Bai Juncheng frowned. Why did the queen openly deprive the princess of her things?
"I know about this matter, Li Ji! Go and summon the queen."
Li Ji nodded and walked out. Bai Lingling looked at Li Ji's departing figure, with a dark glint in her eyes. "Queen, don't blame me for being unfair if you don't recognize me."
Bai Jinjin felt pity for the girl crying so hard. If she wasn't a black lotus, she would have liked to play with her.
"Dad, please let Sister Ling and Fourth Brother sit down."
Hearing Bai Jinjin calling him Fourth Brother, the Fourth Prince frowned, but because of Bai Juncheng, he didn't say anything and helped Bai Lingling sit on the chair.
On the other side, Nanny Li told Shen Yue everything that had happened. Shen Yue frowned after hearing it.
"You're saying that you wanted to snatch Bai Lingling's jewelry box, but the Fourth Prince discovered it and said you were going to tell the Emperor?"
Nanny Li nodded hurriedly and said, "Yes, Queen, please save this old slave."
After saying that, she knelt down and looked at Li Ma with an expressionless face.
"How long have you been serving me?"
Upon hearing this, Nanny Li thought for a moment and said, "It has been over five years since I returned to the Empress."
Shen Yue nodded in satisfaction and looked at Li Ma Ma with a half-hearted smile and said, "For over five years, I dared you to pretend to obey me but secretly disobey me?"
Seeing Shen Yue's creepy smile, Nanny Li quickly lowered her head and said in panic, "Your Majesty, please understand. I have never betrayed you."
Nanny Li was a little scared. She relied on the Queen's trust in her and secretly received a lot of benefits. She also got a lot of silver from people punished by the Queen. This time, she wanted the jewelry in the jewelry box in the matter of the Sixth Princess.
Seeing Li Ma's confession, Shen Yue's expression gradually became gloomy.
"If I am implicated in any way today because of your hypocritical behavior, then you should be prepared."
As she spoke, Shen Yue's voice gradually became softer, but every word reached Li Ma's ears. Li Ma's face turned pale and she collapsed to the ground.
Li Ji, who was outside, saw that it was almost done and then went in.
"Your servant greets Her Majesty the Queen."
Only then did Shen Yue put on a smile.
"Eunuch Li, I don't know what Eunuch Li is doing."
Nanny Li on the ground just hoped that it wasn't because of the Sixth Princess.
Unfortunately, Li Ji directly shattered Li Ma's hopes.
"The Emperor asks the Empress to go to Xuanzheng Hall. The Sixth Princess is also there."
It’s over. Nanny Li almost fainted. She was afraid that she would die here.
Hearing this, Shen Yue smiled lightly and looked at Li Ma as if unintentionally, but Li Ma obviously saw the murderous intent hidden in her eyes.
"In that case, please ask Eunuch Li to go back first. I will pack up and then go."
Li Ji nodded and said, "In that case, I will report to the emperor."
After saying that, she walked out. Shen Yue got down from the phoenix chair and walked past Li Ma Ma and said expressionlessly: "Ruyi, take Li Ma Ma away. We can make plans after I come back."
Ruyi behind him bowed and took Li Ma away.
Bai Jinjin was waiting for the Queen's arrival bored. Don't ask her why she had no reason to go, how could she miss such a large event!
"The Queen has arrived!"
Here it comes, finally here! Bai Jinjin looked at the door excitedly, and Bai Juncheng on the side knew what Bai Jinjin was laughing at and could only pat her head helplessly.
"Empress, I just learned that your nanny openly stole the Sixth Princess's things."
Shen Yue raised her eyebrows when she heard this and asked, "Your Majesty, how did you know this?"
The Fourth Prince stood up and bowed, saying, "Today, when I went to see Lingling, I saw a maid trying to snatch the box from the Sixth Princess's arms. I stepped forward to stop her, but she said she was following the Empress' orders."
Bai Lingling glanced at Shen Yue lightly and then lowered her eyes. Shen Yue saw this and said to Bai Lingling, "Lingling, what is going on?"
Wow, isn't she going to admit it? What would Bai Lingling say? Bai Jinjin's eyes rolled around, and she was right not to leave.
Seeing Shen Yue calling her, Bai Lingling looked at Shen Yue with tears in her eyes and said, "Empress, Lingling, I don't know what's going on. I was staying in the palace peacefully, but suddenly a maid came in and said that she was following your orders and took away all the valuables in the room. She also wanted to take away the box that Lingling's mother gave to Lingling."
Bai Juncheng's frown never relaxed after hearing this.
"Queen, is this how you take care of the Sixth Princess? Any maid can bully the Princess."
"Your Majesty, I am truly unaware of this matter."
At this moment, Shen Yue simply wanted to go back to her palace and kill Li Ma, this troublesome old slave!
"In that case, please, Queen, take good care of the maids in your palace! I will never let this happen again!"
Shen Yue could only purse her lips and agree.
"Yes, I understand. In that case, I will go back first."
Go back and kill that servant? Bai Jinjin looked at Shen Yue with a suppressed smile. This was the Queen's Waterloo in life. The scene where she thanked the nanny was quite interesting.
Watching the Queen walk away, Bai Juncheng sighed and said to Bai Lingling and the Fourth Prince, "Since you trust the Queen so much to handle it herself, Hui'er, take the Sixth Princess and leave. I need to deal with the memorials."
The Fourth Prince wanted to say something, but since Bai Juncheng had ordered them to leave, he couldn't stay any longer. He bowed and took Lingling's hand before retreating.
Bai Jinjin looked at Bai Juncheng with some confusion.
"Daddy, why do you seem so tolerant of the Queen?"
Hearing this, Bai Juncheng smiled and said, "The Queen is the head of the harem. I can't interfere too much, I can only give some appropriate advice."
"Daddy is lying. Why didn't you say this when Mother and the Queen were arguing?"
Could Bai Jinjin believe it? Definitely not.
"Oh, Jinjin, go talk to your mother yourself. Your mother has a hot temper and you know the war between two women. It's not easy for me to say anything."
After hearing Bai Juncheng's explanation, Bai Jinjin nodded in agreement and said, "That's right, mother has an extremely hot temper. If the queen wasn't the master of the harem, I feel like mother would have hit her!"
Just as the two were talking happily, a soft female voice came from behind them.
"What are you two talking about so happily?"
The familiar voice made the two of them stiffen. Bai Jinjin looked at Bai Juncheng in horror. Daddy and Mommy didn't hear it, right?
Bai Juncheng blinked and responded to Bai Jinjin, his voice was so soft that he probably didn't hear it.
The father and daughter were relieved immediately.
