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.
