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

Chapter 292 Adding to Qin He's Trouble

Everyone went to Qin Tan's study, putting away their official documents and setting them aside.

Qin Lang packed up his father's official documents and said, "I'll go."

Qin Xun said, "I'll go too."

Qin Bi hadn't expected this at first, but then a thought suddenly struck her. Last time, Qin Tang, Qin Xun, and Qin Lang had all gone, so Rong Yan and Jiang Xu were still missing. It would be better to gather all the previous teams together.

"Ask Rong Yan and Jiang Xu," Qin Bi said. "Or should the rest of us go together?"

Qin Xun nodded: "I'll go ask."

Qin Tan and Qin Di exchanged a glance, and Qin Di said, "In that case, your third uncle and I will not go."

After everyone discussed it, Qin Yanhou went to find Old Qin Yanhou to prepare magic tools and the like for the group. Going to the small space of the demon beast realm was no joke for people with low cultivation levels.

Qin Bi went back, and Rong Jun went to the palace to see the Emperor of Da Yan. The little dumpling pouted, looking aggrieved.

Rong Jun felt sorry for the child and immediately took him in. The child leaned on his shoulder and shed tears. Rong Jun gently patted the little guy and said, "I'll buy you a spirit plant chicken to eat when we get home later."

The little one understood and stopped crying.

The Emperor of Great Yan hissed, "Could it be a child of my royal family? Loves to eat."

Rong Jun ignored the Emperor of Da Yan, who had already left the court. In the imperial study, there was a plate of pastries and a plate of fruit on the desk. Eunuch Fu took them over and placed them next to Rong Jun.

Rong Jun fed the little guy some fruit, and the child happily ate it.

"The Crown Princess is going to build up Rong Chi's wealth," Rong Jun told the Emperor of Da Yan.

Upon hearing this, the Emperor of Great Yan was surprised. He had thought that Rong Jun would lead the team to the small space of the demon beast realm. However, it was good for the Crown Princess to go, as her cultivation level was still too low at present.

The Emperor of Great Yan was not stingy and gave a teleportation array: "This teleportation array is fast, and if you encounter someone with high cultivation, you can teleport multiple times. It is very suitable for low-level cultivators."

Rong Jun picked up the teleportation array, opened it, and looked at the scroll. The little dumpling reached out and asked, "What's this?" Rong Jun glanced at it and put it away, while the little dumpling continued eating his fruit.

After leaving the palace and returning to the Prince's residence, Rong Jun did not rush to give the teleportation array to Qin Bi. There was no rush now; he still needed to prepare for a few days before going to the small space in the demon beast realm. Giving it to Qin Bi before departure was not too late.

Next, the Qin Yan Marquis's Mansion made preparations, and other aristocratic families also made preparations. Family members often went to the small space in the demon beast realm, but Qin Bi did not go and did not pay attention to the situation of other families.

Now that I've taken it to heart, I've discovered that other scions of prominent families also go to gain experience.

Once the Chinese cabbage and green radish were planted in the wild land, the Vice Minister of Revenue and the Vice Minister of Works would take a walk around the dozen or so acres of land whenever they had free time. Every five or six days, they would squat down and dig up the soil to take a look.

Two more days passed, and the two vice ministers became anxious.

"Why haven't the seedlings sprouted yet?" asked the Vice Minister of Works.

The Vice Minister of Revenue frowned: "If the seeds don't sprout in another day, it's probably a waste of time and they won't germinate."

The Vice Minister of Works felt a pang of sadness. Buying seeds and hiring cultivators—both of these required money. If the vegetable seeds didn't sprout, the whole effort would be wasted. He sighed deeply, his hopes for the spiritual vegetables extinguished.

Even ordinary vegetable seedlings will do, let alone spiritual vegetables.

By the afternoon, only a few seedlings, about one or two meters apart, had sprouted, thin and malnourished. The next day, they were still like that, with no more seedlings appearing, and no new seedlings at all.

Qin He and the others were still waiting for good news. If they successfully grew the spirit vegetable seedlings, the Ministry of Revenue would surely reward them with demon beast crystals.

