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

Damn it!!

Looking at Jiang Xiaobai's shameless attitude, Chen Zhanqiu felt like his chest was about to explode with anger.

Yes, he used to be so composed.

As the Minister of Rites, he was always able to remain calm and composed no matter what happened.

But ever since he met that bastard Jiang Xiaobai, he hasn't had a moment's peace.

That person's words are infuriating!

But he couldn't just lash out directly.

"Alright, we'll listen to Jiang Xiaobai." Xiao Jinxuan glanced at Chen Zhanqiu and said.

"yes!"

Chen Zhanqiu took several deep breaths to barely suppress his anger, but his face was still unpleasant.

Seeing Chen Zhanqiu's expression, Jiang Xiaobai smiled faintly, then looked back at the white gauze pavilion in the middle of the lake, lost in thought.

Yes, this situation is indeed a bit troublesome.

The white veil obscures the view, and the distance is too great to see clearly or know the nature of the person inside.

Getting someone to perform a song is not that easy.

Chen Zhanqiu sat to the side, his gaze still fixed on Jiang Xiaobai, his face gloomy.

Yes, he wanted to see how Jiang Xiaobai would get the person in the pavilion to perform a song!

As time passed, the entire courtyard became very quiet.

All eyes were on Jiang Xiaobai.

Xiao Zijing rested her chin on her hand, her eyes bright, her face full of anticipation.

For some reason, she just felt that Jiang Xiaobai could do it.

Xiao Qingheng remained calm.

Several elders in blue robes were also sizing up Jiang Xiaobai, clearly curious... whether this young master Jiang, who had made a name for himself at Lanting Tower, could still offer any surprises.

Li Bingzhang held his teacup, his expression calm, but his gaze would occasionally drift towards Jiang Xiaobai.

As for Li Zhiwei, she sat next to Jiang Xiaobai, her expression slightly tense.

She naturally hoped that Jiang Xiaobai would succeed, but the current situation was indeed difficult.

Just then, Jiang Xiaobai's eyes suddenly lit up.

"Got it!"

Jiang Xiaobai slapped his thigh hard.

The commotion startled many people inside the courtyard.

Li Zhiwei also turned her head to look at Jiang Xiaobai, her expression filled with doubt.

"Miss Li!"

Jiang Xiaobai lowered his voice and looked at Li Zhiwei, asking, "Miss Li, do you know any tunes?"

"tune?"

Li Zhiwei was taken aback.

"So, how should the sheet music be written?" Jiang Xiaobai nodded.

Li Zhiwei was full of doubts.

Jiang Xiaobai asked why, was he planning to compose a song on the spot?

Surprised, Li Zhiwei whispered, "As for sheet music, I only know a little bit, but I'm not an expert."

"fine!"

Jiang Xiaobai said in a low voice, "Just give a brief explanation."

The music from the previous life will be written in Arabic numerals, but this world will certainly be different.

Therefore, it's better to understand it more clearly.

Li Zhiwei nodded gently and quietly explained the general method of writing the melody.

The two people didn't speak loudly.

But those present, watching them talk, naturally became curious as well.

What are they talking about?

Xiao Zijing blinked, clearly more interested.

Chen Zhanqiu watched coldly.

In his view, Jiang Xiaobai was nothing more than a charlatan, and its failure in the end was even more shameful!

A moment later, Jiang Xiaobai also understood the general idea.

Although Li Zhiwei only said it briefly, it was enough for him.

Jiang Xiaobai raised his head and looked at Xiao Jinxuan, saying, "Your Majesty, may I compose a piece of music and send it over?"

Yes, this time, he doesn't mind showcasing more of the culture from his previous life.

As for the music, he can neither play it nor sing it.

But he can still write simple chord melodies.

"song?"

Jiang Xiaobai's words surprised many people in the courtyard.

Yes, they originally thought Jiang Xiaobai could write poetry.

After all, Jiang Xiaobai was at Lantinglou, and his poems and essays were quite remarkable.

If one wants to impress the wise man in the pavilion, writing a good poem or lyric would be a reasonable explanation.

But who would have thought that Jiang Xiaobai would actually ask to write a song?

No, this guy... can compose music too?

what?

Li Zhiwei also looked at Jiang Xiaobai in surprise.

Is Jiang Xiaobai really planning to compose music?

Tang Ningshuang sat beside him, also looking at Jiang Xiaobai.

Jiang Xiaobai can write poems, articles, stories, and also brew wine.

Can he also compose music?

Just how much does this guy still know that others don't?

"Ha ha!"

Xiao Jinxuan then laughed heartily: "Of course!"

As he spoke, Xiao Jinxuan's expression turned serious again, "However, it's not like no one has tried this before."

"But this master has very high standards; ordinary tunes are not worthy of his attention."

Xiao Jinxuan paused, then glanced at Chen Zhanqiu: "Including this time, Lord Chen brought a piece of music."

"Unfortunately, after it was sent over, there was no further response. I remember... Lord Chen said it was composed by a famous composer?"

"yes!"

Chen Zhanqiu nodded awkwardly.

He did indeed buy that piece of music at a high price, but who knew... after sending it over, the person in the pavilion didn't even give the slightest response.

"hehe!"

Xiao Jinxuan looked at Jiang Xiaobai again: "So, have you thought this through? The chances of failing at composing music are very high!"

As Xiao Jinxuan finished speaking, many people nodded in agreement.

That's right, this master is a musician.

Having seen countless pieces of music, trying to move someone with music is like showing off one's limited skills before an expert.

"That's because I didn't come!"

Jiang Xiaobai simply smiled faintly after hearing this.

These people have no idea of ​​the terror he accumulated over five thousand years in his previous life!

"Ha ha!"

Upon hearing this, the courtyard fell silent for a moment, and then Chen Zhanqiu burst into laughter.

Yes, it has to be said, Jiang Xiaobai is really too arrogant.

He admitted that Jiang Xiaobai's poetry was indeed amazing.

But this tune, wait... something's not right!

Chen Zhanqiu's smile suddenly vanished.

That's right, Jiang Xiaobai did sing a song at Lanting Tower.

Could it be...?

Thinking of this, Chen Zhanqiu looked at Jiang Xiaobai and said, "You're not planning to write down that tune from the Orchid Pavilion, are you?"

"Let me tell you, when that piece of music arrived, the masters inside had already performed it!"

After Chen Zhanqiu finished speaking, Xiao Jinxuan nodded slightly.

He was the one who sent that piece of music.

"Of course not!"

Jiang Xiaobai shook his head.

"oh!"

Chen Zhanqiu breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this.

As long as it's not like that, it's fine.

Seeing Chen Zhanqiu's reaction, Jiang Xiaobai simply smiled faintly.

With so many classic works from the past, picking just one and putting it here should be enough, right?

"Then write it!"

Chen Zhanqiu said, "I'd like to see what kind of music you can compose!"

"Very well, Lord Chen, prepare the tea first!"

Jiang Xiaobai glanced at Chen Zhanqiu, her smile unchanged.

When Xiao Jinxuan saw Jiang Xiaobai say that, he immediately raised his hand.

The maid beside him understood what was going on and quickly brought out a writing brush, ink, paper, and inkstone, placing them in front of Jiang Xiaobai.

Jiang Xiaobai sat up straighter, picked up his pen, but didn't put it down immediately. Instead, he looked at the paper in front of him and fell into deep thought.

Yes, there were too many songs from my past life.

Which one to choose?

This is truly a headache!
