Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower novel Chapter 222

Old Madam Long was taken aback by Nan Hua's question. She thought that the little lass would be more worried about her attendance, but she was instead asking about this. She smiled faintly. "Zhang Xu Kingdom."

Zhang Xu Kingdom.

Nan Hua was not unfamiliar with this name. It was the name of the kingdom that was bordering Fei Yang Kingdom at the north. There were three different kingdoms bordering Fei Yang Kingdom, though their location was somewhat peculiar.

At the west and south of Fei Yang Kingdom was mountain range, so the other kingdom that bordered them only located at the north, northeast, and also east. Beyond the mountain range on the west was a vast dessert while the mountain range on the south was too troublesome to conquer.

Thus, they didn't even think of expanding their territory to either side.

Zhang Xu Kingdom, that was located at the north of Fei Yang Kingdom also suffered the same fate on its west border. They couldn't expand more to the west because of the vast and dry desert that didn't end even if they were looking at it from the top of the mountain.

Thus, no one has been thinking of exploring to the west.

They also didn't have the resources to do so.

Only some tribes were living in those areas. They rarely interacted with the kingdoms here, though.

If they arranged treaty with Zhang Xu Kingdom, it meant that they would attack…

Nan Hua's brain thought hard and nodded faintly. The storyline was progressing just like what she had known. This would be the beginning of war against another kingdom. The treaty was only signed to make sure that Zhang Xu Kingdom would not attack them during this crucial period of time.

In addition, Zhang Xu Kingdom also needed this treaty because they were attacking another kingdom that was bordering their north. They had to make sure that Fei Yang would not attack them at the south area or they would be doomed. Facing attack at both the north and south would prove to be extremely difficult.

"I see."

Old Madam Long chuckled when she saw Nan Hua's serious expression. "You sound as if you know the plan of the higher ups. In any case, you'll have to participate in this banquet."

Nan Hua was stunned as she raised her head in confusion. Why would she had to participate when she was nothing more than a little brat?

"Every noble had to come and you, as the daughter of a noble family, will definitely be invited." Old Madam Long sighed. If only it was possible, she also didn't want Nan Hua to come to this party. She would be alone as the males and females' location would be separated.

At this moment, Old Madam Long was worried for this little lass's safety!

"I can't come because this old bone is said to be told to rest." Old Madam Long snorted in annoyance. Because of her excuse, she couldn't come and there were many letter given to her that stated she had to rest properly.

Rest?!

She was healthy enough to even throw utensil on their heads!

*sigh*

"I know you're a kind girl, but it's because of that I want you to be more careful. Princess Yue didn't have good impression of Nan Family and might target you because of that." Old Madam Long sighed.

Kind?

Of all words that could be used to describe herself, Nan Hua would never use the word kind. Someone like her, who had killed thousands or might be millions of people, had already stained her hand with too much blood. There were too many to count as Nan Hua didn't even remember all of her target. There was no way that she could be called kind.

As for Princess Yue disliking her…

Nan Hua knew that. Back at the temple, Princess Yue had deliberately tried to make things difficult for her. If this time Princess Yue wanted to make things difficult again, Nan Hua didn't mind to play along.

Of course, that princess should be ready to pay for the price.

She didn't mind acting like a low and weak girl, but she would not let them off if they tried to tarnish her reputation and put Nan Family in difficult position.

In this world, a girl lived by their reputation and her family also needed the reputation if they didn't want others to make things difficult for them.
