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

Chapter 359 People Should Not Be Greedy

Murong Shiling seemed quite satisfied with Concubine Yu's answer. "My beloved concubine is right. We should strictly abide by our duties in everything, make the best use of things, and serve our respective positions. This daylily grows in spring and summer, but it insists on coming to autumn to steal the limelight. Although it looks nice, it's not very appealing."

These suggestive words made Concubine Lin's face turn completely pale. She moved her lips but did not say anything else.

In fact, Concubine Lin was overthinking it. Murong Shiling was not talking to her. The person he really wanted to remind was Murong Yanhui. However, he did not expect that Murong Yanhui, who was supposed to follow closely behind him, was now far behind and was not far from Yu Qingli.

So, after Murong Shiling said this, his previously happy face became a little colder.

Everyone present couldn't help but sigh that serving the emperor is like serving a tiger. This saying is indeed true. In just a moment, the emperor's expression changed again and again, which was really embarrassing.

Murong Yanhui could not care about anything else at this time. His whole mind was on Yu Qingli. Ever since Yu Qingli appeared in front of him in a daze, he just wanted to find a place to have a good talk with Yu Qingli alone.

But it was obvious that Yu Qingli had no intention of paying attention to him at this time, and this was exactly why Murong Yan returned to Yu Zu.

When Murong Shiling looked over, Murong Yanhui was also feeling anxious. If it were his normal personality, he would have carried Yu Qingli on his shoulders and taken her away.

But he couldn't do that now. He couldn't do that in public, especially since Murong Shileng was here. Even if it wasn't for himself, he had to think carefully about Yu Qingli.

"Seventh brother, I asked you to come and see the daylilies, but why are you backing away?"

Murong Shiling's expression was obviously unfriendly, and his tone was a bit colder than usual. Eunuch Fu, who was standing beside him, subconsciously lowered his head. He knew that the emperor was angry.

As soon as Murong Shiling finished speaking, almost everyone's eyes fell on Murong Yanhui, and Yu Qingli next to him also caught everyone's attention.

Seeing that the two of them were not too far away, some rumors vaguely emerged.

Murong Shiling's specific mention of someone made it difficult for Murong Yanhui to dodge. He habitually put on a wicked smile, "Royal brother, you guys just watch for now. You know, compared to these flowers and plants, I prefer to flirt with flowers, especially, the beauty flower..."

These words were ambiguous, but they perfectly explained why he appeared next to Yu Qingli. However, it did not make people feel disgusted. After all, everyone knew that Prince Yan was a playboy.

"Nonsense!" Murong Shiling said coldly, "As the emperor's uncle, you can't even speak properly in front of this junior!"

Murong Yanhui touched his nose and said, "Your Majesty, your teaching is correct, but I have gotten used to it over the years. Why haven't you gotten used to it yet, Your Majesty?"

Murong Shiling immediately lost interest in strolling around the garden. He glanced at everyone gently and said, "I still have some memorials to review, so I'll be leaving now."

Everyone knelt and saluted, "Farewell, Your Majesty."

As soon as Murong Shileng left, Concubine Lin suddenly felt bored. After glaring at Concubine Yu, she quickly twisted her slender waist and left the imperial garden.

Concubine Yu was a little confused, and then she realized that Concubine Lin might have been holding a grudge against her for what she had said to Murong Shileng. She couldn't help but smile bitterly. The women in the harem could hold a grudge for just a single word. It was really enough!

Fortunately, she and Yu Qingli had agreed that she would leave the palace when necessary, so there was no need to engage in intrigue with these women.

However, she always felt that Yu Qingli was a little strange today. Although Concubine Yu was puzzled, she could not go forward to ask in order to avoid suspicion, so she left quietly. For a while, only Yu Qingli and Murong Yanhui were left in the Imperial Garden.

Several palace maids were still following him, but Murong Yanhui dismissed them casually. Then his face turned cold and he dragged Yu Qingli away.

Yu Qingli was still lost in her own thoughts. Today's discovery had left her feeling awful, and she even began to doubt herself. What was the point of her rebirth? If the person who had hurt her wasn't who she thought they were, how would she face that person in the future?

Murong Feng, no matter in the past life or this life, seems to be her disaster!

"Lili, what's wrong with you?"

Undisguised concern appeared on that enchanting face, and the charming peach blossom eyes were rarely serious. The long eyelashes flickered in front of Yu Qingli's eyes, making her already confused heart even more at a loss.

"I..." I had so much to say but I didn't know how to say it.

Seeing Yu Qingli like this, Murong Yanhui did not rush to urge her, but just waited quietly. He vaguely felt that Yu Qingli would definitely tell him something.

