Villainess Wants To Turn Over A New Leaf

Chapter 183

Lin Feilu sat on the threshold and looked at him, the corners of her lips unconsciously grinned. The daylight gradually dimmed, and the unconscious Xiao Lan finally woke up. Lin Feilu got up when she heard the voice of Yunyou resonating from inside and walked in.

Xiao Lan still looked very weak. She was frightened by this trip, and she would probably suffer a serious illness. Qingyan fed her the medicine and helped her to lie down. She looked at her daughter sitting next to the bed, her voice slightly muted, “I’ve made Lu’er worry again.”

Lin Feilu shook her head, “Just focus on recovering, mother concubine.”

Xiao Lan stretched out her hand to touch the irritating bump on her face, but Lin Feilu reached out and held it down, “Mother concubine, they just applied the medicine, don’t touch it.”

Xiao Lan asked in a light tone, “My face…”

She pursed her lips and smiled, “It’s not a big problem. Don’t worry, it will get better.”

Xiao Lan closed her eyes, only to feel that her heart was blocked by a raging sensation. It took a while before she calmed down, her voice trembling slightly, “Consort Mei is trying to disfigure me. If she realises that this plan turned out unsuccessful, she probably won’t let it go just like that.”

Lin Feilu held her hand with a calm voice, “Just wait for her next move, then.”

Xiao Lan tightened her fingers, fixedly looking at her daughter and mutedly warned her, “Be careful.”

Lin Feilu nodded with a smile.

After such an incident, it was impossible for her to leave Mingyue Palace again in a short time. The graces of the Emperor Lin were all granted to her. Which means, as long as Xiao Lan was not favored for a day, someone would always come to her door to insult her.

Lin Feilu felt that she was a bit like the guardian of the Mingyue Palace now. Only with her presence can the safety of the people in this palace be guaranteed.

When it was time to go to Jinyun Palace in the afternoon, Noble Consort Xi did not see the little bean after she woke up from a nap and asked the palace maid beside her in a cold tone, “Did that girl decide to be lazy today?”

The palace maid replied, “Noble Consort, this lowly slave heard that the Fifth Princess’s birth mother, Honourable Lady Lan, encountered a beehive in the Royal Flower Garden and was attacked by the bees this morning before she jumped into the lake. She was barely alive when she was rescued.”

Noble Consort Xi’s hand that held her teacup froze and her eyebrows furrowed, “With whom?”

The palace maid replied, “I heard that it was an invitation made by Consort Mei for all the palaces to enjoy flower viewing. A lot of people attended the outing.” She lowered her voice and said, “It is quite odd now that I speak of it. There were so many people there at the time, yet the bees did not pursue the other and only stung Honourable Lady Lan alone. I’m afraid there is something strange about this situation.”

When Xi Tan first entered the palace, she had never engaged in palace faction fighting. But whoever dared to engage in a palace faction fight with her, she would make them regret their actions.

However, she had seen her fair share of fights amongst the harem and she knew that only a handful of concubines in the palace were truly innocent. Little Fifth Princess has been in the limelight recently, so it is inevitable for jealousy to be directed towards them.
