Chapter 603 Xue Wang got a good deal.
Chapter 603 Xue Wang got a good deal.
Did Prince Rong protect her like this before? No.
Lady Qin Yanhou was slightly surprised. This was probably not just because of the children. If the Crown Prince Rong would not have done this small thing for Rong Yang and Rong Chi, he was protecting them too much.
“Young Master Rong,” Xue Wang said, “Qin Su was too ruthless, kicking her with his foot without any regard for kinship. I have to talk to Marquis Qin Yan about this. Fu Bao got beaten for nothing.”
King Xue still wanted to bypass Prince Rong and talk to Marquis Yan of Qin.
Prince Rong narrowed his eyes. The little dumpling Rong Chi munched on a sweet yellow pear. Prince Rong said, "Qin Su's grandfather and father are not in the manor. Prince Rong, let's talk."
As the son-in-law of the second branch of Qin Yanhou, Xue Shizi still had some reservations and said, "Let Qin Su apologize to Fu Bao."
Prince Rong scoffed lightly, glancing indifferently at the Xue family: "That won't do. Qin Su is protecting his cousin, that's right, that's right, why apologize? Your little princess has been raised on rare and precious treasures since she was a child, and she can't even beat Qin Su, who has just started cultivating immortality. What a disappointment."
Prince Xue blushed furiously. Wasn't this an insult to Fu Bao, calling her a good-for-nothing?
King Xue couldn't contain his anger either. What Prince Rong said made sense. Fu Bao had indeed been raised with rare and precious herbs since he was a child. How could he not even beat Qin Tang's eldest son? What a waste of all those rare and precious herbs.
If so many good things were given to his other grandchildren, they would surely improve.
“Fu Bao was beaten, Qin Su should at least apologize to Fu Bao, right?” Princess Xue argued.
Even a powerful minister like Prince Rong can't be unreasonable!
Besides, Xue Qing and Rong Shizi are good friends and have a decent relationship. Qin Su is Rong Shizi's wife's niece, and Fu Bao is the granddaughter of Qin Yanhou's family. They are not far apart. How can Xue Qing protect Qin Su like this and make Fu Bao feel wronged?
Even if we don't treat all relatives equally, we should at least be close to the truth.
The Crown Prince scoffed and refused. After Rong Yang finished eating a yellow pear, the young prince went to the Rong Prince's tea shed and brought back a few more yellow pears. He gave one to Rong Yang first, while Rong Chi hadn't finished eating it yet.
The little dumpling stretched out its tiny hand: "Give me one."
The little prince gave him one, and the little dumpling gave the little prince the yellow pear he hadn't finished eating. He didn't want any more; the little dumpling wanted the bigger one. Lady Qin Yanhou was jealous; she really spoiled him.
The Crown Prince's wife, however, felt that the child shouldn't be spoiled like this, no wonder he cried so much.
"You must eat all the spiritual fruits," the Crown Prince's wife said gently.
Lady Qin Yan was furious. "You're a poor, destitute family, yet you've become so frugal! Don't you even know who Rong Chi is? The treasures of the Rong King's mansion are the apple of everyone's eye; they're treated like precious gems."
Who do you think you are to interfere?
"The fruit near the pit doesn't taste good," Lady Qin Yanhou quickly said. "The rest don't need to be eaten."
A mocking smile appeared on the Crown Prince's lips. The Crown Prince's wife realized she had misspoke and stepped aside. The little prince, not minding the little dumpling's munching on the spiritual fruit, took a bite of the yellow pear.
King Xue and Marquis Qin Yan saw this and their eyes flashed.
Just then, a commotion broke out outside the teahouse. Fu Bao ran over to find Princess Xue. She had heard that her grandparents and father had come to vent her anger. Fu Bao couldn't stand it and ran over angrily.
"Where's Qin Su?" Fu Bao shouted, "I want to fight back and make him apologize!"
King Xue shared the same idea, and without hesitation, the Crown Prince Rong said to Marquis Qin Yan, "Summon Qin Su."
