A Foodie Transmigrated into the Palace-Chapter 824: He’s Really Good-Looking

"So many people bullying a proper young lady in broad daylight, have you no shame?!"

As he spoke, the sound of a sword rang out.

A graceful young man dressed in dark clothing descended from the sky, snatching her away from the black-clad men and protecting her in his embrace.

With a few more punches and kicks, the black-clad man let out a miserable cry and was kicked to the ground.

The rest of the black-clad men surrounded him, intending to kill him.

But the young man made quick work of them, scattering them to the ground, crying out in pain.

In the blink of an eye, all the danger was resolved.

He saved her from the depths of danger.

Xia Caiying was instantly moved to tears, blurred by them.

She saw a resolute gaze, the side profile of a handsome young man as if carved by a blade.

He wasn’t looking at her, but kept his thin lips tightly pressed, shielding her from all the crises.

He was really handsome.

Deep eyes, a handsome face, thin lips pressed tight.

Firm yet not rough, refined yet without losing heroism.

Just the right balance, neither too tough nor too weak!

In the midst of the fight, Xia Caiying examined him closely.

Whether out of fear or for some other reason, her heart thumped wildly, like a startled deer.

After landing.

The black-clad men saw his appearance clearly, and the leader seemed terrified.

He got up and tried to run.

But the young man wouldn’t relent, placing Xia Caiying beside the carriage, he leapt after them.

He tore off the black-clad man’s mask.

His expression was immediately filled with contempt.

"So it’s you!"

Yang Chenyi said with disgust and distaste as he threw away the mask, as if touching it was repulsive.

Zhao Junwu was unexpectedly recognized.

He brazenly admitted it.

"It’s me, so what if it is?"

"I..."

Zhao Junwu glanced at the pale-faced girl a short distance away, suddenly feeling a bit guilty.

But to save face, he stubbornly retorted.

"I fancy that girl; I want to take her as a concubine, what of it, is that not allowed?!"

Yang Chenyi punched him.

"Ah, as a prince of the imperial family, is this how you take a concubine?"

"Sixth Prince, well done!"

Zhao Junwu saw how arrogant the other party was.

His subordinates were still there; if he didn’t retort, where would his face be in the future?

So he stubbornly retorted.

"Mind your own business, young master’s affairs aren’t your concern!"

Yang Chenyi laughed coldly.

"Your affairs are none of my concern, but... the Sixth Prince should know, I have just been appointed as the patrolling envoy of the Bureau of Warhorses!"

"This is my territory!"

"According to the law, forcefully taking a civilian girl should be punished by imprisonment and a heavy beating of fifty paddles!"

"This official is newly appointed, and these initial fires... are inevitable!"

"Men, take him away!"

After Yang Chenyi spoke, he stood up.

Zhao Junwu then realized, behind him was a squad of soldiers.

Suddenly frightened, his lips trembled, yet he shouted in defiance.

"Dare you hit me, Yang Chenyi, I dare you to try!"

Yang Chenyi was unafraid, sneering with lips pressed tight.

"I’m hitting you!"

"Dare I hit you once, dare I hit you a second time!"

"Men, hurry and take them, all of them!"

"Yes, sir!"

The soldiers, after saluting, surrounded them, binding and taking away the group of black-clad men.

Xia Caiying, beside the carriage, was also helped up by Sister and the maids.

The young lady was frightened.

Everyone hurriedly tidied up to return to the mansion without delay.

Seated again in the carriage, Xia Caiying frequently looked back at the figure of the heroic young man who saved her.

In her heart, she silently repeated his name several times.

"Yang Chenyi?"

What a nice name, meaning calm and resolute? He’s really handsome!

...

Perhaps she was truly frightened.

After returning to the mansion, Xia Caiying developed a high fever that wouldn’t subside and fell unconscious.

Eventually, she began to speak deliriously, mumbling things no one took time to listen to.

Everyone was anxiously moving around!

Ni Manxue and Lady Wen couldn’t sit still.

They called one famous doctor after another in the capital city, tried several methods, but none proved effective.

However, their diagnosis was quite consistent.

"She was frightened!"

Ni Manxue grew anxious.

"Who doesn’t know she was frightened, but why can’t she be cured?!"

"Mother! Father hasn’t come off duty yet, if worst comes to worst, have someone deliver a message to the palace!"

"And also inform Her Highness to invite an imperial physician for Caiying!"

Lady Wen angrily wiped her tears, hesitating whether to nod consent.

If she disagreed, the Sixth Prince was truly bullying, openly ruining one’s reputation.

Agreeing, after all, it is the Sixth Prince; should we offend the imperial family?

And Empress Dowager Zhen is not someone easy to provoke.

Forming an enmity over this, how will things be in the future?!

Seeing Lady Wen’s struggle, Ni Manxue urged her anxiously.

"Mother, Second Sister’s fever won’t go down, she can’t wait any longer!"

Lady Wen glanced at her unconscious daughter, her gaze darkening; biting her lip, she was about to agree.

Suddenly hearing Dong’er report from outside.

"Madam, Young Lady!"

"The Marquis is back!"

Lady Wen lifted her head abruptly, seeing Lady Ni’s face also filled with joy.

"Marquis!"

Xia Tingfeng entered with a dark expression.

He glanced at the unconscious Xia Caiying on the bed and said deeply.

"The palace already knows!"

"The Sixth Prince has been taken to Shuntian Prefecture for a heavy beating of fifty paddles and sent back to the palace!"

"This also disturbed the Emperor and the Empress Dowager!"

"The Emperor is furious! The Empress Dowager doesn’t know yet!"

"However... the Empress Dowager and Empress Dowager Zhen have never been on good terms, this matter... won’t easily be put to rest!"

"Rest assured!" 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦

Xia Tingfeng finished, looking at Xia Caiying, his gaze dimmed further.

"It’s all my fault as her brother!"

"If it weren’t for Chenyi today, I truly can’t imagine what might have happened..."

Lady Wen finally returned to her senses, wiping her tears.

"We must thank Young Master Yang properly!"

Ni Manxue seemed relieved and smiled.

"Lady Bai of the Yang family and my mother have a good relationship; our families often visit each other!"

"Now Young Master Yang has saved Caiying’s life, this favor we really owe!"

Lady Wen nodded.

"Since that’s the case, we should choose a day to visit!"

"A life-saving grace, naturally, needs to be thanked in person!"

Lady Ni smiled and said.

"Exactly!"

Xia Tingfeng nodded and added.

"Her Highness in the palace also knows, she sent to invite an imperial physician; you should prepare, he should arrive soon!"

At the mention of the imperial physician.

The mother and daughter nearly cried tears of joy.

"Yes indeed! That is most crucial!"

Nothing is more important than the child’s life!

"Yes!" Ni Manxue responded.

Then went out to arrange for receiving the imperial physician.

After waiting for a quarter of an hour, the imperial physician arrived.

Xia Tingfeng saw that it was Imperial Doctor Zhang.

He quickly clasped his hands in salute.

"So it’s Lord Zhang, please come in!"

Imperial Doctor Zhang was the Imperial Medical Bureau’s judge, young yet already famous.

Countless nobles in the capital city spend large amounts of silver but still can’t invite him.
