Shao Liulang, who had endured imprisonment and punishment at Shao Yunduan's hands, quickly forgot his pain. Flattered and fawned over by the Tian Family, his arrogance only grew.
He noted that despite Shao Yunduan's extended time in the capital, there had been no retribution against him. Shao Yunduan had even preserved the Tian Family's wealth and title, indicating he had no intention of causing trouble for Shao Liulang.
Shao Liulang didn't believe Shao Yunduan's goodwill was genuine, but he was determined to take advantage of their familial bond. After all, as Shao Yunduan's cousin, he expected to benefit from the new emperor's favor. He felt he deserved a position of power or influence, such as a Prince or Minister, given Shao Yunduan's elevated status.
