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

When Yu Qingli and the others returned to Zhang's house, Zhang's sister-in-law had just prepared a meal for them. While eating, they heard the Zhang family members chatting, saying that they met a strange person today. No one knew where she came from, and she actually claimed to be a princess.

As Zhang's sister-in-law spoke, she sighed, "Speaking of which, that woman is truly pitiful. She looks young and good-looking, but how could she have contracted such a mad disease?"

Yu Qingli's mind moved, and she couldn't help but ask, "What does that woman look like?"

Seeing Yu Qingli asking, Zhang's sister-in-law thought for a moment and then replied, "She does look quite refined, but a little slovenly."

"Could you please take me there?"

"Madam, are you interested in this girl? Could it be that you want to buy her as a maid? You know what? The residents around here are all speculating that she might be a maid from some wealthy family!"

Yu Qingli smiled but said nothing. She was just curious, and she had a vague feeling that this crazy woman might be someone they knew.

"Aunt Zhang, since Lili is interested in that person, I'll have to trouble you to go there."

"It's not a problem, it's not a problem. Madam is kind-hearted. It's just that the place where the madman lives is too shabby, and I don't know if he has any disease..."

"Don't worry, auntie. I've studied medicine for a few years, so there won't be any problems."

After hearing what Yu Qingli said, Aunt Zhang breathed a sigh of relief, and then took Yu Qingli and the others to a nearby dilapidated temple.

When the group arrived, it was already evening. The fiery sunset dyed the entire sky red, making it difficult to look away. It was a pity that they had no mind to appreciate such a beautiful scenery.

The place where Aunt Zhang took Yu Qingli and the others was a dilapidated temple, which was also a former charity cemetery. Normally, not many people would come here. Before the plague, this place was used to store corpses. But after the plague, the county magistrate ordered that all corpses must be handled by the government, so the charity cemetery became empty.

Yu Qingli stood at the slightly dilapidated door of the charity cemetery, looking up and looking around.

This charity cemetery was indeed in a state of extreme dilapidation. The thing that could be called a door was already in pieces, and most of the outer wall had already peeled off. There were cobwebs all around, and the air was dead and gloomy, which looked a bit creepy.

Yu Qingli and the others walked in. The charity cemetery was slightly better than they had imagined, at least not as dirty and messy as it looked from the outside. However, there were many people sitting or lying in groups of three or four. When they saw Yu Qingli and the others come in, they all stared at them with strange eyes.

"They all fled from other places and had nowhere else to go, so they settled here."

Mrs. Zhang lowered her voice to explain to Yu Qingli, who nodded slightly. The group of people in front of them were similar to the common people they had seen before, except that they were darker and thinner. Some of them were even skin and bones, and their eyes were a little dull.

Seeing someone coming in, a slightly older man walked over, but he had a limp in one leg and walked with some difficulty.

"Aunt Zhang, who are these people?"

"Lame Dad, they are guests staying at my house. They heard about what happened to that crazy girl and wanted to come and take a look."

Aunt Zhang seemed to be quite familiar with the people here. Sure enough, after she spoke, the wary eyes in the crowd became much less alert. Yu Qingli nodded slightly at the old man as a greeting. The old man was not polite either. He just looked Yu Qingli and others up and down, and then sighed.

"You're a little late. I'm afraid that woman really escaped from some wealthy family and has been taken away by someone just now."

Yu Qingli was a little surprised by the lame old man's words. Could it be that the so-called "madman" was really the person she thought he was?

Yu Qingli and Murong Yanhui beside her looked at each other and saw a hint of amusement in each other's eyes. If this was true, no one knew what had happened to Murong Feng and his group.

"In that case, Lili, you don't have to worry about it. If she's gone, then she's gone. Maybe her family is here to look for her? Although she might be your long-lost sister, we can't be sure." Murong Yanhui tried to find a way out for Yu Qingli so that the people in front of them wouldn't think their behavior was weird.

Aunt Zhang suddenly realized what was going on and said, "No wonder Madam is so concerned about this person. Is she actually looking for her lost sister?"

Yu Qingli responded softly, pretending to be a little disappointed, which made people more convinced.

Aunt Zhang comforted Yu Qingli for a few words, and then took Yu Qingli and the others away from the charity cemetery. What they didn't know was that less than 500 meters away from them, Lin Yutang was walking into a farmyard with the disheveled Murong Yuan.

However, after disappearing for a few days, Murong Yuan was completely different from her previous graceful and elegant self. Her hair was disheveled, her face was pale, and her clothes were already tattered. At first glance, she was no different from those disaster victims, and even looked more miserable than them.

