Chapter 89: So Blessed

Rong Yang wanted to go to the Yan Guogong Manor, but he hesitated in his heart.

Qin He returned to the Xue Wang Manor from the Qin Yan Hou Manor. The maid's face was pale. Qin He invited a physician to check on the maid. The physician was a cultivator and, after taking the maid's pulse, withdrew his hand.

"The spiritual root is destroyed," the physician said.

The maid's face turned white, and Qin He couldn't believe it, "Impossible, she was just flicked away."

The physician said, "The spiritual root is indeed destroyed."

Qin He didn't believe it and found He Yan's advisor to take a look at the maid. The spiritual root was indeed destroyed, and there wasn't a trace of cultivation left. She was equivalent to a useless person. The maid collapsed, unable to believe it.

Xue Qing asked what happened and was puzzled, "For no reason, how could her spiritual root be destroyed?"

Qin He didn't know. This maid was a capable subordinate given to her by He Yan and had handled quite a few things for her over the years. They had only argued a few words in the Qin Yan Hou Manor, and the guards on both sides hadn't even fought. How could her subordinate have had her spiritual root destroyed?

The cultivation level of the guards beside Qin Bi wasn't much higher than those beside her. It didn't make sense that a Green-Tier martial cultivator could have her spiritual root destroyed in front of everyone. Qin Bi had only flicked her sleeve; could that destroy a spiritual root?!

Qin He didn't mention it, and Xue Qing didn't know Qin Bi had taken action.

Qin He wasn't protecting Qin Bi; she just didn't think that Qin Bi, who had a mixed spiritual root, had the ability to destroy a spiritual root. She didn't care and didn't take it into consideration, so Qin He didn't mention this matter.

Xue Qing was displeased, "I'll go find Heir Apparent Rong and talk about why he destroyed a martial cultivator beside you."

Qin He stopped him. She knew Heir Apparent Rong's temperament clearly. Going to find Rong Juan would only result in being mocked. It was simply wishful thinking to expect the Heir Apparent to reprimand his subordinates. Besides, Qin He couldn't figure out who had taken action.

Thinking too much, Qin He moved the fetus, and Xue Qing hurriedly used heavenly treasures.

When He Yan learned that the maid was destroyed, his gaze was calm. *Destroyed is destroyed. * Back then, Qin Bi was still his fiancée, and this maid actually dared to take action. Being destroyed was light.

Xue Qing sent someone to find He Yan to ask for precious medicine. If there were good things, the Yan Guogong Manor was wealthier than the Xue Wang Manor. The foundation of the Yan Guogong Manor was wealthier than the Xue Wang Manor in terms of birds, beasts, and mountain delicacies.

He Yan met the person and, upon hearing this, sent over a few things obtained from the Beast Realm's small space.

Qin He used good things to nourish herself, and she only eased a little, but her morning sickness was severe. Xue Qing was very nervous, and the Xue Wang Fei went to Qin He's courtyard several times, worried that Qin He wouldn't be able to eat and that it would be bad for the child.

Qin He was blessed, and the child she gave birth to was also blessed. The Xue Wang Fei was very satisfied with Qin He.

Qin He was grateful, and the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law was harmonious.

The Yan Guogong Manor kept sending things to the Xue Wang Manor, and it spread throughout Jingcheng. The noble ladies twisted their little handkerchiefs, envious, jealous, and hateful. How could a person be so blessed and so pampered?

Rong Yang didn't struggle anymore. He wanted to go to the Yan Guogong Manor; otherwise, he would feel stifled in his heart. He didn't need to acknowledge his father, but the people of the Yan Guogong Manor couldn't protect Fubao and her mother.

Rong Yang was small, only half a year old. After a trip to the palace and a word with the little prince Yan Xun, Yan Xun followed him eagerly. In the winter, He Yan was rarely at the manor; he had just returned from the Beast Realm space and wanted to rest at home for a few days.

The servant reported, "Heir Apparent, the little Heir Apparent Rong and the little Imperial Prince are here to see you."

