Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower novel Chapter 51

For the next few days, Nan Hua spent her time in the residence. Recently, there has been news about the Emperor falling sick. The ministers were all panicking and tried their best to figure out how to treat the Emperor. Many doctors were called to the palace to treat him.

Thanks to that, the atmosphere in the Capital City turned gloomy.

In Nan Family Residence, there was not much difference, though.

"The Emperor is only in power for four years, right?" Nan Luo asked as he twisted his body to evade the attack.

Hou Liang lightly drew the sword back and then attacked Nan Luo once more. "Yes, Young Master."

Tak!

Nan Luo clicked his tongue. "How unlucky of him to fall sick so severely within few short years of his reign."

"Indeed."

"But now that he's sick, who'll be in charge?" Nan Luo asked curiously.

Looking at the young master in front of him, Hou Liang smiled bitterly. "Young Master, I'm just a soldier and not an Imperial Family guard. I don't know the answer to your question."

"That's too bad."

Hou Liang: "…" I can investigate but at this time, it'll be too reckless to move around blindly.

Tak! Tak! Tak!

At the side, Nan Hua was playing with several needles in her hand. After getting the various sizes of needles from her grandfather, Nan Hua had been practicing with it almost every single day. It was easy for her to hide them in her sleeve or even in her hair, especially with the complicated hairstyle most women had.

Thud!

"I lost again." Nan Luo clicked his tongue as he waved his hand to erase the numbness. He glared at Hou Liang. "Why are you using so much power just to fight a child, ah?"

"Young Master, you're the one who ask me to use all of my power." Hou Liang looked at Nan Luo calmly.

Nan Luo stomped his legs and picked his swords. He played with it in his hands before he stopped. There was faint sound of gong from a distance away.

This…

"Will it affect us?"

"Maybe." Nan Hua lowered her gaze.

"Hua'er, you know something, don't you?" Nan Luo pouted. He felt that his sister was leaving him behind with how much she knew things.

Nan Hua didn't answer and returned to her quarter to put down anything that was of vibrant color. Since the Emperor passed away, there would be 100 mourning days for the entire nation.

Though, since it was war, the military would still have to proceed as usual. _{ƒree𝑤ebnσvel.com}

Prince Yang Zhou become the Emperor. However, he could only be Emperor in name since he was not of age yet.

For the Nan Family, there was nothing much different. Old Master Nan had to visit the palace for some formalities but Nan Hua and Nan Luo didn't have to be worried. After all, they were only children.

Children didn't need to know too much.

But how could Nan Hua stay silent and do nothing?
