Villainess Wants To Turn Over A New Leaf

Lin Ting walked out with her, and when they reached the intersection, they saw someone walking towards them.

Lin Feilu raised her eyes and ran over excitedly, “Brother Crown Prince!”

Lin Qing was just thinking about something when he heard her voice and looked up. A smile spread on his usually solemn face, “Little Fifth Princess is back.”

He turned his eyes and saw Lin Ting also standing across from him. His smile faded a little, but he still greeted him warmly, “Eldest Brother, are you feeling better?”

Lin Ting nodded and smiled, “My health has improved a lot, thank you for your concern, Third Brother.”

The two of them were polite to each other, no longer confronting nor being involved in conflicts, but the way they treated each other also lacked the warmth that was present in their childhood.

Lin Feilu said, “Brother Crown Prince, I will go to the Eastern Palace later to visit you and sister-in-law— I brought you gifts!”

Lin Qing retracted his gaze, and when he looked at her, his eyes were much softer, “Okay, I’ll go and meet Father Emperor first.”

The three said goodbye, and it was not until Lin Qing walked away that Lin Feilu glanced at Lin Ting a little worriedly. Upon seeing his drooping eyebrows and gentle expression, she felt a little uncomfortable as she said in a low voice, “Eldest Imperial Brother, Brother Crown Prince still respects you a lot.”

Lin Ting did not answer her, but changed the line of conversation to another topic, “In the Palace just now, I asked Father Emperor about the situation between the Great Lin Empire and the Song Empire. He said that the two countries have their own dependencies— our Empire needed to train our troops whereas the Song Empire had to strengthen their country. Hence, the agreement placed between our countries would temporarily be unbroken, and there won’t be any wars or conflicts occuring anytime soon.”

He looked at the swaying flower in the pot not far away from him and smiled, “Third Brother is calm, Second Brother is steadily thriving in the army, and Fourth Brother also began learning how to handle political matters. There is no place for me to help in this court, so now, I can leave in peace.”

Lin Feilu was startled, “Leave? Where are you going?”

Lin Ting laughed, “Someone is still waiting for me.”

Lin Feilu knew who he was talking about, so she questioned, “Then, what about Noble Consort Ruan..?”

Lin Ting said warmly, “I will say my goodbyes to them one by one before finally bidding farewell to the Father Emperor. I will return if the peace is broken and the Palace needs me.”

Lin Feilu had a thought. To him, perhaps this Palace would be the best final destination.

Even if the Ruan’s family faction had fallen, he would still be regarded as a thorn in the Crown Prince’s faction as long as he was present in the Imperial Court. It would definitely be better for him to be free and safe.

Lin Feilu solemnly patted his shoulder and said firmly, “No matter what the Eldest Imperial Brother does, I will always support you!”

Lin Ting smiled and shook his head, “You shouldn’t say these kinds of words so carelessly. Come on, you can go and find Fourth Brother; I should also go to visit my Mother Consort.”

Lin Feilu nodded obediently, and after parting with him, she subconsciously headed towards Consort Xian’s Changming Palace. It wasn’t until she was halfway there that she realized Lin Jingyuan had already left the palace and had moved to his own. Hence, she changed her route and headed towards his residence.

Lin Jingyuan’s King Jing’s Residence was selected by himself through layers of research and investigation. Not only was the location excellent, but all the buildings in the mansion were built according to his preferences. Lin Feilu came to the mansion’s door, and at a glance, she saw two mighty and majestic stones standing at the door…

Stone books???

Lin Jingyuan, are you insane?

People would usually have stone sculptures of lions outside their doors, so why were there two humongous books outside his?!

When did he love studying so much???
