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

Ok?

Xiao Jinfeng's expression clearly froze when he heard the conversation between Jiang Xiaobai and the maid.

So... Jiang Xiaobai just went to the pavilion but didn't reveal the song's title?

But after Jiang Xiaobai returned, he deliberately told His Majesty that he had already spoken!

hiss!

I have to say, this kid... he's really got some nerve!

Thinking of this, Xiao Jinfeng couldn't help but give Jiang Xiaobai a deep look.

He had met Jiang Xiaobai's eldest and second eldest brothers; both of them were quite straightforward.

Although Jiang Jingcheng, the Marquis of Zhenbei, was hot-tempered and decisive, he was still a man with principles.

But Jiang Xiaobai is different!

Not only did this kid cross the line, he also bounced back and forth on that baseline!

What the Marquis of Zhenbei's mansion dared not say before, this kid dares to do without missing a single detail!

Xiao Jinfeng hadn't thought much of it before, only that Jiang Xiaobai was a young man who was being forced into a certain situation and was simply rebelling against it.

Now it seems... this kid probably did it on purpose!

Thinking of this, Xiao Jinfeng clicked his tongue twice and looked at the maid, saying, "You, your attitude is indeed not very good!"

"Asking for help? Who asks like that? Well, this time, you've hit a brick wall!"

"snort!"

Upon hearing Xiao Jinfeng's words, the maid gritted her teeth, her face full of resentment.

Finally unable to resist, he pushed off with his feet and charged forward again.

"Jiang Xiaobai, you're not leaving until you tell me!"

"Why!"

Seeing this, Xiao Jinfeng sighed and was about to go over and say a few words of advice when a loud explosion suddenly rang out.

boom!

That piercing sound was deafening!

Ok?

Xiao Jinfeng's expression changed, and he immediately strode out.

Li Bingzhang and the others also followed them outside.

It was at this moment that they saw a tree not far away whose trunk had been blown open.

A terrifyingly large hole was left in the tree trunk.

Jiang Xiaobai stood there, hand still raised, pointing at the maid, his face icy: "Get lost, don't bother me!"

"If there's a next time, I'll kill you!"

After saying that, Jiang Xiaobai snorted coldly and turned to walk outside.

The maid stood there, her face deathly pale, and slowly turned her head to look at the shattered tree trunk beside her.

Just now... if that blow had landed on her.

She knew she was definitely going to die!

Moreover, she could tell from Jiang Xiaobai's eyes just now that Jiang Xiaobai really dared to do it!

Xiao Jinfeng, who came out from behind, was also horrified when he saw the exploded tree.

What kind of tactic is this?

Finger strength? Doesn't seem like it!

Hidden weapon? That doesn't seem like it either!

Li Bingzhang was also shocked. He had never heard of Jiang Xiaobai having such abilities before!

Still stunned, Xiao Jinfeng took a deep breath, withdrew his gaze, glanced at the maid, and said, "Sigh, let's go back!"

The maid's face turned pale, and her lips moved, but she couldn't utter a word.

Xiao Jinfeng did not linger and followed along with Li Bingzhang.

Jiang Xiaobai continued walking forward.

Tang Ningshuang followed beside her without saying a word.

In her opinion, the maid was indeed a bit unruly.

Li Zhiwei also remained silent.

Although she was gentle by nature, she still felt that the maid had gone too far!

Therefore, neither of them felt that Jiang Xiaobai had gone too far!

As Jiang Xiaobai and his group gradually walked away, the maid slowly came to her senses. She glanced at the shattered tree trunk again, and her body trembled slightly.

Finally, the maid looked again in the direction Jiang Xiaobai had left.

There was anger in his eyes, but even more so, fear.

A moment later, the maid gritted her teeth and quickly headed towards the center of the lake.

……

Here.

Jiang Xiaobai followed Xiao Jinfeng and the others to a courtyard deep within the garden.

The courtyard was very large, and a large area of ​​green bamboo was planted inside.

When the wind blows, the bamboo leaves rustle softly.

There are also artificial hills and a small lake nearby.

The lake is not large, but it is clear and transparent, with a few fallen leaves floating on the surface, creating an excellent environment.

