After explaining these matters, Jian Qingqing took the two dolls and planned to enter the palace to look for Princess Anning.
The dolls made by Little Liu were very exquisite and had very good embroidery skills. Her hair was also made of gold thread. She had also made many beautiful clothes for the dolls, allowing Princess Anning to dress up to her heart’s content.
The carriage slowly walked on the street, but unexpectedly, it suddenly braked. The body of the carriage swayed for a moment, and Jian Qingqing was sitting in the carriage. Suddenly, she was hit on the head by the bump.
Nanny Wu hurriedly lifted the curtain and asked anxiously, “Princess, are you okay?”
Jian Qingqing shook her head and asked, “What happened?”
The coachman quickly said, “Princess, a person suddenly fell in front of the carriage. This servant didn’t do it on purpose.”
Jian Qingqing frowned and looked outside. There was a girl lying in front of the horse. The girl’s clothes were ragged and she was covered in wounds. There were already people surrounding her and pointing at her.
At this time, a woman suddenly ran up. The woman was dressed in red and green. Her face was covered in makeup and she was pale, but her lips were bright red. However, she looked fierce. She grabbed the girl and slapped her.
“You dare to run! I’ll beat you to death! You were sold to me by your uncle, so you’re mine! If you want to escape, don’t even think about it!”
The girl no longer had the strength to resist. She weakly fell to the ground and did not even struggle.
Jian Qingqing frowned as she watched this scene. It was not that she did not know about some dark places in this era, but she did not expect that she would encounter such a thing one day. She was sold by her uncle and sold to that kind of place, any other girl would not be able to accept it.
However, since she had encountered it, she could not help but stop it. She coldly berated, “Stop!’
The madam who was hitting the person was stunned. Only then did she clearly see where she was hitting the person. She was obviously blocking the noble’s carriage!
Instantly, cold sweat flowed down, and her heart became even more resentful of the girl on the ground.
She was afraid of offending the person, so she immediately nodded and bowed, saying, “This peasant is really sorry! This lowly one will leave now! I will leave now!”
As she said that, she was about to drag the young girl on the ground and leave.
Jian Qingqing frowned and said, “Stop! Did I say to let you leave?
The lady’s retreating figure immediately froze, and her legs trembled even more violently. She turned around and immediately knelt down, saying, “I was really wrong. Please spare my life, My Lady!’
As she said that, she kowtowed repeatedly. She did not even dare to raise her head to look at Jian Qingqing.
Jian Qingqing did not expect her to be so scared that her forehead was about to break.
Although the madam was not a good person, she was still doing business normally. After all, she was the one who bought the young girl back.
She said coldly, “Alright, leave the girl on the ground behind.”
The madam was as if she had been pardoned and immediately ran away in pleasant surprise. She did not even turn her head back, afraid that she would get into trouble again.
As for the young girl on the ground, she did not care anymore. That nobleman must have wanted to torture her even more! Who asked her to stop the nobleman’s carriage?
Jian Qingqing looked at the young girl on the ground and said, “Old Wang, carry her into the carriage.”
Old Wang was the coachman. He was stunned and frowned as he said hesitantly, “Princess, isn’t this inappropriate?”
Jian Qingqing also felt that it was inappropriate. After all, she did not know the identity of the young girl. If she were to rashly get into the carriage for her, what if the other party had done something to harm her?
She thought for a moment and ordered, “Xiao Chun, Xiao Lu, the two of you take her to the medical center. Also, get someone to check her identity..”