He Yan was in the study, holding a book, flipping through it lightly. Upon hearing this, he lifted his eyelids and swept a glance at the sky outside the house. It was a sunny day, the sun was good. Every time the child came, he chose a gloomy day.

The child always played at the manor gate every time he came and didn't enter the manor.

This time he actually wanted to enter the manor. He Yan thought for a moment, "Take them to the living room."

The servant retreated and brought the two children to the living room not long after. Rong Yang observed the Yan Guogong Manor in all directions. This should have been his home. The child knew it clearly in his heart and naturally wanted to take a few more looks.

There was a charcoal stove in the living room, not very warm, but not cold either.

He Yan went outside the door to welcome them, entered the living room, and sat down. The guards held the children and sat on chairs. He Yan asked, "I don't know what business the little Heir Apparent and the little Imperial Prince have in coming to my manor?"

The little Imperial Prince Yan Xun sat upright and pointed at Rong Yang, "He has business, I don't."

He Yan moved his gaze over and picked up the tea bowl to drink tea. There was light tea in front of the children; strong tea wasn't suitable for children. The little Imperial Prince and the little Heir Apparent had noble status, and they couldn't be treated slowly even if they were small.

"What business does the little Heir Apparent have with me?" He Yan asked.

"Is the person beside Fubao's mother your person?" Rong Yang asked, sitting upright.

He Yan understood and put down the tea bowl, "I gave them. What's wrong?"

"Your people protect Fubao's mother and are not good to my mother," Rong Yang looked at He Yan, milky-voiced but with a serious face, "Take your people back. The people of the Yan Guogong Manor cannot protect someone else."

He Yan didn't respond, "Who told you to come?"

Rong Yang said, "I wanted to come myself."

The little Imperial Prince added, "He wanted to come himself."

He Yan was silent. He looked at Rong Yang and said, "Why should I listen to you? Fubao is someone I watched grow up. It is only right and proper to send people to protect her. The little Heir Apparent's request is excessive."

Rong Yang climbed down from the chair, wobbled to He Yan, and looked up, "Father."

He Yan's brows moved, but he didn't respond. Rong Juan's son was going too far. To make him take the people back, he actually called him Father. He didn't know how angry Rong Juan would be if he knew.

"I called you Father," Rong Yang said, "Can't you take the people back?"

He Yan opened his mouth, "You are Rong Juan's son."

Rong Yang's eyes turned red, and he said with his little face raised, "I look like you."

He Yan looked at the child a few more times. The child's eyes were moist. Suddenly, He Yan's heart tugged; it was very inexplicable. Looking carefully, the child's brows and eyes were familiar. He thought he looked like Rong Juan or Qin Bi.

He Yan stared at the child, his eyes flashing, his heartbeat accelerating.

Rong Yang leaned into He Yan's arms and said with grievance, "Take the people back. If you don't take them back, what should I do!"

The child was about to cry, calling out, "Father."

He Yan's heart ached. Looking at the child in his arms, soft and fluffy, he had never looked at him before. Qin Bi's child—He Yan didn't want to have too much interaction, but now the child had run to find him himself.

"He is not your father," the little Imperial Prince said.

"He is," Rong Yang affirmed.

He Yan's heart felt stifled. When did he marry Qin Bi? He Yan deliberately forgot. Also, when was this child born? He Yan pondered in his heart but didn't make a sound.

"He is not, he is not......" the little Imperial Prince pulled Rong Yang.

Rong Yang looked up at He Yan, "Father."

He Yan subconsciously picked up the child. Rong Yang lowered his head and said to the little Imperial Prince, "He is."

The little Imperial Prince was worried, "Let's go, let's go, don't come again in the future."

He Yan's heart felt stifled. Rong Yang didn't leave and still kept turning his head to say to He Yan, "Father, take the people back. Otherwise, I won't be able to come to the Yan Guogong Manor in the future."

If the people of the Yan Guogong Manor protected Qin He and made things difficult for Qin Bi, Rong Yang couldn't accept it.

He Yan was a powerful minister with superior strategy. Looking at the child, he ordered, "Take the people back."
