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

"Ha ha!"

As Jiang Xiaobai walked out of the Court of State Ceremonial, the smile on his face remained.

Seeing Helian Zhaoyue so angry, Jiang Xiaobai felt a sense of satisfaction.

Tang Ningshuang, standing beside him, glanced at Jiang Xiaobai with a strange expression but didn't say anything.

Although Jiang Xiaobai did indeed outsmart Helian Zhaoyue just now.

But it was Helian Zhaoyue who played the rogue trick first.

Since that's the case, there's nothing wrong with Jiang Xiaobai using some tricks to get the things back.

The eldest princess followed on the other side, a faint smile playing on her lips beneath her bamboo hat.

She shared the same idea as Tang Ningshuang.

Furthermore, although Jiang Xiaobai can be a bit of a smart aleck at times, his ability to adapt to changing circumstances is undeniably impressive.

However, it seems that Helian Zhaoyue was made to cry by Jiang Xiaobai, right?

That's right, as he walked away, he looked back once.

That's interesting, actually.

As a princess, she was actually made to cry by Jiang Xiaobai. If this gets back to Beiyu, it'll be quite a show!

In a way, she was also a princess.

But for her, no matter what, it was absolutely impossible for her to be so angry that she cried!

What's there to be so upset about?

……

And at this moment, there are pavilions and corridors by the lake.

Helian Zhaoyue stood there, tears streaming down her face.

She had already thrown all the fish food she was holding into the lake.

Teng Zixiu stood to the side, watching Helian Zhaoyue cry because of Jiang Xiaobai, and for a moment she didn't know how to comfort her.

In the end, he could only clench his hands tightly, thinking about how to teach Jiang Xiaobai a lesson.

But a moment later, Teng Zixiu deflated like a punctured balloon, and her shoulders slowly slumped.

That's right, he didn't feel anything when facing others; on the contrary, he was full of confidence.

But when he faced Jiang Xiaobai, he truly felt what it meant to be powerless!

It should be noted that they initially came to Dahua as guests, intending to severely suppress the younger generation of Dahua in both literary and martial arts.

By the way, let the Marquis of Zhenbei's mansion be humiliated in public!

As a result, after Jiang Xiaobai made his move, they themselves became the clowns!

Later, in the imperial court, he intended to use the incident of his family's quilts to pin a crime on Jiang Xiaobai.

But before he could truly subdue Jiang Xiaobai, he almost dragged Jiang Xiaobai down with him.

Later, they painstakingly laid out a grand scheme.

Helian Zhaoyue even personally intervened, successfully sending Jiang Xiaobai and his son Jiang Jingcheng to the palace prison.

Surely we'll win this time?

In just one day, not only was he released from prison, but the Marquis of Zhenbei's mansion was also promoted to the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion!

They targeted him time and time again, but Jiang Xiaobai defused the situation time and time again.

Not only can it resolve things, but it can also take a big bite out of them each time.

Anyone facing an opponent like Jiang Xiaobai would likely feel an absolute sense of powerlessness.

But he was baffled. How could such a scoundrel exist in this world?!

"Princess!"

Seeing that Helian Zhaoyue was crying harder and harder, Teng Zixiu could only bite the bullet and comfort her, "Please don't be too angry!"

"It's not worth getting angry at someone like Jiang Xiaobai!"

Helian Zhaoyue pursed her red lips and didn't speak, only wiping away her tears with her hands.

She actually understood the logic, but she just wouldn't accept it!

The more resentful they are, the more wronged they feel.

Especially just now, she felt like a fool, completely played by Jiang Xiaobai!

"Oh, Princess!"

Teng Zixiu spoke again, "We've only lost to him a few times, haven't we? We'll have another chance in the future..."

"Waaah..."

Upon hearing this, Helian Zhaoyue's tears fell even faster.

What do you mean... it's just that you lost a few times?

They haven't won a single game since they came to Dahua!

Upon seeing this, Teng Zixiu's expression froze, and in the end, he could only give a bitter smile and simply stopped talking.

He just stood there quietly, watching Helian Zhaoyue cry.

After a long while, Helian Zhaoyue's crying gradually subsided.

After wiping the corners of her eyes clean, she clasped her hands together tightly.

"Hmph, before leaving Dahua..."

Helian Zhaoyue gritted her teeth and said fiercely, "This princess must make that bastard Jiang Xiaobai suffer a loss!"

That's right, even if only once!

Otherwise, if she leaves Dahua like this, she's afraid she'll never be able to swallow this anger for the rest of her life!

No sooner had Helian Zhaoyue finished speaking than footsteps sounded again in the distance.

An old man walked briskly over from a distance.

It was that expert who had always been by Helian Zhaoyue's side.

"Princess!"

The old man arrived at the pavilion and respectfully said, "Your invited guest will arrive shortly!"

As they were talking, the old man noticed Helian Zhaoyue's reddened eyes and his expression froze for a moment.

Did the princess cry?

But he didn't need to think to know who did it!

Because when he returned, he happened to see Jiang Xiaobai and the others leaving.

The old man felt a little uncomfortable for a moment, but there was really nothing he could do at the moment.

In terms of strength, he did not believe that he was a match for the man wearing the straw hat.

As for his brain, he was even less capable, and could only sigh softly.

……

At this moment, at the entrance of the Honglu Temple.

As Jiang Xiaobai led Tang Ningshuang and the Princess out, they saw a luxurious carriage slowly approaching in the distance.

The carriage was decorated in an extremely luxurious manner, with many patterns carved on its body, and several guards followed it.

Soon, the carriage stopped not far from the Honglu Temple.

As the carriage curtain opened, a figure stepped out of the carriage first.

Ok?

Upon seeing this person, Jiang Xiaobai raised an eyebrow slightly.

He was familiar with this person.

It was Xiao Qingxiu!

Come to think of it, it had been a while since he had seen Xiao Qingxiu.

The last time I saw him was probably at Qinglou, right?

However, what is Xiao Qingxiu doing at the Honglu Temple at this time?

Are you here to see Helian Zhaoyue?

However, Xiao Qingxiu was, after all, a prince, and his status was somewhat sensitive.

Now, wouldn't it be a bit unreasonable for him to take the initiative to see Helian Zhaoyue?

Furthermore, is Xiao Qingxiu here representing himself or the royal family?

Or perhaps... the Eighth Prince?

Jiang Xiaobai was puzzled when he saw the carriage curtain lifted again, and another young man stepped down from the carriage.

This person appeared to be around the same age as Xiao Qingxiu, and was dressed in equally luxurious clothing, with an exquisite jade pendant hanging from his waist.

And his demeanor clearly indicated that he was no ordinary person.

Jiang Xiaobai looked at this person with some doubt.

Who is this person?

"Huh!"

Just then, Tang Ningshuang suddenly let out a soft "Eh," her expression clearly showing surprise.

"What's wrong?"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Xiaobai turned to look at Tang Ningshuang, raising an eyebrow slightly: "You know her?"
