The heir to Marquis Prince Anyuan felt somewhat unwell, said a word to Qin Lang, and returned home.

Rong Yang ate his fill and went home happily.

"So happy?" Qin Bi smiled as she looked at Little Little Tuanzi.

"I ate many spiritual fruits and spiritual foods," Rong Yang bounced.

Then, he rummaged through his storage bag and took out several spiritual fruits.

Qin Bi handed them to Qin Lang to eat. Qin Lang said, "I have already eaten. Rong Yang did not take away my share. I originally planned to stroll a bit longer, but the heir to Marquis Prince Anyuan felt unwell, so we dispersed."

Qin Bi was puzzled. Qin Lang said, "My head hurts, and I have no energy. It is likely I caught a chill from the sudden rain."

Qin Lang did not stay long; he activated the teleportation array and went to the Marquis Fu farmland again.

It had rained for a full two days, and the rain was still falling.

The heir to Rong's fiefdom was the same; this time, the ground was thoroughly soaked.

The heir to He Shi missed his child. Since he could not visit directly, the Lady of Yan Guogong packed some things and went to Prince Rong's Fu. When Qin Bi saw the Lady of Yan Guogong, she recalled the past and showed no expression.

The Lady of Yan Guogong knew her place and tried to lower her stance as much as possible.

Back then, she only thought of He Yan's fate of having a wife who would die and no children; Qin Bi was the most suitable. The Lady of Yan Guogong was full of sincerity. Later, when the matter of Qin He arose, the Lady of Yan Guogong did not stop it.

Now, she regretted it so much her intestines turned green.

The decision regarding the equal wife was not the Lady of Yan Guogong's, but if she had intervened, Qin Bi would not have divorced. Comparing things now, Qin Bi was still more suitable for He Yan.

She could not think about it; thinking about it made the Lady of Yan Guogong feel terrible.

"Where is Rong Yang?" the Lady of Yan Guogong asked. "I want to take him to Yan Guogong Fu to play for a few days."

"He went out," Qin Bi said. She was not the type to use a child to manipulate others. "Come back in a couple of days; Rong Yang is busy."

The Lady of Yan Guogong asked, "Busy with what?"

Qin Bi said, "Irrigating the farmland."

"Oh!" The Lady of Yan Guogong had heard rumors earlier. She knew that Prince Rong's Fu and the Qin Yan Marquis Fu, among others, had summoned rain. She nodded and said, "Very well. I will send someone to pick up Rong Yang in a couple of days."

Qin Bi had nothing to say to the Lady of Yan Guogong, stood up to see her off, and the Lady of Yan Guogong felt a mix of emotions in her heart.

If only they had not divorced back then.

Although Qin Bi was a concubine-born daughter, the Lady of Yan Guogong had never looked down on her. However, regarding Qin He, the Lady of Yan Guogong had disliked her from the start for reasons she could not explain; when looking at Qin He, she thought, "A concubine-born is just a concubine-born."

The Lady of Yan Guogong got into the carriage, looking at Qin Bi, and her heart ached.

This was the wife of the heir to Yan Guogong Fu that she had begged for several times. Her fate was unobstructed, and He Yan liked her. Yet, they had come to this point, essentially handing her over to the heir to Rong.

If she felt this unwilling, let alone He Yan.

The Lady of Yan Guogong sighed lightly. The carriage left. The rulers of noble families never spoke of regret, but regarding Qin Bi, even if He Yan regretted it, he had to accept it. Fortunately, there was still a child.

Qin He still wanted Fu Bao and Rong Yang to compete. The Lady of Yan Guogong sneered. Only He Yan himself knew how much he doted on Rong Yang. Look, he missed his child after just a few days of not seeing him. As a powerful minister, He Yan never showed his emotions outwardly.

Back at the Fu, the Lady of Yan Guogong said to Yan Guogong, "The thing I regret most in my life is not stopping it."

Yan Guogong said, "What is the point of saying these things?"

The divorce had already happened, and Rong Yang had returned. The matter was settled; more words were useless. Even regret had to be swallowed. The heir to Rong had married Qin Bi, and Yan Guogong Fu could not utter a single wrong word, because Rong Juan had raised Rong Yang very well.

On the third day of this rain, the noble families of Jingcheng could not sit still.

