When Bai Jin heard this, she felt disappointed. This prince was too difficult to deal with, wasn't he? She had said so much, could it be that he still didn't understand?

Alas! Your heart is hard to predict.

"Yes, His Royal Highness!"

Yun Zhihan just wanted to put an immediate end to this situation and then everyone could go back home and find their own mothers.

"Madam Xie and Miss Bai Jin are busy. I will go back first."

"Congratulations to Your Highness the Crown Prince!"

"Oh, by the way." The prince added, "If Madam Xie needs any help or needs any help, please let Bai Yuan or Bai Chen come to the palace to find me."

"Thank you, Your Highness, for your kindness." Yun Zhihan also asked, "I heard from Yuan'er that His Majesty is not feeling well. Is he feeling better these days?"

"I'm much better now. Thank you Madam for your concern. I will report the truth to my father."

"This is what I should do. How dare I take credit for it in front of the Emperor and the Crown Prince?"

The prince nodded, said nothing more, and left.

Seeing that the people had left, Bai Jin completely relaxed, "Mom, I'm going home. I'm so sleepy."

Yun Zhihan turned around, smiled at her, grabbed her ear and walked into the house.

"Oh, Mom, it hurts, it hurts, it hurts! What are you doing?" Bai Jin yelled, thinking, did Mom eat firecrackers today? She was so angry.

"What should I do? I want to ask you what you want to do?"

After entering the house, Yunyan came out. Seeing Bai Jin's expression, she wanted to laugh but didn't dare to, and almost got internal injuries from holding it in.

"lady!"

Yun Zhihan let go of Bai Jin, pushed her away, straightened her clothes, and scolded, "What Madam? What should you call me?"

"Cousin, aunt." Yunyan called softly. She was obviously not used to such an intimate address.

"Well, that's pretty much it."

Hearing that the address had been changed, she started to settle old scores again, "Yan'er, I'm not saying anything bad about you, but you've been led astray by this stinky girl."

Bai Jin couldn't take it anymore and retorted, "Mom, you are biased! Why am I the only one who led her astray? You can't find such a well-behaved and lovely daughter like me even with a lantern!"

Yun Zhihan rolled his eyes and complained, "What can't you find? Aren't you the one wandering around outside with a lantern every night?"

Bai Jin was speechless for a moment, it seemed that was the case. It was mainly because she had eaten too much supper, so she dragged Yunyan out to eat.

"Yunyan, from now on, don't spoil her. If she makes a mistake, just beat her up. As long as you don't kill her, I'll pretend I don't see anything else."

"Ah?" Yunyan glanced at Bai Jin silently and asked weakly, "Is this okay?"

"Of course not!" Bai Jin argued, "Mom, are you still my real mother?"

"If you dare to behave so unbecomingly again, I will no longer be your mother!"

Yun Zhihan was so angry that he almost vomited blood. He looked at her desk again and saw a wooden fish and a Buddhist scripture.

"What are you doing?"

"Of course I read. Didn't mother say I was too noisy? If my daughter reads more Buddhist scriptures, she will be able to calm down."

Yun Zhihan didn't want to pay any attention to her and walked out with the wooden fish.

"Eh? Mom, why are you taking my props?"

"Bang!" The door was closed.

"Hey, I don't know what's wrong with my mother. She looks at me with particular displeasure today."

Yunyan looked at her and asked, "Didn't you go to see the prince? How was it?"

"How about what?"

"Is the prince not angry with you in this state?" Yunyan was very curious. As a dead servant, she usually didn't dare to dress so casually to meet her master.

As a lady from a noble family, Bai Jin actually had such courage. She felt that she was so reckless.

"No, not only was he not angry, he even said he was not busy anymore and wanted to take me out for a trip."

"He likes you?" Yunyan suddenly felt an inexplicable sense of loss in her heart.

Bai Jin waved his hands and analyzed, "From my point of view, he may not like me very much, but he must think that the Xie family is useful."

"If he can marry me into the palace, it will be a little more certain."

"Then would you?"

"what?"

"Marry the prince."

"Of course I don't want to. Once you enter the palace, it's like entering a deep sea. I don't even know how I died." Bai Jin felt terrified just thinking about it.

"Will your aunt stand by you?"

Bai Jin was silent for a moment, then replied, "I think I'm on my side, but she's not sure she can save me right now. Well, it's not all her fault."

No matter what my mother's status is, once the imperial decree is issued, no one will have room for maneuver unless she dies.

Death? Bai Jin suddenly had an idea, but she couldn't say it. It seemed that she could only rely on her mother to help cover it up.

"What are you thinking about?" Yunyan asked curiously when she saw that she was silent and in a daze.

"Nothing." Bai Jin changed the subject. "What about you? What kind of man do you want to marry in the future? My mother loves you so much, she will definitely choose a good husband for you."

Yunyan shook her head. "Before coming to the Xie family, I never had freedom. If I have a choice in the future, I hope to travel around the world and live without constraints."

If Bai Jin is willing, she can protect her for life.

"Oh, I can't believe that our ideals are quite similar."

Yunyan blushed instantly and lowered her head without saying a word.

……

After Yun Zhihan returned to the house, he started beating the wooden fish.

Seeing her like this, Jin Shang was very curious, "Madam, what's wrong with you?"

"Ah!" She sighed and replied, "It's okay. Too many things have happened recently. I'll knock the wooden fish to calm down for a while."

"Tongzi, I'm afraid the emperor won't have much time left."

"Yes, Hanhan, the medical conditions in ancient times were too poor. Moreover, the emperor worked day and night, and was exhausted both physically and mentally. His old illnesses were not cured, and he had new ones. If this continued, the situation would be bad."

"Does this mean that the Xie family is going to take sides?"

"Yes. Hanhan, have you decided to support the prince?"

"Who else could it be but him?" One had to admit that although the prince was very suspicious, everything he did was for the benefit of the people.

Moreover, apart from him, there is no more suitable candidate among the royal family and nobles.

"By the way, where is General Tuoba? How is he?"

"Hanhan, don't worry. General Tuoba has already obtained the military seal. Now Dongyue State is leaderless. In addition, he has great military achievements. Many ministers are still willing to support him to take the throne."

"He has now taken over the throne temporarily and started reviewing memorials. Everything is ready, except for the east wind."

Yun Zhihan understood that this Dongfeng was King Fenyang. As long as he aroused the indignation of the southern people, war would be imminent. At that time, both the Great Zhou Kingdom and the Dongyue Kingdom would be reshuffled.

"Hanhan, do you think the prince loves Bai Jin?"

"Of course not!" She answered without hesitation, "At most, I like him. He is the crown prince, the future emperor, how could he focus on love affairs?"

"If that's the case, why did you marry Bai Jin?"

"Maybe they want to completely control the Xie family."
