Raising My Children With My Personal Spatial Ability

Chapter 2702: Chapter 2702: I Wouldn’t Dare Entertain Such Thoughts

Actually, it’s just that there’s business dealings on a regular basis, hardly any serious conversations, all conducted by the subordinates.

”It’s just as well they’ve left.”

He looked around, feeling awkward standing there alone with nothing to do.

Fortunately, he spotted someone he was familiar with nearby, and quickly walked over. After some pleasantries, at his suggestion, they found a discreet corner to stay.

”Brother Gou, why did you bring me to such a corner?” The Family Head he brought along saw himself standing in a corner, frowned, and asked.

He received the invitation sent by the two princes’ aides, and was so excited, thinking about making an appearance in front of the two today.

As soon as he entered the Moonlight Tavern, he was led to such an inconspicuous corner by Patriarch Gou.

”Brother Jin, are you foolish?”

Patriarch Gou saw Patriarch Jin’s displeasure, furrowed his brow, and lowered his voice.

”Have you ever seen those two invite others without reason? Even in the past with those various flower banquets, their presence was never to be seen.

Now, they’ve just returned to the capital, and make a big fuss to invite us, but not the numerous royal court ministers, rather us, the Noble Clan Patriarchs!

Don’t you feel there’s some undisclosed motives behind this?”

Although many royal court ministers mostly hail from these major clans, those two are not inviting ministers, but those seemingly insignificant, actually supporting their clan’s high-ranking figures’ heads; doesn’t it deserve some suspicion?

”What...do you mean by this?”

Patriarch Jin was stunned, his expression suddenly darkening. He also lowered his voice, asking quietly.

Could this banquet actually be a trap? Do they intend to slay them or what? But they haven’t offended those two, have they?

”Nothing much, just better to be cautious.”

Patriarch Gou glanced at everyone, seeing them all confident wanting to show off in front of the two princes, shook his head.

He had no intention, thinking to make a fleeting appearance, just letting the two know he was there, watching from the sidelines, while others displayed their abilities.

”Aspiring to gain from the princes’ attention and prosper, I dare not imagine, but if Brother Jin wishes, he may go ahead.”

”No, no, no.”

Upon hearing this, Patriarch Jin shook his head repeatedly.

Though the Jin Family is not a particularly large clan, it’s doing quite fine; there’s no need to risk it all for development.

It’s one thing for others to take risks, but involving those two, if things go awry, it would mean annihilation; he doesn’t want to lead the whole family towards destruction.

To eradicate major clans like theirs, for the two princes, it’s only a matter of moments; didn’t you hear the Retired Emperor has been imprisoned?

”Let’s just stay here, it’s better not to make a spectacle.”

He, at this point, understood clearly, although invited, the two princes have yet to appear.

If truly here to host them, why not arrive sooner, awaiting the Noble Clan Patriarchs one by one, instead of no signs, only a few of the manor’s managers showing up?

”Might the two princes have heard something? Our unruly ones at home, though not exceptional, haven’t caused major trouble, couldn’t have caught the princes’ attention, right?”
