Of course, there was a purpose for Xu Yun to warn Tao Yinan today. In the face of a strong opponent whom he knew nothing about, Xu Yun would not be so stupid to act rashly.
Moreover, his current opponent was not only the Tao Family, but also the other five great families. If this matter could incite internal strife within the six great families, then Xu Yun wouldn't need to waste too much energy and time on this matter.
The best way to deal with the enemy within the enemy's group was probably to see how Tao Yinan wanted to deal with this matter.
If Tao Yinan could think clearly about the stakes and was a smart person, she would not throw herself into the limelight.
Even if the matter about the Jiang Family was exposed, Zuo Lengyue had already been alerted.
This was probably something that no one in the six families had thought of, and it could also fully test whether the relationship between the six families was real or fake.
After Xu Yun left, Tao Yinan kept asking herself over and over again. Why did she want to exterminate the Jiang Family so ruthlessly?
Of course, it was to maximize the benefits of the Tao Family. If it were not for the benefits of the Tao Family, she would be crazy to come all the way to Hua Xia to deal with this tricky matter.
This was not only a matter of taking risks, but also a matter of losing more than gain. Not only could she not bring benefits to the Tao Family, but she would also get into trouble. Then it would really be a meaningless trip.
Tao Yinan was very clear that the person who came just now was advising her to tuck her tail between her legs and get out of Hua Xia.
If she were to accept this advice, it would be a perfect thing for all of them.
But how could Tao Yinan explain it to her family?
She had no chance to explain at all, because the people in her family would not believe her. No matter what, Zuo Lengyue had not stood out to express her attitude publicly.
Therefore, no one would ask to give up the action of exterminating the Jiang Family because of this.
However, the current situation was just as Xu Yun had said. All the spearheads were focused on her.
The Tao Family was the instigator of this matter, and once she offended Zuo Lengyue, the Tao Family was very likely to push her out.
In the eyes of many people, the life of a big clan was so beautiful, but no one knew what the internal struggles of a big clan were like.
Even brothers and sisters in an ordinary family would fight over the inheritance left behind by their parents.
What about the big clans? The things that they would be fighting over would not be small.
As long as they fought for a little bit more, they would be rich enough to rival a country. Who could resist such a temptation?
Obviously, no one could resist this temptation. Tao Yinan was like this, and so were her brothers and sisters.
Tao Yinan had always been outstanding in the Tao family since she was young. Unfortunately, she was a girl, so her elder brother and two younger brothers didn't treat her well.
The only reason was that she was too outstanding and could handle some things better than them.
This meant that the family valued her highly. Tao Yinan's position in the Tao Family was obviously higher than her elder sister and younger sister. Among the six members of the Tao Family, Tao Yinan was the most capable.
Even the eldest son of the Tao Family, who was also Tao Yinan's elder brother, Tao Zhu, was inferior to her in all aspects.
Even though Tao Zhu didn't express some things, everyone knew the resentment in Tao Zhu's heart.
This was because Tao Zhu was already very outstanding in all aspects, and his outstanding personal ability had also established his own capital in front of the previous generation.
If it wasn't for Tao Yinan, he would probably be more outstanding in the eyes of his father's generation. In that case, he would be able to obtain more authority.
However, Tao Yinan's excellence caused him to miss out on more than half of the delicious soup. It was impossible to say that Tao Zhu wasn't sick of Tao Yinan.
It was precisely because Tao Zhu was sick of Tao Yinan that he planned this matter and let Tao Yinan do what she was doing now. Even if it was successful and Tao Yinan received praise from her father's generation, she still wouldn't be able to escape the wrath of the empress.
Tao Zhu was very clear that once the empress and the Tao Family fell out, his father would rather sacrifice Tao Yinan than go against the empress.
Everyone was well aware of how high the empress's prestige was. When the time came, it was absolutely impossible for the other five great clans to stand by the Tao Family's side. They would most likely face it with the mentality of watching a show.
If the empress abolished the Tao Family, the other five great clans would be the ultimate beneficiaries. Who would go against the interests of the other five great clans?
Obviously, absolutely no one would go against the interests of the other five great clans.
When the time came, Tao Yinan would inevitably become the sacrificial lamb of the Tao Family for the sake of the overall situation.
This was a huge game of chess that Tao Zhu had set up. Smart people would definitely understand the meaning behind all this.
Tao Yinan wasn't a fool and naturally saw through it. Unfortunately, seeing through it didn't mean that she could reject it.
If she rejected the family's appointment, her status in the family would definitely plummet.
Even if she had to brace herself, Tao Yinan had to shoulder this matter. Not only did she have to shoulder it, but she also had to do it perfectly. As long as this matter was done beautifully, her status in the entire family would rise to a new level. What did this mean? It meant that even Tao Zhu wouldn't be able to raise his head in front of her.
Tao Yinan had really thought through this matter carefully. The reason why she was so cautious and careful was because she wanted to avoid everyone's attention and handle this matter quietly.
As long as the empress couldn't produce concrete evidence to prove that the Tao Family did it, she didn't have to worry about being used as a sacrificial lamb by the Tao Family.
The difficulty of this matter was obviously huge, but Tao Yinan had to accept this challenge. If she won, she would win everything. If she lost, she would lose everything!
To Tao Yinan, this was definitely a huge gamble.
Before Xu Yun came, she still had a chance of winning. She was still certain that what she did was flawless and no one would know.
However, after Xu Yun came and the two of them exchanged a few simple words, Tao Yinan knew that she had no trump cards left. In this huge gamble, all the trump cards in her hands had been seen by the other party.
What chance did she have of winning?
Once all her cards were revealed, Tao Yinan would most likely lose miserably. It wasn't that she didn't dare to lose, but that she really couldn't afford to lose this huge gamble.
Faced with such a desperate situation, Tao Yinan wouldn't foolishly walk into the dark. She wasn't a fool, and she knew very well that she had to save herself now.
When a person was faced with a desperate situation, no one would extend a helping hand. In order to get out of this situation, other than saving herself, Tao Yinan had no other way.
At this moment, she wasn't even in the mood to taste the red wine.
Faced with the 1787 Chateau Lafite that she had always dreamed of, Tao Yinan actually took it directly, put the wine bottle to her mouth, and raised her head without hesitation.
The remaining half of the bottle of red wine was poured down Tao Yinan's throat without any careful tasting or smelling.
Compared to Xu Yun's drinking method just now, this was probably a real reckless waste of God's gift.
Tao Yinan finished half of the bottle of red wine, but her heart still couldn't calm down.
What should she do? Tao Yinan, who was in a dilemma, didn't know what to do at this moment.
On this big chessboard, whoever could save themselves would be able to protect everything! The damn family infighting. The most disgusting thing for Tao Yinan was happening in front of her again, but what could she do?
What else could she do except to meet and face these challenges one after another?
Who told her to be born in the Tao Family? In such a big family, how could there be no infighting? How could there be no disputes?
If she had the chance to choose in her next life, Tao Yinan would definitely choose to reincarnate in an ordinary family without hesitation. She really had enough of this kind of dispute, really.
