The devil relies on the cat

Chapter 135

"Jiujiu, you must have been bored in the palace for too long, that's why you are so lethargic. Go out and relax, everything will be fine once you come back."

On this day, Xia Jinchai had not been out for a long time, and Granny Zhu, who came to chat with Bai Jiujiu, persuaded her to drive her out of the palace to get some air.

"But..." After leaving this palace, it seemed that he had nowhere to go.

Bai Jiujiu felt that she was even more powerless and helpless now than when she first came here.In the past, I had at least one younger brother.Every time something important happens, the younger brother will always arrive in time.And the always expressionless General Duanmu will always appear with his junior due to various coincidences.

But what about now?An accident happened in the junior brother's house, and it was the most absurd and most despised incident of gathering a crowd for adultery.As for Duanmu Ling, although he was still in good condition and had a good life, because of his flaws in some aspects, he no longer had the face to face them.

no face...

Bai Jiujiu, who was forced out of Prince Chai's mansion by Granny Zhu, just kept her head down and walked aimlessly all the way.Where she goes, she doesn't care.It's the same everywhere, isn't it?

Walk through the bustling street market and walk through the narrow paths.Sometimes slate, sometimes pebbles.The stones at my feet kicked one after another.

Finally, due to a passerby's "Ouch", Bai Jiujiu raised her head "I'm sorry".

"Hey, aren't you Miss Bai? Why are you wandering alone on the road so early in the morning?" The woman looked at Bai Jiujiu curiously while rubbing her ankle that hurt from being kicked.

"I..." Bai Jiujiu, who was full of shame, was immediately overwhelmed by the sudden question from a familiar face.

Well, this Yuanhua is smart, and she has always been kind to herself.It's better to be honest.

"I'm not in a good mood recently, so I went out for a walk to relax."

Unexpectedly, Yuanhua laughed "puchi" without the slightest sympathy.

"What a coincidence, our general has been very irritable recently. The difference is that you are walking listlessly on the street, while the general is walking back and forth in the study."

Bai Jiujiu's face was full of doubts, not waiting for her to express her indignation that as a maid, she dared to gloat at her master's misfortune.As soon as the arm tightened, Yuanhua pulled her away to a certain place.

After walking a few steps, Bai Jiujiu looked up, only to realize that he had arrived at the gate of General Duanmu's mansion!
Hey, hey, I have no face to enter this place!
Bai Jiujiu shouted from the bottom of her heart, stopping it.But the body still walked in with the smiling Yuanhua.

He had just entered the gate of the mansion, and before he could turn around, he ran into Duanmu Jianjiang who was directing people to move bonsai in the courtyard.

"Ah, Akun, look, the girl who followed Yuanhua into the door is Jiujiu girl?"

"Back to the old lady, it is indeed Miss Bai!" Akun looked carefully, and then he couldn't hide his excitement and replied to Duanmu Jianjiang.

Seeing that Jiang didn't care about the bonsai anymore, Duanmu waved his hand and ordered: "Quick, push me over!"

Then, no matter how far away it was, he greeted Bai Jiujiu loudly: "Girl, I'm looking forward to you!"

The straightforward words made all the servants around them cover their mouths and start laughing.

Seeing Bai Jiujiu's blushing face, Yuanhua still didn't forget to join in the fun: "The old man can get so excited when he sees a girl, and the general will be so excited when he sees a girl later!"

Immediately, the servants at the gate of the courtyard who couldn't stop looking at Bai Jiujiu had even wider smiles on their faces.

When Bai Jiujiu walked up to Duanmu Jianjiang, Duanmu Jianjiang immediately pulled her back without saluting.

"Jiujiu, my good girl, you are here. Let's go to the study with the old man to find that silly boy!"

"Ah? What's the matter?" Looking at the hurried appearance of the old man Duanmu, it seemed as if he had been waiting for himself for a long time.Could it be that there is something urgent that needs my help?

Bai Jiujiu couldn't help worrying about Duanmuling.But, what can I do to help him?

Because everyone is more anxious, the road under their feet is going faster.After a while, he came to Duanmu Ling's study.

Duanmu Ling's study room is very large, but with few furnishings, it looks a bit empty at first glance.But such a spacious place is still not enough for him to walk back and forth.He didn't even get the slightest clue about the matter, he didn't know how many times he went back and forth.

"Ling'er, look, who's here!" Duanmu reminded his grandson with great joy when he saw Jiang Chao.

Duanmuling looked back distractedly, and saw that it was Bai Jiujiu, but his face changed again and again.First was the surprise that couldn't be concealed, then the loss, and then the helplessness.

"Grandpa, I told you that I can't bother other people anymore, why are you doing this!"

"What bother! The old man didn't invite girl Jiujiu, she came to the door automatically!" Duanmu retorted immediately when he saw Jiang.

Although Bai Jiujiu didn't understand what happened to the grandpa and grandson, she still clarified a fact for Duanmu Jianjiang: "It is true that I came here by myself, and I just passed by by accident."

When Duanmu saw Jiang first, he was happy that she had testified for himself, but soon he was very angry because of her second sentence: "Oh, girl, can you stop being so straightforward! If you say you will come by yourself, you will come by yourself." , why say passing by."

"But I'm really..." Bai Jiujiu felt innocent.Is it wrong to tell the truth?But looking at Duanmu Jianjiang's face suddenly sinking because of this, he must have said something wrong.

Duanmuling came over, stood in front of Bai Jiujiu, lowered his head, and spoke solemnly and full of apologies.

"I'm sorry, Miss Bai. Grandpa joked with you about those things before, so don't take it to heart."

"You bastard, who the hell is joking about your life's event with others! You dare to talk nonsense again, see if I don't break your leg!" Listening to my grandson actually say in front of Bai Jiujiu Duanmu Jianjiang is so angry when he speaks against his will.He yelled out without saying a word.

"Grandpa..." Duanmu Ling's eyes were full of helplessness, but he couldn't express it clearly in front of Bai Jiujiu.

But Duanmu saw that Jiang didn't care about his worries, so he poured out all his thoughts: "Isn't it just being forced into marriage by the emperor? Why choose one of the two! Who cares about being a relative of the emperor! Who cares about being a prime minister?" The mansion’s Chenglong is about to be his son-in-law! We don’t want both of them anymore, but we only have our eyes on this innocent girl Jiujiu, what’s the matter, who doesn’t agree, come to our Duanmu mansion to try to rob someone!”

Hearing the indignant and impassioned words, Bai Jiujiu was both sad and happy.

The surrounding area was very quiet, and everyone seemed to be waiting for her to express her opinion.However, can she still speak out what is in her heart now?
