Chapter 333: You hit the wrong person...



The worst part was, Li Jixian dressed up in disguise when he left the palace to avoid arousing suspicion. As he looked ordinary and the lighting was dim, the people fighting on both sides were all from smaller households of officials and had never seen the Crown Prince himself.

How could they know that the man they had brutally beaten was none other than the Crown Prince?

With such a commotion, it was impossible not to alarm the innkeeper.

Not only did the innkeeper come to mediate, but other guests at the Tea Delight Inn also came out to watch.

At this time, it was not too late at night and the curfew hadn’t started yet. There were many people coming and going outside, with one onlooker bringing a large group of followers.

Thus, it didn’t take long for the incident to become a boiling hot topic.

A man and woman were having an affair at the Tea Delight Inn and had booked the most expensive room, which then alerted both their families who came to catch the adulterers.

The man’s family attacked the adulterer, while the woman’s family attacked the licentious wife.

Both were beaten until they were bloody and bruised.

It was a vicious beatdown.

Everyone enjoyed watching the spectacle and reveled in others’ misfortune. Naturally, the news quickly spread from one person to ten, then from ten to a hundred.

However, the beating inside didn’t last very long.

The woman’s husband’s family soon realized that the man before them was indeed from the palace.

Palace people, besides the Emperor… Of course, the one being beaten was definitely not the Emperor.

Besides the Emperor, it had to be a prince then.

Considering the several princes, the Eldest Prince was gone, King of Chen had rebelled and was executed, Prince of Huai had become the Crown Prince, and Prince of Wei was foolish and incompetent. Prince of Yu was far away guarding the Imperial Mausoleum.

Apart from the Crown Prince, there was Prince of Wei.

Although they couldn’t be sure which one it was, they couldn’t afford to provoke either of them.

They were terrified and grabbed the woman, demanding, “Tell us, you wicked woman, who were you having an affair with?”

With her bruised face, the woman trembled, “I… I don’t know him… You got the wrong person…”

“Damn it, then why was he here? Where is your lover? Where is he?”

“I… I don’t know…” The woman sobbed from the beating she had received.

At this point, the burly woman who had hit her realized that the man they had caught wasn’t her husband.

They were also dumbfounded.

“Where’s my husband?” She asked hesitantly.

“Who is your husband?” The man asked.

“Why should I tell you?” The woman suddenly became clever and snapped back, “I made a mistake, let’s go.”

“Don’t you dare leave!” The man stopped them, “No one leaves until we clear this up. The Zheng Family won’t take the blame for this!”

The woman became anxious: “The person who slept with your wife isn’t my husband; why can’t I leave?”

“Heh, if it wasn’t your husband, then why did you come to catch him and beat my wife to this state?” The man sneered, “Do you think we’ll just let this go?” The woman was somewhat angry and scared, “Then what do you want?” “We’ll go to the government office and sort this out!”

“Going to the government office? You’re not afraid of losing face, are you?”

“They dared to do such shameless things; what should I be afraid of?” The man appeared resolute.

But in fact, he was full of guilt and fear.

Of course, he was also afraid of losing face, but what he feared more was offending the Crown Prince or Prince of Wei.

Regardless of who the beaten man was, he couldn’t handle the consequences.

Even if he were to die, he had to find someone to take the fall with him.

However, the woman refused to go to the government office no matter what..
