Chapter 356 The Little Prince is Also a Money-Grubber
After thinking it over, Qin Bi could easily guess that He Yan loved his own child more.

It's clear from what's happened recently that Qin He has been spoiled by He Yan. She thought He Yan would protect her as before, and she even dared to compete with He Yan's only child.

It's no wonder Qin He thinks this way; she feels that nothing has changed, all because He Yan spoiled her.

But Qin He didn't know that Rong Yang was using her pride in favoritism and her sense of entitlement against her.

This was Rong Yang's scheme, and He Yan tacitly approved it.

What kind of scheming is it? It's something you can see but can't touch.

The child was ruthless. Qin Bi took a sip of tea, giving Qin He the illusion that everything was still the same as before, and that Fu Bao could still consider herself the legitimate daughter of the Duke of Yan's mansion.

But they didn't give us anything tangible.

He Yan would even accompany Rong Yang to embarrass Qin He.

He Yan's favoritism gave Qin He confidence. It seemed that everything was still there, but in fact, He Yan had taken it all back silently, without Qin He noticing, and she was still scheming to win him back.

If Qin He doesn't know when to stop, I'm afraid she won't be given any face at all.

Today, Qin He didn't know when to stop. She was still hoping to see He Yan and protect her. Qin Bi sighed and realized she was overthinking it. If Qin He didn't back down gracefully now, Rong Yang and He Yan would probably humiliate her in the future.

They were singing in unison, humiliating Qin He.

In the future, I'm afraid Rong Yang will tirelessly use this trick to trample on Qin He's dignity and suppress her luck little by little. As for good fortune? That's Fu Bao's good fortune; Qin He's appearance doesn't indicate much good fortune.

Qin Bi laughed in exasperation at the thought, for she had always thought Rong Chi was a scheming woman.

Unexpectedly, Rong Yang was also a green tea bitch, deliberately acting as if his father was not on his side and was protecting his white moonlight Qin He, as if he were a pitiful little nobody who no one wanted.

Then, they threw Qin He out of the mansion without any hesitation.

Despite its clumsy attempt, Qin He had no doubt about He Yan's love for her. The more wronged Rong Yang looked, the more Qin He believed that He Yan favored her.

And then there's Fu Bao. Whenever He Yan shows favoritism towards Fu Bao, Qin He feels that everything in the Yan State Duke's Mansion belongs to her, including her child, and she dares to think of anything. But Rong Yang won't let her touch anything.

Such a scheme to manipulate people must have been devised by a powerful minister.

Qin Bi sipped her tea. Was it Rong Shizi's idea?
He Yan tacitly approved and cooperated with Rong Yang. From beginning to end, Qin He was someone Rong Yang schemed against. Rong Yang was the adopted child of the Rong heir, how could he allow anyone to covet what belonged to him?

Qin Bi didn't think it was excessive or cruel. Qin He wasn't greedy, and Rong Yang couldn't outsmart her.

As long as Qin He covets the fortune and blessings of the Yan State Duke's Mansion, it's no wonder Rong Yang takes action.

Rong Yang cracked melon seeds, her little teeth not strong enough, so she used her little hands to peel them.

"Rong Yang," Qin Bi asked, "Does your father from the Duke of Yan's mansion love you?"

Rong Yang looked at Qin Bi's expression. Qin Bi said, "If it's good for you, I'll try my best to let go of the past and not hold it against you. You are the most important. I only hope that you and Rong Chi are happy and loved by someone."

Rong Yang said, "He loves me dearly. I am his only child in this life."

The child paused for a moment, then said, "Don't believe that my father from the Duke of Yan's mansion would favor Qin He and Fu Bao and not love me. That's not true. It's just for show for the Prince of Xue's mansion. My father and I want to see just how ambitious Qin He is."

Qin Bi glanced at the child, who didn't understand. Qin He was certain that He Yan had feelings for her, but He Yan had deceived Qin He to pave the way for his child. This was the most ruthless way to kill someone by destroying their spirit.

Taking a deep breath, Qin He realized that this was Qin He's own fault. Qin He should never have coveted Rong Yang's things, and He Yan would not allow it. Therefore, He Yan could wipe the slate clean of all their past relationship.

"It's good that you love me." Qin Bi's smile reached her eyes. Rong Yang took the storage bag and said, "I've put away everything in Fu Bao's courtyard. Mother, would you like to take a look? You can keep anything you like, or give it to your younger brother Rong Chi."

Qin Bi shook her head: "I don't want to."

Rong Yang didn't insist; he still needed to raise troops.

Today's incident didn't become widely known, probably because Prince Qin had done something about it. Qin He fell ill after returning home, feeling ashamed, angry, and resentful. Since her transmigration, Qin He had never suffered such a great injustice in the Yan State Duke's mansion.

Fu Bao kept her mouth shut and indeed didn't mention it to her father, Prince Xue.

Prince Xue felt sorry for Qin He and bought her a set of jewelry. However, Qin He was not happy. She felt a tightness in her chest and was depressed. She would often lose her temper with the servants.

However, the person Qin He really wanted to beat and scold was Rong Yang. Taking her anger out on the servants was not enough to quell her resentment. Frustrated and resentful, Qin He fell ill and could not get out of bed. Qin Han went to persuade her, but shook her head and sighed.

Qin He's incompetent self-inflicted torment had no effect on Rong Yang whatsoever.

The next day, the child invited the children of the He family, as well as the young prince, to play at the Duke of Yan's mansion. He also gave away the pearl flowers and other items from Fu Bao's courtyard. He also gave away hair ornaments and other items to several of the He family's young ladies.

The young lady from the He family said, "Fu Bao's things are all good things."

Rong Yang said, "Sister, take whatever you like."

"Will Fu Bao cause a fuss?" the little girl worried.

"It's alright." Rong Yang had already given them away.

The young prince pulled Rong Yang aside and asked, "When you threw Princess Xue out of the mansion, did your father scold you?"

"No." Rong Yang thought for a moment, "When you go out, just say that Father scolded me."

The young prince refused to cooperate: "I won't say it. I didn't scold you. You green tea, Rong Yang, you're just like your brother, full of scheming. The children raised by powerful ministers are just different."

Rong Yang pointed to the ornaments in the room and said, "They're still worth some money. Little Prince, you can take them all, but you should exchange them for some ornaments from street stalls. Fu Bao is only good for street stall items."

Those who come to your door every day to beg for money are just poor relatives.

Yes, Fu Bao is Rong Yang's poor relative.

The young prince saw that the ornaments were indeed worth some money. He took away the most valuable Rong Yang ornament, since He Yan had no children before, and the Duchess of Yan usually prepared good things for Fu Bao.

The young prince was also a miser, and he put everything into his storage bag.

Instructing a eunuch to buy ornaments from small shops and silk flowers from stalls, and to display them exactly as they were, to fool Fu Bao, is considered disrespectful to a young princess of a royal family.

However, no one invited Fu Bao.

As long as Fu Bao comes, it means accepting this contempt. He's embarrassing himself and others are humiliating him. Who can he blame but himself?

The young prince accepted the gifts and actually did his job. When he saw the Prime Minister and the Minister, he kept saying, "Rong Yang is so pitiful. He threw Qin He out of the Duke of Yan's mansion, and Prince He scolded him."

The Prime Minister and the Minister ignored him, but the young prince continued to chatter on.

His maternal grandfather, the Minister of War, was annoyed: "The people in the court are all old foxes, who are you trying to fool?"
