The burly man kneeling on the ground broke out in a cold sweat. He naturally dared not reveal the other party's name, otherwise he would surely be retaliated against.

"You dare not say it? Then I'll say it for you!" Lin Ping's voice was fierce, as if he wanted to devour the other party. "However... when I say it, it will be your death day!"

The burly man collapsed to the ground with a thud, seemingly about to faint. He had naturally heard of Lin Ping's formidable reputation and knew his methods. Finally, he weakly said, "It's Yuchi Xiang..."

"It really is this guy. Since you want to be gay, then I'll make you suffer for the rest of your life and never be able to be the one to top again." A chill ran down Lin Ping's spine as he led Li Mingxuan and his entourage toward the Tongpan Prefecture. It was time to let them know that xiang was not tasty.

Lin Ping didn't bring any experts with him on this trip. The reason he was so calm was entirely because Lin Xiaomei was giving him courage.

When they arrived at the prefectural office, they were stopped by two gatekeepers. Before they could even announce their arrival, the two men were already lying dead at Lin Xiaomei's feet. This little girl's martial arts skills were truly impressive.

At this moment, Yu Chixiang and Zhang Hongyuan were entangled in the room, and the messy scene was somewhat indecent to look at.

"Don't worry, Young Master Zhang. After today, all the people in the city will demand justice from the City Lord's Mansion." Yu Chi Xiang's charming voice made Zhang Hongyuan feel all tingly, and he had no idea what was happening outside the door.

"Yuchi Xiang, get out here right now!" Lin Ping cursed, his imposing aura causing the servants to instinctively take a few steps back.

Since Yuchi Fen's death, the prestige of the Tongpan Prefecture has declined significantly. Most of the servants and maids have left, and those who remain would not have stayed to serve Yuchi Xiang, that beast, if it weren't for the need to earn a living.

Upon hearing Lin Ping's voice, both of them inside the room tensed up and opened the door in great fear.

Upon seeing Zhang Hongyuan, Lin Ping couldn't help but burst out laughing and exclaimed, "You guys continue, we'll watch the show!"

Zhang Hongyuan naturally understood Lin Ping's meaning, and his donkey-like face turned ashen.

"Lin Ping, what right do you have to trespass on private property!" Yu Chixiang said angrily, surprisingly having gained some common sense.

"Trespassing? Hmph! Today I'll make sure you're completely childless!" Lin Ping's anger was many times stronger than Yu Chixiang's.

To be honest, he didn't want to endure it anymore. Living cautiously for a while had been exhausting, and eliminating each enemy required a lot of scheming.

Now he's going to take action openly and honestly.

In any case, the prefect is too busy to deal with his own problems and won't turn against the city lord's mansion for the sake of a mere Yuchi Xiang.

Furthermore, Lin Ping had already figured out the prefect's purpose and learned from Xia Linglong that the king would not tolerate his behavior and would even hold him accountable.

Therefore, Xiao Chengyou is now just a tortoise, forced to curl up in its shell, and dares not declare war on the City Lord's Mansion.

"Little sister, trample that bastard Zhang Hongyuan under your feet!" Lin Ping shouted.

Before the words had even finished, Lin Xiaomei had already appeared in front of Zhang Hongyuan, kicking him to the ground and stomping her heel hard on his chest.

"Little Li, go and cut off Yuchi Xiang's head, give him a chance to get rid of him once and for all," Lin Ping said with a wicked smile.

In this respect, Leonardo DiCaprio was quite skilled, sneakily approaching his opponent with a small knife in hand.

Yu Chixiang wanted to resist, but was subdued by Da Shuang and Er Shuang and obediently lay on the ground waiting to be cut.

"Lin Ping, what right do you have to cut me? You have no respect for the laws of the Wu Kingdom!" Yu Chixiang struggled desperately, thinking that Lin Ping would stop there.

