The carriage fell into silence. Not long after, Han Sui came back and reported to Long Jingyan that he had completed the task he had assigned him.

"Go back to the prefect's mansion." Long Jingyan said.

"Yes, Your Highness." Han Sui responded respectfully, got back into the carriage, and drove to the prefectural government office.

The carriage was very quiet. Neither Long Jingyan nor Jiang Taohua spoke a word. They were silent all the way until the carriage stopped at the gate of the prefect's residence.

Jiang Taohua got off the carriage first. After getting off, she stood aside obediently waiting for Long Jingyan to get off.

After Long Jingyan got off the carriage, he didn't even look at her and walked straight to the mansion.

Jiang Taohua followed him obediently to the prefect's residence, doing her duty as a dutiful maid.

The two walked quietly, one in front and the other behind. After returning to the courtyard that Wang Dafu arranged for Long Jingyan, Long Jingyan returned to his room.

Jiang Taohua also returned to her room, thinking about her next plan to capture Long Jingyan.

At the same time, Wang Dafu in the prefectural yamen was also thinking about how to help Jiang Taohua and Long Jingyan make substantial progress. He thought about it all morning but couldn't come up with any good ideas.

It is definitely not okay to give Long Jingyan drugs to help him have fun or to feed him tonics. Long Jingyan is of noble status, and giving him drugs or tonics must mean he wants to die.

Mr. Liu, who was standing next to him, saw that Wang Dafu had been gloomy all morning. He asked tentatively, "Sir, have you encountered any troubles?"

Wang Dafu told Master Liu about what was bothering him.

"Sir, Prince Jin is not doing well in that aspect. You can give him some supplements to nourish him." Master Liu gave Wang Dafu some advice.

Wang Dafu frowned and said, "Prince Jin is a noble man. If we give him that thing, he will be furious. No, this method is not advisable."

Master Liu thought about it and gave Wang Dafu another bad idea, "Sir, if it doesn't work with Prince Jin, you can start with Miss Taohua.

Sir, I got a medicine called "One Night Spring" from Jianghu half a year ago.

If a woman takes that kind of medicine, she will become even more passionate and seductive. If Miss Taohua takes that kind of medicine and appears before the King of Jin, the King of Jin will definitely not treat her like Liu Xiahui.

Wang Dafu touched his chin after hearing this and thought that his idea was good. If he didn't dare to drug King Jin to add to the fun, he could drug Jiang Taohua.

Jiang Taohua was just a helpless brothel girl, so it didn't matter if he secretly had someone drug her.

Even if Prince Jin gets furious about Jiang Taohua being drugged, he can just find someone in the mansion to take the blame.

The more Wang Dafu thought about it, the more feasible it seemed to him. So Wang Dafu asked Master Liu for the "One Night Spring" medicine, handed over the affairs of the prefectural yamen to Prefect Liu, and then hurried back to his home.

After returning home, Wang Dafu called Xiaohong, the maid he arranged to serve Jiang Taohua, and gave her the "One Night Spring" and asked her to secretly put the medicine in Jiang Taohua's food tonight.

Xiaohong is loyal to Wang Dafu and obeys his orders. When she heard his instructions, she agreed without hesitation.

At night, Xiaohong put the aphrodisiac "One Night Spring" into Jiang Taohua's food.

Jiang Taohua discovered that the medicine was put in the food, but she did not expose it. Instead, she ate it honestly.

She wanted to see if Long Jingyan would remain calm if she was drugged and appeared in front of him.

The drug "One Night Spring" takes effect quickly. Not long after taking the drug, Jiang Taohua started to react.

She asked Pangpang to help her suppress the effects of the medicine, and the medicine would only take effect when she went to help Long Jingyan wash up.

Pangpang was an obedient person and helped Jiang Taohua suppress the effects of the medicine without hesitation, delaying its onset.

On Long Jingyan's side, Long Jingyan was thinking about Wang Dafu.

Today, he followed Han Sui out incognito to visit the villages outside Jiangzhou City, and only then did he realize that Wang Dafu was far more hateful than the middle-aged couple said.

This Wang Dafu is rich but unkind. He oppresses the people, increases their taxes, and increases their burden. He deserves to be put to death!

However, we have not yet found any evidence of Wang Dafu selling illegal salt, nor have we found the account books of those who colluded with Wang Dafu.

He doesn't know how to deal with Wang Dafu now. He wants to wipe out all those who colluded with Wang Dafu to do bad things!

Just as I was thinking about it, there was a knock on the door, accompanied by a deep male voice, "Prince."

Long Jingyan came back to his senses and said, "Come in."

The door was pushed open from the outside, and a guard in black walked in. This was Guyu, whom he had arranged to investigate Jiang Taohua's life experience.

He was a cautious man. Since he kept Jiang Taohua as a maid, he naturally had to investigate her background. He would not keep people of unknown origin around him.

Even if Jiang Taohua sang well and he liked her voice, he would not let her stay by his side to serve him because of her bad character.
