Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower novel Chapter 1243

Long Qian Xing sneezed.

He rubbed his nose and looked to the back, wondering whether it was Shangguan Xiao or Nan Luo who were talking bad about him. Thinking about Nan Luo and how he always wanted to make him stay away from his twin sister, he felt somewhat helpless.

In the end, he pushed the thought to the back.

The palace in Yi City was really big. It took Long Qian Xing a quarter of an incense stick of time to be able to reach the inner palace and managed to find Emperor Yang Zhou. Unlike before where Emperor Yang Zhou would be staying on that tall area and overlooked the city, he was now standing in the middle of a bridge, watching the small river flowing in the middle of it.

At this time, he looked somewhat serene and solemn.

"Young Master Long, Long Qian Xing, greets His Majesty." Long Qian Xing stopped at an appropriate distance and knelt on the ground while cupping his fist.

Emperor Yang Zhou didn't immediately answer. He took a deep breath. "Qian Xing, I've decided…. I'll lead the soldiers personally in the battle against Zhang Xu Kingdom."

Long Qian Xing's eyes widened. He really wanted to raise his head to be able to see Emperor Yang Zhou's expression, but he held himself back. In the end, he replied, "Your Majesty, that will be dangerous."

"Is it?" Emperor Yang Zhou asked, his tone was somewhat placid. "I would like to see with my own eyes as Zhang Xu Kingdom fall in the future."

As he said that, Emperor Yang Zhou turned to look at Long Qian Xing. Ordinary people would not know, but his mother actually came from Zhang Xu Kingdom. It was also one of the reasons why she hated him so much.

Because she gave birth to him, she never had a chance to step into her hometown again. Because of his existence, she would always be reminded that the person who used to love her would not hesitate to throw her away for power and glory. Because he's the descendant of the Emperor, she would always be scorned by the people from her place.

He could not understand her hatred.

Even if he knew that she hated him so much, he could not completely sympathize with her because of what those people from Zhang Xu Kingdom had done when he was young.

How much misery he experienced because of them…

This time, he wanted to see their fall with his own eyes.

For other kingdoms, he didn't care that much and there were indeed many things to settle in the Imperial Palace. But for Zhang Xu Kingdom alone… he wanted to be there and watched as the kingdom fall into his own hands.

Long Qian Xing didn't answer immediately. He might have been Emperor Yang Zhou's study partner ever since he was young, but it didn't change the fact that he was actually a few years younger than Emperor Yang Zhou physically. Not to mention, before they met, he did hear about what had happened to Emperor Yang Zhou.

Taking a deep breath, Long Qian Xing raised his head and looked at Emperor Yang Zhou.

Emperor Yang Zhou had always talked about how much the Imperial Family taught him to be indifferent. Because only when he became indifferent would he have no weakness and not be used by other people who only wanted his power.
