"You…"

"Isn't it true?" Long Qian Xing asked once more, his tone was lazy and filled with indifference. Even though he was still smiling like how a gentleman would, his eyes were never showing any warmth nor mirth. In fact, he looked scarier than a person who would show their anger and displease in their face.

He would never do that. It was always hard for anyone to read his expression and guess what he was currently thinking.

Long Xu Nian glared at Long Qian Xing. "Is that how you treat your older sister?"

"Oh, why not?" Long Qian Xing looked at Long Xu Nian carelessly. He curled up his lips to form a smirk. "Don't claim familiar relationship only when it's convenient for you."

"You, find out what happened!"

"Unfortunately, I have no such power." Long Qian Xing looked at his older sister with an amused expression. "The power in this residence is in Grandmother's hand. I can't move outside her will."

That was a lie, a blatant lie.

However, Long Xu Nian couldn't expose it. As he was already a commander and had his own army, Long Qian Xing naturally had some people whom he had tasked to protect him. It meant that it was impossible for him to not have any say in Long Family Residence.

But his current status in the family was still quite low on the outside. He still has his grandmother and several of his father's concubines in the residence. The one who usually took charge of the residence was the women, so how could he have any say in this matter?

Thus, his words were not incorrect.

"I should have given you more doses," Long Xu Nian spat out coldly. The memory of her marriage was quite bad because there were many things that didn't go in accordance to what she wanted. Not to mention…

Her eyes landed on her younger brother's arm. From the way Long Qian Xing still could move it perfectly, it was clear that his arm was not wounded like what she had instructed the servants. How useless.

Long Qian Xing chuckled. His eyes were chilling cold. "Why don't you try, my dear Jie Jie?"

He had tolerated her for so long. Does she think that he would continue to allow her to harm him now that she was no longer part of the Long Family? Since she had left the residence, he would never give her the chance to hurt him anymore.

He was not the weak brat who would care for someone who tried to kill him many times.

"You…"

Long Xu Nian shuddered when she saw the cold gaze on Long Qian Xing's eyes. In her entire lifetime, Long Qian Xing had always been indifferent and hard to read to her. But in that very moment, she could clearly see that Long Qian Xing was so cold, as if he was aiming to take her life.

He had never directed his killing intent at her before because she's his older sister.

But now, it was clear that Long Qian Xing didn't want to treat her so politely anymore after she was married away.

The thoughts caused Long Xu Nian's eyes to turn chilling cold.

"Grandmother had been waiting. Would you make her wait any longer?" Long Qian Xing asked in an indifferent tone and turned around.

Long Xu Nian snorted. She watched her younger brother's back as he walked inside while her heart was in turmoil. Her face was destroyed because of the herbs that she mixed was wrong. Not only that, she found out that there was someone who swapped her make up to one that she was incompatible with during her wedding and added some malicious substance. ????????????????ℯ????????. ????૦m

That was the reason why her flesh rotted.

Cutting it off made her face looked so ugly. Even though she had tried her best to use medicine to cure her wound, could she make her flesh grew back? Even if it was possible, the scar would never leave her.

This made her thoroughly annoyed.

'But I'll not let you off, Long Qian Xing!'

Time passed quietly. The second month of spring passed without any eventful events. Nan Hua focused on her training and got another one of her teeth fell off. Nan Luo was even laughing when he heard the weird voice Nan Hua made from time to time.

It was only after Old Master Nan said that Nan Luo even cried that he stopped trying to make fun of Nan Hua. If Old Master Nan leaked out all of his embarrassing scene to his twin sister, how could he have face in front of her in the future?

But peace would not last.

At least, not in this turbulent era.

"There's a rebellion?" Nan Luo looked at his grandfather when they were resting after training. He felt his arm sore after contending against Nan Hua for some time. His eyebrows furrowed. "Why is that something that you have to handle, Grandpa?"

They got an edict that Old Master Nan had to go to the battlefield to take care of the rebellion that occurred not far from there. The distance was not far from the capital city, which meant that they had to deploy whoever was free.

Old Master Nan was included.

"I've been resting for some time, so those old fogeys are waiting for me to leave." Old Master Nan's eyes were cold. He had been thinking of getting some rest in the Capital City and trained his grandchildren until they grew up. Who would have thought that his peace would be disturbed so soon?

Nan Luo scowled. "But you're wounded, Grandpa."

"Even if I'm wounded, they didn't want me to stay quiet here."

Just the mere presence of Old Master Nan in the Capital City was already more than enough to put most people on guard. They would never know what he was planning. Not to mention, his rank as the general was not for show as there were thousands of people who would move with just his words.

"That's not fair!"

Old Master Nan laughed. He patted his grandson's head. "You should stay in the Capital City and train hard. I'll be back before you know it."

"But I want to come…"

"No."

"Why?"

"You're not strong enough." Old Master Nan looked at his grandson and sighed. If only Nan Luo was a bit older, he would have no hesitation to bring the brat with him. But with Nan Luo was only 9 years old and still very young… he couldn't bring himself to bring the young brat with him.

Nan Luo wanted to protest but Nan Hua tugged his sleeve. "Hua'er?"

"We'll stay here."

"Here? Oh…" Nan Luo then recalled Nan Shu Cheng and the others as his eyes turned exceptionally cold. Now that he thought about it, those people should be itching to find a way to bring him and Nan Hua back to Nan Family Residence, right?

He would never give them the chance to do that.

"Don't worry, I'll not let them bring you back to that rotten residence." Nan Luo scowled.

Whenever he thought of that residence, he felt incredibly repulsed that he wanted to vomit. However, he would not do that because it would only tarnish his image.

"You can go to the academy to practice too." Old Master Nan looked at his grandson and sighed. "Remember to not create any trouble."

"I won't."

"Be a good boy."

"Yes…"

Soon, Old Master Nan departed, leaving the two children in the big residence. Their routing would not change since there was nothing else they could do. Training might be tiring and boring, but it was the only method for someone to grow stronger.

Time passed swiftly and soon it was the end of spring.

Nan Hua was not that worried for Old Master Nan.

The rebellions this time was actually just a small rebellions and it was also one that Long Qian Xing would participate in. In this rebellions, Long Qian Xing would also meet with a promising individual who held on the city even under the barrage of attack. He didn't use solders but ordinary citizens who were adamant to protect their homeland.

By making use of strategy and encouragement, he forcefully held on. However, it was not without a price. Countless number of people will die in this battle, leaving their loved ones.

At the same time, this would complete the card.

Military, economy, and politics.

Three youths who were exceptionally exceptional in each field would gather together. All have different background and life but some incidents brought them together. They were all working under one person: Emperor Yang Zhou.

'Or should I say, Long Qian Xing.'

The one who gathered them was obviously the main lead. As for why he worked under Emperor Yang Zhou… the reason was simply because Long Qian Xing hated politics and the countless schemes that come with it.. Thus, he chose to work together with Emperor Yang Zhou even if he was the one who often worked behind the scene and do everything.
