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

Shopkeeper Li and the apprentice looked at each other, and then he told the whole story.

Ten days ago, a big customer suddenly came to the cloth shop called Nishangfang.

Shopkeeper Li vaguely remembered that the man was wearing a suit of dark blue brocade, a kind of brocade rarely seen on the market. Only merchants coming from the capital had occasionally seen a few of them. Especially the jade fan in the man's hand, which showed endless nobility when it opened and closed. It was obvious at a glance that he was a merchant with some background.

Shopkeeper Li was a shrewd man. Experienced in business, he rarely made mistakes. So when he saw a customer like this, he immediately approached him with a friendly smile, "Sir, do you want to buy fabric or make clothes?"

The man didn't say anything, but just gave Shopkeeper Li a mysterious look. Then he lowered his voice and said, "Shopkeeper, I want to do a big business with you. I wonder if you are willing to do it?"

Shopkeeper Li already had a preconceived impression of this man. Now that the other party had taken the initiative to propose a big business deal, there was no reason for him to refuse.

However, Shopkeeper Li was also cautious. He said nothing, but simply said to the man, "You came to this cloth shop to do business, so why not speak frankly?"

The man looked around for a moment before taking out a heavy bag of silver from the package beside him.

Shopkeeper Li was shocked when he saw this. As the saying goes, wealth should not be shown off. This man was walking on the street with so much silver at once, and he was not afraid of being robbed. At that moment, Shopkeeper Li ordered the apprentice to close the door.

"What are you going to do with so much silver? Even if we sell all the cloth in our shop to you, you won't need so much silver."

The man smiled and said, "Boss, I'm from the capital. This time I'm responsible for purchasing the best fabrics. Money is not a problem. I'll take as much fabric as you can get."

Shopkeeper Li was also dazzled by so much silver. According to the man's request, he gave him all the best materials in the shop. After calculating, it was still not enough, so he asked his apprentice to go to the warehouse to get some and gave him all the stock.

At this point, Shopkeeper Li couldn't help but sigh, "It's all my fault for being too greedy at the time. I didn't think about how such a good thing could possibly happen to me."

Yu Qingli nodded slightly. The most likely reason for this pie falling from the sky was that there was something fishy going on.

"It would be a good thing if all this fabric could be sold at once, but what happened next?"

Shopkeeper Li lowered his head and continued, "Just when I was overjoyed and thought I had made a big deal, trouble arose. First, the government officials came to me and said that after investigation, the silver was stolen and they wanted to take it back. They said that the person who came to buy the cloth was one of the suspects."

"They actually mobilized the government. It seems the person behind this incident is quite powerful."

Murong Yan listened for a long time before saying something. Yu Qingli on the side glanced at him coldly. Even without him saying anything, she knew very well in her heart that the mastermind behind this could only be her righteous father.

Shopkeeper Li sighed, "I thought it was going to be a big deal, but within two days, everything was gone. All that's left in the shop are these floral cotton fabrics. All the good stuff was taken by that guy."

Yu Qingli clenched her fists when she heard this. "So, that person also disappeared later?"

"That's the most infuriating thing. Three days later, the man who allegedly stole the government silver took the large amount of cloth he'd bought from us and opened a cloth shop across the street. He immediately took over our business. Even some of our regular customers went across the street because our shop ran out of stock."

"So after those fabrics sold out, you didn't restock them immediately?"

"Why wouldn't we go and restock? The problem is that overnight, our entire supply was cut off. The silkworm farmers who had been supplying us suddenly changed their minds. It wasn't until then that I realized we were being tricked. I asked Xiao San to report this to the young lady that day, but Xiao San didn't give me a clear explanation when she came back."

Shopkeeper Li paused. "Later, I went to the Yu Mansion in person. It was Butler Jiang who received me. He was very polite, but he just said that the young lady was not at home and would tell her when he returned. Seven or eight days passed like this, and I never expected that the young lady would come today."

"I was negligent!" Yu Qingli stood up and apologized, "Manager Li, you've worked hard these days. It's my responsibility that I didn't handle this matter in time. I apologize to you."

"I can't do it, I can't do it!"

Shopkeeper Li waved his hands repeatedly. He was the one who messed up the matter, so why should the mistress of the house apologize to him?

Murong Yanhui on the side narrowed her eyes. This woman was really becoming more and more impressive. Previously, people only thought that she was beautiful and talented, but now it seemed that apart from these, her humility and kindness seemed to be more attractive.

"Shopkeeper Li, do you know the situation of the other shops?"

