"So that's how it is. The Queen really loves you." Bai Jing sighed with envy, frowned and hid the light in his eyes.
"What are you talking about, big brother? If you like, I can ask mother to make one for you too."
The Second Prince did not think this was a difficult task. Although he liked the pen very much, it did not mean that the pen was important. "Brother, if you like that pen, I will give it to you."
The second prince has always been very generous to his brothers. As long as he has something, he will find the same thing for his brothers.
"A gentleman does not take away what others love. Besides, I think my pear wood pen is not bad." Bai Jing chuckled and patted his shoulder.
Bai Lingling happened to be coming out of the Queen's Palace. She glanced at Bai Jing and the Second Prince in front of her and said, "Second brother!"
The second prince paused, turned around and saw Bai Lingling chasing after him. He glanced at Bai Jing lightly, and sure enough, his smile faded a little.
"Lingling, is there something wrong?" The Second Prince broke the silence and reached out to ruffle her hair. "You hurried back to the room and I thought you had something to do."
Bai Lingling tried to grab the Second Prince's sleeve, but Bai Jing led her back a step. "Lingling, you're grown up now and you should know the difference between men and women. Even if it's between siblings, pulling on sleeves like this is inappropriate."
Bai Lingling's face immediately turned green. Was she being disrespectful? So, was he carrying Bai Jinjin back from the Imperial College to the palace a sign of deep brotherly love?
"Yes, Lingling understands. I won't do it again." Bai Lingling lowered her eyes slightly, her eyes red and her weak look caught the Second Prince's eyes.
"Hey, big brother, what are you doing? I heard from my third brother that you were carrying Bai Jinjin back from school."
"Jinjin is only a little old, but Lingling is almost coming of age. How can they be compared?"
Bai Jing, who already understood everything, was definitely protecting Bai Jinjin. He leaned close to the Second Prince's ear and whispered, "Besides, we brothers are going on a gallop today. If we bring Lingling along, will we be able to enjoy it?"
This made the Second Prince hesitate for a moment. He stepped forward, pinched Bai Lingling's cheek, and looked at her apologetically, "Lingling, Second Brother and the other brothers have things to do today so I won't bring you along?"
The hand in the sleeve was twisting the handkerchief tightly, the eyes were slightly curved and the corners of the mouth were raised. Bai Lingling could only give up the idea of following him.
"In that case, Lingling is being abrupt and has disturbed the two brothers' fun. Lingling will go back first."
After saying that, she turned around and walked back in small steps. Bai Lingling looked back with gloomy eyes. Bai Jing had been avoiding her intentionally or unintentionally since she was put under house arrest. Now she actually rejected her in front of her. What kind of magic did Bai Jinjin have?
Turning and walking towards the Imperial Garden, the Queen was now keeping a close eye on her bedroom. She was only able to write down the things because the Prime Minister had not left.
The Second Prince felt a little guilty as he watched her leave. "Brother, are we going too far?"
"What's too much? Lingling is really about to reach marriage. If she doesn't pay attention to the differences between men and women, what will happen if she suffers?"
The second prince nodded and said, "Yes, Lingling is so innocent. What if something happens? Big brother is really thoughtful."
The eldest prince: Haha.
Bai Lingling was frantically destroying the flowers in the imperial garden. The ferocity on her face was clearly visible, and the aura she exuded made the palace servants nearby dare not approach her.
After she finally calmed down, she turned around and looked at the palace servants who were staring at her closely. A smile played on her lips as she said, "This patch of flowers is full of insects. I was scared so I accidentally destroyed the flowers. Do you understand?"
The palace servants nodded hurriedly and dispersed.
Bai Lingling calmly stepped out of the flowers but saw Bai Jinjin dragging Ye Jiuge over. It seemed that they were about to leave the palace again. Didn’t these two people leave the palace yesterday?
Her eyes were filled with contempt. "As a princess, you actually drag a man around the palace all day long, and even leave the palace several times. You are shameless."
"Is it appropriate for Your Highness to speak ill of her behind her back?"
The sudden voice startled Bai Lingling, and when she turned around, she saw Mo Yunqiu.
He also came to find Bai Jinjin today. As her bodyguard, of course he had to be by her side at all times. As soon as he got here, he found that Bai Lingling was saying bad things about her behind her back.
Although he didn't like Bai Jinjin, he really couldn't like her behavior.
"Mr. Mo, why are you here?" Bai Lingling was very surprised, because the imperial edict issued by Bai Juncheng later was sent secretly to the Zhenguo Mansion, so no one else knew about it.
"Is the Sixth Princess disappointed that Zhenguo Mansion is now safe and sound?"
Mo Yunqiu was very disappointed with Bai Lingling. What happened two months ago had left a mark on his heart. "If your Highness is alright, I will leave first."
There was no way Bai Lingling would let him go. She stepped forward and grabbed his arm, "Listen to my explanation!"
…
The market was crowded with people and vendors were shouting loudly to attract interested people to visit their stalls, making the place full of the atmosphere of life.
Bai Jinjin hummed a little tune and walked leisurely with Ye Jiuge in the streets and alleys.
"Are you here for shopping today?"
The girl rolled her eyes at her and said, "Of course not. I'm here to find the place in my heart to accomplish what I want to do."
Ye Jiuge was stunned when he heard this and rubbed her head. "What? Is there anything you can't tell me?"
"Of course. We can only tell you after we have a rough outline of the matter." Bai Jinjin was very proud. She would definitely go through the entire process to surprise him.
At the stall selling hairpins, Mo Yunqiu seemed to be choosing carefully, but in fact he was listening to what Bai Jinjin wanted to do.
Ye Jiuge's martial arts skills were superior to his, so how could he not have noticed him? He turned and walked into an alley with Bai Jinjin, and sure enough, Mo Yunqiu followed them in.
The girl put her hands on her hips and looked at him, her almond eyes widening as she asked, "What are you doing here? I didn't go to the Zhenguo Mansion to call you today."
Bai Jinjin immediately sensed that something was up with Mo Yunqiu. She pointed her slender finger at him and shouted, "Why are you following me?"
"I just don't understand what you are going to do, and as a guard, I must protect you, right?" Mo Yunqiu looked very innocent. Didn't you ask me to be a guard?
The girl then realized that she had forgotten to tell him what she was going to do yesterday and cleared her throat. "I want to make winter clothes for the soldiers on the frontier."
"Puff." Forgive Mo Yunqiu, he really didn't believe that Bai Jinjin could do it.
Her tone was filled with disdain. "Your Highness the Ninth Princess, I think as a princess you should not take on things that you cannot do."
