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

Yu Qingli was dragged all the way to the carriage by Murong Feng. After both of them got on, Murong Feng's face became gloomy.

Yu Qingli did not say anything. She pulled her hand out from Murong Feng's hand without leaving a trace and sat opposite Murong Feng. In the dim carriage, she could not even see Murong Feng's face clearly, but she could keenly feel his anger.

As the lights come on, the night market in the imperial capital has begun. Small stalls are set up on both sides of the road, and the aroma of various snacks wafts in the air. The various hawking sounds make the entire imperial capital bustling with activity.

They were silent all the way until the carriage stopped at the gate of the prince's mansion. Murong Feng then ordered in a cold voice, "Qingli, don't go back yet. I have something to ask you."

"Yes!"

Yu Qingli agreed obediently, but she felt annoyed in her heart. Murong Feng was most likely talking about the merger of shops, and this was exactly what she didn't want to talk about the most.

The two of them got off the carriage together. Xiluo was already waiting, but Murong Feng ordered, "Xiluo, go back first. I have something to discuss with the princess."

Xiluo glanced at Yu Qingli and was obviously reluctant to leave. Without her by her side, she was really worried about the young lady's safety.

Xiluo's hesitation was seen by Murong Feng as a challenge to his authority, which was absolutely unacceptable. So Murong Feng frowned and said in a colder voice, "What? You can't obey my orders?"

Yu Qingli quickly took over and said, "Xiluo, you go back. I'll be back soon."

"Yes!"

Xiluo turned and left, and Yu Qingli followed Murong Feng towards the courtyard where he lived.

The lights in the courtyard have been lit, and the orange-red candlelight is reflected on the tall albizzia tree in the courtyard, casting shadows that are hazy and particularly alluring.

As soon as she entered the courtyard, Yu Qingli smelled a faint fragrance, which was stronger than the scent of flowers, but more elegant than sandalwood. It was very pleasant.

Murong Feng also paused, stood at the gate of the courtyard and waited for a while before walking towards the inner hall.

Yu Qingli curled her lips and sneered. She had just been assigned to this courtyard, but she had already started to make her presence felt in front of Murong Feng. She really should not be underestimated.

Murong Feng pushed open the door of the inner room, and a fresh and pleasant fragrance wafted into his nose, which was clearer and more alluring than the one in the courtyard. Looking in front of him, he saw a graceful and beautiful woman kneeling in front of him. Her long jet-black hair was tied into a beautiful bun, soft and shiny, making people want to reach out and touch it. Who else could it be but Shuyi?

Shu Yi was wearing a short, double-breasted peach dress with a slightly open neckline, revealing her delicate collarbone. Yu Qingli laughed to herself. If she still couldn't see Shu Yi's purpose now, her rebirth would have been in vain.

"This servant greets His Highness."

"Get up."

Compared to Shu Yi's half-hearted attitude, Murong Feng's attitude seemed a little cold, but in Yu Qingli's opinion, it was because of her presence.

Shu Yi stood up and saw Yu Qingli behind Murong Feng. She was obviously stunned for a moment, then said respectfully, "Greetings, Princess."

Murong Feng waved his hand and said, "Please leave. Qingli and I have something to talk about."

Shu Yi lowered her eyes, but her limbs were a little stiff. From an angle that Murong Feng couldn't see, her eyes were full of hatred, but she didn't show it in the end. She just retreated meekly. There was still a long way to go, and she still had plenty of opportunities!

After Shu Yi left, only Yu Qingli and Murong Feng were left in the huge inner hall. Yu Qingli was waiting, waiting for Murong Feng to speak to her.

Murong Feng did not directly bring up the topic with Yu Qingli, but took out a chessboard and placed it in front of Yu Qingli.

"Qingli, it's been a while since I last played chess with you. How about we play a round of hand-to-hand today?"

"Since Your Highness is so interested, Qingli will naturally obey your orders. However, I haven't played chess with anyone for a long time, so Your Highness, please show some mercy!"

"Qingli, I've always been familiar with your chess skills. You might not be my opponent."

Yu Qingli remained silent and just sat down opposite Murong Feng. One of them played white and the other played black, and they played chess seriously.

Murong Feng made his moves quickly and played a ruthless style of chess, completely different from his usual gentle self. As the saying goes, one's chess character reflects one's character. Yu Qingli didn't believe it before, but now it seems to be true!

Yu Qingli lost interest in the game, and the chessboard soon became a mess. Yu Qingli smiled bitterly and said, "Your Highness is really a dominant force today. Qingli admits defeat. Your Highness, if you have anything to say, please speak directly. It would be better for me to be so nervous."

Murong Feng then put down the chess piece in his hand. Perhaps the previous game of chess had dissipated some of Murong Feng's anger, and his expression looked better.

"Qingli, I am indeed angry today, but do you know what I am angry about?"

"I still hope for your guidance, Your Highness!"

"There's something you might not know. The Bai family and I share our fate. Otherwise, why do you think my mother's expenses in the palace have been so much better than those of other concubines over the years? Others think it's my maternal family's credit, but they don't know that in fact, all the money my mother used came from the Bai family."

