Granny Gong brought four young maids with her. They had all been carefully chosen for the task, and were very well-behaved.

Some helped Feng Wu get dressed, some tended to her face, and some helped her put her shoes on… Before long, Feng Wu was tidied up and presentable.

Granny Gong herself put a belt on Feng Wu. As she did so, she said, "Miss Feng, the crown prince carried you back himself."

Carried her back… himself?

Feng Wu's stomach lurched.

"Wh- what did you say?" Feng Wu seemed shocked.

Granny Gong smiled. "Miss Wu, do you still remember the duel at Imperial College?"

Feng Wu said, "Of course."

Granny Gong said sympathetically, "His Royal Highness has been in the water dungeon all this time, and flogged as self-punishment, but when the secret guards arrived to inform him about the Xuanyuan family, His Royal Highness broke out of the water dungeon right away."

Feng Wu didn't know what to say.

Flogged?
