Chapter 237 A couple of dogs and men
Yu Qingli didn't know any martial arts and was just a weak woman. Even if she ran wildly in extreme fear, she couldn't run far.
In such a long and silent night, what could be more clearly heard by Murong Yanhui than the sound of light footsteps?
A relieved smile appeared on Murong Yanhui's lips, and he dived towards the source of the sound. His figure was like a flying roc, and with a clear target, he caught up with Yu Qingli in a few takeoffs and landings.
Murong Yanhui's mood had been up and down after tonight, but now, stimulated by Chunhua, he became much more sober.
Instead of being entangled in what has been lost and what has not been obtained, it is better to grasp the present and cherish the person in front of him. Even if Yu Qingli doesn't like him, even if he is really inferior to Murong Feng in some aspects, he will accept it.
He believed that as long as he worked hard, Yu Qingli would eventually accept him. Thinking of this, Murong Yan, who had originally tried to stop Yu Qingli, hesitated for a moment and then followed quietly.
Perhaps, it would be good to let Yu Qingli calm down for a while.
Murong Yanhui followed Yu Qingli quietly, watching her slowly become unable to run anymore, reaching out to hold on to the wall, gasping for breath.
After Yu Qingli took a breath for a while, she looked back and saw that the courtyard was deserted and there was no one. Yu Qingli finally let go of her worries.
Murong Yanhui didn't chase after him, which was somewhat inconsistent with his character.
Yu Qingli thought to herself, then looked up to identify the direction. She had run so far without realizing it. Not far ahead, there was a courtyard that was faintly visible. It turned out to be Murong Feng's bedroom.
The familiar Albizia Julibrissin tree rustled in the night wind. Like the entire palace, Murong Feng's bedroom was already decorated with red and colorful decorations, looking very festive. The big red lanterns, various colored lights, and red curtains were so dazzling in Yu Qingli's eyes at this moment.
Thinking that this would be where she and Murong Feng would sleep tomorrow, she felt inexplicably depressed and instinctively wanted to leave.
Go back? What if Murong Yanhui is still there? Yu Qingli's eyes flashed with hesitation, but if she went to find Murong Feng, it seemed very inappropriate.
Yu Qingli hesitated in her heart, her steps stretching and retracting. Murong Yanhui squatted on the eaves and watched Yu Qingli's hesitation. She felt that her heart was also going up and down with Yu Qingli's steps.
While Yu Qingli was hesitating, she suddenly saw a faint candlelight in the room in front of her, and then a graceful figure was projected on the window. The curvy figure was elongated by the candlelight, and her slender waist twisted like a beautiful snake.
Her long hair fell down as she twisted her body, as if she was acting coquettishly to someone.
Yu Qingli felt a chill in her heart, and subconsciously hid in the shadow of a tree, hiding herself completely under the shadow.
Yu Qingli's eyes were burning, all her attention was attracted by that figure. She saw the woman hesitate for a moment, and another strong figure also stood up.
The sturdy figure was a man. He put his arms around the woman's waist, and the two of them whispered in each other's ears for a while. Then the man gently kissed the woman on the lips, and the woman put on her clothes with satisfaction.
Yu Qingli frowned slightly. Could it be Murong Feng? But who would Murong Feng be hanging out with on the eve of his wedding?
Yu Qingli watched calmly, she didn't move, but Murong Yanhui on the rockery couldn't suppress her anger.
The woman he couldn't get was about to become Murong Feng's wife, but this man treated Yu Qingli like this and was still hanging out with other women on the eve of the wedding.
Murong Yanhui felt sorry for Yu Qingli, but he was full of hope to win back Yu Qingli's heart. Perhaps, he should thank Murong Feng for his infidelity. Since Murong Feng did not know how to cherish her, then he didn't need to be polite!
With a creaky sound, the two doors opened slightly. A figure quietly stuck his head out and looked around. Then he turned around and said, "I'm leaving."
The woman had her back to the dim candlelight, and Yu Qingli couldn't see her face clearly. However, when her very soft voice reached Yu Qingli's ears, a knowing smile appeared at the corner of her lips.
Mei Hong! She finally took action!
How could Yu Qingli, who was reborn, not know that Mei Hong, a scheming woman, had used all means to cling to Murong Feng in her previous life and climbed into Murong Feng's bed. From then on, she became a phoenix and made things difficult for herself everywhere.
Now, the past is repeating itself. Yu Qingli is not surprised, but filled with hatred! Although she already knew that Mei Hong would betray her, she has always been kind to her since her rebirth. She only hopes that Mei Hong will find her conscience and serve her loyally.
However, it is difficult to change one's nature.
Mei Hong couldn't resist the temptation of power after all. She was not satisfied with just being a shadow behind others. She wanted to get to the top with her own strength.
Yu Qingli thought to herself, a hint of cruelty flashed across her eyes.
This time, how could she allow others to pinch her again?
