Chapter 94
Qin Tang understood; Rong Yang was He Yan's child.
Taking a deep breath, Qin Tang looked at his father, Qin Di.
Qin Xun, who was standing outside the door, was also stunned. He looked around guardedly. Jiang Shi and his wife were talking not far away. Qin Xun entered the main hall living room in disbelief; he couldn't stay outside the room for such a major event!
Qin Bi glanced at him. Qin Xun walked to He Shi and took Rong Yang over.
He Shi had been in a state of dullness and shock and hadn't come back to her senses yet. Qin Xun held Rong Yang and examined him carefully, his expression changing from serious to pleasantly surprised. Qin Tang and Qin Di also stared intently.
Rong Yang bared his little teeth to see who he looked like.
Qin Di: "..."
This baring of teeth looked like Qin Bi, but had shadows of He Yan.
Qin Di took Rong Yang over. Rong Yang was very well-behaved and said in a milky voice: "Maternal Grandfather, look at me carefully."
Looking at the soft little child, Qin Di's heart softened. His gaze flashed with incredible surprise, and even more pleasant surprise. If this child was He Yan's, this was a big deal.
"Father." Qin Tang said with an excited expression.
Qin Xun was also excited. There were only two powerful officials who were heirs in Great Yan. He Yan couldn't be counted on, and only Rong Juan was the reliance of the fourth branch. Looking at it now, if He Yan, who was cursed to have no wife or children, had a child, and it was born by Qin Bi, they would have to fight for Rong Yang.
In the imperial family, they fight for the throne, and in the families of powerful officials, there are also titles to fight for.
Who helps fight for it? Naturally, it's the maternal grandfather's family!
Don't look at how Rong Juan and He Yan get along well with the Qin family; in fact, there is a huge gap between them. The positions of powerful officials held by Rong Juan and He Yan were something they could never reach in their entire lives.
With Rong Yang and the one Qin Bi was carrying, the people of the Qin Yan Hou Manor had a goal to strive for.
Qin Xun looked at Qin Bi again, with admiration in his eyes. Amazing. For the sake of Rong Yang and the one Qin Bi was carrying, they should carefully calculate. Among so many sisters, only this one was amazing.
"What do you mean by 'this is very good'?" Qin Di asked, holding Rong Yang, having finally come back to his senses.
Glancing at the child, Qin Di remembered when Qin Bi and He Yan divorced and sighed. Perhaps they had been too anxious back then. If they hadn't divorced, Rong Yang would have stayed by He Yan's side and would have been spoiled.
Fortunately, it's not bad now; Heir Rong loves Rong Yang very much.
"This is a major event; we must tell the Yan Guogong Manor." He Shi said excitedly.
He Shi couldn't make the decision on this matter. Her father couldn't stop He Shi, and the two elder brothers couldn't stop her either. Qin Bi said: "Qin He is favored by the Heavenly Dao of this world, and she cannot do without He Yan's help. Therefore, if Rong Yang returns to the Yan Guogong Manor, our Emperor will have a hidden sense of unease."
Qin Di, Qin Tang, and Qin Xun were stunned. He Shi was anxious: "Your maternal grandfather and maternal grandmother have been looking forward to a child until their eyes turned red. Even if the Emperor is uneasy, he cannot ignore the feelings of our Yan Guogong Manor."
"Heavenly Dao favor only lasts ten years; if it were a cultivator, it would be a hundred years." Qin Bi was very calm; she prioritized Great Yan: "Just wait. If Rong Yang wants to return, he can naturally return to the Yan Guogong Manor."
He Shi couldn't wait. What is the meaning of hiding a He family child from the He family?
Waiting until the Heavenly Dao no longer favors Qin He—who knows when that will be.
Qin Di calmed down and gave Qin Tang and Qin Xun a wink. The two went over to explain the pros and cons to He Shi. In the middle, Qin Xun even walked to the door of the main hall to take a look, saw that Jiang Shi and his wife were still there, and went back to talk to He Shi.
