Villainess Wants To Turn Over A New Leaf

Chapter 239

Lin Feilu’s flower field was only established and now that the flower farming business was in full swing, Emperor Lin didn’t force the matter any longer.

Xiao Lan’s position soared four steps higher in one go. Although everything that happened back then was now revealed, everyone knew that this was Emperor Lin’s compensation to her. However, everyone was surprised by the sudden jump in rank.

Now that there are only two Consorts left among the four, the minds of the beauties in the harem have begun to liven up again. In the past, the position of the four Consorts were occupied, leaving no room for any other to attempt to climb the ranks. No matter how hard they fought, they would only be able to obtain the rank of an Imperial Concubine at most. Now that they had the opportunity to rise, everyone was eager to try their luck.

The harem was suddenly surging with desperation.

Honourable Lady Xiao Lan, who had become the Brilliant Lady Xiao Lan, was still as calm as before.

Compared with how she was before, she was indeed much smarter now— knowing how to be liked by Emperor Lin and knowing how to utilize her own advantages.

But she didn’t want to fight for the Emperor’s Imperial favour; she just hoped that she would enable her two children to grow up safely.

Lin Feilu had a different point of view, however.

Now that they have come to this point, it would be best to fight even if she had never intended to.

We’ll have to fight anyway, so why not shoot for the moon while we’re at it?

She thought that the position of an Imperial Consort sounded quite good in name.

Although Emperor Lin made an order to evict Imperial Concubine Hui to the Huisheng Hall, Lin Nianzhi still remained in Yaohua Palace.

The Great Lin’s tradition was that the princes and princesses would move out of their palaces to build a mansion or a palace for themselves when they reached adulthood. Before that happened, they all lived with their biological mothers.

In the end, Emperor Lin still loved her as the eldest princess. Although he hated Imperial Concubine Hui, he didn’t direct his irritation towards her as he didn’t want her to suffer with her mother.

The Yaohua Palace was temporarily vacant and Emperor Lin asked the Imperial Household Department to rearrange a group of palace staff to serve the princess. Thus Lin Nianzhi was able to enjoy the life of living alone as an adult way ahead in time.

She stayed in bed ever since she fainted from the violent heart attack. The illness came and went like no other, but when she learned that her mother’s position had been demoted, her entire being became a lot sluggish and she was no longer as lively as she was before.

After recovering from her illness, Lin Nianzhi went to the Huisheng Hall with the company of Baoyou.

Imperial Concubine Hui was confined for half a year. She was not allowed to exit her confinement space and outsiders were not allowed to visit either.

Lin Nianzhi stood at the gate of the Hall for a long time before Imperial Concubine Hui’s maidservant came out and whispered, “Princess, Imperial Concubine wants you to go back and to not come back again.”

Lin Nianzhi asked with red eyes, “I just want to see my Mother Concubine, how is she?”

The maid replied,”Imperial Concubine Hui is in good hands. Eldest Princess does not have to worry about her, but do take care of yourself in the future.”

Lin Nianzhi glanced inward through the half-opened door of the palace. Knowing that her Mother Concubine was trying to protect her from being involved in her mess, she raised her hand to wipe her tears, gave a bow towards the door before turning back to return.
