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

"Martyrs' Shrine?"

Upon hearing Jiang Xiaobai's words, Helian Zhaoyue frowned and looked at Xiao Jinxuan: "Your Majesty, what do you mean by this?"

Martyrs' Shrine?

This was the first time she had ever heard of this name.

But... based on what Jiang Xiaobai just said, Helian Zhaoyue had a vague premonition that things weren't going well.

"It means..."

Before Xiao Jinxuan could speak, Jiang Xiaobai's voice rang out: "This Martyrs' Shrine is a place to enshrine the heroic souls of soldiers who died in battle in the Northern Frontier!"

"Once the shrine to the fallen heroes is completed, I, the Crown Prince, will personally lead your two national delegations to offer incense there!"

As he spoke, Jiang Xiaobai looked at Helian Zhaoyue and said, "Is that clear enough?"

"impossible!"

Upon hearing this, Helian Zhaoyue's face instantly turned cold, and she clenched her hands tightly: "I will absolutely not agree to this!"

Indeed, the soldiers of Dahua who died in the northern border also had the blood of the Beiyu people on their hands.

Now, let her, the daughter of the King of Beiyu, lead the delegation to offer incense.

What is this?

To acknowledge defeat in the Battle of Beiyu?

Should we make Beiyu bow down to the fallen soldiers of Dahua?

How could she possibly agree to such a thing!

The more Helian Zhaoyue thought about it, the uglier her expression became. She looked at Xiao Jinxuan again and said, "Your Majesty of Great Hua, aren't you going too far in bullying us?"

Xiao Jinxuan clearly did not expect that Jiang Xiaobai would bring up this matter directly in front of the delegations of the two countries.

Just then, Jiang Xiaobai's voice rang out again: "Heh, this isn't bullying, it's just coercion at most!"

"you!"

Helian Zhaoyue glared at Jiang Xiaobai, her eyes practically spitting fire: "We swear we will never submit!"

"Whatever you want!"

Jiang Xiaobai said calmly, "However... believe me, you will eventually go!"

"OK!"

Helian Zhaoyue, enraged, laughed coldly: "Then the young master can wait and see!"

After saying this, Helian Zhaoyue stood up and prepared to leave with the delegation.

But just as he took a step forward, Jiang Xiaobai's voice came from behind: "Wait, this young master has something else to say!"

Helian Zhaoyue stopped in her tracks, her face cold.

This guy... is he never going to stop?

As she was thinking this, Jiang Xiaobai raised her head and looked at Xiao Jinxuan on the throne: "Your Majesty, please do justice for Teng Zixiu!"

As he spoke, Jiang Xiaobai glanced in Teng Zixiu's direction and said, "Teng Zixiu, as a guest of Beiyu Academy, has publicly set up a fighting arena at Zuixianlou!"

"And I, as the challenger, actually killed their people from Beiyu in public!"

"That wouldn't have been bad, but when Teng Zixiu went to the Dali Temple to file a complaint, that guy Pei Shen actually detained them for three whole days!"

"and……"

Jiang Xiaobai paused, then said, "They didn't even give them a single bite to eat!"

Upon hearing this, the officials present were all taken aback.

Teng Zixiu, standing in the delegation, looked at Jiang Xiaobai with a face full of shock.

Isn't this... one of his words?

How did Jiang Xiaobai get stolen from him?!

To Teng Zixiu's astonishment, a low murmur of discussion suddenly arose in the court.

Many officials looked at Jiang Xiaobai with increasingly strange expressions.

What is Jiang Xiaobai doing, deliberately courting trouble for himself?

Even Pei Shen was dragged into it?

Teng Zixiu stood there, her brows furrowed, feeling that something was amiss.

Helian Zhaoyue turned her head and looked at Teng Zixiu beside her.

After she picked up Teng Zixiu and the others, Teng Zixiu recounted in detail what had happened in the past few days.

She had decided to sue, but she was so angry with Jiang Xiaobai that she completely forgot about it for a moment.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Xiaobai took the initiative to step forward.

And she even helped Teng Zixiu file a complaint?

So, let alone Teng Zixiu, even she was a little confused.

"There's really such a thing?"

While Xiao Jinxuan was surprised, his gaze fell on Teng Zixiu.

After regaining his senses, Teng Zixiu immediately stepped forward, cupped his hands, and said, "Your Majesty, this is indeed true!"

"Jiang Xiaobai killed three of my Beiyu Academy guests at the martial arts arena, and the Dali Temple, without even investigating the matter, imprisoned the three of us for three days!"

"He hasn't had a drop of water in the past three days!"

At this point, anger surged again on Teng Zixiu's face: "Your Majesty, we beg you... to do justice for us!"

Xiao Jinxuan frowned as he listened.

To be honest, he didn't understand Jiang Xiaobai's move either.

Why not just tell everyone all of this? Wouldn't that just be asking for trouble?

After a moment of contemplation, Xiao Jinxuan's gaze returned to Jiang Xiaobai: "Jiang Xiaobai, do you have anything to say?"

"have!"

Jiang Xiaobai nodded: "Your Majesty, I believe... Teng Zixiu is falsely accusing an official of our court!"

"Jiang Xiaobai!"

Upon hearing this, Teng Zixiu's expression immediately changed: "What do you mean by that?"

"Could it be... that your claim of killing my Beiyu Academy guest was a lie? That the Dali Temple imprisoned us for three days, was also a lie?"

"No, no!"

Jiang Xiaobai shook his head: "Of course all of this is true!"

"Then what makes you say I'm making false accusations?"

Teng Zixiu stared intently at Jiang Xiaobai.

"Because I believe..."

Jiang Xiaobai's lips curled slightly: "You deliberately made me kill that guest, so you could sue me!"
