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

Chapter 347 Prince He Likes Her
"What's the young master of the Rongwang Mansion up to again?" Fu Bao asked, displeased.

"What can they go to do?" Qin He scoffed. "They'll go compete with you again. One Rong Yang isn't enough, so they even sent the little one along. The little one is the Rong heir's child, so he can't compete with them."

At this point, Qin He said to Cui Shi and the others, "I never realized before that my cousin from the fourth branch of the family was so ambitious. I respected her for her backbone when she got divorced, and I thought she didn't care about the power and status of the Duke of Yan's mansion. I never expected that she would send her child to beg for money today. If anyone is going to fight for something, it should be the older one. What kind of nonsense is it for the younger one to fight for something?"

Madam Cui shook her head: "Qin Bi shouldn't be that cunning. The two powerful ministers' sons are widowed and childless. No matter how scheming Qin Bi is, she wouldn't have thought that she would be pregnant. Right now, she's probably just jealous of the wealth and power of the Duke of Yan's mansion."

The Duke of Yan's mansion has a rich history and the powerful heir of a minister, Prince He. Countless people covet its fortune and blessings.

Qin Bi might not have had this thought before, but it's hard to say after having a child. It's impossible for Qin Bi not to plan for Rong Yang. However, sending the young servant to the Duke of Yan's mansion won't yield anything.

Rong Yang is a child of the Duke of Yan's family, but Rong Chi is not.

Rong Chi is no match for Fu Bao. There's no other reason than that Fu Bao was raised as the legitimate daughter of the Duke of Yan's mansion from a young age, a fact known to everyone in the Great Yan. What is Rong Chi? Just a little dumpling.

Qin He was unconvinced, but after thinking about it for a moment, she had to admit that Qin Bi was indeed not that shrewd. The heir of a powerful minister in the Great Yan Dynasty was widowed and childless, so who would have thought that he would have offspring?

Qin He thought again, Qin Bi is now coveting the things of the Duke of Yan's mansion, which is shameless.

Qin Bi didn't have any ideas before, but she does now!

Qin Han sighed. She was from the fourth branch of the family and was Qin Bi's half-sister: "Alas, how could Sister Qin Bi let the young prince go to the Duke of Yan's mansion? Her intentions are obvious. She is just jealous of the Duke of Yan's mansion's fortune and blessings."

“Yes,” Qin He’s younger sister scoffed, “Who wouldn’t be envious of the Yan State Duke’s mansion’s wealth and influence?”

Qin Yan turned to Qin He, growing more and more anxious as she listened, urging, "Sister Qin He, hurry up and send Fu Bao to the Duke of Yan's mansion. We can talk after Fu Bao leaves. If Fu Bao is a step too late, her good things might be snatched away."

Qin He, however, had other ideas. Everyone chimed in, and Qin He was tempted. Indeed, the Duke of Yan's family held a hereditary first-class title, and who wouldn't be envious?

"Qin Bi can send the younger one to the Duke of Yan's mansion," Qin He said. "I can also send my Xue Rui to the Duke of Yan's mansion. Let's send the children and see who can win the competition."

Qin He's younger sister, eager to try, immediately approved: "That's a great idea."

“What’s so good about it?” Cui Shi stopped her. She was the head of the household, not Qin He, a concubine’s daughter who had no manners. She said, “It’s too ugly to go against her like this.”

Qin He retorted, "Even Qin Bi doesn't find it ugly."

“That’s right,” said Qin He’s younger sister.

“No.” Madam Cui frowned. Qin Han and Qin Yan were both there, so Qin He shouldn’t have voiced her thoughts. It was too late to stop her now. Madam Cui looked at Qin He: “If you also send Xue Rui to the Duke of Yan’s mansion, your ambition will be too obvious.”

What Prince He admired was Qin He's aloofness, not her ambition for fame and fortune.

Qin He was planning for the future, and also considering that the second branch of the family could continue to benefit from it. Qin He had to put on a convincing act. Cui Shi glanced at Qin He, who was relying on the guilt that He Shizi felt.

