Chapter 198 Fighting



The Crown Prince of Yanping walked over and asked Xie Jingyan, "Are you alright?"

Xie Jingyan raised his hand to stop him, "It's alright."

You've vomited so much, and you still say you're fine.

Chen Feng had the noodle stall cover the lid tightly, and the smell dissipated, so Xie Jingyan felt less nauseous. He took the teacup from Chen Feng and rinsed his mouth.

Shen Wan said with heartache, "Let's go back to the Prince's Mansion."

Xie Jingyan said, "I'm fine, you can walk around with me for a while longer."

It wasn't her accompanying him shopping; it was clearly him accompanying her, saying that to prevent her from being criticized.

Xie Jingyan looked at the Prince of Yanping and the others, "Why are you all here?"

The Prince of Yanping said, "We were drinking at Wangyue Tower when we saw you strolling around. We thought you had recovered from your illness, so we thought we'd come over and say hello..."

It's not better at all; it's still just as serious as before.

Prince Yanping sighed inwardly, "Then we won't disturb your shopping trip. We'll visit you at Prince Ling's residence another day."

As they left, Xie Jingyan did not try to stop them. He took Shen Wan's hand and walked ahead, fearing that the smell would make him want to vomit again.

His illness is strange; the vomiting comes on suddenly and is uncontrollable, but after vomiting, he feels fine again after a while and it doesn't affect his ability to go shopping with Chen Wan.

Shen Wan then said, "Let's go back. Once you're better, you'll have plenty of time to go shopping with me."

Is there any future?

Xie Jingyan just wants to cherish the present.

He took Shen Wan from Changping Street to Chimelong Street, from one shop to another, from one stall to another, buying everything he liked and found pleasing to the eye.

The shops and vendors who bought from them looked at them as if they were the God of Wealth.

After leaving the silk shop, the two walked forward. As they passed an antique and calligraphy shop, Shen Wan was walking along when Xie Jingyan suddenly grabbed her and spun her around. Before Shen Wan could react to what was happening, she heard a loud crashing sound.

Shen Wan belatedly realized that Xie Jingyan had just saved her life again. If he hadn't helped her to safety in time, the porcelain bottle that had been smashed out of the shop would have hit her on the head.

Xie Jingyan's face was gloomy, and Shen Wan was even more furious.

What angered her even more was what happened next: the people who had been fighting inside the shop came out, and the two started punching and kicking each other, fighting fiercely.

One of the two fighting was the heir of the Duke of Mao, while the other, Xie Jingyan, only felt that he looked somewhat familiar but did not know who he was.

Shen Wan said irritably, "That's the heir of Prince An."

Although the heir of the Duke of Maoguo was no pushover either, and it was uncertain who would start the fight, because the heir of the Prince of An had been so domineering in the capital in his previous life, Shen Du couldn't stand it and taught him a lesson, which angered the Princess of An. In addition, because his arm was injured, the Prince of An's mansion refused to agree to the marriage no matter what. In the end, Princess Huai'an committed suicide on her wedding day, and her elder brother was murdered on her wedding day. She thought he had committed suicide for love.

The An Prince's Mansion held a higher position and prestige in his fiefdom of Huaizhou than even the Emperor. After all, the emperor was far away and the local officials were more powerful than the local ones. No one in the fiefdom dared to offend the An Prince's heir. He was fawned over wherever he went, making him an absolute tyrant. However, the capital was full of powerful and influential people. The Mao State Duke's Mansion was the Empress Dowager's maternal family, and the Mao State Duke's heir was also a star wherever he went. It would be strange if these two tyrants didn't clash when they met.

The Prince of Ke'an's family only arrived in the capital yesterday, and returned to the capital to celebrate the Empress Dowager's birthday. The day after their return, they had a conflict with the Empress Dowager's maternal grand-nephew. No wonder the Empress Dowager was unhappy.

Even though the Prince of An in his previous life was traumatized by the deaths of Princess Huai'an and her elder brother, and eventually changed his personality, even becoming completely subservient to Xie Jingyan, Shen Wan still didn't have a good impression of him.

Xie Jingyan led Shen Wan back a few steps. Shen Wan thought he was worried that the fight between the Prince of An and the Prince of Mao would affect them. However, after taking two steps back, Xie Jingyan dodged and grabbed the fist that the Prince of Mao was swinging at the Prince of An, as well as the foot that the Prince of An was about to kick the Prince of Mao.

His agile movements, coupled with his alluring face, made even the usually composed Shen Wan's heart flutter, let alone the girls watching the spectacle around them, whose eyes seemed glued to Xie Jingyan.

Xie Jingyan stopped the two fighting and shook off their hands and feet.

The Prince of An staggered two steps and almost fell. The Prince of Mao also took several steps back, shocked by the Prince of Ling's martial arts skills. He couldn't break free. He said angrily, "Instead of staying at home to recuperate, Prince Ling comes out to meddle in my business!"

Xie Jingyan coldly asked, "Who threw that porcelain vase that almost hit my wife just now?"

He told the heir of the Duke of Maoguo in one sentence that he wasn't meddling in other people's business, but that they had offended him.

The porcelain vase was kicked by the heir of the Duke of Maoguo towards the heir of the Prince of An, who dodged it, causing it to fall into the street.

Xie Jingyan's eyes were icy cold. At this moment, the First Prince came out of the shop and said, "I didn't expect it to be such a coincidence that we would run into each other on the street."

Xie Jingyan said expressionlessly, "I didn't expect you to be here either."

If the Emperor were to hear of the fight between the heirs of the Duke of Mao and the Prince of An without intervening, he would surely be severely reprimanded.

Originally, the eldest prince didn't want to get involved in this matter, but since Xie Jingyan got involved, he had no choice but to show up.

The eldest prince laughed and said, "They just hadn't seen each other for a few years and got a little itchy, so they just sparred with each other. They didn't expect to almost hurt Princess Ling. I apologize to Princess Ling on their behalf."

Since Shen Wan wasn't injured, and the First Prince apologized on their behalf, he had to be given face in front of everyone.

Shen Wan walked to Xie Jingyan's side and said, "I'm a little tired too, let's go back to the manor."

Xie Jingyan then dropped the matter and left with Shen Wan.

After they left, the Prince An's servant dragged the Prince An away as well. The servant had wanted to do this for a long time, but when a fight broke out, even if he wanted to, he couldn't. Fortunately, Prince Ling was there, otherwise the Prince An would have suffered a great loss today. No, he had already suffered a great loss, as he had been kicked several times, and his brocade robe was covered with footprints.

In Huaizhou, no one dares to fight the young master. This is the capital. If we let the young master fight, we won't let him.

Watching Xie Jingyan help Chen Wan into the carriage, the heir of the Duke of Maoguo looked displeased, and the eldest prince said, "Don't provoke him."

The heir of the Duke of Maoguo said disdainfully, "He's just an unfavored prince, why should we be afraid of him?"

Is she out of favor?

He used to think that Prince Ling was not favored and was even disliked by his father, but this time when Prince Ling fell ill, he realized that his father did not dislike Prince Ling as much as he thought. His father's attitude towards Prince Ling was something he could not figure out.

He dared not let his guard down.

Furthermore—

Prince Ling and Prince Jin were at odds.

The Prince of Jin has been having a hard time lately, and the fact that he could overshadow the Prince of Jin tells him that it was the work of the Prince of Ling.

Watching the departing carriage, the eldest prince's eyes were unfathomable.

“As long as he doesn’t covet the position of crown prince, there’s no need to be his enemy.”
