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

Chapter 307 A Hard-Won Marriage to a Higher Status
Princess Xue stood up. Should she go herself? She hesitated.

“Send someone,” Prince Xue said. “Send an advisor so that we can find out the truth and know when to advance and when to retreat. If it wasn’t a spirit bird sent back by the Crown Princess, we won’t lose face.”

Princess Xue nodded, and Prince Xue then sent a plump, eloquent advisor to the Qin Yan Marquis's residence.

After everyone left, Princess Xue had something to say: "In the Marquis's mansion, Qin He is considered lucky. Everyone else can send back spirit birds, so how could Qin He have come up empty-handed? Besides, among the group, only Qin He and our Xue Qing brought the most magical treasures."

Large teleportation arrays are expensive; can others afford them? Certainly not.

Princess Xue's protection of Qin He was also for Xue Qing's sake. Prince Xue had other sons besides Xue Qing. Princess Qin He was a concubine's daughter in the Marquis's mansion, and her only advantage was her high fortune.

"The Rong King's Mansion can also produce a large teleportation array," Prince Xue reminded the Queen.

"Prince Rong married Qin Bi because he was cursed with having no wives and no children." Princess Xue said dismissively, with great disdain: "Large teleportation arrays are becoming increasingly rare. Would Prince Rong really be willing to give away so many large teleportation arrays?"

The King of Xue remained silent; it was up to the Crown Prince of Rong to decide.

If the fate of being unable to marry or have children is broken, and Prince Rong does not like Qin Bi, he can choose a noble lady from a high-ranking family as his wife. A concubine's daughter is always inferior in status.

Therefore, the choice of which magic weapon to give to the fourth concubine's daughter of the Qin Yan Marquis's mansion needs to be carefully considered.

Neither Prince Xue nor Princess Xue believed that Qin Bi could be wholeheartedly protected by Prince Rong.

The advisors from Prince Xue's residence went to Marquis Qin Yan's residence. When Marquis Qin Yan heard that it was his advisors who came this time, not his servants, he went to the front yard. Marquis Qin Yan's wife thought for a moment and then called Qin Qi and his wife to go with him.

Qin Qi was puzzled and asked Cui Shi, "What are the people from Prince Xue's mansion doing here?"

After a moment's thought, Cui thought, "They probably thought Qin He had sent something back."

Qin Qi frowned: "Since Qin He first went to the small space of the demon beast realm for training, she has never teleported anything back. She always waits until the training is over and then comes back directly. When has she ever teleported anything back? How could the Xue Royal Mansion think that Qin He can teleport things back?"

Cui was speechless, and Qin Qi also fell silent, following behind Lady Qin Yanhou.

In the front courtyard of the Marquis's residence, Marquis Qin Yan met directly with the advisors from Prince Xue's residence. He didn't have time to go to the living room for tea and a detailed discussion, so he wanted to get straight to the point, as the entire Marquis's residence was busy.

They have no sense of propriety; after much deliberation, they chose to come during their busiest time.

When the advisors of Prince Xue's mansion saw Marquis Qin Yan, they bowed and said, "My lord, I have been ordered to inquire about the luck of our Crown Prince and Princess Consort in the small space of the Demon Beast Realm. Have they collected anything?"

Qin Yanhou sensed the probing intent in those words, but he didn't find it offensive. He replied, "There's been no movement from your Crown Princess and Crown Prince's group."

The advisor was taken aback. What did it mean that their Crown Prince and Princess's team hadn't made any moves? Surely, with all the shipments being sent back, there must have been something for their Crown Prince and Princess.

"This..." The advisor carefully chose his words: "Weren't the spirit birds that were teleported back today teleported back by our Crown Prince and Princess?"

After going around in circles for a while, I finally asked the question.

Qin Yanhou and the others looked at their advisor, who quickly explained, "Our Crown Princess has always been blessed. If there are many spirit birds in the small space of the demon beast realm, the Crown Princess should be able to catch them."

