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

"This is my petition; I humbly request Your Excellency to review it!"

Teng Zixiu did not notice anything unusual. As she spoke, she took out the petition from her bosom and handed it to Li Bingzhang with both hands.

As Li Bingzhang took the document to examine it, Teng Zixiu continued, "Your Excellency, we are guests of the Imperial Academy, and we have come to your Great Hua for mutual exchange!"

"And the young prince murdered a guest of my Northern Yu Academy during the martial arts tournament; his heart can be described as extremely wicked!"

"It's truly disheartening how your company, Dahua, treats its guests!!"

The more Teng Zixiu spoke, the deeper his anger became: "If this matter were to reach Beiyu, our king would surely be furious!"

"Um?"

As Li Bingzhang responded, he noticed something, looked up, and asked in surprise, "You were detained at the Dali Temple for three days?"

"That's right!"

Hearing this, Teng Zixiu became even angrier, her body trembling: "We just want to sue Jiang Xiaobai!"

"But your Great Hua's Dali Temple didn't even ask us why, and just threw us into jail!"

"And for three whole days, they didn't give us a single bite to eat!"

"Oh……"

Jiang Xiaobai, standing to the side, burst out laughing.

He really didn't know about this.

However, the only one capable of doing something like this must be Pei Shen.

I have to say, this guy is awesome!

Upon hearing the laughter, Teng Zixiu's face instantly turned bright red. He looked at Li Bingzhang and bowed respectfully: "Therefore, we beg Your Excellency, Prime Minister, to avenge us!"

"this……"

Li Bingzhang looked at the complaint in his hand, then at Jiang Xiaobai, his expression full of helplessness: "Xiaobai!"

"Do you have anything to say about this?"

"without!"

Jiang Xiaobai shook his head, looking at Li Bingzhang with a serious expression, and said, "Your Excellency, please decide on a punishment for me!"

conviction?

Teng Zixiu and the other two were stunned for a moment, and looked at Jiang Xiaobai in surprise.

Indeed, they really didn't expect that Jiang Xiaobai would actually ask to be convicted.

However, they quickly figured it out.

Jiang Xiaobai dared to speak like that because he was certain that Li Bingzhang would not convict him!

That's why I'm deliberately putting on airs here!

"Then tell me!"

After hearing Jiang Xiaobai's words, Li Bingzhang's face showed a hint of curiosity: "What crime would be appropriate to convict you of?"

"This... is a capital offense!"

Jiang Xiaobai said earnestly, "After all, I killed their retainer, so it's only right that I exchange my life for theirs!"

"capital offense?"

Li Bingzhang looked startled.

Zhang Xinnian and Tang Ningshuang, who were following Jiang Xiaobai, also showed a change in expression.

Is Jiang Xiaobai serious?

Teng Zixiu and the other two were also somewhat skeptical, but their eyes still lit up.

Has Jiang Xiaobai lost his mind?

They actually let Li Bingzhang sentence him to death?!

Although they felt something was off, a glimmer of hope still rose in their hearts.

Indeed, even if Jiang Xiaobai was certain that Li Bingzhang would not be convicted, his words were still far too arrogant.

Li Bingzhang must be angry, right?

Just as the three were thinking this, Jiang Xiaobai's voice rang out calmly: "Yes, sentence me to death!"

Then, Jiang Xiaobai paused, "However... it will be implemented a hundred years from now!"

"Ha ha!"

Lin Fengshuo, who was standing to the side, was the first to react, and even though he was usually very composed, he couldn't help but burst into laughter.

Tang Ningshuang stood to the side, gently biting her red lips, her gaze towards Jiang Xiaobai filled with helplessness.

This guy's way of speaking really leaves you breathless!

The princess originally wanted to raise her hand as well, but as soon as she put her hand under her hat, she remembered something and quickly put it down again.

Then, through her straw hat, she glared fiercely at Jiang Xiaobai with her beautiful eyes.

This person... is really annoying!

She was genuinely worried that one day she might break her composure in front of Jiang Xiaobai!

"Hahaha!"

Zhang Xinnian didn't have so many concerns; he stood there and laughed without restraint.

Teng Zixiu stood there, her face turning pale and then red.

They had been imprisoned and starved for three days, and now they had finally arrived at the Prime Minister's residence.

And then... Jiang Xiaobai actually mocked them like that right in front of them?

"Your Majesty, Prime Minister!"

Teng Zixiu angrily exclaimed, "This person... this person is not only mocking us, but clearly mocking you too!"

"this……"

After hearing this, Li Bingzhang shook his head with a helpless smile. Just as he was about to speak, he suddenly heard hurried footsteps outside.

Soon, two figures walked in together from outside.

It was Li Zhiwei and Lin Qinrou.

Their appearance naturally attracted the attention of Teng Zixiu and his two companions.

When Teng Zixiu saw Li Zhiwei, his expression changed instantly.

Yes, he remembered this woman!

He was deeply impressed when Li Zhiwei lifted the curtain in the carriage.

Li Zhiwei then stood with Jiang Xiaobai again, and after the event, the group left together.

But now... why is this woman in the Prime Minister's residence?

When Li Zhiwei and Lin Qinrou walked in, they naturally noticed Teng Zixiu and the other two, and their expressions showed slight surprise.

But they didn't ask any more questions, and simply came over to Jiang Xiaobai.

"Knowledge is subtle!"

Upon seeing Li Zhiwei, Jiang Xiaobai's face immediately lit up with a smile: "Why did you two come here?"

"Is that even a question?"

Lin Qinrou smiled and said, "I couldn't wait to come as soon as I heard you were here!"

"No way!"

Upon hearing this, Li Zhiwei blushed deeply.

Jiang Xiaobai noticed Li Zhiwei's gaze, and his smile deepened.

"hehe!"

Li Bingzhang sat in the main seat, looked at the two of them, shook his head with a smile, and then looked at Teng Zixiu again: "Is there anything else?"

"If there's nothing else, you should hurry up and leave!"

what?

Teng Zixiu was stunned for a moment.

Should we leave quickly?

No, isn't it a big deal that he sued Jiang Xiaobai?

The complaint has been submitted; Jiang Xiaobai murdered the guests of Beiyu Academy, and the Dali Temple has imprisoned them for three days.

Is Li Bingzhang really going to let them go after such a serious matter?

"that is!"

Zhang Xinnian spoke up from the side, "My young master has already sentenced himself to death, what are you all still doing here?"

After saying that, Zhang Xinnian couldn't help but laugh twice more.

Teng Zixiu clasped her hands tightly.

A death sentence to be carried out a hundred years later?

It's better not to decide at all!

"Your Excellency, regarding this matter..."

Teng Zixiu looked at Li Bingzhang, about to continue speaking, but Li Bingzhang waved his hand, saying, "I cannot accept this petition!"

"Ah, why?"

Teng Zixiu frowned deeply.

Could it be that Li Bingzhang, as the current prime minister, is also wary of Jiang Xiaobai's family background?

"Because it's according to our Great China's rules!"

Li Bingzhang declared, "No punishment shall be imposed between relatives!"

"As for Xiao Bai... he's my future son-in-law, so this matter is beyond my control!"

Son-in-law?