Qin Di took this opportunity to ask Qin Bi and learned that no one was stopping Rong Yang from getting close to He Yan. Qin Di had a plan in his heart; Rong Yang not acknowledging He Yan was temporary, and Rong Yang would return to the Yan Guogong Manor sooner or later.
Qin Di looked at Rong Yang in his arms. The one Qin Bi was carrying hadn't been born yet, so they had to fight for Rong Yang now!
Never mind the vegetables in the fief for now. Qin Di held Rong Yang and didn't give him to Qin Bi. He Shi wanted to come over to dote on him but was refused by Qin Di turning to the side. He used a summoning artifact to call Qin Tan back from the place where he was stationed.
Qin Tan opened the teleportation array and returned very quickly. Qin Lang was puzzled; why did his father suddenly return?
"Father, why did you come back?" Qin Lang leaned in eagerly.
"Go to your fourth uncle's place." Qin Tan strode away.
Qin Lang's eyes lit up, and he rubbed his hands: "Are we going to discuss going to the second branch to beat people up?"
Qin Tan paused his steps: "What's wrong with the second branch again?"
So it wasn't to beat people up. Qin Lang was somewhat disappointed, followed Qin Tan, and told him the words spread from the second branch. Qin Tan felt it was unlikely he was called back for this matter.
Entering the main courtyard of the fourth branch, Qin Tan saw Qin Di holding a child and smiled: "Qin Bi is back."
Qin Di nodded, led Qin Tan away: "Let's go to the study to talk."
Qin Tang and Qin Xun followed. Qin Tan was a County Magistrate, so he still had the ability to observe expressions. Seeing the expressions of the few, he followed to the study. As soon as Qin Lang entered the room, he took Rong Yang; the two had a good relationship.
Qin Xun snatched him over and walked to Qin Tan and Qin Di.
Qin Di glanced at Rong Yang: "He Yan's child."
Qin Tan was stunned, then suddenly stood up: "What?"
Qin Lang was stunned into a wooden chicken. Qin Tan was lost for a moment, looked at Qin Di, took a deep breath, and Qin Tan looked solemn: "Let's calculate and fight for the title for Rong Yang."
Qin Di nodded; that was his intention too.
This discussion lasted for half a day. There was no way around it; there were too many things to consider. The third and fourth branches didn't have enough strength, but a great opportunity was right in front of them. The children of the two powerful officials of Great Yan were both born by the daughters of the fourth branch. If the maternal grandfather's family didn't fight for them, who would?
After protecting the one Qin Bi was carrying, they still had to plan for Rong Yang.
According to Qin Tan, they should pull in the first branch, but Qin Yan of the first branch was close to the second branch. Rong Yang currently didn't want to acknowledge He Yan, so revealing it to the first branch was inappropriate. Qin Di wanted to wait and see.
Only when it came time to use people did Qin Tan and Qin Di feel that the children of the Qin family were too few and not enough to use.
Qin Tang and Qin Xun calculated that they really didn't have many children. Otherwise, a group of little brothers could follow Rong Yang to serve, and the children of the Qin family would naturally prioritize Rong Yang.
Rong Yang was still young, and it wouldn't be easy to grow up steadily.
Qin Bi was accompanying He Shi at this time, and Jiang Shi and Lin Shi were also there. These two were still wondering what the men were discussing, looking so solemn. It couldn't be that they were going to fight the second branch, right!
Lin Shi was uneasy. Jiang Shi was surprised by Qin Bi's peace of mind. In the past, whenever Heir Rong came, he would stare at the child playing, not letting the child out of his sight, as nervous as could be.
Rong Yang had been gone for a while, and Qin Bi was actually able to sit still.
Qin Bi could naturally sit still. As long as they weren't stupid, her father and brothers would protect Rong Yang well. He Shi was absent-minded, her heart full of things she couldn't say. If He Yan hadn't wanted to take a concubine wife back then, there wouldn't have been so many things.
It's fine now; after such a big circle, Rong Yang ran to the Rong family.
The Yan Guogong Manor was still looking forward to a child, but they had driven him away themselves.
Qin He still had fortune, but this concubine-born daughter was a troublemaker. He Shi had never looked down on Qin He as much as she did at this moment.
