Ye Jiuge pretended to be surprised and looked at Bai Jinjin.
"What? When did this happen?"
Bai Jinjin was speechless when she saw Ye Jiuge's poor acting skills. How could his acting be so poor?
"Oh, Brother Ye, your acting skills must be so poor!"
Seeing his acting skills being exposed, Ye Jiuge shrugged helplessly and said, "I'm not pretending not to know to tease you, I'm also doing this for your own good."
Bai Jinjin widened her almond-shaped eyes and pointed at herself in disbelief.
"For me? Are you sure?"
Ye Jiuge nodded jokingly and said, "Yes, if I appear to know everything, then you will definitely think that this matter has really spread throughout the palace. If I pretend not to know, then you will still have a safe place to stay."
Bai Jinjin looked at Ye Jiuge angrily.
"You really said everything, leaving me no chance to respond."
Seeing that Bai Jinjin was a little angry, Ye Jiuge hurriedly said, "Instead of being angry with me here, you might as well think about why such rumors are spreading in the palace."
Bai Jinjin thought about it and agreed, but it wasn’t very important right now.
"Brother Ye, I need your help with something."
Ye Jiuge raised his eyebrows and looked at Bai Jinjin.
"Why does Her Royal Highness the Princess keep asking me for help?"
Bai Jinjin quickly started to act coquettishly and cutely.
"Hey, Brother Ye, this happened suddenly. Since you've heard about it, ah, since you know about the rumors, then you must also know that I didn't write this down in the teacher's test."
Ye Jiuge said that he really didn't know. He had not been to the Imperial College in recent days. As a hostage, it wouldn't be a big problem even if he didn't go to the Imperial College.
"Your Highness thinks highly of me. I really didn't know what happened in the Imperial College."
Bai Jinjin didn't care whether he understood or not. She grabbed his sleeve and said, "Brother Ye, please, please, since you are the best, please help me."
Ye Jiuge didn't know why his attitude was so firm this time. No matter how Bai Jinjin acted coquettishly and cutely to beg him, he remained indifferent. It was obvious that she couldn't resist her coquettishness before.
This is too weird, there must be something wrong.
"Brother Ye, can't you really help me?"
Upon hearing this, Ye Jiuge picked up the fan beside him and said calmly, "Your Highness, please be kind. My studies are very poor and I can't help you. Please forgive me."
"Ah, Brother Ye, saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda. Please save Jinjin!"
Ye Jiuge continued to drink tea indifferently, as if he had not heard Bai Jinjin's request.
As soon as Bai Jinjin saw Ye Jiuge's expression, she knew that she couldn't invite Ye Jiuge today no matter what she said. Although she knew that he had no obligation to teach her the knowledge learned in school, she was still angry.
"Since Young Master Ye is so embarrassed, I can't say anything more. It seems that he wants to force me to do something difficult. Since Young Master Ye is so embarrassed, I will take my leave first."
Then she left Ye Jiuge's bedroom without saying a word. Ye Jiuge looked at Bai Jinjin's departing figure with some surprise. She looked really angry. If Bai Jinjin had begged him, he might have agreed, but he didn't expect Bai Jinjin to just leave.
Bai Jinjin sat beside the koi pond in a huff. Perhaps Ye Jiuge's words could fool people he didn't know, but as someone who had traveled through time and space in a book, she knew of course that Ye Jiuge had very good grades.
There's no such thing as not being able to teach because of bad grades. She just makes excuses by saying she doesn't want to do it and then comes up with all sorts of nonsense to put her off.
Bai Jinjin felt a little better when she thought about what she had said before she left. Haha, this man is just trying to seduce me! Isn't it just official talk? Everyone can do that! Don't try to make me act like a spoiled child like that again!
Bai Jinjin was already upset. The eunuchs behind her seemed to be whispering, but in fact, all their words were heard by Bai Jinjin. Bai Jinjin stood up and stopped the eunuchs in annoyance.
"You, that eunuch over there, stop right there."
When the eunuch heard someone calling him, he said impatiently, "Who's calling me little master again? Don't you know who I am?"
When he turned around and saw that it was Bai Jinjin, his face turned pale and he fell to his knees.
"Sir, good luck to Her Royal Highness the Princess."
Bai Jinjin always felt that this eunuch looked very familiar. Upon closer inspection, wasn't this the little eunuch who showed off his power when the eldest prince was under house arrest?
"Oh, who was I thinking? It turns out I was the eunuch who served the eldest prince when he was under house arrest. How's that kick I gave you? Have you recovered?"
The young eunuch trembled and fell to the ground and said, "Slave, I dare not say that it is my blessing to receive the princess's teachings."
Bai Jinjin looked at the trembling little eunuch and sneered.
"Look how scared you are! I didn't do anything to you. You're so brave to say that you dared to withhold the Crown Prince's food while he was under house arrest. What are you afraid of?"
By the end of the story, Bai Jinjin's emotions almost reached the breaking point and she started yelling.
The young eunuch kowtowed to the ground and begged for mercy, "Princess, please spare my life. I will never do it again. Please, Princess, spare me!"
Bai Jinjin smiled.
"Forgive you? Then ask the eunuch next to you if he will plead for you."
When the young eunuch heard Bai Jinjin say this, he crawled to the feet of another young eunuch.
"Hurry up, feed me and beg for mercy."
The other young eunuch looked at him expressionlessly as he prostrated himself at his feet and begged for mercy. Bai Jinjin could tell at a glance that the other young eunuch had probably been bullied by this eunuch for a long time.
"Little eunuch, let me tell you, this might be the only time he crawls at your feet. The next time he crawls at your feet might be you. Think about it carefully."
The little eunuch crawling on the ground turned pale when he heard Bai Jinjin say this. Could it be that she saw something?
The young eunuch standing there suddenly looked resentful and said, "Your Highness, I will not forgive him."
Bai Jinjin nodded in satisfaction. Seeing a guard at the pavilion, he shouted, "Someone come here!"
When the guards heard the call, they all appeared in front of Bai Jinjin.
"Your Highness, may I ask what instructions you have?"
Bai Jinjin lazily raised her finger and pointed at the young eunuch on the ground and said, "Take this eunuch to the clan house for me and interrogate him to find out what he did!"
The guard bowed and took the two eunuchs away. The other young eunuch panicked.
"Your Highness, why should a servant be taken away as well?"
Bai Jinjin laughed out loud when she saw how flustered he was.
"Because you have to give testimony?"
After hearing this, the young eunuch relaxed and allowed the guards to take him away.
