Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower

Chapter 293 – I Want To Participate!

Hearing his sons and nephew's response, General Feng really felt like he was facing a wall. It seemed that his sons were all too peculiar with one another. But well, it was also true that Feng Ao Si was older than most of his cousins, making it hard for him to get along with them well.

As for Nan Luo… Feng Qian Shao could only say that he really couldn't hope much from this nephew of his.

Nan Hua was the most impossible for him to ask such thing. If he dared to do that, he was sure that he would be in for an entire day's lecture from Old Master Nan. There was no way he would be able to escape his punishment.

"He's already back to his residence, so there's no time for you to think about it." Feng Qian Shao sighed. "There'll be a big war soon after the treaty. Do you want to participate?"

Feng Ao Si's eyes lit up. "YES!"

Feng Ao Kuai also nodded his head in excitement. Even though he looked like he didn't have much care of the world, he was actually someone who couldn't stay quiet. Now that there was a chance for him to participate in war, how could it be possible for him to stay behind and just watch?

He wanted to participate!

Nan Luo's eyes also lit up. This would be the first time he would ever participate in war. He looked at his uncle eagerly as if asking for permission to participate. Right now, he looked like a small puppy who was trying hard to gain attention on himself.

"Uncle, can I come too?"

"I would have to ask your grandfather…" Feng Qian Shao knew that if Old Master Nan didn't allow it, he would never be able to bring Nan Luo to the battlefield. At the same time, he was wondering whether it was too early for him to bring Nan Luo along or not.

After all, Nan Luo was only 10 years old.

Uh wait, it seemed that Feng Ao Kuai was also 10 years old when he first brought that brat to the battlefield.

"Oh." Nan Luo looked a bit conflicted. He didn't know whether his grandfather would even allow him to participate at the battle. However, there was still hope. Even if he could only play a very small role, he wanted to witness the battle firsthand!

"Ah Shao," Nan Si Qiao called when she saw her husband. A smile bloomed on her face, causing her youthful face to look like it was shining.

"Qiao'er, I'm back." Feng Qian Shao smiled back.

The children naturally knew that the couple would want this time for themselves, thus they excused themselves and headed to the main hall. They knew that Old Master Nan was there, thus they couldn't wait to talk with him about the matter that General Feng discussed just now.

Old Master Nan was already suspicious when he saw the children looked so excited. When he heard their request, he didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

"This time, Fei Yang Kingdom is the one taking the initiative to attack, so it will be different than when Fei Yang Kingdom is attacked." Old Master Nan rubbed his beard as he thought about the battle. "I don't think it's time for you to participate in war, Luo."

Nan Luo felt as if there was a bucket of water poured on his head. He pouted and looked at his grandfather with half begging expression.

"But I'm already 10 years old. I'm not a little kid anymore! Grandpa, I want to see the battlefield for real. Even if I can only stand at the side like Cousin Ao Kuai, I don't mind…."

Feng Ao Kuai's lips twitched. He really didn't participate in the battle directly because his role was that of a spectator in order to analyze the strategy used. It was also due to this that Feng Ao Kuai didn't have any military title like his older brother.

He was also not interested to become a commander directly.

Come to think about it, should he participate in the war directly this time? His strength and stamina might be a bit problem for such a long war, though.

"Luo… you're too young." Old Master Nan looked at his grandson and sighed. As much as he wanted Nan Luo to come and participate, he was also worried that something will happen to the young boy.

"I can protect myself." Nan Luo pursed his lips. "Also, Hou Liang is there and…"

"Hou Liang's task is not to protect you but to win the war."

"Then Hou Lin…"

"His task is to scout and send information back."

Old Master Nan looked at his grandson and shook his head. "If you're three years older, I wouldn't have hesitated to send you to the frontline."

3 years older?

Nan Luo felt like fuming when he heard what his grandfather said to him. He had to wait for three whole years before he could participate at the battlefield?

Feng Ao Kuai and Nan Hua both felt that it was reasonable. After all, Feng Ao Si had only participated when he was around 12-13 years old. Even though Feng Ao Si was still quite young, his mentality was no longer so childish and it naturally meant that he was more ready.

Though, Nan Hua was thinking of herself too.

Back then, she had started to participate in the mission when she was 10 years old. There was never a time when she felt that she was too young. After all, her missions were often successful because of her young age.

Her opponents underestimated her or didn't even think of her as their opponent, causing her to finish the mission easily.

As one would often say:

Appearance can be deceiving.

"That's too long, Grandfather. I'll stay with Brother Kuai! I'll just watch! Please, I want to see the real battlefield…." Nan Luo began to babble anything he could think of in order to make his grandfather agreed to send him to the battlefield.

Even if he was at the rear end of the line, he didn't mind!
