Villainess Wants To Turn Over A New Leaf

Chapter 440



Song Jinglan pulled Lin Feilu to the side and sat her down before he picked up the pen and continued to approve the unfinished memorials(2). He heard her ask, “How did you know I’m coming?”

(T/N: Here, memorials are official communication scripts written by government officials to the Emperor)

He was still writing, so without looking up, he merely smiled and said, “I just guessed.”

Seeing that he was still busy, Lin Feilu didn’t bother him any longer. Sitting on the soft couch, she looked left and right curiously, and when she turned her head, she saw a handsome little guard standing beside him. She froze for a moment before exclaiming in surprise, “Tiandong?!”

Tiandong’s face was flushed, unable to contain his excitement, “Fifth Princess!”

She was very happy to see an acquaintance again and walked over to look at him from a closer perspective, “Tiandong, you have grown taller, I almost didn’t recognise you.”

Tiandong was shy but happy, “I haven’t seen you for many years, but the Princess has grown a lot taller as well.”

The two chatted for a while before Lin Feilu suddenly thought of something. She glanced at him in horror, “Tiandong, did you perhaps…”

Seeing her eyes sweeping over a lower region, Tiandong’s face suddenly turned red as he shook his head repeatedly. He was then unable to speak smoothly, “This subordinate…No! This subordinate is His Majesty’s personal guard!”

(T/N: Lin Feilu teased that Tiandong became a eunuch, so that meant he would have to castrate himself in order to do so)

Next to him, Song Jinglan finished approving the memorials and placed down the pen. He smiled and stretched out his hand to pull her back, “Alright, don’t tease him too much.”

Lin Feilu glanced at the desk, “Are you done now?”

He pressed the space between his eyebrows, “I’ve piled up too many papers, so I’m afraid I’ll have to attend to the matters till night time. Are you hungry? I’ll ask someone to pass on your meal first.”

Lin Feilu shook her head, “I’m not hungry, I’ll just wait for you so we can eat together,” She raised her hand to touch her bun, asking with a smile, “Does it look good?”

He had already noticed her new hairstyle today and nodded with a smile, “It looks good.”

She pointed to Tingchun, who was waiting below, “It was Tingchun who combed it for me.”

Song Jinglan glanced down along her fingers and said with a gentle smile, “Grant her a reward.”

Tingchun shuddered and immediately knelt down to receive the reward, “Thank you, Your Majesty, for the reward.”

She and Shixia were greatly shocked and frightened today. In fact, they still haven’t recovered from the shock up until now. Hence, getting rewarded all of a sudden further complicated their emotions. Still kneeling, they heard Princess Yong An say, “It is so majestic and beautiful here.”

They heard His Majesty laugh softly, “Do you like this place? If so, let’s live here from now on.”

While the two were shocked, a tacit thought popped up in their hearts at the same time— from now on, life in the palace might change.

As the main palace where the Emperor lived and governed, the Lin An Palace was twice as large as the Yong An Palace, and it was also more magnificent. Lin Feilu took advantage of Song Jinglan’s review of the memorial and asked Tiandong to take her for a tour of it inside and out. She even jumped on the dragon bed(3) and rolled around on it, scaring her two maidservants’ out of their minds.
