Chapter 249 Caning
As a medical researcher, her teacher is also leading her forward step by step.
After leaving the palace, Xu Miaomiao wanted to walk towards Nangong Mansion. She wanted to tell Nangong Jin that Mr. Zhuang was safe and sound, as a way of repaying her for helping her so many times. However, before she reached the place, she saw the servants and guards of the palace hurriedly catching up with her.
Xiao Si saw Xu Miaomiao and immediately pointed at her to the guards behind him.
The guards took out their swords and surrounded Xu Miaomiao in a circle.
"What happened?"
"Something has been lost in the palace, but only Madam Xu has been there today. Please ask Madam Xu to go with us."
Xu Miaomiao's eyes darkened and her heart skipped a beat. She had a bad feeling.
But now I have no choice but to leave with them. If we start a fight on the street, it will be even more difficult to deal with.
When they arrived at the palace, they saw Princess Duanjing had already tidied her clothes and sat in the main seat. At some point, Princess Jiahe also came and stood behind Princess Duanjing, looking at Xu Miaomiao proudly.
"Meet the princess, meet Princess Jiahe."
Seeing Xu Miaomiao coming, Princess Duan Jing laughed and said, "When Jiahe came back today, I wanted to give her the hairpin, but when the maid went to check, it was gone. But only Madam Xu came today, so I don't doubt Madam Xu's character, but it's better to check it out. Otherwise, Madam Xu will be blamed, and I will feel uneasy."
Xu Miaomiao put down the medicine box in her hand and said, "Since something is lost, Miaomiao should naturally check it out. Please!"
Princess Jiahe heard this and immediately took away Xu Miaomiao's medicine box and opened it. There was nothing else in it except some medicines and acupuncture cotton cloth. Princess Jiahe threw the medicine box on the ground with some disgust, then looked at Xu Miaomiao and said, "Who knows if you hid it on your body? Or somewhere, I have to search it carefully."
As she spoke, Princess Jiahe was about to pull Xu Miaomiao's belt. Seeing this, Xu Miaomiao quickly took a step back with a fierce look in her eyes: "Miaomiao may not have a high status in the capital, but she is still an official's wife. If you search her like this, wouldn't people think that Princess Duanjing is a mean person? She would frame others for a hairpin and even destroy a woman's innocence."
"That does make sense." Princess Duan Jing nodded and looked at Jiahe beside her.
Seeing this, Jiahe stood up and glared at Xu Miaomiao with dissatisfaction.
Princess Duan Jing sat up straight and continued, "But this hairpin was given to me by the late queen when she was alive. It is a gift from the emperor and is the most precious. If it is lost, wouldn't it be unfair to the late queen? What can Madam Xu do to such an unfaithful and unfilial person?"
"From what the princess said, this body must be searched today."
Xu Miaomiao sneered, and every word he said was piercing. Seeing that everyone in front of him was silent, Xu Miaomiao laughed and unbuttoned his clothes. As his outer robes fell off piece by piece, only his white inner garment was left.
Seeing that Xu Miaomiao had nothing on her, the princess smiled and said, "Madam Xu, what are you doing? I just wanted to find my hairpin. Why are you so radical? This makes it our fault."
Xu Miaomiao didn't want to continue to play along with her at this time, so she immediately said, "Princess, you don't have anything else to say, so Miaomiao will leave first."
"Let's go." Princess Duan Jing waved her hand unintentionally, but just as Xu Miaomiao stepped out of the door frame, she heard a cry of pain behind her. She wanted to leave, but she couldn't help but stand there and look back.
Princess Duanjing, who had been sitting peacefully before, suddenly fell to the ground in pain, her expression somewhat difficult to understand.
Seeing that Princess Zhuang Jiahe was also a little anxious, he immediately stepped forward and helped the princess up.
Xu Miaomiao also stepped forward, took the princess' hand, and began to take her pulse.
Then, regardless of his status, Youbie immediately took out a silver needle from the medicine box and tried it on Princess Duanjing twice. The woman who was originally in great pain suddenly became quiet and really fell asleep.
Princess Jiahe was immediately angry when she saw Xu Miaomiao randomly injecting needles into her mother. She pushed her to the ground and said, "Someone, arrest her for me."
At this time, Princess Jiahe looked at Xu Miaomiao with eyes full of resentment, and said viciously: "Go and call the imperial physician, then take this woman away and give her twenty big beatings."
When the maid next to her was about to drag Xu Miaomiao away, she glanced at Princess Duan Jing and saw that her originally pale face slowly turned rosy. She heaved a sigh of relief. Everything had returned to normal, so there was no need to worry about her life.
When being pressed on the long bench, Xu Miaomiao still had no remorse. As the servant's hand fell quickly and hit Xu Miaomiao's body, she bit her sleeve. Beads of sweat had already dripped down her forehead, and there was never a moment of relaxation between her painful brows.
Xu Miaomiao gritted her teeth and persevered. She had never expected that the caning would be so painful. It was probably the first time she had been punished like this in all the time she had been here!
As expected, in this capital city, one wrong step can lead to many wrong steps, so one must be careful.
Seeing Xu Miaomiao in such pain, Princess Jiahe on the steps forced a smile, looked at Xu Miaomiao and said, "Xu Miaomiao, if anything happens to my mother, I will beat you to death."
The pain had long made Xu Miaomiao unable to utter a word of rebuttal, and she could only let Princess Jiahe in front of her continue shouting.
She didn't know when Xiao Si stopped, but she had already fainted and was unconscious.
"Replying to the princess, she has fainted."
"Lock her up in a thatched house. No one is allowed to let her out without my order."
"yes."
This was the last sentence Xu Miaomiao heard. Perhaps because her body was in too much pain, the images of Dabao, Erbao, Xiaobao, and Gu Yuan's mother Song Weiwei's face flashed through Xu Miaomiao's mind. Finally, Song Wushao slowly came to her mind. She came to this world unexpectedly, so was she going back now?
But she didn't want to leave him and wanted to see them again. If she left, what would happen to her child, and what would happen to Gu Yuanniang and Song Weiwei?
I'm so unwilling...
As Xu Miaomiao slowly closed her eyes, the last bit of thought also disappeared.
Princess Jiahe looked at Xu Miaomiao being carried away and a smile appeared unconsciously on her lips. As long as she entered the Prince Jing's Mansion, she would have a way to prevent Xu Miaomiao from leaving again.
