Your Highness's Beloved Medical-skilled Princess novel Chapter 59

Queen Chu looked at Poly in surprise. "What did you hear wrong? I asked you to return the Southern Pearls. How did you report it?"

"Your Grace..." Poly's lips turned pale and she trembled violently. "I thought that Princess Chu sent the Southern Pearl for Prince Yu. So I said that Princess Chu would like to ask you to speak up for Prince Yu."

Queen Chu was furious. "How dare you guess randomly? How dare you!"

Queen Chu suddenly calmed down. Poly had followed her for many years who had always been calm. It was impossible for her to say anything nonsense in front of The Emperor.

She immediately thought of Chu Mingcui.

Chu Mingcui had proposed to find Queen Xian before, but she thought that there was no need to go against Queen Xian for the time being. Since Queen Xian was the Queen Mother's niece, they would probably get in trouble if they offended her.

Emperor Mingyuan's face darkened. How could Poly dare? Thinking of it might be the Queen's order, he glanced at the Queen's face coldly.

Queen Chu had no choice but to stand out and slap Poly and said angrily, "How dare you! How dare you tell His Majesty about your wild guesses? Do you want to die?"

Poly knelt on the ground and did not dare to cover her face. She just cried, "Your Majesty, please forgive me, Your Majesty!"

Emperor Mingyuan ordered expressionlessly, "Guards, drag Yu Bao down and flog her heavily 30 times."

Although Empress Chu felt sorry for Nurse Xi, she could not speak up for her. She had to say indignantly, "It's a favor to you. Thank His Majesty immediately."

Poly kowtowed, shaking with fright. She said with a pale face, "Thank you for your punishment, Your Majesty."

Yu Bao was dragged out. After a while, there were crackling sounds of staff beating and groans outside.

Empress Chu's expression was calm but her heart was burning with anxiety, scolding Chu Mingcui for being reckless in her heart.

Queen Xian was now watching the fun. She had thought that her daughter-in-law would fawn over the Empress and humiliate her. However, she did not expect it was so complicated that she had to take it seriously.

Emperor Mingyuan looked at Yuan Qingling with complicated emotions in his eyes.

This matter could not be questioned any further. Even if Yuan Qingling had ordered Nurse Xi to send the Southern Pearls, he could only let it go.

He was afraid that something unexpected would happen.

After all, Nurse Xi was the people who followed the Retired Emperor for a long time. He couldn't make any mistakes, lest the retired emperor get angry and being sick.

After thinking for a while, he said lightly, "Since everything is clear and the one who makes mistakes has been punished. You can all go back."

The Empress knew that The Emperor had misunderstood her and thought that she was trying to frame Yu Wenhao. However, it was useless to defend herself. She should ask Chu Mingcui and make it clear, so she left in a hurry.

Queen Xian glanced at Yuan Qingling and left. She already knew how things stand, but The Emperor obviously did not want to reveal the true face of the fake peace. The royal family needed to keep its prestige.

Nurse Xi also wanted to leave, but Yuan Qingling said, "Nurse Xi, I have something to ask you."

Emperor Mingyuan warned, "Princess Chu, let's call it a day."

Yuan Qingling changed her calmness and said seriously, "Father, it is a very important question which must be clear at all."

Nurse Xi looked at Yuan Qingling and said indifferently, "What do you want to say, My Lady? Didn't you ask me to send the Southern Pearls to the Kun Palace? But if you don't admit it, I'll take it as my own decision. I'll accept the punishment."

Yuan Qingling looked at her and said, "We all know if you're the one who made the decision, but what I want to ask you is why you changed the old emperor's Activation Pill and then framed Paul."

As soon as she said that, Emperor Mingyuan's face suddenly turned cold. "Princess Chu, what are you talking about?"

Yuan Qingling looked at Emperor Mingyuan and said, "Your Majesty, no matter how bold I am, I dare not make up a story and frame a retainer of the Retired Emperor."

Emperor Mingyuan was stunned. Since she was too bold, he believed that she must have something evidence.

Yuan Qingling turned to stare at Nurse Xi. "The Retired Emperor must have treated you well. Why did you want to kill him?"
