BXBX NOVEL Chapter 322
She hanged herself from the cantilever.
No, that’s not it… she was strangled, but made to look as if she committed suicide.
It was quite evident to know who the murderer was.
Lin Feilu held back her trembling hands as she picked two Irises and hurriedly jumped out of the Cold Palace.
Si Miaoran was talking to Songyu. When she saw her coming back, Si Miaoran looked at the purple flowers in her hand and smiled, “They are beautiful, but it’s a pity that it’s been planted in a place like that.”
Lin Feilu exerted her Oscar-winning acting skills to the extreme, hiding her shock and surprise before they could even catch on, “Sister-in-law, let me take you to see the other flowers.”
The two strolled around for half an hour before Lin Feilu excused herself under the excuse that she had to go to the Empress Dowager’s Palace.
She hurried back to the Mingyue Palace. Only when she collapsed on her bed did she have the strength to think about everything that had transpired.
After both the Imperial Concubines ratted each other out, Imperial Concubine Mei was sentenced to the Cold Palace whereas Imperial Concubine Hui moved to the Hall of Repentance. Though there were some small disturbances between the two of them, they were later all resolved by Lin Feilu. Later on, Lin Nianzhi got married and had a long talk with Imperial Concubine Hui all night before she left the palace. After that, the tension between Lin Feilu’s side and the Imperial Concubine Hui had become much more peaceful.
She had been stable and calm over the years, so she probably didn’t see a reason to fight anymore.
Things on Imperial Concubine Mei’s side were even hushed however. It seemed like she was content just to stay alive.
But before Song Jinglan left, he made a special trip to kill Imperial Concubine Mei.
This could only mean that Imperial Concubine Mei was secretly still planning to do something. However, it was a pity that before she could initiate her plan, it had become known to Song Jinglan, who had eyes and ears all around the palace back then.
In the end, he took matters into his own hands to help her resolve this issue.
Last night, Song Jinglan returned after killing someone, hugging Lin Feilu with the same hands that silently strangled someone to death. However, she didn’t see the slightest abnormality in him back then as he was still so calm and composed.
Lin Feilu suddenly discovered that her understanding of Pretty Boy might have been wrong in recent years.
The last thing he did for her before he left was to help her kill…
Lin Feilu’s mental state collapsed a little.
I shouldn’t have gone… I shouldn’t have gone over to the Cold Palace out of curiosity to find out. Great, now I’m terrified by the gift that he left me…
Lin Feilu ran to take Xiao Lan’s Buddha beads and put them in her arms. Then, she recited the scriptures in front of the Bodhisattva statue for half an hour before finally dispelling the fear in her heart. It was not until evening that the news of Imperial Concubine Mei’s suicide spread throughout the palace.
No one suspected that anyone killed her. She had been in the Cold Palace for so many years, and everyone assumed that she had already gone crazy, so it was not surprising to them that she committed suicide.
After dinner, someone came from the East Palace and gave Lin Feilu a stack of handwritten Buddhist scriptures.
After hearing about this, Si Miaoran remembered that she had been to the Cold Palace this afternoon, so she quickly copied some scriptures down and sent it to her to bring Lin Feilu some peace of mind.
