Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower



Nan Hua walked to her twin brother and cousin who were whispering with each other.

"He's drunk with just a few glasses?" Nan Luo's tone was filled with disbelief.

"He should have inherited father's weak alcohol tolera…"

Smack!

General Feng looked at his second son with black face. He purposely came here to see his son getting married and not to have his second son blabbered his dark history. Who in the world told Feng Ao Kuai that he couldn't drink?

He will beat up that person!

"Don't spout nonsense."

Feng Ao Kuai laughed lightly but said nothing else. He raised his head and saw Nan Hua coming closer. "The banquet is over. Grandpa is still busy drinking over there. Do you want to stop him?"

With Old Master Nan's current age and his bad drinking habit when he was meeting his old friend, he was usually not allowed to drink a lot. His aged body wouldn't be able to withstand the burden if he were to drink too much.

Nan Hua glanced to the side and saw Old Master Nan was laughing happily. Beside him, Hou Liang was busy replacing the wine with water with a poker face. It seemed that he was already used to do this.

The adjutant and manservants of these people truly have to work hard.

"It's fine." Nan Hua looked at Feng Ao Kuai again. "How's the situation at the border?"

"There's nothing much to say. However, I'm thinking that there might be some people who want to make a move when they know that some people are missing." Feng Ao Kuai took a glance at Nan Luo but didn't make his words clearer.

Nan Luo pursed his lips. "I know."

His voice was low and reflected irritation. However, there was also trace of ruthlessness and determination deep within.

"Will you stay behind?"

"I want to see the play here. Of course, I have no intention to watch my older brother all the time." Feng Ao Kuai felt somewhat disgusted and uncomfortable when he saw his older brother got close to his future wife.

His father and mother also had no sense of measure in front of him and often showed off their love. He would rather stay away from them than watching those things and disgust himself.

It was called dog food.

But Feng Ao Kuai didn't really know the name and only the annoyed feeling.

"Oh, I know."

Nan Luo shrugged. "I will just go back and settle there. I want to make sure that I didn't make a mistake."

"Mhm." Feng Ao Kuai nodded. "I thought you will never realize it."

"Haha." Nan Luo smiled bitterly and said nothing. He would have never thought that way if not for Nan Hua suddenly reminded him. Perhaps, outsiders could see things clearly because they were not involved.

As the person within the group, he couldn't help but be biased and ended up missing the obvious clues.

It was really embarrassing.

"I'm going to rest now."

"Me too."

Nan Hua shook her head and watched her twin brother and cousin left. She stayed in the hall until her grandfather was alone without any other guest. It was already late and these people would surely go back home now.

"Grandpa," Nan Hua called.

"Ah, you're here, little lass." Old Master Nan smiled brightly. He reached out his hand and rubbed Nan Hua's hair tenderly. No matter what the occasion was, he always liked to rub his granddaughter's head. "Are you doing well?"

"Mhm." Nan Hua nodded.

"What do you plan to do now? I heard you left Nan Luo's army again." Old Master Nan looked at his granddaughter helplessly. As time passed, he felt more and more confused about what Nan Hua was actually planning to do.

"I'm going to the north." Nan Hua tilted her head. "There are some business I have there."

"Fan Yi?" Old Master Nan probed.

Nan Hua shook her head. "Lin Family."

Lin Family, the renowned medicinal family in Zhang Xu Kingdom and also one of the two big families who had special inheritance in Zhang Xu Kingdom. By now, their inheritance was the only complete one because the other one was already completely destroyed and no one knew how to do it perfectly anymore.

With the passage of time, it would be completely forgotten, leaving only Lin Family.

"Lin Family, huh? I thought that they have been pressured by the previous Emperor quite badly and make some bad decision." Old Master Nan heard some news about Lin Family.

Because of their declining members, the previous emperor of Zhang Xu Kingdom disliked them and felt that they were useless. This made them somewhat anxious to prove their worth and even tried some bad decision that only made the situation worse.

If not for Prime Minister Lei interjecting in the middle, Lin Family might need to be disbanded and have their secret revealed. Thanks to Prime Minister Lei, they could still exist and many of their members were working under him.

Old Master Nan didn't know the details.

After all, it was an affair within Zhang Xu Kingdom and not something that was spread outside intentionally. It took him some effort to be able to know about this.

But Prime Minister Lei hadn't used them that much.

Thus, Old Master Nan had no idea what he was planning to do with them.

"Do you hear something?"

"Mhm." It was more like, she had read about it before. However, Nan Hua was not entirely sure about it before and didn't really want to go to Lin Family. But when her ability manifested, she began to see some of the bits and pieces of the events.

It confirmed her thoughts.

If she didn't stop the Lin Family from completing Prime Minister Lei's request, there will be a big disaster in the future that was very detrimental for Fei Yang Kingdom and many other people.

She's not a saint.

But she didn't want to see so many civilians died because of this war.
