Making you a son-in-law is not about making you conquer the world.

"Ah..." A meaningful cry came from Yuchi Xiang's room.

Jiang Yunying could no longer contain herself and was about to rush in with her sword, fearing that Yuchi Xiang would be killed by Zhang Hongyuan.

"This voice... it sounds somewhat similar to the one in the short film?" Lin Ping abruptly pulled Jiang Yunying back, deciding to continue observing.

The situation inside the room was somewhat chaotic. After being whipped, Yu Chixiang not only did not grimace in pain, but instead looked extremely pleased. Then, Yu Chixiang finally launched his long-planned attack, lunging forward with his entire body.

Then... its limbs wrapped around Zhang Hongyuan's body like an octopus, and finally it opened its blood-red maw.

"This guy is ruthless. Is he planning to bite through Zhang Hongyuan's carotid artery?" Lin Ping admired him greatly and wished that Yuchi Xiang would kill Zhang Hongyuan directly.

However, what happened next was quite shocking.

Just when Lin Ping thought Yu Chixiang was about to get serious, he actually... playfully stuck out his tongue.

puff……

Lin Ping clutched his chest with both hands, feeling like he'd been hit with a million-point attack. He hurriedly turned off his X-ray vision, afraid that the high-energy scene would blind his titanium alloy dog ​​eyes.

"It really is daytime clothing... Wife, let's go, this is too much..."

Lin Ping was so aggrieved that he almost cried. If he had known this would happen, he shouldn't have come. He didn't like to break up a couple.

"How dare they bully my husband! I'll go and chop them up right now!" Jiang Yunying said angrily, genuinely believing that Lin Ping had been wronged, and not even caring about the success or failure of the plan.

Lin Ping had seen countless films and naturally knew the extent of their relationship. He couldn't possibly let Jiang Yunying see such an offensive scene.

From the moment Yuchi Xiang stuck out his tongue, Lin Ping knew the plan had failed. The two were definitely gay, so how could he possibly reveal the prefect's crimes?

This was Lin Ping's first defeat, a defeat that defied all comprehension. He could only willingly admit: "I concede, I concede wholeheartedly..."

Lin Ping suddenly threw himself into Jiang Yunying's arms and burst into tears, choking out, "My wife, hold me tight, let me feel the warmth of a woman, make me straighter than steel, I don't want to become gay..."

Although this was Lin Ping's way of taking advantage of the situation, it also proved his inner fear. In the past two weeks since he transmigrated, he has increasingly felt that some men have clear eyes and pleasant voices, and his straight steel bars are developing in the direction of hooks...

“Husband…” Jiang Yunying’s face darkened, and her icy gaze startled Lin Ping, who scurried away to the base of the wall in embarrassment…

That's right, he couldn't escape. He even had to wait for Jiang Yunying on purpose, his heart constantly calling out, "Little Li, I miss you. You're still the gentlest one!"

The entire plan was designed by Lin Ping. Now that he says it failed, then it has failed. Jiang Yunying didn't ask any more questions. She roughly grabbed Lin Ping by the collar and climbed over the wall. Lin Ping, who was having difficulty breathing, coughed a few times. His feelings for women immediately diminished.

At this moment, with Li Mingxuan's bombardment of propaganda, this murder case is also entering its final stage.

The city lord's mansion was naturally unaffected, but the Jiangcheng prefect was praised by the people.

When the deceased's actual family members arrived upon hearing the news, there was not much crying, indicating that they had been prepared for this situation.

The thousands of people who had been surrounding the city lord's residence dispersed, and Lin Ping and the others returned to the city lord's mansion.

Two things surprised Lin Ping this time. First, the relationship between Zhang Hongyuan and Yuchi Xiang was something he hadn't expected.

Secondly, Xia Linglong's stance was something he couldn't figure out.

