The next morning.

Bai Jinjin was still dizzy when she woke up. She rubbed her head but touched another person.

She was so frightened that she quickly stepped back. After seeing who it was, Bai Jinjin looked at Ye Jiuge in surprise, "Brother Ye, why are you here?"

"You don't remember?" Ye Jiuge asked with a chuckle, supporting his head.

Bai Jinjin covered her eyes. Oh my god, can’t this villain straighten his clothes?

"Why are you covering your eyes? It was you who tore my clothes off yesterday." Ye Jiuge said to Bai Jinjin with a joking look on his face.

"What?!" Bai Jinjin stared at Ye Jiuge with wide eyes.

It’s over, it’s over, she actually molested Ye Jiuge.

That's not right. Isn't he my boyfriend? Why am I so scared?

Ye Jiuge was quite surprised to see that Bai Jinjin's expression had calmed down. What on earth was going through this little girl's mind?

Bai Jinjin snorted softly, "You're mine, can't I take a look?"

puff.

Ye Jiuge laughed out loud and lay on the bed, "Where did you learn this from?"

"That's what the storybook says." Bai Jinjin attributed her words to the storybook without hesitation.

Upon hearing this, Ye Jiuge was a little confused. He had never heard of any storybook containing this.

"Your Highness, it's time to get up." Zi Ling walked into Bai Jinjin's bedroom without any warning.

When I opened the door, what caught my eye was the disheveled Ye Jiuge and the rosy-faced Bai Jinjin.

"Sorry to bother you." Zi Ling quickly turned around and left the palace.

Bai Jinjin looked at the direction Zi Ling left with great amusement, "Did Zi Ling misunderstand something?"

"Then do you want to go and explain?" Ye Jiuge stood up and straightened his clothes and said.

"What's there to explain? If I try to explain something that didn't happen, won't it just make things worse?" Bai Jinjin said as she stretched in bed.

Bai Jinjin straightened her clothes and said, "Zi Ling, come in."

"Yes." Zi Ling walked into the bedroom carrying the basin without raising her head, "The water is ready, Princess."

"Hey Zi Ling, look at me carefully. Nothing happened between us." Bai Jinjin originally wanted to tease Zi Ling but she didn't expect that this person really didn't dare to raise her head.

After hearing this, Zi Ling looked at the bed. Sure enough, there was nothing else on it except a little mess.

"I'm sorry, Your Highness, I misunderstood." Zi Ling looked at Bai Jinjin with a flushed face.

Bai Jinjin smiled, wanting to tease her, "What did you misunderstand?"

Zi Ling lowered her head even more and said nothing.

"Stop teasing her." Ye Jiuge went behind the screen, changed his clothes and came out and said.

The girl shrugged and said, "Okay, okay, she was bored anyway."

"Your Highness, a palace servant died with foam at the mouth after eating the Third Prince's meal." Zi Ling said hurriedly.

Bai Jinjin's eyebrows jumped and she thought, "Oh, the truth is exposed."

"Has anyone reported this matter to father?" Bai Jinjin leaned on Ye Jiuge and said.

Zi Ling nodded, "When the Emperor finds out, he'll be furious and will investigate everyone who was in the imperial kitchen last night."

"Wouldn't Bai Lingling be in trouble then?" Ye Jiuge said happily.

"Wow, she's in such a miserable state, why are you so happy?" Bai Jinjin said to Bai Lingling in surprise.

Ye Jiuge chuckled and hugged Bai Jinjin, "Isn't this a very normal thing?"

…

Bai Yan knew that his meal was poisonous and his heart was pounding.

If it weren’t for Bai Jinjin yesterday, I might have died.

But how could Bai Jinjin know that?

"Yan'er, what are you thinking about?" The Queen Mother looked at Bai Yan who was distracted and asked doubtfully, thinking that he was frightened. "Don't worry, thank Jinjin for yesterday. If it weren't for her, you might..."

The Queen Mother paused and sighed, "Never mind, the Emperor is investigating this matter now anyway, it would be best if he could find out the truth."

Bai Yan thought of Bai Jinjin's strange behavior yesterday, and how Bai Lingling always asked him to eat the food on the table. He felt unwilling to trust someone.

"Don't worry, Madam Empress, I won't be scared by such things." Bai Yan said to the Empress Dowager with a smile.

But now Bai Yan wants to ask Bai Jinjin if she knows about this.

"Grandma Empress, I want to go and thank Jinjin." Bai Yan bowed to the empress dowager and turned to leave the palace.

Bai Jinjin rubbed her chin and asked, "Why does my chin hurt so much?"

Upon hearing this, Ye Jiuge covered the corners of his smiling mouth.

"Bai Jinjin." Bai Yan's figure appeared at the door of the palace. He felt a little embarrassed but still walked in.

Bai Jinjin raised her eyebrows, "What's the matter with the Third Prince coming to see me?"

"Did you know that there was poison in my meal at yesterday's banquet?" Bai Yan asked straight to the point.

"Third Prince, you think too highly of me. I only invited you to have dinner with me because you saved me once." Bai Jinjin said with a sarcastic look at him.

Bai Yan was annoyed by Bai Jinjin's attitude. "Don't be like that. I'm just asking."

"Yes, I know who poisoned me, but I don't want to tell you." Bai Jinjin said after taking a bite of the pastry handed to her by Ye Jiuge.

"You know, then why don't you say it?" Bai Yan hurried forward and asked.

Bai Jinjin looked straight at Bai Yan and smiled, "You already have the answer in your heart, why are you asking me?"

Upon hearing this, Bai Yan's pupils widened. It turned out to be her. She actually wanted to kill him.

Seeing that he looked unbelievable, Bai Jinjin kindly reminded him, "If you believe me, you should go tell Father right now."

Bai Yan looked at her blankly, "What did you say?"

"Last time she pushed me to sleep, even though you saved me, you still didn't tell daddy, right?" Bai Jinjin looked at Bai Yan jokingly.

Then he smiled and said, "But that's true. How can the lives of a few palace maids compare to Bai Lingling's life?"

After hearing what Bai Jinjin said, Bai Yan felt that he had nowhere to hide in front of Bai Jinjin.

"Since the third prince can't do it, what's the point of you knowing who it is." Bai Jinjin said indifferently, looking at Bai Yan.

Bai Yan almost fled from Bai Jinjin's palace.

"Jinjin, I didn't realize you felt so oppressed." Ye Jiuge pinched Bai Jinjin's little face and said.

Bai Jinjin sighed. She didn't want to either, but no one knew what would happen if Bai Yan continued to favor Bai Lingling.

"I hit the nail on the head." Bai Jinjin said proudly looking at Ye Jiuge.

Zi Ling was still a little worried, "What should we do now? If the Third Prince wants to exonerate the Sixth Princess."
