Chapter 171 Not Giving Rong Yang Food

Qin He walked over to Prince He, wanting to make her presence known.

Even though Prince He has a child, Qin He is still the leading lady, someone who can stand shoulder to shoulder with the powerful prince. With various thoughts in her mind, Qin He stepped to Prince He's side.

"Young Master He..." Qin He began.

Prince Xue, holding his legitimate son, called out to her, "Qin He, child."

Prince Xue wanted to enjoy the flowers with the other young masters and had no desire to bring the children along. This was the work of the women in the inner quarters, and how could a prince like him take care of the children? Prince Xue had long wanted to get away from this.

Qin He had finally gotten a chance to be with Prince He, but she was feeling annoyed. Xue Qing had actually disturbed her. Really, Qin He turned around and suppressed her temper.

"You take care of the child for a while," Qin He said to Xue Shizi, not wanting to be a burden to the child.

Prince Xue was convinced. Children are hard to take care of. He said, "I don't have time. If you're not going to take care of them, I'll leave them with the nanny."

Qin He always insisted that children should not be handed over to servants and should be raised by herself. When Fu Bao was born, he swallowed two auspicious clouds. Qin He took great care of the children. However, when her legitimate son was born, Qin He became somewhat exhausted.

For a fleeting moment, Qin He considered having the nanny take care of her, but the thought only lasted for a moment. She was different, and this difference could not be erased. Qin He could not bear to be like the women in the inner quarters of ancient times.

"Sigh!" Qin He rubbed her forehead and said to Prince He, "I have a headache. Prince Xue doesn't understand me at all. I used up my condensing power when I summoned the rain."

With no one else around, and being very well-mannered, Prince He said, "You can leave the child with the nanny and maids."

Qin He smiled faintly, her disapproval expressed in a gentle manner. Qin He walked towards Prince Xue, and as soon as she reached him, Prince Xue handed his legitimate son to Qin He and hurriedly slipped away.

Qin He, holding her eldest son, caught a glimpse of Rong Yang playing with the Qin family children for a while. When He Shizi called Rong Yang, all the children ran towards He Shizi, and Fu Bao also shouted for Uncle He to run over.

Qin He wondered what Prince He would give the children.

Every time the two powerful ministers' sons came to the Qin Yan Marquis's residence, they would bring some rare items to share with everyone. Fu Bao always received the best items. Thinking of this, Qin He looked over gently.

"Uncle He!" Fu Bao was the first to run over.

It was clearly Rong Yang who ran towards Prince He first, but then he fell behind, and even slowed down more and more, swaying as he waited for his cousins ​​behind him. Fu Bao smugly snorted.

"Rong Yang." Prince He walked past Fu Bao, who was standing in front of him wanting something, and picked up the little dumpling. "Don't run around. You'll catch a cold if you sweat."

Rong Yang looked down at the short Fu Bao and nestled contentedly in her father's arms: "I want to eat melon seeds."

Prince He took out a bag of melon seeds from his storage bag and gave it to Rong Yang. Fu Bao stood on tiptoe and shouted, "Uncle He, Fu Bao wants to eat melon seeds too. I want plum-flavored melon seeds."

Prince He lowered his head and looked down at Fu Bao with Rong Yang. Prince He said, "These boiled melon seeds are for young children. There aren't many. Rong Yang herself doesn't have enough to eat."

Fu Bao shouted, "Don't give Rong Yang any!"

Prince He's face turned cold. He Yan's child had no choice but to eat whatever he wanted. He had originally intended to give Fu Bao a few melon seeds, but since he couldn't tolerate Rong Yang, then Fu Bao shouldn't eat a single one. Prince He carried Rong Yang away.

Qin He froze, standing a dozen meters away. Fu Bao burst into tears, crying, "I want sunflower seeds! I want sunflower seeds!"

Hearing Fu Bao's cries, the maids and servants all gathered around. Even the young master Xue, who had been playing, quickly went over to comfort Fu Bao with Qin He. Fu Bao fussed for melon seeds, and Qin He wanted them all, refusing to share with anyone. The young master Rong came to the front courtyard, while the young master He left first. Rong Yang was homesick and wanted to return to the Rong Prince's residence with her parents.

Prince Rong picked up Qin Bi and took his wife and children back to his residence.

Let Fu Bao cry if she wants; Rong Yang has melon seeds, but Rong Yang is gone!

Prince He has also left. If Fu Bao wants something to eat, it's simple: just have his parents get it for him. Asking someone else is pointless. The guests frowned. Fu Bao kept making a fuss and wouldn't listen to any coaxing.

With the departure of the two powerful ministers and their heirs, the entire flower-viewing banquet lost its appeal.

Qin He lowered her eyes and thought for a moment, then called Xue Shizi and left. Back at the Xue Prince's Mansion, Qin He felt a tightness in her chest, a sense of emptiness and a pent-up anger. Fu Bao was running around, making a lot of noise in front of her.

After causing such a ruckus at Qin Yanhou's residence, he forgot all about the melon seeds he wanted to eat when he got back.

Children are forgetful, Qin He frowned, and handed the eldest son to Xue Shizi: "You hold the child."

The young master Xue looked bewildered, took the child, and handed it to the nanny beside him, saying, "Why should I, a dignified young master, hold a child? Families like ours don't need to raise their children ourselves."

Qin He wanted to take Xue Shizi with her without stopping her, but if she gave him the child, Xue Shizi would simply hand him over to the nanny.

He was raised by his nanny since he was a child, and Qin He was his ideal woman, which is why Prince Xue was so obedient to her. If he had married a wife arranged by his family, Prince Xue would not have been so good-natured.

Qin He was furious: "If even Prince Rong can take care of children, why can't you?"

Prince Xue smiled and took out a summoning artifact to fiddle with: "Prince Rong has been widowed and childless. It's not easy for him to have a child all his life. Naturally, he's different from someone like me who has a house full of children and grandchildren."

A house full of children and grandchildren? Qin He asked suspiciously, "You're not thinking of taking a concubine, are you?"

"No, no, what are you saying?" Prince Xue hurriedly waved his hand. He did not envy the young masters of other families who had three wives and four concubines: "I promised you that I would be with you for life, and I will definitely not break my promise."

Qin He was finally satisfied; in this ancient era, she was the leading lady.

"You said..." Qin He pondered, considering the Xue Prince's wishes, and discussed with the Xue Prince, "Has the Heir Apparent become cold towards our Xue Prince's Mansion now that he has a child?"

"No." Prince Xue didn't think so. He put the summoning artifact on the table and said, "You're overthinking it. I noticed that Prince He spoke to me the same way today, without any coldness."

"But Prince He hasn't cared about our Fu Bao at all," Qin He said, still upset.

Prince Xue looked at her strangely: "Prince He has his own child, and he cherishes him so much that he doesn't have time to care about other people's children. Prince He's heart and eyes are full of his own child."

If he were the one destined to be childless and widowed, Prince Xue would have personally taken care of the children without complaint.

“If it weren’t for Qin Bisheng’s child, our Fubao would be so blessed.” Qin He took a deep breath and said angrily, “With the love of the Duchess of Yan and the old lady, the title and fortune over there are of great benefit to our Fubao.”

Prince Xue hissed, seemingly lost in thought.

Rong Yang didn't go back to the Duke of Yan's mansion with Prince He, and He Yan felt a little empty. He had to coax the little guy back. Rong Jun had a son, so he probably wouldn't try to take the child from him, right?
