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

Yu Qingli lowered her brows. "Your Highness's deep affection for me is engraved in my heart. However, Your Highness is a prince. Not to mention the three thousand beauties, you should at least have a group of wives and concubines. Your Highness can rest assured. Qingli is definitely not a jealous person. So, Your Highness, it doesn't matter if Qingli doesn't take all the credit. As long as I can be by Your Highness' side, Qingli is satisfied."

Murong Feng sighed, "Qingli, how could God be so kind to me, allowing me to meet a woman like you? Qingli, don't worry, after I return this time, I will report to my father and ask for a marriage. In three months at the latest, you and I will be together forever."

"Then Qingli will wait for good news!"

Yu Qingli smiled brightly, but her heart was already cold to the extreme. She was very familiar with saying the same words, but the time was different from yesterday. Although the words were the same, her mood was completely different.

"Qingli..."

Murong Feng held Yu Qingli's hand tightly, but was surprised to find that her palm was icy cold. He couldn't help but ask with concern: "Qingli, could it be that the wind evil just entered your body? Why are your palms so cold?"

Yu Qingli lowered her head and pulled her hand out without leaving a trace. "It's nothing. I probably have a cold constitution. Even in the middle of summer, my hands and feet are cold."

"I see. It seems I was worrying too much. I'm glad you're alright."

Mei Hong, who was standing by, felt envious and jealous when she saw this, but also a little disappointed. However, besides feeling disappointed, she also felt a little happy. This way, she would have more opportunities to get close to the eldest prince, which was a good thing.

Because of Yu Qingli's fall into the water, the outing for several people was delayed. Fortunately, Murong Feng did not really come to find Yu Qingli for the purpose of outing. Getting her personal promise made him much happier than seeing the stunning scenery.

But now he is also worried. Judging from Yu Zhengsha's expression, he does not seem to want Yu Qingli to have too much contact with him, probably because his current status is not as high as that of the other princes. However, this does not hinder his plan. As long as he wins the heart of the eldest lady of the Yu family, even if Yu Zhengsha disagrees, the loyal Prime Minister Yu will probably be speechless after the imperial edict is issued.

When the four of them returned to Yu Mansion, it was almost dusk. Yu Qingli changed back into her original clothes for fear that Yu Zhengsha would become suspicious.

However, the matter seemed to have reached Yu Zhengsha's ears. Before entering the mansion, Yu Qingli was informed by Jiang Bai who was waiting at the door that Yu Zhengsha wanted to see her.

Yu Qingli and Murong Feng exchanged a glance. Perhaps Yu Zhengsha had already learned that she had angered Murong Yanhui, so Murong Feng took the initiative to say, "How about I accompany you to see your father?"

"No need! I'll go and see what's going on. I'll come and see His Highness later."

Jiang Bai's eyes swept between Yu Qingli and Murong Feng, and he quickly lowered his eyes again, standing with his hands behind his back, looking humble and submissive.

"Miss, the master has been waiting for a long time."

The implication was that Yu Qingli could leave. Yu Qingli narrowed his eyes slightly. It seemed that his father really didn't want him to have much contact with Murong Feng. This was consistent with his previous life.

In fact, Yu Qingli felt a little regretful. Even though Yu Zhengsha didn't like her that much, at least he was much more accurate in judging people than she was. In her previous life, Yu Zhengsha strongly opposed her marriage. No matter what his reasons were, facts proved that his judgment was correct.

She vaguely remembered that Yu Zhengsha once told her that Murong Feng was definitely not the good man she was talking about!

Who would have thought that he would hit the nail on the head.

In the past and present life, Yu Zhengsha’s words will probably not change, but she will not change either!

In the previous life, I married Murong Feng out of ignorance, and in this life, I want to marry Murong Feng out of hatred!

Yu Qingli walked forward along the smooth cobblestone road, her skirt stained with golden spots. They were the forsythia planted on both sides of the road. If she remembered correctly, this kind of flower was her father's favorite. It seemed that the plum blossoms that decorated the courtyard had revealed her intentions from that moment on.

This kind of silent flattery is exactly what Yu Zhengsha likes.

The layout of the new Yu Mansion has not changed much from the original one. Yu Zhengsha's study and bedroom are both located on the east side of the courtyard. The whole house faces north and south, which is the place with the best light. Because Yu Zhengsha likes sunlight very much, his room has always been the one with the most sunlight.

Sometimes Yu Qingli wondered if it was because Yu Zhengsha's heart was so dark that he particularly liked something as warm and distinct as the sun. It was probably the same principle as what you eat replenishes what you gain.

Since moving into the new house, Yu Qingli has not been to Yu Zhengsha's study. Before she even entered the room, she could already smell the bookish air. Looking up, she saw the sandalwood plaque hanging at the door with four vigorous and powerful characters "Haoran Zhengqi" written on it.

