Fan Shiming collapsed completely on the ground. He was finished. He had been dominating the capital for so many years without being discovered, but today he was caught by a member of the royal family.
Soon the Imperial Guards arrived at the door of the Imperial Restaurant with great momentum.
"Greetings to His Royal Highness the First Prince, and to Her Royal Highness the Ninth Princess."
Although everyone already knew that the man in blue was the eldest prince, they did not expect that the woman was actually Bai Jinjin, the apple of the eye of the current emperor.
Fan Tong had heard of Bai Jinjin's name, but he had always thought that it was impossible for the Ninth Princess, a noble lady, to visit the common people. He immediately crawled to Bai Jinjin's feet and tried to grab her skirt.
Bai Jinjin dodged nimbly and ran to the other side of the white mirror. She imitated the arrogant manner of princesses of past generations and replied with a tone full of malice: "You little bastard, you still want to touch the corner of this princess's clothes? Dream on!"
Bai Jing kicked Fan Tong to his uncle's side and looked at him with disgust.
"The Imperial Guards have taken away Fan Shiming's official hat and thrown him into prison! I want him to confess all his crimes!"
"yes!"
Seeing this, Bai Jinjin quickly added, "And that good-for-nothing! Take him away with you!"
"Princess, please spare my life!"
"Your Highness, I have my reasons!"
Bai Jinjin was almost sick of hearing this trick. She crossed her arms and said sarcastically, "Are you trying to say that everything you did today was for your deceased sister? You have elderly parents and young children at home, too."
Seeing Fan Shiming's shocked expression, Bai Jinjin knew that she was right. She was speechless and wanted to say something to Fan Shiming.
Bai Jinjin waved her hand impatiently and said, "Hurry up and take him away. You keep saying the same old things over and over again. I'm tired of him, but not me."
After the man was taken away, Bai Jing looked at Bai Jinjin curiously and asked, "Jinjin, how did you know what this man would say?"
The girl stuck out her tongue and said with a smile, "Brother, that's what it says in the storybook. I'm tired of reading it."
Hearing this answer, Bai Jing laughed dumbly. He straightened Bai Jinjin's messy hair and asked, "Jinjin, do you still want to go to the Imperial Food House for dinner?"
"Go ahead, since we've ordered the dishes, we have to try them, right?"
Please, Bai Jinjin will go back if you don’t order any dishes.
The two of them went upstairs as if they didn't see Qingfeng and Lou Jingyue.
It was Lou Jingyue who spoke up and stopped them both.
"Please stay, both of you."
The girl looked back at the beautiful woman who had saved her in confusion, and laughed out loud. Her almond-shaped eyes seemed to be like blood pressure as she said, "Pretty sister, no one is bullying you now, you can go."
Bai Jing didn't say anything. Without even turning back, he pulled Bai Jinjin upstairs and said calmly, "Jinjin, hurry up or the food you ordered will get cold."
This won't do. Upon hearing this, Bai Jinjin took the initiative and pulled Bai Jing to the second floor.
"Then hurry up! The food won't taste good if it gets cold!"
He didn't care at all about the sensation caused by exposing his identity.
"This is the eldest prince. I never thought I would be able to see the eldest prince and the ninth princess in my lifetime."
"Yes, I didn't expect the Ninth Princess to be so imposing. No wonder she is the most favored princess of the current emperor."
The woman in white was stunned when she heard this. She didn't expect that the person she saved was the Ninth Princess. She was afraid that he would be very happy if he knew it.
Qingfeng stamped his feet in anger and said, "Young lady, how can these two be so rude?"
Watching Bai Jinjin and the other two walk to the second floor, Lou Jingyue calmly brushed off the non-existent dust on herself and said, "They are members of the royal family, so it's normal for them to have some temper. Moreover, they didn't stand idly by but helped us. What else do you want?"
Qingfeng scratched his hair in confusion and asked with a puzzled look on his face, "Then why did the young lady call them both?"
Lou Jingyue took the lead and walked forward, covering her face with gauze.
"They helped you, shouldn't you say thank you? Otherwise, since it's not necessary, let's go."
Qingfeng, who was left alone, was still thinking about Lou Jingyue's words. When she came to her senses, Lou Jingyue had already walked some distance away. Seeing this, Qingfeng shouted anxiously: "Eh? Miss! Wait for me."
Bai Jinjin upstairs saw such a silly little maid for the first time. She laughed so hard that tears came out, and gently wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with her fingers.
"Brother, look, this little maid is so funny."
Bai Jing, who was standing by, shook his head helplessly. He picked up a piece of green vegetables and handed it to Bai Jinjin, then pointed at her bowl with his chopsticks and said, "Alright, eat quickly. You are being a hero, but you almost scared me to death."
Bai Jinjin of course knew that Bai Jing was talking about jumping off the building, but she hadn't bungee jumped for a long time, and she was sure that nothing would happen and it wouldn't be a big deal.
But looking at Bai Jing's expression, if she showed no concern, she would probably be tortured to death on the spot, right? Bai Jinjin shuddered at the thought.
He glanced at Bai Jing in a flattering manner and said, "Brother, please forgive Jinjin this time. The incident happened suddenly and we were surrounded by people. Jinjin really had no choice."
Her eyes were full of grievance, and it looked like Bai Jing was bullying her.
Bai Jing helplessly reached out and tapped her little head, looking at her as if warning, and said, "Only this time, you absolutely cannot do this this time. Got it?"
Seeing this, the girl nodded hurriedly and smiled.
"I know that big brother treats me the best."
…
After finishing the meal, Bai Jinjin patted her belly, looked at Bai Jing with satisfaction, and said lazily, "Brother, their food is really delicious!"
Judging from the dishes just now, the owner of this restaurant should not be a time traveler. If he was, according to the plot of the novel, he should have lamb skewers or something like that.
Bai Jinjin couldn't describe her mood. She was somewhat relieved that she was the only one who traveled through the book, but also sad that she was the only one who traveled through the book. Suddenly, the happiness she had at the beginning disappeared.
Bai Jing shook his head to indicate that he didn't understand the girl's sad story. Bai Jing looked at the sky and saw that it was almost time, so he stood up and pulled Bai Jinjin up.
"Alright, Jinjin, we're going back to the palace. You've had fun for almost the entire day. Are you satisfied?"
Bai Jinjin, who had wanted to pretend to be a melancholy girl for a while, was now really melancholy. She always felt like she had done nothing today. However, because it was really late, Bai Jinjin could only nod reluctantly.
Following Bai Jing's footsteps, the two got on the carriage and returned to the palace. Bai Jinjin drank another cup of milk tea in the carriage. Bai Jing's understanding of Bai Jinjin's appetite had made a qualitative leap today, and now he had accepted Bai Jinjin's appetite calmly.
