Meet the heir

I came face-to-face with my elder brother. I and he never had a great connection as he died a few months from now in an assassination attempt and he was not my brother by blood, but rather a maid, he was the result of a fight and a drunk night. He was given the same privilege as us, and her mother was paid a hefty amount of sum, she had a choice to either stay or go, she chose to abandon him and start a new life.

He was named Bhuj, he was the maid's son and hence not capable of becoming an heir unless all parties agree and he has the support of at least three other noble houses and only one if all the members of the family in question agree to the person being the heir.

In my last life, even though he had the support of the fam ily, he didn't have the support of any other noble house.
