As noon approached, no one was in the mood for food. The twins and Hafeng were taken care of, while everyone else was left hungry and exposed to the scorching sun. Yu Yushi tried to bind her son's legs according to the tightness of her own bindings. As soon as she put them on, the child started crying. It was definitely not comfortable to be so comfortable.
Madam Yu was very anxious. Her child was not tied up, and Yin was eyeing her covetously. There was no way to give the child any more care.
"Imperial Physician Yuan, go and take a look!" Yin saw Imperial Physician Yuan coming out of the inner palace and asked him to take a look at the child and see what was wrong with him.
Imperial Physician Yuan unwrapped the bandages and examined the child's legs; there were still bluish marks on the genitals.
"This won't do. If it's kept bound, even walking on its own two legs will be a problem!" Imperial Physician Yuan glanced at it and was very unhappy. What was going on?
Yin glanced at the child, who had been untied and was crying even more heartbreakingly, more so than Hafenga.
"You used a bit too much force, so the child's knee is a little sprained. I'll apply some ointment to it in a bit!" Physician Yuan Yiqiao assured him directly.
"Impossible!" Mrs. Yu couldn't believe that her son had actually gotten sick.
The old women felt even more uneasy after hearing what Imperial Physician Yuan said; otherwise, none of this would have happened.
"Master, I really don't know!" The nanny burst into tears, revealing that she had been extremely cruel lately.
Yu's tearful plea did not soften Yin and Qingyan's hearts. If Hutuli Fengsheng Zhalafen had not discovered this time, would something have happened?
"Young Master is injured, can you afford to compensate him?" Yin looked at the nanny coldly.
"This servant is guilty, this servant is guilty!" Madam Yu kowtowed immediately. "Master, please let Imperial Physician Yuan cure this servant's son!"
Looking at Yu Shi's misty eyes, Qingyan couldn't help but think that these nannies were all quiet, able to cry without even getting their eyes wet.
"This servant really wouldn't dare to lay a hand on the young masters!" Yu Shi bound Ha Feng's legs for the first time, and it was only on this one day that Qing Yan and the others discovered it.
"Physician Yuan, how is the child's leg?" Qingyan asked, looking at Physician Yuan.
"The young prince's leg injury is far more serious than this." Imperial Physician Yuan was furious. Emperor Kangxi had decreed that the Fourth Prince's children no longer needed leg bindings. "Don't you know His Majesty's decree?"
"It was Consort Yi who said that if I take better care of him, I can continue to stay by the side of Prince Hafeng. Prince Yiken'e's nannies didn't follow the rules, so they were sent away by the two masters!" Madam Yu wanted to get more of this allowance.
"Heh..." Qingyan sneered.
One sentence from Consort Yi almost crippled Hafeng's leg; that shows just how much charm Consort Yi possesses.
"Since you listen to Consort Yi so much, why don't you send her to Ninth Prince's place? I heard that the princess by Ninth Prince's side is also pregnant!" Qingyan said lightly.
"This servant will never dare to do it again, Master. If you send this servant back, this servant will really lose her life!" Madam Yu knew that she had been tricked by Consort Yi. If she was sent to Ninth Prince, she would definitely be beaten to death.
Yin frowned slightly: "Did Ninth Prince say anything to you?"
At this moment, he seriously doubted whose idea it was. Was it the Ninth Prince's? Or Consort Yi's? It might even be Yin Si's idea!
"No, this servant has never had contact with Ninth Master!" The old woman quickly shook her head, certain that he hadn't.
Yin revealed a cold smile: "I'm giving you one last chance. If you don't tell the truth, you know the consequences for your son!"
Without a trace of hesitation or struggle on her face, Ms. Yu shook her head directly.
"Fourth Sister, I think what Yu Shi said is true." Qingyan felt that Yin would not meet with her in person.
Ugh!
Yin gave an awkward laugh. No parent would be happy to see their child injured; they would definitely think that these people's actions were a bit excessive.
"Master, please spare this servant!" Yu pleaded.
Nearby, Yu's child was crying and seemed very uncomfortable, a stark contrast to Hafeng's child.
"Master, is it really that painful? Hafeng was laughing just now, without crying once." Qingyan was stunned; this question was rather strange.
Pfft!
Yin laughed: "How can my son be treated like a servant?"
Qingyan rolled her eyes. When it comes to children, they're all the same. Who would spoil someone based on their social status?
"Fine, if you think this is fine, then I won't interfere!" Qingyan simply shrugged.
"You handle this here, I'll go check on Hafeng." Qingyan watched Yin leave before slowly turning her head to Yu Shi.
"When did Consort Yi make contact with you?!" Qingyan needed to get the latest information. There must be a reason why Consort Yi wanted to take action.
"Before leaving the palace, Consort Yi inadvertently made some contact with my husband's family. Then, upon learning that I was the nanny of Prince Hafeng, she casually mentioned it!" Upon hearing Yin's words, Madam Yu dared not make any further moves and spoke directly.
Before leaving the palace?!
Qingyan was glad that he hadn't let Hafenga sleep alone since leaving the palace. Yesterday, because the inner chambers weren't ready, he had let him sleep in Yiken'e's room.
"How many times have you tied up Hafeng?" Qingyan asked.
"I only tied her up once yesterday, and my master found out today!" Madam Yu quickly said.
She had to keep this job; the man valued his salary highly and kept nagging her that she absolutely could not make a mistake.
"Hmm, is there anything else?" Qingyan looked at Yu's flustered appearance and realized that her psychological defenses had been breached.
"Yes, Consort Yi said that if there are any unusual movements on the Fourth Prince's side, she must also inform her husband's family!" Madam Yu hoped to make amends for her past mistakes.
Qingyan, however, did not want to keep such a hidden danger around her, especially around the children.
"Should we notify Lao Jiu?" Qingyan wanted to find out who was behind this.
Madam Yu quickly shook her head: "No, it's for Consort Yi!"
Seeing that she couldn't get anything new out of him, Qingyan simply glanced at her forehead.
"Take her to Ninth Master's courtyard, and then tell her everything!" Qingyan waved her hand and turned to walk inside. Just as she reached the door, she stopped again. "Remember, heal her son's leg!"
Qingyan turned and walked into the inner chamber. Seeing that Qingyan no longer cared about anything and was completely dejected, Madam Yu knew that this child's life was definitely going to be difficult.
At the entrance to the inner chamber, Hafeng'a was joking around with Yinwai, his smile impossible to hide.
