Now, he could vividly remember it once more.
Madam Nan has always been a determined person. Since she had agreed to marry him, she chose to support him without hesitation using her own way. She smiled at him shyly on the first day they met in that room.
After that, she would slowly get close to him and helped to massage him when he was tired. There were many happy memories he had with his first wife. Laughing and talking happily, imagining the beautiful future they would have as Nan Shu Cheng's rank increased.
Madam Nan would help him in his study.
She prepared everything that she could prepare so that he could have the necessary knowledge to pass the examination and also solve the problem that had plagued the Fei Yang Kingdom.
The days were filled with happiness.
But it was impossible for the two of them to get along without having proper communication, and slowly but surely, he began to dislike her involvement.
The fact that she was pushed on him by his father was one of the factors that made him unable to truly appreciate her presence. He took her for granted, and when she left, he felt the emptiness.
The warm and beautiful days were over.
What replaced it was the cold days when she no longer even wanted to look at him. Nan Shu Cheng could never forget the gaze Madam Nan gave to him back then. From resentment to indifference.
It didn't happen in a matter of days.
It occurred over a long period of time as Nan Shu Cheng kept on hurting her over and over again.
And now, Nan Shu Cheng only felt that he was truly incompetent.
Not only he fell for the temptation to do these deeds, but he also fell into the temptation to treat her worse and worse because of his arrogance. He never cared about her feelings and only felt that she would always treat him the same.
But how could it be?
Human emotion had limits too. It was not an inexhaustible thing.
As Nan Shu Cheng's body trembled, Qu Fei Jiao also looked in Nan Hua's direction and her eyes burned in hatred. She hated this young girl very much.
Why?
Why did she could get away even though she was part of Nan Family? Just what was different between the two of them that caused them to be treated so differently like this?
Qu Fei Jiao couldn't accept this.
She couldn't accept this end.
But as she was about to struggle, the guard who watched over her tightened his grip. He looked at the woman with a cold gaze and increased his strength, not caring whether he hurt the other party or not.
Nan Hua swept her gaze across the hall. Aside from Nan Shu Cheng and Qu Fei Jiao, there were only Concubine Mei, Nan Hou Xiang, and Nan Xin. Concubine Xin was already executed, while the other concubines were not present.
It seemed that they had decided to release those concubines back to their maternal family.
Only those who were truly deeply involved were here.
Emperor Yang Zhou looked at the two people who had just arrived and nodded his head. "You can wait by the side, Long Qian Xing, Nan Hua."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Hearing those obviously biased words, Nan Hou Xiang couldn't stand it. He was about to struggle and get up, but the guard raised the sword and knocked him back down. The guard frowned and felt that this young master was clearly looking for trouble.
At this moment, Nan Hou Xiang was thinking about the differential treatment between him and Nan Hua. He couldn't believe that Nan Hua was pardoned so easily while he was treated like some kind of criminal here.
He hadn't done anything!
If only he was not gagged or anything, he would have screamed out loudly. He wanted to tell them that he was not guilty of anything!
As the young master of the Nan Family, when did Nan Hou Xiang ever suffer from such treatment?
He wanted to yell, scream, and kick if only it was possible.
However, the guards behind him prevented him from doing anything unnecessary. There was no way that he would let him off so easily.
