Since we can't keep Yu'er away from Bai Lingling, we might as well take this opportunity to let him improve his talents. I believe that keeping him hanging with this reason should be more effective.
The second prince never thought that Bai Lingling was bullied because he was not strong enough. He finally understood why his mother asked Linglong to tell him to stay away from Bai Lingling. Was it because of this? His eyes suddenly became firm. Then he would find a way to become stronger.
"Thank you, mother, for your advice. I understand."
Shen Yue nodded in satisfaction and said softly, "Yu'er, as long as you understand, everything your mother does is for you. Your mother hopes that Yu'er can understand."
The Second Prince nodded obediently and said softly, "Since that's the case, your Majesty, I will return to the banquet first."
Shen Yue originally wanted to let the second prince stay here, but when she thought about other things that happened at the banquet, she nodded and agreed to let him go back.
"In that case, Yu'er, go back quickly. If the emperor doesn't see you for a while, he will probably look for you."
The girl gently covered her mouth. It was already 3 p.m., and the lights were still on at the banquet. There was still singing and dancing. What's more, many women came forward to show off their talents. Her tone was a little tired.
"Why is this party so boring?"
Bai Juncheng also felt that such a banquet was very boring. Almost every banquet was like this. He thought there would be something new this time, but unexpectedly there was nothing.
Suddenly Bai Jinjin thought of something and her eyes lit up as she looked at the man on the dragon throne.
"Dad, Jinjin thought of something fun."
The man looked at Bai Jinjin with great curiosity.
"Then Jinjin, tell me what's fun?"
Concubine Ye on the side glanced at the father and daughter, and gave them a nasty look with her delicate eyebrows.
"You two are never quiet for a moment."
Bai Jinjin stuck out her tongue mischievously.
"Oh, mother, this party is so boring. Since it's a party held for me, Jinjin, can you say something fun?"
Bai Jing patted Bai Jinjin's head as if warning, but said with a doting tone, "You'd better behave yourself and don't ask for too much."
Well, Bai Jinjin expressed her dissatisfaction. She hasn't done anything yet. What does it mean that these two people are acting like they are guarding against thieves?
"I didn't say anything excessive! What are you doing?"
The girl looked angry and hugged her shoulders with her little hands like a pufferfish, which made Ye Jiuge, who had been paying attention to her, laugh out loud. This little girl still couldn't stop the party.
Many women were mesmerized by Ye Jiuge's smile and shyly covered their faces with handkerchiefs. However, a few brave ones came forward to chat with him.
"Mr. Ye, I am the daughter of the XX Mansion. I wonder if I could have the honor of getting to know Mr. Ye?"
Hearing this, the man gave an ambiguous smile.
"Oh? What do you want to know, young lady?"
When the girl heard this, joy flashed in her eyes. She thought there was something special about this hostage from the neighboring country, but it was nothing special. Her tone was tender and delicate, like a girl's.
"This, Young Master Ye seems to be more straightforward than I thought."
Bai Jinjin seemed to sense something and looked in the direction of Ye Jiuge. She happened to see a female relative flirting with Ye Jiuge. She couldn't help but feel a little surprised. This girl was really brave.
Then he supported his chin and looked in the direction of Ye Jiuge with a playful expression. Of course, he had to take a good look at such a rare opportunity.
Someone's eyes fell on Ye Jiuge. Of course he knew who it was. Who else besides Bai Jinjin would dare to look at him so directly? He couldn't help but feel a little amused. The girl really didn't mind watching the fun.
"I always speak like this. If you feel uncomfortable, please go back."
Such an obvious order to expel the guest made the girl in front of him turn pale. She smiled and walked back from Ye Jiuge's seat to the other female relatives out of courtesy.
When the many female relatives saw Ye Jiuge talking to the girl with a smile, they thought that he accepted the girl's meaning, but the embarrassment on the girl's face was clearly seen by everyone.
There was a hint of gloating on his face.
"How is this Mr. Ye?"
The girl couldn't help but roll her eyes and said, "Didn't you see it? He's a very difficult person to approach."
A female relative was a little confused.
"It only took a few words. How did you know?"
When this matter was mentioned, the girl's face turned sour.
"After just three sentences, you silently asked to leave. Do I have to stay here shamelessly?"
The female relatives also looked regretful.
"Ah, so cold and cruel?"
"I can't believe it. I thought being cold meant having a hard expression, but I never thought you could actually say embarrassing things while smiling."
The girl frowned in dissatisfaction and spoke in a somewhat arrogant tone.
"I'm just a proton from a neighboring country. What's there to be proud of?"
The girl who was listening to her words quickly covered her mouth.
"Are you crazy? Have you forgotten that Sister Huang was punished for speaking rudely to him?"
The girl then looked at it in panic and covered her mouth.
"What should I do? What should I do? I hope Her Highness the Ninth Princess won't hear it."
As the girl spoke, she looked in Bai Jinjin's direction with a bit of fear in her eyes. She breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that Bai Jinjin didn't notice her. She had finally attended the banquet and couldn't be taken back.
Bai Jinjin didn't care too much when she saw the girl leave. She knew that Ye Jiuge would never accept this girl, but she still looked at him with a teasing look.
The man turned around and looked at Bai Jinjin, his eyes full of smiles as he mouthed a reply to Bai Jinjin, "Are you satisfied with what you see?"
Bai Jinjin was not panicked when she saw that she was discovered. After all, she believed that the villain had discovered her since she was staring at him, so she replied with her lips without fear.
I had a lot of fun watching it.
As expected, Bai Jinjin received the man's helpless smile. She grinned and laughed out loud without caring at all. She knew that Ye Jiuge could not do anything to her.
By the evening of the twilight hour, the banquet was almost over. Many officials, along with their wives and children, boarded their carriages and left. Bai Jinjin wanted to leave, but as the host, how could she excuse herself first? Even though she was a princess, she didn't have to deal with such formalities.
But it seems that I can't ignore my own party after all.
Bai Juncheng and Concubine Ye had already left, but the empress dowager was still sitting there, smiling gently and waving at Bai Jinjin, and the girl then came forward.
"Grandma, are you really enjoying today's banquet?"
The Queen Mother touched Bai Jinjin's delicate cheek kindly, her voice sounding a little tired.
"Grandma Huang is very happy today, and she's very happy for Jinjin. Jinjin has made such great progress in just one month."