"Why haven't we heard anything yet?" Princess Xue asked Qin He, growing impatient.

Qin He didn't know what was going on either: "Perhaps the spirit vegetable seedlings are slow to sprout." Qin He didn't know the specifics, nor did Princess Xue. Neither of them were skilled in planting. So, Prince Xue simply went to the Ministry of Revenue to inquire. The people there told him that seedlings wouldn't sprout in fields in the wilderness.

"How could that be?" Qin He didn't believe it. "Take me to see for yourself."

Prince Xue shook his head: "If the seedlings don't sprout, the people from the Ministry of Revenue and the Ministry of Works will definitely be in a bad mood. You'd better not go. Don't worry, it's your achievement, so the Ministry of Revenue and the Ministry of Works won't fail to reward you."

Qin He sighed in frustration and waited at home.

As a result, the Ministry of Revenue remained silent. If the seed sprouted and the effort was put in, then money would be paid out; if the seed didn't sprout, then nothing would be paid out. Neither the Ministry of Revenue nor the Ministry of Works would pay any attention to you.

The land was perfectly fine, cultivated by the Qin Yan Marquis's Mansion and the Rong King's Mansion, but when they planted it, it wouldn't sprout. When the Minister of Revenue heard about this, he went to the desolate land.

The Minister of Revenue grabbed a handful of soil and crushed it: "It's too dry."

"Didn't you summon rain? We invited several cultivators with water and wood spiritual roots, as well as a few fortunate cultivators, and this is the result?" The Minister of Revenue scoffed.

Qin He is lucky? You're kidding me.

The rain summoned with low fortune value has a similar germination rate, so whether it's considered lucky or not is debatable. The families who participated in the summoning were quite disappointed when they heard this, as they had originally hoped to receive some reward money.

"How could this happen?" Qin He frowned.

Upon learning that someone from the Qin Yan Marquis's residence was going to the small space in the demon beast realm, Qin He went to the Qin Yan Marquis's residence.

Qin Bi had been visiting Qin Yanhou's residence for the past two days to discuss going to the small space in the demon beast realm with her brother. She happened to run into Qin He and asked, knowing the answer already, "How's the farming in the wilderness going?"

As the villains are, they naturally relentlessly nitpick at the female lead.

Qin He felt that Qin Bi was the one who was interfering. She moved her mouth, knowing that others would criticize her for saying this, and said, "The soil that has been planted once is depleted of nutrients, and it's like sprouting."

Qin Bi glanced at Qin He with disdain and laughed, "Some people were worried that others would steal the credit, how ridiculous."

Qin He was so angry that she was panting heavily. Qin Bi was mocking her, but she couldn't accept it, otherwise it would be admitting how ridiculous she was. She clearly couldn't grow anything, yet she was worried about others stealing the credit.

In short, he overestimated his abilities.

"You're only able to grow things in this wilderness because you're lucky," Qin He retorted.

Qin Bi glanced at her disdainfully, then strolled away leisurely, saying, "My good luck isn't something I brag about. I don't go around telling everyone I'm lucky or blessed."

These words were directed at Qin He; both cousins' words carried a sharp edge.

The Marquis's mansion has rules against sisters fighting. This level of conflict is acceptable. Besides, elders usually don't interfere with veiled meanings. Since Qin Bi is causing trouble for Qin He, she certainly won't hold back.

"You..." Qin He was so angry that her mind went blank.

Since she transmigrated, no one has ever humiliated her like this.

"What?" Qin Bi turned around calmly, her eyes filled with disdain. She knew Qin He couldn't lash out.

There's no reason for this, is there? Even a young lady from the Marquis's mansion should have a reason for throwing a tantrum.

Otherwise, it's just being immature.

Unbelievable! Qin He stormed off angrily to find Qin Yan and ask him about going to the small space in the Demon Beast Realm. She had lost face by farming in the wilderness, and Qin He wanted to go to the small space in the Demon Beast Realm to save face.
