Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower novel Chapter 1620

Chapter 1620 General Chi's Family Problem

"Indeed. I didn't expect His Majesty to call me here again." Shangguan Yu smiled.

Prince Yang Lu narrowed his eyes. His half imperial brother called him for some annoying things that he wanted him to do. Even though Prince Yang Lu felt that they were troublesome, it was better than having nothing to do.

Anyway, most of his time was still spent leisurely with his wife in his residence.

"There are many works to be done after Zhang Xu Kingdom's fall. His Majesty will need as many help as possible."

"Indeed. The Imperial Examination will be held in a few weeks. There will be a lot of people who will come and participate at that time." Shangguan Yu nodded.

Prince Yang Lu pursed his lips.

Those who had passed the Imperial Examination would be investigated before they could truly be used. Emperor Yang Zhou wouldn't want to use people he couldn't understand and didn't know anything about.

The door opened and these two stopped talking.

They were preparing themselves to be summoned by the Emperor to talk about some matters.

But before they could come in, they saw an eunuch come out, his expression was solemn. "There's a problem with General Chi's family and His Majesty wished for His Highnesses to be the one to settle this matter."

General Chi?

Prince Yang Lu and Shangguan Yu both furrowed their eyebrows.

What happened?

…

<General Chi's Residence>

General Chi was actually following the others on their return journey because the Chi Family was living not far from the Capital City. He even had a residence here because his son used to be staying here and attended the academy.

His family members were living a prosperous life because they relied on his achievements and also the money he earned.

HIs achievements on the battlefield was a lot.

Because of these achievements, he was able to earn a lot of money. And as a general who spent most of his life on the frontline, General Chi knew that he wouldn't' be able to use it all up.

So he spare a bit to subsidy the lives of his relatives.

This time, he earned even more money.

His trusted manservant had already hidden them in a secluded place where he planned to spend his retirement.

He had no plan to share the money with his family members this time.

After what happened to Chi Tan Qiang back then, he also realized that these so called relatives didn't care for him in the slightest bit. They treated him as nothing more than a source of money.

So this time, he came back.

But he didn't bring any money.

"Dong Wei, you're here." General Chi's uncle smiled when he saw him. "We have heard about your story from the battlefield, it hasn't been easy for you."
