Recently, rumors on the Nine Heavens have been non-stop. Bai Fengjiu, curious, inquired and learned from Si Ming that Emperor Donghua was fostering female immortals, and even more, a female immortal had once bathed in a hot spring with the Emperor and possibly gave birth to an illegitimate daughter, Cheng Yu. Bai Fengjiu felt both awkward and amused. Now that things were sensitive, she needed to be discreet and careful to retrieve the jade bracelet and hairpin.
Cheng Yu specifically came to inform her that Emperor Donghua, being in charge of the register of immortals, would receive obeisance at Qingyun Hall every year on the fifth day of the fifth lunar month and bestow ranks upon the immortals. Bai Fengjiu had a slight plan in mind. First, she staked out the area outside Qingyun Hall to figure things out.
After finally shaking off A Li, she cleverly used her acting skills to successfully fool the guards and enter the hall to state her purpose. Unexpectedly, this attracted the immortals who had not yet left on both sides, who rushed to watch. Bai Fengjiu immediately felt she had lost face. Forcing herself to stay calm, she pretended to sleepwalk. Seeing this, Emperor Donghua didn't hesitate to expose her again. Slowly and deliberately, he took out the jade bracelet and hairpin.
Just as he was about to return them, she hastily interrupted him and earnestly took her leave. Some time after she left the hall, Emperor Donghua quietly returned. He then sat at a table in the courtyard, studying and admiring the Haotian Tower. Lian Song heard the news and came to inquire, frankly stating that Emperor Donghua had cultivated himself over the past few years, his killing aura had diminished, making him appear quite indifferent.
Emperor Donghua made no comment, resting his chin on his hand and looking into the distance. His gaze happened to fall upon Bai Fengjiu, who had gone to a banquet with Bai Zhen. Zhihe was intelligent and practiced her dancing skills diligently. Immediately after, under the Hevenly King's arrangement, she performed at the banquet and was granted pardon to return to her palace. Bai Fengjiu and Bai Zhen saw through her performance.
The two cooperated, with hidden meanings in their words, which angered Zhihe but also gained the admiration of the crowd. Finally, the Hevenly King, citing the strict laws of the Nine Heavens, temporarily postponed the arrangements. Emperor Donghua publicly announced that he would fight the battle in place of Zhihe. To outsiders, this appeared even more like deep sibling affection, and naturally, no one dared to object further.
Bai Fengjiu remained silent upon hearing this, burying her head in her drink. She did not leave until the immortals dispersed, sitting in the same spot completely drunk, pulling Emperor Donghua over to complain and pour out her grievances. Early the next morning, Bai Fengjiu woke up in Qingyun Hall and found Emperor Donghua's outer robe covering her. Her memories were jumbled. She specially asked her uncle for the reason.
Bai Zhen truthfully recounted that after Emperor Donghua sent Bai Fengjiu back, since it was inconvenient for him to stay overnight in Qingyun Hall but she had no clothes to wear, A Li immediately went to Xihe Palace to borrow clothes. As his parents were deeply asleep, he could only shout loudly in the courtyard, causing the entire palace to hear.
Bai Fengjiu was relieved for a moment, but unexpectedly, A Li only focused on the key points, recounting Bai Fengjiu's embarrassing state and the matter of Emperor Donghua sending her back to the palace. This left Bai Fengjiu completely stunned on the spot, speechless. Originally, Bai Yi had ordered Bai Fengjiu to stay in the Heavenly Palace for over a month, ostensibly showing the thoughtfulness of her maternal family, but privately letting Bai Qian look after her niece's romantic fortunes.
He thought that this way, Bai Fengjiu would meet more talented young men and broaden her chances for marriage. However, now that the month was almost up, Bai Fengjiu's romantic fortune was still as dead as dust. She hadn't gained many in-laws, but had accumulated two outer robes. Bai Fengjiu calculated with her fingers that she should return to Qingqiu in three days.
Feeling that she shouldn't waste time, she simply climbed the wall and threw the bundle containing the outer robes in front of Emperor Donghua. Afterwards, she took A Li everywhere to wander around. Zhihe maliciously blocked their way, warning Bai Fengjiu not to harbor unrealistic fantasies about Emperor Donghua. Bai Fengjiu was already feeling frustrated. Thinking of past events, she shoved her back, making her fall to the ground and get stained with bird droppings.
Elsewhere in the garden, many people were gathered. Bai Fengjiu couldn't hide her curiosity. She instructed A Li to disguise himself and investigate, while she hid under a sinking wood tree to cool off and wait. This tree was located by the pond, sturdy and lush, already ten thousand years old. Normally, no one came and went there, as everyone knew it had become Emperor Donghua's resting place.
As luck would have it, today Emperor Donghua was sitting slightly reclined on a couch behind the rockery, his eyes closed, and heard A Li discover that the immortals were placing bets on the candidate for Empress. Upon learning that she was considered less likely than Zhihe, Bai Fengjiu voluntarily took out her money pouch and had A Li place a bet. Emperor Donghua found this very amusing.
He got up and looked, only to hear Bai Fengjiu calling herself a pervert. After the siblings left, Lian Song appeared and sighed with a smile. However, his skill was insufficient, and he was again mocked by Emperor Donghua. Bai Fengjiu was waiting with A Li in the pavilion. Seeing Emperor Donghua and Lian Song walking over while chatting, she panicked and hid inside a handkerchief. Emperor Donghua had already seen through her and deliberately took the handkerchief away. Lian Song realized what was happening and left without revealing it, leaving A Li feeling quite disheartened.