Yu Qingli looked up at Murong Feng in surprise. In fact, she didn't expect Murong Feng to tell her about this, and her behavior seemed normal to Murong Feng.

Yu Qingli hesitated for a moment before asking, "Your Highness, what you mean is that the Bai family came to me today to discuss cooperation, is it actually your idea, right?"

"You can say that. Moreover, this kind of win-win situation is better for you than for others. With the protection of the Bai family, your business will flourish even more, Qingli."

Yu Qingli sneered in her heart, even if she really prospered, she would be sucked dry by this vampire.

Instead of making wedding dresses for others, it is better to stick to your own position!

Yu Qingli had made up her mind that she would never agree to any cooperation. No matter how the other party threatened or bribed her, her position would not waver.

But what makes Yu Qingli embarrassed now is that no matter how clearly she knows the pros and cons of this matter, she cannot directly reject Murong Feng's proposal on the surface.

"Qingli, please think carefully about this suggestion. It would be best if you could give me an answer as soon as possible."

Yu Qingli pursed her lips and said, "Yes!"

Yu Qingli returned to her yard in a bad mood. As soon as she entered, Xiluo mysteriously closed the door, and then a figure flashed out from the darkness.

Yu Qingli was stunned. "Changkong, why are you here? Did something happen to Murong Yanhui?"

"Don't worry, young lady. The prince is fine. I was ordered to come here for other matters."

Changkong took out a letter from his side and handed it to Yu Qingli. Yu Qingli took the letter and read it, and couldn't help but be surprised!

It turned out that Hu Da, who was rescued by Murong Yanhui, had woken up. After asking, Murong Yanhui learned that the soldiers in Murong Feng's underground city had not been living well in recent days. Many of them even had the idea of leaving. Murong Yanhui also learned about Murong Feng's shortage of funds.

Almost subconsciously, Murong Yanhui thought of Yu Qingli's shop. If Murong Feng wanted to make money, he might let Jinxiu Villa swallow up Yu Qingli's industry. With the fresh patterns and dye formulas in Yu Qingli's shop, they could make more and cheaper fabrics, thereby earning more profits.

Murong Yanhui knew the significance of these shops to Yu Qingli. Given Yu Qingli's personality, she would definitely not agree to Murong Feng's proposal. In order not to make Yu Qingli worry, he specially asked Changkong to come and talk to Yu Qingli.

Yu Qingli's mood was extremely complicated, and she was mostly moved. She had always wanted to be with one person for the rest of her life, but now, this person was so thoughtful and touching.

Yu Qingli suppressed the throbbing in her heart and asked seriously, "Did the prince say specifically what methods he has to deal with the Bai family?"

"The prince said that the only solution now is to remove the firewood from under the cauldron!"

Yu Qingli pondered for a moment, and it was indeed so. It seemed that now the only way to deal with the Bai family was to rely on the power of the emperor. If the emperor knew the existence of this army, he would definitely not let it go. However, if this happened, the Bai family would definitely be doomed to be confiscated and exterminated, and Queen Li and Murong Feng would also be implicated, and both himself and the Li family would be unstable.

Yu Qingli subconsciously glanced at her hands. Even if it was not her intention, these hands were bound to be stained with blood!

I didn't kill Bo Ren, but Bo Ren died because of me!

Yu Qingli felt a little reluctant. After all, she was not a cruel person, nor did she want to see bloodshed. She just wanted those who had hurt her to receive the punishment they deserved! She wanted these people to feel the pain she had experienced.

Yu Qingli thought for a moment and said to Changkong, "I want to see King Yan!"

"The prince had already guessed what the young lady was thinking, so he arranged for his subordinates to come and inform her. We will meet at the Beauty House tomorrow afternoon."

"it is good!"

Early the next morning, guests came to the prince's mansion. The arrival was both expected and unreasonable. All the brothers and sisters of the Bai family came to visit.

Yu Qingli sneered in her heart. It seemed that the Bai family was determined to obtain the cooperation!

Tea and cakes had already been served in the main hall. Murong Feng sat in the main hall, Bai Jinshu and Bai Jinqi sat on his left, and on his right were the two sisters of the Bai family.

When Yu Qingli arrived, the guests were chatting happily, and it was obvious that they had been talking for quite some time. When they saw Yu Qingli coming, everyone except Bai Jinshu stood up.

"Greetings, Princess. I apologize for disturbing you by coming here today."

"Thank you all for your kindness. It is an honor for our humble home to have such distinguished guests visiting us!"

Yu Qingli also spoke politely, then sat down next to Murong Feng and pretended to be puzzled and asked, "Is there something important that brought you all here today?"

Bai Jinshu was the first to speak, his handsome face showing a hint of joy. "Actually, I came here today for two reasons, both of which are happy. I wonder which one the princess would like to hear?"

Yu Qingli raised an eyebrow. "I'll listen to whatever Master Bai says. I'm really curious about what could possibly be so worthy of bothering Master to come personally to his residence."

Bai Jinshu smiled and said, "Firstly, I heard from His Highness that the Crown Princess has agreed to my proposal and agreed to cooperate with Jinxiu Villa. This is a happy event. Secondly, the main reason we came here today is to propose marriage for my younger brother."
