Chapter 645 Misunderstanding the Queen Mother
That's great.

The Queen Mother glanced at Princess Yun'an beside her, and saw Princess Yun'an raising her head and quickly glancing at Bai Panmei, then lowering her head. The silhouette under the light was full of shyness and surprise.

The Queen Mother knew what was going on.

"You have been in the capital for so long, but which girl have you fallen in love with?" the Queen Mother asked directly.

Bai Panmei was sweating and didn't know how to reply. This was too direct.

He came to the capital to pursue his ideals and ambitions. Before that, he had never thought about his life-long events, let alone which girl he fell in love with.

Bai Panmei wondered why the Queen Mother asked him about his marriage status as soon as they met.

Could it be that the Queen Mother wanted to use him as a matchmaker for a noble lady in the capital?
When it comes to noble ladies in the capital, Bai Panmei is cast into a shadow.

Years ago, she was targeted by Fan Lingyi, the eldest daughter of the Fan family, for seeking justice for a charcoal seller on the street.

Bai Panmei thought that Fan Lingyi would target him and cause some setbacks in his journey to the imperial examination, but she never expected that Miss Fan would take a fancy to him, and would send veils to him and block him.

He even came up with the stupid idea of ​​bribed the examiner to get the test questions.

Bai Panmei became depressed when she thought of all the things Fan Lingyi had done to him.

Fortunately, Fan Lingyi was grounded before the examination, otherwise he was really worried that when he was parading on horseback, Fan Lingyi would lead someone to catch his son-in-law and take him away.

Not only did Bai Panmei know that Fan Lingyi was the half-sister of her third sister-in-law, she also found out that Mrs. Fan was her mother's cousin during these days in Beijing.

In other words, the eldest lady of the Fan family is the grand-niece of the Queen Mother.

Therefore, Bai Panmei's first thought was that the Queen Mother wanted to use him as a matchmaker for Fan Lingyi.

Even if this was the case, he would not want this marriage even if he resigned from his newly acquired position as Hanlin editor.

Not to mention that he didn't like the domineering Fan Lingyi at all. From an official career perspective, he didn't want to have anything to do with the Fan family of the prime minister's office.

When Fan Shijie went to war with Xia and Rong two years ago, he strongly advocated for peace and even suggested ceding Ning City and sending the princess for marriage as a diplomatic act for a weak country.

Even if he is a powerful official in the court, Bai Panmei, a newly released little editor, must draw a clear line with him.

The so-called different ways do not conspire with each other.

The Queen Mother naturally didn't know Bai Panmei's psychological activities, and thought Bai Panmei was shy because she was silent.

It's normal for a new top scholar to be shy when it comes to marriage and love issues. After all, all his energy is spent on studying. How can he not be shy when someone suddenly asks him about life-long matters?

"If you fall in love with any girl, the Ai family will make the decision for you." The queen mother said, her kind-hearted look was just like the old lady Bai who cared about her grandson's marriage.

Bai Panmei thought for a while, then stood up and said: "Back to the Queen Mother, I am devoted to studying and have not paid attention to any girls. I would like to thank the Queen Mother for her concern. However, my parents still need to make decisions about my marriage, as well as my sister's thoughts."

Bai Panmei was worried that if she didn't speak anymore, the Queen Mother would grant her a marriage next step.

God, the Bai family can't accommodate a giant Buddha like Fan Lingyi.

Just reject it immediately before talking about anything else.

As soon as these words came out, the eyes of Princess Yun'an, who was sitting next to the Queen Mother, darkened.

Could it be that she had misunderstood the meaning of the new champion? Just now he raised his head by the turret and was purely attracted by the noise upstairs. He was not looking at her at all.

Princess Yun'an felt a sharp pain in her heart.

The veil in my hand is about to be crushed.

I can understand the parents' decision to get married, but they still need my sister's consent. The Bai family is really...

But the Queen Mother thought of the little girl of the Bai family mentioned by Mrs. Zhongjing Houfu, who spoke so well that the whole family believed her words, and understood what Bai Panmei said.