Jiang Xiaobai looked around and couldn't help but sigh inwardly, this royal garden was indeed extraordinary.

The fact that the Green Robe Society built this place is truly amazing!

Soon, the group entered the lobby.

The lobby is filled with a scholarly atmosphere, with paintings and calligraphy hanging on the walls.

Some of the calligraphy and paintings look very old, and those that are hung here are obviously the work of famous artists.

"Sit down and let's talk!"

Xiao Jinfeng raised his hand and waved, then naturally sat down in the main seat.

That's right. Although he didn't really manage the Green Robe Society, he at least held the title of president.

It is only natural for him to sit in the main seat.

As Xiao Jinfeng finished speaking, Li Bingzhang, Jiang Xiaobai, and the others sat down.

Zhang Xinnian, holding the wine jar, stood obediently behind Jiang Xiaobai.

Before Xiao Jinfeng could speak, Jiang Xiaobai raised his head and said, "Thank you, Your Highness, for helping us out of that predicament!"

Yes, even if the wine just now wasn't good, he believed Xiao Jinfeng would still have to say it was good!

"hehe!"

After hearing this, Xiao Jinfeng smiled and glanced at Jiang Xiaobai: "You know that I came to your rescue not just for your sake."

"It was also directed at His Majesty!"

Ok?

A hint of surprise flashed across Jiang Xiaobai's face.

That's right, he was just being polite when he said that.

Logically speaking, Xiao Jinfeng should have just said something along those lines.

Unexpectedly... the Fourth Prince actually saw right through it.

Xiao Jinfeng noticed Jiang Xiaobai's expression, a smirk playing on his lips, and continued, "However, you're quite bold, kid."

"They even dare to threaten His Majesty!"

Xiao Jinfeng paused, but his smile remained: "I can tell you the truth, although your Marquis's mansion commands a large army,... there are also His Majesty's men in your Zhenbei Army!"

"It's just that His Majesty doesn't dare to gamble easily right now!"

Ok?

Jiang Xiaobai listened, his expression growing increasingly surprised. He looked at Xiao Jinfeng, hesitant to speak.

That's right, is the Fourth Prince really that direct?

You dare tell him all these things?

"This is not a secret at all."

Seeing Jiang Xiaobai's shocked expression, Xiao Jinfeng continued, "Your father should also know this!"

"Besides, don't let your father's loud and boisterous manner fool you; he's a shrewd man!"

"Heh heh, your father probably knows everything about how many people His Majesty arranged, and who this person is!"

"..."

Jiang Xiaobai's expression became somewhat strange upon hearing Xiao Jinfeng's words.

"Why!"

Xiao Jinfeng shook his head and said, "Although I have no interest in imperial power, I don't want to see you all fall out."

"That's why I spoke up for them just now."

After hearing this, Jiang Xiaobai felt a greater sense of respect for Xiao Jinfeng.

Perhaps, this fourth prince is the one who understands life the most.

Be confused when you should be confused, and see things clearly when you should see things clearly, seeing things more clearly than anyone else.

"The Fourth Prince is quite insightful!"

Li Bingzhang couldn't help but say something at this point.

"Hehe, Prime Minister Li, I'm not insightful, I'm just easygoing. But you..."

After hearing this, Xiao Jinfeng looked at Li Bingzhang and said with a smile, "I think you can be very shrewd at times, but also quite muddle-headed at others!"

"Your Majesty, I've always wanted to remove you from your position as Prime Minister, leaving only Chief Minister Meng's side. Are you genuinely unaware of this, or are you feigning ignorance?"

Upon hearing this, Li Bingzhang remained silent for a moment.

Judging from his expression, Li Bingzhang must have noticed something.

"Hehe, Prime Minister Li, you've stumbled upon a marriage alliance with the Marquis's family by accident this time!"

Xiao Jinfeng continued, "And this kid, he even married into the family!"

At this point, Xiao Jinfeng looked at Li Bingzhang, his voice softening: "Otherwise, hehe... this imperial examination will not only cause trouble for the Zhenbei Marquis's residence!"

"Even your Prime Minister's residence has to be dragged into this!!"
