"I just hope that the Sixth Princess can keep our affairs a secret."
"Empress Rou, you are worrying too much. This matter is just a matter of mutual agreement between you and me. You don't need to remind me specifically." Bai Lingling sat on the chair and didn't even stand up to salute.
Concubine Rou glanced at the harmless Bai Lingling and sneered inwardly, "Since the Sixth Princess is so self-aware, I won't say much."
She stood up and was about to leave. When she reached the door, she seemed to remember something and turned her head and said, "I have one more request. I hope you stay away from the Fourth Prince."
"I'm sorry, but I can't obey your command." Bai Lingling stood up and bowed.
Concubine Rou frowned, "What does Sixth Princess mean by this?"
"Lingling is having trouble controlling the Fourth Prince's actions. If he comes here by himself, do I have to send him back?" Bai Lingling looked at Concubine Rou without giving in.
"In that case, Sixth Princess, just pretend that I never said this." Concubine Rou withdrew her gaze. The sharpness in her eyes almost showed through, but her tone did not change at all, and it was still so gentle.
But Bai Lingling felt the cold aura emanating from Concubine Rou.
When Concubine Rou walked out of the door, she saw the Fourth Prince coming towards her.
"Mother, why are you here?" The Fourth Prince asked Concubine Rou who came out of Bai Lingling's room.
Concubine Rou chuckled, "I came to see the Sixth Princess. After all, she lives in the Queen Mother's palace now, and there will be more and more rules to follow. I was worried that she would not adapt, so I came to see her."
"Mother really knows what's in her son's heart." The Fourth Prince said to Concubine Rou with a smile on his face.
Concubine Rou patted the Fourth Prince's shoulder and said, "Then Mother will go back first. Hui'er, remember to come back for dinner."
"Okay, mother." said the Fourth Prince.
Bai Lingling was thinking about Concubine Rou's words in the palace.
"Lingling." The Fourth Prince pushed open the door and saw Bai Lingling sitting on a chair, thinking about something.
"Fourth brother, why are you here at this time?" Bai Lingling stood up and asked.
The Fourth Prince stepped forward and patted Bai Lingling's head. "I'm telling you that Big Brother can't find out anything else now."
Hearing this, Bai Lingling's eyes lit up, "Fourth brother, are you telling the truth?"
"Of course, so Lingling, you can rest assured." The Fourth Prince looked at Bai Lingling with a smile.
"I didn't expect that my fourth brother would get there first." The third prince said as he walked in from outside the door.
Bai Lingling looked at the things in the Third Prince's hand and asked, "Third brother, what's in your bag?"
"The palace maids went to clean up what Fengwei Palace found in your palace. I guess you dropped it somewhere."
The third prince opened the bundle and placed it on the table and said.
After seeing what was inside, Bai Lingling's face turned pale and she quickly hugged the box in her arms, "Thank you, Third Brother. I thought the box was lost."
"What is this, Lingling?" asked the Fourth Prince.
"There's a little piece of jewelry in there that I really like." Bai Lingling made up an excuse to get away with it.
After the two left, Bai Lingling opened the box and checked this year's rice paper. Bai Lingling checked it and found that one piece was missing.
But because Bai Lingling has so much rice paper, I don’t know which one was lost. I hope it won’t be picked up by someone else.
…
Bai Juncheng paced back and forth in Longqing Palace. He had calmed down, but as a man, and especially the emperor, how could he possibly apologize to Concubine Ye?
Then he sat down to review the memorial, but he couldn't read the contents of the memorial at all. Bai Juncheng was still holding his breath, "Li Ji!"
Li Ji burst into tears when he received the call.
In the past, Concubine Ye could suppress Bai Juncheng's temper, but this time the two of them started arguing.
"Li Ji, where are you?"
"I'm here." Li Ji rushed in hurriedly.
Bai Juncheng looked at Li Ji who was nodding and bowing, and the anger in his heart grew stronger and stronger.
"Give me a cup of tea,"
After receiving the order, Li Ji ran out hurriedly and almost bumped into Bai Jinjin who was coming over.
"I deserve to die for offending the Ninth Princess." Li Ji's face turned pale and he knelt on the ground.
Bai Jinjin stumbled back a few steps, "Eunuch Li, what happened to you?"
"Oh, Ninth Princess, the emperor is furious in there, and I feel like my life is in danger." Li Ji complained to Bai Jinjin as if he had found someone to cry to.
"Eunuch Li, please calm down. I'll go make tea with you." Bai Jinjin almost understood what Li Ji was worried about and spoke.
Li Ji's mood suddenly went up and down like a roller coaster. He bowed to Bai Jinjin and said, "Thank you, Your Highness the Ninth Princess."
Bai Juncheng, who hadn't seen Li Ji for a long time, was even more furious. "Li Ji! How dare you neglect your duties to me now!"
"Daddy, what are you shouting for?" Bai Jinjin's clear voice sounded outside the door.
Li Ji entered the room carrying two cups of tea. Bai Juncheng looked at Bai Jinjin in surprise.
"Jinjin, why are you here? Shouldn't you be in Jinyuan Palace at this time?" Perhaps because he was still angry, Bai Juncheng's tone was a bit aggressive.
Bai Jinjin brushed off the snow on her body and said, "I just came from my mother's place and wanted to come see my father."
"What did you call me?" Bai Juncheng frowned and looked at Bai Jinjin.
Bai Jinjin called out calmly again, "Father."
"Jinjin, are you sure I'm angry with daddy?" Bai Juncheng walked up and pulled Bai Jinjin over and said.
The girl shrugged, patted Bai Juncheng's hand and said, "Father, you called yourself 'I' when you quarreled with mother. If Jinjin saw your father, would he also quarrel with you?"
Upon hearing this, Bai Juncheng remembered that he had called himself "I" when he was arguing with Concubine Ye. He closed his eyes and felt very annoyed.
"Dad, have you remembered now?" Bai Jinjin said with a raised eyebrow.
Seeing that Bai Juncheng's mood had stabilized, Li Ji brought him tea.
"But as the emperor, how can I humble myself and apologize to your mother?" Bai Juncheng said while holding Bai Jinjin in his arms.
Bai Jinjin opened her mouth but said nothing, but Bai Juncheng became angrier the more he thought about it. "Your mother has a stubborn personality and has never yielded."
He then put Bai Jinjin on the dragon throne aside and started dealing with the memorials on his own. However, when he saw the three impeachment memorials from the ministers, his irritation increased even more.
Throwing the brush hard on the table, Bai Juncheng said to Li Ji irritably, "Go and call all the princes over!"
Fearing that he would bring bad luck to Bai Juncheng, Li Ji left the palace immediately after receiving the order.
"Dad, why did you call them here?" Bai Jinjin looked at Bai Juncheng in confusion and asked.
Bai Juncheng snorted lightly without responding to Bai Jinjin.
Until Li Ji came back.
