Reborn to abuse the scumbag, the demon queen destroyed her ex-husband's entire family

If she hadn't pulled Xiao Ruge out, Xiao Ruge would still be recuperating in the general's mansion.

"Brother Zhao said there is a large wisteria forest on the back mountain. Now is the time when the wisteria flowers are in bloom. We can go there and have some fun!"

Looking at the excited Princess Jianing, Mu Gu snorted, "Brother Zhao? You're calling me that in a very affectionate way!"

Princess Jianing was so angry that she tried to kick him, but Mu Gu dodged it.

"You are so annoying. Next time I will just take Ruge out to play and not let you come along!"

"That won't do. This is my wife. If you dare to snatch her away, I'll report you to my aunt!"

"you dare?"

The two of them were arguing fiercely. Xiao Ruge quickly grabbed Mu Gu, glared at him, and told him not to anger Princess Jianing again.

Zhao Yuanshan could only watch from the side. After all, he couldn't commit treason and attack a prince.

A few people came to the back mountain while talking and arguing. Before they got close, they saw a purple color on the back mountain. Waves of fragrance blew in the wind, which was very pleasant.

Before, Xiao Ruge had been resting in the carriage because she was exhausted, so she had not noticed that half of the mountain was purple. Now that she saw it, she immediately laughed.

“The scenery of the back mountain is really beautiful!”

Princess Jianing was also very happy and couldn't help running into the wisteria forest to look at this and that.

Wisteria is not a real tree, it needs to rely on climbing other things to grow, so the monks in the Guanyin Temple built a frame for each wisteria to make it easier for the wisteria to climb.

The frame was built to a height of more than one person, just enough for pilgrims to walk underneath and admire. There was also a small path paved with blue bricks leading straight ahead. Several people walked along the path and found that it led to a pavilion for resting.

This pavilion was built on the mountainside. Although it was easy to walk along the way, Xiao Ruge was a little tired, so they went to the pavilion to rest.

At this time, there were other pilgrims visiting the pavilion. Seeing that several people were dressed in extraordinary clothes, they could not help but look sideways.

A few people ignored those gazes, and everyone just looked at them for a while and then stopped looking.

Just when they were resting, several men and women came up from another path. One of the girls kept showing her courtesy to the man next to her.

Seeing the pavilion, he couldn't help but say, "Brother Duanmu, should we go to the pavilion to rest?"

The voice of "Brother Duanmu" immediately made Xiao Ruge and the others look over, and they found that it was Duanmu Ling.

There were several other men and women around him. It seemed that they had made an appointment to go out for fun together, but they didn't expect to meet them here.

Duanmu Ling didn't seem to expect to meet Princess Jianing here, so he stood there motionless for a while.

Xiao Ruge hurried to see Princess Jianing, and saw her staring blankly at Duanmu Ling. It was unclear whether the expression on her face was sad or relieved, but it didn't look very good anyway.

Zhao Yuanshan also saw Duanmu Ling. When he saw him looking at him, he quietly moved closer to Princess Jianing and said in a low voice, "Princess, are you thirsty? Do you want some water? I have some water here."

Princess Jianing came to her senses and looked up at him, and found that he was looking at her with concern in his eyes, and worry was evident between his thick brows.

She suddenly smiled and said, "I'm not thirsty. Let's sit down and rest for a while!"

She grabbed Zhao Yuanshan's big hand and could even feel that his whole body stiffened the moment she grabbed his hand.

She lowered her head, pursed her lips and smiled, then pulled Zhao Yuanshan aside. But when she glanced at the man next to her, she found that he was so nervous that he was at a loss for words, and she laughed instantly.

Seeing Princess Jianing smile, Zhao Yuanshan finally breathed a sigh of relief and sat beside her without moving.

Mu Gu stood up and walked over to Duanmu Ling and said, "Why are you here?"

"Invite friends to go out for an outing."

Duanmu Ling withdrew his gaze from Princess Jianing and sighed slightly in his heart.

To be honest, the way Princess Jianing talked to Zhao Yuanshan just now hurt his eyes, but he still said nothing and walked into the pavilion with a few people.

There were already many people in the pavilion at this time, and it was quite lively for a while.

A student recognized Duanmu Ling and came forward to chat with him. For a moment, Duanmu Ling was too busy to come over and greet Xiao Ruge and the others. Only Mu Gu stood beside him.

After dealing with those students, Duanmu Ling followed Mu Gu over. He first glanced at Princess Jianing and Zhao Yuanshan, then said, "What a coincidence that we meet here today. How is Miss Xiao?"

Xiao Ruge smiled and thanked him, "Thank you for your concern, Master Duanmu. I feel much better now."

Duanmu Ling nodded and wanted to talk to Princess Jianing, but Princess Jianing just turned her face away and ignored him, which made him feel embarrassed.

The people who were with him came forward to greet him. The girl who had been pestering Duanmu Ling looked at Princess Jianing and whispered, "Brother Duanmu, didn't you say that the view at the top of the mountain is the best? Let's go up and take a look! Otherwise, we might miss the vegetarian meal at noon!"

Duanmu Ling nodded and smiled apologetically at Mu Gu and the others, "You guys play, we'll go ahead!"

Mu Gu and Xiao Ruge nodded, but Princess Jianing never turned back. Seeing that Princess Jianing didn't say anything, Zhao Yuanshan pretended not to hear anything and just sat there stupidly.

Seeing that Princess Jianing didn't even want to look at him, Duanmu Ling felt pained, but he still turned around and left.

After walking a long way, he couldn't help looking back, but there were so many wisteria trees that blocked his view of the pavilion. He could not see anything except a field of wisteria flowers.

"Princess Jianing is too arrogant. Has she forgotten how she used to chase after Brother Duanmu?"

The girl who was pestering Duanmu Ling pouted and spoke up for Duanmu Ling, but no one else responded when they heard this.

One of the ladies who was on good terms with her frowned and advised: "Jingjing, this is a bit overstepping the mark. She is the princess, and we cannot discuss her!"

"What's so great about the princess..."

"Shut up! The princess has royal blood flowing in her veins. To disrespect the royal family is to disrespect the royal authority. According to the Dalong Law, those who disrespect the royal authority shall be executed!"

Duanmu Ling glared at the outspoken young lady with anger on his face, and finally snorted coldly: "I will regard it as an unintentional mistake today, but if I hear you slandering the princess next time, I will definitely not let you off easily!"

After glaring at the young lady again, Duanmu Ling strode away, swinging his sleeves.

The other people who were on good terms with him hurriedly chased after her, and when they passed by the young lady, they couldn't help but look at her with pity.

Everyone has seen that Miss Jingjing likes Duanmu Ling. It's a pity that she is too careless with her words, and now, Duanmu Ling despises her.

Miss Jingjing's eyes turned red after being scolded, and tears started falling.
