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

At the entrance of the Marquis's residence.

At this moment, a large number of servants gathered here, all looking up at the newly replaced plaque with excited expressions.

Undoubtedly, the elevation of the Zhenbei Marquis's Mansion to the Zhenguo Duke's Mansion was an honor for them.

After that, when I go out and talk to people, I'll feel more confident!

"Oh, the young master is here!"

At that moment, someone spoke up, and all the servants present looked up.

Jiang Xiaobai led Tang Ningshuang and the Princess out of the mansion.

"Greetings, Your Highness!"

Respectful voices rang out one after another.

"Hehe, you're welcome!"

Jiang Xiaobai smiled and responded, while also looking up at the newly replaced plaque.

Looking at the four large characters "Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion", a slight smile appeared on Jiang Xiaobai's face.

I have to say, the new signboard looks amazing now!

After watching for a while, Jiang Xiaobai finally turned his gaze away and walked towards the carriage: "Let's go, let's go meet that princess!"

"Your Highness, if you ask me, since the Princess of Beiyu framed you, you shouldn't have gone to her!"

As he boarded the carriage, Zhang Xinnian couldn't help but mutter something to himself.

"What do you know!"

After Jiang Xiaobai sat down in the carriage, a smile played on his lips. "They've helped us so much; we should at least go and thank them!"

After hearing this, Zhang Xinnian didn't dare to say anything more. Only after making sure the three of them were seated did he crack the whip.

With a neighing sound, the carriage slowly drove away from the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion, heading towards the Honglu Temple.

……

An hour later, the carriage stopped outside the Honglu Temple.

Jiang Xiaobai lifted the carriage curtain and immediately saw the Imperial Guards on duty there.

As Jiang Xiaobai led the way down from the carriage, the expressions of the imperial guards present changed simultaneously. Then, they all clasped their hands in greeting and said, "We greet Young Master Jiang!"

Yesterday's commotion naturally spread throughout their Imperial Guard.

Moreover, the Marquis of Zhenbei's mansion has now become the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion.

They certainly wouldn't dare to be negligent!

Jiang Xiaobai waved his hand gently after reading it, then looked at Zhang Xinnian and said, "Xinnian, you can stay in the carriage!"

After giving his instructions, Jiang Xiaobai led Tang Ningshuang and the Princess inside.

At this moment, beside the lake at Honglu Temple.

Helian Zhaoyue was sitting under the pavilion, holding fish food in her hand, scattering it little by little into the lake.

A hint of resentment still lingered on her delicate face.

She still hasn't recovered from what happened yesterday.

Despite the meticulous planning, Jiang Xiaobai and Jiang Jingcheng were successfully imprisoned, and Jiang Jingxuan even obtained a handwritten order from the Zhenbei Marquis's mansion.

But the result?

Overnight, Jiang Jingxuan became a rebel.

Jiang Jingcheng and Jiang Xiaobai not only emerged unscathed, but were also promoted from Marquis of Zhenbei to Duke of Zhenguo!

Despite their best efforts, Bei Yu failed to drag the Jiang family down; instead, they helped push the Jiang family forward!

How could she possibly accept this?!

"Princess, princess!"

Just then, hurried footsteps sounded, and Teng Zixiu walked quickly in from outside.

"What's wrong?"

As Helian Zhaoyue frowned, she looked up.

Teng Zixiu approached, his face grim, and said, "That bastard Jiang Xiaobai is here!"

"Jiang Xiaobai?"

Upon hearing this name, Helian Zhaoyue immediately stopped what she was doing, gritted her teeth, and slowly stood up, saying, "Hmph, this guy will definitely be extremely smug if he comes over now!!"

That's right, with Jiang Xiaobai's cheeky personality, how could he not show off after gaining such a huge advantage?!

No sooner had Helian Zhaoyue finished speaking than a burst of laughter came from afar.

"Hahahahaha!"

"Hahahahaha!"

The laughter grew closer and louder.

As Helian Zhaoyue listened, the fish food in her hand was crushed to powder once again.

