He sighed and chose not to talk about this anymore. Even though he knew that it was true, he didn't want to say it in front of his granddaughter.

"Don't put your life in danger, all right?"

Nan Hua looked at her grandfather's earnest expression and slowly nodded. The mission was not dangerous at all was what she actually wanted to say. However, she couldn't bring herself to say it when she saw her grandfather's gaze.

Gaze that was filled with love, comfort, and worry.

It was a luxury that she would have never experienced if she hadn't come to this world.

"Hua'er, let's go to the field. Luo and Brother Ao Si must have been training hard. We can't be left behind," Feng Ao Kuai suggested.

Nan Hua looked at Hou Liang, who was standing guard, and Tong, who was waiting for instruction. She understood that her grandfather wanted her to leave him be because there were some matters that he had to talk with them.

"Yes."

The two of them slipped away and rushed to the field.

Nan Hua turned her head back once more, her black obsidian eyes gleamed slightly. There were still many matters that Old Master Nan wished to hide from her and her siblings. But the day would soon come when he would tell them the truth by himself. She was sure of that.

With that in mind, Nan Hua turned around and continued her steps.

*sigh*

Old Master Nan looked at Hou Liang. "Don't let her know our dispute with many other families."

"Yes, Master."

There were a lot of people who were dissatisfied with the large land that Old Master Nan got along with his title because of his war achievement. When winning a large war and achieved high achievement, they would get a considerable sum of money, land, and also rise in nobility title.

By now, Old Master Nan was already a duke, which could be said to be one of the highest ranks within the entire kingdom. If he was given another title, it would be grand duke, which might even put him comparable with princes.

However, Old Master Nan doubted that it would be possible for him to even earn more title considering how his old friends were all stall in this title.

As he had earned a lot from wars, many people were jealous of him and wished for his downfall. That way, they would be able to seize his land and business. If they could get a hand of this large meat pie, they were sure that they would be able to thrive and get rich faster.

After all, Nan Shu Cheng was stupid and didn't look like he would be able to gain much achievement in his life.

Some others… have personal conflict with him.

Old Master Nan definitely didn't want to let his granddaughter be the one to bear the brunt of his mistake. He would not never be able to forgive himself if he ended up putting his granddaughter in harm's way because of his stupidity.

"Also, make some arrangement."

"Master?"

"Prepare the present for that princess." Old Master Nan's eyes gleamed when he thought about this. Soon, those people would make sure of this chance to make a move against the other kingdoms.

War would break out.

"Yes, Master."

Time passed quietly.

At the end of Autumn, they received invitation from Old Madam Long to pay a visit to Long Family Residence to celebrate Long Qian Xing's fourteenth birthday. It was weird that outsiders would be invited, but it was actually a small dinner.

Of course, the reason why Old Madam Long invited them was because she wanted to see Nan Hua again.

Since neither one of them had anything better to do, they decided to agree.

Even though Old Master Nan opposed to this vehemently, they didn't listen to him and came to Long Family Residence. Old Master Nan chose not to come because he would only end up quarreling with his old friend again.

"Happy birthday, Brother Long," Nan Hua greeted when they were inside. She was dressed in light peach dress for today. Even though she didn't make any attempt to make her look more presentable, this was already more than enough for someone at her status to show that she did care for this event.

Long Qian Xing was wearing dark brown clothes that suited him greatly as it accentuated his appearance. He looked at Nan Hua with a helpless smile. "Thank you, Hua'er."

"Young Master Long, you don't seem to be so happy?" Nan Luo glared. He was the one who should have been unhappy because they were here to see him. Even though he had been thinking of many things to make sure that they could stay away from this annoying man, they eventually ended up here again.

They didn't have any good reason to reject Old Madam Long's invitation, so they ended up coming here.

Long Qian Xing smiled. "I'm elated that you all could come here."

Internally, he only wished to ask his grandmother whether he was her blood related grandson or not. From the way it looked like, his grandmother liked his fiancée more than him. If they got married in the future, he felt that his grandmother might even forget him for real.

"First Young Master Feng, Second Young Master Feng, Young Master Nan, and Young Miss Nan," Song Chuan came forward and greeted formally. The others quickly responded to greet him too.

"Young Master Song. There's no need to be so polite." Feng Ao Kuai's eyes landed on the book that Song Chuan was carrying. It was a new recently published book that talked about how to govern and some key points that was discussed philosophically.

Song Chuan noticed Feng Ao Kuai's interest and smiled at the young boy in front of him. "Have you read this, Second Young Master Feng?"

"Yes. My Grandfather give me to read but there are some things that I didn't quite understand. Would you mind if I ask you, Young Master Song?"

"I won't mind."
