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

Chapter 208: Emperor Yan

As Concubine Lin spoke, she winked at Murong Cheng. Murong Cheng respectfully bowed to Empress Li and said, "In that case, I will take my leave."

Queen Li nodded, and was very satisfied with the result, because what was going to happen next was very secretive, and it would be best if no outsiders were present.

After everyone left, Queen Li said to Master Qiu Chan, "Master, are you ready for everything I told you about earlier?"

Qiu Chan nodded slightly, "Your Majesty, please follow me!"

Empress Li still held Yu Qingli's hand and turned to say, "Qingli, please come in with me. Let your maid wait outside for a while."

Yu Qingli glanced at Xiluo, who nodded and stood aside politely, not moving at all. Yu Qingli followed Queen Li to the side hall.

Yu Qingli discovered that in addition to them, there was also a eunuch accompanying them. Yu Qingli had a vague impression that this eunuch seemed to be someone close to the emperor. It seemed that the emperor was worried that Queen Li would commit fraud and favoritism.

This Murong Shiling is indeed very suspicious.

The group entered the side hall together. There was a table in the hall. On the table was a green bamboo tube with bamboo sticks inside.

Yu Qingli looked at Queen Li in feigned confusion. Queen Li smiled and said, "Qingli, don't be nervous. It's just a lottery. Your aunt wants to ask your fortune for you."

Yu Qingli nodded obediently, and Queen Li let go of her hand. Master Qiu Chan looked at Yu Qingli steadily, with a hint of compassion in his eyes, but it disappeared in an instant, as if Yu Qingli was dazzled by the sight just now.

He pulled out a stick from the bamboo and handed it to Master Qiu Chan with both hands, with a very respectful attitude.

"Master, how is it?!" Queen Li's tone was somewhat anxious. She didn't know what the result would be.

Master Qiu Chan took the bamboo stick, and a hint of confusion flashed across his clear eyes, but he quickly regained his composure. "Congratulations, young lady! It's an excellent sign!"

Queen Li was delighted when she heard this and asked, "What does this sign mean?"

Master Qiu Chan smiled and said, "In fact, the fortune teller himself can interpret this."

As Qiu Chan spoke, he handed the bamboo stick to Queen Li. When Queen Li saw the three words on the stick, she was stunned at first, and then a look of joy spread across her face. It was this stick?!

It’s the Emperor’s Swallow!

Queen Li glanced at Yu Qingli with joy. It seemed that she had a very good vision!

Memories flooded into her mind like a tide. That year, Li Baiyin was only seventeen years old. Her father went to Beijing for business and brought her and her sisters to visit the capital. She and her sister came to the Fahua Temple to burn incense. Out of curiosity, they asked for divination to inquire about their marriage.

Both of them drew the best lots. The elder sister drew the Double Flying Swallow, while hers was the Emperor Swallow. It was Master Qiu Chan who interpreted the lot for them at that time. Whoever draws the Emperor Swallow is the destined goddess, and whoever gets this girl will get the world!

On that day, she met Murong Shiling who was visiting Fahua Temple!

Today, when Empress Li got the Imperial Swallow again, she felt as if she had taken a reassurance pill.

What do you mean by destiny?! It's likely that someone in the Yu Mansion wants to frame Yu Qingli.

No! It seems that from today on, she has to take good care of her granddaughter and protect her well before Murong Feng takes the throne!

His heart was churning, but he remained expressionless. He simply put the bamboo stick back into the bamboo tube and patted Yu Qingli's hand. "Okay, Qingli, go and rest first. I still have something to say to the master."

Yu Qingli turned and left, and the eunuch who was accompanying him also walked out. His Majesty's order was that they only needed to know whether the lot they drew was good or bad, and just now, he had heard that it was an excellent lot!

After Yu Qingli left, Queen Li's expression became serious, "Master Qiu Chan, I have a favor to ask of you."

"Your Majesty, you are too kind. If you have any questions, please give them to me."

"I hope that Master can keep today's incident a secret. If anyone asks, just say that Qingli is destined to great wealth and honor."

Qiu Chan nodded, "Don't worry, Madam. This is a serious matter, and I know what to do."

Only then did Queen Li feel relieved. She had known Master Qiu Chan for many years and could trust him. If it were anyone else, she would have ordered him to be killed long ago.

If Emperor Yan reappears, it will probably cause new disputes in the already serious situation in the palace. Especially if the prince's party knows about the destined girl, it will only cause unnecessary trouble.

And this is something she extremely doesn't want to see.

As for Yu Qingli, after she came out of the side hall, Xiluo, who was waiting outside, hurriedly greeted her, "Miss!"

"I'm fine, I just went to draw lots." Yu Qingli looked at the worry in Xiluo's eyes and couldn't help but explain.

Xiluo finally felt relieved. The queen's sudden action really scared her. She even hesitated whether to tell her master. Fortunately, it was just a false alarm.

Yu Qingli walked along the stone road covered with fallen leaves, and soon, danger was about to come!