Not to mention the great clans, even the Great Yan Emperor, the Prime Minister, and the six Ministers of the Ministry could not sit still. Why? The farmlands of Prince Rong's Fu and the Marquis Fu kept raining, raining without end.

Yet, not a drop of rain fell elsewhere in Great Yan. The Great Yan Emperor was dumbfounded. He had already sent spiritual foods and fruits to the chosen woman of heaven. Usually, a little light rain would fall, but now that he had sent them, not a single drop fell.

In this situation, even cultivators found summoning difficult.

The sky does not rain, and summoning is still hard. It is not fair to be so biased.

If the sky did not rain at all, the Great Yan Emperor would have no complaints. The problem is that the farmlands of Prince Rong's Fu and Qin Yan Marquis Fu are raining. It has rained for three days straight, while the land elsewhere is so dry it is smoking.

"Where is Qin He?" the Great Yan Emperor asked.

"She is unconscious and not waking up," the Minister of War said.

The Great Yan Emperor: "..."

There was no way to handle it!

"The First-Rank Little Princess has awakened," the Prime Minister reminded the Great Yan Emperor.

The First-Rank Little Princess Fu Bao had swallowed two children born with auspicious clouds. Her luck value was high, and she was titled a First-Rank Princess, enjoying all the benefits. It was time to use the Little Princess; the Little Princess must go!

One cannot get rewards for nothing.

"He Yan!" the Great Yan Emperor said. "You take the Little Princess Fu Bao and summon rain."

He Yan did not want Fu Bao to borrow his luck. Before, he did not care because he had no children. Now, the luck of Yan Guogong Fu was to be used for Rong Yang. He Yan said, "Your Majesty, it would be best for the Prime Minister to take the lead in the summoning."

The luck and fortune that Yan Guogong Fu had dissipated over the years, He Yan wanted to gather back slowly, bit by bit.

The Great Yan Emperor was an emperor with good fortune and listened to advice. He turned to the Prime Minister: "Prime Minister, you go. Take a mid-level summoning magic treasure with you and be sure to summon a rainstorm."

The Prime Minister accepted the order and left. The Minister of War glanced at the heir to He Shi and roughly guessed why the heir to He Shi was making excuses.

Previously, when the wife of the heir to Xue and Fu Bao summoned rain, the heir to He Shi would always lend a hand. He Yan was a powerful minister, and combined with the luck value of the heir to Xue, it enhanced the summoning ability to a certain extent.

Now that the heir to He Shi had a child, he was not willing to bother.

"Minister of Works," the Great Yan Emperor said. "You go too."

"I obey your decree."

The Minister of Works went to assist the Prime Minister. The Great Yan Emperor and other officials waited quietly for good news. At this time, Lin Yao, the first strategist of the heir to Rong's fiefdom, was busy distributing the rainwater evenly, while farmers went to carry water.

This rain would not fall elsewhere; it had already caused flooding. Elsewhere, the drought was so severe the soil had dried up.

The rain summoned by the heir's wife recognized the land; the people of their own fiefdom could not be ignored. Lin Yao had asked the heir to Rong and received permission for the people of the fiefdom to divert water for irrigation. This was truly a case where the flooded areas drowned and the dry areas withered.

After Qin Bi summoned the rain, she completely stopped caring, letting things be whatever they were.

On the side of Qin Yan Marquis Fu, there were still other farmlands in the Marquis Fu, so they transported water to irrigate them.

The heir to Marquis Prince Anyuan was listless, while everyone else was lively and noisy. Several cultivation families sent people to investigate. Watching the rain pour down here while their own summoning efforts were so difficult, they were simply baffled to death.

It rained for another day, and finally this rain has stopped.

"If it stops, it stops," Qin Tan checked the irrigation of the fields: "If it keeps raining, there will truly be flooding."

Crops are like this; drought is no good, and flooding is no good either.

Qin Tan took the summoning magic treasure given by Qin Bi, activated the teleportation array, and left Jingcheng to return home.

Everyone saw the rain situation at Qin Yan Hou Fu and Su Guogong Fu. On the day of the Fubao summoning, the common people of Great Yan went to the Ministry of Revenue with full expectations; the open ground was packed with people, and the cultivation families all came as well.
