Chapter 1197: Education
After being checkmated by the children, Qi Xiuyuan was instantly in no mood to continue playing with them. After learning everything from Tiger Head, he quickly made up his mind. "Second Prince, you can stay at your Fourth Uncle’s house for two days while the Third Prince and Fourth Prince will stay at the palace. As punishment, each of you will write 200 words when you get back. Whoever told you that you can achieve your wish just by crying?"
The Third Prince and the Fourth Prince didn’t expect that not only were they not allowed to follow them out of the palace, but they were also punished. Seeing them pout and about to burst into tears, Qi Xiuyuan glared at them coldly and said, "If anyone dares to cry, I’ll punish them to write another 500 words. Also, no meat for you before you finish writing!"
Tiger Head and Little Lion immediately covered their cousins’ mouths and winked at them.
When the two children thought of the additional punishment, they could only hold back their tears.
It was not until they left the Imperial Study that Tiger Head and Little Lion finally let go of their mouths and comforted them. "It’s just 200 words and easily finished if you put in the work. Unlike us, if we dare to cry and act shamelessly to ask for things, my father will definitely beat us up. Not only will he make us write words, but he’ll also forbid us from riding horses. Also, he’ll mock us for being girly."
The Second Prince also came over to apologize to his two younger brothers. "I’ll definitely bring you something fun when I come back. But you guys mustn’t cry so easily in the future."
The three of them worked together and finally coaxed the two brats away.
Tiger Head and Little Lion wiped the sweat off their foreheads and sighed. "It’s been tough on Mother."
With his hands behind his back, Little An said profoundly, "Wenqian and Wenmi turned out this way because Royal Uncle spoiled them. Previously, he found Wenqian and Wenmi’s cries annoying, so he tried his best to fulfill their wishes in order to make them stop. This made the duo feel that crying could get them what they wanted. Therefore, they would start crying every time something went wrong."
Tiger Head and Little Lion widened their eyes and asked, "How did you know?"
