Oops, the princess is surrounded by the male protagonists

"That's great, Xiaoyue, I finally get to see you. Did you know that my eldest brother has been acting like a madman these past few days, not letting me rest at all?"

"Every day when I open my eyes, I see official documents. When I close my eyes, I see official documents. If this case hadn't finally been closed, I'd probably be dead!"

Still at the tea stall in Nanshi, Yun Qingchi cried to Bai Yue with a look of begging for comfort.

"Isn't it just a few days of overtime? Is it necessary to be so desperate? And how dare you call me by my name? Have you forgotten that I am your sister-in-law?"

"Oh, well, you want to divorce my second brother, don't you? In order to support you, I will change my address first, right?"

"Well, what you said makes a lot of sense. I can't even refute it!"

Bai Yue nodded, obviously agreeing with the other party's excuse.

"Ah? Fairy Lady, are you still going to divorce the prince? I heard that a few days ago, just to make you laugh, the prince turned the East Market upside down. The scene was even more lively than the New Year!"

"Back when Princess Bai Ling was Prince Cheng's wife, she never enjoyed such an honor! I think the prince's heart is completely devoted to you!"

"Humph, it's just a few things, but you're talking about it like it's a great favor. If Xiaoyue likes it, I can give it all to her without blinking an eye!"

"Ah? His Highness Prince Cheng's gift to Lady Fairy is a sign of deep affection between husband and wife. What does your gift to Lady Fairy mean? Is it a sign of deep affection between uncle and sister-in-law?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Shen Qianyu looked at him with a puzzled expression.

"Alright, alright, stop messing around, Qing Chi, I called you here because I have something serious to discuss!"

Bai Yue quickly stopped the other person's hand from poking Shen Qianyu's belly and asked seriously.

"You're looking for a suitable house for an orphanage, right? Don't worry, I've been keeping an eye out for you lately. After my careful research, I've found that there's probably one in the capital..."

"Okay, one is fine. Tell me where it is and I'll go check it out!"

When Bai Yue heard that there was a suitable one, she quickly spoke up.

"I mean, if there was one, you should be laughing, but the problem is, there isn't one!"

As soon as Yun Qingchi saw the other party raise his fist, he quickly continued speaking.

"There's no such place in the capital, but there's a suitable house in the suburbs. It used to be a school, so it's definitely suitable for the orphanage you want to open!"

"Academy in the suburbs? Your Highness, are you referring to the legendary Yuelu Academy? There are ghosts haunting that place. Are you really planning to recommend this place to the Fairy Lady?"

"Haunted by a ghost? What does that mean?"

Bai Yue stared at Xie Lingyun with curiosity and asked.

"This matter can be traced back to the Rebellion of the Seven Kings more than 20 years ago!"

Without waiting for Xie Lingyun to elaborate, Wu Qiming could no longer hold back and spoke first.

"The late emperor was quite wise and powerful back then, but he had one flaw: he loved beauty too much. With so many concubines in the palace, princes naturally popped up like mushrooms after rain. At that time, there were as many as nine princes recorded in the annals!"

"But there's only one emperor, and the seven previous princes fought tooth and nail for it. The court was also in turmoil, with no peace."

"The dean of Yuelu Academy is none other than the former prime minister Yue Chengbai. He is a man of integrity and upright character, and naturally does not want to be involved in any of the princes' struggles for the throne. Therefore, his upright character naturally became the target of public criticism."

Yun Qingchi took over the conversation at the right time and continued to tell the story.

"At the time, someone falsely accused him of plotting rebellion and even seized dozens of weapons from Yuelu Academy. The Emperor fell ill again at that time, so the Crown Prince took the opportunity to execute Prime Minister Yue's entire family and all the students at Yunlu Academy on charges of 'high treason'!"

"Crown Prince? Is that the current Majesty?"

"My Lady Fairy, you have a huge misunderstanding! Our current emperor is the Eighth Prince back then. He had no involvement in the chaotic Rebellion of the Seven Kings!"

Shen Qianyu quickly waved her hands, fearing that Bai Yue would harbor some rebellious thoughts.

"Yes, it was thanks to His Majesty and His Royal Highness Prince Wu that they joined forces to put down the Rebellion of the Seven Kings in one fell swoop, which is why Wenqu is now in a peaceful and prosperous era!"

Wu Qiming glanced secretly at Yun Qingchi and spoke with respect.

"Haha, don't act like it has nothing to do with your fathers. Back then, my father and His Majesty killed seven princes outside the Suzaku Gate, and their families were probably killed by the Dukes!"

"Your Majesty is a true dragon descended from the earth, blessed with both good fortune and longevity. Even if he killed his own brothers, it would not have any impact. Unlike my father, who had little good fortune, he passed away a few years after that incident."

Yun Qingchi had a faint smile on his face, as if he was telling a story that had nothing to do with him.

"Ever since then, Prime Minister Yue's residence and the academy have been shrouded in an inexplicable eerie atmosphere. Everyone who enters claims to hear the sobbing of wronged souls. Although His Majesty later exonerated them, no one dares to use these two places anymore, and they remain deserted to this day!"

"How about this, Xiaoyue? If you dare to use this haunted academy, I can report it to the court and sell it to you at a very low price! I can also give you Prime Minister Yue's residence as a gift. It depends on whether you have the courage and boldness to do so!"

"Well, after hearing what you said, I'm really curious. Tell me, where is Yuelu Academy? I'll go see if it meets my requirements!"

After thinking for a moment, Bai Yue smiled and said to Yun Qingchi.

"No way, Fairy Lady, don't be impulsive! That place is full of evil spirits with lingering souls and resentful spirits! I heard that after they bewitch people's minds, they will eat their hearts alive!"

When Shen Qianyu heard that Bai Yue was interested, she immediately tried to dissuade him. However, the other party was not afraid at all, but smiled even more brightly.

"Oh? Eating human hearts raw, who said that?"

"Oh, those unlucky ones who encountered ghosts in there! They said that after staying in there for a while, the world started spinning around, and then they encountered the most terrifying thing in their lives!"

Wu Qiming spoke seriously, as if he was the person involved!

"Oh? If it's so terrifying, how did they escape unscathed? Why weren't they ripped open by those evil spirits?"

"Perhaps the evil spirits were in a bad mood that day, or perhaps those people's hearts were too hard and not to their liking?"

Shen Qianyu smacked her lips and said, obviously thinking of some delicious food.

"Remember, there are no ghosts in this world. Even if there are, they are just people pretending to be ghosts!"

"Alright, tell me the address now! I want to see with my own eyes what's going on in this so-called 'haunted house'!"
