The devil relies on the cat

Chapter 164 The Imperial Study Room 3
After some hesitation, the old emperor finally sighed.

Pointing at Xia Jinchai, he said, "Bai Jiujiu, Xia Jinchai is the prince of my Qinghong Kingdom. If you don't love him emotionally, you're fine. If you love him, you're infatuated."

Then, he looked at Duanmuling again: "General Duanmu, I am a good man with both intelligence and resourcefulness in Qinghong Kingdom. He is always prudent in doing things, and his love life is blank. For you, I must be single-minded."

Then, he stared directly at Bai Jiujiu's blue eyes with unknown reason: "I don't want to favor either of these two. Therefore, I will leave the choice to you. You can choose whoever you want to live with. I Guarantee, never question the result! And never allow the other party to question it!"

It stands to reason that if an emperor said so, she, Bai Jiujiu, could confidently and boldly choose.However, she, Bai Jiujiu, was timid and dared not.

Not to mention walking towards Duanmu Ling, even if she stared at Duanmu Ling for a while, Xia Jinchai who was looking at her would get angry, and her scalp would become numb from the heat of the air.

Moreover, senior brother Huang Min also said that the old emperor doesn't work with Xia Jinchai.Hearing what the emperor said once was just Xia Jinchai giving him face once.Don't listen, let alone the little emperor of Qinghong Kingdom, even within the Six Realms, there is nothing he can do about it.

Do you have to give in for this?

Then he sneaked a glance at Duanmu Ling, just in time to meet the gaze he was looking at him.In the black and white eyes, the expectation is clearly visible.

Xia Jinchai suddenly said: "Father, my son suddenly thought, didn't General Duanmu just say that he wanted to ask Jiujiu something? It seems that he hasn't asked him yet, right?"

"Well, it's all my fault. I interrupted the girl as soon as she entered the door." The emperor nodded and said to Duanmu Ling, "General Duanmu, why don't you ask the question before Miss Bai makes a decision. Bar."

"This……"

Now Duanmu Ling doesn't have the mind to worry about those details just now.Just based on Bai Jiujiu's affectionate eyes looking at him again and again, he felt that what happened yesterday must be Xia Jinchai's nonsense!

Xia Jinchai snatched the conversation away with a chuckle: "Don't do this and that. If Mr. General doesn't ask now, I'm afraid you won't even have a chance to talk to her when the results come out later."

Facing Xia Jinchai's threat, Duanmuling insisted not to ask that question again.However, Bai Jiujiu asked him curiously.He had no choice but to raise the corners of his lips to indicate that she was fine.

Originally, there were only a handful of people in the huge imperial study.Who is doing what, everyone is very clear at a glance.This is great, Xia Jinchai, who is the closest to the two, can't bear it anymore when they see each other's eyes and flirt with each other.

"General Duanmu may leave regrets, so why don't you let me ask you about it?" Xia Jinchai immediately glared at Bai Jiujiu, "To be honest, why did you hide when you saw General Duanmu in Xianzhai yesterday?" Under the table? Besides, even if this king orders you to get up, you still refuse to come out?"

"I...I..." Bai Jiujiu was speechless.

Yesterday is yesterday, today is today, okay?Moreover, who knew that such a sad thing would happen to you, Xia Jinchai, in just one afternoon?Otherwise, everyone would not...

Bai Jiujiu, whose mind was in a mess, thought so, but when he touched a certain emperor in the hall with a questioning face, he suddenly felt that his thoughts had gone awry.

"Coincidence, just a coincidence." Although she was not good at telling lies, she was forced to blurt out a few quick words.

Xia Jinchai would never let her go, let alone in today's situation.

"What kind of coincidence made you squat under the table for a long time without seeing our General Duanmu?"

"Yes... yes..." She finally remembered someone, "I was just squatting down to pick up chopsticks, but suddenly I heard that General Duanmu was here for the appointment with Prime Minister An. So, I thought he and An Miss's marriage has been settled, so..."

This lie was the best she could tell with emotion and politeness after Bai Jiujiu came to the human world.But it's true, when she saw Duanmu Ling and An Shuiyao walking back and forth from the crowd, if there weren't too many people around the table, she really wanted to get under the table again.

Hmph, Xia Jinchai really didn't expect that Bai Jiujiu would have the brains to make up such an excellent lie.He couldn't help but nodded to her.There was a look in his eyes, but Bai Jiujiu's heart skipped a beat when he saw Bai Jiujiu.

She has been with him for some time, and she concluded that whenever he was about to punish herself, she could see this familiar fleeting look.

Just when she was worried, she listened to the old emperor's urging her to make a decision, and kept looking at Duanmuling secretly, constantly seeking help and courage.Suddenly, I felt my body vibrate, to be precise, it seemed that something huge was suddenly squeezed into the depths of my body.I just felt that my whole body was becoming more and more swollen and cracked, and there was a feeling that I could no longer stand up and breathe because I was squeezed into a corner, and she fell into a coma instantly due to the oppression.

However, it is clear that Jiujiu is already ignorant.But her body was still standing tall and graceful on a certain floor tile in the royal study.Moreover, even her blue eyes are still open.It's just that the blue light has dimmed a lot.

Bai Jiujiu slowly raised his head, looked at Duanmu Ling, and said in a calm tone: "General Duanmu is from a famous family. Although he is young, he has carried the important task of maintaining peace in the surrounding continents. I, Bai Jiujiu, have no talent and no education. How can He De raise eyebrows with such a hero?"

"Jiujiu, you don't have to be ashamed of yourself. My Duanmu family has always..."

Duanmuling immediately wanted to persuade her, but Bai Jiujiu only smiled apologetically at him.

"General Duanmu, Jiujiu understands and understands your love for Jiujiu. However, Jiujiu doesn't want to be Qinghong's sinner, let alone Duanmu's family. Therefore, please ask General Duanmu to ask the emperor to choose another one for you. It’s a marriage of the same family. We help each other and support each other, so that the Duanmu family can go further, and Qinghong can live in peace and prosperity forever.”

"I never imagined that a mere maid would have such a heart!" The old emperor really admired Bai Jiujiu.

Originally, he still thought that Xia Jinchai's eyesight was not good, so why did he choose a maid for two years but he fell in love with a maid.Unexpectedly, this girl is not serious, but she has some insights when she is serious.It is by no means comparable to those vulgar fans.

"What about my Chai Er, do you think we can live together?"

The old emperor was very excited and took the opportunity to ask.Hehe, I really hope that this girl can also say a few words to this emperor who has become more and more disobedient recently.
