[Thank you, princesses, for liking to read ~ I will update one more chapter today, love you. 】

Ye Lan couldn't help but ask, "Mr. Lin, whose head is this? I'm new here and I don't have any grudges with anyone in Pingyang City."

Lin Wanwan took a closer look at the head and immediately thought: "This person seemed to have knocked me down before?"

Qin Jun was shocked when he heard this: "Who is their young master? Is Young Master Lin familiar with him? Why would he kill someone for you?"

"Not familiar with him." Lin Wanwan said, "We just met. Well, we can't really say we know each other. Anyway, he is a very troublesome person. It's best to ignore him for now, especially you, Su Ye."

Su Ye heard this and said, "What's wrong with me?"

Lin Wanwan said: "I am reminding you."

"Then I should just stay at home like Situ Liuyun. Why do I always stumble every time I want to do something?"

However, Su Ye felt uncomfortable and walked back to his room and closed the door.

Lin Wanwan looked at his figure and did not speak.

She thought of Luo Mingyuan being arrested: "Ye Lan, you stay here to protect Qingqing, Zitan and the others. I'll go out and take a look."

"Mr. Lin, it's too dangerous for you to go alone!" Ye Lan said worriedly.

However, Lin Wanwan didn't care about that at all and turned around and left.

"Don't worry, I'll protect you." Qin Jun said to Ye Lan and hurriedly followed him.

"I'll go with you." Zitan hurriedly followed.

The lobby on the first floor of the inn.

Mu Han sat quietly at a table in the corner. He seemed leisurely, but in fact he glanced towards the stairs from time to time, as if he was waiting for something.

When Lin Wanwan's figure appeared at the stairs, Mu Han's eyes instantly became sharp and crazy. He curled his lips and smiled, staring at her closely.

Mu Han's gaze was like two burning flames, burning on Lin Wanwan, as if he wanted to see through her.

Seeing Lin Wanwan going downstairs and walking out of the inn.

Mu Han frowned. Didn’t he come down to find him?

Mu Han stood up suddenly, strode towards Lin Wanwan, and blocked her way with an irresistible attitude.

Lin Wanwan almost bumped into him. She was startled by his sudden action, her brows furrowed, and a trace of disgust flashed in her eyes.

"What?"

Lin Wanwan saw Qin Jun behind her hurried forward, his hand already touching his sword.

"Qin Jun, step back."

Upon hearing this, Qin Jun nodded and retreated, his heart full of worry.

Mu Han leaned closer to Lin Wanwan and saw that her hair was tied up high with a few strands of hair falling beside her fair cheeks.

The makeup that Zitan put on for her was not very dignified. Although it was a man's makeup, it was somewhat sexy and revealed a bit of feminine charm.

Mu Han's eyes were full of amazement, and she felt that the men from Yunhai Country were too gentle.

Mu Han's originally playful expression froze instantly. His eyes seemed to be attracted by a magnet, tightly glued to Lin Wanwan.

His heart couldn't help but beat faster!

This...this...this feeling is coming again!

Do I really have feelings for this man?

Mu Han just stood there blankly, completely forgetting what he had come out to do.

Zi Tan has been in the love field for a long time, so she can naturally tell a man's reaction, love, hate, and emotions at a glance.

She looked at Mu Han's reaction.

She knew that the Mu Han in front of her was in love with the princess.

Lin Wanwan did not dodge and looked straight at him: "You are blocking the way, get out of the way."

Mu Han didn't care about these at all. Instead, he stared at Lin Wanwan's expression closely, with a strange smile on his face. He approached her and asked in an almost paranoid tone:

"Do you like the gift I gave you? That beast bumped into you without any eyes, so I killed him for you."

Lin Wanwan suppressed the anger in her heart and replied coldly: "You are boring, and don't bring me into the reason for your murder."

Mu Han's face darkened instantly. His hands clenched unconsciously, his joints turned white, and his voice became low and dangerous:

"Mr. Lin, you don't like that gift, right?

Not fun, right?

Didn't play what you liked?

OK, let's try it a different way."

Lin Wanwan looked at him calmly. Mu Han's expression made it clear that if he didn't agree, he would have no chance of leaving.

Lin Wanwan sighed slightly: "Okay, let's try something else."

"Hahaha..." Mu Han laughed, "You are the first one who agrees to play games with me."

Qin Jun's hand touched his sword again, revealing a hint of blade light. If Mu Hanruo attacked Lin Wanwan in the slightest, he would be ready to sacrifice himself to protect her.

Lin Wanwan said: "Please move aside. I am busy now."

At this time, a familiar voice was heard from outside. Lin Wanwan walked out of the inn and saw that the person surrounded by soldiers was Luo Mingyuan.

"Let me go, why did you arrest me, why did you arrest me?"

Lin Wanwan hurried out.

All the guards looked at Lin Wanwan in surprise. He actually ignored Prince Mu Han, as if the person outside was more important than the prince.

Mu Han's face instantly turned gloomy, and he moved forward to take a look.

Outside the inn, on the bustling streets of Pingyang City, one could see a team of awe-inspiring yamen runners walking on the street like wolves and tigers.

"Stop talking nonsense and leave quickly!"

Luo Mingyuan's face was full of astonishment and confusion. He tried to struggle against the shackles on his hands and feet, but he seemed so powerless under the strong control of the officers and soldiers.

Passersby stopped and whispered to each other, and discussions surged like a tide.

"This Luo Mingyuan, his ancestors have all been great philanthropists in our Pingyang City!"

"That's right. His father repaired bridges and roads, provided porridge and medicine, all of which were good deeds. How could he end up like this?"

