Chapter 147: The Great Yan Emperor

In the Great Yan court, memorials were presented to the Emperor, focusing mainly on the affairs of the six ministries.

The Prime Minister's memorials were more miscellaneous, containing both major court events and minor matters that were difficult to decide and required the Emperor's review. The Prime Minister had received the Great Yan Emperor's instructions to pick out a few memorials to bring out.

The Great Yan Emperor was proud. Look, he was still working very hard; he had even ordered the Prime Minister to pick them out.

After court, Rong Yang ran out as a gesture. This time, no one scooped the child back. Eunuch Fu and the little eunuch had long been waiting outside the hall, holding the memorials. The child ran, and the eunuchs holding the memorials chased after him.

Rong Yang simply didn't go home and waited for He Yan to finish court.

He Yan had a dark face, scooped up the child, and left with long strides. Eunuch Fu followed behind to the Yan Guogong Fu.

"What is the situation?" the Minister of War asked the Prime Minister outside the court hall.

The Prime Minister shook his head and speculated: "Perhaps the Heir Apparent has no children, so he has a softer heart for the Little Heir Apparent Rong Yang."

Was that how it was?

The Minister of War gave the little Imperial Prince a tip: go hang around the Yan Guogong Fu when there was nothing to do. The current little Imperial Prince, Yan Xun, was also a child everyone loved. If he went to the Yan Guogong Fu more often, maybe he could get the same treatment as Rong Yang and Fubao.

The little Imperial Prince thought it was feasible, but unfortunately, before he could take action, he was stopped by the Great Yan Emperor.

"You are not allowed to disturb Rong Yang while he reviews memorials," the Great Yan Emperor said, leading the little Imperial Prince away: "The Imperial Kitchen just made peach blossom cakes, soft, sticky, and sweet. They won't taste good if they get cold."

"But the Yan Guogong Fu also has delicious food," the little Imperial Prince said while swinging his little legs to keep up: "Fubao and Rong Yang both went to the Yan Guogong Fu. The Yan Guogong Fu must have made delicious food."

The little Imperial Prince had already eaten all the pastries and delicacies in the palace and was a bit greedy for food from outside the palace.

The little Imperial Prince was also a little foodie.

Besides, children all liked excitement.

"If you are really bored, Father will give you a few memorials," the Great Yan Emperor said.

The little Imperial Prince shrank his neck and didn't make a sound. Spare him, please. Father didn't like reviewing memorials either, so how could he be any different? He didn't like reading memorials either; it was better to dump them on younger brother Rong Yang.

He He Shizi Apparent was very capable at reviewing memorials, and younger brother Rong Yang followed the Heir Apparent's example, knowing how to review memorials at such a young age.

In the Yan Guogong Fu, He Yan reviewed memorials while Rong Yang stayed on the side eating and drinking. The pastry molds in the kitchen were changed to ordinary styles. Rong Yang glanced at them and started eating them one by one.

Fubao was acting cute in the Yan Guogong Lady's courtyard. A maid brought up pastries and stared at the plate, feeling puzzled.

"My Lady, the pastry mold is broken. Today's pastries look very ordinary." The maid placed several plates of fresh pastries on the table and said to Fubao: "Little Junzhu, there are no cute-shaped small pastries today."

Fubao leaned forward and took a look: "I don't like eating these ugly pastries."

The Yan Guogong Lady smiled: "They just don't look good, but the taste is the same."

"I don't like eating them," Fubao twisted her body, acting willful.

Children were all like this. The Yan Guogong Lady didn't mind and coaxed Fubao a few times.

Fubao was unhappy and ran to find He Yan. Just as she ran into the courtyard, Fubao saw that annoying Little Heir Apparent Rong Yang. Fubao questioned loudly: "Rong Yang, why are you here?"

Rong Yang didn't make a sound, and He Yan looked over, holding his brush.

"What are you doing at the Yan Guogong Fu?" Fubao shouted loudly: "I don't allow you to come."