"The Ai family just mentioned it. Don't worry, you and your parents will ultimately have to decide on your marriage." The Queen Mother nodded and added, "Of course you have to listen to your sister's words."

The more she looked at Bai Panmei and Princess Yun'an, the more they looked like a perfect couple.

There's no rush.She would mention this matter to Fu'er again when Fu'er arrived in the capital.

There is also the Furong village head of the Bai family, who must be very compatible with Princess Yun'an.

Anyway, with Bai Panmei, the newly minted champion, and her intervention as the Queen Mother, those courtiers gave up their thoughts on integrating him into the family.

Not even Fan Lingyi.

The Queen Mother had no unsuitable options for Bai Panmei and Princess Yun'an.

"Your Majesty, please forgive me for being presumptuous. Do you want me to make a couple with Miss Fan? If so, I cannot agree to this." Bai Panmei gritted her teeth and expressed her inner thoughts.

If it's Fan Lingyi, I'm sorry, it's not appropriate.

Bai Panmei didn't even say tactful things like Qi Dafeiqiu. In short, she just didn't like it and didn't agree with it.

Even if it offends the Queen Mother, he will refuse.

Princess Yun'an was stunned, and then she felt ecstatic.

It turned out that it was Princess Fan who was rejected by the new top scholar.

An unexpected expression appeared on the Queen Mother's face, and then she returned to normal.

I couldn't help but laugh in my heart. The child had misunderstood what he meant and thought he was trying to draw a red line between him and Fan Lingyi.

Does the Fan family deserve it?
The Queen Mother thought disdainfully that even though Fu'er fell from the eldest daughter of the Zhen Mansion to a village woman, the Fan Mansion was the Prime Minister's Mansion, and she was not worthy of being Fu'er's in-laws.

The Queen Mother nodded. After all, the new top scholar was just starting out. He could not hold back his composure and expressed his thoughts directly.But she admired his youthful spirit and backbone.

"Fourth brother, are you worried that the Ai family will promise Fan Lingyi to you? The Ai family has never had such an idea. Not only did they not have such an idea, they punished Fan Lingyi." The queen mother said gently.

"This junior misunderstood you."

Only then did Bai Panmei realize that she had misunderstood the Queen Mother. She blushed with shame and was about to apologize to the Queen Mother, but was stopped by the Queen Mother with a wave of her hand.

"We can wait until your mother comes to Beijing to make plans for your marriage. It's getting late. Fourth brother has been tired for the whole day. Go back and rest. I heard that third brother has arrived in the capital. In a few days, you two brothers will come together to accompany the Ai family. Speak." The Queen Mother knew that Bai Panmei could not stay in the palace for a long time, so she asked him to go back temporarily.

Bai Panmei said yes.

"Yao Yao, you send off the fourth brother for the Ai family." The Queen Mother said to Princess Yun'an.

Princess Yun'an stood up and escorted Bai Panmei out of the palace.

The evening breeze blew softly, and there was no communication between the two except for the slight sound of wind.

"Princess, please stay." After leaving the door of Yuqing Palace, Bai Panmei said to Princess Yun'an.

He couldn't let Princess Yun'an send him outside the gate, that would be too disrespectful.

The two looked at each other, and Princess Yun'an's heartbeat seemed to skip a beat.

"I never had a chance to thank the princess for the dumplings she gave me on New Year's Eve." Bai Panmei smiled at Princess Yun'an.

"It's not worth anything, you're welcome." Princess Yun'an felt her cheeks get hot under Bai Panmei's dazzling smile.

The two hurriedly said goodbye at the entrance of Yuqing Palace.

The heartbeat of Bai Panmei, the new champion, stopped until she left the palace gate.

After all, it was the No. [-] Scholar's brain. He understood it when the Queen Mother asked Princess Yun'an to send him out of the palace. The Queen Mother was here to protect him and Princess Yun'an.

He liked Princess Yun'an very much, but he didn't know if the princess liked her.

He stamped his feet. He had only known that he mustered up the courage to ask her, but he was afraid of offending her.