Yu Qingli was trying to organize her words in her mind, but she didn't know where to start. "Actually, I did encounter some things, but I don't know where to start."

"It doesn't matter. I have plenty of time. As long as you are willing to talk, Lili, I am willing to listen."

Yu Qingli looked up in confusion, and met Murong Yanhui's determined eyes. She was stunned for a moment, and a very firm word suddenly emerged in her mind, "Tell him!"

But soon, Yu Qingli suppressed this thought. Would he believe such an incredible thing? Moreover, Yu Qingli, who had long been accustomed to hiding her pain alone, really found it difficult to expose everything to this man. Although she admitted that she was now, she had indeed been moved by this cynical King Yan!

"Lili?"

Seeing the expression on Yu Qingli's face changing rapidly, Murong Yanhui became extremely anxious, and his handsome eyebrows couldn't help but frown. Where Yu Qingli couldn't see, his fists were clenched tightly, and his palms were full of sweat. He was gambling, gambling on how much position he occupied in Yu Qingli's heart.

Although he could investigate Yu Qingli's abnormality, she still hoped that Yu Qingli could tell her in person.

Looking at the blazing light in his eyes, as bright as the stars in the sky, yet shining with unquestionable determination, Yu Qingli felt that she had suddenly calmed down.

Wait! Did she make a mistake?

How could Murong Feng be a two-faced person? Thinking back to the symptoms of the two-faced person he had seen before, although it was very similar to Murong Feng's current condition, there were also differences, especially Murong Feng said that it was because he was deposed as the crown prince by the emperor that he became disgusted with the world and created another self.

This was completely different from the Murong Feng she knew.

Although Murong Feng is resourceful but not courageous, it definitely does not mean that he is a coward. Otherwise, he would not have chosen to cultivate himself and keep a low profile in his previous life. He is an extremely ambitious person and will never be mentally traumatized by a demotion. He even made up a character himself. Thinking of the most likely hypothesis, Yu Qingli narrowed her eyes.

The red eyes no longer had the previous confusion, but were burning with boundless anger and hatred. She was so stupid. How could she be so easily fooled after living a new life?

Yu Qingli clenched her fists, her nails digging deep into the flesh, and even the pain was not so obvious.

Murong Yanhui sighed inwardly, wondering what secret this woman was hiding from him. Seeing her furious expression, he wished he could empathize with her, but he had a vague feeling that perhaps it was not the right time yet, and Lili had not truly accepted him.

It was not until she was embraced by a warm embrace that Yu Qingli was completely freed from her emotions. Her eyes regained clarity, but they were also calmer and more composed than before.

"Lili, although I don't know what happened to you, please believe that my feelings for you are real. No matter what happens, I will stand by your side. One day, you will open your heart and tell me everything I want to know."

Murong Yanhui's tone was unexpectedly calm, yet revealed a firmness that could not be refused, which made the last trace of confusion in Yu Qingli's heart disappear without a trace.

Yu Qingli looked up at the man before her. Now that she'd made a new choice, why was she still so hesitant? He'd even been swayed by Murong Feng's words. How ridiculous! Was it because her obsession in her past life was too strong, or had the smooth progress of recent days made her lose her guard?

No matter which point it was, it made her so embarrassed that she wanted to die!

She sympathized with her enemy and didn't even realize that it was just a trick of the other party. It seemed that even after being reborn, she was still too soft-hearted.

Murong Yanhui was not in a hurry, and it seemed that being anxious was useless. His Lili had always been a woman with strong opinions. Any rash action would only make her drift further away from him.

Although he didn't know what her ultimate goal was, he had already decided to protect her with everything he had!

Yu Qingli had completely calmed down. She bit her lip and said palely, "Murong Yanhui, there are some things I can't tell you right now, but I need your help now!"

Seeing Yu Qingli's serious look and the way she addressed him, Murong Yanhui agreed without even thinking about it.

This surprised Yu Qingli greatly, and she felt a sense of guilt for no reason. This man was so wholeheartedly devoted to her, but she only wanted to use him.

Yu Qingli bit her lip and swore in her heart that if she could get her revenge one day, maybe she would really find a beautiful place with mountains and rivers with this man, where they could farm and weave, and spend their lives together. But not now!

A trace of gloom flashed across Yu Qingli's eyes, because of her own momentary stupidity and Murong Feng's cunning.

However, Yu Qingli was even more worried. Did Murong Feng do this because he had sensed her hostility? Or was this an instinctive test?

No matter which one it was, Yu Qingli was certain of one thing: Murong Feng was more difficult to deal with than she had imagined! And he seemed to be wary of her!
