Chapter 379: Didn't get much spiritual food either.
Qin Bi looked up, and the clouds rushed in, mottled and uneven.

A moment later, a light to moderate rain began to fall; the raindrops were small, but they fell in dense rain.

Light and moderate rain was falling.

Rong Yang tilted her little head back, her eyes shining brightly.

The young prince said, "If this rain-summoning artifact were given to my father, he could definitely summon a much bigger rain. It's a pity that my father has to stay in the palace."

"Where is the young prince?" Qin Bi knew that the emperor could not easily leave the capital unless his luck was exceptionally good. Of course, he could visit the immortal sect for a while, but it wouldn't be long, as the royal family would also have to rely on the immortal sect's magic.

The young prince turned his head, and Qin Bi continued, "What's the level of your rain summoning ability?"

I'm just curious, not that I absolutely have to know.

Just like a little dumpling, she talks a lot and asks questions.

Actually, the child takes after her, but Rong Yang doesn't. The child is shrewd and a bit cunning.

Unlike little dumplings, they don't chatter on and on.

The young prince sighed, "Alas, I can only rely on the luck of the royal family."

His cultivation level is still insufficient.

He was small and didn't have much spiritual food to eat.

Fu Bao would always sneak into the palace to freeload when it was a rare treat to eat the sacred food.

It's so hard to advance my cultivation level!

Things got better during this time. Prince He had a biological child, so Fu Bao was sidelined. Prince He no longer brought Fu Bao into the palace. Rong Yang and Rong Chi were eating well, so they didn't go to the palace either.

So the little prince didn't get to eat much spiritual food. He was craving the delicious food at the Rongwang Mansion. There were so many spiritual ducks, and Rongyang and Rongchi ate spicy spiritual ducks every day. It was so tempting.

The young prince, being reserved, wouldn't say he was craving the spirit bird duck.

The little head tilts up, not greedy.

The rain that Lin Yao summoned only lasted for the time it takes to drink a cup of tea before gradually stopping. Lin Yao then stopped, saying, "The clouds over the fiefdom lack rainfall. It would be better if I could summon rain on a cloudy or rainy day."

Rong Yang ran over and dug at the soil on the ground, and the little prince also dug at it: "This rain has soaked a layer of soil."

Qin Bi frowned slightly, not expecting that growing something would be so difficult.

The group continued walking, and Qin Bi asked, "Do we need to cultivate the land?"

Stepping out of the fertile fields, Lin Yao looked at the barren land where not even grass grew and said, "Guard Yan and I will summon plants to clear the land. The Crown Princess and the young prince will try to summon rain. I can't summon rain for the time being."

Lin Yao used a lot of spiritual power to summon just now.

Qin Bi nodded, opened her storage bag, and took out summoning artifacts. She gave one to Rong Yang, one to the little prince, and one to herself. These were all artifacts she had created to summon rain. One of them had a dot pattern, which she used to represent rain.

Anyway, as long as it can summon rain, that's fine.

Qin Bi and the little prince held unpatterned teacups, neither of which were large. Qin Bi's condensation ability was not strong, so she could only condense small teacups, or slightly larger ones, which were delicate and round in her hands.

Qin Bi's lifespan had been damaged, so she dared not expend too much of her condensation power.

Qin Bi was still a novice when it came to condensing abilities, and there was a lot she didn't understand.

The little prince found it fascinating, fiddled with the small teacup, and seemed to really like it.

Lin Yao and Guard Yan both carried summoning artifacts, all decorated with plant patterns. They used the artifacts to summon two plants and then ran to the ground to turn over the soil.

Qin Bi, Rong Yang, and the young prince waited, and while they were at it, they each ate a spicy duck head. The young prince, watching Qin Bi eat, looked up in confusion and asked, "Does the Crown Princess eat too?"

It's not that the young prince is reluctant to part with it; he doesn't care if it's not his.

