Chapter 004: His Highness the Prince of Yan's Undergarments

The two young attendants rushed out from the Drunken Fragrance Pavilion and, upon seeing their master's gaze, did not take action

Before long, she took a gong and confidently walked into the street. She provocatively glanced at the man in purple standing by the carriage across the street, then struck the gong vigorously and shouted at the top of her lungs: "Don't miss out as you pass by! Ladies and gentlemen, come and take a look! Today, I am selling something extremely, extremely, extremely precious, a treasure that you will never see in your lifetime..."

The carriage hurriedly departed, and Lan Qingxiao achieved a great victory, proudly lifting her chin towards the distant carriage and letting out a cold snort

The onlookers were in an uproar, either turning away or hurling insults; what is a pair of shorts compared to a rare treasure

She had long since left the Zui Xiang Lou. Yan Nanzheng had already guessed that the young lady, being whimsical and clever, would not wait to die in that brothel.

"I wonder whose personal item this is?" someone asked with interest

"Your Highness, it would be best if you left. I cannot afford to provoke you," said Yue Mei coldly

Yuan Wang Mansion

The resounding sound of the gong and the cries of the vendors attracted a considerable number of passersby, who gathered around and inquired in a flurry of voices about what treasures were being offered

Liu Feng wore a puzzled expression, yet was very pleased, "Your Highness, I will go and catch her."

Previously, he searched through the Drunken Fragrance Pavilion but did not find that young lady. However, for the humiliation she inflicted upon His Highness and the damage to His Highness's reputation, even dying ten times would not be enough! Tonight, even if he has to scour the entire imperial capital, he must find her!

This is indeed the undergarment of a certain prince of the current dynasty. She winked mysteriously, saying, "That prince spent a night of indulgence at the Fragrant Drunken Pavilion last night, leaving behind this incredibly precious undergarment. This prince holds a high position, possesses beauty like snow, resembles a celestial being, excels in both literature and martial arts, and is favored by the Empress Dowager. Is this prince's undergarment not a rare treasure? As long as this prince's personal item is enshrined, with daily incense offerings and worship, not only can one avert misfortune and turn it into good fortune, but one can also be blessed with good luck and achieve great success."

The flowing wind attends to His Highness's rest, yet remains indignant about the incident that occurred on the street. "Your Highness, that young lady has tarnished your reputation; it is utterly despicable! She must be captured and properly punished!"

Yan Nanzheng's handsome face was overshadowed by dark clouds, and it felt as if thousands of troops were galloping through his heart

With a swift glance, Lan Qingxiao devised a plan and hurried towards the back courtyard

Lan Qingxiao's smile was sweet, "Everyone listen carefully, the owner of these shorts is..." She pointed to Yan Nanzheng across the street, "It is this prince!"

Liu Feng was utterly bewildered, staring in shock. Was that His Highness's undergarment? Why was he unaware of this?

He is a significant figure; if you provoke him, you will certainly face dire consequences. I cannot assist you; you must rely on your own fortune.

Gui Jian Chou accepted the order and withdrew, his gaze towards the night was unwaveringly resolute

After an hour, Gui Jianchou returned to report: "Your Highness, I am incompetent and was unable to find that young lady"

Yan Nanzheng sat at the edge of the bed, his voice soft and淡, "Gui Jian Chou has already left. You may withdraw now"

Lan Qingxiao waved the underwear vigorously, making sure everyone could see it, and shouted at the top of her lungs: "His Royal Highness, the Prince of Yan, is of unparalleled nobility. This pair of underwear was left by His Royal Highness at the Zui Xiang Lou last night. Do you wish to obtain this rare treasure? Come, come, the starting bid is ten taels, and the highest bidder wins!"

Some people disdainfully do not believe her nonsensical claims, but there are indeed others who are genuinely interested and have come forward to make an offer

What exactly is this rare treasure? Many people ask

The flow of anger was about to explode, and my nose was almost crooked. "Your Highness, she, she, she... actually tarnished Your Highness's reputation, it is truly unforgivable!"