Yu Qingli was thinking about something, staring motionlessly ahead, her gaze fixed on the void. However, from Murong Yan's perspective, Yu Qingli could not stand such a blow. She stared blankly at Mei Hong and Murong Feng cuddling in the slightly opened door for a while, and then Mei Hong reluctantly and quietly left Murong Feng's room.
Murong Yanhui gradually exerted force on the hand that was supporting the rockery. His fingers, with white knuckles but immense strength, crushed the rockery under his fingers into powder with a "snap".
Murong Yanhui exerted such force that his feet naturally exerted force, and countless pieces of gravel slid down and hit the ground, making an extremely obvious sound.
"Who is it?!" Murong Feng opened the door and shouted angrily. Murong Yanhui immediately crouched behind the rockery. Yu Qingli was frightened and hid herself even more in the darkness.
Murong Feng frowned slightly, and finally shouted: "Someone come! Go and see what's going on!"
As soon as Murong Feng finished speaking, five or six guards ran out with sticks in their hands. Murong Yan looked back at Yu Qingli who was hiding in the shadows, frowned, and flew over the branches and shadows of the trees like a swallow, and grabbed Yu Qingli's waist.
Yu Qingli was startled and turned around to see that it was Murong Yanhui. Somehow, her heart suddenly relaxed, but then it became nervous again.
Murong Yanhui said before Yu Qingli could speak: "You left because of me, I just sent you back."
Murong Yanhui's voice deliberately carried a hint of alienation, and Yu Qingli stopped struggling after hearing that.
Murong Yanhui lowered his head and glanced at Yu Qingli, thinking that Yu Qingli was sad about Murong Feng's behavior. His heart suddenly felt as if it was stabbed by someone, and it hurt deeply.
Such pain was unfamiliar to Murong Yanhui, but it was also unbearable for him. The pain seemed to penetrate into his bones, destroying all his will and emotions from within his body.
He loved her, and she chose him. Now, he betrayed her. How ironic.
Murong Yanhui felt conflicted. On the one hand, she was happy that Murong Feng destroyed the Great Wall himself, but on the other hand, she felt sad for Yu Qingli because of Murong Feng's behavior.
"Thank you, uncle." Yu Qingli said softly.
Murong Yanhui's pupils shrank, but in the end she gritted her teeth and said nothing.
Imperial uncle?!
Murong Yanhui sneered at this title in his heart. He thought, Lili, I won't give you the chance to call me uncle.
Murong Yanhui brought Yu Qingli back to her courtyard. As soon as they landed, Murong Yanhui said, "Lili, go to bed early. Don't worry, I will definitely attend your wedding on time tomorrow."
Yu Qingli bowed slightly upon hearing this, "Thank you, uncle."
Murong Yan looked back at Yu Qingli's indifferent expression, and finally couldn't help but snort coldly. She turned around, jumped over the wall and flew away.
Yu Qingli stared at the wall in a daze for a few seconds. When she turned around and was about to go to sleep, she suddenly saw Chunhua lying on the ground, her eyes, which had already been distracted, staring at her blankly.
Yu Qingli's heart suddenly contracted for a second, and then a sharp scream that broke through the sky came out of Yu Qingli's mouth.
Murong Yan ran back a few steps and was about to turn back when she heard the shout. However, she had just taken a few steps when she suddenly remembered why Yu Qingli was shouting. She could not help but stop and smiled awkwardly, "Hehe," "Lili, I'm sorry, I will definitely repay you in the future.
After Murong Yan replied, he flew towards his own residence.
Yu Qingli let out an earth-shattering cry, and all the strength in her body seemed to disappear with the cry.
She covered her chest, her knees went weak, and she suddenly sat down at the gate of the yard.
In the dark night, a cloud gradually moved away, and the moonlight shone through. The moonlight was like water, pouring down on Chunhua's body. This maid who always dressed herself like a flower now looked so hideous.
Yu Qingli felt it was difficult to breathe, her heart was beating wildly in her chest, even though she had been reborn once, even though she thought she had a heart as hard as stone, but when she was really faced with the fact that someone was talking to her one second and turned into a corpse the next, she found that she still could not bear such fear. In fact, she was not as strong as she thought.
"What's going on? Go check it out!"
Suddenly, a majestic voice sounded behind her. Yu Qingli couldn't help but look back and saw Murong Cheng, who was wearing a bright yellow robe, walking towards her. Behind him were five or six guards and a young eunuch.
The young eunuch ran over first, slightly bent over, and ran very fast. But when he stepped into the yard, his steps paused obviously. Then, Yu Qingli clearly saw that the young eunuch's face turned pale in an instant, so pale that it seemed as if the blue blood vessels under his skin could be seen.
"Your Highness!" The young eunuch suddenly turned around and knelt on the ground, "You can't enter the yard!"
Murong Cheng frowned slightly, feeling puzzled. This young eunuch had followed him for many years and his loyalty was evident. There must be a reason for him to suddenly behave like this. However, the more he thought about this, the more curious Murong Cheng became.
