As soon as Birui asked someone to call a doctor, the news immediately reached the ears of Prince Rui and Princess Rui.
Before Birui could send someone to deliver the letter to them, the two of them had already arrived, one after the other.
"What's wrong? Where are you hurt?" Princess Rui ran straight to Qingtian as soon as she entered the room, hugged him in her arms and checked him up and down.
Prince Rui came right after, and when he saw that the seat next to his daughter was occupied by the princess, he stood by the bed and kept blaming himself, saying, "I said at the beginning, what bullshit rules are you learning? How can my daughter not have rules?
"I can walk normally, but I have to practice walking.
"That's great! I got injured after just one day of learning. What kind of thing is this?
"My dear Qingtian, does it hurt? Tomorrow morning, Daddy will go to the palace and tell your uncle to waive this order. We won't learn this broken rule anymore.
"Even if you are crowned a princess, so what? You don't live in the palace, so why do you have to endure this torture?"
The couple looked at the bean-sized blister on Qingtian's white and tender toes, and they felt so distressed that tears were about to fall.
Qingtian was also confused by their reactions. If she hadn't had blisters on her body from being rubbed or burned before, she would have been used to it. Otherwise, she would have thought she had some serious illness.
Although he didn't quite understand, when he saw Princess Rui's tears welling up in her eyes, Qingtian quickly reached out to wipe her tears.
"Don't cry, mother. It's just a small blister. It's nothing serious. Just squeeze it and wait for it to dry up on its own."
Before Qingtian finished speaking, he reached out and squeezed the blisters on his feet.
"oops!"
"Quick, bring me a clean handkerchief!"
"Is it painful?"
"Where's the doctor? Why hasn't he come yet? What are you standing here for? Hurry up and urge him!"
The room suddenly became chaotic.
Birui quickly took out a clean handkerchief to help Qingtian wipe the wound, but she didn't dare to use force, so she could only lightly touch the surface of the wound a little bit at a time.
Princess Rui's expression was distorted at that moment, as if she had been stabbed by someone.
Prince Rui cursed loudly and asked why the doctor had not arrived yet.
The doctor almost tripped in fright as he reached the door, and stumbled a bit before he could steady himself.
He didn't dare to delay at all and hurried into the house carrying the medicine box.
So Qingtian watched helplessly as her little toe was applied with medicine and wrapped tightly.
"Don't let the wound get wet, and don't press or touch it. I'll come back tomorrow to change the bandage for you, princess."
After the doctor left, Qingtian looked at his little toe, which was wrapped up tightly, and said helplessly, "Father, Mother, this little injury is really nothing.
“When I was a kid in the village, my shoes didn’t fit my feet well and I often got blisters from them, but I got used to it.
"Don't worry about it, it will be fine soon."
Unexpectedly, after hearing these words, Princess Rui was not comforted, but her tears fell even faster.
"Good boy, I really made you suffer in the past."
Qingtian was held in her arms and could not move. She could only pat her back with her small hands and comfort her, "Mother, it's really okay. Those things are all in the past.
“Now I don’t have any calluses on my feet.
"If the calluses from the initial wear were still there, I might not have gotten blisters this time."
After hearing what Qingtian said, Prince Rui suddenly remembered, "Where are the shoes? Who made them? How can they rub my feet?"
"Dad, maybe my feet have grown bigger!" Qingtian said, "They were a perfect fit a while ago, but recently they feel a little tight.
“But I can barely walk a few steps in and out every day, so I don’t mind if it’s a little smaller.
“I didn’t expect it to have reached the point where it would wear out my feet.
"It's all my fault. I should have told Birui from the beginning to change into a pair of shoes that fit her feet earlier. Maybe she wouldn't have gotten blisters today."
Prince Rui quickly said, "Silly child, this is not your fault, and you don't need to reflect on it. This is what Birui and the servants should do."
Princess Rui also glared at Bi Rui with dismay and said, "Who said it wasn't true? She changes your clothes and shoes every morning. Don't you even know that your shoes are too tight?"
Birui was so scared that she fell to her knees and apologized repeatedly.
"My Lord, Princess, this is all my fault. I wasn't attentive enough in serving the princess.
"Please forgive me this time. I will take better care of the princess from now on."
Princess Rui didn't wait for Qingtian to plead for Birui, and took the opportunity to speak first: "Qingtian, I think the reason for this problem is mainly because there are too few people around you.
"Birui is alone, even if she puts all her energy into you, she can't take care of everything.
"If there were more people around you to take care of you, maybe this wouldn't have happened."
Qingtian still didn't understand how the topic turned to this matter, but she understood that Princess Rui wanted to have more people around her.
Seeing Qingtian lowered his head and said nothing, Princess Rui had to give in again and said, "Don't worry, Birui will still follow you from now on. The others will be responsible for helping Birui with things. I won't let them cause trouble in front of you, okay?"
After hearing this, Qingtian finally nodded and agreed to it.
I thought it was an exaggeration that such a small matter had become such a big deal, but Prince Rui went to the palace in person the next day to explain the situation to the emperor, and asked for leave for Qingtian, exempting him from the task of learning the rules in the past few days.
The emperor didn't expect that the child would be injured just after learning the rules for a day, so he quickly ordered someone to send a bunch of supplements and medicinal herbs to Prince Rui's mansion.
