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

Chapter 232 Harming others without benefiting oneself

Yu Qingli's accommodation was quickly arranged. She lived in Jiying Palace, not far from Chaofeng Palace. The environment in Jiying Palace was quiet and peaceful, which was exactly what Yu Qingli wanted.

Under the arrangement of Queen Li, Yu Qingli was soon taken to Jiying Palace by Nanny Li and settled down. The two maids originally in the palace were also left behind to take care of Yu Qingli's daily life, and the Queen would send someone to teach Yu Qingli some palace etiquette to prepare for her future life in the palace.

In fact, in her previous life, for Murong Feng, Yu Qingli had seriously studied the rules and etiquette of the palace. Unexpectedly, after another life, she had to start learning it all over again.

"Miss, my name is Chunhua and Qiuyue. From today on, we will be responsible for your daily life."

The two maids were about the same age as Mei Hong and the others. They looked more like teachers and must have been specially trained in the palace.

Yu Qingli nodded slightly. From today on, she would live here. It really didn't feel real.

After Yu Qingli had rested for a day, the teaching nanny came, and also came with her was Murong Yuan, who was supposed to be locked up and facing the wall to reflect on her mistakes.

The Queen was Murong Yuan's biological mother after all, so she took this opportunity to release her. "Qingli, from today on, you and Yuan'er will learn the palace etiquette together. If there is anything you don't understand, just ask. Nanny will be happy to teach you."

Yu Qingli nodded slightly, "Got it!"

Murong Yuan, standing by, said unhappily, "Why would this princess want to learn etiquette with someone like this? Besides, this princess's etiquette is already perfect."

"Okay, Yuan'er, it's time for you to learn some proper manners. Only then will your mother be relieved when you get married."

Murong Yuan snorted coldly, "Who said I want to get married? I will tell my father that I want to find a prince consort. I will not leave the palace!"

"Even so, you still have to behave yourself. Otherwise, no man would be interested in someone like you."

Queen Li was probably really anxious, and even said such words.

Although Murong Yuan was not convinced when she heard this, she did not dare to be too presumptuous when she saw the angry face of Queen Li. Forget it, just learn the rules. It is better than being locked up in a small dark room.

What's more, Murong Yuan was thinking in her heart that maybe she would take this opportunity to give Yu Qingli a good beating.

Finally, they officially started learning the rules. Early in the morning, the teaching nanny came to Jiying Palace. In order to facilitate training, the queen arranged for Murong Yuan to live in Jiying Palace as well.

On the first day, perhaps because the Queen was keeping a close eye on her, Murong Yuan was relatively honest and did not do anything out of the ordinary. What they learned was also very simple, nothing more than getting up, washing, dressing, and so on.

In fact, there is knowledge hidden in the small and ordinary daily trivialities. If Yu Qingli had not known all these things in her previous life, it would be difficult for her to accept them all at once.

On the second day, training on eating and walking began.

Yu Qingli passed the teaching nanny's test in one go and could go to the side to rest, but Murong Yuan had to do it again over and over again.

The teaching nanny was fair and strict. As long as you did well, she would never make things difficult for you. On the contrary, if you did not do well, no matter what your status was, you would be severely scolded.

Just like now, Yu Qingli completed the test and started to eat, while Murong Yuan, who was sitting across the table, faced the table full of delicious food and could only practice non-stop.

"Your Highness, you're holding the chopsticks incorrectly. Try again..."

"Your Highness, you shouldn't smack your lips when drinking soup. Try again..."

"Your Highness, you can't stand up when picking up food. Try again..."

"your Highness……"

Looking at Murong Yuan like this, Yu Qingli felt in a good mood, and even the food seemed to taste much better.

"Yu Qingli, don't be so complacent... Ouch!"

As soon as Murong Yuan opened her mouth, she was hit with a cane. The teaching nanny said expressionlessly, "Your Highness, don't talk while eating or sleeping. Do it again!"

Murong Yuan felt like she was being driven crazy. This was not a study rule at all; it was hell on earth. And most importantly, why was she forced to study along with them?

On the fourth day, Yu Qingli had a vague feeling that something was going to happen. She was afraid that the princess, who always liked to be clever, would start playing tricks.

When you live under someone's roof, you can only be vigilant and careful not to let her succeed.

Sure enough, after that, Yu Qingli found things like nails in the shoes she used to practice walking, and saw centipedes, scorpions and the like on her bed.

Yu Qingli did not say anything, but just told Xiluo to pack up all these things and throw them back into Murong Yuan's boudoir.

"Ah! Help!"

A scream resounded through the sky, drawing everyone in Jiying Hall out to watch the excitement. What had happened to Her Royal Highness? There had been no peace and quiet for days. People really needed to be compared. By comparison, this young lady from the Yu Mansion was truly dignified, graceful, and virtuous.

