Chapter 2351: Chapter 2351: The Nobles Do Not Hold the Petty Accountable
The Thin Man shouted at him, "Fatty Brother, Fatty Brother, what happened to you? Are you burned?"
His brother had just shielded him from disaster, and the Thin Man felt guilty inside, watching him get burned, he was extremely anxious.
"Burn... burn... burn, it’s so hot." The Fat Man was jumping on the spot.
The Thin Man’s fiery temper flared up again, turning to point at Long Yi, "You... you are too bullying!"
He mainly feared Long Rui and dared not provoke him, so he could only vent his anger at Long Yi.
"Big Brother... don’t scold them, I was the one who accidentally got burned." The Fat Man knew his brother had a fiery temper, prone to offending people, and now their lives depended on this young lady before them, so they couldn’t let his brother offend them.
So, enduring the pain, he said to Long Rui and Xuexue, "Prince, Princess Consort, I was ignorant and didn’t recognize you, clashed with your grandeur, I hope you, magnanimous ones, do not hold grudges against us brothers."
The Fat Man was much more attentive than his brother, hearing the identity of Long Rui and Xuexue from the conversation just now.
Thin Man: "Fatty Brother..."
At this point, the Fat Man had caught his breath, the burnt area was no longer in pain, he reached out to stop him, "Big Brother, don’t say anymore, the Princess Consort kindly helped us cure, we were being ungrateful and wronged them."
The Thin Man caught the keyword and asked in confusion, "Princess Consort?"
His temperament was quite impatient, just now as he burst into anger, he didn’t hear what Xuexue and Long Rui said at all.
The Fat Man pulled him aside, whispered in his ear for a while, the Thin Man nodded while occasionally glancing at Xuexue with a look of sudden enlightenment.
As they were whispering together, the old man nearby, with eyes reddened, stood up from his stool with a murderous aura.
"Sit down, don’t move."
The guards standing beside him immediately pulled out the knives from their waists, placing them at his neck.
Knowing the old man was afflicted with madness, Long Rui had already been on guard against him.
That’s why, when he moved, the guards were ready to defend.
"Ah...!" The old man let out a loud roar, but helplessly, several guards fiercely pinned him down, rendering him unable to move.
The two brothers heard their father’s voice, turned their heads to see, were shocked, and hurriedly pleaded to Long Rui, "Prince, please, spare our father!"
Long Rui replied coldly, "Weren’t you just full of hatred for your father infecting madness to you? I’m helping you deal with it, isn’t it better?"
The Fat and Thin Man exchanged glances, their faces collapsed completely, "Prince, no matter what, he is our father, as sons, we cannot just stand by and do nothing, please, spare him."
Long Rui: "You plan to take him back to harm others?"
The Fat Man looked at Xuexue, eyes filled with hope, and said, "The Princess Consort can heal, right?"
Then, he removed the black token from his waist, walked up to Xuexue, and offered it to her, "Princess Consort, I give you this token, please, save us father and sons!"
Xuexue knew this token was valuable, she took it without hesitation, put it in her bosom, and reluctantly said, "Alright, considering your filial piety, I’ll make an exception this time."
Fat Man: "Really?"
Xuexue: "Yes!"
Long Yi was still standing aside, holding the medicine pot.
Xuexue turned to glance at him and said, "We’ve already settled it, what are you dawdling for?"
Long Yi was clearly caught off guard, looking bewildered, "Huh?"
