Chapter 599 My Darling
Why is it said that he was in a bad mood?
Oh dear, when things are properly teleported back, the teleportation array is usually quite stable. But this one, with a "bang," it's thrown back as if it was angrily thrown away, kicking up dust.
Yesterday, a group of troops from the Rongwang Mansion were teleported back. Where there are trees, there is soil. The Ministry of Works had just cleaned up the teleportation array, yet it was still stirring up dust, which shows how much effort they put into teleporting them back.
People from the Duke of Su's mansion and the Shen family were drinking tea in several teahouses when they suddenly froze, their eyes drawn to the sight of many fine trees and branches.
These are all we can see so far. There are other things, but none are as eye-catching as the trees and branches. The people from each household were immediately drawn to the trees. Qin Xun almost lost his balance and had to grab onto a tree to steady himself.
Goodness, this teleportation array is powerful.
Whose house is this?
"People of the Qin Yan Marquis's residence, haven't you seen that young master from the fourth branch of the Qin Yan Marquis's residence?"
"The Qin Yan Marquis's Mansion has no real strength; it has only recently become a cultivation family. How could they possibly have collected so many trees?"
"That's right, only cultivators with high cultivation levels can occupy good small spaces."
"Looking at these trees and branches, they must have found a small space with abundant resources; it will definitely never run dry."
"This teleportation array..."
"From the Xue Prince's Mansion."
Even the Minister of Works picked up a steamed bun. I don't know who had such good timing, sending something back in the middle of the day. The Minister of Works ate his steamed bun and then came to the teleportation array with his subordinates.
At this moment, some people were already shouting for people from the Xue Prince's Mansion.
"Where is Prince Xue? His family has a teleportation array."
"As expected of someone with maxed-out luck, Princess Consort Xue sent the item back so quickly."
"Hiss, the Qin Yan Marquis's mansion is indeed blessed with extraordinary luck. A single mansion has produced two heirs' wives, and they keep sending things back one after another. Yesterday it was Heir Rong's wife, and today it's Heir Xue's wife."
An old man stroked his beard and nodded: "There is indeed some truth to that."
Prince Xue has returned home. Princess Xue is currently having lunch with several female relatives at the teahouse. She was a little surprised when she heard the call, but immediately stood up happily and sent someone back to the mansion to inform Prince Xue and Prince Xue.
The Minister of Works was thin, but very wise.
After stuffing the steamed bun into his mouth and eating it, the Minister of Works walked to the trees and asked Qin Xun, who was brushing the dust off his clothes, "From the Qin Yan Marquis's residence?"
"I am Qin Xun, the second young master of the fourth branch of the Qin Yan Marquis's mansion." Qin Xun introduced himself, then pointed to the trees and spiritual fruits in the teleportation array: "These things belong to the Rong King's mansion. They were collected by the Rong King's wife for the young prince."
The Minister of Works climbed up the trees to a high place and looked at the things that had been teleported back. Sure enough, they were the same as what had been teleported back yesterday. The trees were mainly made of sandalwood, and there were also spiritual fruits growing on the pear trees. There was even a pear tree.
If these items belonged to the Xue Prince's residence, it could only be that the Qin Yan Marquis's residence found a small, well-stocked space and gave one portion to the Rong Heir Apparent's wife and another to the Xue Heir Apparent's wife, without any bias.
The trees sent back today are not as numerous as yesterday, nor are there as many branches or vines for basket weaving.
"Someone has gone to summon people from Prince Xue's residence," the Vice Minister of Works kindly reminded Qin Xun.
Qin Xun frowned: "What does this have to do with the Xue Prince's Mansion? These assets belong to the Rong Prince's Mansion."
"This teleportation array... belongs to the Xue Prince's residence." Qin Xun scoffed, thinking of Qin He's shamelessness, and said, "The teleportation array does indeed belong to the Xue Prince's wife. I'm just using her teleportation array. What? Just because I used the teleportation array, does that mean I have to give everything to the Xue Prince's residence?"
Qin Xun paused for a moment, looked at the old man and the scholar in front of the teleportation array, and said, "I am the elder brother of Qin Bi, the wife of the Crown Prince Rong. I came back with the teleportation array. The items belong to the Rong Prince's Mansion. If they were collected by the Crown Prince Xue, then it should be Qin Jue, the legitimate son of the second branch, who came back with the teleportation array, not me, Qin Xun."
A young scholar lifted his robe and walked away, saying, "I'll go tell the people from the Rong King's mansion."
The Rong Prince's mansion also has a tea stall where children drink tea and eat melon seeds. The Rong heir took the little one home for a nap, but Rong Yang didn't leave. She stayed at the tea stall with the little prince to wait for their family's teleportation array.
Duke Yan, who was with the little dumpling, saw something being teleported back, but he didn't join in the fun. There were so many people, and it wouldn't be good to squeeze through with the little dumpling in tow.
Before the young scholar even arrived, he shouted, "The Rong King's Mansion has sent something back!"
"Huh?" The young prince stood up. "Whose is it?"
"Qin Xun, the second son of the fourth branch of the Qin Yan Marquis's family, came back with the teleportation array, saying it belonged to your Rong Prince's family." The scholar bluntly stated, "But the teleportation array belongs to the Xue Prince's family."
Upon hearing this, Duke Yan was furious. If it involved Qin He, it would be close to taking away most of the profits.
No one knows Qin He's character better than the Duke of Yan. Because He Yan is destined to be widowed and childless, and because He Yan shows deep affection for Qin He, the Duke of Yan has given her many rare and precious treasures.
What is Qin He? She's insatiable; she never thinks she has enough, no matter how much she gives her.
Not only was Duke Yan worried about Qin He, but Rong Yang immediately jumped off the chair: "The family fortune that my mother saved for me, Uncle He Zu, go and call my brother. Our family has sent things back."
The guards brought the horse, and He Zu mounted and rode away.
Rong Yang hurriedly ran to the teleportation array with the little prince. Duke Yan picked Rong Yang up and took her to the tea stall of the Qin Yan Marquis's residence next door, where he told the Qin Yan Marquis's wife.
Lady Qin Yanhou followed, and the group went to the Ministry of Works' teleportation array.
Princess Xue also went over and asked the Minister of Works, "Wasn't this something sent back by our Crown Prince's wife?"
"It was clearly my mother who sent it to me!" Fu Bao shouted angrily. "You're trying to steal my things! My mother has maxed-out luck, but Rong Yang's mother doesn't. These things were collected by my mother."
Lady Qin Yanhou went to ask Qin Xun, and Qin Xun whispered to her how Qin He had used the explosives. Lady Qin Yanhou pursed her lips and exhaled a deep breath.
"Don't worry," said Lady Qin Yanhou. "I'm in charge here. Let's see who dares to steal from me."
Lady Qin Yanhou didn't lower her voice for the last sentence, so Princess Xue heard it.
“That’s not how it works,” Princess Xue said. “The teleportation array belongs to my family.”
Duke Yan said, "Princess Consort Xue, your Princess Consort Xue is indeed very good at collecting things. That's enough. There are rules for teleporting things back from the small space in the Demon Beast Realm. The item belongs to the person who brings it back with the teleportation array."
Princess Xue was unwilling to give up and was about to say something when Prince Rong, carrying the little baby, arrived with King Rong and Marquis Qin Yan, bringing two groups of people to the teleportation array.
"My dear." The little dumpling was no longer sleepy and let out this cry in a childish voice.
The Crown Prince Rong exuded a murderous aura. With a wave of his hand, his subordinates immediately began moving the teleportation array's components, not bothering to waste any words. (End of Chapter)
