The devil relies on the cat

Chapter 146 Juxianzhai 1
The first thing that Bai Jiujiu saw after waking up was Xia Jinchai's scrutinizing face.

Die!She clearly remembered that she had a long talk with her senior brother all night, okay, why did the senior brother turn into a bad-hearted Prince Chai now!
With an unprecedented speed, her little head remembered some of the bad experiences before, and she was so startled that she pulled the quilt and buried her face in the bed with a huff.

However, someone's reaction didn't seem to be inferior. Before Bai Jiujiu could see a trace of darkness, there was a "chi la" on his forehead, and the eyes were bright.

"My lord—" There was no way, Bai Jiujiu had no choice but to pretend that nothing happened, forced a smile and shouted sweetly.

"Well, I can be considered to recognize this king." Xia Jinchai stopped staring at him like that, and took a step away with his eyes closed.He said it in a tone, whether it was self-deprecating or blaming, it made Bai Jiujiu's heart full of weirdness.

When did I not recognize him?But sometimes I don't know how to deal with it.

Deeply aggrieved, she pursed her small mouth, and couldn't help but slipped into the bed again, revealing only her disheveled hair.

"Okay, if you don't get up again, the sun will shine on your butt!" While speaking, Xia Jinchai threw off her quilt.

"Ah!" Bai Jiujiu screamed in shock.

"Ah, what, are you well dressed, are you cold?" Xia Jinchai laughed angrily.Why is this woman so guarded against herself?

Well dressed?Bai Jiujiu looked down, didn't she, yesterday's set of clothes was being worn intact.Alas, I was so nervous.Immediately, he smirked and got out of bed.

But the first thing she did when she got out of bed was not to put on her shoes, let alone to wash up.Instead, he made a big salute to Xia Jinchai.

"Thank you, my lord, for taking care of Jiujiu these days! Jiujiu must... remember it in my heart."

Looking at Jiujiu who suddenly became grateful to him, Xia Jinchai felt a little warmth in his heart.It seemed that it was not in vain that she had worked so hard for a few days, but she still remembered it when she woke up.

Xia Jinchai was not used to this feeling, so he turned his head slightly and pretended to say in a low voice, "Get up. Don't be so polite in front of me, I won't be used to it."

The cold and serious words seemed to be true to himself, and Bai Jiujiu's face, which had just been red and cloudy, turned pale in an instant.Well, he didn't care that he was so thankful.I am really self-indulgent!
Just as he was feeling unhappy, Xia Jinchai coughed and said, "It's already high in the sun, if you're not feeling hungry, then I'm going to eat first."

Ahhh, let me just say why my stomach is growling now, so it's already lunch time!

Immediately, Bai Jiujiu got up quickly, combed her hair hastily, and then said to Xia Jinchai while tucking up the wrinkled corners of her clothes: "Okay, okay, Jiujiu will serve Lord Chai for dinner."

The two went to the dining room.However, sitting at the table and waiting, before Huang Min came into the room with the food, a guard came instead.

The guard said that a young man in white surnamed Huang told him to come and report to the lord Ming before leaving the house. He had no time for lunch today and had to go out to do some errands.

Looking at the disappointed Bai Jiujiu, Xia Jinchai said with a smile: "Tell me, what do you want to eat? This king sees that you have just recovered from a serious illness, so I will do it for you once."

Eh, today's Xia Jinchai is so talkative?Although Bai Jiujiu had some doubts, but thinking that he had been so accommodating to herself for several days in a row, she stopped being polite to him.

"I want to eat Tianxiang Sixi! Beiluo Bajin!"

Without thinking, Bai Jiujiu reported the names of two dishes that he thought about day and night.Hey, don't think it's just two dishes, you'll understand when it's on the table.

Xia Jinchai frowned.These two dishes seem to have never been reported by Chun Xia Qiu Dong.Can't help but cast a questioning look like Bai Jiujiu.

Immediately, Bai Jiujiu giggled, and answered honestly: "Hehe, the chefs in the palace don't know the specialty dishes of Shijuelou."

Isn't Shijue Tower just across the street from Chunyue Tower?

"Shijuelou is too far away, I'd better take you to the nearby Juxianzhai for dinner." No matter whether Bai Jiujiu nodded or objected, Xia Jinchai, as the prince, took the first step and went out the door first.

Bai Jiujiu immediately clenched her fist and threw it at his back who was a few steps away.You, you, you broke your promise!
However, when she was starving and complaining all the way to Juxian Zhai, she realized, wow, this place is really filled with immortal energy, and the specifications and grades are more than one grade higher than Shijuelou!
He couldn't help but eagerly followed Xia Jinchai into the room.Because of her temperament of watching the show, Xia Jinchai once again accommodated her, not asking for a box, but just choosing a seat by the window for her convenience.

The dishes were quickly placed on the cloth one by one, and the table was filled in a short while.And because of the lunch time, there were relatively many passers-by in the corridor, and without exception, they cast all kinds of attention salutes on this table.There is curiosity, surprise, and even more contempt and envy.

Although Xia Jinchai has always ignored the eyes of the world, but this Bai Jiujiu is a girl after all, can she be more gentle?

Immediately the wine glass was put down, and she ordered to her: "You eat slowly for this king! Be gentle! If you don't know, you still think that I have abused the maid in the Chai Palace for several days and haven't given you food!"

"Oh!" Bai Jiujiu nodded chatteringly while still devouring.

Xia Jinchai was so angry that she wanted to snatch the chopsticks from her hand, but Bai Jiujiu easily avoided it.He robbed again, only to find that she buried her head under the table while hiding.

Xia Jinchai slapped the table and was about to roar, but there was a hissing sound from under the table.

"Shhh—Is there anything for you to ask the lord to talk about later."

Hey, when did this woman become so mysterious?He was so timid that he hid under the table!
Xia Jinchai couldn't help but silently looked around.Turning around, I happened to meet someone who was looking at me at the same time.

No, to be precise, what that person was looking at was not himself, but the empty seat opposite him that was in a mess.

Duanmuling, who was still walking on the stairs, noticed that Xia Jinchai was probing his gaze, so he withdrew his thoughts in time, and bowed to him: "I have seen Lord Chai!"

Xia Jinchai sneered inwardly, hum, did the sun come out from the west today? Bai Jiujiu was willing to hide from Duanmuling!
With a smile on his face, he said politely: "General Duanmu, excuse me!"

And a middle-aged man who was leading the way before stopped immediately when he heard this, and gave Xia Jinchai a respectful gift: "Lu Qin, the housekeeper of the old servant Anxiang's mansion, send greetings to Prince Chai!"

The butler of the Anxiang Mansion?
Xia Jinchai quickly smiled knowingly: "Oh, it was Prime Minister An who hosted General Duanmu, so I won't bother you any more!"
