"Actually, there's nothing to say, it's just that."
Tantai Yao said lightly: "My talent is not outstanding, and my strength is not convincing enough. My mother wants to train me to be the heir, so naturally there are objections in the family. I have five direct cousins, including Tantai Jue.
, talent, strength, and character are all better than mine."
"So in the final analysis, it was your mother's decision that touched the interests of other people and brought you this fatal disaster?"
Yun Luo raised his eyebrows and asked.
Tantai Yao nodded, "Other than this reason, I really can't think of any other reason why Tantai Jue would kill me."
"If he is ambitious and you block his way, it is understandable that he wants to get rid of you as a stumbling block."
Yun Luo said sharply, but then he was confused, "But if this is the case, couldn't you and your mother see it?"
Tantai Jue himself is also a legitimate son, so he is naturally qualified to compete for the position of heir.
Tantai Yao may not be able to see his wolfish ambition, but Mrs. Tantai cannot ignore it.
Doesn’t she know that it’s dangerous to put an ambitious person next to her daughter? Why didn’t she separate them in time and instead allowed Tantai Jue to be a “good brother and sister” with her daughter for so many years?
"I don't know what my mother is thinking, but I really didn't notice it before. He disguised himself so well. If he hadn't been exposed this time, I wouldn't have believed that he was plotting against me."
Tantai Yao bit her lip and looked down with a complicated expression.
Yun Luo also looked down, with a gloomy face that could not hide the resentment of Tantai Jue...
I can’t tell, he was so good at acting before? He deceived others?
Uh...it's also possible that Tantai Yao was too naive before and never doubted him.
After all, they are cousins who grew up together.
Who would suspect that their relatives want to harm them for no reason?
However, Mrs. Tantai should not...
This lady is famous for being shrewd and ruthless, with first-rate methods, and her history in power can be called the Kyushu version of Wu Zetian. She can’t even see the ambitions of a junior, right?
Could it be...
Yun Luo narrowed his eyes slightly, and a thought flashed through his mind.
She looked at Tantai Yao, with a hint of sympathy in her eyes.
Tantai Yao did not notice the look in her eyes: "Tantai is not the eldest son. He is the second son born to my eldest uncle. His talent and strength are not as good as those of my eldest cousin. Therefore, the family has always tacitly accepted
My eldest cousin is the most suitable successor. Even if you want to hate me for blocking the way, it should be my eldest cousin, not him..."
"He used to be really good to me and helped me in everything. Although he was just a cousin next door, he was like my real brother emotionally. I never thought... that he would regard me as a stumbling block and only wanted to
You want me to die."
Tantai Yao's eyes could not hide the disappointment and sadness.
Yun Luo didn't say anything either.
She recalled in her mind the things she had learned about the four major families before.
The four major families were originally the Tantai family, the Nangong family, the Beichen family, and... the Ji family.
That's right, it's the Ji family where Queen Ji Xiuling and Left Prime Minister Ji Yongfeng belong.
However, the Ji family has faded out of the Four Kingdoms hundreds of years ago, leaving only an inconspicuous distant branch still in Cangyun Kingdom, but it has also disappeared.
Left Prime Minister Ji Yongfeng is a member of this branch.
