Chapter 48 Black Cat
While talking, the boy outside knocked on the door, "Miss San, the Second Prince is here."

Lu Jia's eyebrows twitched suddenly.

Why is he here again!
At this time, what is he doing here, shouldn't he go into the palace to accompany the emperor?
For a while, Lu Jia couldn't tell whether he should be angry or what to do, so he put away the jade pendant, got up and opened the door, when the door opened, it happened that the second prince was led upstairs by the tavern boy.

After entering the room and closing the door, the second prince yelled at Lu Jia with anger on his face, "Are you crazy? You arranged for the black powder to explode? Do you know that you almost blew up the emperor to death! I've said it all, I'll take revenge with you, why don't you discuss things with me!"

Lu Jia looked at his maddened face due to excitement, heard his hoarse roar because he lowered his voice, and fell silent for a moment, "When the news of Ping Weijun's death came, did you question the transfer department with such emotions? Have you questioned Lord Zhen Guo?"

The second prince waved his hand, "This is two different things. An accident happened to the Pingwei army. It was caused by multiple reasons, but you can't go to this point just for revenge. Do you know the consequences of killing the father? The prince and the fourth prince are fighting to the death. , if the emperor dies, one of the two of them will take advantage of the opportunity to take the throne."

Hearing this, Lu Jia's heart turned cold, "So, you are afraid that you will lose your chance, aren't you?"

The second prince said with a sullen face, "I didn't say that."

Lu Jia sneered, "I blew up the black powder. I wanted to kill Duke Zhen. Why did Pingwei's 20 troops fall? It was because someone poisoned them, and it was because there were traitors in the army."

That night, when the second prince said that he wanted to be with her, Lu Jia felt warm in his heart.

But now, she suddenly didn't want to share this information with him.

He doesn't deserve it.

But Lu Jia endured the irritability in his heart, and patiently explained to him, "I didn't blow up any innocent people, and those who died deserved to die. As for you saying that you killed the emperor, that's impossible. I have no intention of killing the emperor." , and you, the emperor has been greatly frightened and has returned to the palace, presumably there are many imperial doctors in the palace, there are groups of concubines, and the princes and princesses are all doing their filial piety in front of the bed, why are you here?"

The second prince pursed his lips and laughed at himself: "I'm an unpopular prince. Why did I join in the fun in the past? I wouldn't even look at me when I went to my father."

"But if you don't go, it's a crime, a crime of unfilial piety!" Lu Jia said.

The second prince frowned, "Aren't I guilty if I go? If you want to convict me, you still need a reason. Why did I go to guard the imperial tomb for no reason, just because I accidentally knocked over a glass of wine at the palace banquet? I'll go!" It’s the same if you don’t go.”

Lu Jia couldn't believe that these were the words of a prince who wanted to fight for the throne.

Exhausted of patience, Lu Jia said: "You"

Before Lu Jia could speak, a black cat suddenly jumped in from the window on the second floor, and scratched at the second prince's face.

"Meow!"

The cat came too suddenly, and the speed was extremely fast, almost a black line swayed by. Before the second prince could react what happened, there was already a burning pain on his face.

Lu Jia was also stunned for a moment in shock.

How could a cat rush in suddenly.

Before Lu Jia reached out to chase the cat away, she stretched out her hand to drive away the cat. The cat was always black and its eyes were as bright as jewels. The moment Lu Jia reached out to drive it away, it stepped on the second prince's head and flew onto the roof beam. .

When Lu Jia looked up, it had already escaped from the window along the beams of the house, with an elegant posture.

The second prince covered his scratched face and got angry angrily, "Aren't you the most powerful female general in the Pingwei Army? Why can't you even catch a cat? How will you protect me in the future!"

Lu Jia originally felt a little bit distressed because the second prince was scratched by a cat on the face, but as soon as these words came out, the little bit of distress disappeared immediately.

"Your Highness thinks highly of me. I'm not very capable, so don't come to me anymore, Your Highness. We all want to avenge Ping Weijun, but we obviously have different opinions, and it's inevitable that our differences will hurt our relationship.

Moreover, I'm not safe here. The people in the criminal department have suspected me for a long time. If you come here more times, you will inevitably be implicated. "

The second prince wanted to persuade Lu Jia to let go, but his face was scratched so hotly that he was worried that there would be scars.

I can't be enthroned in the future, with a scar on my face.

Which emperor has a scar on his face.

The second prince had no choice but to leave first angrily.

"Oh my God, why is he like this? The old general loves him so much, it's unavoidable for him." Chun Bao leaned against the table with a disappointed face, "The old general always said that he is kind-hearted. I don't think he is kind-hearted. This is completely because the mother forgot to bring her brain out when the womb fell to the ground, and it all melted into the amniotic fluid."

Lu Jia didn't want to comment on the second prince, so she went to the window and looked out, "I don't see anyone raising a cat nearby, that cat doesn't look like a wild cat, its fur is smooth and slippery."

Posing his head and looking out, Lu Jia saw a ragged man in the alley downstairs.

The man was looking up at her window with his shoulders hunched over, with scars on his face. The black cat was squatting on the man's shoulder.

After meeting her eyes for a moment, the man patted the black cat on his shoulder, turned and left.

Lu Jia almost subconsciously tapped her toes and flew out of the window, but she restrained herself. There were people in the backyards of so many nearby businesses. If she flew out so blatantly, the news would reach Xiao Gou's ears in a blink of an eye.

She might have to be caught again.

Who is that man?
Despite the scar on her face, why does she still look familiar?

Is he the second prince who let the cat attack?
Or is it a coincidence?
Coincidentally, I have heard of dogs being trained to attack, but I have never heard of training cats.

The man had gone away with the cat, Lu Jia could only look away, and Chun Bao also saw the man and the cat, "Miss, did that man visit our military camp a few years ago?"

Lu Jia raised his eyebrows, "You also think it looks familiar?"

Chun Bao nodded, "It should be seven or eight years ago. At that time, we were only seven or eight years old, and we were soldiers serving tea and water in the old general's camp. I remember someone visiting the old general late at night. I made lamb soup for him.

He was younger then, but he already had that penetrating scar on his face. "

When you visit late at night, the old general who can cook mutton soup for reception must be a friend.

Just who?
Lu Jia had no impression.

Chunbao's memory is limited to cooking mutton soup.

Seven or eight years ago, let alone the time, the two of them were too young at that time.

If it's really a friend, why did this person show up this time?
And that cat, did it intentionally attack the second prince?Why did he attack? Didn't he know that the second prince was the grandson of the old general?But this is no secret.
