The villagers glared angrily at the group of people. Their children had been hurt because of their actions. No matter their family circumstances, these children were the apple of their parents' eyes.
"Heavens! You heartless people, my daughter is only three years old!" Qingyan heard a pitiful cry and turned her head to see a woman in her twenties crying her eyes out.
Qingyan felt some pity for the child. Such a young girl, her life hadn't even begun, and it was almost destroyed.
"Fourth Prince, let Imperial Physician Yuan take a look at her. If she can be saved, that would be good. The child is young, she should be able to be saved." Qingyan whispered to Yin.
Looking at Qingyan's pleading eyes, Yin had to admit that he was becoming more and more tempted.
"Little darling, are you sure you want to heal them?" He looked at the children with burns; their condition might be very bad, and they would probably be left with some marks.
"Sisi, let's help if we can. We need to take good care of these children. Farmers value offspring. If a son has an accident, these people will probably pay for his treatment. But it's different for daughters."
If she hadn't stepped in to help, these girls probably wouldn't have had any good marriage prospects.
Yin exchanged a glance with her, and seeing her serious expression, he agreed.
"Little Darling, you go and talk to them." Seeing that the villagers were getting agitated, Yin made an excuse to let her go down from the platform first, in case someone was causing trouble behind their backs.
She obediently went to the imperial physician. The mothers of the girls were heartbroken; none of them were wealthy. The older generation would agree to let the medicine be used for their sons' injuries, but if it were a little girl…
"How is the child?" Qingyan asked the imperial physician in a low voice.
“Princess, the situation isn’t good. If it were a few boys, scars on their faces wouldn’t be a big deal, but it’s a bit troublesome for the girls. They’ll need to use pearl cream for at least three months!” Tiao Yi was also a bit worried, as pearl cream wasn’t something ordinary families could afford.
"You've diagnosed all the girls' conditions clearly. I'll cover the medical expenses for the girl whose face was injured." As soon as Qingyan finished speaking, the young woman, whose child was also injured, protested because several children had been burned.
"Princess, you can't do this! You have to treat everyone equally!" A woman carrying her son walked over.
Qingyan looked at her coldly, thinking that there were plenty of stunners out there.
"I said, treating those with facial injuries is just a small act of kindness on my part. It's not our responsibility. You trusted the traitor, so you should be held accountable." Qingyan's cold words stopped the women who wanted to step forward.
"Heavens above! Look at this little brat who dares to bully us! She's making life impossible for us common folk!" The woman wanted to make a big scene, refusing to pay the money.
Yin had been keeping a close eye on the situation here. He narrowed his eyes when he saw Xiao Guai being wronged.
"Su Peisheng, bring the princess here. Tell the imperial physicians to stop seeing patients. Village chief, we should handle this officially. Listen up, these are traitors. All those involved should be imprisoned and await the government's investigation." The prefect stood beside Yin, listening, and couldn't help but feel sorry for the princess. These incompetent officials had actually allowed her to suffer such injustice.
As soon as the words were spoken, the imperial physicians put down the patients they were holding, and the crying woman was stunned.
"Hehe, do you think you deserve the princess's kindness? You trusted the traitor and provided him with convenience. How did the village market come about?" Su Xin had only wanted to make Qing Yan happy, but the woman's words made them grit their teeth in hatred.
At this moment, all the people of Liangjia Village were gathered together, and the children shed tears.
"The girls can stay here for now. Those who came up to cause trouble don't need any more treatment," Yin said as he approached Qingyan.
After explaining everything, he forcibly dragged Qingyan onto the carriage.
These foolish women, Qingyan's kindness should not be taken advantage of like this.
"Si Si, did I do something wrong?" Qing Yan was protected by Fei Yang Gu and rarely had the opportunity to encounter such unreasonable people.
The carriage left, followed by curses. Several women's homes were now hated by the villagers.
"Little darling, not everyone can appreciate your good intentions, understand?" Yin looked at Qingyan. Putting aside everything else, when it comes to matters involving money, one absolutely cannot be careless.
She hung her head, feeling somewhat dejected.
"I shouldn't have overthought it!" Qingyan pounded her head in frustration, resenting her own soft heart.
Seeing that Xiao Guai was in low spirits, Yin's mood worsened as well.
"Yes, I really overthought it!" Qingyan pouted.
Yin leaned back in his chair and let her rest her head in his arms, slowly calming her down.
"Fourth Brother, will Father find out about these things?" Qingyan muttered softly. If Fei Yanggu found out, he would definitely not let those people off the hook. In the eyes of Fei Yanggu and his two sons, no matter what, Qingyan should not be wronged.
Yin smiled. Saito was right next to him. He deliberately left Saito behind to clean up the mess, knowing those people would definitely not get away with it.
"Hehe, I already know. Isn't Saito here?" Yin originally wanted to do as Qingyan suggested, so that those people would remember Qingyan's kindness.
He had previously guessed that the women would probably make things difficult for Qingyan, but he never expected that there would be such an extraordinary person among them.
Waaaaah!
Qingyan's little face scrunched up. With her second brother there, everything would surely be revealed to their father exactly as it was.
This is really terrible!
"If we go back, Father will scold me again!" Qingyan's little face scrunched up, and she was internally complaining.
Qingyan covered her face and nestled in his arms, her little mouth tightly pursed. This was terrible.
The future looks bleak.
"Don't worry, I'm here. I won't let Fourth Uncle say anything to you." Yin shook his head. This little guy clearly wanted to bury his head in the sand.
Qingyan pursed his lips. He always said nice things, but with his father's gloomy face, this guy definitely wouldn't care anymore.
"Hmph, do you think I don't know you?" Qingyan sneered.
Yin laughed, having completely forgotten about what had just happened.
The carriage moved slowly forward, and Qingyan secretly turned the camera to the open space.
With a gloomy expression, Saito watched as the constables led the people away one by one, his gaze growing even colder.
Xiao Guai was kind-hearted and thought of them. Girls are not well received in farmhouses, and she had already taken care of everything. But these people were just making trouble on the sidelines.
Qingyan nestled happily in his arms; her father and the others were really too protective of her.
"Fourth Brother, I will never be soft-hearted again!" Qingyan realized that if the rumors spread back to the capital, it might put Fourth Brother and Father in a passive position.
The other princes wouldn't care whether the matter was true or false; their best leverage was to attack Yinzhen.
"Hmm, every woman in the palace is more ruthless than you!" Yin sighed. (To be continued. If you like this work, please vote for it on Qidian. Your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users please go to m.qidian.com to read.)
