The wife travels through time and space to honor her husband: The heirless prince raises a child

Chapter 273 isn't as mysterious as it seems.

The young prince cried bitterly and wanted to leave the palace that very night.

He's no longer a prince, what a piece of trash! He finally managed to buy the spirit melon, and he even had to humble himself and coax his younger brother Rongyang to buy it. And what happened? As soon as Fu Bao entered the palace, he took one of the spirit melons away.

The young prince's mother said, "Your father has his reasons for doing this. As a prince, you must prioritize the well-being of the Great Yan Dynasty."

After saying that, she helped the little prince wash his face. The little prince ate the spirit melon and felt no heat.

"Don't bring back any more spirit melons," the little prince's mother said. "Go play with your little brother Rong Yang. Eat something delicious before you come back. Qin He is the chosen one, and her child is a blessing. The prince wasn't picked up either."

“I understand.” The young prince nodded: “Our Great Yan is not comparable to Great Chu and Rongdi. We must be cautious in dealing with the chosen one.”

The young prince's mother sighed. To be an emperor, one must have the skills of an emperor. The Great Yan Emperor may seem simple-minded, but he is a wise emperor. For the sake of Great Yan, the emperor does not mind rewarding those protected by Heaven.

"Brother Rongyang doesn't like Fubao," the little prince muttered.

The young prince's mother suggested that he tell Rong Yang about Fu Bao taking away a magical melon.

Upon learning this, Rong Yang's face turned cold, and the Crown Prince Rong understood why Qin Bi and Rong Yang hadn't mentioned sending the little prince the spirit melon. The mother and daughter had calculated that Fu Bao would get a share of the things sent to the palace.

Prince Rong, holding his youngest son, glanced at Qin Bi and Rong Yang: "The Great Yan Emperor bought the spirit melon with high-level demon beast crystals. Rong Yang, the price he sold it to your royal uncle was higher than others, and the little prince didn't say anything."

So, what's there to mind?

Rong Yang: "......"

The spirit melons sold by the immortal sect cost two demon beast crystals each, but Rong Yang sold two spirit melons for five high-level demon beast crystals to the little prince. The child did it on purpose; his royal uncle always favored Fu Bao.

"Qin He always says she's the leading lady," Qin Bi said. "Could it be that she really is the leading lady?"

Rong Jun paused in his arms, holding the sleeping baby. In his previous life, Qin He was indeed a leading lady. Although she ultimately lost, she had her moment of glory. Unfortunately, she was killed by the young prince.

Qin Bi glanced at Rong Jun and said, "From now on, I'll be the villain."

Where there's a strong female lead, there must be a villain.

Rong Jun: "......"

Rong Yang immediately chimed in, "I'll play the minor villain."

"Villains are just cannon fodder." Qin Bi waved her hand: "It's none of your business."

Rong Yang was very obedient. Qin Bi forbade him from being a villain, and the child nodded in agreement.

Prince Rong got up and escorted his youngest son, Rong Chi, back to his bedroom to sleep. After he left, Qin Bizhen became the villain. A villain should act like a villain, so the female lead has to sabotage everything she does.

"Do you want the spirit melon back?" Qin Bi asked the little dumpling.

Rong Yang nodded: "Mhm."

Qin Bi assessed her own abilities, pondered for a moment, stood in the courtyard, and reached out towards the Xue Prince's Mansion to mobilize her semi-immortal power. At this moment, the maid had just washed the spirit melon, and Qin He and Fu Bao were waiting to eat the melon.

When Ling Gua suddenly disappeared, Qin He and Fu Bao stared in disbelief, and Fu Bao touched the table up and down.

Qin Bi's semi-immortal power was very weak. When she took the spirit melon back, she couldn't control it properly and it fell to the ground with a "bang," shattering into pieces. Rong Yang's eyes widened in disbelief.

"Where did you come from?" Rong Yang asked, completely bewildered.

Qin Bi replied, "Fu Bao won't be able to eat the spirit melon."

