The next morning, rumors were circulating in the palace that Shen Yue's vengeful spirit had returned for revenge, causing panic in the entire palace.
This incident did not affect Bai Juncheng's companionship with Bai Jinjin in the palace at all.
"I heard that the Sixth Princess was scared half to death by the Queen's ghost?" Bai Juncheng said as he glanced at Bai Jinjin.
Bai Jinjin looked at Bai Juncheng without any guilt, "Really? I didn't know."
"Tell me, did you do this with Ye Jiuge?" Bai Juncheng asked after taking a sip of tea.
The girl rolled her eyes at Bai Juncheng and said, "Why are you asking me when you already know everything?"
Concubine Ye chuckled at the side, "Your father didn't ask you what you were doing, he asked if you were with Ye Jiuge at night."
"Oh, Daddy had elder brother and second brother with him yesterday, so it wasn't just the two of us." Bai Jinjin glanced at Bai Juncheng coquettishly.
Bai Juncheng snorted coldly, "You are ignorant, but is Ye Jiuge also ignorant?"
"Forget it, Daddy, you just don't like him." Bai Jinjin said.
"The New Year is almost here, and the Three Kingdoms Banquet is about to begin." Bai Jun said with sincerity and hint.
Bai Jinjin snorted lightly, "So what? This Three Kingdoms Banquet is just a display of national strength."
Upon hearing this, Bai Juncheng looked at Bai Jinjin in silence.
"Emperor." The Queen Mother hurried in from the door.
"Why is the Queen Mother so anxious?" Bai Juncheng looked at the Queen Mother blankly.
The Queen Mother didn't expect Bai Juncheng to be so calm. "Everyone in the palace is in a panic now. They're all saying that the Queen is back for revenge."
"Oh, mother, the palace has always been full of false rumors and fabricated stories. You don't have to believe this." Bai Juncheng stood up and said to the empress dowager with a smile.
"If the Queen Mother is worried, I can ask the magician from Baoyue Palace to come and perform a ritual in the Queen's palace." Bai Juncheng said when he saw that she was still worried.
Upon hearing this, the Queen Mother shook her head and said, "As for this mage's matter, after what happened last time, I can't believe it either."
"Then what does the Empress Dowager want to do?" Bai Jinjin said as she put down the things in her hands.
Wouldn't you rather trust a wizard outside the palace? That would be really terrible.
Upon hearing this, the Queen Mother looked at Bai Jinjin and hesitated for a moment before saying, "I think the Wanfo Temple among the people is quite good. I would like to invite the abbot there to come over."
"Then it's up to the Empress Dowager." Bai Jinjin naturally knew what the Empress Dowager was worried about and looked at her with a smile, "As long as the Empress Dowager is at ease, please invite him over."
The Queen Mother didn't expect Bai Jinjin to be so calm. She even tried to comfort herself, "Since Jinjin agrees, I will order the abbot to be brought here."
After saying that, he touched Bai Jinjin's head kindly and left Jinyuan Palace.
"What's wrong with the Empress Dowager? She actually asks Jinjin about such a thing?" Concubine Ye looked at Bai Juncheng in surprise.
At this time, Bai Jinjin had a sly smile on her face.
After being glared at by Concubine Ye, Bai Jinjin retracted her sly smile.
"Last time, the Empress Dowager misunderstood me because of the fake monk incident. So now the Empress Dowager wants to hire someone but is worried that the same thing will happen again, so she came to ask me." Bai Jinjin said, grabbing a piece of dessert.
When Bai Jing and Bai Yu came down from the school, they heard the empress dowager making a big fuss about inviting monks from Wanfo Temple.
"What happened?" Bai Yu said in surprise, looking at the unusually quiet palace.
Bai Jing sighed, "This disturbance must have been caused by what we did last night."
Then he hesitated and said, "Second brother, you sent third brother back last night, why hasn't he shown up today?"
"Well." Bai Yu looked at Bai Jing with a dazed look in his eyes. "It was mainly because I sent him back last night, but he woke up halfway through the journey. I knocked him out with a single blow."
So it was because the attack was too severe that Bai Yan did not show up in class today.
"Forget it, it's his bad luck." Bai Jing seemed particularly unscrupulous at this time.
Bai Yu looked at Bai Jing in surprise, but was glared back at by him. "Wanfo Temple is not the place where we prayed for peace and happiness yesterday?"
"Do you still remember what the abbot said to us?" Bai Jing was a little confused about what the abbot said yesterday.
Hearing this, Bai Yu also carefully recalled what the abbot had said to him yesterday, "What otherworldly soul, Changping prosperous era?"
What is a soul from another world? Bai Jing thought about it for a long time but couldn't figure out what this sentence meant. Now that the abbot is coming today, he will probably be able to find out what he said yesterday.
"Never mind him. The abbot will be here soon anyway." Bai Yu shrugged indifferently.
As they were talking, they turned a corner and went to Jinyuan Palace. Before they stepped into the palace, they heard Bai Jinjin's laughter inside.
"Jinjin really can't spare a day." Bai Jing said with a laugh.
"Brother, you are here." Bai Jinjin turned her head and said when she heard Bai Jing's voice.
Bai Jinjin thought of something while chewing a snack. "Brother, is the Wanfo Temple that Grandma Huang mentioned the temple where you prayed for peace and blessings yesterday?"
The girl just asked casually but she didn't expect the two of them to nod in unison. Bai Jinjin was immediately choked by the snack and quickly drank a sip of milk tea.
"After the Empress Dowager invited him, I decided not to go. I predicted that I would feel uncomfortable at that time." Bai Jinjin said calmly.
Everyone burst into laughter.
"What kind of nonsense is this? Are you sick if you don't want to go to a place you don't want to go to?" Bai Yu said jokingly, looking at Bai Jinjin.
Bai Jinjin nodded in agreement, "What a good reason."
"No, you have to go to the ceremony here." Bai Juncheng cut off Bai Jinjin's retreat, "Everyone will go this time, even if this is your doing, you still have to go."
Concubine Ye turned her head and smiled secretly.
Normally, Jinjin wouldn't go if she said she didn't want to go, but since she found out that Ye Jiuge and Jinjin were together, she has become petty.
"Okay." Bai Jinjin held her chin and looked at Bai Juncheng, which made him feel relieved and said jokingly, "I will take Brother Ye with me."
Bai Juncheng's face suddenly darkened.
"Don't always target others. Don't you know how Ye Jiuge treats Jinjin?" Concubine Ye couldn't stand it anymore and said from the side.
Bai Juncheng snorted coldly, "I don't care. Anyway, Ye Jiuge doesn't meet my standards."
"Then let's wait until Brother Ye meets Daddy's requirements." Bai Jinjin said without refuting Bai Juncheng.
As the saying goes, the more a mother-in-law looks at her son-in-law, the more she likes him. The same is true for Concubine Ye. Although she didn't believe Ye Jiuge at first, after spending such a long time together, she believed that the feelings in Ye Jiuge's eyes were not fake.
"We're going to perform a ritual and pray tonight." Bai Jinjin said with a sigh.