The main reason is curiosity. This is a spicy duck head from a spirit bird, which is very expensive. Shouldn't the spirit food be reserved for the child, since a mother's status depends on her son? Only when Rong Yang and Rong Chi are together can the Crown Princess Rong secure her position as Crown Princess.

Qin Biming understood and said with a smile, "The young master asked me to eat it."

"Oh." The young prince didn't ask any more questions.

Of course I'll eat if the Crown Prince tells me to; who doesn't love eating spirit food?

The worst thing is for women in the inner quarters to be like empresses, dependent on men, mainly showing a gentle and submissive demeanor in front of them, not competing or vying for favor.

Oh, the young prince remembers now, there is only one Princess Consort Rong, so there is no need to bother competing for favor.

The young prince glanced at Qin Bi and Rong Yang, and then at the little dumpling Rong Yang. The Crown Prince doted on her. Look how well he raised his Crown Princess. She's so beautiful, even more beautiful than the empresses in the palace.

Lin Yao and Guard Yan directed the plants to cultivate a small plot of land. They took a few steps and continued to direct the plants to cultivate the land. The soil in the fiefdom was not too bad, and it was easier to cultivate than the wild land. However, the newly cultivated land was not easy to sustain.

The crops planted this year may be good, but tomorrow they might not grow much at all.

The fields are short of water; no matter how much rain falls, it's not enough. Fields that have been there for many years are fine; they've been nurtured. As long as it's not a severe drought, things will still grow in the fields. It's very different from newly planted fields.

After finishing his spicy duck head, the young prince washed his hands and began to summon rain using his summoning artifact.

Rong Yang had also washed her little hands. Qin Bi ate slowly, and by the time she finished a spicy duck head, the children had already summoned a cloud of water, which came from nearby with water vapor.

Qin Bi observed that the water and clouds were a pale blue color, indicating a high level of moisture, which meant the area affected by rain would be small.

A moment later, the water cloud summoned by the child sprinkled rain. Qin Bi had also washed her hands, and holding the summoning artifact, she also activated the summoning. The cloud that she summoned was similar to the one the child had summoned.

Lin Yao glanced back and said to Guard Yan, "This is the amount of rain that someone who has just begun cultivating immortality can summon."

Guard Yan glanced at it, then looked away and said, "I was hoping to eat Chinese cabbage this winter too, but it looks like we won't be able to grow many. We've summoned too little rain."

At most, one can cultivate three-tenths of an acre in a morning; any more than that would be a sloppy job.

At noon, everyone went to the restaurant in the fiefdom for a simple meal. Lin Yao brewed tea and set it out. Whether Qin Bi, Rong Yang, and the little prince did any work was secondary; the main thing was that they couldn't go thirsty or hungry.

Forget about vying for favor; Qin Bi and the young prince don't need to compete for favor because they are already the apple of Rong Shizi's eye.

This makes it seem as if the little prince is unloved.

The young prince didn't care at all, busying himself with other things. Qin Bi was surprised and said with a smile, "The young prince is so good to Rong Yang."

The young prince said, "Brother Rongyang has twenty points of fortune and luck in the Great Yan Dynasty. I have to dote on him since he was born. And your little dumpling Rongchi has twenty points of fortune and luck as well."

Qin Bi: "..."

Qin Bi said, "You seem to have a lot on your mind."

"I am of royal lineage," the young prince said. "It is only right that I was born to protect the Great Yan."

Qin Bi's eyes immediately welled up with tears. Rong Yang glanced at Qin Bi, stretched out her little hands for Qin Bi to hug, and only then did Qin Bi calm down. When she was distracted, she was prone to acting on her emotions.

It was hard for Qin Bi not to be moved when such a young child as the little prince said these words.

Looking out the window of the restaurant's private room, Qin He and her younger sister were shopping, along with Qin Han and several other women. Everyone was surrounding Qin He, and the young prince also peeked out.

Qin He was in a good mood after receiving several spiritual fruits.