Shopkeeper Li nodded. "Actually, just two days ago, I met with Shopkeeper Bai from the south of the city. I heard that a similar strange thing happened there. However, Shopkeeper Bai was more cautious than I was. He only sold one-tenth of the cloth, so the loss was not too great, and that's why he didn't alarm the young lady."

Yu Qingli nodded slightly. It seemed that this series of events were indeed arranged by the same person. Perhaps Jiang Bai had contributed to this. He was able to replace the original with the fake without anyone noticing, and even let the government officials get involved in the matter. If it weren't for the housekeeper Jiang personally taking action, no one would have dared to interfere with the business of her, the daughter of the prime minister's mansion.

There was a frost in Yu Qingli's eyes. She really didn't expect that her biological father would do such a cruel thing. Was he trying to cut off her last escape route?

At this point, the matter had been made clear. Shopkeeper Li wiped the sweat from his forehead and stepped forward to ask, "Miss, what should we do next? This business..."

"Of course, business must continue. This trouble will always have a solution. You don't have to worry about this matter. Shopkeeper Li, from now on, all you have to do is invite the shopkeepers of the other shops here as soon as possible. Before dawn, I want to know everything about my opponent."

"Yes, I will do it now."

Shopkeeper Li left quickly. Yu Qingli stroked his forehead. Facing such a powerful opponent, where should he start?

Yu Qingli glanced over and saw Murong Yanhui leaning leisurely on the chair, swinging her long legs from time to time, looking very bored. With her eyes slightly narrowed, an idea flashed through her mind. Since the other party used such despicable means, why couldn't she use it too?

Murong Yanhui saw Yu Qingli staring at him closely, her eyes full of calculation, and couldn't help but laugh secretly. Could this woman have already come up with a solution? Was she going to drag him into this as well?

But she saw a gentle smile slowly spreading across Yu Qingli's lips, her eyes flashing with a glittering cold light. She walked lightly in front of Murong Yanhui and lowered her voice, "Prince, do you want to make some extra money?"

Sure enough, he was going to drag me down with him!

Murong Yanhui closed her eyes and opened her thin lips, "My king, I don't need those two small coins!"

It was obvious that he didn't want to get involved in this matter. Nonsense, what business did an outsider like him have with the fight between the father and daughter? Besides, it was just a few shops.

There was no need for Murong Yanhui to go to such trouble for such a thankless task, even if it was just to pursue a woman.

Yu Qingli's expression turned a little colder, but the smile on her face remained unchanged. She slowly approached Murong Yan and replied, "Are you scared?"

A method of provoking generals? !

Murong Yanhui laughed. He had always been a playboy and unrestrained person. This kind of childish stuff really had no effect on him. What's more, this woman had bet on the wrong horse from the beginning. Compared to money, he was more interested in her as a person.

Murong Yanhui stroked his chin and said, "Well, strictly speaking, I'm afraid of trouble!"

Yu Qingli gritted her teeth. This damned man, was he so stubborn?! It seemed she couldn't continue beating around the bush with him.

Yu Qingli put away her hypocritical smile, her stunning face as cold as frost as she said sternly, "Tell me, what are the conditions? Will you help me?"

He stretched out his long arm and wrapped it around the end of Yu Qingli's hair. The soft touch made him unable to let go. A satisfied smile appeared on his lips, "Lili, if you had said so earlier, why would I refuse?"

Reaching out and pulling back the black hair from Murong Yanhui's hand, Yu Qingli looked at him coldly, "State the conditions!"

Looking at the few strands of hair stuck between his fingers, Murong Yan's eyes were filled with regret. He raised his head to glance at the indifferent Yu Qingli, then slowly spoke, "It's not difficult to ask me for help, but Lili, what benefits can you give me? Since this is business, I can't do business at a loss, right?"

Murong Yanhui kicked the ball back. He would not ask for it actively. What he wanted was the woman's initiative. He, Murong Yanhui, was always the one who enjoyed it!

Yu Qingli's expression changed. "Are you kidding me, Your Majesty?"

After staring at Murong Yan for a long while, Yu Qingli took two steps back. There was no hope in her eyes anymore. She turned around and walked out.

"where you go?!"

Murong Yanhui was a little surprised. Could it be that this woman had given up?

Yu Qingli looked back and smiled, as bright as a peach blossom. "Since Your Highness is so timid, then there is no need for me to continue wasting my time. I think Your Highness is not the only one in the world who is a member of the royal family. There are naturally people who can handle such a trivial matter."

Murong Yanhui's face turned pale when he heard this, but Yu Qingli continued to walk outside. From what she said, she was going to ask Murong Feng for help. Even if he was an abandoned child, the identity of the eldest prince would surely make these officials restrain themselves.

I hope she won't return empty-handed this time!
