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

Chapter 469: Change the Time with a Clever Hand

On a high mountain outside the Imperial City, Dong Tang Imperial Master handed a letter to one of his disciples and carefully instructed him, "This letter is extremely important. You must personally deliver it to the Imperial Palace and give it to His Majesty. Also, please tell me that I will be in seclusion for a while to cultivate. No one is allowed to disturb me. All matters in the palace will be fine as long as I follow the instructions in this letter."

"I will follow Master's instructions and go down the mountain now."

The Imperial Master then turned around with satisfaction and returned to his room, ready to go into seclusion. The young Taoist priest hurried down the mountain with the letter and headed straight for the imperial city.

This young Taoist was also going down the mountain for the first time, and was very curious about the scenery below the mountain. Fortunately, he still remembered his master's instructions. Although curious, he did not dare to stay for long. He just looked all the way, and the more he looked, the more delighted he felt.

When they arrived at the edge of the imperial city, the young Taoist was hungry and thirsty. Seeing that it was still early, he found a restaurant and sat down.

The restaurant was not big but it was clean and tidy. The young Taoist ordered some food and planned to set off again after filling his stomach.

At this moment, a beautiful woman suddenly rushed in from outside. She was panicked and grabbed the Taoist priest, begging desperately, "Master, please save me. There are bad guys chasing me."

The Taoist priest had lived in the mountains for many years and had never seen such things before. When he saw the woman tugging at his sleeve tightly, his face suddenly turned red and he stammered, "Miss... Miss, please let me go first and I will save you!"

Before the woman could say anything, a burly man rushed up from behind and ripped her clothes off. "You bitch, why don't you come back with me? I was wondering why you were running around all the time. It turns out you have a stray man out there."

"I didn't. I didn't even know him."

The big man obviously did not believe what the woman said, and everyone present finally understood that the woman and the big man were actually husband and wife, and the reason why the big man chased after the woman was because he suspected that she had other men outside.

The big man used more force on his hands, causing the woman to scream. The young Taoist couldn't stand it anymore and stopped her, saying, "Stop it!"

As the young Taoist priest spoke, he knocked the big man's hand away and pulled the woman behind him.

The big man became even more angry. "I teach my wife a lesson, what does it have to do with you?"

"A good man doesn't fight with a woman. Besides, since she is your own wife, you should naturally respect her. How can you beat and scold her so casually?"

The young Taoist priest was clearly also provoked, and his rhetoric became more fluent. The large man grew even angrier upon hearing this. He turned to the woman and said, "Didn't you say this man wasn't your mistress? If that's the case, why is he so protective of you?"

The beautiful woman hid behind the Taoist priest and said, "That was just someone who saw injustice. Do you think everyone is like you, ready to hit others at the slightest provocation?"

As the beautiful woman spoke, she leaned over to the Taoist's ear and said, "Sir, you are such a good person."

The young Taoist's ears were reddened by the praise, and he waved his hands repeatedly, saying, "Miss, you are too kind."

"I knew you weren't a good person. You look like a Taoist priest, but you openly flirted with my wife. It's really infuriating."

The big man stepped forward angrily and attacked the young Taoist priest. The young Taoist priest was not to be outdone and started fighting with the big man. More and more people gathered around him, but the young Taoist priest didn't notice that the moment the woman was pulled behind him, she swiftly searched through his bag and quickly pulled out an envelope. While the two were fighting, another man walked behind the woman and quietly took the letter away.

On the second floor of the restaurant, Murong Yanhui and Ye Lixue sat opposite each other. The man who had taken the letter earlier handed it to Murong Yanhui. Murong Yanhui opened the letter, took a look at it, and threw it to Ye Lixue who was sitting opposite him.

"Help me change the time above."

"I'm afraid this is a bit difficult for me."

"If it were easy, I wouldn't bother you. I know you have a potion that can make writing disappear. As for your forging skills, I believe I don't need to praise you anymore, right?"

Ye Lixue smiled and said, "How dare a commoner like me disobey the order given by the prince?"

As he spoke, he took out a blue porcelain bottle from his side and asked, "How do you want to change it, Your Highness?"

"Just change the time here to three days later."

"That's easy."

Ye Lixue opened the porcelain bottle, poured out the liquid inside, smeared some with her finger, and smeared it on the letter paper. Soon, the handwriting on it slowly disappeared. Murong Yanhui saw it and was very magical. She couldn't help but smile and said, "This is really a good thing. I wonder what it is?"

"It's actually quite simple. This water is actually filled with tiny insects called inkworms. They feed on ink, but they can't see the light of day, so they can only live in the dark."

"There are such magical things in the world. Can you give me some of these ink-eating insects? I'm afraid they will be useful to me in the future."

"If you want it, wait until you get back to Cang and I'll give you two bottles. But this thing also has its drawbacks. If you use it at night, the words on the entire paper will probably be eaten up. You have to remember this."

