"Huh-" Gao Ran let out a long breath, calmed down a little, sorted out his thoughts, and then began to narrate in an orderly manner: "I think, you should know that if it goes well, in seven years, the third prince Yun Zhen will be crowned the crown prince, and on the third day after that, a banquet will be held to select the crown princess." Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

"And once he is officially canonized as the crown prince, then according to their Yun clan's ancestral system, he will begin to take over all the rights of the old emperor. And, normally, after a year after that, the old emperor would abdicate and be officially succeeded by the crown prince as the new emperor.

"Therefore, when Yun Zhen began to take over the political situation, until he completely controlled the political situation and was able to successfully ascend the throne as the emperor, the period or so was precisely the period when the old and new regimes alternated and the political situation was the most unstable, but it was also the best period for 'people with hearts' to take advantage of the situation!

"And you should know by now that the reason why I have had those arrangements and layouts in the past two years is not only to avoid that I may be selected as the crown princess by Yun Zhen in the future, but also to avoid becoming a victim of the Gao and Fu families competing for the world with the Yun royal family in the future.

"In addition, I don't want to turn against An Yujie because of Yun Zhen's relationship.

"Besides, you should also know that the marriage contract between me and Fu Wenxuan is different from the marriage contract between me and Yun Jie, Dong Tianyi, and Gao Xi! That is the only one of all the marriage contracts I have on my body that was made in complete disregard of my personal wishes!

"And in fact, Fu Wenxuan and I don't want this marriage to come true in the end! What's more, I also promised him, as long as the time is ripe, I will definitely ruin this marriage! At least, I can guarantee and must guarantee that I will not marry him!

"This is not only for the sake of his happiness, but also for the sake of my own future! I don't want to fall into the hands of Fu Tong and become a pawn in the hands of her and the Fu family behind her after finally getting rid of Yun Zhen and the Gao family!

"And you, as the master of the Heavenly Pavilion, as the leader of the most powerful organization in this type of organization, who is known for 'assassination' and 'trading intelligence', and is currently the most powerful organization in this category, you will not be able to stay out of this battle for power!

"However, even if you are willing, I don't think most of the other people in the Heavenly Pavilion will be willing, right?!

"So, if you don't want to be involved in this war, but you still hold the power of the Heavenly Pavilion, then you are destined to usher in a civil war for power within the Heavenly Pavilion!"

Speaking of this, Gao Ran touched his chin again, but looked at Qiu Yueze's eyes with a little provocation, "Hmm...... If I'm not mistaken, your control over the current Heavenly Pavilion should be a little worse than before, right? The continued growth of the Heavenly Pavilion and the essential foundation on which it depends no longer seem to be something that can be easily changed by your personal wishes, right?

"If I'm not mistaken, the 'Seven' I forcibly left behind this time should be the leader of one of the major forces, right?! And my request to keep him forcibly just gives you an excuse to temporarily suppress him in a righteous and open way, right? Otherwise, you wouldn't have agreed so happily in the first place!"

"Hahahaha...... Mo Ruoran'er, who knows me!" After listening to Gao Ran's long remarks in front of him and her unceremonious speculation about his real situation that followed, Qiu Yueze laughed instead of being angry! Moreover, he smiled very calmly and relaxedly, as if he had finally been able to remove the guards he had not taken off for too long.

It was only at this time that Qiu Yueze discovered that he was not the only one who "very" understood Gao Ran's true situation;

What's more, she could guess that he was indeed hesitant to stay at the moment! In fact, although he had not yet decided whether to stay, he did not show any signs, allowing others to speculate that he might have the intention of retreating. - But she guessed!

"Alright, I know you know I know you're so happy! But now is not the time for you to be happy!"

Looking at Gao Ran's serious face, Qiu Yueze also had a rare sense of restraint and responded cooperatively: "Okay." If you hadn't, you wouldn't have mentioned it to me!"

"I can't hide it from you!

"Okay, then I'll just say it! Regarding this matter, I think I'm afraid we have to consider both you personally and the Heavenly Pavilion organization......

"What about you, I don't know what it used to be, and I'm not interested in knowing too much. But at least I can be sure that you've started to change since you met me, and I think the reason why you want to change, and you're willing to try to change, is not because of me, but because I've inspired you to really start making a change in action.

