You're asking me about this? Bai Jinjin spread her hands and said, "Dad, you can handle this kind of thing yourself. I'm just someone who eats with you."
When the ministers heard this, they all laughed good-naturedly.
"Your Majesty, I think the Ninth Princess is right. She has made a lot of contributions this past year." The General said with a smile, "Why do you still ask the Ninth Princess to give you advice?"
Bai Jinjin nodded hurriedly, "That's right, Daddy."
After hearing this, Bai Juncheng thought about it and agreed.
Seeing this, Bai Jinjin bowed playfully to the ministers from behind Bai Juncheng, and then quickly returned to her serious demeanor.
"Dad, I'll go back first." Bai Jinjin said and ran out.
"This stinky girl." Bai Juncheng scolded with a smile.
Bai Lingling knelt in the main hall, neither standing nor kneeling.
"Sixth Princess, go back too. I hope you can behave yourself. Tomorrow is New Year's Day and I don't want to start a killing spree." Bai Juncheng said lightly as he sat back on the dragon throne.
Bai Lingling nodded hurriedly and left the Xuan Zheng Hall.
After this incident, all the ministers who had a good impression of Bai Lingling lost their confidence.
When the Queen Mother learned that Bai Yan was under house arrest because of Bai Lingling, she sighed, "I knew this day would come, but I didn't expect it to happen so soon."
"Empress Dowager." Nanny Zhu looked at the Empress Dowager worriedly.
"Forget it, children and grandchildren have their own blessings. I am old and can no longer take care of him," the Queen Mother looked particularly old at this moment.
Bai Yan was arrested and confined to another palace, but Bai Jinjin had no intention of visiting him.
"Jinjin, are you really not going to go see him?" Bai Jing looked at Bai Jinjin in confusion.
"It's only been a few hours, and he hasn't even figured things out yet if I go there now, what am I going to do?" Bai Jinjin said calmly while drinking tea.
Ye Jiuge sneered, "I really don't understand why you liked Bai Lingling so much back then."
Upon hearing this, Bai Jing and Bai Yu looked at each other. They couldn't say that because they had the memories of their previous life, they wanted to make up for the mistakes of their previous life in this life, right?
"Is this question difficult to answer?" Bai Jinjin looked at the two of them in surprise.
Bai Yu hesitated for a moment, "It's not that difficult to answer, but I'm just afraid you won't believe me if I answer."
"You don't mean to say that you have memories of your previous life, so this is how you are in this life, right?" Bai Jinjin said teasingly to the two of them.
Bai Jinjin froze on the spot as soon as she finished speaking. How did she finish telling the story?
Bai Jing looked at her in shock, "How did you know?"
"Please, brother, I was just joking. Don't tell me I was serious?" Bai Jinjin hurriedly tried to explain herself.
The two people opposite him breathed a sigh of relief.
"It's because you are favored enough that we can play with Bai Lingling." Bai Yu said.
"What a far-fetched reason." Bai Jinjin said without hesitation.
Ye Jiuge felt that what they said might be true, "Forget it, Jinjin, they don't want to say it because of other reasons."
Damn, are you trying to help or do you think their problem is too small? Bai Yu couldn’t help but glare at Ye Jiuge.
"Okay, then I won't ask." Unexpectedly, Bai Jinjin really didn't ask them.
The next day.
Bai Jinjin put on the court dress specially for the princess and went to worship the sky.
It was finally over. Bai Jinjin sat at the dinner table and asked, "Why is the New Year so painful?"
"It's only like this today, don't worry." Concubine Ye chuckled and stroked Bai Jinjin's head.
What Bai Jinjin didn't expect was that his father actually didn't let him out for such an important matter as Baitian?
"Emperor, it's New Year's Day today, just let Yan'er out." The Queen Mother couldn't help but plead.
Bai Juncheng refused to give in, "Queen Dowager, Yan'er followed the Sixth Princess and made mischief, even teasing you, Old Master. This makes it very difficult for me to handle."
Hearing Bai Juncheng say this, the empress dowager sighed. She didn't expect the situation to be so serious that the emperor would not give in at all.
"Dad, why don't we just release the third prince today?" Bai Jinjin said after thinking for a while.
The empress dowager was a little surprised that Bai Jinjin would plead for mercy. Looking at Bai Jinjin's playful eyes looking at her, the empress dowager laughed.
"The Third Prince is the Empress Dowager's companion every year. Let's make an exception today. If you really want to punish him, it's not too late tomorrow," Bai Jinjin said coquettishly, pulling Bai Juncheng's sleeve.
Bai Juncheng couldn't stand Bai Jinjin's coquettishness and could only agree, "Okay, then let's do as Jinjin says."
After saying that, he cleared his throat and said, "It's just that the Third Prince will continue to be under house arrest tomorrow."
Knowing that this was Bai Juncheng's biggest concession, Bai Jinjin nodded hurriedly, "Daddy Crab~"
"Grandma Empress, let's go pick up the third prince now." Seeing Bai Juncheng turn around and leave, Bai Jinjin took the empress dowager's hand and walked away.
Bai Yan was imprisoned in a remote palace, but fortunately the palace people knew that he was the Queen Mother's beloved prince and would not do anything to him for the time being.
The palace gate was opened, and Bai Yan looked at the door with blank eyes.
"Grandma Empress, why are you here?" Bai Yan suddenly stood up and looked at the Empress Dowager and Bai Jinjin beside her in surprise.
Bai Yan snorted coldly, "How could the Ninth Princess have the leisure to come and see me?"
It's not me who put you under house arrest. If you hadn't been making up stories about me behind my back, would you have done that? Bai Jinjin rolled her eyes at him and said nothing.
"Yan'er, your father has decided to make an exception and let you celebrate the New Year with us today, but you will have to come back and be under house arrest tomorrow." The Queen Mother touched Bai Yan's head and said with concern.
Bai Yan chuckled, "Then what does this matter have to do with Bai Jinjin?"
"It was Jinjin who begged the emperor to allow you to celebrate the New Year with me." The empress dowager frowned and reprimanded softly.
Bai Yan looked at Bai Jinjin in surprise.
"Good intentions are never rewarded." Bai Jinjin rolled her eyes at him, let go of the empress dowager's hand, and turned to leave.
Looking at Bai Jinjin's leaving figure, Bai Yan felt a little complicated. He seemed to not understand Lingling now.
And he could also understand his elder brother's feelings at that time.
Bai Lingling has never come to see him, not even once.
"Grandma Empress, am I wrong?" Bai Yan looked at the Empress Dowager blankly and asked at a loss.
The Queen Mother smiled kindly, "This matter requires Yan'er to judge for himself."
Even the Queen Mother couldn't give herself a definite idea. Bai Yan pursed his lips and followed the Queen Mother out.
"Princess, what should we do now?" Qinglian asked.
Bai Lingling hadn't appeared in public for the entire day. "All we can do now is distance ourselves from the matter."
But after she has avoided the limelight, she will try hard to make Bai Yan trust her again.
"But the Three Kingdoms Banquet will be held in a few days."
