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

Chapter 557: Breaking into Prince Yan’s Mansion (1)

Changkong dismounted with a serious face. His murderous expression did not seem like he was here to deliver a letter but rather to seek revenge. He went all the way to the private room on the second floor and respectfully reported to Yu Qingli after seeing her.

"Miss, you are so polite. The prince has something to do today and cannot come to see you. You should go back first. It is best not to come to the Beauty House again in the next few days!"

Yu Qingli was stunned. This was unprecedented. Murong Yanhui had always done things properly and had never broken an appointment before. Could something have happened today?

Thinking of this, Yu Qingli's expression became more serious. "Changkong, tell me the truth. Why can't the King of Yan come to see me? Is it because his injury hasn't healed yet?"

"Don't worry, my lady. The prince's injuries are no longer serious."

"If that's the case, why doesn't he come here in person? Didn't he ask you to come here yesterday?"

"That being said, the situation has changed, and Your Highness has no choice but to do so!"

Changkong seemed to have made up his mind and was determined not to tell Yu Qingli about this matter. Yu Qingli became more and more anxious. It was really frustrating that both of them were so secretive.

Yu Qingli stared at Changkong, "Changkong, if you don't tell me, I will go and ask you myself!"

Changkong still had no expression on his face. "Miss, please don't ask. Some things are better to be completely unknown than to know them!"

After Changkong finished speaking, his gaze fell on Xiluo's face, and his voice softened a bit, "Have you decided?"

Xiluo nodded, his eyes determined!

"Alright! If you don't complete the mission before your wedding, I'll end it in another way!" Changkong said calmly, "You're on your own!"

Xiluo nodded heavily, "I will live well before that!"

Changkong looked at her again, then turned around and left gracefully. Yu Qingli in the room was confused. She thought that coming to see Murong Yanhui would help her figure out the cause and effect of the matter, but she became even more confused.

It was so frustrating! It seemed like she was the only one being kept in the dark. What on earth did Murong Yanhui think of her? A flower in a greenhouse?

Thinking of this, Yu Qingli's brows couldn't help but furrow, her expression darkened a bit, and she felt a little confused. They all said that it was for her own good, but this kind of good was not what she wanted! What she wanted was the joy of fighting side by side, even if there was pressure, even if there were difficulties, they could face it together, instead of her being alone here with her imagination.

Seeing that Yu Qingli was in a bad mood, Qu Linlang sighed inwardly and asked someone to bring a pot of the best flower wine and placed it in front of Yu Qingli.

"Sister Qingli, since you have questions in your heart, why not clarify them? Although life is rarely muddled, I think people should always live with clarity!"

Qu Linlang poured her some wine. The aroma of the wine was so fragrant that it only strengthened Yu Qingli's confidence. She picked up the glass and drank it all in one gulp. "Thank you, sister. I know what to do now."

Yu Qingli put down her wine glass, turned around and told Xiluo, "Let's go! Let's go to Prince Yan's Mansion!"

Ever since Yu Qingli came to the capital, she has been living in the palace most of the time. After Murong Feng moved out of the palace, she has been living in the prince's mansion. She has never been to the Prince of Yan's Mansion once. I wonder how it compares to the Prince of Yan's Villa in Jiangnan?

Yu Qingli and Xiluo arrived at the gate of the Prince Yan's mansion together, only to see that there were many soldiers surrounding the huge Prince Yan's mansion. Yu Qingli was shocked. Could something have happened to Murong Yanhui?

Could it be that Murong Shiling finally couldn't help himself and attacked Murong Yanhui? But on second thought, it didn't make sense. Murong Shiling had tolerated Prince Yan for so many years, there was no reason for him to attack Prince Yan for no reason.

Yu Qingli calmed herself down as quickly as possible, parked the carriage in the corner, and motioned Xiluo to go forward and see what was going on.

Xiluo walked up to a guarding soldier and said in a soft voice, "Brother Soldier, what's going on here? Can we go in?"

The soldier glanced at Xiluo coldly and urged her rudely, "Go away! What are you asking about? You are not allowed to enter or leave here now!"

Xiluo said with a face full of grievance: "Brother Bing, I came here to seek refuge with my relatives. My relatives work in this mansion, and now they are not allowed to enter. I will have to sleep on the streets today!"

"I don't care where you stay! Hurry up and leave! Otherwise I won't be polite!"

A soldier nearby quickly pulled the soldier who was speaking and said, "Why are you so fierce to a woman? Look at this little girl, she's almost crying because of you. Come back later, little girl. There's an important person coming to the palace now, and you may not be able to get in for a while.

"Then, could you please, Brother Bing, pass the message in for me? I can also ask my relatives to come out and see me!"

"This one……"

The soldier looked a little embarrassed, and at this time, the previous soldier spoke again: "Why are you whining? I told you to come in a moment, so come in a moment. If you keep talking nonsense, I will arrest you!"

