Looking at Bai Jing with appreciation, he said, "Jing'er, what you said makes sense. Jinjin, you have to learn from this. You have to learn to use your strengths to make up for your weaknesses."
At the same time, Bai Lingling received the news that Bai Juncheng wanted her to attend a banquet. She was a little confused about what important banquet was going to be held at this time. But since this banquet was notified by Eunuch Li himself, then this banquet must be very important.
Although she asked Eunuch Li why he reported the banquet, Eunuch Li just smiled and said that she would know on the day of the banquet.
The Queen naturally knew the reason for holding this banquet, and looked at Eunuch Li with a grim expression.
"Thank you, Eunuch Li."
Eunuch Li bowed and retreated. The Queen said in a deep voice, "Go and call the Second Prince over."
The second prince, who was resting in the bedroom, put down the book in his hand when his mother called him and followed Ruyi to the queen's palace.
"Your son greets your mother."
The Queen nodded expressionlessly and said, "Yu'er, what have you been doing these days?"
The Second Prince bowed doubtfully and replied, "In addition to attending school these past few days, I have been studying in the palace."
Hearing this, the Queen lost her composure and said in a low voice, "Yu'er, you took the test yesterday, didn't you?"
The Second Prince was startled and replied, "Yes, Mother. The Master praised my son for his progress in understanding certain things."
The queen's expression softened when she heard the second prince say this.
"Is that so? Yu'er, did you know that your father is planning to hold a banquet?"
The Second Prince shook his head and asked, "I don't know why Father wants to hold a banquet."
The Queen didn't say much, and Eunuch Li told her the reason for the banquet because he was the Queen.
If Yu'er told the other brothers about this, it might spoil the emperor's mood. He could only shake his head and say, "My mother doesn't know either. The person who notified this banquet was Eunuch Li, so he must be very concerned about it."
The second prince was confused. If it was so important, why not just ask him to attend on that day? Why say it now?
"What does your Majesty want me to do?"
Seeing that the Second Prince understood her meaning, the Queen finally smiled and said, "It's like this. The palace is arranging a banquet in the next few days, so the school will probably suspend teaching temporarily. Queen Mother would like you to help set up the banquet venue."
The Second Prince thought she was going to ask about something, but when he heard Linglong's words, he couldn't help but feel relieved and said, "Okay, Queen Mother, I will go and ask Father for instructions now."
After saying this, he left the Queen's palace.
The third prince was in the Empress Dowager's palace, accompanying her to copy Buddhist scriptures. He should have gone to find his fourth brother to review his lessons together, but the Empress Dowager said that he should cultivate his character recently and forced him to stay.
"Grandma, I've finished copying it."
The Queen Mother looked at the Buddhist scriptures copied by the Third Prince and shook her head. She said, "Yan'er, your impatience is evident between the lines. How can this be considered a Buddhist scripture?"
The Third Prince was also a little impatient but still said respectfully: "Grandma, I am always thinking about finding my fourth brother, so I am impatient."
The Queen Mother opened her mouth to release the person, but Eunuch Li came in, bowed respectfully, and said, "Queen Mother, the Emperor will hold a banquet in the next two days, and has sent this servant to inform you."
The Queen Mother asked with some confusion, "I wonder why the Emperor wants to hold a banquet?"
Eunuch Li smiled but did not answer. The Queen Mother gave up asking and said, "Tell the Emperor I know."
"The Emperor has ordered that no notification of the banquet be made. Please forgive the Empress Dowager."
The Queen Mother chuckled and said, "You're already so old, yet you're still so mysterious."
The third prince was a little curious when he heard about the banquet. There hadn't been a banquet in the palace for half a year, so the sudden announcement of a banquet was quite exciting.
The third prince went to find the fourth prince after hearing half of it. Presumably, Eunuch Li had not told the fourth brother yet.
"Eunuch Li, let me tell the Fourth Prince. I just need to go find my fourth brother."
Eunuch Li was of course happy to hear this. If the Third Prince told him, he could then go ahead and prepare the invitations to the ministers.
"In that case, I'll have to trouble the Third Prince."
The Third Prince waved his hand and said, "No need. I was going to look for him anyway, it was just on my way."
Seeing the Third Prince's unconcealable excitement, the Queen Mother could only smile helplessly. This child is always so impatient, and she doesn't know if he will still be like this in the future.
Bai Jinjin looked at Bai Juncheng who was still making arrangements and could no longer imagine how grand the banquet would be.
"Daddy! Calm down! The party doesn't need to be so grand!"
Upon hearing this, Bai Juncheng turned around and looked at Bai Jinjin and said, "Jinjin, you should know that this banquet is not only to celebrate your good results, but also because the palace hasn't been this lively for a long time. This is also an opportunity."
Bai Jing nodded in agreement. "Yes, I believe many people would be willing to attend this banquet. Besides celebrating for you, it will also bring some color to the palace after six months of silence."
They're so in sync, they're truly father and son. Their chemistry is incredible.
Concubine Ye looked at the father and son who were singing in unison and walked over to pick up Bai Jinjin and said, "Alright, Juncheng, don't get too excited. Although I'm happy that Jinjin got good results, aren't we inviting too many people?"
Bai Jinjin nodded frantically in agreement when she heard Concubine Ye's remarks, but Bai Juncheng said shamelessly, "I'm the emperor. Can't I hold a banquet for my daughter?"
The mother and daughter were completely defeated, right? He is the emperor and whatever he says is the law. Bai Jinjin said that she should get used to it as soon as possible, and believed that there would be more opportunities to hold banquets in the future.
Forget it, since I can't stop it, I'll just lie down! Following the arrangement, Bai Jinjin, who had figured it out, completely relaxed. She patted Concubine Ye's shoulder and said, "Mother, yes, father is the emperor, the two of us should wait to attend the banquet."
Bai Juncheng looked at Bai Jinjin with satisfaction.
"This is my daughter. When Jinjin grows up, she will attend more banquets. In that case, let Jinjin get used to it in advance."
Bai Jing now stood in complete solidarity with Bai Juncheng and said, "Yes, Imperial Concubine, Jinjin is the emperor's favorite little princess. She will definitely be a part of future banquets and other events."
Bai Jinjin replied to Concubine Ye with her eyes, "Did you see that?" This father and son were so determined that no one could stop them.
At this time, Eunuch Li came back and told Bai Juncheng that the second prince wanted to help him hold a banquet.
Bai Juncheng was delighted, thinking that the Second Prince had finally come to his senses. He said, "Okay, okay, Second Prince, you're so thoughtful. If that's the case, I'll give some of it to you."
