Just like now, everyone knows that there is something wrong with Xu Tianze's incense burner, but no matter whether they used their internal energy to test it or took the Baijie Pill before, they couldn't find out what the problem was.
"Your Highness, don't worry about that. I just don't know how prepared you are. You are so arrogant. I think you are fully prepared." The prince looked at Long Musi with a smile.
"Don't worry about it, my royal brother. I am still somewhat confident." Long Musi repeated the prince's words.
For a moment, there seemed to be a flash of murderous intent between the two of them.
Even Monkie, who sensed the atmosphere, couldn't help but tighten his grip on the sword in his hand, ready to take action if he found anything wrong.
Xu Tianze seemed to be unable to feel the atmosphere. He leaned lazily on the chair, his eyebrows flashed, and he scanned the other three people. Then he looked at Long Musi again: "Where is Xu An?"
"Hmph." Upon hearing this, the prince realized that he had been led into a ditch.
He just felt that something was wrong, but this was not just because Long Qingyi was not present. Before he could react to what was wrong, Long Musi came up to put pressure on him.
For a moment, he was so busy retorting that he forgot to think about what was wrong. Now, after Xu Tianze said that, he realized that it was not just Long Qingyi who was not there, but even Xu An, who was supposed to be the last to pick the peaches, was not there.
Only he and Long Musi were left here, like clowns, talking back and forth.
"He...he has left." Long Musi felt a little guilty and stammered to explain to Xu Tianze.
"It's strange what I said, my royal brother. I don't know whether you really left on your own or were forced to leave." The prince said sarcastically, emphasizing the word "leave".
Xu Tianze knew what the prince wanted to express. After all, Xu An was different from the prince and others because Xu An had no power of his own, and as long as it was not announced to the outside world, it could be treated as if there was no grandson of the emperor, Xu An.
In this case, as long as we are ruthless, we can directly get rid of Xu An in secret, and there will be one less competitor.
It is only logical to say so, but since Emperor Gan could have calculated that they would all gather in the Qianqing Palace, how could he not have calculated their thoughts? Xu An himself was a fake grandson of the emperor, so even if he was killed, it would not have any impact.
Just like him, the fake Prince Zhenguo, the fake prince, everything is fake, and naturally his death will not have any major impact on the things that have already been planned.
However, Xu Tianze just thought about these things in his mind. After all, that person had not appeared yet, so it was better for him to keep it in his heart.
Therefore, Xu Tianze just stared at Long Muse, waiting for Long Muse's explanation. Of course, he believed that Long Muse would not kill Xu An, but he still wanted to know where Xu An went in the end.
"Aze, believe me, I, Long Muse, absolutely cannot do it to the point of killing a young man who is ignorant of the world." Long Muse did not care about the prince's provocation, but just looked at Xu Tianze sincerely.
"Well, so he finally decided to back down?" Xu Tianze nodded, not doubting the truthfulness of Long Musi's words.
When Long Musi saw that Xu Tianze believed in him, the light in his eyes became even brighter, but when he thought of the scene of Xu An and himself saying goodbye, he felt a little complicated.
"Now that we are approaching the capital, it is also the moment to make the final decision. Are you withdrawing now?" Long Musi looked at Xu An in front of him with some confusion.
Although he was very happy with Xu An's final choice, it did not mean that he understood Xu An's approach, because the power that was visible to the naked eye and the final peak position were right in front of him.
All of them were paving the way for Xu An. In the end, Xu An didn't have to do anything but follow them into the palace. For the future of the country, all of them would voluntarily die in Shangjing City, and he, Xu An, would be the final winner.
Long Musi, who has been pursuing power all his life, does not understand Xu An's actions at all, let alone Xu An's choice.
"Amitabha, I am just a monk, not the emperor's grandson, so naturally I will not ascend to any supreme position." Xu An saluted indifferently to his nominal uncle.
"A monk? If you become a monk, we will all die in the palace, this country will become history, and the people of this country will only suffer more. Do you still want to be a monk?" Long Musi looked at Xu An with amusement.
He didn't believe that Xu An hadn't seen the chaos in Gan Kingdom in recent years. If they were all dead, Gan Kingdom would have been a chaotic war among various forces at the beginning, and when Cangjie Kingdom and Minglan Kingdom had time to spare, Gan Kingdom would have been directly occupied.
At that time, the people of Gan State were not in a good situation, not to mention corpses everywhere. The most fundamental reason for this was that Xu An gave up his throne and wanted to become a monk.
The so-called compassionate heart of a monk is not the choice to make in this way.
"Even if I go to the palace, what will happen? Will you really leave the palace immediately?" Xu An asked back, "The Long family has so many people, they don't need me, so it doesn't make any difference whether I go or not."
Long Musi was moved by Xu An's words, because he knew that what Xu An said was true. They would not be willing to die in the palace. From the moment they realized that they were princes, they had been fighting with each other, but now in the end they were told that everything was predetermined and they were just a stepping stone for others.
No one would be willing to accept this, so they made various arrangements when they were approaching the capital, hoping to fight for it at the last moment.
Seeing that Long Musi had nothing to say, Xu An prepared to leave, but when he turned around, Long Musi's words made him hesitate again.
"This king does hope to have one less competitor, so your departure is a good thing for this king. But have you thought about your uncle? Or are you prepared to disappoint him once again?"
Seeing Xu An stagnant, Long Musi crossed his arms over his chest with a look of disdain on his face. He knew that this brat had a soft spot, the kind that could be easily exploited.
If Long Muse talked about something else of righteousness, Xu An would not care at all. If the world collapsed, there would always be tall people to hold it up, so it would not be his turn.
So he could leave with peace of mind and become a monk on his own, but if this person was his younger uncle Xu Tianze, Xu An would have to hesitate.
Because he had disappointed his uncle time and time again, was he going to disappoint him again this time? Was he going to make his only relative in this world sad again?
Long Musi didn't say anything. He thought Xu An would compromise in the end, but he miscalculated in the end.
(Dear readers, it's like this: Moze might be slow to update for a few days. My main job is filming and editing, and my side job is writing, so my wrists are really taking it these past few days. I need a few days to rest. I only have 190,000 to reach a million, so I haven't saved any more drafts. I'll definitely learn from this lesson for the next book, so I can only update a little slower this time~(。?＿?。)? I'm sorry~)
