Xiao Muyang looked at the two people above, with a hint of deep meaning in his eyes. It seemed that the prince and the second prince were not in harmony.
On the surface it looks like everything is calm, but secretly it's actually tit-for-tat.
The second prince was really silent and looked straight ahead, as if he was staying out of the matter. As he said before, the final decision on this matter still lies in the hands of the prince, and he can do whatever he wants.
At this moment, all the ministers looked at Lord Cang Tian, waiting for his final decision.
With the words of the second prince, the prince's decision no longer only determines the outcome of this matter, but may also determine some future events, such as Xiao Muyang's final ownership.
Cang Tianjun looked at Xiao Muyang and said calmly: "You should give up on this matter."
After saying these words, the space in the main hall suddenly fell into silence, and you could hear a needle drop.
The ministers looked at Lord Cangtian in shock, as if they did not expect him to say such words, and they directly rejected Xiao Muyang without leaving any room for maneuver.
This is not like the prince's usual behavior.
The prince has always shown his easy-going side to others, keeping a tightrope in everything and never doing anything too extreme. Why does he have a completely different attitude towards this matter?
The king glanced at the prince, his eyes looked very calm, as if the prince had made this decision before he expected it.
The prince is now the crown prince in name only, and the future king should have the spirit of a king.
Kings can be tolerant to their subordinates and show their gentle side, but they will never allow anyone to influence their will.
No one is qualified for this.
If it weren't for Cang Tianlin's words, the prince might have been more tolerant, but after saying that, he pushed Xiao Muyang to be the prince's opponent. If the prince refused, it would mean that he might lose Xiao Muyang's help in the future.
However, what kind of status does the prince have? How can he be threatened by others?
Even though Xiao Muyang is extremely talented and may have extraordinary achievements in practice in the future, the prince still cannot give in. Moreover, he must show the courage that a future king should have and reject Xiao Muyang's request forcefully.
From this point of view, the prince did what a king should do.
And all of this is caused by Heaven's hand. If the prince agrees, his prestige will be lost; if he refuses, he will lose the loyalty of a genius.
No matter what the prince decides, Cang Tianlin will always be the beneficiary.
I saw a hint of relief in the king's eyes. He was indeed right about these two heirs. Not only were they outstandingly talented, but they both had the appearance of an emperor. As long as they were nurtured well, they would become great talents in the future.
Xiao Muyang couldn't help but tremble when he heard the prince's answer. In fact, he had been mentally prepared before and guessed that the prince might refuse, but after hearing it with his own ears, he still couldn't calm down.
He vaguely guessed that the prince might be worried about his prestige, so he rejected him, but from his perspective, he could not accept this result.
He must avenge this.
"In order to make up for you, in addition to the promise the king made to you, I may make a promise to you. You can think about it carefully." Lord Cangtian looked at Xiao Muyang and said, his tone was very calm.
Xiao Muyang raised his head and looked at the Cangtian Lord sitting above him. He saw a prince who was different from before. His face was calm, but very majestic, as if he could not be blasphemed.
At this moment, Xiao Muyang seemed to understand something. Perhaps, this was the real prince.
How can a member of the royal family really care about what others think?
"Xiao Muyang is just a commoner with a low status and limited talent and knowledge. He cannot be appreciated by the Crown Prince. Therefore, it is better to give the reward to other more outstanding people." I saw Xiao Muyang bowing towards Cang Tianjun and saying, his tone was extremely calm, and there was no hint of anger.
meaning.
However, when Xiao Muyang's words came out, the eyes of all the ministers in the palace flashed with shock, as if they did not expect Xiao Muyang to do this.
By belittling himself, he refused the prince's reward.
"Gu Xing is also not worthy of the reward. Please give it to others, Prince." Gu Xing also said to Cang Tianjun with a very decisive tone, expressing his attitude in the same way as Xiao Muyang.
"These two people are crazy!" Everyone was trembling inwardly.
Cang Tianjun's face gradually became serious, and he stared at Xiao Muyang.
He was very optimistic about Xiao Muyang from the beginning, thinking that he had unlimited potential and would become a big help to him in the future. The fact was exactly what he thought. Xiao Muyang showed an extremely amazing side, hiding his peers from Yuncang Academy.
The light is as bright as the dust.
However, he underestimated Xiao Muyang's personality.
Those truly talented people all have independent personalities and will not be easily controlled by others. They have something they insist on. However, his rejection of Xiao Muyang's request caused Xiao Muyang to lose trust in him.
Now that he has made a decision, he must bear the consequences.
"Then let's do it." Cang Tianjun said calmly, as if nothing happened.
Many ministers glanced at Xiao Muyang and Gu Xing, thinking that these two people were still too young and thought their positions were too high, thinking that they could influence some things with their extraordinary talents. However, in front of the royal power,
Their power is too small and insignificant.
Xiao Muyang returned to his seat, without much expression on his face, and drank by himself.
"You were too impulsive just now. Do you know what it means to do that?"
Stop it.
"Sister, I'm worried, but there are some things that if I don't do, I will feel guilty for the rest of my life." Xiao Muyang said softly.
Xue Wan'er's expression suddenly froze there, and she couldn't say a word.
From Xiao Muyang's tone, she could hear many emotions, including anger, guilt, and powerlessness.
If Xiao Muyang had not gone out today and said those inappropriate words, maybe he would have been appreciated by the king and trusted by the prince, but he would not be able to look directly into his heart, and he would not be able to get along with Mu Feng calmly in the future.
He risked his own life, but he gave up something for his own benefit.
Maybe Mu Feng wouldn't blame him, but he couldn't pass the test in his heart.
At this moment, Xue Wan'er vaguely understood what the teacher had said before. Her junior brother was different from ordinary people. Not only did he have the talent of a demon, but he also had a fiery innocent heart. For the pursuit of his heart, he could risk his own life, even if he faced an enemy far bigger than him.
Be strong in yourself.
How terrifying would it be for such a proud man to grow up?
She couldn't imagine it.
"Senior Sister is wrong. No matter what decision you make in the future, Senior Sister will support you!" Xue Waner looked at Xiao Muyang seriously.
"Senior sister..." Xiao Muyang looked stunned, seemingly unable to react.
Seeing Xiao Muyang staring at her, Xue Waner couldn't help but joked: "Why, is there something on Senior Sister's face?"
"No, I just found that senior sister is more beautiful than before!" Xiao Muyang praised, with a bright smile on his face. At this moment, he felt the trust and warmth that he had not had for a long time!