"Stealing salt from the city lord's mansion and daring to claim innocence? You deserve to be chopped up!" Lin Ping replied sharply, making Yu Chixiang's defeat clear.

"Just you wait and see, I guarantee I won't leave a single trace!" Li Mingxuan swung the knife in his hand, and blood splattered everywhere, accompanied by the scream of a castrated animal.

"Ah!" Zhang Hongyuan cried out in anguish, as if he had lost the most precious thing.

Lin Ping was stunned for a moment, muttering, "So Yuchi Xiang is the top..."

"Sigh..." Lin Ping felt bad thinking about how he had broken up a couple. Who told them to not only be gay, but also switch roles and change positions?

Lin Ping, in a display of great compassion, left behind a bottle of hemostatic medicine, then turned and left, leaving the two heartbroken lovers to weep in each other's arms.

Perhaps, after today, the two will go their separate ways, as this relationship has come to an end.

"Lin Ping, one day I will tear you to pieces!" Zhang Hongyuan gritted his teeth, even contemplating tearing Lin Ping apart with his bare hands.

Before returning to Mingyue Tower, Lin Ping went to Anletang and told Xu Guangyuan about the antidote.

Yu Chixiang stole a considerable amount of coarse salt, which has likely already entered the market, and some people are probably showing symptoms of poisoning.

Although Lin Ping could also help them detoxify, he didn't want to waste the time and preferred to leave it to the more professional Anletang.

Xu Guangyuan bowed deeply to Lin Ping, naturally on behalf of all the people of Jiangcheng Prefecture to express their gratitude for his kindness.

"Perhaps... you should go and buy some saltpeter in advance." Before leaving, Lin Ping smiled awkwardly, naturally thinking that Anletang's saltpeter had already been bought up by him.

"Little sister, you go back to Mingyue Tower first. Little Li, go back to the city and tell your wife to strengthen the guard on the rock salt mine. Da Shuang and Er Shuang, go and post notices urging people not to buy salt that is not of pure color," Lin Ping hurriedly instructed.

After receiving their orders, the men went about their business, but privately wondered, "Where is the Prince Consort going by himself? It seems like he's deliberately trying to get rid of us."

Little Li chuckled slyly and whispered in Da Shuang's ear, "It must be Miss Lu from the Missing Music Academy."

The two nodded in understanding, meaning they would absolutely keep the matter a secret for the Prince Consort.

Li Mingxuan's guess is reasonable. Before leaving the city, Lin Ping specially took a gauze dress and a pair of exquisite shoes, but did not give them to Lin Xiaomei. So the answer is obvious.

As expected, Lin Ping, carrying two treasures in his arms, cautiously approached the music hall, muttering to himself, "I'm just going to express my gratitude. I have no ulterior motives, and I don't think my wife will be angry."

That's true. Not long ago, Lu Hongling openly offended Xia Linglong's brother in order to help Lin Ping. He should go and thank him, both morally and logically.

However, when they arrived at the entrance of the brothel, Lin Ping suddenly became coy, much like a young woman about to consummate her marriage.

Perhaps it was because he was too handsome and easily attracted the attention of young girls, but when Lin Ping had paced around the entrance of the brothel for the hundredth time, he was finally discovered.

"Isn't this the Prince Consort?" A group of girls ran out excitedly and immediately surrounded Lin Ping.

Lin Ping felt a chill run down his spine, as if he were a wolf in sheep's den, and couldn't help but worry about his eighth brother.

"Hello, ladies." Lin Ping greeted them politely, unaware that this was modern etiquette.

"Your Highness, you've come to see Miss Hongling, haven't you?" one of them guessed Lin Ping's thoughts.

There's no need to guess; within the brothel, besides Lu Hongling, Lin Ping absolutely couldn't name anyone else.

Lin Ping nodded like a chick pecking at rice, anxiously waiting for Lu Hongling to appear.

“Miss Hongling has already left,” the girl continued.