Qin Yanhou glanced at Fu Bao with displeasure. This Fu Bao was too willful and a bit arrogant. The fourth branch of Qin Yanhou's mansion was indeed inferior to Xue Wang's mansion, but if Fu Bao fought back, Qin Yanhou's mansion would lose face.
Marquis Qin Yan sent someone to summon Qin Su, and the child greeted his elders first.
Rong Yang, holding a yellow pear, gave Qin Su a "brother".
One of the maintenance measures is quite obvious.
The little dumpling Rong Chi saw this and called out, "Brother."
Qin Su: "Sigh."
Prince Rong raised his chin slightly and said to the Xue family, "If you don't want to fight back, then fight. I'll watch. Let's see who dares to fight?" Everyone was stunned. Listen to that! How domineering those words are! Who would dare to fight just because of those words? Fu Bao was eager to try. Her cultivation was higher than Qin Su's, and she was sure she could make Qin Su cry.
Prince Rong then said to Qin Su, "Remember, if anyone hits you, hit them back. Your uncle will back you up."
Qin Su nodded vigorously. He remembered it and kept his eyes on Fu Bao. If she dared to make a move, he would teach Fu Bao a lesson.
Fu Bao was a little scared. Her mother wasn't there. If her mother were there, she could win. Prince Xue was so angry that his face turned black. Prince Xue also felt that he was in a dilemma. He thought it best not to provoke Prince Rong if he could avoid it.
Qin Yanhou and his wife: "......"
It has to be the Crown Prince Rong, he's incredibly arrogant.
“Prince Rong,” Prince Xue said, trying to salvage the situation, as admitting defeat would be too undignified: “You’ve put us in a difficult position.”
Let Fu Bao fight back, but he doesn't dare to.
It would be too frustrating not to fight.
Just then, the little dumpling Rong Chi, holding a yellow pear, tilted his head and asked while munching on it, "Prince Xue?"
King Xue: "..."
Duke Yan smiled and said, "Fu Bao's grandfather."
The little dumpling, Rong Chi, started wailing: "My beloved Prince Xue..."
Duke Yan's smile froze on his face. This kind of treatment was exclusively for He Yan. Good heavens, it's a different person singing today. First it was Fu Bao, and now it's Prince Xue.
The others were stunned; they were stunned too early.
The little dumpling Rong Chi wailed, "...How did you die?"
Prince Xue's vision went black for a moment, and he shook his head. Princess Xue was furious, even more furious than when Fu Bao had been beaten. Their whole family depended on Prince Xue; what if he cried himself sick?!
"Shut up!" Princess Xue said anxiously. "Stop crying."
Prince Rong looked down at the little dumpling, his lips twitching. Let him cry, it's not like he's crying for someone else. Prince Rong just felt a little cheated, his son was crying for someone else, and Prince Xue was getting a good deal.
He doesn't even deserve it!
"You you you..." Fu Bao stammered, pointing at the little dumpling.
Duke Yan came to his senses and laughed: "The more you cry, the stronger it gets, it's alright."
King Xue nearly died of anger. The Duke of Yan spoke so casually, as if to say, "So you're the one crying, not the one crying. What are you saying?" King Xue felt unwell, his head throbbing.
Alright, stop demanding an explanation from Marquis Qin Yan. You won't get away with this.
King Xue didn't dare poke the little dumpling Rong Chi with a single finger. If he dared to poke him, King Rong would come over and beat him up in a heartbeat. King Xue was worried about scaring the little dumpling, but King Rong wouldn't listen.
King Xue stood up, his face dark, and told his family to leave.
Apologize? No way! Being yelled at by this little dumpling has really put me in a bad mood. This is a cultivation world where fortune and luck are paramount. You can imagine how you feel when someone yells at you for no reason.
After everyone left, Prince Rong lowered his head and said to the little dumpling, "Stop crying."
The little dumpling has stopped crying; we don't even let him cry anymore. He's hugging a yellow pear and munching on it—it's so sweet! (End of Chapter)
