The story of a bullied daughter's rise to power

"So sure?" Tantai Yunyi didn't expect Situ Yaorao to say that so confidently. He was a little surprised for a moment.

Upon hearing this, Situ Yaorao sneered, "Ha! With the Ninth Prince's intelligence, I'm afraid he wouldn't do such a thing. So, it must be the Third Prince. Only he would take advantage of the current situation to cause further unrest in Luo City. He doesn't need to do anything else. As long as he restricts my movements and keeps Tan Tai Wu Yue in Luo City for a few more days, the position of Crown Prince will probably be replaced."

Situ Yaorao's eyes turned cold when she said this. She didn't care who Tan Tai Wu Yue was. Even if he was a beggar, she would still like him. But... that didn't mean he didn't care.

She always helps to protect what he cares about.

"How clever! He certainly did it. Interestingly, he did it without telling the Ninth Prince. Luo City is now divided into several factions. The first is the goddess of unknown origin, and the son of God of unknown origin. The goddess always appears in public, while the son of God is more mysterious, as if he doesn't want to be seen. These two people control the hearts of most of the people in Luo City. The people regard these two people as saviors and are willing to do anything for them. They are also the culprits that have led Luo City to its current state and are the root cause of the chaos in the south. The second faction is Feng Ziqi and his companions from Mingyue Country. They were lured here by the goddess. Their goal is you. Of course, there may also be those who want to take advantage of the situation and make Luo City even more chaotic.

The third faction is us. We are here to retrieve the Crown Prince. As long as he returns to normal and Xue Ming solves the source of the plague, we will have won. The people of Luocheng and the south can finally settle down. At that time, everyone will return to their own place. And there are still three factions: Tan Tai Wushang and Lao Jiu. As expected, these two came here on Lao Liu's orders, and Lao Jiu came because Lao Liu didn't trust Tan Tai Wushang, so he sent Lao Jiu to monitor him. There's no tacit understanding between these two, and each has their own reasons for coming here. However, Luocheng has been completely disrupted by us.

Look at the people in this city. A few days ago, although life seemed utterly bleak, there was at least a glimmer of hope. But now, even though the Son of God and the Goddess are saving them, many have given up on living. Some have even begun rioting. "People always go mad before they die." Tantai Yunyi looked at these people, a trace of pity in his eyes.

He rarely showed mercy to anyone, but he couldn't help but feel pity for the people of Luocheng. These people shouldn't have been sacrificed, but unfortunately, they were born at the wrong time. The struggle between the powerful had caused Luocheng to be in such a mess. It had also caused such a mess in the Jiangnan area.

"If one day this royal family and this throne no longer exist, perhaps there will be no more competition." Tan Tai Yun Yi looked at these people and suddenly said.

Situ Yaorao was surprised when she heard this.

She came from the 21st century and was used to this kind of situation. But she had never expected that Tan Tai Yun Yi would come up with such an advanced idea.

"Maybe it would be better if there was no imperial power. But doing so requires great courage." Situ Yaorao said.

"I know, that's why I haven't fought for the throne, because I don't have the courage to reform, but I also don't want to be mediocre after taking the throne. If I can't do it, I won't get involved." Tan Tai Yun Yi said.

Upon hearing this, Situ Yaorao looked at him deeply.

Tan Tai Yun Yi is truly a man of talent. Could he become emperor? Of course he could. If he were to fight for the throne, his chances of becoming emperor would be even higher. After all, he's a much better person than Tan Tai Wu Yue. Tan Tai Wu Yue might be a bit willful, but Tan Tai Yun Yi's world is free of willfulness. He's calm, so calm that it frightens people. He's smart, so smart that it makes people want to obey him. Yet, even this man, unable to live up to his ideal, gave up on fighting for the throne.

Situ Yaorao suddenly admired him a little.

"You know what? I once thought about what the future would be like if I could become the emperor one day. But... I couldn't imagine it. Or perhaps I should say that after I became the emperor, Lanlin would remain the same as it is now, with no major changes. So, I gave up. But Tan Tai Wu Yue showed me a different future. I firmly believed that if Tan Tai Wu Yue became the emperor, Lanlin would definitely be better. It is precisely because of this that I would go to help Tan Tai Wu Yue at all costs."

Tantai Yunyi said this, seeming to be a little nostalgic.

"You're really weird." Situ Yaorao looked at the man and said sincerely. Hearing this, the man looked at Situ Yaorao suspiciously, a little confused about what he meant.

"I've met many people who only do things beyond their capabilities. I've never met anyone like you who is obviously capable but devalues ​​yourself." Situ Yaorao said.

"I'm not being disparaging, but I know it all too well. I'm all too aware of my own abilities." Tantai Yunyi said with a wry smile. Situ Yaorao blinked upon hearing this and said, "We're here."

Situ Yaorao's words startled Tan Tai Yun Yi. He had been chatting with Situ Yaorao all the way and had forgotten the time. Looking at the door in front of him, Tan Tai Yun Yi pushed it open and walked in with Situ Yaorao.

"You didn't even send anyone to guard it?" Situ Yaorao thought it was unrealistic. Tantai Yunyi smiled upon hearing this, "Guard? No need. I've already issued an order. If anyone other than me comes in, they will be killed without mercy. Unless I brought them here."

Tan Tai Yun Yi's words made Situ Yaorao's heart skip a beat. Doesn't this mean that Xue Ming is imprisoned here as well?

"Doctor Xue Ming will definitely be very angry." Situ Yaorao said firmly.

Tan Tai Yun Yi nodded without comment: "He is simply like crazy, even drawing his sword against me." Tan Tai Yun Yi said calmly, as if he was not the one who angered others.

Situ Yaorao's mouth twitched when she heard this: "Does he disgust you so much?"

"I don't hate Xue Ming, but I have to do this. Xue Ming is very weird. If you don't handle him well, you might be doomed by him. I don't want to gamble with you." Tan Tai Yun Yi looked helpless.

"Forget it, let's go in first." Situ Yaorao said with a helpless smile.

"That's fine." Tantai Yunyi nodded and took her to Xue Ming. Situ Yaorao walked into the room alone. Xue Ming looked very quiet today.

He leaned against the bed and saw Situ Yaorao coming in. He said calmly, "Today will probably be more painful than yesterday. Do you think you can bear it?"

"Since I've already made up my mind, I won't back down. No need to ask any more questions." Situ Yaorao said, and was about to take off her clothes. But Xue Ming stopped her: "Wait."

"kindness?"

"Are you afraid of me?" Xue Ming looked at Situ Yaorao and suddenly asked. Then Situ Yaorao was completely stunned. A doctor actually asked the patient if he was afraid of him?

Is he crazy?

Situ Yaorao looked at him deeply and said, "Don't be afraid. You cured me, and I can't thank you enough."

"Thank you?" Xue Ming felt the words were filled with mockery. In this world, so many people were simply afraid of him. No matter who he saved, no matter how much he sacrificed, they would only call him a lunatic. This was Xue Ming's fate.

He didn't want to cry, nor did he want to laugh. He even gradually stopped wanting to give those patients a glance. But... gradually, he also forgot why he treated those people.

It was like a vicious cycle: he tortured the patients and saved them, while they scolded him and flattered him.

Until today, he had never heard words of thanks.
