Chapter 120 Public Humiliation

"Your Highness, I dare not." The prefect knelt on the ground and trembled.

With his official rank, he is just a minor official in the capital.

So when he saw that it was the young lady of the Cavalry General's mansion who asked someone to report to the police, he would definitely rush over as soon as possible.

But who would have thought that this young lady from the cavalry general's mansion was so blind that she didn't know the real master.

He actually had a dispute with Princess Mingzhu of the Yongyi Marquis's family.

When Princess Mingzhu was canonized, he was kneeling in a corner and watching from a distance.

He still remembers vividly the scene of colorful clouds and hundreds of birds paying homage to him.

But he had just arrived and had no time to say anything when His Royal Highness the Crown Prince arrived.

"I just arrived, just before Your Highness arrived, and I haven't had time to ask what the situation is." The prefect said with a smile.

"Your servant..." Wu Jiaoqun was dumbfounded.

She never expected that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince really came for this little kid.

She had never heard of any concubine in the palace giving birth to a princess who was over one year old.

No, there is no biological child of the emperor, but a few months ago, the emperor personally conferred the title of Princess Mingzhu on the daughter of the Marquis Yongyi.

Could it be that...

Wu Jiaoqun was so frightened that she quickly kowtowed in the direction of Xiao Tangbao, "It is my fault for bumping into Princess Mingzhu."

Little Tangbao ate the sweet-scented osmanthus cake given by the steward and snorted coldly, "You still want to hit me."

"What?" Mo Junye's face darkened after hearing this. "Is this how the General's House of Cavalry educates their daughters?"

Hearing this, Wu Jiaoqun shook her head repeatedly, "I didn't, it was her maid who bumped into me first, and then we had a few arguments, how could I hit her?"

"How dare you?" Little Tangbao made a face at Wu Jiaoqun.

"Come here, give all the Wu family's servants who committed the crime 20 strokes of the cane. As for the Wu family's young lady," Mo Junye's eyes were slightly cold, "take her back to the general's mansion and tell the cavalry general to discipline his daughter."

"And tell the cavalry general that his daughter bumped into Princess Mingzhu today and even tried to beat her up."

"Ah!" Wu Jiaoqun was extremely anxious.

Her father has always been very strict with her. If he knew about this, he would definitely use the family rules to punish her.

Thinking of those canes and boards, Wu Jiaoqun felt as if every inch of her skin and flesh was aching.

She kowtowed to Xiao Tangbao and said, "Princess Mingzhu, I was blind and ignorant. I was too self-righteous and accidentally bumped into you. Please forgive me!"

Little Sugar Baby shook his head, "I don't accept it."

[Humph, she was so fierce just now, and she even wanted to hit and pinch me. If Chuntao hadn't been there, she would have really hit me.]

[Now you are pretending to be pitiful. I am not soft-hearted. You are a bad guy, even worse than Mo Yuyao! ]

[He took advantage of his power to bully others and even wanted to take off Sister Chuntao's clothes! ]

As Xiao Tangbao muttered in his heart, Mo Junye's face became more and more ugly, and his eyes became more and more fierce, "Miss Wu, the color of the clothes she wears is similar to yours, so you have to be aggressive?"

"Ah?" Wu Jiaoqun was stunned.

Except for a few people present at the time, no one else knew the reason.

How could the prince know this!

"No, how could that be?" She shook her head and argued.

"Just four!" Little Tangbao interrupted loudly.

She looked up at Mo Junye, her eyes full of admiration.

[Brother Ye is really smart. He guessed what happened without me even telling him.]

After hearing what Xiao Tangbao said, Mo Junye thought she was very cute, with a hint of smile in his eyes.

"Someone, bring a pair of scissors." Mo Junye said coldly.

He took the scissors and threw them in front of Wu Jiaoqun, "I can't do something like stripping a woman's clothes in public."

"Cut the clothes yourself."

"Ah!" Wu Jiaoqun was dumbfounded.

Although she didn't have to take off her clothes, for a noble lady like her, her clothes were full of holes and in disarray, which was a complete loss of face. She would not be able to hold her head up in the capital from now on.

"I was wrong. I really know I was wrong." Wu Jiaoqun kowtowed to Xiao Tangbao and grabbed the corner of Xiao Tangbao's clothes in a pleading manner. "I shouldn't have offended you and your maid like this."

Little Sugar Baby shook his head, "No."

"It's not because I'm a princess. She's mine. You don't take offense."

"Even if you are an ordinary person, you can't do that. If you are rude, bully others, and are mean, you will be beaten."

Looking at the little Tangbao speaking seriously in not very fluent words, Mo Junye just thought it was so adorable.

If there weren't so many people here, he would definitely rub little Tangbao's little face.

"Yes, I know I was wrong. My father will definitely punish me severely. Please forgive me, Your Highness." Wu Jiaoqun continued to beg bitterly.

"When you were about to strip her clothes off, why didn't you think about the fact that as a woman, it would be even more embarrassing for her to walk out with only her middle clothes on, and she would not be able to face anyone." Mo Junye said in a cold tone.

"But, but she is just a maid, she doesn't need any face." Wu Jiaoqun was about to burst into tears.

"Are maids not human beings? If you are a human being, you should have integrity and dignity." Mo Junye's face darkened. "Since you don't regard maids as human beings, maybe your father doesn't regard ordinary soldiers as human beings either."

"No, that's absolutely impossible!" Wu Jiaoqun was anxious.

If word got out that the soldiers' lives were disregarded, her father's official reputation would be ruined.

"Since your father wouldn't do this, then where did you learn this behavior?" Mo Junye insisted.

Seeing that Mo Junye wanted to punish her in front of everyone today, Wu Jiaoqun picked up the scissors and cried.

"I know I was wrong." As she said this, she cut her coat again and again.

This skirt is her favorite one. The exquisite embroidery on it took the embroiderer several days to complete.

But today, everything is going to be destroyed.

And once the skirt was damaged, she would lose all her face.

From now on, she was too ashamed to appear in front of those little sisters.

All of this was the fault of this little brat from the Yongyi Marquis's family. If it weren't for this piece of shit Princess Mingzhu who refused to say a word for her, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince wouldn't have insisted on punishing her for a maid.

The more he pulled at her clothes, the more resentment appeared in Wu Jiaoqun's eyes.

"Do you really know that you are wrong?" Little Tangbao asked in a low voice when she saw that Wu Jiaoqun had tacked her clothes so hard that there were holes everywhere.

"I know I was wrong." Wu Jiaoqun stopped crying and spoke each word carefully.

"Then you should apologize to Sister Chuntao." Xiaotangbao looked serious.

[Mother said that if you do something wrong, you must admit it. Like last time at home, she accidentally spilled water on the pattern that Mammy had just embroidered, and she immediately apologized to Mammy.]

"You..." Wu Jiaoqun gritted his teeth. This was really too much.

She, a county lord, was asked to apologize to a maid.

"It's okay, it's okay." Chuntao spoke kindly to smooth things over.

She herself knew her own identity, and she was very happy that Xiao Tangbao helped her vent her anger today.

Unexpectedly, Wu Jiaoqun glared at her fiercely and asked, "Do you want me to pretend to be a good person?"
