Nan Hua watched as Shangguan Xiao acted polite and lowered her gaze. How could she not know that he was trying to build good image in front of the other commander. It seemed that the Shangguan Family was indeed filled with scheming people.
"Are we going to stay here any longer?" Nan Luo asked curiously.
Feng Ao Kuai looked into the distance. "Grandfather hadn't returned yet."
"Aww…"
Nan Luo didn't want to stay here any longer, especially when he saw that Shangguan Die was clearly looking in their direction as if wishing for their death. He didn't know what made the two Shangguan siblings to hate them so much.
At this time, the other four were still talking with each other in the middle of the field. After some struggle, Feng Ao Si managed to stand up properly even though his body was still hurting so badly.
"If you would like to rest, I can prepare a place for all of you," Shangguan Xiao offered.
"There's no need." Long Qian Xing straightened his back. He knew that General Shangguan had already hold back when dealing with him. "I'll be waiting for the winter training later."
"Father said that he'll hold it after the end year examination. I wish you the best."
"Ah." Feng Ao Si's face turned dark when he recalled the examination from the academy that would be hold at the beginning of winter. He managed to skip it last year because he was not in the Capital City. But now he would have no other choice but to participate in it.
Long Qian Xing chuckled. "Don't worry about it, Second Young Commander Shangguan." freewebnøvel.coɱ
Shangguan Xiao nodded. As he passed by Long Qian Xing while trying to walk steadily, a bamboo strip was silently slipped in. No one saw how the bamboo strip moved from Shangguan Xiao to Long Qian Xing's hand.
The two youths also kept their appearances.
Nan Hua was silently watching the two of them. She knew this event in the novel and that the bamboo strip was actually the clue for him. The prelude of the first big war in Fei Yang Kingdom had officially started.
In a few months' time, the war would start.
She turned her head to the side and saw Shangguan Die staring daggers at her. She glanced back and saw Xiao Yun, who was staying with her was trembling once more. Her eyes narrowed.
"Grandfather had come out. Let's go back."
"Mhm."
Old Master Nan walked out and looked around for his grandchildren. Upon seeing the four brats, he nodded his head, indicating for them to come out.
Nan Hua walked into the hall and passed a look at the food there. The corner of her lips showed a disdainful curl. They thought that they could mix the herbs without her knowing but in truth, she had already found out long ago. If she stayed here, it was clear that the Shangguan Family wanted to make things worse between the younger generation.
But how could Nan Hua let it happen?
She would never let them succeed. As for what the original Nan Hua did, she didn't have any clue whatsoever because it was not written.
