Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower

Thus, Wen Family was being let off by Emperor Yang Zhou.

Besides, Long Qian Xing's blood related sister was still in Wen Family. Some people even think that it was because of this relationship that Wen Family's small mistake only result in the man's demotion.

But even with demotion, his position had not changed much.

There were many others who were like Wen Family and only got some small punishment because of their misdeed but they were not dismissed from their position. They only had to be more careful because the cleaning up had caused a lot of people to lose their lives.

Thus Long Xu Nian's husband didn't think that there was anything wrong with what he had done. Aside from being a bit more careful, he was basically doing the exact same thing as what he had always done before.

As she walked inside, she could hear the sound of laughter coming from one of the area. She looked over and immediately saw her husband was fooling around with one of his concubines in broad daylight.

From the very moment he found out that Long Xu Nian was not treasured by Long Qian Xing, he basically never cared for her existences anymore. Besides, there were a lot of people who didn't seem to like Long Xu Nian.

Since he could obtain some benefit by not treating her well, he would not care about this so called wife of his.

The only thing left for Long Xu Nian was the position as the madam of Wen Family that hadn't been given up. After all, he didn't want to get a divorce with this woman for some reasons.

Long Xu Nian watched as the concubine held a smug expression towards her direction and then played with her husband again.

Her fingers clenched into a fist.

Everyone who dared to disrespect her and treated her badly would all pay the price. Long Xu Nian swore to the Heaven that she would never let them off!

She hated them all!

Slowly, Long Xu Nian walked to her dilapidated courtyard. Even those servants didn't care about her and the place was even worse. No one cared whether she was still alive or not in Wen Family.

In fact, Long Xu Nian felt that a lot of people wanted her death from a long time ago.

Unfortunately, she had no interest in fulfilling their wishes.

She will live.

Live better than these b*stard who dared to treat her so badly all these times.

Swish!

"Miss, there's a report. A chance will appear tomorrow."

Even though Long Qian Xing had eliminated most of her people, there were still some others whom she could use. Now that Long Qian Xing had caused so much damage to her and cut off her hope, she will do the same to him.

She wanted him to feel pain worse than the pain she experienced.

"Tomorrow?" Long Xu Nian's eyes glowed dangerously. She took the bamboo scroll that the man gave to her and then laughed with sneer.

"Then do everything necessary. I don't want any chance of failure."

"Yes, Miss!"

Long Xu Nian's eyes watched as the man disappeared into the darkness. She would make sure that everyone who had wronged her would pay the price. She will make them feel the pain worse than what she had experienced.

Everything they treasured… she will take it away!

…

That night, a lot of people were secretly moving in the dark.

On the other hand, Nan Hua was still as calm as ever inside her quarter. She had a good night sleep and woke up early the next day. Her eyes were looking at her four maidservants.

"I have different assignment for you."

"Please tell us, Miss." Xiao Yun patted her chest assuredly. "We'll do our best to make sure that we'll finish whatever you ask us to do."

Mu Yan nodded.

Chu Yue grinned. "What can I do for you, Miss?"

Ran looked at Nan Hua curiously and also nodded vigorously.

The four of them had different reaction, but it was clear that they were ready to do whatever Nan Hua asked them to do. In fact, it was rather rare for Nan Hua to gather all of them together like this.

Soon, Nan Hua told them what she wanted them to do and their expression changed greatly.

That's…

"Can you do it?"

"Leave it to me, Miss." Xiao Yun took a deep breath then nodded. Beside her, Ran also nodded her head repeatedly.

Nan Hua nodded. This plan was an improvisation that she made because of the changed trajectory that she caused with her relationship with Long Qian Xing. However, she still didn't know how this would end.

And if she had to say honestly, she didn't quite trust Long Qian Xing just yet. He might treat her well, but the novel clearly stated that he fell for the female lead after their interaction with each other.

Nan Hua didn't know which one she should trust more.

But….

Time will tell the answer for this question of hers.

Since that was the case, she would follow the plan that she had designed and see how the future will unfold with how things were going now. She didn't want to give her heart only to be hurt once more.

"Let's go."

"Yes, Miss."

…

The carriage came out of Nan Family Residence and headed towards Yi Shang Temple surrounded with a lot of guards. When the people saw the guards who were guarding the carriages, they were all stunned. They really couldn't believe their eyes upon how much Great General Nan valued his granddaughter.

But even if they had something to say, they didn't dare to say it outright in front of Old Master Nan and humiliate him. They still treasured their lives.

At the gate, Long Qian Xing looked at the carriage leaving from the gate.

"Young Master."

Long Qian Xing glanced to the back and nodded his head. "Prepare everything to go. We're going to leave soon."

"Yes."

Looking at the departing carriage, Long Qian Xing could faintly remember the young girl from yesterday. She looked so soft and small, petite and cute, just like a little kid that needed to be protected.

But the look in her eyes bothered him.

He thought about it but couldn't understand why he felt that way.

And there was a trace of unwillingness grew within his heart when he looked at the departing carriage. This was not the first time the two of them would be away for a long period of time, but Long Qian Xing didn't want to leave the location.

Behind him, Long Xu and Lou chose to stay silent and said nothing.

They knew that it was not their position to discuss about what their Master wanted to do. Still, they wondered how long Long Qian Xing planning to stay here and watched that carriage.

It was already so far, Young Master!

"Come on."

As Long Qian Xing left, there were quite a lot of people who started to move. This might be just a small event for so many people, but for some others, this was something that they would say to be a chance.

…

<Inside Nan Family Residence.>

Old Master Nan looked at Hou Lin, who had just returned. He carried several bamboo strips, which he handed to Old Master Nan. On top of those were the names of the people who had decided to take this chance in order to make their move.

"Hua'er is smart." Old Master Nan sighed. "She knows very well that these people will have no other choice but to make their move today in order to make sure that they could launch their revenge."

Any later, there wouldn't be any other chance.

Old Master Nan would have completely destroyed them. Even if it took time, it would take a long time. Many of them were people who had important position and also slippery, but these were all people who had gone against him again and again.

There was no chance of reconciliation.

The leftover from the cleaning up was still there. Only a few people left but they pose a problem if they were left alone.

Old Master Nan didn't want to leave any loose end.

He was ready to take a long time to clean them one by one before Nan Hua came to propose this plan to him and also explained the cause and effect that it would bring.

But still….

"The next time she proposes such a plan, I'll personally break her leg!" Old Master Nan said with a dark face.

Hou Lin looked at the enraged Old Master Nan and silently said in his heart, 'Master, that's what you say now, but when she truly does it again, I'm sure you'll not have the heart to do so, Old Master.'

But of course, there was no way Hou Lin would say it in front of Old Master Nan's face.

Hou Lin still treasured his life very much.
