No matter how unwilling Meng Jifang was, he could only obey the Crown Prince's order.
Xie Qiao passively watched the show. It was pretty interesting to her. She thought Meng Jifang deserved to be treated like that.
Although the Crown Prince was crippled, he still held his position all these years. He would be anyone's master with his noble identity. No matter what Meng Jifang did, he would not get the upper hand.
Moreover, he was just a boy. He did not look like a man like the Crown Prince did.
Meng Jifang making noise before the Crown Prince would be like… a milk-drinking baby asking for money from an adult. It felt rather childish.
Meng Jifang could not clean the horses now.
Fortunately, he was almost done with the punishment since a long time had passed. Moreover, the others were still there, and they were willing to work with Xie Qiao. Thus, she completed the chore not long later.
The overseer checked on them once much earlier.
