Chapter 395: Chapter 395, Nishang met with danger

Late at night.

It was the first time that Qiao Nishang and Qiao Nishang had spent the night in the palace. The wet nurse beside them was not allowed to enter the palace.

This was the first time that there was no wet nurse beside them, so they could only sleep by themselves. The two of them played until they were almost ugly, but they did not feel sleepy at all.

Qiao Jinniang pushed the door open and entered. Seeing that the two children were still not asleep, she said, “Ruohan told me that you are not sleeping at this hour, how can you be unfamiliar with strangers?”

Qiao nihong said, “Aunt, I’m going to sleep now.”

Little Nichang also covered her head with the blanket and said, “Aunt, I’m going to sleep too.”

Qiao Jinniang smiled gently. Seeing that the two had fallen asleep, she tiptoed away.

As soon as the palace door closed, Qiao Nichang was woken up by the noise. She liked to fall asleep listening to songs. In the past, her father would sing songs for her, and in the past, Uncle Xie would climb over the wall to sing songs for her.

Qiao Nichang called out to her sister softly, but when Qiao Nichang did not wake up, she heard footsteps again. She thought that the empress aunt had returned, so she closed her eyes.

However, children could not pretend to sleep. She simply lay under the blanket and covered her head with the blanket. She saw a small figure coming over.

…

She walked to their side and pushed the lantern rack on the side onto the bed.

Just as the oil lamp was about to fall on Qiao Nihong, she quickly got out of bed and supported the fallen lantern frame.

After the lantern frame was straightened, the lantern fell to the ground and started burning.

“Sister Xiaoxiao, you can’t Sleep and came to play with us? You have to be careful. If this lantern frame falls, it will catch fire!”

Xue Xiaoxiao deliberately lured the palace maids away from the door. She sneaked in to destroy the appearance of the two sisters.

Otherwise, if they really became Lu Ang’s little princess consort, she would be finished in the future.

However, she did not expect Qiao Nishang to see it. Xue Xiaoxiao was not sure whether Qiao Nishang had seen through her scheme or whether she really did not know if she did it on purpose just now. No, she had to strike first!

“Someone, someone, Qiao Nishang is going to set fire to Princess Neon Rainbow!”

Xue Xiaoxiao screamed loudly.

Qiao Nishang was only four or five years old and was very innocent. However, at this time, she also knew that she had been falsely accused. “You’re talking nonsense. It was clearly you who bumped into the lantern frame!”

Xue Xiaoxiao was the first to complain loudly. “It was you, it was you. It was you who knocked down the lantern frame. Quick, someone come!”

Xue Xiaoxiao had forgotten that the palace maid had been lured away by her. Hence, she took a small lantern from the lantern rack and wanted to throw it at Qiao Nishang’s face, she planned to burn Qiao Nishang’s face with fire.

However, the design of the lantern was complicated. When Xue Xiaoxiao took it down, she did not remove the chassis from the lantern rack. The Candle in the lantern fell on Xue Xiaoxiao’s head, igniting her hair.

“Ah! Help! Help!”

The shrill cries were very fierce.

When the palace maids and internal servants rushed over one after another, they saw that Xue Xiaoxiao’s long hair had been burned away. Her scalp had turned completely burnt red, and the skin on her forehead was covered with large blisters.

When the palace maids saw this scene, the timid ones’legs went limp and they collapsed to the ground.

Xue Xiaoxiao was the direct granddaughter of the Jing public house, and her status was incomparably noble. She had been making a fuss in the middle of the night to eat this and that, so the palace maids could only do as she was told. They were afraid that they had treated Xue Xiaoxiao too slowly.

But they had not expected such a thing to happen.

Something Big had happened in the palace. Lanterns were lit up everywhere, as if it was daytime.

When Lady Qiao heard about this, she came over worriedly. She first went to the main hall to take a look at the sleeping ang’er and then let out a sigh of relief. She ordered someone to take good care of Ang’er and then went to the side hall.

In the side hall, the imperial physicians were already treating Xue Xiaoxiao. A few imperial physicians looked troubled. When they saw Lady Qiao come in, they bowed and said, “Greetings, your Majesty.”

Lady Qiao walked to the side of Little Nichang and held her hand. She asked, “How is Miss Xue’s condition?”

“Your Majesty, Miss Xue’s scalp has been severely burned by the fire. In the future, there may be scars on her scalp and not even a single hair will grow out. Moreover, I’m afraid that there will be scars on her forehead!”

Xue Xiaoxiao, who was already in pain, burst into tears when she heard this. “I don’t want to be ugly. I don’t want to be ugly. Your Majesty, it’s her. She used the lantern to hurt me.”

Xue Xiaoxiao stretched out a finger and pointed at little nichang.

Qiao jinniang asked little nichang, “Did you hurt this sister?”

Little Nichang shook her head. “No, aunt. She picked up the lantern. The candle fell on her hair and caught fire.”

Xue Xiaoxiao said, “Nonsense. Why would I hurt myself for no reason? You are a treacherous daughter. You must be jealous of my background and hurt me on purpose so that you can take revenge for me destroying your painting.”

Little Nichang looked at Qiao Jinniang in confusion and said, “Auntie, mother said that good children are not allowed to lie. Why does sister Xiaoxiao keep lying? Mother said that lying will make you ugly.”

Qiao Jinniang looked at the lamp stand and said to little nichang, “Nichang, you’re so obedient. Do you want to Go Home?”

Little Nichang shook her head and said, “I promised brother Ang that I would stay for one night. I’ll play with him tomorrow morning.”

Qiao jinniang said, “Alright, you and sister Nichang sleep together obediently.”

Qiao Jinniang’s voice was extremely cold as she said, “Someone send young master Xue and Miss Xue Back to the Jing public house. In the future, the children of the Xue family are not allowed to enter the palace.”

“Yes,”the palace servants replied.

..

After the palace gates were locked, unless there was a major event, the palace gates would not be opened. When the Xue family heard that someone had come from the palace, they were all worried about what had happened.

When the second young mistress of the Xue family saw her daughter being sent back without any hair and the red and rotten look on her forehead, she was so scared that she nearly fainted.

“My son, who was so cruel to hurt you to such a state? Didn’t you go into the palace? How could this be? The people in the palace…”

The eldest young mistress of the Xue family berated her second brother and sister-in-law, “Stop talking nonsense.”

The eldest young mistress of the Xue family gave a silver ingot to the palace servant and said, “Eunuch suffered a great deal and sent my son back. I wonder what happened in the palace? How could he be injured when he was perfectly fine?”

The palace servant said, “I don’t know about that. It’s just that the Empress has ordered that the young master of the Xue family and Miss Sun of the Xue family are not allowed to enter the palace again in the future.”

The eldest young mistress of the Xue family was dumbfounded. It was not easy for her son to become the second Prince’s study companion. It was such a good thing, but if he was not allowed to enter the palace now, wouldn’t her son’s future be ruined?

After the palace servant left, the eldest young mistress asked Xue Xiaoxiao in a bad mood, “What exactly did you do in the Palace?”

Xue Xiaoxiao threw herself into the arms of the second young mistress of the Xue family in fear and said, “Mother, it’s Qiao Nichang, that treacherous birth daughter. She knocked over the lampstand and wanted to harm Princess Nihon. After I found out, she used a candle to hit me. Mother, you have to make justice for me!”

The second young mistress of the Xue family was furious when she heard that. “Qiao Ruoi’s Daughter? She’s just like her mother. Back then, she got pregnant out of wedlock. Her daughter is just as Shameless. Xiaoxiao, don’t be afraid. Mother will definitely seek justice for you.”
