EBE Chapter 412 Mei Hong's Death
Chapter 412 Mei Hong's Death
Mei Hong opened her eyes wide in surprise, "Ah..."
"Don't be nervous, it's just a little antidote. I have something to ask you!"
Mei Hong finally calmed down. After an incense stick of time, she spoke hoarsely, "What... do you want to ask? Are you trying to make fun of me? Get out! Get out! It was you who drugged me. How could it be His Highness? It must be you, you evil woman, you're just dying to break us up..."
"Meihong, are you so confident that Murong Feng cares about you?" Yu Qingli said lightly, "No! You're wrong! You don't understand him at all. In Murong Feng's heart, he only cares about himself the most. Anyone who gets in his way must die."
Yu Qingli didn't know why she found the mute medicine in the tea to prepare the antidote, and why she came here on such a cold winter night to see this woman who would leave this world tomorrow. Perhaps, she just wanted to say goodbye to her past self.
"You're talking nonsense. His Highness loves me, and only me!" Mei Hong became a little excited, and seemed eager to state this fact to Yu Qingli.
"So what? He still gave you up for the rights he was pursuing!"
Mei Hong collapsed to the ground all of a sudden. Yu Qingli was right. After all, she still couldn't leave any place in Murong Feng's heart. Oh, no, it should be said that the man had no heart at all.
"I came here today just to ask you one question. Do you regret betraying me?"
Mei Hong stared at Yu Qingli strangely, then burst into laughter, as if she had heard a very funny joke. "Betrayal? What did you say? Betrayal? Yu Qingli, I have never been loyal to you, so how can I say betrayal? Besides, how are you any better than me? You are the prince's consort, but you have an affair with the Prince of Yan. Do you think no one knows about your little affair with the Prince of Yan? Strictly speaking, that was incest, right? Yu Qingli, who is more shameless? You slut!"
Yu Qingli chuckled. It is said that when a dying man is about to speak good words, but it seems that this may not be the case.
"Shut up!"
Xi Shi, who was standing by, couldn't stand it any longer and almost wanted to twist Mei Hong's neck, but Yu Qingli stopped him, "She's not wrong."
Yu Qingli paused, then sneered at Mei Hong, "Mei Hong, if you had told me directly at the beginning, I might have directly agreed to your marriage with Murong Feng. Unfortunately, you insisted on fighting for it in your own way, and which of those ways of yours didn't kill me?"
Mei Hong was exposed and was speechless for a moment.
Yu Qingli didn't want to waste time talking to her. She was about to die anyway. Why should she bother with a dead person?
"Meihong, take care of yourself!"
Yu Qingli stood up and left. Since she already knew that Mei Hong had no regrets from the beginning to the end, why should she feel guilty? She had already sworn that she would not be soft-hearted towards these people!
Xiluo considerately helped Yu Qingli put on the cloak, and then followed Yu Qingli out of the cell.
The moon had gradually set, and the sky had become extremely dark. The darkness before dawn was always so charming. Yu Qingli gathered the cloak around her shoulders and whispered to Chao Xiluo, "Let's go."
Xiluo looked up. Yu Qingli's figure was like a jade branch in the night, so graceful and unparalleled in the world. In the carriage not far away, a familiar figure replaced Xiaoliu's original position and was looking at Yu Qingli with a smile.
Yu Qingli walked to the side of the car and was stunned, "Why are you here?"
"You are allowed to visit me in prison in the early morning, but I am not allowed to date the beautiful lady?" Murong Yan replied with a rogue look on his face.
Yu Qingli's face suddenly turned cold, and she slapped away Murong Yan's hand. "Go find your beauty, I'm going back to the palace."
Murong Yanhui smiled and put her head on Yu Qingli's shoulder, looking aggrieved and said, "Lili, if you go back to the palace, who should I go out with?"
Yu Qingli blushed, knowing she was being teased by this guy again, and her expression became even colder. Murong Yanhui saw that she was in a bad mood today, so she didn't tease her any further. She just said to Xiluo, "You go back first. I'll take Lili out for a walk."
Xiluo pursed her lips and smiled, her gaze lingering for a second between Yu Qingli and Murong Yanhui, then she bowed respectfully and left. Yu Qingli got on the carriage, but she didn't know where Murong Yanhui was going to take her.
Just as I was thinking about it, Murong Yanhui's voice came from outside the carriage, "Lili, take a nap for a while. I'll call you when we get there."
Yu Qingli nodded slightly. It was not known whether it was because she had let go of her worries or because she was really tired. As the carriage rocked, she slowly closed her eyes and fell into a deep sleep.
When Yu Qingli woke up again, she only heard the whistling of wind in her ears, but her body did not feel cold at all. A pair of big hands clasped her waist tightly, holding her whole body in his arms, like a newborn bird being protected in the feathers of its mother.
When I raised my eyes, I met a pair of beautiful and bright eyes. There was a hint of smile in them, shining brightly, making it impossible to look away for a moment.
