Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower novel Chapter 208

Old Master Nan was not the only one eavesdropper.

Nan Hua had silently followed them. Since Nan Luo's quarter was not far from her own and he talked about these in his quarter, she could listen from a distance away. Hearing the experience of the original Nan Hua from Xiao Yun's mouth, there was a strange feeling inside her heart.

It was not her.

But why did she felt as if her heart was pounding with dull pain?

Was it the memory from this body before she came over?

Nan Hua didn't know. The memory she had from the original Nan Hua was exceptionally rare and in pieces. Even with the poison that Old Master Nan asked her to drink to increase her immunity, it only helped to recover very small part of the original Nan Hua's memory.

Without saying anything, Nan Hua silently slipped away and returned to her own quarter to rest.

…

Morning.

Several people came to Nan Shu Cheng's Residence and shouted from early morning. The passerby were all stunned to see a lot of people surrounded the residence.

"Qu Fei Jiao! Come out!"

"You burn down our houses! Come out here and compensate us for our losses!"

"Just how much hatred do you have to burn our houses?"

"We don't even have any relation!"

It took some time for the people there to find out that there was fire in Rou City not long ago. The soldiers already sent people to investigate the matter and right now, the people here all said that they saw Qu Fei Jiao, Concubine Qu, was the one responsible for the matter.

They even claimed that there was evidence in the soldiers' hand that said it was indeed related to Qu Fei Jiao.

By the time Nan Shu Cheng came out, the mess was already uncontrollable. "Everyone, Qu Fei Jiao is not related…"

"That's a lie!"

"Don't speak to us as if you know everything! We're there and listen to how Qu Fei Jiao asked the group of people to burn the entire city."

"Yeah! She even pay a lot of silver taels!" _{fɾeewebnoveℓ.co๓}

"Just investigate it, you'll found out that a lot of silvers had been lost without any records where it went!"

"Yes! Investigate it!"

With so many people making ruckus, it was hard for Nan Shu Cheng to pacify them. In the end, the soldiers had to come and helped. But at that time, Nan Shu Cheng was late for morning court and when he rushed over, he found out that they had heard about this mess.

Being reprimanded in front of the other officials seemed unavoidable.

"Please believe me. My wife is innocent and not involved in this matter at all." Nan Shu Cheng felt a bit desperate. He knew very well that Qu Fei Jiao did take some of the silvers for herself but he always turned a blind eye to that.
