Chapter 2706: Chapter 2706: It’s Impossible to Swallow

"They deserve it!"

An Yilu scoffed lightly and said.

Although he is still young and always studying, he often hears Dean Ding Nuo talking about the matters in the capital.

It’s those second-generation heirs from major clans, always bullying ordinary citizens in the streets, leaving the people with no place to seek justice, so pitiful.

And yet, Uncle Emperor resides in the royal palace, even if he learns about the outside happenings from others, he cannot immediately take action against these major clans. They’re aware of this, hence their blatant impunity.

"They’ll surely meet a dreadful end in the hands of Daddy and Mummy." An Yixing whispered.

Of course, this only applies to those major clans who have done wrong. If the clans are law-abiding, Daddy and Mummy won’t trouble them.

But, are there truly law-abiding major clans? If they were truly upright, how could they become such a clan, spreading forces throughout the capital, with deep-rooted connections?

"Brother Lu, let’s go. Daddy prepared a small boat for us. See, they definitely won’t have time to accompany us, we’ll go by ourselves."

Little Qian Yinuo longed for the boating and picking lotus flowers and leaves. He’s been waiting for several days.

"Wait a little longer. Once Daddy and the others get on the lotus boat, then we’ll go,"

An Yilu said. He heard the steward mention today’s schedule; after eating, they’ll board the lotus boat. That’s when they can go, and Daddy and Mummy will be able to see them, easing their worries.

"How long do we have to wait?"

As soon as Qian Yinuo heard they had to wait, his face changed instantly. He wanted to go right now.

But he’s the youngest here, he could only listen to his brothers. Wait then, anyway, he could go boating today, he’ll wait a little longer.

"Alright alright, I’ll wait. Let’s have some snacks first."

With that, he stopped looking at those Noble Clan Patriarchs silently shedding tears while eating the wild vegetables and instead, sat down on the steps outside with his brothers.

"Brothers, let’s exchange snacks. I have lots of snacks."

"We have some too."

An Yixing and Yi Zhou also took out their snacks.

Of course, what they have, An Yilu also has. Since bringing An Yilu back to the royal residence, An Jiuyue gifted the Qiankun Bag to the little guy, and placed many snacks inside.

...

On this side, each Patriarch felt a heavy heart, holding trembling chopsticks, very reluctant to grab food, but under the watchful eyes of the two princes, they couldn’t help but grab food and shove it into their mouths.

They felt like their throats must be suffering, maybe they’ve been cut and bruised by the tough wild vegetables and bleeding?

After much patience, they finally looked forward to the main dish, hoping they wouldn’t suffer anymore but instead see bowls of coarse corn grits rice, their throats already wounded by the wild vegetables couldn’t swallow this.

If the main seats weren’t occupied by the two princes, they would have really wanted to leave in a huff.

Finally, after what felt like an entire century, the two princes who ate extremely slowly, finally put down their chopsticks, and all the Patriarchs also put down their chopsticks, unwilling to eat anymore.

If they ate any more, they feared they’d have nightmares for the rest of their lives.

"Has everyone finished eating?"

An Jiuyue asked pretending not to know as she saw them quickly put down their chopsticks.

"There are still so many dishes here, it would be such a waste. Let me decide, when each Patriarch leaves, take all the leftovers back, and there’ll be something to eat in the evening."
