The concubine is a man, and the illegitimate son of a divine physician has a spatial ability.

Ah Tian, ​​who was standing nearby, quickly comforted her, "Granny Zhou, the Sixth Miss still has to pay her respects to the Madam later. If the Sixth Miss gets beaten and something happens to her, how will she be able to go out and face people later?"

Moreover, the Sixth Miss just drank a large dose of cooling medicine; her body can't handle it!

Granny Zhou snorted coldly. Seeing that A-Tian didn't move, Granny Zhou was very angry. She quickly went over, took out a whip from the cabinet, and walked up to Yin Zijing, asking, "Say it again, are you a woman or a man?"

Yin Zijing looked coldly at Granny Zhou, and for some reason, her stubbornness suddenly flared up. She said, word by word, "I am a man. I said I am a man. Let me go. I can live on my own. I will not threaten the interests of others."

Granny Zhou sneered, cracking her whip in the air, and instructed, "Xiaolan, go and tell Madam that Sixth Miss was exhausted from her journey yesterday, caught a chill from the wind and snow, and is now quite ill. She probably won't be able to pay her respects to Madam today. Then tell Madam the truth."

Xiaolan quickly replied, "Yes, Granny Zhou, I will inform Madam immediately."

Then, her sharp gaze shot straight at Yin Zijin, who was kneeling on the thick cushion. The corners of her mouth turned up slightly, with a hint of mockery and disdain. She slowly said, "Sixth Miss! You've grown up now. You're about to come of age and will soon marry His Highness the Crown Prince. Do you think you've grown up and can look down on us now?"

Hmph, if it weren't for the fact that you were born into the Yin family and that you were favored by the Madam and raised as a legitimate daughter, how could you, as an illegitimate child, possibly dream of marrying His Highness the Crown Prince? That's just wishful thinking!

Our Yin family has worked so hard to raise you, providing you with a life of luxury and honor, and bestowing upon you such a high status and prestige.

Now that such an excellent marriage has been carefully chosen for you, shouldn't you be grateful and do something for the Yin family? Or are you really planning to turn your back on them?

If that's the case, how do you calculate the debt of gratitude the Yin family has shown you over the years? Don't forget, without the Yin family, you wouldn't be where you are today!

All that could be heard was Zhou Mama's angry shout: "Today I'll teach you what rules are!" Before she finished speaking, the whip in her hand lashed out like a venomous snake, striking Yin Zijing's frail body.

With each lash, Yin Zijing would groan, but she would grit her teeth and endure the excruciating pain without uttering a single beg for mercy.

As she hit him, Granny Zhou scolded, "I'll ask you one more time, what is your identity? As a woman, you should act like a woman, and you'll never change that in your entire life!"

Tell this old servant, will you dare utter those nonsensical words again? And what about those rules and etiquette that you should have memorized? Where have you learned them all?

Yin Zijing's body trembled, like a candle flickering in the wind, but her eyes still revealed stubbornness and unyieldingness.

Yin Zijin has always had a frail appearance. Her delicate body seems to have a curvaceous figure with a unique charm, but her slender waist looks as if it could be broken with a slight bend. It is so thin that it is about the size of an adult man's hand.

With such a frail body, how could he withstand a few beatings? After only a few lashes, he could no longer hold on and collapsed to the ground like a candle in the wind. Even his small, exquisite lotus feet were barely visible from under his skirt, sometimes tightening and sometimes loosening due to the pain.

His hands were tightly bound, rendering him unable to move, and thin gold chains were wrapped around his ankles, further restricting his movement. Faced with the rain of whips, he had no way to dodge; he could only grit his teeth and endure the excruciating pain.

Those pitiful, tearful eyes not only failed to evoke the slightest pity in the abuser, but instead further stimulated the sadistic desires hidden in Granny Zhou's heart.

The old woman, Zhou, her face contorted with rage, raised her whip again and lashed it fiercely at Yin Zijing. Each lash was accompanied by her sharp and cutting words: "Young lady, do you think you're a man? Have you contracted some strange illness that makes you unable to distinguish whether you're a man or a woman?"

After saying that, Granny Zhou slowly squatted down, like a hungry wolf staring at its prey, and tightly gripped Yin Zijin's small, three-inch lotus feet.

She played with them wantonly, occasionally kneading them with her fingers, as if these little feet were some rare treasure. Then, she unceremoniously reached out and patted Yin Zijing's chest and buttocks, muttering, "Look at this soft body, where is there even a trace of a man's appearance?"

After doing all this, Granny Zhou suddenly lifted Yin Zijing's chin, turning her terrified little face straight towards her.

She stared intently at Yin Zijin in front of her, her voice cold and oppressive as she demanded, "Sixth Miss, why don't you tell me in detail where you can see even a hint of a man's appearance?"

You are clearly a beautiful and charming young woman! Look at your frail body and your delicate and graceful posture, how can you not look like a little girl who needs to be cared for and loved?

A delicate and helpless young lady like you is best suited to stay quietly in the deep courtyard, where servants will take good care of you and help you recuperate.

When you reach marriageable age, find a good marriage, get married in style, and then uphold the virtues of a wife, serve your husband wholeheartedly, and have children for your husband's family. This is the best ending for you in this life.

"My kindness to you, and the Madam's kindness to you, are all for this reason alone. You must understand, in this inner quarters, making a concubine's daughter disappear without a trace is as easy as turning one's hand. So, Sixth Miss, you'd better be sensible and not let our good intentions go to waste!"

After saying that, Granny Zhou whipped Yin Zijin a few more times. Ruhe, who was standing to the side, couldn't bear to watch any longer and threw herself on top of Yin Zijin, taking the whipping herself. She quickly turned her head and said, "Granny Zhou, please stop hitting her. If you keep hitting her, will the young lady even survive?"

"You all go out first. I'll talk to the young lady properly, and she'll agree with what Granny Zhou said."

Granny Zhou stopped whipping Yin Zijing. Seeing that Yin Zijing wouldn't give in no matter what, and that she had whipped Yin Zijing dozens more times, she realized that this couldn't go on. So she quickly said, "Alright, we'll go first. You two can talk things out properly. Make sure you give Madam a satisfactory answer."
