The devil relies on the cat

Chapter 112

"The palace sent some fruit. They said it was a tribute from outsiders. They are yellow and sweet." Bai Jiujiu was holding a plate of bright mangoes, and shouted into the crack of the door while swallowing.

"Don't eat, I'm not interested."

"Try it. I guarantee you haven't eaten it!" Seeing that there is no trace of fat on his face, it is obvious that he has not eaten much on weekdays.Alas, there is indeed nothing to eat on the battlefield.Being a general is really hard.

"I told you not to eat, why are you still talking endlessly!"

"But this fruit is very..." Bai Jiujiu still didn't give up.

Duanmu saw what the old man Jiang taught, to pester him, he must pester him until his heart softens.

The room suddenly burst out: "Get out, get out!"

The unexpected roar extremely exceeded Bai Jiujiu's ability to withstand pressure.Immediately, the old man forgot how much he had taught him, and his mouth shrunk, and he burst into tears on the spot.

In fact, it was more because she was sad.

"It's okay for Xia Jinchai to be vicious, but why are you Duanmuling so bad and bullying me like this!"

While crying, while cursing unwillingly.And the plate of mangoes that made her drool just now was thrown to the ground by her, running over her feet from time to time.

Immediately, Duanmu Ling's hand that touched the doorknob stopped in the air.Xia Jinchai... Duanmu Ling... So in her mind, she has always compared the two of them in this way.

With a pain in my heart, I turned around.

Seeing Bai Jiujiu returning back in embarrassment with a sad face, Duanmu saw Jiang immediately stepped forward to cheer him up.

"Jiujiu, if you really think that our Ling'er is good, you must work hard! Grandpa supports you! Akun, including everyone in the house, will support you together!"

"That's right, Miss Bai, the general has been like this since he was a child. You don't have to be sad about it. If you fail once, we can do it twice. If you fail twice, we can do it three times! In short, as long as the general is in the mansion every day, we will have one more day." Chance!"

"But what if he is transferred back to the frontier by the emperor before he understands?" Bai Jiujiu didn't care about being shy, and cried out her concerns in front of Duanmu Jianjiang and Akun.

Just because the war between the two worlds of demons and gods is about to break out, she really can't afford it!

"Don't cry or cry, Grandpa can assure you of this. Within six months, I will never allow him to go to war! I will never allow him to take half a step outside the capital!" Duanmu Jianjiang was also in a hurry. The granddaughter-in-law who came here, how can she lose it because her grandson is not enlightened for a while.

"But……"

Before Bai Jiujiu could ask her questions, Duanmu saw Jiang pushing the wheelchair and drove out.As he walked, he said, "I'm going to talk to the emperor right now! I don't believe that he has the nerve to let our Duanmu family have no sons or grandchildren!"

After speaking, Bai Jiujiu was so embarrassed that she cried.This old man is too straightforward.

The reason why Qinghong Kingdom can stand up to this day and is admired by the Quartet is largely due to the Duanmu family.Now, the Duanmu family resigned for half a year for the sake of their heirs, how could Emperor Qinghong say "no".

Therefore, this day and night living together in the same room, all kinds of artificially created opportunities to look up and down, really make it difficult for Duanmuling to resist.

So, more times of struggle, more times of weighing up and down, whether he, Duanmu Ling should make Xia Jinchai feel hostile towards him because of a woman.

In Qinghong Country, everyone is calm on the surface.But secretly, it has long been divided into two factions or even multiple factions.And as the person in charge of the military force, he is still only loyal to the old emperor.It is precisely because of this that there have been no disputes between the princes of those factions.

It would be too bad if mistakes were made just because of this little personal matter, causing them who were just about to make a move to wait for an opportunity to mess up.

On this day, Duanmu Ling was suffering from the laughter of the old and the young at the dinner table, when suddenly there were pleading obstructions from outside the door.

"My lord, my lord Chai, please introduce the younger one to report."

"What a fart! This king has already seen the person he is looking for! Even if I lend you a hundred hands, you won't have time to hide it!"

As soon as the words fell, there was a "pop", and the guard who had chased him but failed to stop him just now was thrown to the dining table abruptly by him.

Now, Bai Jiujiu was in the mood to pretend not to know each other.The little heart trembled because of nervousness and fear, and couldn't even hold the chopsticks steadily.

She knew that Xia Jinchai was so furious because of her sneaking away.

Duanmu Ling's eyes became darker and darker.However, he squeezed out a still stiff smile.Just as he was about to stand up and salute, Duanmu Jianjiang at the side spoke first.

"Prince Chai! I don't know that Prince Chai is here, and I am far away from welcoming him. I hope the prince will not blame him."

"The old general laughed." Xia Jinchai said politely, but his sharp eyes kept scanning the two people at the table.

Bai Jiujiu and Duanmu Ling, when did these two get so close, they sat down and ate together!

"It's better to come early than to come early. I wonder if the lord Qiantui has eaten?" Duanmu Jianjiang turned a blind eye to Xia Jinchai's dissatisfaction, and greeted him to take a seat.

Xia Jinchai was not too polite, and sat down at the seat opposite Duanmuling: "Well, since the old general has this intention, then the king will be disrespectful!"

Bai Jiujiu screamed inwardly.Wherever there is Xia Jinchai, how would she have the guts to eat.I'm afraid that what I ate just now, I don't feel indigestion from being glared at by him.

Duanmu Ling also felt that the atmosphere was unusually bad.He expected that there would be a day of confrontation, but he didn't expect that it would be like this as soon as they met.It seemed that Xia Jinchai's reaction was much bigger than what he had expected.The pressure in my heart couldn't help but sink.

Seeing that Duanmuling never left that position, Xia Jinchai felt even more angry.

"Why, General Duanmu doesn't want to offer a toast to the King?"

Duanmuling who was called stood up, holding a wine glass in one hand and a jug in the other, trying to walk around the round table.

"The general is hesitating, the prince rarely comes to the mansion, what kind of wine should he entertain the prince?"

Xia Jinchai sneered suddenly: "Then what kind of wine are you serving now?"

"I remembered that the prince fell in love with Yiyixian a few days ago, and it just so happens that the last general still has some here."

"Remember? Didn't I hear?" Xia Jinchai deliberately glanced at Bai Jiujiu.

"Yes, I heard Miss Jiujiu talk about the last general." Duanmuling smiled wryly.I haven't made up my mind yet, you prince just started a crusade like this.If you really decided to keep Bai Jiujiu, wouldn't you kill me like a nail?

"Jiujiu?" Xia Jinchai deliberately prolonged his voice, imitating Duanmu Ling's address to Bai Jiujiu, with contempt in his eyes, "When will this king's servant girl be the guest of the general's mansion?"
