardless of whether this Yu Qingli was real or fake at this time, she still returned the thing.

Yu Zhengsha put it into his sleeve and sighed softly, "Never mind, you are doing your filial duty to your mother. Although your actions are a bit extreme, there is nothing wrong with them."

Yu Qingli bowed to him again, but told herself in her heart that this was the last time, the last time she would kneel down and worship him so devoutly as if he were her father. After today, everything would be different.

Yu Zhengsha took back the official seal, feeling somewhat relieved. He suddenly thought of something and said to Yu Qingli, "I will be returning to Beijing to report on my work soon. Naturally, everything in this family will be handed over to you to manage. That's why I put your name on the property."

Yu Qingli lowered her head and said nothing, thinking to herself, "Is this an explanation? It's just a bit far-fetched." She remained calm and replied, "Yes, my daughter, you worry too much."

Yu Zhengsha didn't say anything more and turned to leave. Looking at his back as he walked away, Yu Qingli's eyes became even colder. This was her father, the one who would have to maintain his upright image at all times and in all places.

Yu Qingli took a deep look at Li's tombstone, then turned around without hesitation. She couldn't stop here. Before her revenge was completed, she could only engrave all the pain and sorrow in her heart.

The orange sunset dyed the entire sky brilliantly. The red glow shone on Yu Qingli's face, revealing a kind of hot and coldness. The strange fusion was dazzling and shocking. The elongated shadow fell obliquely on the lonely grave, as if it was Yu Qingli's last lingering wish.

When she returned to the Yu Mansion, it was already completely dark. The scene of this day made Yu Qingli feel as tired as if she had spent a whole year. She returned to her room and told no one to come in and disturb her. She lay down on the bed, raised her hands to cover her face, but could not shed a single tear.

She couldn't help laughing at herself. How could she forget that she had cried all her tears out during the fifteen years in the cold palace in her previous life? And in this life, she would never let anyone bully her.

The cool breeze accompanied by the rustling of the branches added a bit of noise to the otherwise quiet night. Unknown insects also began to chirp softly, as if they were hiding something.

In the east wing room, Yu Zhengsha was plotting something with Jiang Bai, both of them had serious expressions on their faces.

"Master, we have already checked everything out. The shops run by those young ladies are very profitable. It seems that they are doing very well."

As Jiang Bai spoke, he respectfully handed the information in his hand to Yu Zhengsha.

Yu Zhengsha took the information and flipped through it casually, a sneer involuntarily appearing on his lips. "It seems that I really raised a good daughter. It's such a pity that she is a woman!"

It was hard to tell whether these words were praise or ridicule, which made Jiang Bai stand up straighter. "Master, you are right. The young lady is very talented, but I never thought that she also knows how to do business."

Yu Zhengsha snorted coldly, but threw the information directly onto the table beside him, and ordered Jiang Bai, "Take over these businesses as soon as possible!"

Jiang Bai nodded slightly, but asked, "Do you want all of them?"

"That's natural!"

Yu Zhengsha answered very confidently. He had already sensed Yu Qingli's evil intentions. Li's death made her full of hatred for him. Even if she tried her best to hide it and deliberately cover it up, the hatred emanating from her bones could not be ignored. In addition, this time she used the official seal to threaten him, so next time, she might do the same thing, or even something more serious.

Yu Zhengsha could vaguely see some clues from Yu Qingli's stubborn eyes. She had no intention of giving up, but now she realized that she did not have that strength yet, so she lay dormant and would wait for the opportunity to fight back.

Rather than sharpening your sword at the last minute, it is better to take precautions before problems arise!

Yu Zhengsha never allowed anyone to threaten his career, not even his own daughter! He also knew very well that for a young girl in the boudoir, if she wanted to fight against him, she could only rely on these external forces.

Jiang Bai received the order, but he was in no hurry to leave. Suddenly, as if he had thought of something, he asked, "If the young lady is more skilled, then we..."

After a moment's silence, Yu Zhengsha uttered four words, "Let's talk business!"

Jiang Bai then nodded respectfully and turned to leave, but Yu Zhengsha suddenly said, "By the way, please tidy up the guest room. The eldest prince will be coming to pay his respects soon!"

"Yes, I'll prepare it right away."

