Female Transformation: I Run Away When I See the Female Lead

For a moment, countless thoughts flashed through his mind. He really couldn't understand why Jiang Yunjiu appeared here. Was she really here to help him?

But when we contacted each other before, her attitude was so cold and distant.

Full of suspicion, he stared at Jiang Yunjiu, trying to find a hint of answer from her expression.

Jiang Yunjiu folded his hands in front of him, his face expressionless, as if he didn't care at all about his current situation as the person chosen by Bai Jin.

Bai Jin walked over with a puzzled look in his mind and lowered his voice beside Jiang Yunjiu and asked, "Why are you here?"

Eunuch Zhang only remembered that the emperor had firmly asked Bai Jin to pick a wife at today's banquet, but he did not specify who the specific candidate was.

Even though Jiang Yun wine was chosen, Eunuch Zhang did not let Bai Jin choose again.

Jiang Yunjiu raised her head slightly and looked at Bai Jin. Her eyes were calm, but her tone was calm and a little angry as she said, "Can't I come?"

Bai Jin was choked by her words and didn't know how to respond for a moment. He could only mumble, "No, I just didn't expect you to come..."

Jiang Yunjiu snorted softly and turned her head away, no longer looking at him.

Bai Jin stood by and touched his nose awkwardly, not knowing what to do next.

The guests around saw this scene and began to whisper.

"How come this person has some relationship with the Third Prince..." A woman couldn't help but whisper as she watched Bai Jin and Jiang Yunjiu whispering to each other.

"They seem to know each other, they look very similar...how should I put it, old acquaintance?" Another woman touched her chin, thinking about her words.

Eunuch Zhang looked at the scene where everyone was discussing, cleared his throat and said, "Since the Third Prince has made his choice, I should report to the Emperor."

After saying that, he hurried away from here in small steps.

After Eunuch Zhang left, Bai Jin looked at Jiang Yunjiu with a hint of guilt in his eyes. He could only turn around and explain to Jiang Yunjiu:

"Well, I'm sorry for involving you. I didn't see clearly it was you at the time, I just pointed casually, I didn't expect..." Bai Jin's voice became smaller and smaller, and in the end he seemed a little lacking in confidence.

Jiang Yunjiu looked at Bai Jin quietly, with no expression on her face. Her eyes were as deep as the sea, making it impossible to guess what she was thinking.

After a long while, she said calmly, "It's come to this." Her tone was so calm, as if all this had nothing to do with her.

Only Bai Jin foolishly thought that he had accidentally mixed Jiang Yunjiu in. What he didn't know was that all this was part of Jiang Yunjiu's plan.

At the same time, in the imperial study, the emperor was sitting at his desk, concentrating on reviewing memorials.

Eunuch Zhang walked in quietly, bowed, and said, "Your Majesty, the Third Prince has already chosen someone."

The emperor paused with his pen in his hand, raised his head and asked, "Whose?"

Eunuch Zhang hesitated for a moment and said cautiously, "Young Master of the Jiang Family in Jiangcheng."

The emperor frowned, as if thinking about something. After a moment, he said, "Jiang family? Never mind. Since it was chosen by the Third Prince, let's start making arrangements for the follow-up matters."

As soon as the emperor gave the order, the decree quickly spread throughout the capital.

When Bai Chenye learned that the emperor had ordered the Third Prince and Jiang Yunjiu to get married in a month, he was furious and immediately went to the imperial study in the palace where the emperor was.

Entering the imperial study, Bai Chenye suppressed his anger, knelt respectfully and said, "Greetings, father."

The emperor was sitting behind the desk, holding a memorial in his hand. He looked up at Bai Chenye calmly and said, "What are you doing here?"

The anger in Bai Chenye's heart surged like a raging wave, nearly drowning his rationality. However, he knew that he could not act recklessly in front of the emperor. He could only grit his teeth and try hard to suppress the emotion that was about to burst out. He said in a slightly accusing tone:

"Father, why did you cancel my engagement with Jiang Yunjiu and instead let my third brother marry Jiang Yunjiu? I really don't understand." Bai Chenye's eyes flashed with resentment and confusion as he stared at the emperor closely.

Upon hearing this, the emperor put down the memorial in his hand, crossed his hands on the table, and said coldly with an irresistible majesty in his eyes: "I have my own considerations on this matter. You don't need to ask any more questions."

When Bai Chenye heard the emperor's indifferent answer, the grievance and anger in his heart instantly burst out. He could no longer control his emotions and shouted, "Why do you favor him in everything when he comes back? Father, I am also your son! From childhood to adulthood, no matter how hard I try, I am not as good as my third brother in your eyes! Now you even want to take away my engagement and give it to my third brother. Do you really regard me as your son?" Bai Chenye's face turned red, veins bulged on his forehead, and his fists were clenched tightly.

After hearing Bai Chenye's words, the emperor's face darkened. He slammed the table and shouted, "How dare you! Is that how you talk to me? I will weigh the matter of the Third Prince myself. It is not your turn to question me. Don't you know how you got your engagement? Go back and reflect on this!"

Bai Chenye's eyes widened with anger as he roared desperately, "In my father's eyes, I will never be able to compare to this piece of trash!"

After hearing what he said, the emperor stood up angrily and pointed at Bai Chenye's nose and cursed:

"How did you get your spiritual roots? Do you think I know nothing? Do you think your actions over the years can escape my eyes? If it weren't for your mother's love, if you were not her child, I would have abolished you without hesitation!"

The emperor's chest heaved violently, his eyes filled with disappointment and anger.

Bai Chenye's face turned pale when he heard the emperor's words. He had never thought that his secret had already been known by the emperor. But he still stood there stubbornly, refusing to bow his head.

"The fourth prince will be named Prince Ye, and his fiefdom will be Zongcheng." The emperor suppressed his anger and gave the order coldly.

Bai Chenye showed a sad smile on his face, which was filled with endless despair and self-mockery. He said slowly:

"Your son accepts the order." He straightened his back, turned around, and strode out of the imperial study. His resolute figure seemed to sever all the past.

In the imperial study, only the emperor was left standing there, his face so gloomy that it seemed as if water could drip out of it.

He looked at the direction where Bai Chenye left, feeling mixed emotions.

On the other side, after hearing the news, Bai Jin couldn't help but shook his head and said to himself:

"Is Bai Chenye so desperate that he's acting so impulsively and not striving for the position of Crown Prince? I still want to be crowned a prince. I've hinted at it many times, but the old man just pretends not to see it. I don't know what he's planning."

"Oh, I originally thought that after returning to the capital, I could just ignore everything and do whatever I want. Well, now I have done whatever I want, but I'm being controlled by the old man all day long. I'm not allowed to do this or that. I'm not happy!" Bai Jin supported his chin with his hand and muttered to himself in boredom, with a hint of annoyance on his face.