Xiluo then left with red eyes, looking back every few steps. When she reached the corner, she got on the carriage without anyone noticing.

Yu Qingli was extremely anxious. As soon as Xiluo showed up, she reached out and grabbed her, "What's going on?"

Xiluo shook her head. "The guards only said there was an important person inside, but now no one is allowed to enter or leave the Prince of Yan's Mansion. Even sending a message is prohibited. This situation is really a bit strange. Miss, what kind of important person in the imperial capital is more important than the prince and has so many guards when he goes out? Could it be the emperor? But what is the emperor doing here?"

Yu Qingli thought about it. If Murong Shileng came out, he would not bring so many soldiers with him in such a high-profile manner. The only possibility was that the person who came out was not Murong Shileng. Then it could only be another person, Queen Dowager Qin!

As for the Queen Mother's purpose in coming here, Yu Qingli really couldn't guess. After thinking for a moment, she asked, "Xiluo, are you familiar with this palace?"

"It's quite familiar. Miss, do you want to go in?"

"That's right, can you do it?"

"I'm afraid it's a bit difficult now. We might as well wait a little longer. It will be more convenient to act after dark!"

Yu Qingli knew that Xiluo's suggestion was right, but if they waited until dark, the people inside might have already left. By then, it would be extremely difficult to find out the truth of the matter!

However, Yu Qingli did not dare to take risks with Xiluo. Once they were discovered, they would be in a passive position.

At this moment, Xiluo's attention was attracted by two figures. The two people were wearing ordinary maid's clothes, one green and one yellow. They were holding a lot of fresh fruits in their hands and walked towards the side door of the palace.

Xiluo's heart moved, and he tugged at Yu Qingli and said, "Miss, look, do those two look like the maids in the mansion?"

Yu Qingli glanced at Xiluo and couldn't help but applaud Xiluo's sharpness. She leaned over and whispered a few words in Xiluo's ear, and Xiluo nodded repeatedly.

In a flash, Xiluo stopped the two maids.

"Sisters, please stay!"

The maid in green stopped first and asked cautiously, "Who are you? What's the matter?"

Xiluo smiled and said, "Don't be afraid, sister. This is what happened. My daughter is out shopping. It's so hot, and I forgot to prepare some fruits in the car. And now she's thirsty. I wonder if you two sisters could be kind enough to sell us some fruits!"

"That won't do!" The yellow-robed maid standing by decisively refused. "This is for my family's use. If you want it, just go buy it yourself."

Xiluo looked embarrassed and kept begging for mercy, "Sister, I'm willing to pay a high price. My young lady is really suffering from a fever. If she gets a fever, I'm afraid the master will beat me to death when I get back!"

The maid in green and the maid in yellow exchanged a glance and said to Xiluo, "Wait a moment, let us discuss this."

Seeing this, Xiluo hurriedly said, "Sisters, please hurry up. My young lady must be getting anxious waiting."

The two men gathered together, and the maid in green whispered, "The clothes on this woman are quite good. In this imperial capital, a maid who can afford to wear such clothes must be of high status. I think we should sell some fruits to her."

The maid in yellow disagreed, saying, "The mansion is also waiting for these fruits! Otherwise, we wouldn't have to go out to the farm to buy them."

"I don't think the young lady can eat much. We bought a lot anyway. Giving her some can exchange for some silver. What's wrong with that?"

The two maids were whispering to each other, thinking that no one knew what they were saying. Little did they know that Xiluo had already heard their words and only found them amusing to herself.

After a moment, the maid in green turned around and said, "Well, you don't look like bad people, so I'll sell you some fruits."

"Thank you two sisters!"

As Xiluo spoke, he pulled out two ingots of silver from his side. "This is a little hard work fee for the two sisters. We are sorry that you have been delayed for so long. However, I will trouble you again to bring the fruits to the front of the carriage and let my young lady choose for herself."

The maid in yellow muttered, "What a trouble." But she still followed Xiluo with the fruits in her hand.

When they arrived at the car, Xiluo knocked the two maids unconscious without waiting for them to speak, and also pressed their acupoints.

Next, Yu Qingli and Xiluo quickly changed into the clothes of the two maids and walked towards the side door of the palace carrying baskets of fruits.

"Stop! What are you doing?"

The guards at the side door stopped Yu Qingli and the other two. Yu Qingli smiled and said, "Guard brother, your memory needs to be improved. Didn't we just pass by here? Brothers, you forgot that the prince asked us to go to the farm to buy some fresh fruits to entertain the guests!"

Xiluo quickly took out two sweet fruits from the basket and stuffed one into each of the two guards. "It must be because the weather is too hot. You two brothers are tired. Eat some fruits to quench your thirst. There are plenty of them here!"

The two guards quickly reached out to take it, with a smile on their faces, "So it's the two girls from the kitchen. Come in quickly, they must be waiting anxiously inside."
