Chapter 445: Summoning, Then Summoning

~9 min read 1,616 words

The Great Yan Emperor rubbed his hands together, waiting for the Prime Minister to return.

Since the He He Shizi did not bring the child today and was in the palace, the Great Yan Emperor sat nearby, eating cake while watching the He He Shizi hold a brush and review memorials. When the Great Yan Emperor grew idle, he reached out, took the reviewed memorials, and glanced through them.

"He He Shizi," the Great Yan Emperor set a memorial aside, took a bite of cake, and said, "Where is that childhood sweetheart of yours? I heard she is certain that the snow falling at the Rong Wang Fu was summoned by her luck."

The He He Shizi knew she referred to Qin He, lowered his eyes, and continued reviewing memorials.

The Great Yan Emperor seemed very idle; holding a cake in one hand, he poked the He He Shizi: "Call your sweetheart to summon it. Our Great Yan is very short of brilliant genius cultivators. If she has talent, tell her to summon. With the Emperor here, no one will stop her."

The He He Shizi's expression showed a hint of thought. No need to ask; the Great Yan Emperor possessed maxed-out luck. His secret guards could not be deceived by anything. He likely heard it was false, but Qin He had indeed claimed that the rain and snow were summoned by her luck.

In the past, the He He Shizi would naturally favor Qin He.

Now, the He He Shizi stood up, went out to the hall, and ordered a guard to go to the Xue Wang Fu.

The He He Shizi had no extra words; he simply sent a message to the Xue He Shizi: "Tell Qin He to summon rain and snow."

The He He Shizi had cared for the Xue Wang Fu for so many years; his words carried weight. Upon receiving the message, the Xue He Shizi immediately arranged for Qin He to summon. Qin He paced back and forth in the room, trapped in a difficult situation.

The Xue He Shizi went to find the Xue Wang Fei and asked her for two spirit fruits.

Returning to his own courtyard as the He Shizi, the Xue He Shizi said, "Qin He, eat the spirit fruit to nourish your spiritual foundation. The He He Shizi has not visited us for a long time. He sent a message; rest a while, then go summon the snow."

Qin He pressed her forehead: "I feel dizzy."

The Xue He Shizi examined Qin He's complexion: "Much better than two days ago. You were fine from yesterday until today; why are you dizzy now? Do not worry too much about this summoning. As long as you possess the luck of the Qin Yan Hou Fu, even a small luck group can go to the Rong Wang Fu; it will surely come to our Xue Wang Fu."

Speaking thus, the Xue He Shizi's eyes held pride: "By then, your luck will be truly high. If the luck group rushing to the Xue Wang Fu is stronger than the one going to the Rong Wang Fu, your cousin Qin Bi will be nothing. Compared to you, Qin He, she is still lacking."

Encouraged by the Xue He Shizi, Qin He took a deep breath. If it was summoning, then summon it. She was a female protagonist who had transmigrated into a cultivation world; how could she be inferior to Qin Bi? Qin Bi had only started cultivating last year, and her cultivation base had not even been ranked. She, Qin He, was a disciple of the Immortal Sect.

To be honest, Qin He did not believe the luck group of the Qin Yan Hou Fu would rush to the Rong Wang Fu to summon. Fake, fake, all fake. How could that be? Luck and fortune should revolve around her, Qin He.

Qin Bi was formerly just a small concubine-born daughter of the fourth branch of the Hou Fu. If the luck of the Qin Yan Hou Fu ran to the Rong Wang Fu to summon, Qin He gritted her teeth. It must be that when the He He Shizi said he would marry a co-wife, Qin Bi married into the Yan Guogong Fu first, thus stealing the luck of the Yan Guogong Fu Rong Shizifei meant for her.

Thinking back now, Qin He felt very regretful. If she had known she would not marry the He He Shizi in the end, she would not have cared about being a co-wife. Who was she tormenting? She, Qin He, was destined only to be an Empress or a Rong Shizifei.

A mere co-wife position lowered her status.

Although she claimed regret, Qin He still hoped the He He Shizi had made the move to marry her back then, paving the way for her wholeheartedly. On this point, Qin He felt no regret; it perfectly matched her wishes.

