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

Chen Simin's heart moved. From the tone of Mr. Huang, it seemed that he really wanted to make friends with him. Regardless of his identity, it was really difficult to meet someone who shared the same interests as him. How could he not agree?

So Chen Simin said straightforwardly, "How difficult is that? From the moment you considered me your friend, I've already been your friend. I'm just afraid I'm trying too hard to be your friend."

"There's no distinction between high and low. Since we're friends, just call me Ali."

"Then Ah Li, please don't call me Mr. anymore. I'm a few years older than you, so I'll shamelessly act like your big brother, okay?"

Yu Qingli smiled brightly, "Brother Chen is really humorous. I just gained a big brother for nothing, so I'm really the winner!"

Chen Simin also laughed and said cheerfully, "It's a pity there's no wine here, otherwise we would really like to raise our glasses and drink, and become sworn brothers."

"That's fine. If Brother Chen wants to become sworn brothers, I'll invite you later!"

"If anyone wants to treat you, it should be you, the eldest brother!"

As the two were talking, they heard Murong Feng's gentle laughter.

"In just a short while, Qingli, you've already become sworn brothers with Brother Chen? That's truly admirable!"

Xiluo, who was standing at the door, was the first to salute, "Your Highness!"

Chen Simin also showed surprise and asked, "Your Highness, why are you here?"

Upon hearing this, Yu Qingli immediately confirmed her guess. Sure enough, Chen Simin and Murong Feng already knew each other. Perhaps this person was already prepared to work for Murong Feng. It seemed that she had missed the opportunity.

There is not much point in making friends with someone who cannot be used for one's own benefit. Moreover, from Chen Simin's words, it can be seen that he is grateful to Master Bai and is very loyal to him. It is probably unlikely to completely win him over to work for one's own benefit.

Yu Qingli couldn't help feeling a little regretful, and a bit of loss appeared on her face.

Seeing this, Murong Feng asked, "What's wrong with Qingli? Are you unhappy to see me coming?"

Yu Qingli deliberately looked aggrieved and turned her head away to ignore Murong Feng. This behavior actually pleased Murong Feng very much. He quickly stepped forward and hugged Yu Qingli's slender waist, gently comforting her, "Okay, Qingli, how about I apologize to you? I went too far today. I agreed to accompany you out for fun, but ended up playing chess with Master Bai until now. I made you feel wronged."

Seeing the eldest prince in front of him being so humble and so intimate with this Young Master Huang, Chen Simin couldn't help but feel extremely embarrassed. Could this Young Master Huang be the prince's male favorite?

The corners of Chen Simin's eyes twitched, and when she looked at Yu Qingli again, there was a hint of regret and disdain in her eyes. Such a talented man actually gave himself to someone else, and it seemed to be voluntary. It really made people feel pity for his misfortune and angry at his lack of fighting spirit.

Yu Qingli didn't care about Chen Simin's opinion at this moment. After hearing Murong Feng's apology, she softened her expression and said, "Your Highness, there's no need to apologize. I was just being petty just now."

"As expected, Qingli, you are generous and decent. Unlike Zhenzhen, you get angry over such a small matter."

"Your Highness has misunderstood Sister Zhenfei. Sister came here on orders, so naturally she must return to report. I'm sure the Queen Mother is also anxious to see those fabrics."

"Forget it, let's not talk about her anymore. But why are you speaking so kindly of her today?" Murong Feng raised an eyebrow and teased, "Qingli, didn't you say you severed your relationship with the Prime Minister?"

Yu Qingli's face darkened as she said, "The disaster will not affect anyone else. Besides, has Your Highness ever heard me say anything bad about Concubine Zhen's sister?"

"Look at my mouth. I've made you angry again. Okay, I won't say any more. Since you already know Brother Chen, I won't introduce you any further."

Chen Simin was already sweating profusely at this time. When he didn't know Yu Qingli's identity, he was at ease and could even speak freely. But now, he was worried that he had said something he shouldn't have said. Thinking about it carefully, it seemed that he had not mentioned anything about the Grand Prince.

Murong Feng took a step forward, walked in front of Chen Simin and said, "Brother Chen, you don't just gain a new brother today, you gain a new sister!"

"My dear sister? Could this be... the eldest prince's wife?"

Chen Simin suddenly remembered that the Prime Minister's eldest daughter who had been so much talked about before was Yu Qingli. The person in front of her just now asked her to call him A Li, so who else could it be but the eldest prince's consort?

Chen Simin was surprised and at a loss whether to laugh or cry. Just now, she had actually thought that he was the eldest prince's male favorite. What was even more ridiculous was that she had been talking to this woman for a long time but had not realized that she was a woman. Now it seemed that although she was wearing men's clothes, she was much thinner than an ordinary man. She had previously thought that she was young and had not grown taller. She was really short-sighted.

Thinking of this, Chen Simin hurriedly saluted Yu Qingli and said, "Greetings to the Crown Prince's Consort."

