Half a month later, Yin and his entourage were the first to arrive outside Yangzhou City. In the nearby county town of Jihe, Yin and his brothers checked directly into the Yuelai Inn.
Qingyan helplessly directed the servants to begin preparing the necessary items, while Yinzhi sent a servant to request that a doctor be invited over.
"Little Darling, you don't need to worry about this!" Yin was too lazy to respond to Yin Zhi's request. Qing Yan wasn't the steward and didn't have time to deal with these things.
Pfft!
"Fourth Brother, you're being unfair! Your elder brother discussed with you about having Imperial Physician Yuan keep an eye on Emperor Kangxi. Now, Yinzhi's injuries are getting worse, and you're stopping him here!" Qingyan smiled.
"This is to teach Yinzhi a lesson. Even though I'm exhausted this time, I didn't let anyone fall behind. What kind of words did Yinzhi say!" Yin was really angry. Yin's legs were bad; it was as if he had been drugged in the womb.
"If you stop him, and Yinzhi's injuries worsen, what will Father Emperor do..." Qingyan was worried that Yinzhi would be reprimanded by Kangxi.
"No, Father Emperor certainly won't say anything to me." Kangxi had long been prepared to teach Yinzhi a lesson.
"That's good!" Qingyan's words had barely faded when Sulan's voice rang out from outside.
"Your Majesty, the Third Princess Consort has arrived!" Su Lan reported directly.
When Dong'e Gege tried to approach Qingyan, Yin blocked her, telling her to think about her identity before they could discuss anything.
"Let her in!" After hearing what Dong'e Gege said, Yinzhi immediately ordered a servant to go to the mansion and invite the Third Princess Consort over.
The Third Princess Consort was part of the group that arrived the day before yesterday, so you've already been dispatched by Yin Zhi.
"Yes!" Su Lan went to fetch the person immediately.
Aside from banquets in the palace, Qingyan rarely met with the Third Prince's wife. Yin stood up, walked directly around the screen, and went to the study next door.
"Fourth sister-in-law, this place is quite nice!" The Third Princess Consort came in and looked around Qingyan's courtyard. It was really nice here, not like an inn, but the residence of a wealthy family.
“I have a courtyard at every Yuelai Inn. You’ve come here to…” Qingyan picked up the tea that Sulan had brought and asked directly.
"It's like this, sister-in-law. I hope you can ask the manager to find a doctor for the master. Princess Dong'e didn't take good care of him, and he got injured. I... just arrived here and am unfamiliar with the place, so..." The Third Princess knew she was asking for a favor, so she naturally lowered her stance.
Qingyan paused for a moment, holding her teacup. Yin's guess was indeed correct; the Third Princess Consort had come to request the summoning of the Imperial Physician.
"This... Father Emperor said before that we absolutely cannot consult a doctor outside, for fear that someone might tamper with the medicine!" Qingyan said directly.
Before leaving Beijing, Kangxi instructed Yinzhi and Qingyan not to hire any other doctors.
Upon hearing this, the Third Prince's wife immediately became dejected. Kangxi had spoken beforehand, but he hadn't mentioned this to Yinzhi. It seemed that he had specifically instructed Yinzhi.
"Sister-in-law, what do you mean by that..." the Third Princess Consort asked, puzzled.
“I had three children with me, didn’t I? When I went to pay my respects that day, Father Emperor was with Mother Emperor, so he gave me some advice, saying that the other princes should also be extra careful!” Qingyan said directly.
The Third Prince's wife was stunned. It turned out it was all about the twins. Yinzhi was in real trouble now. He had previously told everyone that he had twisted his ankle, but in reality, he had been ambushed.
Imperial Physician Yuan had left behind some medicine, but Yin Zhi hadn't taken it seriously and hadn't used it on time. Now, his injuries had become quite severe.
“Sister-in-law, Princess Dong’e isn’t good at taking care of people. Master’s injuries are quite serious, and Imperial Physician Yuan has been summoned away by the Emperor’s decree. Do you think anyone has a doctor in their courtyard?” The Third Princess dared not disobey Kangxi’s decree, so she had no choice but to settle for second best.
"After my eighth sister-in-law, Hafeng'a was also sent to me later. When the children were sent to Father Emperor, the physician who came with us also went there!" Qingyan noticed that the Third Princess Consort looked expectant, so she had no choice but to hand over this favor to Lady Jueluo.
"Really!" The Third Princess Consort was very surprised. Qingyan's words were clearly a veiled indication of the way.
"Third Sister-in-law, you should go and check on them quickly. If you wait any longer, the young couple might leave. They're newlyweds, unlike us old folks!" Qingyan said with a smile, covering her mouth.
Upon hearing this, the Third Prince's wife quickly exchanged a few pleasantries and then left.
Qingyan watched the Third Princess's hurried departure and laughed unkindly. The Jue Luo family had a 'quirk': they would never lend out the family's physician.
"Why are you laughing so happily?" Yin came out of the study and saw Qingyan laughing so hard he was almost falling over.
"Fourth Prince, I've sent the person to the Jue Luo family. In a bit, we can watch the show!" Qingyan wasn't lying. Her own family's physician had left with the twins. Several mansions had their own physicians, and it was understandable that the Eighth Prince's wife, who didn't have any children, was still alive.
"Su Peisheng, go and talk to the eldest brother, the fifth brother, and the seventh brother, so they know what to do and divide the fruit on the table into three portions!" The shopkeeper specially prepared fresh fruit for Qingyan.
"Yes!" Su Peisheng took the fruit and left.
"Sisi, if we only have Su Peisheng deliver three portions, is that not enough?" Qingyan glanced at it. "How about we deliver them to everyone?"
"Hmm!" Yin nodded. "However, having Su Peisheng deliver them all is a bit too much."
"Sulan, go prepare some fruit. We'll deliver the rest to the courtyards later!" Qingyan covered her mouth and laughed.
Su Lan left immediately, and only then did Yin and Qing Yan relax.
"Fourth Prince, why did the Third Prince Consort come at this time?" Qingyan couldn't understand why Yinzhi wanted the Third Prince Consort to come at this time. Didn't he say before that Princess Dong'e would accompany him?
“It was I who suggested that someone of your status in the Third Master’s residence speak to him. That’s why Yinzhi sent his wife over. Look, she’s already here to find a doctor for the Third Master.” Yinzhi said directly.
"Is the Third Princess Consort the steward? Princess Dong'e has caused so much trouble, how come she hasn't fallen out of favor at all?" Qingyan asked, puzzled.
"This is what it means to be attracted to someone!" Yin could only say.
"Pfft, that works too. I don't think Princess Dong'e is anything special, except for being too pretentious," Qingyan muttered to herself.
Yin did not speak, but listened to Qingyan muttering to himself.
"Little darling, stop focusing on these things!" Yin said cheerfully. "Let's talk about it first, shall we go out with Hafeng tomorrow?"
Yin liked to take the children out for walks. It was good for the children's growth to have them explore the world from a young age!
"Okay!" Qingyan had been holding back for a while and happily agreed.
"I sent someone to investigate; there are several flower boat markets nearby!" Qingyan likes flower arranging, so this is a good opportunity for her to pass the time in her spare moments.
