Raising My Children With My Personal Spatial Ability

Chapter 2704: Chapter 2704: Where Could They Get Used to Eating This?

Sure, here’s the translation:

This is the true foundation of strength; those who are fickle like the grass on a wall, regardless of which powerful leg they cling to, will ultimately meet a bad end. This is an eternal truth.

In the end, these past years the Retired Emperor has indeed stirred too much trouble, and as the Emperor’s son, he cannot completely sever relations with the Retired Emperor.

Now, with two princes holding the fort, the Retired Emperor dares not make any moves, allowing the Emperor to deal with those people with peace of mind.

”When the two princes arrive later, let’s just listen to them and do whatever they ask.”

”That’s what I think too.”

Patriarch Jin nodded, thinking that preserving his life under the watchful eyes of the two princes was the most important.

The more someone jumps around energetically, the more likely they are to reap what they sow and meet a tragic end.

The two chatted a little while longer before falling silent. After half an hour, Qian Jiyun and An Jiuyue finally arrived, and once they did, all the Noble Clan Patriarchs dared not speak, standing cautiously without a word.

As soon as Qian Jiyun and An Jiuyue entered, they took the main seats, with An Jiuyue warmly inviting everyone to find seats.

”Everyone, please sit down, there’s no need to stand.”

Upon hearing this, everyone quietly found seats but still did not dare to speak, for these two warranted deference even from the Emperor.

”Is everyone here?”

An Jiuyue looked up, asking the steward beside her.

”Master, everyone is here,” the steward replied respectfully.

”Alright.”

An Jiuyue nodded.

”Serve the dishes.”

Qian Jiyun instructed calmly.

”Yes, Master.”

The steward responded, striding outside to instruct the inn’s chef to serve the dishes.

The chef in the inn had long prepared the dishes; the key point was that these dishes were exceedingly easy to prepare, though it was uncertain if these Noble Clan Patriarchs, accustomed to a life of luxury, could stomach them.

Soon, the workers in the inn brought up each dish.

But the moment these Noble Clan Patriarchs saw the dishes served on the table, their expressions darkened, almost murmuring in complaint.

On the table were ordinary wild vegetables, nothing more ordinary than these, and they couldn’t even name them, having never tasted such things in their entire lives.

The workers in the inn served dishes for a good while, yet not a single person moved their chopsticks.

Firstly, neither Qian Jiyun nor An Jiuyue had given the word to start eating; secondly, these dishes looked unappetizing at a glance, and everyone was used to delicacies—how could they stomach such common fare?

They knew it was unpalatable even before tasting it, so how could they eat it?

”This...”

”Shhh!”

From their inconspicuous corner, even after sitting down, the two who remained unnoticed, Patriarch Jin and Patriarch Gou, spoke. When Patriarch Jin was about to utter a word, Patriarch Gou stopped him.

Even with everyone in the inn, those two could notice the tiniest actions of others.

”Northern Lands.”

Patriarch Gou mouthed silently, and Patriarch Jin understood.

These wild vegetables, aside from the drought-stricken Northern Lands, where else would people eat such things? It appears the two summoned them here because of the Northern Lands.

But the matters of the Northern Lands have nothing to do with them. If donations were needed, that would be handled by the royal court, so why did these two get involved?

It’s really hard to understand, truly inexplicable.