Queen Li happened to come to Jiying Palace. After hearing the scream, she quickly sent someone to inquire. What she saw was a bunch of scorpions and centipedes coiled in the princess's room. Murong Yuan huddled on the bed, not daring to move, for fear of being stung.

"Where did these things come from?! Someone, get them out!"

Queen Li was furious. It was unbelievable that such a thing appeared in the palace.

Murong Yuan was so upset that she wanted to cry. She clearly remembered that she had put these things in Yu Qingli's room, so how could they crawl back again? Could it be that they still remembered that she had caught them?

The palace maids and eunuchs were busy catching centipedes and the like, but those things were living creatures and there were so many of them, how could they catch them all in a short time?

Everyone was in great distress. Murong Yuan's face was covered with tears. "Mother, save me!"

Empress Li was also extremely anxious. She turned to Yu Qingli for help in a panic, "Qingli, I've heard that you're the smartest person. How about you come up with a plan?"

Seeing the pleading look in Queen Li's eyes, Yu Qingli thought to herself that she might as well do her a favor. After all, she didn't want to kill Murong Yuan, she just wanted to teach her a lesson.

After a brief thought, Yu Qingli ordered, "Send someone to get some sulfur right away, and catch a few chickens!"

The palace maids were puzzled and stood there in a daze. Empress Li angrily said, "What are you all standing there for? Hurry up and go!"

The palace maids and eunuchs then hurried to look for these two things.

Murong Yuan cried and shouted, "Mother, you must find the murderer behind this for me. No, this must have been done by Yu Qingli. Mother, she wants to harm me!"

Empress Li frowned, "Murong Yuan, stop it now! Do you really think I don't know what you've done? Shut up! Qingli did you the right thing by not exposing you. This time, I'm afraid you caused this too! This is what you call reaping what you sow!"

Murong Yuan shut up obediently after hearing this. It turned out that her mother already knew about it!

Not long after, a palace maid came with sulfur and sprinkled it around the room as Yu Qingli had instructed. The poisonous insects that had been running around now gathered together obediently.

The more sulfur was spread, the smaller the range of the poisonous insects' activities became.

Not long after, a chicken was caught from the imperial kitchen and brought into the house. When the roosters saw the insects, they rushed forward to peck at them. Even the insects hiding in the corners and not being discovered were pecked by the roosters.

However, for a moment, Murong Yuan's room was filled with the smell of sulfur and chicken shit, which was very unpleasant.

Seeing the last poisonous insect swallowed by the chicken, the queen finally breathed a sigh of relief. No matter what, it was really scary to see so many poisonous creatures running around in the room.

"Qingli, thank you so much today."

Queen Li rarely spoke sincerely. In fact, she knew that Murong Yuan had framed Yu Qingli all these days, but she had never cared about it because she also wanted to see how Yu Qingli would resolve the crisis.

Unexpectedly, it was just as she thought. Yu Qingli was not as weak and incompetent as she imagined, nor as rigid as Murong Feng said. She was calm and collected when encountering things, and could think of a solution quickly. Such a woman is very suitable to be a good wife.

Yu Qingli lowered her head slightly and said, "Your Majesty, you are too kind. It's just a small favor."

"I'm a little confused. How did you know these things?"

Yu Qingli smiled and said, "Your Majesty, you haven't been back for many years, so you might have forgotten. The weather in Jiangnan is humid, and it's very easy for these poisonous insects to appear. Ordinary people will use sulfur to fumigate, while those ordinary people will directly raise some roosters to peck at these poisonous insects. In fact, using roosters is the most thorough method. If some insects escape, these roosters will not let them go easily. This is probably the so-called one thing conquers another!"

Listening to Yu Qingli's story, Queen Li became more and more satisfied with her. She was never wrong in judging people. If Murong Feng wanted to sit on the throne in the future, he would have to rely on this woman for advice!

Murong Yuan, who had resolved the crisis, had her hair loose and looked very embarrassed. Just now, a rooster even jumped on her, ate the insects crawling on her skirt, and also pooped on her dress.

Murong Yuan got off the bed with an angry look on her face. This Yu Qingli must have done it on purpose. She clearly had a better way, but she deliberately made herself so embarrassed! How abominable!

Murong Yuan was furious, and the look she gave Yu Qingli was filled with murderous intent. This Yu Qingli was indeed a troublemaker, and she couldn't be allowed to stay! I really didn't know why her mother would defend her so much.

"What's going on? I heard a lot of commotion early in the morning."

A lazy and evil voice with a little hoarseness and sexiness in the morning, coupled with that captivating gaze, Murong Yuan's mood suddenly improved.

"Little Emperor Uncle!"

Murong Yanhui was half leaning against the door, his expression cold and charming, like a fairy who had practiced for thousands of years. Since Yu Qingli moved into the palace, he came here almost every day. Everyone knew that he came for Yu Qingli.
