Nan Hua's eyes carefully scanned the door in front of her.
'Key.'
There was a keyhole there, which was quite surprising considering the current era's design. However, Nan Hua knew that it was indeed a very special door that sealed the most important thing in Wei Da Kingdom.
Something that not even the current emperor would know.
Only the founder of Wei Da Kingdom knew what was behind this door along with those who kept the record and had read it.
Nan Hua knew from the novel.
She stood there and then turned around. Someone was coming to this place, so if she didn't want to get found, she had to escape as quickly as possible. But as the rhythmical steps entered her ear, Nan Hua's body didn't move from her place.
She recognized those steps.
Tep!
Long Qian Xing stopped in front of the opened door, looking at Nan with surprise. He hadn't sensed anyone inside even when he was coming here. Looking at the moved bookcase behind Nan, he could guess that 'he' came here for the secret behind this door too.
"I don't think Nan Family need it, right?" Long Qian Xing asked in a low voice as he walked inside, looking at the door behind Nan. His dark eyes were staring at the youth in front of him deeply.
For Nan to know about this door, it meant that the Nan Family was not completely blind about the secret that had been buried for more than a century. He himself only knew about it because of what Emperor Yang Zhou told him, so how could Nan Family knew about it earlier than him?
Was it because Nan Family once risen through the ranks higher than other nobles?
But ordinary emperors and nobles would never know about it.
"It doesn't belong to the Long Family either," Nan Hua replied unhurriedly. Her black obsidian eyes were staring at Long Qian Xing calmly.
Long Qian Xing chuckled. "I'm here under the order of His Majesty, Emperor Yang Zhou, to retrieve the thing inside."
Nan Hua still didn't move from her place.
Seeing the young adjutant posture, Long Qian Xing could guess that 'he' will not want to move until 'he' knew what was inside. The problem is, Long Qian Xing had no intention of involving Nan Family in this matter.
"Do you want to come inside?" Long Qian Xing asked, his eyes narrowed.
"It's my freedom to stay here and take a look at it."
The two of them looked at each other. Both were stubborn and didn't want to back down at all.
Long Qian Xing narrowed his eyes. "How deep is your relationship with Nan Family?"
Nan Hua didn't answer immediately.
How deep is her relationship with Nan Family?
If it was her dead father and her half siblings, the answer would be extremely far. So far that she didn't even want to be recognized as relatives and would be better off as strangers.
But this secret was passed down to Emperor Yang Zhou through some methods. freёwebnoѵel.com