"Are you stunned, Lili? Do you think this king is very handsome?"
Yu Qingli's ears flushed and she coughed. She sat up straight, looked around, and changed the subject: "Where is this?"
Murong Yanhui touched his nose, not getting angry, and looked towards the eastern sky. "Lili, I want to give you the most beautiful scenery. I hope you can be happy soon."
Yu Qingli's heart moved. This person noticed her emotions. She looked in the direction Murong Yanhui was looking. There was already some glow in the eastern sky. The bright red light seemed to tear apart the dark curtain of the sky.
Yu Qingli held her breath and let Murong Yanhui hold her in his warm arms. A red sun rose slowly, and the brilliant golden light dyed the entire sky like the most beautiful brocade, so beautiful that it made people's hearts tremble.
Yu Qingli was shocked. She had never seen such a beautiful scenery before, and she didn't even know that the sunrise could be so beautiful that it made people want to cry.
Murong Yanhui turned her head and met Yu Qingli's eyes. In her slightly surprised look, Murong Yanhui's lips gently covered her eyes, warm and soft, with infinite tenderness, which made Yu Qingli's heart soften as well. At this moment, she even thought that maybe it would be a good idea to give up revenge and go far away with this man.
Murong Yanhui reached out and held Yu Qingli's hand, interlocking their fingers, which warmed Yu Qingli's heart.
"Yu Qingli, I, Murong Yanhui, will only love you in this life. From birth to death, I will never leave you!"
Yu Qingli turned her head suddenly, trying to hide her inner panic and joy as well as the tears that welled up in her eyes because of being moved. However, she soon calmed down and gently said to Murong Yan, "Let's go together."
"Ok!"
Murong Yanhui nodded with satisfaction. Although Yu Qingli had not yet completely opened her heart to him, judging from the current situation, Lili had begun to accept him.
They were silent all the way, but both of them felt very warm in their hearts. At this moment, they found the most important support in each other's lives.
At this time, there was also a person in the palace who had not slept all night!
The room was littered with broken porcelain pieces, leaving no place for anyone to step. Murong Feng sat among the fragments with red eyes, like a devil from hell. The gentleness on his face was gone, replaced by gloom and cruelty.
"Murong Yanhui, you are colluding with Murong Cheng. If that's the case, don't blame me for being ruthless!"
Murong Yanhui, who was driving the car, felt a chill coming from all around. It was indeed too cold in the early morning of winter.
After returning to the palace, Yu Qingli received the news that Mei Hong was dead. A white silk silk took her life. It was said that she died very peacefully, as if she had accepted her fate.
Yu Qingli looked at the sunny weather outside, feeling neither sad nor happy. Mei Hong was just a little abandoned pawn, and her death was really not a pity. Moreover, she still had a tough battle to fight next, because soon, it seemed that the court would begin to fall into chaos!
"Miss, it's not good!"
Xiluo came hurriedly from outside the hall with a rare grim look on her face. Seeing her anxious look, Yu Qingli felt vaguely uneasy in her heart. What could make Xiluo so panicked?
"Miss, I just heard that Prime Minister Yu brought Yu Zhenzhen into the palace."
"It's just that they entered the palace. What's there to be alarmed about?"
Xiluo looked up at Yu Qingli, then, as if mustering up the courage, said, "Miss, they are here for Yu Zhenzhen's marriage!"
Yu Qingli found this amusing. She'd heard Yu Zhengsha had previously rejected Murong Feng's proposal, so why was he now taking the initiative? It was true, though. Murong Feng had just dealt with Mei Hong, and his struggle with the Crown Prince was at its lowest point. If Yu Zhengsha collaborated with him now, he'd likely remember him. This old fox had a good idea.
"Xiluo, why are you so anxious about Yu Zhenzhen's marriage? Besides, don't you know what I'm thinking? Even if Yu Zhenzhen marries Murong Feng today, I won't care too much."
"Miss, it would be great if Yu Zhenzhen really married the eldest prince, but Yu Zhenzhen told the emperor that the man she loves is His Royal Highness the Prince of Yan!"
Yu Qingli's heart skipped a beat, she felt a little sad and a little angry. This Murong Yanhui really loved to attract romantic interests, and he only attracted bad ones.
Thinking of this, Yu Qingli's face turned cold, and even her tone became a little stiff. "Even if that's the case, it's the King of Yan's business. What does it have to do with me?"
Xiluo felt somewhat disappointed when she heard this. She thought the young lady would at least care. Now it seems that the master's love journey is really difficult and long.
Seeing Xiluo stopped talking, Yu Qingli couldn't help but coughed to hide her inner emotions, and asked in a flat voice: "What did your majesty say?"
Xiluo's face lit up with joy. It seemed that the young lady was not completely heartless. She was probably just too embarrassed to show it because of her pride. So, Xiluo reported everything she knew to Yu Qingli.
