Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower novel Chapter 648

Chapter 648 Long Qian Xing’s Promise

Old Madam Long was speechless.

Whatever her grandson said then.

But it seemed that he was more meticulous than her son. Back then, her son had created a much bigger trouble than Long Qian Xing but unable to fully clear up the mess without having some damaging reputation and had to settle some annoying things with money.

”I’ll leave first, Grandmother.” Long Qian Xing cupped his fist and then led Nan Hua away.

Old Madam Long looked at the three other women. Since it had come to this, let’s just clean up the entire mess first.

She had long wanted to kick them out.

This just gave her a good excuse.

While Old Madam Long settled the other three concubines, Nan Hua followed Long Qian Xing. The two of them walked on the stone path that led into the inner garden where Old Madam Long planted her fruit trees. It was a peaceful place since not many servants dared to come.

”She’ll never be back and there wouldn’t be a second one,” Long Qian Xing said in a low voice.

Nan Hua raised her head and saw Long Qian Xing had stopped. He was looking in her direction with his deep gaze. Now that Long Qian Xing was 18 years old, he had grown much taller than before. She had to raise her head if she wished to look at him directly.

”The kingdom is in a mess and it’s hard to do everything you want without affecting the overall picture.” Long Qian Xing himself didn’t like the idea, but he knew that he was not completely free. As a leader, as a person of Fei Yang Kingdom, he couldn’t completely disregard other people’s condition when he made his decision.

”To be willful all the time and to always be arrogant is impossible unless you have the entire world in your palm.”

Nan Hua’s eyes were clear without even the slightest bit of ripples. She looked at Long Qian Xing and said each word slowly, “I understand, Brother Long.”

She’s not stupid.

Even though Long Qian Xing didn’t want to have a concubine, it was hard for him to disregard the Imperial Edict. Many people might think that it was fine to disregard the Imperial Edict, but in truth, the society was stricter than what they could possibly imagine.

Only those who lived in this era understood.

Imperial Edict was absolute.

They had to follow it or die. The only time when they could bypass the Imperial Edict was when they have more power than the Emperor. But would something like that be easily achievable?

And Long Qian Xing took a different route.

He simply supported the next person to be the Emperor and when Emperor Yang Zhou formally become the undisputable ruler, no one would be able to shake Long Qian Xing’s position. At that time, no matter how willful he would be, no matter how much people hate him, they wouldn’t be able to do anything to him.

In both military and politics, he had his people who will support him no matter what happened.

Shangguan Mi was only an exception.
