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

"edict?"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Xiaobai's expression immediately turned curious as he looked at Xiao Jinfeng and asked, "What imperial edict?"

"Oh, the officials have neglected their duties; they should be executed!"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Jinfeng smiled slightly, paused, and continued, "If a ruler lacks virtue, he may be deposed!"

Ok?

Upon hearing this, Jiang Xiaobai's face immediately showed disbelief.

Can a ruler be deposed if he is immoral?

The royal ancestors actually granted Cangfeng Mountain such great power.

That's right, this is no ordinary imperial edict; it's practically a sword hanging over the emperor's head!

Upon hearing this, Li Zhiwei and Tang Ningshuang's expressions visibly changed.

Although they may not understand the affairs of the court, they could still tell how powerful this imperial edict was!

However, Li Bingzhang remained calm, clearly knowing something about the matter.

Seeing Jiang Xiaobai's shock, Xiao Jinfeng smiled slightly again and glanced at the Qingshan Society.

"If nothing unexpected happens, the Green Robe Society... should also have a decree regarding this!"

But as soon as Xiao Jinfeng finished speaking, the old men of the Green Robe Society seemed not to have heard him, and they all kept their heads down, flipping through Jiang Xiaobai's manuscript.

Seeing this, Xiao Jinfeng shook his head helplessly and didn't press the matter.

However, he knew in his heart that the Green Robe Society probably also had members.

It's just that... these people don't say it.

Jiang Xiaobai looked at the old men in green robes, a strange light flashing in his eyes.

Regardless of whether the Green Robe Society exists or not, the edict from Cangfeng Mountain alone is enough to prove that the ancestors of the Great Hua royal family were definitely wise rulers.

That's right. The fact that such a thing could be left behind in advance shows that the ancestor was well aware of it.

Even emperors are human, and as human beings, they have selfish desires.

That's why people like Cangfeng Mountain and Qingshan Society keep an eye on the emperor's actions.

I have to say, that's quite a grand vision!

Thinking of this, Jiang Xiaobai clicked his tongue twice and said, "No wonder His Majesty, even if he likes this expert, doesn't dare to act recklessly!"

Yes, if she were just an ordinary woman, she would probably have been summoned to the palace long ago.

Even women from the martial arts world might not be able to truly stand in the way of imperial power.

But this one is different; he is the current sect leader of Cangfeng Mountain, a master who has entered the sect at the ninth rank.

Behind him are also edicts left by the royal ancestors.

Even if the emperor were to be so eager, at most he could only listen to music by the lake!

"By the way, Your Highness, what about this expert...?"

Jiang Xiaobai looked up at Xiao Jinfeng and asked curiously, "Why didn't she stay at Cangfeng Mountain? Why did she come to this royal garden?"

"Well, I'm not quite sure about that either."

Xiao Jinfeng shook his head: "However, this expert has been here for at least three years now."

"I only go back to Cangfeng Mountain occasionally."

"Three years?"

Jiang Xiaobai raised an eyebrow.

Yes, three years... that's quite a long time.

For the rest of the time, Jiang Xiaobai and Xiao Jinfeng chatted intermittently.

After chatting for a few minutes, Li Bingzhang turned his attention to Jiang Xiaobai's story manuscript.

Soon, exclamations of surprise followed.

"Young Master Jiang!"

Half an hour later, on the Qingshan Society's side, an old man finally raised his head and looked at Jiang Xiaobai: "These stories are indeed extremely exciting!"

"We'll arrange the book publication as soon as possible, but... we'll have to ask Prince Jiang to finish the remaining manuscripts!"

That's right, they're all eager to read it, and they don't know what to do with the people who like it after it's published.

Even if they keep chasing after the Green Robe Society every day, demanding more.

The Green Robe Society bore this burden, so naturally they couldn't let... Jiang Xiaobai relax.

"rest assured!"

Jiang Xiaobai smiled and nodded: "I will continue writing later."

With that, Jiang Xiaobai stood up and said, "Let's leave it at that for today. If anything happens later, you can send someone directly to the Marquis's residence to inform him."

"Of course, of course!"

Upon seeing this, several elderly members of the Green Robe Society also stood up.

"etc!"

Xiao Jinfeng's voice rang out, and he looked at Jiang Xiaobai and said, "I really like your wine, so... save me as much as you have."

"From now on, once it's brewed, send it to me!"

Indeed, he still savors the taste of this strong liquor and insists on keeping several jars.

"Ha ha!"

Jiang Xiaobai laughed heartily and said, "It's rare that the Fourth Prince likes it, but... I'm afraid we can't leave all the wine for the Prince today!"

Yes, most of this first batch of wine was intended for distribution.

If it's just the prince's family, they might not be able to thrive in the future!

"Let's keep as much as we can."

Xiao Jinfeng did not make things difficult for him.

"No problem!"

Jiang Xiaobai responded and led the way outside.

Xiao Jinfeng saw him off briefly for a few steps, then stayed behind.

After all, given his status, being able to escort him a few steps is already a great favor.

The Green Robe Society escorted Jiang Xiaobai and the others all the way to the outside of the garden.

After the members of the Green Robe Society turned and went inside, Jiang Xiaobai looked at Zhang Xinnian and then gestured to him.

Zhang Xinnian naturally understood what was going on. He turned around, waved his hand, and continued to serve wine to Qingshan Zuilou.

Jiang Xiaobai, on the other hand, had a brief chat with Li Bingzhang.

After Zhang Xinnian finished delivering the wine, Li Bingzhang glanced at Jiang Xiaobai and said, "Xiaobai, you can get back to your work now. I'll take Zhiwei with me!"

That's right, Jiang Xiaobai may still be busy, and his daughter doesn't have the same stamina as Tang Ningshuang.

Therefore, going back with him is undoubtedly the safest option.

"good!"

Jiang Xiaobai nodded and glanced at Li Zhiwei.

At this moment, Jiang Xiaobai couldn't help but smile.

Yes, although Li Zhiwei was wearing a veil, he could still see a hint of reluctance in her eyes.

Jiang Xiaobai smiled immediately, looked at Li Zhiwei, and said softly, "Be careful on your way back. I'll come find you when I have time!"

"Um!"

Li Zhiwei responded softly before following Li Bingzhang into the carriage.

Jiang Xiaobai personally saw them off until the Prime Minister's carriage gradually disappeared into the distance before turning his gaze away.

"Your Highness!"

At this moment, Zhang Xinnian stepped forward: "Then we..."

"Keep delivering to the bars!"

Jiang Xiaobai said, "If you're not convinced, then let's fight!"

"Alright!"

Zhang Xinnian was invigorated and led his troops from the Marquis's mansion away in a grand procession.

After Zhang Xinnian left, Tang Ningshuang looked at Jiang Xiaobai and asked, "Shall we go back? Or where should we go?"

"Let's go to Guanlan Tower, they're still waiting for my reply!"

Jiang Xiaobai's eyes flashed with a sharp light as he said, "Let's give them an answer today!"

After saying that, Jiang Xiaobai led Tang Ningshuang back to the carriage they had come from.

Just as Jiang Xiaobai was about to get into the car, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a figure in white standing on the roof not far away.

Jiang Xiaobai's heart skipped a beat, and he immediately looked up, but the roof was empty, with nothing at all.

Only a few leaves were swept away by the wind and fell.

Ok?

Jiang Xiaobai stood there, feeling a chill run down his spine.

A ghost in broad daylight?!