For no other reason; only this way could it show that she was more important to the He He Shizi than Qin Bi, which would annoy Qin Bi.

However, after Qin Bi and the He He Shizi married, Qin He encountered obstacles everywhere. Qin He was sick of it; just thinking about it depressed her. Why did things not go as she hoped? Why did the Rong He Shizi have to marry Qin Bi?

To this day, Qin He could not understand. The Rong He Shizi wore fine clothes and rode a spirited horse, handsome beyond compare. Qin Bi was divorced; why marry Qin Bi? Thinking of this, Qin He angrily smashed something on the table.

"Crash!" Porcelain shattered. Qin He froze, then hurriedly bent down to pick up the pieces.

This was a cultivation world centered on fortune and luck. She was about to summon rain and snow; breaking things was bad. Qin He felt remorseful and accidentally cut her finger.

Qin He dropped it and ignored it; the maid cleaned it up.

Qin He went to find the Xue He Shizi. At that moment, the Xue He Shizi was selecting a summoning artifact. Qin He pinched her finger and said, "How about we summon another day? Today is not good; I cut my finger."

"Why so careless?" The Xue He Shizi put down the item, showed it to Qin He, and said, "It's nothing. A small wound; it won't hinder the summoning. Qin He, the He He Shizi sent a message. He will not trick you. Summoning will benefit you."

Qin He lowered her head and thought; indeed, the He He Shizi always considered her.

The corners of her mouth curled up slightly. Qin He felt proud in her heart and no longer thought the small cut on her finger mattered. Whenever there was something good, the He He Shizi never gave it to Qin Bi; he gave it all to her.

The He He Shizi was the He Shizi of a powerful minister in Great Yan. Thinking of how he treated her with such care made her heart feel sweet.

"Shall we summon outside the Wang Fu gate?" The Xue He Shizi, unaware that Qin He was lost in her own thoughts, had selected the summoning artifact and said to Qin He, "Summoning rain and snow brings many benefits, and it is livelier outside the Wang Fu gate."

Qin He came to her senses and nodded: "Then let us summon outside the Wang Fu gate, so the small luck group of the Qin Yan Hou Fu does not fail to find the Xue Wang Fu. Otherwise, it will hinder my summoning of rain and snow, and Qin Bi will steal the spotlight again."

The Xue He Shizi also wanted Qin He to accumulate fame points, so he nodded. He went to the main courtyard again to mention summoning outside the Xue Wang Fu gate to the Xue Wang and the Xue Wang Fei. Unexpectedly, the Xue Wang frowned.

"Why make such a scene?" The Xue Wang said, "As long as the heavy snow is summoned, can it bury the Rong Shizifei's ability? The Rong Wang Fu summoned rain and snow inside the residence; the snow fell heavily, yet various households still sent gifts."

The Xue He Shizi doted on Qin He: "It is better to summon outside the Wang Fu gate."

The Xue Wang remained silent and lifted his tea bowl to drink.

The Xue Wang Fei hesitated to speak. The Xue He Shizi could not leave either, so he waited on the side for the Xue Wang to speak.

After a while, the Xue Wang said, "Luck is mysterious and profound. Do not think that because the Rong Wang Fu summoned, the small luck group of the Qin Yan Hou Fu rushed there, your Rong Shizifei's summoning will definitely attract the small luck group. Do not be so certain."

The Xue Wang paused, then continued: "Summoning rain and snow inside the residence; if it fails, we can pretend it never happened. But summoning outside the Wang Fu gate; if the small luck group of the Qin Yan Hou Fu does not come, it will be a huge face-slapping."

The Xue He Shizi thought for a moment and said, "Qin He's luck value and fortune value are both very high."

The Xue Wang looked at him. Since Xue Qing was so certain, he gave up: "Do as you please."

The Xue He Shizi left. The Xue Wang Fei had always guarded against the Xue Wang's concubine and concubine-born son. Qin He was the Rong Shizifei, so the Xue Wang Fei said, "Let us go out of the residence to watch in a while. Qin He does indeed have some luck."