Rong Yang didn't cry or make a scene, nor did he argue with Fubao. The little milk bun reached out to the guards, and the Rong Prince Manor guard reached out to scoop up their Little Heir Apparent and left. He Yan put down his brush and stood up.

The guard carried the child away quickly. He Yan looked at Fubao again, his face sinking: "What qualification do you have to drive Rong Yang away?"

Fubao burst into tears. He Yan didn't even want to look at her. The guard carried Fubao out of the courtyard. The Xue Prince Manor maid arrived a step later, not knowing what had happened, and hurriedly took Fubao to find the Yan Guogong Lady.

The Yan Guogong Lady thought the child was just making a fuss, gave the little girl some rare fruits and pastries, and sent the Xue Prince Manor people away.

Fubao went home and complained to Qin He: "Mother, that Rong Yang is competing with me again?"

"Rong Yang went to the Yan Guogong Fu again?" Qin He was displeased.

"Yes, whatever I have, Rong Yang grabs it. He is so annoying." Fubao smiled triumphantly: "I drove him away. Everyone in the Yan Guogong Fu likes me. What right does he have to compete with me?"

Qin He sent Fubao away. When the Xue Heir Apparent returned from outside, Qin He told him about it.

"Just like his mother," Qin He said with disdain: "She likes to compete with me for everything. Rong Yang competes with our Fubao. I can make soap and build glass. What can Qin Bi and her child do? Like dodder flowers, they can do nothing."

The Xue Heir Apparent nodded: "That concubine-born cousin of yours really can't compare to you."

The Little Heir Apparent Rong was hard to say. As the Heir Apparent's child, his background was no worse than Fubao's. One thing was one thing; Qin Bi was born to a concubine of the Qin Yan Hou Fu, but Rong Yang's status was extremely noble.

Qin He felt suffocated. What kind of people were they, liking to compete for everything.

Rong Yang returned home and babbled to Rong Juan.

"You just came back like that?" Rong Juan asked.

"Yes," Rong Yang was quite happy: "I won't go to the Yan Guogong Fu anymore."

Rong Juan saw that the child wasn't sad and didn't say anything. The next day, he didn't let the child go to court. The Great Yan Emperor waited for a long time, but the little milk bun didn't come. He Yan presented the reviewed memorials, his face looking bad.

Qin Bi watched the child playing happily at home and asked what had happened.

Generally, Qin Bi didn't ask about things related to the Yan Guogong Fu. After all, her status wasn't suitable for getting too involved. As for someone like Qin He, Qin Bi really didn't know what to say.

After court, Rong Juan entered the palace and asked for leave for Rong Yang.

The Great Yan Emperor was dumbfounded; he couldn't catch the little one anymore.

Without Rong Yang to find He Yan, He Yan also threw in the towel. Stacks of memorials piled up in front of the Great Yan Emperor. This was great; the Great Yan Emperor was so worried that nothing he ate tasted good.

On the day Qin Bi gave birth, the Heir Apparent had arranged everything in minute detail.

When Rong Yang was born, he could invite the Great Yan Emperor, but for this one, Rong Juan was even more serious. He invited the Great Yan Emperor, whose blessing value was maxed out, to sit in command early in the morning, and even invited the Qin Yan Hou couple and the Qin Yan Hou Fu Heir Apparent Qin Yan, plus the families of the third and fourth branches.

Rong Juan's face was tense with nervousness, scaring the Great Yan Emperor so much that he didn't dare to drink tea.

The Qin Yan Hou couple and Qin Yan were invited for the first time. The Qin Yan Hou family was surprised and astonished, not expecting the Heir Apparent to attach such importance to this pregnancy. The Qin Tan family knew the situation; the little one Qin Bi was carrying was the Heir Apparent's true child.

The Qin Di couple and the brothers Qin Tang and Qin Xun were also a bit nervous. Following the wailing cry of the little milk bun, Qin Bi gave birth to a second son.

Rong Juan's eye sockets turned red. After wrapping up the soft little bun, Rong Juan felt as if he were holding a rare treasure. His hands trembled slightly as he carefully protected it and placed it into the Great Yan Emperor's hands. ===== CHAPTER 148 =====
