Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower

2136  Contemplation

Emperor Yang Zhou really wanted to scold Long Qian Xing.

This is his palace and not Long Qian Xing's residence. Did he have to show off his love so openly to others?

At this moment, Emperor Yang Zhou felt that it would be a good idea to kick Long Qian Xing out of his palace.

He even felt a bit of regret from helping Long Qian Xing and Nan Hua.

Emperor Yang Zhou sighed and decided not to disturb them.

'Asking her to become a general again is definitely impossible.' Emperor Yang Zhou thought in his mind.

Even if not everyone knew about Nan Hua's real identity as General Jun, there were still some people who knew about this. Those who sided with the Nan Family from the very beginning were fine, but those who have bad relationship with the Nan Family wouldn't be too pleased. Moreover, there were also those who were neutral but didn't want to see any side having too much power in their hands. So Emperor Yang Zhou gave up this idea.

He did need more people on the frontline but Fei Yang Kingdom didn't only have one person. There were also others. At times like this, Emperor Yang Zhou really wanted to call Old Master Nan to the palace just for a talk. Old Master Nan had much broader vision compared to him, especially since he came from his grandfather era and had seen what his grandfather did during the early expansion of Fei Yang Kingdom. In the past, Fei Yang Kingdom was definitely not as big as it is right now.

Even before the conquest to conquer Wei Da Kingdom, the first kingdom to be conquered by Fei Yang Kingdom, Fei Yang Kingdom's size was actually the second or third biggest after Shi Long Kingdom and Zhang Xu Kingdom. And a few decades ago, Fei Yang Kingdom was actually very small.

It was through countless battle and expansion through several decades that Fei Yang Kingdom could grow to this size now.

And it was not over yet. When Fan Yi Kingdom was conquered later, Emperor Yang Zhou knew that the size of the kingdom would be refreshed once more.

It would be the biggest without exception.

After all, the current size of Fei Yang Kingdom alone was already much bigger than how it used to be when Zhang Xu Kingdom ruled the land under a different kingdom's name. Old Master Nan had helped his grandfather to expand and the number of generals at that time was definitely not as many as it is right now.

So Emperor Yang Zhou was tempted to call Old Master Nan again.

But considering the old man's personality, it was estimated that Old Master Nan would complain from being called to the Imperial Palace again.

Emperor Yang Zhou glanced at the palace behind him and silently waved to a servant to come closer. Nan Hua and Long Qian Xing should return to the Nan Family Residence soon, so there should be no problem with him calling Old Master Nan over.

…

<Nan Family Residence, Old Master Nan's side>

Old Master Nan saw Nan Hua returned and nodded his head. Glancing at Long Qian Xing not far from Nan Hua who left, he snorted.

"I thought that you go to Her Majesty's banquet?"

"Yes, I meet with Brother Long afterwards," Nan Hua replied.

The banquet itself was not very interesting in Nan Hua's opinion and there were still som people who were dissatisfied with her return to Fei Yang Kingdom's Capital City.

Unfortunately, Nan Hua knew that she couldn't please everyone.

She wanted to return and there were things that she has to do.

They have no right to stop her. "Did Her Majesty say anything?" Old Master Nan asked. From what he knew, the Xiao Family was usually very sensible and didn't dare to poke where they were not allowed to. They were also very careful in their conduct, which was one of the few rare people who usually stayed neutral in the politic. Though, Old Master Nan knew that this neutrality was somewhat ambiguous. "No." Nan Hua shook her head.

Empress Xiao knew her position very well and had no intention to make difficult situation for Nan Hua. It was other families who were displeased with Nan Hua's presence and wanted to make things difficult for her. Though, in Nan Hua's opinion, their action was nothing more than a joke. "So others?" Old Master Nan's eyes narrowed. "It seems that I need to exercise my muscles…."

"Grandpa, I don't need you to make a move," Nan Hua said helplessly. Nôv(el)B\\jnn

"Nonsense, my granddaughter is being questioned, why can't I step forward?" Old Master Nan retorted.

Now that he was older, what he cared the most was his family members.

Someone dared to make trouble for Nan Hua, so Old Master Nan wanted to vent his anger and dissatisfaction towards them.

Nan Hua looked at Old Master Nan and said, "They're not really important, Grandfather. You're not allowed to use your martial arts even if you can take a walk and do basic exercise to maintain your health."

When Old Master Nan heard Nan Hua's words, he sighed deeply and patted Nan Hua's hand.

"Your grandpa is fine." Old Master Nan shrugged. He knew his body well and it was not that bad. "I can take care of this." Nan Hua sighed and simply decided to send some of her people to take action. Anyway, Nan Hua also has her people lurking in Fei Yang Kingdom's Capital City.

Giving them order would be easy.

Old Master Nan heard this and after he thought for a moment, he nodded unwillingly. He thought that he could do something for his granddaughter, but it seemed that he was unneeded.

This made Old Master Nan sighed.

Nan Hua grew up too fast!

As the grandfather, he didn't have many chances to perform for Nan Hua anymore.
