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

"Didn't this guy just have lunch not long ago?"

Tang Ningshuang looked at Jiang Xiaobai's hurried departure with a puzzled expression.

and also……

Why is this guy suddenly running so fast?

But Tang Ningshuang didn't think much of it and turned around to go back to her room to change her clothes.

Hey, changing clothes?

Tang Ningshuang paused, looked down at her long dress, and then something occurred to her.

Her face visibly turned bright red.

"Hey, Jiang Xiaobai, you stop right there!"

Amidst screams, Tang Ningshuang, sword in one hand and clutching her skirt with the other, angrily chased after him.

"Don't worry, I absolutely, absolutely, absolutely won't kill you..."

……

The next day, early in the morning.

The tightly closed gates of the Princess's residence slowly opened.

Four figures emerged from the mansion one after the other.

These four people were Xiao Qingxiu and the three heirs of Dingyuan Prefecture.

"Jiang Xiaobai, I'll remember you!"

Xiao Qingxiu stared at the closed door, his teeth grinding together.

Fuck!

As the young prince of the Eighth Prince's Mansion, he was treated with utmost respect wherever he went.

Now he's been locked up in the Princess's residence for three whole days!

During these three days, he tried to leave several times, but was stopped by the people from the Princess's residence.

Even though the Eighth Prince's Mansion sent people to negotiate after learning the news, it was to no avail.

That was so frustrating!

He naturally blamed all of this on Jiang Xiaobai.

That's right. If Jiang Xiaobai hadn't framed him at the banquet that day, he wouldn't have been detained by the Princess.

How could it have fallen to such a state?

He's determined to get his revenge!

"Young Prince!"

Li Jingxing stood to the side, his face also filled with anger, and said, "We must teach Jiang Xiaobai a lesson!"

Don't worry!

Xiao Qingxiu turned around, a cold smile appearing on his face: "Isn't the Jiang family in the liquor business?"

At this point, Xiao Qingxiu narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "My beverage business is also about to launch!"

"Hehe, now I only need to return to Yipinlou and make a few small adjustments, and my wine and spirits can fill the entire capital in a short time!"

"Furthermore, with the influence of my Yipinlou restaurant, all the restaurants in the capital will boycott the Jiang family's alcoholic beverages!"

"Then... humph, I'll see who the Jiang family will be able to sell their liquor to then!"

As he spoke, Xiao Qingxiu's smile grew even colder: "This time, I'll teach him a lesson he'll never forget!"

"good!"

Li Jingxing's expression brightened: "Then I'll be waiting for the young prince's good news!"

"Alright, Jingxing, let's go back now!"

Li Jingfeng interrupted the two, gave a brief nod to Xiao Qingxiu, and then led Li Jingren away into the distance.

That's right, he has no time to get involved in the affairs between Xiao Qingxiu and Jiang Xiaobai.

All three Concealed Edge Tokens were lost because of a banquet!

He still doesn't know how to explain this situation.

Moreover, the day of the founding of the Cangfeng Sect is drawing ever closer.

Before that, he had to find a way to get three more Concealed Edge Tokens.

Otherwise, the three of them... might really miss this opportunity.

"Young Prince, farewell!"

Seeing that Li Jingfeng and Li Jingren had already gone far away, Li Jingxing could only cup his hands in greeting to Xiao Qingxiu and quickly follow them.

Xiao Qingxiu stood there, watching the three figures gradually walk away, his face still gloomy.

A moment later, Xiao Qingxiu came to the side of the street and stopped an approaching carriage.

The coachman was forced to stop, his face immediately showing displeasure. He frowned and said, "Young man, this carriage already has an owner..."

Before he could finish speaking, a silver ingot flew over and landed in the coachman's arms.

The coachman glanced down, his furrowed brows instantly relaxing, and his eyes brightening: "Young master, where are you going?"

"Yipinlou!"

Xiao Qingxiu uttered three words indifferently, lifted the curtain, and sat down in the carriage.

"Okay!"

The coachman nodded respectfully, flicked his whip, and the carriage quickly drove off.

Sitting in the carriage, Xiao Qingxiu could still vividly recall the humiliation he had suffered over the past three days.

The angrier he got, the more he punched the carriage.

……

Half an hour later, the carriage slowly came to a stop outside Yipinlou.

Xiao Qingxiu lifted the curtain and jumped down from the carriage.

Looking up at the familiar Yipinlou restaurant, Xiao Qingxiu finally felt a little better.

Just then, a surprised voice rang out from the side: "Hey, isn't that the young prince?"

"You mean... you've been released?"

Ok?

Upon hearing that familiar voice, Xiao Qingxiu's smile froze instantly.

Turning my head, I saw another carriage parked right in front of Yipinlou.

After the curtain was opened, Jiang Xiaobai stepped down from inside and looked at him with a face full of surprise.

Of course, Jiang Xiaobai also didn't expect things to happen so coincidentally.

He had originally thought that Xiao Qingxiu would most likely be released today, which was why he rushed over early.

Unexpectedly, we bumped into each other at the door.

For a moment, Jiang Xiaobai could no longer suppress the smile on his face.

With a smile, Jiang Xiaobai immediately led Tang Ningshuang and the Princess toward Xiao Qingxiu.

"Jiang Xiaobai, don't be so smug!"

Upon seeing Jiang Xiaobai approach, Xiao Qingxiu's face instantly turned ashen. He said, "Our relationship has only just begun!"

"Don't worry, I'll make sure you have a day when you need me!"

"OK!"

Jiang Xiaobai smiled faintly and said, "Then this young master... will wait and see!"

"you……"

Seeing Jiang Xiaobai's nonchalant expression, Xiao Qingxiu's anger deepened. Finally, he snorted coldly and said, "By the way, I still don't know what Young Master Jiang is doing at my Yipinlou so early in the morning?"

"Your Yipinlou?"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Xiaobai couldn't help but smile.

However, Jiang Xiaobai didn't rush to expose him, and said with a smile, "This young master has already developed the perfume!"

"Therefore, I plan to have Yipinlou gather the representatives from the eight major merchants to discuss this perfume business in detail!"

"Ha, you actually managed to create a perfume balm?"

Xiao Qingxiu paused for a moment, then burst into laughter as if he had heard a joke: "Then Young Master Jiang, we'll have to have a serious talk!"

After saying that, Xiao Qingxiu's face was full of mockery.

This is Yipinlou. Even if people from the eight major merchant houses came here, they would only give Xiao Qingxiu face!

Therefore, Jiang Xiaobai has undoubtedly... brought shame upon himself!

If that's the case, then this time, he can't be blamed.

After all, this is his territory.

With this thought in mind, Xiao Qingxiu couldn't help but chuckle...

……

Brothers, no need to wait for the rest, let's take a break today, we'll start at midnight!
