Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower novel Chapter 2436

"Yes, Grandpa," Nan Hua replied. "His Majesty should have arrived by that city by now and might have started to rebuilt the roads and everything. Within a few years, it’s estimated that the new city would be far more prosperous than Cheng City."

Emperor Yang Zhou wanted to establish a new dynasty and a new era under his name. For this, he wanted to establish a new capital city too.

Though, Nan Hua also knew that one of the main reasons why Emperor Yang Zhou picked that city was related to the northern tribes that was located north of Fan Yi Kingdom. The northern tribes have been making trouble even far before the warring era and there were many records left mentioning about this matter.

The problems had never been solved and Emperor Yang Zhou was determined to make things better for Fei Yang Kingdom.

It was just that she was not entirely sure what Emperor Yang Zhou was planning.

After all, she was not him.

She only knew that Emperor Yang Zhou picked that city in order to get closer to the north border, which would allow them to respond faster in case there was a breach.

Technically, Emperor Yang Zhou could also pick Zhang Xu Kingdom’s former Capital City, Liang City. Before the land was divided into several kingdoms, there was already a ruler staying in Liang City and governed the land. The emperors there from generation to generation, would send capable generals and retainers to help blocking the northern tribe.

This was what happened over the years.

And Nan Hua knew very well that Emperor Yang Zhou could do the same.

But perhaps, he didn’t want to.

Because he had seen that sending people to block the northern tribe would never truly solve the problem. Instead, it had become the prelude for the appearance of these kingdoms.

Especially because the one sent to the north was the Emperor’s brother.

Nan Hua was not sure about their history, but she knew that after the north area was given to the Emperor’s brother, the prince and his descendants never returned and continued to protect the border. After several decades, things slowly shift and the capable people started to proclaim themselves to be the emperor.*

That was how the warring era originally started.

Perhaps, Emperor Yang Zhou was worried that history would repeat itself, so he didn’t pick Liang City.

Another reason might be because of Emperor Yang Zhou’s personal hatred towards Zhang Xu Kingdom. _{ƒгeewёbnovel.com}

Nan Hua didn’t know and didn’t want to speculate.

"Its good," Old Master Nan said and nodded.

He didn’t care that he was no longer staying in the so called capital city. For Old Master Nan, it was enough for him if he was able to stay with his grandchildren and had the chance to see them grew up and live well.

Besides, this city held a lot of memory for Old Master Nan too, so he would rather stay here rather than going to a new place.

His old body couldn’t handle it if he was being tossed around either.

"Do you want to stay there, Hua’er?" Old Madam Long suddenly asked.