"Make proper preparations to avoid giving others a chance to talk. Try your best to provide the best food, clothing, and other necessities so as not to make the Crown Prince feel uncomfortable."

"Yes! I understand."

Yu Zhengsha's instructions were very thoughtful. He always treated others with respect, which might be related to his own experience. From the emperor's ministers to the beggars on the street, he would give the greatest respect to them. This could be considered his strength.

For example, the eldest prince who is about to come to the palace was originally the deposed crown prince. Although he has the title of prince, he is not much better than those exiled ones. Everyone avoids him and some even take advantage of his misfortune. Only Yu Zhengsha still treats him as usual.

"Okay, then, go ahead."

Jiang Bai responded again before slowly getting up and leaving. Yu Zhengsha sat alone in the side room with a frown on his face. He wondered why the eldest prince suddenly thought of coming to pay tribute to Li. Could it be that he had something to do with Qingli?

Yu Zhengsha narrowed his eyes, and a gleam of light flashed in his eyes. It seemed that he had to find out how many things Yu Qingli was hiding from him.

Early the next morning, before Yu Qingli got up, she heard the slightly excited chattering voices of the maids coming from outside the window.

"Have you heard? The eldest prince will come to the Yu Mansion soon."

"The eldest prince? The former crown prince who was deposed? Just come if you want, there's nothing strange about that."

"What do you know? This eldest prince is a famous handsome man in Canghe. I heard that he has a gentle temperament and treats people politely, but he is also romantic and passionate. If I could be chosen by him as a concubine, I would be content with my life."

"Go away! Go and dream on. He's the former crown prince! Even though he's been deposed, he's still the eldest prince of the royal family. How could he possibly marry a maidservant as a concubine?"

"You don't understand this, right? In this world, relationships between men and women don't have to have so many causes and consequences. It's enough if you're attracted to each other..."

The voices of the maids gradually faded away, but Yu Qingli's mind was shaking like thunder. She felt dizzy for a moment. She tried for a long time before she finally regained some composure.

Murong Feng! He's finally coming!

The hatred engraved in every bone and every drop of blood burst out, causing Yu Qingli to suddenly sit up from the bed, her body trembling as she opened her eyes wide.

She tightly grasped the thin quilt covering her body, her slender fingers almost tearing a hole in the quilt. Even her breathing became rapid, and she had to bite her lips hard to calm the emotion that was almost driving her crazy.

How could she forget those fifteen years of miserable life in the cold palace? How could she forget the excruciating pain of having her tendons severed? How could she forget the brutal memory of her face being disfigured and her young son being murdered?

At this moment, Yu Qingli seemed to be back in that bleak moonlit night, back in the deserted cold palace. She felt cold all over, as if she had fallen into an ice cellar! Her undergarment was already soaked through, sticking to her body, making her feel even colder.

Yu Qingli tried hard to suppress her emotions and finally managed to refrain from screaming, but the hatred in her eyes grew deeper.

"Miss, ma'am..."

Mei Hong pushed open Yu Qingli's door. Before she even entered, she heard a slightly hoarse voice shouting coldly, "Get out!"

Mei Hong was stunned, and stood outside the door with a puzzled look on her face. She asked with concern, "Miss, what's wrong with you? Are you sick? How about I ask a doctor to come and take a look?"

For a long while, there was no movement in the room. Just when Mei Hong was about to rush in to check what was going on, she heard Yu Qingli's voice, "Come in."

As calm and peaceful as usual, Meihong was a little dazed. Could it be that she had heard it wrong just now?

Pushing the door open and walking in, Mei Hong saw Yu Qingli lying on the bed at a glance. There were still some beads of sweat on her forehead, and her clothes were soaked and stuck to her body. There was a hint of fatigue and sadness between her brows, but it was strangely frightening.

Doubt flashed across his mind, and then he was filled with worry. "Miss, what happened to you just now?"

"Nothing, just a nightmare!"

Yu Qingli didn't want to say much, but her eyes were wary of Mei Hong, who had betrayed her in her previous life. Murong Feng was coming, how could she forget the painful lesson of her previous life?

His brows lowered, and when he looked up again, he had already made up his mind, "Mei Hong, what do you think of the eldest prince?"