Yu Qingli sighed, "Your Highness, look, since you came, Brother Chen has become estranged from me."

Murong Feng seemed to be in a good mood and thought that Yu Qingli was just acting coquettishly. Besides, Chen Simin was already his person and would know Yu Qingli's identity sooner or later. He was just letting Chen Simin know who his other master was in advance.

Chen Simin said awkwardly, "Your Highness's Consort is joking. How could I possibly deserve to be sworn brothers with Your Highness' Consort Yu? What I said just now was just a joke. I hope Your Highness's Consort won't take it personally."

Yu Qingli frowned. It seemed that Chen Simin valued his future very much and was even willing to kowtow for it. His current appearance was really disgusting. However, this man did have some talent.

Bai Jinshu, who came with Murong Feng, smiled and said, "Mr. Chen, don't refuse. Besides, you and Afeng have already sworn brotherhood, so his wife can naturally be considered your sister."

"What the owner of the manor said is true. In this way, we are all one family."

Murong Feng smiled widely, but Yu Qingli felt uncomfortable after hearing that. She didn't want to become a family with these people.

"It's getting late now. Dinner is ready. It's time for you brothers to have dinner," Bai Jinhua reminded.

Murong Feng smiled and said, "Now that you mention it, I'm really hungry. Qingli, you must try the Bai family's food. The chef here was once the royal chef in the palace. His food is exquisite and delicious."

"That's natural!"

Yu Qingli replied perfunctorily, and then she glanced around, but she didn't see Bai Jinqi and Bai Jinshi, which made her feel a little strange. Bai Jinhua, who was standing by, asked, "What happened to the princess?"

"Oh, nothing, I was just wondering where the Second Young Master and Third Young Miss went. Business in the mansion is so busy, don't they even have time to eat?"

"Thanks to the princess, my second brother and third sister have probably gone to the dining room first. We will be able to see them when we get there later."

Murong Feng turned his head to look at Yu Qingli, then asked curiously, "Qingli, you've never been too concerned about people or things, so why are you concerned about the second and third sons of the Bai family today?"

Yu Qingli smiled and said, "Maybe it's fate. Seeing how harmonious the Bai family is, I always feel a little envious. And Your Highness, have you forgotten that I own several shops? When I meet such a big businessman, I naturally want to learn some experience from him!"

Murong Feng didn't say anything else, but Bai Jinshu was very curious.

"The princess also owns a shop. I wonder what kind of business she does?"

"Just like Guizhuang, it mainly deals in fabrics and ready-made clothes, and also has a few small dyeing workshops."

"Oh? I didn't expect the princess to be from the same industry. How disrespectful!"

"No, it's just a small quarrel. Those are the dowry my mother left me. It would be a shame to sell them."

"I see."

Bai Jinshu understood, but did not ask any further questions. In his eyes, these small shops were nothing.

Yu Qingli smiled secretly. If Bai Jinshu knew that he was the owner of the dyeing factory whom he had previously asked for cooperation, he wondered what his expression would be.

The group soon arrived at the dining room. As expected, Bai Jinqi and Bai Jinshi were already waiting there. When they saw them come in, they bowed politely. After everyone was seated, the group prepared to eat.

Yu Qingli sat next to Murong Feng, and next to her sat Bai Jinhua and Bai Jinshi, followed by Bai Jinqi and Bai Jinshu. The six of them just formed a circle around the small table.

The food was served quickly, and it was indeed very exquisite, and most of them were the sweet and sour flavors that Murong Feng liked. This made Yu Qingli even more certain of one thing: this villa was indeed closely connected with Murong Feng, otherwise they would not know his taste so clearly.

Judging from Murong Feng's mood at the moment, something must have happened in this farm today that made him happy, or he must have heard some good news.

Yu Qingli was eager to know these things, but had to suppress her emotions temporarily. Murong Feng ate the meal with great joy, but Yu Qingli found it boring.

After dinner, everyone in the Bai family dispersed. Led by Bai Jinhua, Yu Qingli entered a courtyard. The courtyard was not too big, but it was decorated exquisitely and beautifully. What made Yu Qingli happiest was that the courtyard was not far from the library.

"Miss Jinhua, can I go to the library to read some books tonight?"

Bai Jinhua smiled and said, "The princess is truly studious. Haven't you seen enough during the day?"

Yu Qingli said a little embarrassedly: "I was so busy chatting with Brother Chen during the day that I didn't even look for the book I wanted to read. If it's inconvenient, then I won't go."

"It's not inconvenient at all. I'm just worried that the princess might not know the way around here. How about I take you to the library?"

"It's great to have you, Jinhua, leading the way. I'll just pick out two books and be back soon. I won't waste Miss Jinhua's time."

"Your Highness is so polite! My eldest brother is your Highness's sworn brother. We are all family after all!"

As Bai Jinhua spoke, she led Yu Qingli to the library.
