My family has been wielding knives for generations, but now it's my turn to wield a pen!

Chapter 150 Is this really true?

"So what do you mean?"

Chen Zhanqiu looked at Zhao Sheng, his brows furrowed.

That's right, he's definitely not sure right now.

It's true that they leaked this information.

However, the news spread so quickly that it became somewhat out of control.

Once things get out of control, they can easily go wrong.

"What I mean is, this is fine as it is!"

Zhao Sheng slowly sat down, picked up his teacup, and looked at Chen Zhanqiu with a smile, saying, "Whether it was spread by people from the Zhenbei Marquis's residence or by people who dislike the Zhenbei Marquis's residence, it doesn't matter."

"It has nothing to do with us?"

Chen Zhanqiu frowned even more deeply.

"certainly."

Zhao Sheng nodded slightly, his voice calm and unhurried: "After all, sometimes the higher you climb, the harder you fall."

As he spoke, Zhao Sheng put down his teacup, a cold smile on his lips: "The Lanting Pavilion is about to open, and many important figures will be there."

"If Jiang Xiaobai dares to go, someone will take care of it; we won't be needed at all!"

"What if he doesn't go?"

Chen Zhanqiu spoke up.

"Heh, he'll go."

Zhao Sheng's smile deepened: "Jiang Xiaobai has been elevated to this position. If he doesn't go, it would be tantamount to admitting defeat."

"And those two articles will become evidence of his guilty conscience."

"So... he has no choice but to go."

As he spoke, Zhao Sheng paused slightly, "At that time, Lord Chen can also go and watch, and see how this young master of the Jiang family makes a fool of himself!"

Upon hearing this, Chen Zhanqiu's eyes lit up, but he quickly realized something.

"just in case……"

Chen Zhanqiu turned his gaze back to Zhao Sheng: "What if Lin Qinrou really pins those two articles on Jiang Xiaobai?

This is what he's really worried about.

"On Teachers" originated from Lin Daiyu's lineage.

"On Horses" is related to Lin Qinrou.

If you go upstairs to the Lanting Pavilion, Lin Qinrou will directly admit that those two articles were written by Jiang Xiaobai.

So what they're doing now is actually helping Jiang Xiaobai succeed?

"Ha ha!"

Upon hearing this, Zhao Sheng burst out laughing: "Don't worry, Lord Chen!"

"The reopening of the Orchid Pavilion is a test, not something that can be decided simply by looking at those two articles!"

"Moreover, my teacher is a member of the Green Robe Society. He knows the rules of the society. Even if my junior sister wanted to favor Jiang Xiaobai, she couldn't do that."

Is this really true?

After hearing this, Chen Zhanqiu's expression finally softened a bit.

"Naturally true."

Zhao Sheng said calmly, "Now that Lanting Tower has reopened, we must follow the rules."

"If Jiang Xiaobai doesn't have real talent and learning, does he really think he can gain a foothold at Lanting Tower with just two articles?"

"Oh……"

At this point, Zhao Sheng sneered, "That's just wishful thinking."

"Alright, alright, I'm relieved!"

Upon hearing this, Chen Zhanqiu finally nodded, and the worries that had been weighing on his heart dissipated considerably.

"So, Lord Chen, you can rest assured!"

Zhao Sheng looked at Chen Zhanqiu and smiled, "After the Lanting Tower, Jiang Xiaobai will be completely defeated."

"At that time, he won't affect you in the slightest, and... I believe His Majesty will also strip him of his title of top scholar and announce it to the world."

"That would be even better!!"

Upon hearing this, Chen Zhanqiu burst into laughter: "In that case, let him spread it! The wider it spreads, the better!"

"No, I must add fuel to the fire, so that even more people in the capital know that those two articles were written by Jiang Xiaobai!"

"That would be even better..."

After reading it, Zhao Sheng smiled and said, "After all, the wider the word spreads, the faster Jiang Xiaobai will die."

"He'll only know what it means to be shattered to pieces when he falls from that height!"

After saying that, a cold glint flashed across Zhao Sheng's face.

"Haha, great!"

Chen Zhanqiu laughed and nodded, "I like to hear what Young Master Zhao has to say!"

As soon as he finished speaking, loud laughter erupted from the study.

……

Two more days passed, and Jiang Xiaobai remained at the Marquis's residence.

While things were in an uproar outside, Jiang Xiaobai was unusually quiet, spending all his time in his study writing mathematical methods.

Sometimes when he wrote quickly, he would ask Zhang Xinnian to deliver it to Tianjifang.

After all, he had taken the contract for Tianji Workshop, so half of Tianji Workshop was now in his hands.

It would be somewhat unreasonable to give them nothing at all.

Of course, Jiang Xiaobai didn't write too much at once.

You can't just dump all your calculations out at once.

It has to be given little by little.

Firstly, Tianjifang also needs time to process this.

Secondly... if things are given away too quickly, they become worthless.

Jiang Xiaobai was aware of this.

Inside the study, Jiang Xiaobai sat at the table, slowly writing with his pen.

Next to it were several sheets of paper that had already been written on.

The above are some basic arithmetic methods.

It's not too deep.

But for Tianjifang, it's enough.

Just then, hurried footsteps suddenly came from outside.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the door was pushed open, and Zhang Xinnian strode in.

"Your Highness!"

Zhang Xinnian first glanced at Tang Ningshuang, then his gaze fell on Jiang Xiaobai, and he immediately said, "The rumors circulating outside about those two articles have completely gone viral!"

"Oh?"

Jiang Xiaobai didn't stop writing, but simply responded softly, "How crazy?"

"It's being talked about everywhere!"

Zhang Xinnian stepped forward, his voice filled with surprise: "There are even people giving lectures on the street!"

"They say you've been hiding your talents for many years, and that you became the top scholar because of your true abilities."

"By the way, someone else said you've prepared another groundbreaking article to display at the Orchid Pavilion!"

"Oh, that's good news."

Jiang Xiaobai nodded with a smile, put down his pen, picked up the paper, blew on it gently, and handed it to Zhang Xinnian.

"Send this method of calculation to Tianji Workshop as well."

"Okay!"

Zhang Xinnian quickly took it.

Just as he received it, Zhang Xinnian couldn't help but glance at Jiang Xiaobai again: "Young Master, all the rumors outside are good things about you. Do you think... there might be a trap here?"

That's right. Jiang Xiaobai's reputation was terrible before, but now it's completely reversed, which makes people feel uneasy.

"Maybe!"

Jiang Xiaobai spoke up.

"Then perhaps you... shouldn't go to Lanting Tower!"

Zhang Xinnian advised, "Lest we fall into their trap!"

Writing a groundbreaking article is no easy feat.

This is clearly a trap set by someone with ulterior motives!

"go."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Xiaobai couldn't help but chuckle: "If I don't go, their show won't be able to happen."

"what?"

Zhang Xinnian opened his mouth, but for a moment he didn't know what to say.

"hehe!"
