After entering the inner hall, Li Tingzhao took the seat of honor, with Chu Xuhua sitting to his right, the closest position. The others found their places around them.
The presence of Chu Xuhua by Li Tingzhao's side elevated his status in the eyes of the onlookers, making them regard him as a trusted confidant of Li Tingzhao.
Li Tingzhao surveyed everyone in the hall and straightforwardly stated, "I wish for the Lin family to disappear from Fengxin County. I hope for your cooperation."
This statement weighed heavily on those present, considering Li Tingzhao was raised by the Lin family's first madam. Now a prince, instead of repaying their kindness, he sought to eliminate the Lin family.
There must be a significant, hidden reason behind his desire to erase the Lin family, something grave enough to provoke such a stance from Li Tingzhao.
With this thought, everyone ceased their speculation, fearing the potential repercussions of their curiosity.
