Chapter 784: It’s Not OverOld Master Nan and Nan Hua entered the carriage.        

    

The meeting was not over yet, but it was not something Old Master Nan wanted to participate in. He had his men inside and they would be more than enough for now.    

"Hua'er."    

"Yes, Grandfather?"    

"Do you know that man not far behind Prime Minister Bei?" Old Master Nan naturally noticed Nan Hua's subtle gaze. He had long paid close attention to Nan Hua's change of expression and faint movement, so he naturally noticed that.    

"Xian Si, a scholar from Shi Long Kingdom who move to Fei Yang Kingdom a few years ago." Nan Hua glanced at Old Master Nan. "And also the person His Majesty will select to replace Prime Minister Bei in a few more days."    

Old Master Nan was stunned then laughed.    

As expected of his granddaughter, she even knew about this matter. He raised his hand and rubbed her head. Looking at the way Nan Hua tied her hair like boys, he sighed deeply.    

If only it was possible, he wanted her to dress up freely as a young girl all the time.    

"There's no need for us to participate in the chaos outside. The others are more than enough to handle them." Old Master Nan smiled. If those people couldn't even handle this kind of thing, it would mean that they're very useless.    

"The other kingdoms are anxious."    

"You also realize it?" Old Master Nan looked at the window. "Which kingdom do you think His Majesty will set his eyes first?"    

"Wei Da Kingdom is weak, so it's better to take advantage of its position to push them back in order to gain some territory." Nan Hua narrowed her eyes. "Afterwards, deal with Zhang Xu Kingdom. It might take a long time to deal with them because of their manpower and tactics."    

Old Master Nan looked at his granddaughter and nodded. By entering Wei Da Kingdom and push them a bit, they would be able to gain some advantageous position. It would grant them some leeway and advantage to attack Zhang Xu Kingdom in order to conquer them.    

However, saying it was easier than doing it.    

When they attacked Wei Da Kingdom to gain the territory, they would have to watch out for the attacks from other kingdoms.    

"Zhang Xu Kingdom will launch an attack towards Fan Yi Kingdom prior to New Year." Nan Hua glanced at Old Master Nan. "At that time, they would not have the time to take advantage of Fei Yang Kingdom."    

"You even have news of other kingdoms?" Old Master Nan was thoroughly speechless. He had the feeling that the organization under Nan Hua had developed so much even though they were based in Xia Mountains. How was it possible.    

Nan Hua was silent.    

Naturally, she knew this from the original novel. And Emperor Yang Zhou would also get the wind of this matter because of his collaboration with someone in Qi Xi Kingdom. That way, they would begin their attack but not completely conquer Wei Da Kingdom in order to make use of them to give pressure to Shi Long.    

Being the third party in a war could be quite good…    

*cough*    

Old Master Nan sighed when he saw the gaze in his granddaughter's eyes. "What do you want to do now? Depart to the battlefield?"    

Nan Hua shook her head. "Wait. It's not over for the Nan Family yet."    

"Do you plan to help your father?"    

"No."        



    

As if feeling that her answer was a bit too fast, Nan Hua thought for a moment before adding, "He might have the closest blood relation with me, but his action didn't show it at all."    

Old Master Nan looked at his granddaughter and nodded. He had given up on his son too. Even though he didn't banish that brat or punish him, he would not help Nan Shu Cheng anymore.    

The problem he caused… would have to be settled by himself.    

The only pity was that when he was brought down, he would definitely bring Nan Hua's name down too. After all, she had been staying with them for three months. They were not close, but they have blood relation.    

How annoying.    

As one said, it's better to have smart opponent than lousy teammate.    

…    

    

Slash!    

Long Qian Xing killed the last rioter and stood there. He had naturally noticed the reinforcement and waved his hand, indicating that his soldier had to start capturing them alive.    

It was time for them to start interrogation.    

"Imperial Guard Lan." Long Qian Xing cupped his fist.    

Imperial Guard Lan twitched his lips when he saw how polite Long Qian Xing was. The memory of the brutal night in the palace was still very fresh in his mind even though some time had passed.    

Since then, he had always been scared of Long Qian Xing.    

"Young Commander Long, you can leave this place to me. Prime Minister Lan had headed to the north. There is some chaos at the west that might more help to settle. You may head there."    

West?    

Thinking about Chi Song Lian who was over there, Long Qian Xing merely shook his head internally. He should have expected that that brat wouldn't be able to do anything properly with his hotheadedness.    

(He had completely forgotten that Chi Song Lian was older than him physically)    

"I understand, Imperial Guard Lan."    

After exchanging the short pleasantries, Long Qian Xing led his men towards the west. Looking around, he noticed that it was not that bad like what Imperial Guard Lan said. It was just that there was an idiot who let loose the horse that caused them to go rampart and destroyed some of the things here.    

"What are you doing here?" Chi Song Lian had just returned. His armor was stained with blood and there was bloodthirsty aura around his body.    

Long Qian Xing glanced at Chi Song Lian and shrugged. "I'm asked to help you here, Young Commander Chi. I see that there are more damages here compared to my place."

Hearing those words, Chi Song Lian's veins bulged once more.    

He really really wanted to give a good punch to Long Qian Xing's face.    

The other soldiers were speechless at the interaction of these two young commanders.        

    



Long Qian Xing's soldiers glanced at their commander and then lowered their head once more. They felt that Long Qian Xing really had the talent of making others angry and annoyed. Just one or two sentences from him were more than enough to cause a lot of people to be angry.    

They were not exception.    

Whenever Long Qian Xing gave additional training… they would be in despair.    

"The horses are making trouble." Chi Song Lian snorted. He really wanted to say that he didn't need Long Qian Xing's help but he was sure that the other party would just reply that it was an order.    

If it was a military order, would he be able to go against it?    

There was no way.    

"They can't be go crazy for no reason. Have you found the instigator?"    

"Some medicines and a few servants ordered by someone in Qu Family."    

Qu Family?    

Long Qian Xing felt that this surname was somewhat familiar, but he couldn't really remember where he had seen it before. Since he couldn't remember it, it meant that this must be categorized to be quite bad but weak.    

"In that case, I'll settle the report and hand it to His Majesty."    

"I can do it by myself. You don't have to do it." Chi Song Lian glared coldly to Long Qian Xing. He wouldn't let his merit be taken by someone else.    

Long Qian Xing raised his hand. "Fine, I'll just settle the citizen and their compensation. There are quite a lot of damages here."    

"The Qu Family will bankrupt overnight."    

"Right."    

…    

    

While the outside world was in turmoil because the Emperor had already selected some officials to rise higher while the rest were instead downgraded, the palace was somewhat peaceful. The women couldn't participate in politics and naturally, could only wait for the result.    

At this point, Empress Dowager Yan was sipping tea in her courtyard. She had heard of what had happened and knew that it was time for the cleanup. Not all of them would be brought down today, but it was inevitable that they would do it within a few more days.    

At that time, Yan Family would be implicated.    

They were not clean and Empress Dowager Yan had long known about this matter. She also had no intention of pleading for their behalf.    

"Your Highness, there are guest coming from Yan Family."    

Empress Dowager Yan lifted her head, her eyes were staring at the gate. A cold glint flashed within her eyes. "It's time for them to come. Attend me."    

The maidservants moved as fast as possible as they attended Empress Dowager Yan. All of them maintained the same silence as they used to be. At this moment, they were trying to guess what Empress Dowager Yan's attitude towards her family would be.    

Before long, Empress Dowager Yan was already dressed in accordance to her status. Sitting on her courtyard, she waved her hand.        

    

The maidservant allowed the people from outside to come.    

"Your Highness!"
