Talisman Reincarnation - All My Clones Are Dao Ancestors-Chapter 79: Discussing the future Paths

The second stage ended and the final stage was about to be announced by the prince.

When the prince heard Mu Yan’s argument, he smiled. Sure, his own position was reduced to worker, but what made him smile was Mu Yan’s talk about his eldest brother.

That’s right, the crown prince was a position under the control of the emperor and empress. The position was fraught with danger and wasn’t stable at all. While his brother had all these worries, he himself could leisurely do some work and spend the rest of his time cultivating.

The difference in resources meant he would advance slower, but reaching greater heights was still possible!

"I hereby declare the end of the Questionnaire and the start of the Discussion."

As for the poor little guy left over? The prince didn’t care. Although it was rare, he had been in this position for over ten years and had seen this happen more than once. Eunuchs were extremely picky. It might seem like every eunuch picked whatever they could this time, but if they could, they’d all focus on the others.

Who knew whether they would stay with these?

If they turned out to have too little talent or ambition, the eunuch might just leave and take a new master.

Their loyalty... was first and foremost to the empire. As long as they helped the royal family, the emperor wouldn’t care whether they changed their adoptive child, no matter how cruel it sounded.

The next stage was rather simple: discuss the assignment with the mother. This was why they were present this time.

If both parties came to a conclusion, they would proceed with the adoption.

Ren Yu walked up to the two Royal Descendants and invited them to a table in the back.

At this point, Mu Yan was already sitting there, waiting for them.

The lady looked over to Lu Shang, then to Mu Yan. She made a decision and called her children to follow her.

Although Lu Shang came from a better background, it seemed this year the Immortal Diligence Eunuch Palace had produced quite a good seedling.

She walked to them and bowed slightly, "Greetings to the Junior Royal Eunuch Mu Yan," she said before turning to her children, "these two children are Ning Yuanyun and Ning Yuanhan, my little prince and princess."

"Greetings Royal Eunuch Mu Yan!" they greeted. While Lady Hua Lingyi used Mu Yan’s formal title, they didn’t dare.

"Hello little ones," Mu Yan smiled at them then turned to A’qi, "you take them outside for a bit."

"Can-" Yuanhan had just spoken when she saw her mother glare at her.

"Speak out your words little princess," Mu Yan said kindly.

His usual cold façade seemed to fall when looking at these two that would soon enter his lineage and care.

The two looked over to their mother, when they saw her face soften, Yuanhan dared to continue, "Can I stay here? I want to listen."

"No problem. After all, we are talking about the future of both of you, so it’s indeed better to have you here."

He thought these two might not understand it so he wanted to send them away instead of making them worry, but since they insisted, he didn’t care and allowed them to stay.

After this little talk, he turned serious to Lady Hua, "Tell me your requirements and I’ll see whether I agree with them."

Seeing that Mu Yan didn’t beat around the bush, Lingyi decided to do the same and replied, "I don’t want much, just that the children stay united and close. In addition, they shouldn’t pursue the inheritance of their father. Lastly, I want them to follow their own path and not... be forced into a path."

Mu Yan nodded, "That’s agreeable. I don’t intend to separate them. I have a special spirit which requires connecting with two. Their compatibility as siblings is the best, as long as they themselves don’t force a separation, I won’t do so.

As for the matter of inheritance, I have already talked with Lu Shang. We will give up the main inheritance. We might work together with him to help the second son get a part of the inheritance and earn some investment for the two on the side.

Their path... their path is already clear, which is why I chose them.

Yuanyun, I see that you have a deep understanding of literacy. The awakening will allow you to awaken your literary spirit, which will help you shape your literacy even better.

Yuanhan, your martial prowess are hidden and a coldness follows your thoughts, a cold calculated mind. You are very suited for the military and the Martial Path as far as I see. When you awaken your martial spirit, it will likely be of the ice element, an extremely strong dual offensive and defensive spirit, very suitable for war.

Lady Hua, I don’t think you meant any other path, right?"

"This..." Lingyi hesitated for a moment when she heard this.

"Mother!" Yuanhan called out, "I have told you already. I don’t wish to marry and become a concubine, not even a legitimate lady. Staying at home and hoping my husband would visit me, I can’t stand it!"

"Mhm," Mu Yan agreed, "a little girl with talent isn’t suited for this. No one with talent is. These things, don’t talk about them anymore.

Since you will enter my lineage, you will naturally not have to worry about it."

"If you ever marry," A’qi suddenly said, "it will naturally have to be a general or scholar of equal rank who can fight side by side with you. If he does anything wrong, just tell me and I will beat him up for you!"

"That’s right, your uncle A’qi will make sure to beat them up. And if you ever need any help regarding any matter, you can come to me, your uncle Ren Yu.

This matter is also extended to Yuanyun!

Don’t just look at Mu Yan, he will be your adoptive father and busy with many things. If he doesn’t have time to do something, just talk to your uncles!"

Suddenly, the atmosphere became lighter and everyone smiled.

Lady Hua nodded, "Then I agree with this arrangement."