The child understood and a look of surprise appeared on his face; this was the spirit melon that Fu Bao had taken. Then, the child frowned: "It's broken."

"So what if it's broken?" Qin Bi didn't care. The outcome was good. After all, he was a villain. As long as he could annoy the female lead, that was fine. Qin Bi said, "It's better than being eaten by Fu Bao."

The spirit melon was sold, but it was smashed, so Qin He and Fu Bao can't eat it.

On a sweltering day, you wash a watermelon, ready to eat it, only to find it's gone. Just thinking about it makes you feel good. Qin Bi was in a good mood, and Rong Yang happily grabbed a piece of watermelon from the table and ate it. The child was in a good mood too.

Rong Jun stood under the eaves. In her previous life, Qin Bi did not cultivate immortality, nor in the life before that.

In this life, I cultivated immortality, and my magical abilities are extraordinary.

The melon fell to the ground and no one paid any attention to it. A guard silently stepped forward, glanced at Rong Jun, and said, "Princess Consort, do you still want this melon? Why don't you give it to me instead?"

Qin Bi was in a good mood and nodded: "Go and eat a good spirit melon."

The guard was delighted and took a spirit melon from the basket. His gaze fell on the spirit melon that had been smashed on the ground. The guards still wanted this melon, which had fallen from the sky and was very clean, so it wouldn't hinder quenching their thirst.

The guard recognized the melons from his own garden; they weren't some random, unknown melon.

Besides, the Crown Princess just reached out and grabbed a melon from the sky; it's obvious she used some kind of magic. The guards weren't curious, because they had their Crown Prince. If the Crown Princess and the young Crown Prince didn't want it, they would want to share the melon.

Qin Bi was too lazy to pay attention, and Rong Jun didn't care either. The guards brought out a good melon and a broken melon to eat.

The maids and old women were extremely envious when they saw it. They didn't even mind that the melon was broken. The guards went too far, getting a good melon and taking away the broken one as well.

The maids and servants were too far away to see how Linggua fell; they assumed she had accidentally dropped it and broken it.

Rong Jun chuckled. If this is what it means to be a villain, he won't stop you, as long as you don't get hurt. Qin Bi and Rong Yang were both happy. The young master Rong raised an eyebrow, his eyes filled with a hint of doting affection.

At this moment, in the Xue Prince's mansion, Qin He was furious: "Who used magic to steal the spirit melon?"

Fu Bao cried out, "My magic melon!"

The servants fell silent in fear, and even the young master Xue had no choice but to offer Qin He a few words of advice.

Qin He was so angry that she cried: "Fu Bao and her brother didn't get to eat a single spirit melon this summer. They finally got one, and it's gone just like that. Cultivators are so hateful. They just love to rob rare and precious materials and spiritual food."

Having no other choice, Prince Xue continued to coax, "We've encountered a powerful cultivator from a celestial sect."

This method is something that ordinary cultivators cannot do. After all, the guards of the Xue Prince's Mansion are not to be underestimated. When they encounter powerful cultivators, even the Xue Prince's Mansion's forces are helpless.

Qin He cried in grievance, and Fu Bao also cried, leaving Prince Xue in a complete predicament.

Princess Xue sent someone to the Prince's courtyard to inquire about the situation. She was somewhat bewildered upon learning what had happened. Prince Xue simply refused to believe it. How could a spirit melon just disappear like that? He had never seen anything like it in his entire life.

Cultivating immortality in this world isn't as mysterious as it seems.

Last time Qin He was struck by lightning, and this time she lost the spirit melon. Prince Xue couldn't help but think more about it. He said to Princess Xue, "Tell the Crown Princess not to be arrogant in the future, and not to be complacent just because she is the chosen one."

Princess Xue nodded: "This matter..."

“Keep it covered,” said Prince Xue. “If word gets out, people will think that people from the Xue Prince’s Mansion are talking nonsense.”

In any large cultivation family, who hasn't eaten spiritual food and melons? If someone says the melon was gone when you were eating it, they'll laugh themselves to death.