Following the sound of laughter, one could immediately see Jiang Xiaobai leading Tang Ningshuang and the Princess, walking towards them from a distance.

Moreover, with each step closer, Jiang Xiaobai's laughter grew louder.

It was as if they were afraid the other person wouldn't hear them.

"hateful!"

Helian Zhaoyue's chest rose and fell slightly as she forcefully suppressed her anger and sat down again.

ignore!

That's right, as long as she ignores him, Jiang Xiaobai can't do anything about it!

Thinking of this, Helian Zhaoyue picked up the fish food again and scattered it into the lake.

Teng Zixiu stood to the side, watching Jiang Xiaobai get closer and closer, and her face also turned gloomy.

Soon, Jiang Xiaobai and the others arrived at the pavilion.

"Ha ha ha ha!"

Seeing that Helian Zhaoyue ignored him, Jiang Xiaobai laughed twice more, then sat down by the corridor and said, "Sigh, I don't know why, but I'm in a strangely beautiful mood today!"

As he spoke, Jiang Xiaobai's gaze swept over Teng Zixiu, then turned to Helian Zhaoyue.

"I imagine my dear brother Teng, and my dear princess, are also extremely happy today, aren't they?"

Screw you!

Teng Zixiu muttered to himself, his face growing even uglier.

Helian Zhaoyue ignored it, but the rise and fall of her chest became even more obvious.

"Ha ha!"

Upon seeing this, Jiang Xiaobai couldn't help but laugh again: "Your Highness, actually, I came here today specifically to thank you!"

"Thank you so much, Princess, for your intervention. You've transformed my Zhenbei Marquis's residence into the Zhenguo Duke's residence!"

"Ah, I was so angry back then, thinking the princess was targeting my Zhenbei Marquis's mansion!"

Jiang Xiaobai said, his face full of emotion, "Looking back now, I realize how narrow-minded I was!"

"I never expected that Your Highness would actually be helping us! You're being too kind!"

"Jiang Xiaobai!"

Helian Zhaoyue could no longer hold back. She suddenly stood up, her eyes fixed on Jiang Xiaobai, and gritted her teeth, saying, "This time, you won!"

"What's there to be proud of? Who knows who'll win next time!"

"what?"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Xiaobai looked surprised: "You're actually planning to help us? That's so kind of you!"

"Besides, have I become complacent?"

As he spoke, Jiang Xiaobai burst into laughter again: "Hahahaha, am I smug?"

"I was just having a laugh, hahaha..."

"..."

Looking at Jiang Xiaobai's smiling face, Helian Zhaoyue felt a surge of anger rising to her head.

To be honest, right now she really wanted to pull out a knife and chop this bastard to pieces!

"Excuse me!"

Jiang Xiaobai tried hard to suppress his smile and said earnestly, "Please believe me, Your Highness, my smile... is absolutely not a joke at all!"

"It's just pure joy, hahaha!"

Finally, Jiang Xiaobai burst into laughter again.

Helian Zhaoyue gritted her teeth, stared at Jiang Xiaobai for a while, but finally forced herself to suppress her anger and sat back down by the pavilion: "Oh, then the young master is quite funny!"

With that, Helian Zhaoyue picked up the fish food again and continued feeding the fish in the lake, no longer glancing at Jiang Xiaobai.

Seeing Helian Zhaoyue's expression, Jiang Xiaobai said again, "By the way, Princess!"

"Are you wearing the same little white dress with embroidered details as that night?"

Ok?

Helian Zhaoyue's body stiffened for a moment, then she slowly turned her head, glaring at Jiang Xiaobai through gritted teeth.

"Don't misunderstand!"

Seeing that look, Jiang Xiaobai said, "I was just curious, just asking!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Xiaobai's expression suddenly changed: "Hey, hey, hey, a gentleman uses words, not fists!"

"Jiang Xiaobai!"

Helian Zhaoyue screamed and pounced on Jiang Xiaobai: "I'll bite you to death!!"
