Wen Niang was so frightened that she almost lost her soul. She rushed over and tried to comfort and call out to her, and even dared to pat the little master's bottom.
But there was no response.
Everyone panicked. Wen Niang, without even asking what was going on, immediately ran to report to Song Xibai.
After listening, Song Xibai turned his gaze to the two wet nurses who were kneeling a little further away.
"The young master hasn't woken up all morning, didn't either of you think there was a problem?"
"This servant thought the young masters didn't sleep well last night..."
"This servant also... just wanted the young masters to sleep a little longer..."
The two spoke almost simultaneously.
Song Xibai rubbed her temples.
All four of them were at fault.
But I was also wrong. I shouldn't have ignored it and left the child with them.
This is a child I risked half my life to have.
After nine months of hardship and anxiety, the baby was finally born safely...
If something happened to either of them, Song Xibai felt she would definitely go crazy.
She couldn't believe what she saw.
After taking several deep breaths and forcing himself to calm down, Song Xibai began to give orders.
"Wei Hong, first send someone to the Ding family to ask Ding Xiang to come back."
“According to palace rules, if someone fails to serve properly, everyone in this side hall will receive ten strokes of the cane, and the four wet nurses will receive double the punishment.”
"Also, tell Granny Fangqi to select a few new wet nurses as soon as possible."
As orders were given, people quickly came in and pulled everyone out of the hall.
Beating someone up on the first day of the Lunar New Year might not sound good to others, but Song Xibai didn't care.
Of the four wet nurses, the two who took over made even bigger mistakes, and Song Xibai didn't want to keep them any longer.
Although Wen Niang was also at fault, she reported it immediately after discovering it, which showed that she was responsible, so Song Xibai did not let her leave.
As for Jin the wet nurse, she was straightforward and honest. Among so many people, she was the only one who dared to speak up for Wen Niang, so she was considered useful and was also kept on.
After everyone was dragged out, Song Xibai looked at the two children with affection, her heart breaking.
"It's all my fault... I will never let you out of my sight again."
Song Xibai gently stroked the foreheads of the two children, her eyes gradually reddening.
Upon receiving the news, Dingxiang rushed into the palace without even having time to pack her things.
As soon as she entered the room, she saw Song Xibai lying on the bed, her shoulders heaving, clearly crying.
Dingxiang was so startled she almost tripped over the threshold.
Am I late?
She said in a trembling voice.
Hearing her voice, Song Xibai looked up, hastily wiped her face, and called out to her urgently.
"Dingxiang, come quickly and take a look!"
