It was still like a dream even after Bai Renshu's funeral the day after the man died. It might be more accurately called a nightmare, but Bai Chen tried to look at the situation from a positive perspective.
'Bai Renshu is no longer in the world, so I have no rival for the throne from the Emperor, and that should be a good thing for me, right?' Bai Chen tried to think positively after the funeral was over.
Everyone in the Imperial Palace wore white clothes without a pattern during the funeral, and those clothes looked duller than the white clothes that people in the palace usually wore.
Bai Chen also had to wear those clothes, and the Emperor even announced that the people in the Imperial Palace would have to mourn for Bai Renshu for three days before they could put on their normal clothes.