"Your Highness, please go in first."

Lin Yutang sighed and walked into the courtyard with Murong Yuan. Since the day he was ordered to go out to look for Murong Yuan, the situation had been developing out of control.

First, they encountered bandits. Although the guards accompanying Lin Yutang were highly skilled in martial arts, they were no match for the bandits' large numbers and power. In addition, those so-called bandits were just common people from various regions in the south of the Yangtze River.

Lin Yutang felt sympathy for these people and only escaped with the guards instead of catching them all. Otherwise, how could the old, weak and sick people in the den of thieves resist them?

After escaping from the bandits, he wanted to send someone back along the same route to see if Murong Yuan had turned back, but he encountered a landslide and narrowly escaped death. He lost contact with Murong Feng. Fortunately, he had already decided on the destination before setting off, so Lin Yutang simply headed straight to Pei County.

Unexpectedly, an appointment is not as good as an accidental encounter. I don’t know whether Lin Yutang is too lucky or has a good character. As soon as he arrived outside the county, he met Murong Yuan who had been away for a long time. However, at this time, the high and mighty princess had turned from a phoenix into a pheasant.

Lin Yutang secretly laughed, but also felt that his behavior was somewhat immoral. Although Murong Yuan was interested in him and he had planned to use her, this princess was also an outlier.

Well, let's just consider it as a small compensation to her before he took advantage of her.

Thinking of this, Lin Yutang's attitude towards Murong Yuan improved a lot. At this time, Murong Yuan had undoubtedly regarded Lin Yutang as her savior, and he was also the one she loved. As a result, she became more and more dependent on Lin Yutang, and could be said to listen to Lin Yutang's words.

However, the experience along the way also frightened Murong Yuan. She was born into a noble family and had always been very favored. No matter where she went, there were guards following her. When had she ever suffered such humiliation? But to be honest, this was also her own fault. If she had not left without permission and without any guards, how could she have suffered the insults along the way.

So the moment she saw Lin Yutang, Murong Yuan felt extremely aggrieved and extremely happy. No matter what, Lin Yutang came to find her.

But Murong Yuanke couldn't care too much at the moment. The first thing she had to do was to wash herself properly, otherwise she would stink.

Fortunately, Lin Yutang knew the princess's character and bought a maid when he found her. Otherwise, such a lazy and ignorant princess would probably not even know how to keep herself clean.

Two full hours later, Murong Yuan finally packed up and walked out of the yard. The worn and dirty clothes on her body had been changed, and Murong Yuan had them burned. The new maid was also severely warned that if anyone dared to leak what happened today, she would be killed!

The maid who had just been bought was originally a country girl. She had never seen such a scene before. She could only nod her head repeatedly and dared not say a word. Murong Yuan was slightly satisfied when she saw this.

As she walked out of the courtyard, Murong Yuan saw a picture of a handsome man.

Lin Yutang was dressed in a long robe, and the light blue robe made him look more elegant, just like a proud green bamboo. His long black hair was neatly tied on his head. Perhaps because of the busy and tiring days, he had lost some weight, but his facial features had become more three-dimensional. At first glance, they looked as if they were carved with a knife.

Lin Yutang was half leaning against a big tree, his brows slightly furrowed, not knowing what he was thinking about. The sunlight fell dappled on his face, making him look bright yet sad, like a painting, close before his eyes yet out of reach.

"Cough cough..."

Murong Yuan coughed twice in a low voice. Lin Yutang raised his head when he heard the sound and saw Murong Yuan walking out of the inner room. Because she had just come out of the shower, her hair was still wet and draped loosely on her shoulders. There were some water stains on her shoulders, but Murong Yuan didn't care and just looked at Lin Yutang lovingly.

Lin Yutang felt a chill in his heart and quickly turned his gaze away, saying respectfully, "Your Highness, I'm sorry for the hardship you've endured. I've asked the kitchen to prepare a meal and we'll be eating soon."

"Thank you for your concern, sir. If you hadn't found me, I'm afraid I would..."

Murong Yuan's eyes turned red as she spoke, and she was also a little scared. Her experiences during this period could be compiled into a storybook, so her gratitude to Lin Yutang was real, and her good impression of him was naturally genuine as well.

Lin Yutang sighed and slowly stepped forward. "Your Highness, you are too kind. It is my honor to protect you. Besides, the Crown Prince is also very worried about you. You have indeed gone a little too far this time."

Murong Yuan lowered her eyes, her eyes red as she said, "I know I was wrong."
