Chapter 211 The “Her” in Prince Qi’s Chamber

Prince Qi's "She"

He didn't care about anything else anymore. He quickly took off his own clothes and covered Luo Feizhou with them.

Then, he picked him up and placed him on the bed.

After confirming the man was still breathing, he breathed a sigh of relief.

In his current state, there was no way Luo Feizhou could be seen in public.

He was so obsessed with saving face. If he knew he'd been carried out looking like this and others saw him, he'd probably blow up even more when he woke up.

But he couldn't just leave Luo Feizhou untreated.

Qing Feng's whole body was tense, cold sweat trickling down his spine, feeling like his life was hanging by a thread.

Just then, out of the corner of his eye, he caught sight of Luo Feizhou's brocade robe thrown under the table. He walked over, picked it up, and after some searching, he actually found Prince Qi's personal token.

Qing Feng took the token, clenched his fist, and walked out of the room. He tossed the token to one of Luo Feizhou's guards.

"Prince Qi orders you to go to the palace and bring Imperial Physician Zhou here. Hurry."

The guard was a bit puzzled and asked an extra question, "Sir Qing Feng, is Princess Ye about to die from the prince's rough treatment?"

"I always said, our Prince Qi is no ordinary man. What woman could handle him?"

Qing Feng: "..."

Qing Feng: "!!!"

He wished he could rip that guard's mouth off.

But thinking Luo Feizhou urgently needed a physician, he held back his anger and said coldly, "If you don't hurry, she'll die in our prince's room. When the emperor investigates, everyone except Prince Qi will be executed."

"Yes, yes, this subordinate will go to the palace to summon the physician right away." The guard trembled in fear, snatched the token, and ran off in a flash.

What Qing Feng didn't realize was that he had been speaking angrily, and his voice wasn't exactly low. Therefore, many guests present heard that sentence.

Everyone started speculating: who was the "she" Qing Feng had mentioned?

For a while, the gossiping crowd buzzed with chatter.

Some said it was a shameless hussy from outside who seduced Prince Qi and accidentally took things too far.

Others said it was the daughter of some important family who wanted to marry Luo Feizhou and become Princess Qi, using such low tactics to climb into a man's bed.

Still others said it was a high-class escort from a wealthy household, specially trained to serve such dignitaries.

The onlookers all had different opinions.

Someone in the know whispered, "You don't know yet? Last time I saw Prince Qi at the Flower Full Pavilion, he was a regular there."

A customer exclaimed in shock, "Ah, no way? Isn't Prince Qi known for being gentle, courteous, and strict with himself? How could he do such a thing? Are you sure you weren't mistaken?"

The insider: "How could I be mistaken? Last time I passed by him face to face, I saw him with my own eyes, a beauty on each arm, going into a room together."

Customer B: "Could it be that Prince Qi's spotless reputation is all a facade?"

The insider: "No kidding. I heard he keeps twenty or thirty beauties in his backyard, all types—plump and slender—and they take turns serving him every day."

"And even then, he's still not satisfied. He still goes out looking for women."

With those words, Luo Feizhou's carefully crafted image shattered into pieces.

Of course, some believed it, and some didn't.

Those who didn't believe were women who had seen Luo Feizhou in person, admired him, and were captivated by his handsome appearance.

They felt deep down that Luo Feizhou couldn't be that kind of person. It must be a rumor spread by his political enemies to smear him.

The large restaurant was packed, and no one left. Everyone wanted to stay and get the scoop.

They wanted to see who the dying woman in Prince Qi's room really was.

Just then, a group of people walked in from outside, and everyone's eyes immediately fell on them.

The reason was simple: these three people were so famous in the capital that the commoners couldn't help but recognize them.

Plus, their appearance was striking.

The newcomers were none other than Ji Yuntang, Luo Sinian, and Xie Liuzheng.

Luo Sinian and Xie Liuzheng were holding longswords, with some minor injuries on their faces. Their expensive robes were stained with mud and dust, looking somewhat disheveled, yet it didn't diminish their noble bearing.

As for Ji Yuntang, she was battered all over, her clothes and hair a mess, her face bruised and bloody, and she limped as she walked.

After entering, Xie Liuzheng's first words were: "Prince Qi was attacked by assassins at Baixiang Tower and is now in critical condition. And you still have the nerve to sit here and eat?"

At this, the restaurant immediately erupted into chaos. Some panicked, others were terrified, and the scene was pure chaos.

Luo Sinian glared at him and said in a voice only the two of them could hear, "Why did you steal my line?"

This was clearly a line Ji Yuntang had given him, meant to showcase Luo Sinian's brotherly bond with Luo Feizhou.

And also to make the audience believe it.

After all, Luo Sinian appeared in the restaurant today, so it was reasonable for him to know about the assassin.

But before he could speak, Xie Liuzheng had snatched his line. He felt like a kid whose candy had been stolen, and was a bit peeved.

Xie Liuzheng had thick skin. He felt no embarrassment about stealing someone else's line. He lowered his voice and said, "Oh, aren't we good brothers? Yours and mine are the same. You've already showed off in front of Princess Ye today, now it's my turn, right?"

Luo Sinian: "..."

He shot Xie Liuzheng a fierce glare but said nothing more.

At that moment, Ji Yuntang cried out loudly, "Call the authorities! Call the authorities!"

"Prince Qi invited me, the Princess, to dine at Baixiang Tower. But black-clad assassins jumped down from the rooftop. They severely beat Prince Qi, even stripped off his clothes and painted a turtle on him to humiliate him, calling him a petty man with a debauched private life, unworthy of being a prince."

"I tried to help, but I was no match for them. I was soon knocked unconscious. They coveted my beauty and kidnapped me through the window. Luckily, Prince Chen and Heir Xie saw it and saved me. Otherwise, the consequences would have been unimaginable."

Ji Yuntang's account was completely different from Qing Feng's.

One had Luo Feizhou doing something unspeakable in the room, with a woman grievously injured.

The other said assassins broke in and injured Luo Feizhou, leaving Prince Qi badly wounded.

In short, these two accounts were fundamentally different in nature.

The gossiping crowd felt their brains couldn't process it all.

But they did understand one thing: the "she" Qing Feng spoke of was none other than Princess Ye, Ji Yuntang.
