Chapter 357 Is Luck and Fortune Mine Now?

The little prince replied sincerely, "Really."

The Minister of War said, "In your spare time, go and study and cultivate yourself."

The young prince: "..."

Nobody believes him, how could this be?
The Prime Minister and the Ministers of the Six Ministries did not believe it, but Qin He did, as did the Xue family. It was only then that the Crown Prince of Xue learned that Qin He had suffered a great injustice at the Duke of Yan's mansion, which is why he fell ill from anger.

When Prince Xue returned home, he went to Qin He's bedside and asked, "What happened?"

Qin He just cried and didn't say anything.

Prince Xue was anxious and got up to ask Fu Bao, but Qin He said, "Rong Yang deliberately embarrassed me."

Hearing the commotion, Fu Bao also ran over to complain, without mentioning at all that the Duchess of Yan had made things difficult for Qin He. Wiping away her tears, she said, "Rong Chi slapped me. My mother took me to the Duke of Yan's mansion to demand an explanation, but Rong Yang deliberately made things difficult for my mother and me, and even threw my mother out of the mansion."

Prince Xue's face darkened: "Didn't Prince He say anything?"

Qin He said resentfully, "Rong Yang deliberately prevented me from seeing Prince He. Fu Bao is the legitimate daughter of the Duke of Yan's mansion. If Prince He finds out that Fu Bao has been wronged, he will definitely make Rong Yang pay."

Hearing this, Fu Bao laughed triumphantly: "Mother, Uncle He already knows and has scolded Rong Yang."

Qin He was dissatisfied: "You only scolded Rong Yang?"

I needed to slap Rong Yang to feel better.

Prince Xue replied, "Being scolded by one's own father is already a severe punishment."

Qin He's eyes flashed, and she felt a weight lift from her chest. Prince Xue had originally wanted to talk to Prince He about this matter, but now there was no need. Rong Yang's scolding was now a thing of the past.

Young Master Xue, a noble young master from a prominent family, couldn't stay still. He sat for a while and then went out again.

"Fu Bao," Qin He called out to Fu Bao.

Fu Bao walked to the bedside: "Mother."

Qin He thought for a moment, a hint of resentment flashing in her eyes, and instructed Fu Bao: "In the future, in front of the Duchess of Yan and your Uncle He, you should say how bad Rong Yang is, how she is not close to the Duke of Yan's family, and how she can't be properly cared for. No one likes a child who can't be properly cared for. As long as Rong Yang is not liked by the people of the Duke of Yan's family, you will be the legitimate daughter of the Duke of Yan's family, and no one can replace you."

Fu Bao listened attentively, then asked, "If Rong Yang is rejected by the Duke of Yan's mansion, am I now the true legitimate daughter of the Duke of Yan's mansion? Will the Duke of Yan's great fortune and blessings be mine?"

"It's definitely yours." Qin He gritted her teeth: "It was yours to begin with. Rong Yang didn't grow up in the Duke of Yan's mansion. Why should he come here and take everything that belongs to you? He's usurping your place, just like his mother."

Fu Bao listened attentively, sharing the same indignation, but was taken aback when she heard the phrase "cuckoo in the nest".

“But,” Fu Bao said doubtfully, “Mother, Uncle He said I’m usurping someone else’s place.”

Qin He looked at Fu Bao suspiciously: "You must have misheard. How could your Uncle He say that you've usurped someone else's place? He would only say that Rong Yang is an ingrate who can't be tamed. Rong Yang is the one who has usurped someone else's place."

Fu Bao said, "I didn't hear wrong."

"You misheard," Qin He said definitively.

It's not uncommon for children to misunderstand a single sentence because they are playful.

Fu Bao even began to doubt herself. She trusted her mother completely; everything she had was planned by her mother. Her grandfather, Prince Xue, had more than just her father, Prince Xue; there were many younger members of her generation as well. If she hadn't been born after swallowing a lucky cloud, she wouldn't have become the blessed little princess of Prince Xue's mansion.