Qin Yanhou said expressionlessly, "Wait until Qin He and your young master return, then ask them. We didn't go to the small space in the Demon Beast Realm, so we don't know what's going on there." Qin Yanhou was busy and left this matter to his second wife, Qin Qi, and her husband.

Lady Qin Yanhou didn't feel the need to say more to the Xue Wangfu staff. After Lady Qin Yanhou and Lady Qin Yanhou left, Qin Qi said to the staff, "The spirit bird sent back by the fourth branch should have nothing to do with Qin He."

“But…” the aide said, “Our Crown Princess is quite blessed; she shouldn’t have gained nothing.”

Qin Qi and Cui Shi exchanged a glance. They knew best whether Qin He was fortunate or not. She was fortunate, having received many good things from the Duke of Yan's mansion. But it wasn't entirely true that she was exceptionally fortunate.

But this cannot be said. It's not easy for the second branch of the family to produce a concubine's daughter who marries into a higher social class. Even if we're just boasting, we have to make Qin He sound like she's very lucky. Otherwise, given the noble family of Prince Xue, Qin He's position as the heir apparent's wife wouldn't be secure.

“The small spaces in the demon beast realm are often dangerous; it’s a blessing if you don’t get hurt,” Cui said. “Collecting things requires not only good fortune but also luck; you can’t ask for too much.”

Cui's words left Qin He a way out. It would be better if Qin He could collect something, but even if she didn't collect much, the Xue Prince's Mansion couldn't blame her. Anyone who goes to the small space in the demon beast realm will definitely have a lot of gains.

After the staff left, Cui sighed.

With a loud "bang," Cui Shi and Qin Qi were startled.

The guards hurriedly closed the gates, children scrambled up the walls, and the frightened spirit birds squawked in panic. Qin Yanhou and Qin Tan directed the capture of the spirit birds and ducks, and then another group of spirit birds was teleported back, which was truly astonishing and unbelievable.

This time the teleportation array was small, and fewer spirit birds were teleported back, but a lot have already been teleported back!

Add that together, and that's something extraordinary.

In the small space of the demon beast realm, nearing evening, Qin Yan, Qin Tang, and the others breathed a sigh of relief. They were exhausted. The Marquis's Mansion's fortune that Qin Yan carried could bring good luck, but it wasn't like you could just stand still and expect the spirit birds and ducks to run at your beck and call.

Oh, you wanted to drive them to the teleportation array, so they all rushed over there.

It's not that strange. Everyone still needs to cooperate to drive them away. The spirit ducks are alive, and some will still run away. However, Qin Tang and the others still felt that they were lucky enough. They could sense whether their luck was good or bad.

"Big cousin," Qin He contacted Qin Yan using a summoning artifact, suppressing her anger, "you can't abandon us."

Everyone sat on the sand, listening to Qin He use her summoning artifact to transmit messages. No one paid any attention to her. Qin He hadn't had a moment's rest all day, constantly urging and urging, which was quite annoying.

Qin Xun took out a bamboo section, poured a cup of water and handed it to Qin Bi, then poured water for the others.

Having just taken a sip of water to quench her thirst, Qin He continued to contact Qin Yan, her tone anxious and impatient: "Big cousin, Qin Yan is injured. What are you doing? Why aren't you saying anything?"

Qin He's tone was quite harsh. Faced with the ferocity of the high-level demonic beast, Qin He was furious that the third and fourth branches of the family were fighting over the young master Qin. Everyone among cultivators knew the value of high-level demonic beasts, and they were being incredibly ignorant.

Qin Lang took a sip of water and said, "Big cousin, you mustn't go."

Qin Yan dared not leave; the gains here were too great: "I'm not going."

As for Qin Yan's injury? Even if she dies, Qin Yan cannot leave. The number of spirit birds and ducks captured this time is too large. Qin Yan gets excited just thinking about the approximate number. It would be foolish for him to leave.