"So, I think, whether you admit it or not, your actions have said the truest thing in your heart -- you want to change! And the ultimate purpose of your desire to change is not to get 'happiness', but to avoid suffering!"

"Avoid pain?"

"Well, I think that with all the pain you have experienced in the past, 'happiness' for you, even if it exists, it will only seem to you to be a 'sarcasm'! a satire of all the pain and humiliation you have experienced in the past! If it does come to you, it will only make you remember more deeply the hatred that you want to forget the most. Isn't it?"

"Heh!" Qiu Yueze did not give a clear answer, only sneered. But this time, Gao Ran clearly felt that the aura around him suddenly became cold.

In this way, it is not difficult for Gao Ran to realize that her guess just now is estimated to be eight / nine is not far from ten!

So, although she noticed that Qiu Yueze was obviously a little unhappy, she still had the courage to continue: "So, in my opinion, if you really want to change, it is definitely not for the sake of 'happiness'. You just want to avoid the pain!

"As far as it is for you, as long as it makes you forget hatred, and saves you from continuing to endure the torment of hatred, it is already a joy and a happiness for you in a sense—though you may not want to admit it. But that's just the way it is. ”

Speaking of which, Gao Ran could pause. When she observed, although Qiu Yueze's face was still condensed, he had already restrained the cold aura he had just exuded. Then she knew that he had accepted the ideas she had just said, and had admitted it—that he did not want to admit in his heart that it was a kind of "happiness" for him.

After getting the confirmation, when Gao Ran continued, he became more confident.

"Since your true desire is to avoid suffering, then, if the future development of the Heavenly Pavilion is bound to run counter to your true wishes, then you will have to make a choice that you will never turn back on! Either you will leave the Heavenly Pavilion for your own sake, or you will continue to have the Heavenly Pavilion, but you must abandon your true heart from now on, continue to endure the torture of the hatred in your heart, and continue to bear more new hatreds in your future life......

"As for the Heavenly Pavilion, in fact, its future direction is already obvious! Although you have deliberately suppressed the development of its dark path business in the past two years, no matter how good the business on the surface is, it still cannot truly replace the value of the dark path business to the Heavenly Pavilion!

"You can't deny that even the business on the surface does have a lot of commendability, but the reason why it has been able to develop to such a scale almost unhindered in the past few years is definitely inseparable from the true essence of Tiange!

"However, such a powerful dark force is not only the fundamental guarantee that Tiange can develop all the legitimate businesses under its name to a considerable scale and continue to grow, but at the same time, it is also the biggest obstacle that prevents Tiange from becoming a true 'good businessman'!

"To put it mildly, Tiange, since it developed its own power through the underworld business, its essence has been doomed! Those legitimate businesses that yours only began to develop later, no matter how well they develop, can only be regarded as its side business! Even if their monetary gains in recent years may be much more than the profits of your underworld business, once a war breaks out, then Tiange's underworld business will definitely become a 'hot commodity'! At that time, even if you want to stay out of the matter, those 'employers' will not agree! What's more, there has already begun to be a clear split within your Heavenly Pavilion!

"However, no matter how many factions it is divided into, anyone who wants to take over the Heavenly Pavilion will know that only by retaining and strengthening the dark forces of the Heavenly Pavilion can the 'Heavenly Pavilion' survive forever!

"So, if you want to truly change the nature of the Heavenly Pavilion, it is absolutely impossible!-Even though you were the one who created it in the first place, now, in the face of the Heavenly Pavilion that already has its own 'vitality', you can only do nothing!

"So, in the face of the Heavenly Pavilion, you only have two choices. Either stay, and then resist all the 'internal and external troubles' for it, and 'live and die together' with it, or, leave as soon as possible, and hand over such a doomed and irreversible Tiange to a more suitable successor for it, and from then on, whether Tiange is glory or disgrace is no longer relevant to you!

"Of course, if you choose to leave, I'm afraid you will have to choose to live in seclusion. You're so 'famous', and there are naturally many people who know you, and if you want to spend the rest of your life in peace, it's best to avoid them - especially if you lose the Heavenly Pavilion's protection for you. ”