This seems to be Yu Zhengsha's words on governing the world, and also the basis of his self-cultivation!

Jiang Bai walked to the door and knocked respectfully. After getting Yu Zhengsha's approval, he led Yu Qingli in.

Yu Qingli sneered. This was her father. He seemed to always abide by the rules and was always so strict with himself. But was this really his nature?

Yu Qingli slowly walked into the study and raised her chin slightly. She remembered what Yu Zhengsha had said to her, never lower your noble head at any time, even in the face of death. She admired this very much, and no matter whether this arrogance was a bit artificial, at least it was an attitude towards life.

Yu Zhengsha stood with his back to the door, his hands behind his back, his back as straight as ever.

"Father……"

Yu Qingli respectfully bowed to Yu Zhengsha. Basic courtesy was still necessary, at least before she found out the truth.

Yu Zhengsha slowly turned around and ordered, "Sit down!"

Yu Qingli did not refuse and sat down on the chair in front of Yu Zhengsha's desk, waiting for Yu Zhengsha to tell her the purpose of calling her over.

"You have worked hard these days."

Yu Qingli didn't move at all, but she felt a little confused. What did he mean?

"Li'er, ever since your mother passed away, you've been emotionally strained. I know the sadness in your heart, and naturally, I also know your doubts. If you still want to find out the so-called truth, I support you."

Yu Qingli raised her head slightly, vaguely feeling that her father seemed to want to say something important today. Unfortunately, she could not see any clues in the eyes of the middle-aged man opposite her.

His expression was extremely calm, as calm as a pool of stagnant water, yet also as calm as a man-eating swamp that could easily lead to one falling into it if not careful.

Yu Qingli looked at her nose, and then at her heart. "Father, you're too serious. I was ignorant before and made you angry. But I've figured it out these days. After mother passed away, I only have father as my relative in this world. How could I bear to doubt him so casually?"

Yu Qingli's tone was light, gentle, and soft, yet it carried a power that made it impossible to doubt.

"I'm glad you think this way. I'm also very sad about your mother's death, but the dead are gone, and we who are still alive must continue to live well."

"Yes, father, you are right. From now on, your daughter will not make the same mistake again."

Faced with Yu Qingli's attitude, Yu Zhengsha seemed to be very satisfied, but Yu Zhengsha was obviously not so stupid as to believe that from now on Yu Qingli would be a well-behaved and obedient daughter like before.

"How was your fun today?"

"good!"

Yu Zhengsha kept rambling, and Yu Qingli countered his moves.

"Have you taken a few of you to visit your shop?"

After talking for a long time, they finally got to the point. When the word "shop" came out of Yu Zhengsha's mouth, Yu Qingli became alert and started!

"We were in a hurry, so we just swam in the lake."

Yu Zhengsha nodded, then spoke again, "Why don't you go check out the shop when you have time? You've been busy with family matters lately, so don't abandon it. It's your mother's legacy after all. If you encounter any difficulties in running the business, you can ask Jiang Bai. After all, he's been running the shop for many years and has much more experience than you."

"Yes!"

Yu Qingli responded respectfully, but her heart was beating fast. Why did Yu Zhengsha suddenly mention the shop to her? A thought flashed through her mind: could it be that he had already taken action against the shop?

"Okay, you go back and rest first."

"Qingli, take your leave."

Just as Yu Qingli was about to turn around and leave, Yu Zhengsha spoke up as if remembering something: "Why did Prince Yan return home so early today? Did something go wrong?"

Yu Qingli thought for a moment, "The prince said he had something to do and left first. There was no conflict."

"That's good. Okay, you're tired too, go back early."

"Yes!"

Coming out of the study, Yu Qingli felt her eyelids twitching. Yu Zhengsha's words made her a little confused. Suddenly, she stopped, turned around and ran out of Yu Mansion.

After she left, Jiang Bai emerged from the darkness and returned to the study.

"Master, the young lady has just left."

Yu Zhengsha responded softly, and after a moment of silence, he ordered, "Jiang Bai, send someone to follow her and see what she does."

"Yes!"

Yu Zhengsha then asked, "Did anything else happen today?"

Jiang Bai looked hesitant. Yu Zhengsha gave him a cold look and said, "No need to hide it."

"Our people reported that the Prince of Yan and the young lady were originally on the same boat. Later, for unknown reasons, the young lady fell into the water. After being rescued by the eldest prince, they stayed together in the inn by the lake for half a day before returning to the palace."

"Do you know what they said?"

"I didn't hear anything because I was too far away. I just vaguely heard that the maid was very happy for the young lady."

Yu Zhengsha's face darkened and he waved his hand to signal Jiang Bai that he could go down first. Jiang Bai did not stay for long and walked out of the study door politely.
