No one dared to speak ill of the Second Prince, and even Granny Yun was unable to defend herself, though she could not escape the blame for not serving him properly.
And didn't the Fujin take advantage of the chaos to bring the Second Prince back to the main courtyard?
Xilin Jueluo Shi simply stopped arguing and let Granny Yun help her down, only whispering as she passed Li Chenjiao.
"The concubine has just finished her postpartum confinement. She should take good care of her health and not harm herself. She is still so young, it's not worth it."
Li Chenjiao didn't even blink when she heard Xilin Jueluo's words, which contained a hidden curse.
"Now that Granny Yun can no longer serve the Second Prince, there is Granny Zhong left behind in the front courtyard when the Fourth Prince left. Granny Zhong is a highly skilled physician... Qiu Hu, go to the front courtyard and ask Granny Zhong to take care of the Second Prince. Before leaving the mansion, the Master repeatedly instructed me to take good care of the Second Prince. I was just following his orders, so please don't blame me, Madam."
After saying this, she gave Xilinjueluo a slight smile.
Xilinjueluo took a deep breath, seemingly trying to calm herself down. She stopped and quickly responded.
“It would be too much of a burden for the concubine to handle all this alone. The maidservant Qian is very capable, so I’d like to ask her to help the concubine.”
Li Chenjiao nodded slightly, calmly accepting Xilin Jueluo's words: "Madam is joking. I am merely wielding a feather as an arrow; how could I possibly make any decisions? The nanny by the Fujin's side is naturally the most capable."

Xilin Jueluo secretly clicked her tongue in amazement, but she could no longer stay and let Granny Yun help her away.
Before leaving, Granny Yun gave Li Chenjiao a grateful smile.
She could certainly say something back then, but it wasn't as effective as the concubine standing up for her.
At least Granny Yun remembered this kindness. Didn't you see those princesses standing around watching the whole thing?
Granny Yun helped Xilin Jueluo downstairs, and Li Chenjiao's gaze fell on Song and the others standing to the side.