Fu Bao admires his mother very much because she is good at making money and has good fortune.

"You must try your best to please the Duchess of Yan and the He family," Qin He continued to instruct. "You must make Rong Yang appear ignorant and naive. In time, the people of the Duke of Yan's mansion will grow to dislike Rong Yang."

“Okay.” Fu Bao said, “From now on, I will speak ill of Rong Yang in front of the Duchess of Yan and Uncle He, and also that kid Rong Chi, that little green tea, he’s so annoying.”

Fu Bao thought about the beating she had received, covered her face, and felt a little pain.

Qin He didn't notice; she was only focused on how to make the He family hate Rong Yang. She wasn't worried about Rong Chi, that little green tea bitch, since he wasn't the He family's child.

The biggest threat to her and Fu Bao is Rong Yang. Only when Prince He completely dislikes Rong Yang can Qin He feel at ease. Without Rong Yang, the fortune and blessings of the entire Yan State Duke's Mansion will belong to Fu Bao.

He Zu always respected her and regarded her as the wife of the heir apparent.

Although she did not become the Crown Prince's wife, she could take advantage of He Zu's high regard for her. As long as everyone spoke ill of Rong Yang in front of He Zu and the Duchess of Yan, Rong Yang would eventually be driven out of the Duke of Yan's mansion.

"Mother." Fu Bao didn't leave, and asked in confusion, "Rong Yang is Uncle He's child, so he can go to the Duke of Yan's mansion. But Rong Chi is the son of the Crown Prince Rong, so why does he also go to the Duke of Yan's mansion and act as if he is a child of the Duke of Yan's mansion?"

"It's all because of her mother." Qin He got angry again, gritting her teeth: "She deliberately used the children to scheme for things. Prince He has no children, so Qin Bi deliberately sent both of her children to your Uncle He to compete with you for things."

Qin He was furious and said, "Rong Yang may not even be your Uncle He's child. Your Uncle He is a widow with no children, how could he possibly have a child? Rong Yang's mother is quite ambitious."

Fu Bao frowned: "I hate her."

Qin He also disliked Qin Bi. It was one thing for Qin Bi to stand between her and Prince He in the past, but Qin He had always harbored resentment towards Qin Bi. Now, Rong Yang and Rong Chi were deliberately trying to provoke her.

Qin He was extremely disgusted. How could Rong Yang be He Shizi's child?
Just as she was starting to feel a little better, Qin He felt chest pain again, so Fu Bao left to let her rest.

The young prince took the things but did nothing good. Fu Bao, however, eagerly ran to her maternal grandfather's house and told Qin Yan, Qin Cui, and the others that Rong Yang had been scolded by Prince He. Fu Bao deliberately let everyone know.

Qin He's younger sister beamed with joy: "Really?"

“Really,” Fu Bao said, “Uncle He doesn’t like Rong Yang.”

"Serves him right," said Qin He's younger sister. "That kid looks very shrewd."

Fu Bao corrected: "Rong Yang is a green tea, and his younger brother Rong Chi is a little green tea."

Qin He's younger sister, feeling guilty, pulled Fu Bao around and said, "Keep your voice down. If Prince Rong finds out you said Rong Yang and Rong Chi are green tea bitches, he won't care whether you're a first-rank princess or not."

Fu Bao was unconvinced, but she kept quiet.

The Crown Prince's wife and Qin Xiang's wife were having tea when they heard about this and were surprised. The Crown Prince's wife said, "I didn't expect Qin He to hold such a high place in Crown Prince He's heart. For Qin He's sake, Crown Prince He even scolded his only child."

Lady Qin Xiang said, "After all, he is just a child. He must be very sad to be scolded by his own father."

"Sigh." The Crown Prince's wife sighed, "In the past, between Qin Bi and Qin He, the Crown Prince chose Qin He. Now, I never expected that Rong Yang is still not as good as Fu Bao in the Yan State Duke's Mansion."

Lady Qin Xiang said, "If Qin He marries Prince He, she will be extremely favored."