"Xiluo, do you remember what I told you before?"

Xiluo nodded, but was a little unconvinced. The young lady was worrying too much. The guards were so strict, how could someone sneak in and assassinate the queen? But since the young lady said so, she would be more vigilant.

The master and servant walked forward together and soon arrived at the wing rooms. The guards were standing outside the courtyard. For safety reasons, the wing rooms for the female members were arranged in the innermost courtyard. In the outer courtyard were the rooms of Murong Feng and Murong Cheng, and the outermost ones were guarded by the guards.

The courtyard is divided into two wings, east and west. The Queen and Concubine Lin live in the east wing, while Murong Yuan and Yu Qingli live in the west wing.

There are heavy iron doors between each courtyard, and the door locks and keys are also kept by the accompanying eunuchs. Overall, it is very safe.

But soon, Yu Qingli felt that this arrangement was really not at all desirable. When she pushed open the door of the compartment, she saw someone lying on the wooden bed that should have belonged to him.

"Lili..."

Seeing Yu Qingli come in, Murong Yanhui, who was lying down, sat up suddenly with his eyes shining. Yu Qingli couldn't help but frown. How did this person get in?

Xiluo stepped forward and bowed, "Greetings, Your Majesty."

Murong Yanhui only nodded slightly, then turned and said, "Lili, won't you say hello to me?"

Yu Qingli was speechless and walked straight to the table and sat down. "What are you doing here?"

"Of course it's for blessing?!"

Murong Yan replied as if it was a matter of course, but Yu Qingli glanced at him with a hint of disdain. "Even the unruly Prince Yan would come to the temple to pray?! Is he praying that he won't get syphilis?"

"Hahaha..." Murong Yan laughed, "I haven't seen you for a few days. Lili, you have become more humorous."

Yu Qingli snorted coldly, "Boring! Tell me, why are you here?"

A thought flashed through Yu Qingli's mind. Could it be that his appearance was related to that incident? Her expression turned cold. How could it be?!

While she was dazed, a handsome face suddenly appeared in front of her. "Lili, what are you thinking about so seriously?! Okay, I admit it. Actually, I came here because I wanted to see you."

Yu Qingli's ears turned slightly red. Why was this man so frank? His frankness was so depressing.

While observing Yu Qingli's expression, Murong Yanhui's beautiful peach blossom eyes were full of charm, "Lili, are you blushing?"

Yu Qingli hurriedly suppressed her expression. What was she doing?! Now was not the time to think about these things.

"Your Majesty, please respect yourself. This is a sacred Buddhist place."

Yu Qingli slapped away Murong Yanhui's hand that was trying to reach her waist, her face darkening. Seeing her so energetic, Murong Yanhui felt relieved. It was really that she had made him worry for nothing.

When Murong Yanhui learned that Yu Qingli was invited to the temple, he couldn't feel at ease. Thinking of what Yu Qingli had experienced in the temple before, he was still frightened. Even he felt this way, let alone Yu Qingli who had experienced this personally.

He immediately asked Murong Shileng for permission, saying that he also wanted to play in the temple. After Murong Shileng agreed, he came to the mountain early to avoid Murong Yuan's entanglement.

Seeing Murong Yanhui's serious expression, Yu Qingli asked curiously, "What's wrong?"

Murong Yanhui quickly shook his head. Since Yu Qingli had already gotten over the hurdle in her heart, there was naturally no need for him to bring up the past again.

"Lili, do you hate me so much?" Murong Yanhui suddenly said seriously.

Yu Qingli's heart moved, and she felt a little reluctant, but she just said lightly: "If the prince abides by the etiquette, he will naturally not be annoying."

"If I were to strictly adhere to etiquette, I'm afraid I'd never be able to get this close to you, Lili, in my lifetime, right?"

"This……"

Yu Qingli looked at Murong Yanhui in front of her, and a hint of gloom flashed across her eyes, which were always bright, making people feel distressed.

Yu Qingli turned her face away involuntarily. She couldn't be soft-hearted!

A sigh sounded in her ears, and when she turned around, Murong Yanhui had already left. If it weren't for the messy marks on the bed, Yu Qingli would even think that everything that had just happened was just a dream.

What a rush!

Yu Qingli looked at the empty room in a daze. Why did she suddenly feel that the room was too empty? But what on earth was Murong Yanhui here for?

Murong Yanhui's worried eyes flashed through Yu Qingli's mind, and she suddenly understood the reason. He actually came to Fahua Temple for such a reason. This man... really made it impossible for her to be heartless!

"Xiluo, tell me, am I too ruthless?" Yu Qingli said to herself.

Xiluo on the side remained silent. She knew that the young lady didn't want an answer, she just wanted someone to listen to her.

Yu Qingli did not continue to dwell on it. Even if she was ruthless, at least she would not involve many innocent people in her revenge plan.

So Yu Qingli spent the whole afternoon reading in the side room, but she only turned the pages from beginning to end.
