Chapter 146: Forbearance is the most painful

When Bai Jiuxiao and Tongquan came to the Duiying Teahouse, there were many guests in the teahouse, drinking tea and listening to the piano, and they were very happy.

Quge's maid Zisu's face froze slightly when she saw Bai Jiuxiao entering.

Some time ago, all the secret posts received his portrait, so she naturally knew him as the Ninth Prince of Zhao.

Pretending not to know, she greeted him enthusiastically: "You two gentlemen, please come this way."

Bai Jiuxiao and Tongquan followed her inside, and Bai Jiuxiao looked around the hall.

You really can't see any difference.

"You two gentlemen, please sit at this table." Zi Su pointed to a nearby seat.

The same spring passed.

Bai Jiuxiao suddenly turned around, walked straight to the stairs, and strode upstairs.

Zi Su's expression changed and she shouted "Young Master", trying to catch up and stop him, but Tong Quan blocked her way.

"Girl, please give me a pot of Biluochun first."

Zi Su looked embarrassed, and worry flashed across her eyes: "The second floor is not open to guests. Guests cannot go up casually."

"You dare to stop me, Ninth Prince?" Tongquan asked her.

Zi Su was startled, but unexpectedly he revealed his identity directly, pretending to be shocked: "Ninth Prince?"

"Yes! So, do you still want to stop me?" Tongquan asked.

Zisu pursed her lips and raised her eyes to the second floor.

Bai Jiuxiao walked up the stairs two or three steps at a time. Seeing that the door to the wing next to the stairs was ajar, she pushed it open and entered.

There was a little boy sitting at the table in the side room, eating snacks very comfortably, his short legs dangling in the air. When he heard the movement at the door, he turned his head and looked over.

Eyes facing each other.

Both of them were surprised.

It’s Ning Qingzhou!

The moment he saw Bai Jiuxiao, Ning Qingzhou froze, and the snacks in his hand were frightened. He was frozen there as if he had been cast a restraining spell. He looked at her with a pale face and wary eyes. Don't know what she is going to do.

Bai Jiuxiao only glanced at him, said nothing, turned around and walked out of the door, and closed the door as it was before.

In the room, Ning Qingzhou was stunned, a little unbelievable, and he even wondered if he was dreaming.

Looking at the door, it was exactly the same as before, as if no one had ever come in before.

In this room, Bai Jiuxiao saw the door of another room open and went straight in.

In the side room, a man and a woman were standing by the window, seemingly kissing?

Looking from the direction of the door, you can only see the familiar back of the man and a section of the woman's plain white gauze skirt.

Bai Jiuxiao's eyes narrowed, and she didn't move forward any further. She just stood there, watching indifferently, as the woman suddenly stretched out her arms to wrap around the man's neck.

Not wanting to look any further, she knocked on the door twice with the hilt of the long sword in her hand.

The man and woman by the window turned around when they heard the sound.

The moment they saw her, both of them reacted greatly. One quickly withdrew his arm, and the other quickly took a step back. Panic flashed in both of their eyes.

Bai Jiuxiao saw this in his eyes, expressionless, and stepped in. Without even looking at Ning Shiqian, he asked Quge directly: "Are you the owner of this teahouse?"

Quge seemed to remember that her veil was still hanging on one side, and quickly pulled it up to cover her mouth and nose, and replied: "Yes, what's the matter? Is there something wrong with this young master?"

"Nine Princes." Ning Shiqian called out and gave her a slight salute.

Bai Jiuxiao narrowed her eyes. Was he greeting her, or reminding Qu Ge of her identity?

With a fleeting glance, she looked towards him: "Didn't the fourth prince return to the court with a proton? Why are he here?"

In fact, she had roughly guessed the reason.

Probably for safety reasons, he asked the group to take an open road to hide from others, so he secretly took Ning Qingzhou away secretly.

"Are the Ninth Prince's injuries healed?" Ning Shiqian stared at her deeply and asked the question without answering.

He met many people today who wanted to ask this question.

I wanted to ask when I met Emperor Wen, I wanted to ask on the way to Fuxia Palace with Qin Fulai, and I wanted to ask even more when I met Lu Chengxi when leaving the palace.

But out of various considerations, he didn't ask.

Let Shi Lei and his group leave first, and he took Shi Yi to leave separately. In fact, in addition to safety considerations, there was another point. He didn't want to just leave like that.

He wanted to see her, even from a distance, to at least confirm her current situation.

He was still thinking about how to implement it.

He didn't expect her to appear in front of him like this.

But, she must have misunderstood just now, right?

His posture was like that of Qu Ge, and the angle she was standing at

In fact, it was Qu Ge who had flying threads in his eyes and asked him to help with it. He didn't expect that Qu Ge suddenly hooked his neck.

At this moment, his mood was exciting and complicated.

I was excited to meet her, but also a little panicked because I was afraid that she would misunderstand. I was also patient because she was so indifferent and bitter, and I needed more reason.

The most painful thing is to endure.

Even if you know she misunderstood, you still can't explain it, and it's even better to think she misunderstood.

She didn't even dare to show any emotion when she asked her, "Is the Ninth Prince's injury healed?"

"You can't die yet." Bai Jiuxiao replied.

"I wonder what the reason for Lord Ninth Prince's visit is?" Qu Ge also bowed to Bai Jiuxiao.

Bai Jiuxiao looked around the room without going around in circles: "Let the teahouse close today. I want to search someone."

Qu Ge's face froze slightly.

Ning Shiqian was also stunned for a moment, looking surprised.

"The Ninth Prince wants to search for someone in my teahouse? Who?" Qu Ge asked.

"One of my king's men disappeared after entering your teahouse last night."

Qu Ge was particularly surprised: "You disappeared in my teahouse?"

"Are you surprised?" Bai Jiuxiao looked straight into her eyes.

Qu Ge's heart trembled.

No matter how calm she was, no matter how calm she was, she found that she was afraid to look into those eyes.

Looking away, she said with a guilty conscience: "I am indeed very surprised."

"Go down and let everyone leave. I'm going to lead a search." Bai Jiuxiao didn't want to waste any more words with her.

Tongquan said that Duan Chao came in but did not come out, which meant that he was either imprisoned or had encountered something unexpected.

And they didn't see anyone carrying anything out, which meant that even if something unexpected happened, the body would definitely be temporarily hidden in this teahouse.

Qu Ge naturally disagreed: "The Ninth Prince doesn't have any evidence. Isn't it inappropriate to force me to close my business like this?"

"I want evidence for what I do? Don't say that I just want you to suspend business for one day. I want to close your teahouse and demolish your teahouse. What can you do?" Bai Jiuxiao said with a fierce tone and a terrifying momentum.

Qu Ge's eyelashes trembled slightly.

Ning Shiqian looked at Bai Jiuxiao, as if he had seen the aloof Ninth Prince again, who said what is truth, and she is the truth.

Seeing that Qu Ge didn't move, Bai Jiuxiao no longer had the patience to talk nonsense with her, so he turned around and left.

Since she didn't know what it means to be polite before fighting, she could just let people search her.

"Ninth Prince, is there any misunderstanding about this?" Seeing her like this, Ning Shiqian spoke out.

Bai Jiuxiao stopped and turned around.

There will be more at night~~
