The woman was startled by the unfamiliar man’s voice, “Who are you?”
“Let me go, and I’ll leave right away, as if this never happened!”
Hearing the voices getting closer, Li Jixian became anxious, forcefully pushed the woman away, and walked towards the door.
As soon as the door was opened, a bright light shone in, and someone shouted, “It’s right here!”
“Break in and catch this adulterous couple!”
By the sound of it, there were more than a dozen people.
Li Jixian was irritated by the light and instinctively closed his eyes. By the time he reacted, people had already rushed in from outside.
There were both men and women.
Leading them was a fierce-looking woman in her thirties, holding a pair of scissors. Judging by her clothes, she wasn’t an ordinary civilian, but likely from a minor official’s family.
“Where are they? Where are they?”
She stormed in with the scissors.
The people crowding in behind her instantly brightened the room.
Li Jixian was still alright, as his clothes were intact, but not the woman…
She hadn’t dressed properly to begin with, and after being pulled by Li Jixian, her loose outfit hung on her body, barely covering anything.
Her fair skin and voluptuous figure were completely exposed.
The men who entered were instantly aroused by the sight.
The leading woman immediately noticed the other woman, her eyes turning red with fury. She charged forward, grabbed the woman by the hair, and started slapping her face.
“You whore! How dare you seduce another’s man! You’re shameless! I’ll tear your face apart, see how you’ll seduce men in the future!”
With her strength, the woman had no way to resist, screaming and struggling in vain.
Li Jixian had never seen such a scene.
He knew he’d been set up, but no one knew what was going on.
All he wanted now was to slip away while he could.
But how could he escape?
He barely made it to the door before being blocked by another group of people.
Leading them was a frail, pale man.
This was the woman’s husband’s family.
Seeing Li Jixian, the man naturally thought he was the adulterer.
“I’ll beat you to death! How dare you cuckold me!”
He struck Li Jixian’s head with a stick.
Li Jixian nearly passed out.
But his strong will kept him conscious.
Damn, with all this commotion going on, were the Imperial Guards outside all dead?
Li Jixian was furious and frustrated, struggling to grab a teacup and smashed it on the ground.
In return, he was brutally beaten by the group.
As for the Imperial Guards, there was no sign of them.
Li Jixian ached all over.
He realized that if he didn’t do something, he might be beaten to death on the spot.
Although he didn’t want to reveal his identity, it was more important to stay alive.
“Stop! Do you know who I am?” he shouted angrily.
“Damn, you’re nothing but a bastard!” The woman’s husband’s family beat him again.
Li Jixian’s vision blurred in waves.
He fished a jade pendant from his pocket, held it up, and struggled to yell, “I’m someone from the palace! If any of you dare to touch me again, you’ll all die!”
By coincidence, both sides of the family were officials.
Although they weren’t from prominent households, they could at least recognize the palace insignia.
The man snatched the jade pendant, examined it, then his expression began to change.
And Li Jixian, finally unable to hold on any longer, passed out..