The white moonlight, coupled with the guilt of delaying Qin He's marriage, is enough to control the entire Yan State Duke's Mansion.

With these things already in place, why bother pretending to be so eager to seize the Duke of Yan's possessions?

As Qin He's legal mother, Cui Shi always had to make arrangements for her to prevent Qin He from acting rashly.

Qin He thought about it carefully and realized that Cui's words made sense.

“Yes,” Fu Bao agreed, “Take my brother with you.”

"I'm not taking my younger brother with me anymore." Qin He gave up on the idea.

Qin Han also sided with Qin He and urged Fu Bao, "Go quickly." Qin He immediately sent Fu Bao to the Duke of Yan's mansion, while she stayed at the Marquis of Qin Yan's mansion to wait for news. She also took the opportunity to talk badly about Qin Bi to Qin Han and her sisters, getting angry at the thought that Qin Bi always competed with her for everything.

It's one thing for Qin Bi to argue with her, but to involve the child in the argument is just outrageous.

Qin He snorted coldly. Prince He liked her. He only married Qin Bi to pave the way for her. Qin Bi's scheming was useless. If you are not liked, you are not liked. No matter how much effort you put in, it will be useless.

Qin Lang received the news as soon as Fu Bao went to the Duke of Yan's mansion.

Back in the courtyard of the fourth house, Qin Lang whispered to Qin Bi.

Qin Bi narrowed her eyes, feeling somewhat annoyed. Dealing with the Yan State Duke's Mansion was always troublesome, especially with these kinds of things. She and Qin He had become entangled too much, which wasn't a good thing; it was an entanglement of fate.

However, Rong Yang is He Yan's child, so there's nothing that can be done about it.

Jiang hesitated to ask, but her stepmother, He, inquired, "What's wrong?"

Before Qin Bi could speak, Qin Lang said, "Fu Bao has also gone to the Duke of Yan's residence."

Madam He frowned, displeased: "Won't the children start fighting?"

Qin Bi also became worried and sent a guard to tell Rong Shizi. Rong Jun didn't care at all and relayed the message to the young prince, telling him to go to the Duke of Yan's mansion. He said that Rong Shizi had already given instructions, and if it didn't work, he should be beaten.

The young prince muttered to himself, then decided to go to the Imperial Study first.

"Father," the little prince asked, "Can I hit Fu Bao?"

The Emperor of Great Yan glared at him: "How could you hit the little princess?"

Before the young prince could say anything, the Emperor of Great Yan said again, "The Crown Prince Rong trusts you, so he's letting you go. Go quickly, don't let your younger brother suffer. In war, brothers are brothers. Rong Yang and Rong Chi are no different from your own brothers."

The young prince pondered the meaning of these words, while the prime minister lowered his eyes.

The Minister of War pulled the young prince aside and whispered, "He still needs to be beaten."

The words were spoken in a low voice, but everyone who was supposed to hear them heard them, yet the Emperor of Great Yan pretended not to.

The young prince understood and left the palace.

In the Duke of Yan's mansion, the little dumpling was very happy, eating rare spirit melons and boiled melon seeds, which were also spirit melon seeds. When He Yan had to go to court, the little dumpling cried loudly.

"Stay home and look after the baby." The little dumpling was being noisy.

He Yan finally understood how difficult it was to raise a child. He cried all day long. He turned around and picked up the child again. Rong Yang peeled a melon seed and gave it to her younger brother. The little dumpling ate it with great relish.

He Yan took a look, peeled a melon seed and gave one to Rong Yang, and another to the little dumpling.

Rong Yang sat obediently and said, "My father is going to the small space in the demon beast realm to find resources for my brother and me. Can you take good care of my brother and me? The Rong King's Mansion is not as wealthy as the Yan State Duke's Mansion."

In the past two years, Rong Jun has been taking care of his child, so he has not been able to attend court or even go to the small space in the demon beast realm.

He Yan pondered for a moment and said, "Young Master Rong, I'll go watch the child."

Babysitting for Prince Rong? He Yan glanced down at the little dumpling shaking its head in his arms and thought it was going to be tough; the child was too noisy.
