Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower

Chapter 407 [Bonus chapter]Fight Against Hai Family (1)

Prince Yang Lu furrowed his eyebrows and looked at the young figure in front of him, wondering whether 'he' was an enemy or friend.

Clang! Clang!

Nan Hua noticed that Hai Fa Xia seemed to be able to follow her movement. It seemed that the title of one of the four commanders of Hai Family was not given for nothing. There were a total of four commanders in Hai Family with Hai Fa Xia being one of them while the other two had died back then.

The last commander was leading at the frontline on top of the wall. They were all trying to face against the reinforcement from Old Master Nan who had appeared.

'In that case…'

Swish! Swish!

As Nan Hua made a turn after evading the attack, several needles were thrown towards various joints of Hai Fa Xia.

Clang! Clang! Jleb!

Hai Fa Xia's face changed when he sensed the pain in his joint. He did wear an armor, but the joint was not completely covered. Normally, it would be hard for one to even trying to target his joint, but Nan Hua didn't think that way.

In fact, it was easy for her to target wherever she wanted.

"No…way…" Hai Fa Xia's legs felt weak and he fell to the ground, his body convulsing.

"You'll die soon," Nan Hua said calmly. She turned her head to look at Prince Yang Lu and Mu Fei Xin. In fact, she originally planned on killing everyone who were responsible for this matter because in the original , Prince Yang Lu was the one who lead.

The story that she read didn't depict this event very clearly because Long Qian Xing was in charge of stopping the reinforcement from one of the families who had close ties with Hai Family. They were powerful family and despite being only a 2000 men commander, Long Qian Xing managed to block them all.

When he arrived in Kuai City, everything was over and he only got the report. The report stated that Prince Yang Lu led the Hai Family for rebellions and then killed because he was unwilling to give up. His wife, Mu Fei Xin, was found dead in the main hall alongside with many soldiers there.

No one knew what happened.

Some speculated that Mu Fei Xin was against the rebellion and thus, she led the soldiers from Mu Family to rebel. Some others speculated that the soldiers were trying to protect Mu Fei Xin and got killed.

Because of this event, Mu Family was enraged and did whatever they could to exterminate the Second Prince's faction. This caused some politic imbalance in the court.

Nan Hua came here to find out what happened, but she didn't expect the truth to be like this. When she first read the story, she thought that men in this era were depicted to be cold blooded and only care for power and money. But many of them were actually caring to others.

Her brother, her grandfather, Long Qian Xing, and many others.

Now that she had seen Prince Yang Lu, she knew that the reason why Prince Yang Lu chose to support the rebellions was because his wife was detained. If he lost, he would also lose his wife.

Because of that, he had no other choice but to follow Hai Fa Xia's order.

For someone at his position, having feelings meant weakness.

She never expected that Prince Yang Lu would willingly have a weakness of his own and didn't manage to cover it better.

"Who are you?" the head guard asked carefully.

"Nan, the shadow guard of First Young Master Nan, greets His Highness the Second Prince," Nan Hua cupped her fist and introduced herself formally.

"First Young Master Nan?" Mu Fei Xin was startled. She had heard that they talked about the Nan Family not long ago, but she didn't think that there were actually a guard that was following from the shadow.

Prince Yang Lu looked at Nan Hua with wariness. "What do you want?"

"Stop the rebellions." Nan Hua glanced back, her clear black eyes reflected nothing of her real emotions. She didn't have any intention of staying here any longer when there were still a lot of guards of Hai Family around.

"Is it possible?"

"Young Master is outside, trying to stop Commander Hai from attacking properly."

Prince Yang Lu arched his eyebrows when he got that answer. Looking at the youth before him, he finally realized that comparing himself with his brother would always result in his utter defeat.

He laughed loudly.

"Your Highness?"

"Your Highness, is there anything wrong?"

The guard and the soldiers around were stunned when they heard Prince Yang Lu laughed. They didn't think that there was anything funny here.

"As expected, people who are loyal to Imperial Brother are much more capable than me."

Nan Hua looked at Prince Yang Lu. "If you help him, you can keep your life."

"You…" Prince Yang Lu was stunned. He had thought about it from time to time, but he also understood that being part of the Imperial Family, there was no way his Imperial Brother would not be wary of him.

He still could remember how his mother always pushed him hard, hoping that he would be able to inherit the throne someday. But when the reality truly hit him, he realized that it was impossible for him to take the throne.

Unless someone as great as Emperor Yang Zhou died young.

"Your Highness." Mu Fei Xin had moved closer and grabbed her husband's hand. She wanted to use her action to show that whatever decision he made, she would support him with all of her abilities.

"Is it possible for him not to kill me after hearing what happened here?" Prince Yang Lu asked in a low tone.

"Yes."

"How?"

"Push the blame to Hai Family." Nan Hua walked towards Hai Fa Xia and retrieved her needles. She would wash them up later and applied the poison once more. She took out a brand new set of needles and walked towards Prince Yang Lu and the others. "I'll purge your poisons."

"You have medical skills?" the head guard was skeptical as he stood before Prince Yang Lu, offering his hand first.

Nan Hua nodded. "It's necessary for Young Master."

"…Where did Great General Nan find someone so versatile like this?" the head guard was stunned.