Murong Yanhui nodded, and Ye Lixue did not delay and wrote a few words on the letter again with the pen, ink, paper and inkstone that had been prepared long ago. Murong Yanhui took it and looked at it. The handwriting was exactly the same as the original one.

Ye Lixue said proudly: "I'm afraid that apart from me, no one else in this world can imitate it so realistically."

"That's not necessarily true. My Lili is also good at this. It's a pity that she is not here now, otherwise you two could learn from each other."

Ye Lixue snorted coldly, "Who wants to compete with a woman? Wouldn't that be embarrassing?"

As Ye Lixue stood up and prepared to leave, Murong Yan tried to persuade her to stay, saying, "Why don't you stay a few more days? Maybe you can see me snatching the bride away with me?"

"I'm not interested in this. After you return to Beijing, remember to send the reward to my house. Five thousand taels of gold, not a penny less."

"Hey, hey, hey, are we still brothers?"

"Brother, let's settle accounts clearly. If it weren't for the sake of brotherhood, I would definitely ask you for a million taels of gold!"

Ye Lixue left in a cold and arrogant manner. Murong Yan smiled back, feeling deeply moved. He handed the letter back to the man. After a moment, the letter was back in the Taoist's bag.

The young Taoist priest was completely unaware of this series of events and was only concerned with struggling with the big man. The beautiful woman winked at the big man, and the big man pretended that he could not beat the young Taoist priest and was pinned to the ground by him.

Just as the young Taoist was about to strike the big man again, a beautiful woman suddenly rushed over and said with great emotion, "Sir, please have mercy. Although my husband is a bit rough, he is the pillar of the family. If he is beaten to death or injured by you, how will a weak woman like me live?"

The woman was crying as she spoke, and the Taoist priest said angrily, "You man, look at how much your wife loves you, how could you have the heart to hit her? Will you do such a wicked thing again in the future?"

"I don't dare anymore! Please spare my life, young man!"

The sturdy man begged for mercy repeatedly, and the little Taoist's vanity was greatly satisfied. The onlookers also helped to persuade him, "Little brother, we see that this man is also a straightforward person. He made a mistake in a moment of anger. Now even his wife has forgiven him, so don't worry about it."

"Yes, young man, don't worry about it, okay?"

The strong man begged for mercy repeatedly, "I will never dare to do that again. If I dare to touch my wife, I will cut off my own hands!"

The Taoist priest let go of the strong man after hearing his oath. The beautiful woman thanked him again and then helped the strong man walk out the door.

The people around all praised the young Taoist priest, and his face flushed but he felt very proud. When he came to his senses, he remembered his master's instructions to him. He hurriedly checked his bag and found that the letter was still inside. He felt a little relieved, put the bag on his back again, and walked towards the palace.

In the private room on the second floor, the sturdy man and the beautiful woman were sitting at the table, drinking and eating meat. Murong Yanhui sat opposite them, took out a small bottle and tossed it to the sturdy man, saying, "Brother Fang, Sister Fang, thank you very much for what you did today. You have suffered a lot. This is excellent medicine for your injuries. I hope you don't mind it."

The sturdy man said generously, "Brother Murong, you're joking. That little Taoist priest is as strong as a chicken. This wound is probably caused by me. It just looks scary, but it doesn't hurt much. He thinks he's so powerful!"

The beautiful woman twisted the burly man's ear and said, "Brother, just take it when I tell you to. Why are you talking so much nonsense? You'll die if you don't brag!"

The sturdy man then chuckled, put away the medicine, and glared at the woman, "Brother Murong is still here, please give me some face."

Murong Yan smiled and said, "Big brother and sister-in-law live a carefree and carefree life. I am so envious. If Lili can treat me the same way one day, I will be very satisfied."

The woman asked curiously, "I wonder what this Yu Qingli looks like that could make a prodigal son turn back. I really want to meet her if I have the chance. Brother Murong, on the day of your wedding, don't forget to invite me to drink a bowl of wedding wine!"

"That's natural!"

"In that case, my wife and I should leave. If that young Taoist gets suspicious, it will be troublesome. The mountains remain unchanged, and the rivers flow forever. Brother, we will meet again."

The burly man and the beautiful woman soon disappeared from Murong Yanhui's sight. Murong Yanhui sighed and said that after not seeing them for so many days, their kung fu had improved a lot.

"Master, this time it is thanks to your friends in the martial arts world, otherwise it would not have been so smooth."

"That's right. I, Murong Yanhui, will remember this favor. Changkong, contact the people in Prince Kang's mansion immediately and find a way to sneak into the mansion to investigate."

"Master, do you not believe in Prince Kang?"

"I just don't trust Princess Xingluo. Please be careful in everything you do!"

"My subordinate understands!"
