Bai Lingling also chimed in, "Yes, Empress Dowager, ever since Jinjin woke up, she's become able to control floods. How could someone change so drastically?"
The empress dowager, who was originally a little doubtful, seemed to suddenly understand something and looked at Bai Jinjin.
Bai Jinjin also looked at the Queen Mother calmly, "Grandma, do you choose to believe it?"
The Queen Mother did not say anything. The wizard played tricks again to make the Queen Mother believe him.
"What nonsense!" Concubine Ye immediately overturned the table and pointed at the mage angrily.
"My Jinjin has always been an ordinary person, but how come you become a monster?" Concubine Ye stood in front of Bai Jinjin and stopped the mage from looking at Bai Jinjin.
"Mother." Bai Jinjin stared blankly at Concubine Ye who was standing in front of her.
Concubine Ye blocked off the gazes of others and said to the mage, "The mage said that our Jinjin is a demon. Then, can you explain why Jinjin would help resolve such an unexpected incident?"
"The Buddha said, it cannot be said." The monk said to Concubine Ye with his hands clasped together and a smile on his face.
Bai Jinjin was beside Ye Jiuge and patted him gently, "I want to eat shrimp, help me peel one."
"Why are you so calm?" Ye Jiuge asked as he peeled a shrimp.
The girl shrugged, "It's hard to be nervous even if I want to."
She is a soul that has traveled through a book, and this guy is obviously playing tricks, so what is there to be afraid of?
"Queen Dowager, I have a way to prove whether the Ninth Princess is a monster or not." The mage said, holding something in his hand.
The Queen Mother was convinced and said, "If that's the case, then please ask the monk to take a good look at it."
Ye Jiuge beside her rarely nudged her waist, which made Bai Jinjin so itchy that she grabbed his hand, "Brother Ye, what's wrong?"
"The thing in this mage's hand has a strange smell?" Ye Jiuge whispered in Bai Jinjin's ear.
After hearing this, Bai Jinjin also smelled that scent, "Could it be that this powder is something that resonates with each other?"
"It's possible. You'd better be careful." After Ye Jiuge gave the reminder, he pulled off the sachet from Bai Jinjin's waist.
"Brother Ye, what are you doing?" Bai Jinjin looked at him in confusion.
Ye Jiuge put his fingers in front of his lips to signal Bai Jinjin not to speak.
Bai Jinjin didn't know what his plan was, so she could only purse her lips and keep quiet.
The mage walked up to Bai Jinjin and said, "The Ninth Princess is indeed a demon. I will let her reveal her true form now. If she is truly a demon, then she will obey my orders and come out."
Concubine Ye still wanted to stop the mage's advance.
"Take Concubine Ye to the other side." The Queen Mother anxiously asked the maid to pull Concubine Ye away.
Concubine Ye was pulled aside by the palace maid without noticing. When she was about to break free, Bai Juncheng, who had come down from the dragon throne nearby, grabbed her. He shook his head at Concubine Ye and motioned her to look at Bai Jinjin.
The woman turned her head to look at Bai Jinjin, only to see Bai Jinjin calmly eating the shrimp that Ye Jiuge handed to her.
Bai Jinjin noticed Concubine Ye's gaze, turned her head towards her, shook her head, and smiled gently.
I don’t know why Concubine Ye suddenly calmed down and became quiet.
"Master, you said that this princess is a monster?" Seeing that things were almost done, Bai Jinjin stood up and walked to the front of the master.
The mage, adhering to the pretense of putting on a complete show, took a few steps back in fear.
"Master, what happened to you?" The Queen Mother asked hurriedly when she saw him retreating in fear.
"This woman is truly terrifying. The resentment in her is directed directly at the Queen Mother." The mage took a few steps back and said.
The Queen Mother didn't care about anything else. She came down from her high seat and walked to a place not far from the mage. "Then what should we do? Can the mage's method solve this problem?"
Bai Jinjin looked at the fascinated empress dowager. It would be a lie to say she didn't feel bitter, but she knew very well that no matter what dynasty it was, as long as it was not modern, people would be very superstitious.
The mage nodded and glanced at Chen Yue imperceptibly. Only when he saw Chen Yue nod did the mage feel relieved.
"I am ready to cast a spell, please step back, Your Majesty." The wizard took out a tiny amount of powder from the bag around his waist and sprinkled it on the talisman.
Bai Jinjin, who was now standing directly opposite him, had clearly seen his movements. "Do you know what you'll face if you fail?"
"I will not fail. This is already prepared." The mage also responded to Bai Jinjin confidently.
The girl chuckled, "If that's the case, then let's wait and see."
As the wizard threw the talisman in his hand, the powder also glowed fluorescently under the flickering candlelight and splashed onto Bai Jinjin's body.
When the mage saw that Bai Jinjin didn't change at all, his face turned pale.
Impossible. This powder can only be used with the sachet she carries. "Where's your sachet?"
"Master, how did you know that I didn't wear the sachet?" Bai Jinjin finally understood why Ye Jiuge had torn off the sachet from her body.
The Queen Mother saw that Bai Jinjin hadn't changed at all and looked at the Master in confusion, "Master, is there anything wrong with this ceremony?"
"Your Majesty, don't worry. I have just eliminated half of the magic power from the witch. I just need to try again." The mage looked at Bai Jinjin with a pale face.
The Queen Mother thought the sorcerer's pale face was due to the loss of his magical power in expelling the resentment from Bai Jinjin. "In that case, please remove the resentment from Jinjin and let her return to her original appearance."
"I will try again." The mage clenched the talisman in his hand, increased the strength and threw it out, but Bai Jinjin still did not react.
"Master, I am a little tired from the journey, so I can't use my full strength." Shen Yue hurriedly stood up and spoke for the master.
Concubine Ye found a breakthrough, "This magician is originally from the Qin territory. I know where these magicians come from best."
Unexpectedly, Concubine Ye actually protected Bai Jinjin and was not affected by the magician at all.
"Empress Ye, it's your daughter who is haunted by the monster. Why are you trying to stop the wizard?" Shen Yue retorted unconvinced.
"Of course I know that she is my daughter, so I believe her unconditionally. This group of liars who pretended to be ghosts at the Empress Dowager's banquet are the real ghosts!" Concubine Ye was so angry that she spoke her heart out without caring about others.
Bai Jinjin comforted Concubine Ye, "Mother, don't worry, let's see if the mage has any other solutions."
As soon as she finished speaking, Bai Jinjin looked at the mage with a playful look in her eyes.
"Monster, you are talking nonsense!" The mage looked at Bai Jinjin with sharp eyes and scattered all the contents of the bag.
Bai Jinjin suddenly started coughing, and everyone present stared at Bai Jinjin, who was bent over due to coughing.