Logically speaking, the reason why the power of the city lord's mansion was gradually weakened was because it was restricted by the monarch. The prefect of Jiangcheng should belong to the monarch's camp, or even be a sharp sword of the other side. However, as a captain of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, Xia Linglong had no reason not to help the prefect of Jiangcheng.

Therefore, Lin Ping suspected that Xia Linglong had an even bigger conspiracy.

Jiang Yunying didn't quite understand this either. She only knew that the Embroidered Uniform Guard would come to inspect once a year for about half a month. If Xia Linglong left on her own after ten days or half a month, they wouldn't have to think too much about it. But if she continued to stay, they would have to be on guard.

After this incident, Jiang Yunying did not boast to Lin Ping in front of the city lord, fearing that the fellow would say something shameless again.

Now, Jiang Yunying has figured it out. Lin Ping intends to retain his status as a son-in-law and has no ambition. As long as Lin Ping doesn't break through her defenses, the two of them won't have any offspring, and there will be no way for him to compete with Jiang Yunyu for the power of the city lord's mansion.

Although the crisis has been averted, everyone in the City Lord's Mansion is still on edge and has to be extremely vigilant.

In the past, Jiang Yunying would have felt even more emboldened, but this time it was the opposite.

She seemed to have found someone to rely on; as long as she protected this enigmatic husband, the city lord's mansion would not be in any major trouble.

As night fell, Xiao Hui came over to serve him with a resentful look on her face.

Her resentment stemmed not from fear that Lin Ping would lay a hand on her, but from fear that he would not lay a hand on her.

It's not Xiao Hui's "work" time yet, so Jiang Yunying must have sent her here ahead of time.

Jiang Yunying had two purposes. First, she wanted Xiao Hui to have more contact with Lin Ping, so that she might learn something useful.

Secondly, Jiang Yunying hoped that Xiao Hui would have a child soon, so that Lin Ping could stay longer.

"What issue does the son-in-law want to discuss with Xiaohui this time?" Xiaohui asked resentfully, clearly wanting to take action rather than talk.

Lin Ping blushed, and the few dirty jokes he had prepared were swallowed back down.

Experienced drivers always make sure their jokes are timely and appropriate; if they just chat without any context, it would be a bit awkward, and Lin Ping felt that he was letting down his advanced driver's license.

Therefore, forcing a joke into this awkward atmosphere will only make it more cringeworthy.

"Xiao Hui, how long have you been in the City Lord's Mansion?" Lin Ping asked seriously.

Catering to her preferences was Lin Ping's forte. Xiao Hui was able to become a first-class maid because she had quite a bit of experience, which was probably what she was most proud of.

Sure enough, upon hearing this, Xiao Hui immediately perked up, raised her head and said proudly, "A full ten years!"

"Ten years?" Lin Ping was stunned. Judging from Xiao Hui's age, she was only fifteen or sixteen years old, which meant that she had been sold to the city lord's mansion when she was five or six years old.

"Then you must know everything about the City Lord's Mansion," Lin Ping praised.

Xiao Hui nodded proudly, thinking that the other party would ask some questions about Jiang Yunying and the city lord.

Lin Ping then asked, "Then name all the servants in the City Lord's Mansion..."

Xiao Hui almost cried when she heard this. It's not fair to bully people like this. But if the other party doesn't bully people, is he still a spendthrift?

Helpless, Xiao Hui pinched her fingertips together and began to count names with a wronged expression: "Old Dog Lin, Big Dog Lin, Second Dog Lin... Yang Guozhong, Little Dog Lin..."

Lin Ping asked these questions to waste time. He only listened to these names after Xiao Hui left on her own when it was time for her to "get off work".

But these very names stung Lin Ping's young heart, and he hurriedly asked, "Where were we?"

"Lin... Little Dog Lin..." Seeing Lin Ping's suddenly cold eyes, Xiao Hui thought she had done something wrong and answered tremblingly.

"One more!" Lin Ping shouted.

"Manager Yang, Yang Guozhong..." Xiao Hui was so frightened that she almost knelt on the ground, her voice trembling.
