Villainess Wants To Turn Over A New Leaf

Lin Feilu couldn’t tell what jumbled emotions she felt in her heart, but they were both sour and sweet. Initially, she bore no sort of nostalgia nor homesickness even though she was marrying into a faraway empire. Now that he had gone through all the trouble to remind her of it, she felt a bit homesick.

She asked in a low voice, “When was this remodelled?”

Song Jinglan answered, “The year I ascended the throne.”

Lin Feilu was surprised, “Did you know that you would marry me at that time?”

He smiled and led her in, “I’ve wanted to marry you since then.”

Even though they were already very close, Lin Feilu couldn’t help but blush every time he said such words.

But after entering the main hall, the interior decor differed from the Mingyue Palace. All the specifications were arranged according to the Empress’s position and were designed in an extremely gorgeous manner. Passing through the main hall and the apse, the back of it was completely made in the architectural style of the Song Empire. As a whole, it was much larger than that of the original Mingyue Palace.

Songyu’s exclamation came from outside the gates.

Lin Feilu had already calmed down as she pushed him away, “It’s been so long since you’ve left the palace, you should go back and deal with your political affairs first. I’ll just get to know my surroundings a little bit better.”

Song Jinglan raised his hand and patted her head, “Okay, rest up for a bit and wait for me to come over for dinner tonight.”

She nodded repeatedly.

As soon as Song Jinglan left, the atmosphere in the Yong An Palace finally became less tense.

These palace servants who were assigned to serve the Princess in the Yong An Palace were all selected by His Majesty himself. They were diligent, and clever and had no intention of pulling tricks or schemes. All of them were people who had served their purposes in the palace for a long time but never had they seen their Emperor this gentle and this expressive. The amount of fear and shock they felt at that moment was comparable to the convoy’s first discovery as well.

Even so, no one dared to question it. They had already developed the habit of talking less, seeing less and asking less in this strict palace. Lin Feilu walked around and looked at these servants who had lowered brows and pleasing eyes, thinking they were oddly passive. 

She brought a lot of things from the Great Lin Empire this time, including the small animals she had raised for a long time. After Songyu got over her initial shock, she led the servants to put things away happily.

Lin Feilu took a hot bath under the service of the palace servants before she climbed into the large, soft bed. It wasn’t until she slept like a log for 2 whole hours that she regained her energy.

The two maids who washed and dressed her were older than her, both having very calm personalities. One was named Tingchun, and the other was called Shixia. Although she was closer to Songyu, this was still the Song Empire. As the saying goes, ‘when in Rome, do as Romans do’. Hence, they needed the two locals to help them get used to the varying customs.

Lin Feilu casually asked a few questions about the customs they needed to take note of, only to find out that she didn’t have to worry about it. Song Jinglan had even prepared a private kitchen for her.

Tingchun skillfully combed Lin Feilu’s hair into the style of a bun that she had never seen before. The maidservant complimented with a smile, “The Princess is the most beautiful woman I have ever seen.”