The vendor next to the inn couldn't help but speak loudly, almost dropping the goods in his hands:

"Alas, it's a pity that his father passed away. In recent years, their ancestral cotton industry has not been doing well. The family has fallen into poverty and has been bullied by the government!"

"Could it be that someone is jealous of his family's good reputation and deliberately framed them?"

"If he's caught, he's probably going to get beaten."

"Let's go, let's go." The vendor next door closed the door and said, "Let's go to the City Lord's Mansion and take a look."

The pedestrians nodded and followed the yamen runners to the government office.

Seeing Lin Wanwan lost in thought as she stared at the commotion outside, Mu Han walked forward, got close to Lin Wanwan, and unexpectedly smelled the cold fragrance from her again.

He couldn't help but take a deep breath, curled his lips and smiled: "Do the men in your Yunhai Country smell so good every day?"

Lin Wanwan ignored him. She was thinking about Luo Mingyuan and was about to stand up and walk out of the inn.

Qin Jun and Zitan followed immediately.

Mu Han watched them leave. He returned to his previous seat, crossed his legs, and raised the corners of his lips:

"Zhao Lishi, please find eight men who are good-looking."

"Eight?!" Zhao Lishi was stunned when he heard this.

Mu Han stared at him with eyes as sharp as knives.

Zhao Lishi lowered his head quickly, then said hurriedly, "Yes."

Zhao Lishi finally figured out the key point. A flattering smile appeared on his face: "Are you talking about men who are involved in men's sexual life?"

Mu Han said: "Yes, I am proficient in it."

"Yes, yes." Zhao Lishi said with a smile, "I'll do it right away. When does the prince plan to enjoy it?"

I made a mistake before. No wonder the prince felt that the beauties in Baiyang City were not sexy enough.

It turns out that Prince Mu Han likes men.

Mu Han said: "Tonight."

……

The city lord’s government office.

The atmosphere in the court was solemn.

Lin Wanwan and Qin Jun followed the crowd and gathered outside the court.

The city lord Zhang Xiaodi sat at the desk, his face as gloomy as water, his eyes as sharp as lightning, staring coldly at Luo Mingyuan who was kneeling in the hall.

Zhang Xiaodi slammed the gavel hard, and a loud "bang" echoed in the lobby, making people terrified.

"Luo Mingyuan, someone reported that you were colluding with foreign enemies and had close contacts with the people of Zijin. Do you admit it?" Zhang Xiaodi's voice was like a loud bell, full of majesty and oppression.

Luo Mingyuan was trembling all over, and he knocked his head deeply on the ground: "City Lord, I am innocent! I really didn't..."

"Unjust?" Zhang Xiaodi snorted coldly and interrupted the prisoner, "Call the witness Qian Wanguan."

Qian Wanguan, covered in jewels, knelt in front of the palace and said, "City Lord, the evidence of Luo Mingyuan's collusion with foreign enemies is buried in his large cotton field.

Early this morning, I sent a few servants to dig out the evidence."

Zhang Xiaodi smiled and said, "The evidence is irrefutable. Put Luo Mingyuan in jail for three years, and hand over his ancestral land to Qian Wanguan."

Hearing this, Luo Mingyuan stood up from the ground, straightened his body, and responded fearlessly:

"My Lord, this cotton field is my ancestral property. If I don't sell it for a fortune, he will use dirty tricks to frame me. Please be careful."

"Humph! Are you openly doubting my ability to solve cases?" Zhang Xiaodi snorted coldly, "Why don't you take him away?!"

As Luo Mingyuan was forcibly pulled up by two yamen runners and was about to be dragged away.

Luo Mingyuan shouted angrily: "Let me go! You! So you! You are colluding with officials and businessmen! You will be punished!"

Zhang Xiaodi waved his hand, "You still dare to be stubborn and curse me. Let him know who has the final say in Pingyang City! Come on, give him 20 lashes first, and see if he dares to be stubborn again!"

The bailiffs on both sides responded in unison, immediately stepped forward to hold the prisoner down, picked up the boards and beat him hard.

"Snap, snap, snap..." The sound of the boards falling echoed in the lobby, and Luo Mingyuan let out screams.

Zhang Xiaodi remained unmoved and continued to stare at the prisoner with a cold smile on his face.

After the twenty strokes of the cane, Luo Mingyuan was already on the verge of death. "You take human life lightly, you are worse than beasts!"

"He's roaring in court, take him away and lock him up!" Zhang Xiaodi shouted angrily, the fat on his obese face trembling, his eyes wide open, full of anger and threats.

Luo Mingyuan was dragged away by the yamen runners and imprisoned in a cell.

Outside the hall, the people gathered together, their faces full of anger and helplessness. They whispered to each other, but their voices were full of worry and depression.

"It's so unfair! He is such a kind-hearted man!" An old man couldn't help but shouted, but his mouth was immediately covered by the person next to him.

"Shh! Are you trying to kill yourself? Who in Pingyang City dares to offend the city lord?" someone warned in a low voice.

A woman bit her lips tightly, her eyes filled with tears. The child in her arms seemed to feel the tense atmosphere and was too scared to make a sound.

Several young and strong men clenched their fists tightly, their knuckles turned white and made crackling sounds.

They thought about how the cruel official Zhang Xiaodi had been bullying the people for so many years, and they could hardly suppress their anger. However, when they saw the yamen runners around them who were eyeing them covetously, they could only hold back their anger.

After a while, everyone dispersed.

Seeing this, Lin Wanwan lowered her eyes and turned around: "Go back, Qin Jun."
