After traveling through time, the adults were completely in my hands

At night, in the imperial study of the Yue Kingdom Palace, Jing Yu finally finished reviewing a thick stack of memorials. He put down his pen and rubbed his forehead slightly tiredly.

At the door, a eunuch came in carrying tea. After placing the tea tray on the table, the eunuch walked to the side and stood with his hands hanging down. Seeing Jing Yu's exhausted appearance, he spoke cautiously, "Your Highness, Miss Jindou is performing a little magic trick in the Empress's palace. I heard it's very interesting. Why don't you go and see it?"

"Oh, a little magic trick?" Jing Yu was reminded of the time when Jindou turned him into a sunflower. He couldn't sit still anymore and stood up and said, "Let's go and take a look."

The Empress's inner palace was ablaze with candlelight. Emperor Wu Ren, the Empress, and Princess Jing'an were all sitting in the courtyard, flanked by a cluster of palace maids and eunuchs.

At this time, Jindou stretched out one hand and covered his palm with a handkerchief with the other.

"One, two, three" After counting three numbers, Jindou lifted the handkerchief, and a bright red rose appeared in his hand.

"Ah!" The Queen Mother and Princess Jing'an both cried out softly, and the palace maids and eunuchs standing beside them all widened their eyes.

With a smile, Jindou covered the rose with the handkerchief again, stretched out his finger and counted: "One, two, three". As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly lifted the handkerchief. The rose in his hand had turned into a big red apple.

"This...how did this happen? This is too magical!" The Queen said in disbelief.

Jindou glanced around with a smile, and when he saw Crown Prince Jingyu coming towards him, he threw the apple in his hand towards him and shouted, "Your Highness, catch it."

As soon as Jing Yu entered the central palace, he began to look for Jindou. After seeing Jindou in the crowd, he strode towards him. Before he got close, he saw Jindou throwing something towards him and shouting for him to catch it.

Jing Yu subconsciously stretched out his hand and took the thing steadily in his hand. When he looked closely, he found that it was a big apple.

"Your Highness the Crown Prince" When the palace maids and eunuchs in the yard saw the Crown Prince coming, they immediately knelt down, and Princess Jing'an also hurriedly stood up from her chair.

"Everyone, stand up," Jing Yu waved his hand, then looked at Princess Jing'an and said, "Crown Princess, please sit down too."

After seeing Princess Jing'an sitting down, Jing Yu bowed and called out to Emperor Wu Ren and the Empress, "Father, Mother."

"Prince, please sit down and watch together. Jindou's little magic trick is really interesting," Emperor Wu Ren said to Jing Yu with a laugh.

"Yes, my son, please sit down and watch with us. The magic trick of the golden beans is simply amazing," the Queen said to Jing Yu with a smile.

Jing Yu looked down at the apple in his hand, then looked up at Jindou, only to meet Jindou's smiling eyes.

"Your Highness, come here and cooperate with me." Jindou walked over with a smile, pulled Jingyu to his side, and took out a fan from his arms.

With a "swish" sound, he opened the fan and covered the apple in Jingyu's hand. Jindou said to Jingyu with a smile, "Your Highness, blow on it."

What else could this possibly become? Jing Yu thought to himself, blowing gently on the fan.

"One, two, three" Jindou folded the fan suddenly.

"Ah!" Everyone in the yard couldn't help but exclaimed together.

The apple in Jing Yu's hand turned into a round bead. The bead was shining with white light and its surface was colorful. It emitted a charming glow in the night.

"This..." Jing Yu looked at the bead in his hand in disbelief. He really couldn't understand how it appeared.

With a slight smile, Jindou took the bead from Jingyu's hand, placed it in his palm, and then began to mutter something. After a while, the bead slowly rose from Jindou's hand.

The bead rose higher and higher, and suddenly began to spin in mid-air, its surface shining with brilliant light, just like the bright moon in the sky, dazzling and brilliant.

Pointing at the beads in the air, Jindou said, "Open!"

There was a "bang" sound, and the beads exploded in mid-air. The colorful light instantly illuminated the entire night sky.

Everyone in the yard looked up at the night sky together, and for a moment they were all shocked by the dreamlike brilliant colors. The crowd was silent, as if time had stood still.

After a long while, the Queen could not help but murmur to herself, "Oh my God, this is too beautiful."

Jing Yu looked up for a while, then lowered his head and slowly moved his gaze to Jindou's face. He saw Jindou looking up at the sky with a bright smile on his face.

In the night sky, brilliant light cast a colorful halo on Jindou's face, like a dream. For a moment, Jingyu had an unreal thought. He felt that Jindou was a fairy in the sky, and now she was just passing through the human world occasionally.

Just as Jing Yu was gazing at the golden beans in ecstasy, Princess Jing'an also withdrew her gaze from the sky. She looked at the golden beans, then looked at Jing Yu who was staring at the golden beans intently, and a trace of bitterness slowly crept into her heart.

At night, in the Empress's bedroom, Nanny Li thought about what had just happened. She was still a little unsatisfied and couldn't help but say, "Your Majesty, do you think that Miss Jindou is a fairy who has descended to earth? Otherwise, how could she have such a talent?"

"Yes, I think so too," the Queen nodded and said, "Jindou is a very capable child."

"However, Your Majesty, have you noticed that tonight, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's eyes have been on Miss Jindou," Nanny Li reminded the Queen.

"Of course I have seen it. Alas, I am afraid that my prince is now unable to extricate himself." The Queen couldn't help but sigh.

"I think it would be better for Your Majesty to test Miss Jindou when she talks to her to see whether Miss Jindou has His Royal Highness the Crown Prince in her heart, so that we can make plans for the next step," suggested Li Ma.

"Okay." The Queen thought for a while and nodded.

In the bedroom of the Eastern Palace, Princess Jing'an was lying on the bed alone, with the scene just now constantly flashing in her mind.

Now, her intuition told her that the prince liked gold beans, and liked them very much.

But what should I do now? I have already come here as a bride and cannot go back to Daqing.

She knew that as the princess of Daqing and the prince's legitimate wife, her position as the crown princess was unchallengeable. But so what? Would she have to stay alone in her empty room every night for the rest of her life?
