Villainess Wants To Turn Over A New Leaf
chapter-197

Consort Hui suppressed the fright in her heart as she walked over and sat on the side of the bed, holding her hand, “Younger sister is ill, you should take care of yourself. So why are you crying like this?”

Imperial Concubine Mei said dumbly, “I am already in this state, so it won’t get any better no matter how I treat it. I’m just afraid that sister will feel scared when you see it.”

Consort Hui comforted her, “Even so, your maternal family is still here. Your father, Sir Liu, is now managing floods in the Southern River and has won the hearts of the people with his pure heart. It’s better for you to live well than to let yourself fall further.”

Imperial Concubine Mei smiled bitterly and remarked, “If it were not for my father, I am afraid that His Majesty would not stop at only lowering my position.”

Consort Hui sighed, “I always told you that you must not act rashly and be very careful. So why did you just…sigh.”

Talking about it made Imperial Concubine Mei’s tears fall again. She cried and gritted her teeth, “Don’t you remember how His Majesty pampered that b*tch Xiao Lan? I can bear with His Majesty adoring her beauty, loving her talent, and even her dull and boring temperament! When I returned from the main palace, His Majesty never turned over the signs again, but his love for the Fifth Princess became deeper and deeper. If I hadn’t made preparations beforehand, the odds of Xiao Lan being favoured again would be just around the corner, and everything we did back then would be in vain!”

When Concubine Mei and Xiao Lan entered the palace around the same time, Consort Hui was already a consort. Without the secret help of Consort Hui, Concubine Mei would not have been able to administered Xiao Lan the medicine that resulted in her premature delivery, causing her to fall out of favour.

The two of them have been tied to the same boat over the years. Consort Hui had the Eldest Princess and Imperial Concubine Mei had a beautiful appearance. The two could help each other if they wanted to stand tall in this beautiful harem.

Now that Imperial Concubine Mei had been demoted, Consort Hui resembled the state of having a broken arm. Even if she wanted to avoid suspicion, she had to come to the Yinshuang Palace.

If Imperial Concubine Mei rushed to act hastily like a dog and caused a commotion, it would be fine if she died along with the ruckus. But if she remained alive and spoke of the numerous deeds that the duo once did, even Consort Hui would be dragged along into the water.

Consort Hui had to patiently comfort her, “Sister, don’t forget, what is the source of His Majesty’s dislike. Is it Xiao Lan herself?” She whispered, “No, it’s that fool. As long as the fool is alive for one more day, the grudge in His Majesty’s heart will never disappear. Even if Xiao Lan regains his favour, it is absolutely impossible to reach the point where things were back then. That fool will grow up, and the older he gets, the more obvious his foolishness will be. With His Majesty’s temperament, it would be unbearable no matter what.”

Imperial Concubine Mei’s dim and darkened eyes gradually overflowed with the viciousness of a snake as she grabbed Consort Hui’s hand, “Sister! I know I will be hopeless in the future with this face of mine… but Xiao Lan can’t live better than me! Even if I die, I will drag her to Hell together! And the Fifth Princess, who is so vigilant and possesses intellectual foresight far beyond her age, must not be kept alive either!”

Consort Hui had long known that this woman was vicious, but at this moment, she felt a chill in her heart when she said such words.

Drag her to Hell together…

If she goes crazy, would she drag me along to Hell as well?