"Everyone, bear witness. If I should die on the streets today, it will surely be at the hands of His Highness, the Prince of Yan." Lan Qingxiao, filled with immense fear, nonetheless displayed a spirit of heroic resolve, stating, "I do not ask you to testify for me; I only hope you remember that His Highness, the Prince of Yan, has killed an innocent civilian who was unarmed."

I have no grievances or enmity with your Highness, why would I falsely accuse him? She saw Prince Yan with a cold expression getting into the carriage and let out a sigh of relief

Liu Feng was both shocked and incredulous, angrily exclaiming: "How could she publicly sell such... intimate items? It is a disgrace to morals! This is too much!"

Yes

Many people are filled with gossip and are eagerly asking which prince's personal undergarment it is

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Liu Feng rushed over in a fluster, angrily rebuking, "Everyone, do not believe her. My lord has never been to the Zui Xiang Lou, and that indecent garment is definitely not my lord's personal possession. This person is speaking slanderously, framing my lord with malicious intent..."

It seems that the two young men in blue who pursued her last night in the capital were likely sent by the Prince of Yan to hunt her down

"Do not rush, do not rush, just listen to me," Lan Lanqing said with a silver tongue. "As long as you keep this prince's personal undergarment in the ancestral hall at home, those in business can become the richest in the capital, diligent students can achieve top honors, beggars can become wealthy overnight, butchers and fishmongers can rise to nobility, and humble families can transform into powerful clans. In short, you can achieve great success; whatever you desire can be realized."

The onlookers were all astonished, while the two attendants, hearing her shout like that, hesitated to step forward to apprehend her for fear of tarnishing His Highness's reputation and providing grounds for criticism

... ...

Yes. My subordinates have already sent people to search everywhere. The ghost looks apologetic.

Yan Nanzheng sneered, this dead girl really knows how to talk nonsense

Someone recognized him and exclaimed: "Isn't he the King of Yan? Only the King of Yan wears purple robes; he is indeed the handsome and peerless King of Yan"

Is the Prince of Yan not furious enough to spit blood this time

Everyone turned their heads, their eyes wide open, it is him

The two attendants in blue received the master's command and stepped forward to apprehend the person

Yan Nanzheng furrowed his sword-like brows, wondering what she was trying to achieve by not fleeing for her life and instead beating a gong to sell goods in the street

Yan Nanzheng waved his hand to stop her, but he was curious to see what this quirky girl was up to and wanted to know how she managed to evade his capture

Yan Nanzheng's handsome visage instantly transformed into a glacier that had existed for ten thousand years, emanating a chilling aura, devoid of any vegetation.

Lan Qingxiao had long been prepared and immediately shouted at the top of her lungs: "Prince Yan has committed murder! Prince Yan has trampled on human life! Prince Yan has committed murder! Prince Yan has trampled on human life!"

As the gentle breeze subsided, Yan Nanzheng sat by the desk reading, yet he recalled the incident that occurred at the Drunken Fragrance Pavilion, causing his gaze to chill slightly

This is a rare treasure that comes once in a hundred years. Everyone must come and take a look. It doesn't matter if you don't buy anything; just looking is a blessing. Take a glance, and who knows, you might just soar to great heights.

She offended and humiliated him, which was indeed a bit excessive, but it does not warrant the need to eliminate her completely

She chuckled softly, realizing that he was the Prince of Yan

Before dawn, I must see her

The crowd of onlookers grew larger, nearing one hundred people. She took out a pair of men's light blue underwear and held it high, asking, "Do you all know whose underwear this is?"

You only need to tell me who he is

Lan Qingxiao understood her concerns and did not press her, choosing to withdraw instead

Seeing His Highness leave, Liu Feng understood that His Highness did not wish to be pointed at or discussed in the streets, so he could only swallow his anger and instructed the two attendants to leave immediately
