Flowers Bloom from Battlefield

Madam Qin would never think that after all these years, Qin Shie still could remember perfectly the difference of them. Despite their difference in age, she and her sister were highly similar which made people unable to differentiate them at all.

But, upon the first glance seeing at her, Qin Shie remarks was clear to her ears even now.

'You still looked young, Qin'er,'

At that time, she didn't pay it much attention, thinking that it was only a pleasantry given from Qin Shie. But, as the time pass, Qin Shie would refuse to use her real name and instead use her surname to call her. It was indeed really weird, but she didn't think too far before.

Now that she was starting to think about it, there was indeed a deeper meaning to it. No wonder Qin Shie never tried to get close with her again and only met occasionally. And whenever they meet, Nanglong Souka would be on the room next door doing something.

It was Qin Shie being guarded to her, but she was the one oblivious of it. Madam Qin was really done in this time. She knew that her intelligent cannot be compared with Qin Shie, but to think that the difference will be this far…

Suddenly she laughed.

"You're right… my sister, I killed her."

Yan's face turned red from anger. He hurriedly stood up from the chair as he stared unbelievingly towards Madam Qin. However, the woman seemed not to care about it anymore as she laughed eerily.

"How can she gain the emperor affection so much? Even to the point of bearing his child. I too wanted to have a good life here. But when that Lan person come, I feel really elated and knowing your real birth, I threaten her."

Madam Qin only wanted to get a better life by threatening her sister, but her sister unexpectedly did something outrageous. Without any choice left, she pushed the other party away, and her older sister fell to the pond which led to her death.

She tried to hide it, but the emperor found out rather quickly. He threatened her and forced her to live as her sister all these years. That emperor didn't want Yan to know the truth, so he didn't let her speak about this incident.

If not because of the emperor watching her whenever she met with Yan, she would never want to treat Yan that well. The emperor was truly hateful and the one she hated even more was Yan.

"My real birth, what do you meant?" Yan looked towards Madam Qin suspiciously. Was there something that he didn't know?

"Do you really think that you're my sister son?" Madam Qin mocked. "You're in fact the illegitimate son of the emperor sister."

The emperor has some brothers and sister, but he killed them all except one. Of course even if they all know that he was the one that killed them, he didn't do it openly. Using his scheme, he made them dying one by one without anyone knowing except for his beloved sister.

But fate didn't let him achieve his goal. His sister soon fell sick and died, leaving him alone.

Since his sister never married, no one would have thought that she was in fact has a son, an illegitimate son at that. The emperor loved his sister, so he spared her son and claimed him as his own. However, he told Yan when the boy was young that he would never have the chance to get the throne. Yan thought that the emperor just didn't like him, but it seemed there was a different reason.

'I'm not the emperor son?' Yan's mind turned into turmoil. He felt that the truth was really heavy.

How come he suddenly became the emperor sister son and not that emperor son? Somehow, he felt happy that he didn't have direct connection with him, but he felt that there was something weird here.

"How can I know that you're not lying?"

Madam Qin laughed. "Why don't you just come to Pan Kingdom and look for Lan Family information agency? They would surely tell you more of this."

When Madam Qin said that, Yan remembered the one who came to his mother not long before the incident. He finally understood that at that time it was that information that was leaked out, which eventually led to his real mother death.

Yan closed his eyes. He felt like he was already on the verge of fainting. All of this information hit him really hard.

Soujin held his shoulder. "She's not lying. I have investigated it too. If not, why do you think the emperor let you wreck the whole capital and yet your punishment is never too hard?"

Yan calmed himself down. What Soujin said was correct. With his reputation as a troublemaker in the capital, the emperor never punished him heavily. Although he said to him that there was no chance for him to inherit the throne, he allowed him to go around easily.

If not for the other party lenience, there was no way he could easily get away freely all these years. The emperor at most would be angry at him, but he didn't do anything more than grounding him for a long time and gave him some tutor to learn a few things.

"Wait, you investigated it?" Ming Hui turned at Soujin. Since when did their friend was being so thoughtful like this?

"Everyone that gets close to me will be investigated through fully," Soujin answered calmly. This was what he would usually do, but only for that person he made the exception. He didn't force them to continue the investigation of Jun Min birth and all since they were all really hard to find.

He would not admit he didn't manage to find leads until years passed, though. It would be better for the two of them to not know the detail.

Ming Hui was speechless. And here he thought that his friend suddenly become caring. It turned out that the fact was like this….

At the very least, couldn't you lie to us to make me felt better?

Yan didn't bother asking Soujin what was the result for the investigation. Even if he might still have a father and there were more secret to his birth, they didn't matter anymore.

Looking towards Madam Qin, he felt a bit complicated. Although it was true that the other party had been deceiving him all this time but she was really 'caring' even at the cold palace. However, knowing that she had killed his mother, there was no point in hesitating any longer.

"Soujin, what kind of punishment do you want to deploy?"

Soujin eyebrows lifted up. "You're leaving this in my hand?"

Yan nodded. "You can do whatever you want. I won't have any complaint."

"If you said so," Soujin waved his hand.

A few soldiers appeared before them, but the three of them stayed calm.

"Take her away."

"Yes."

Madam Qin turned pale. She was going to die. The men were dragging her away while she was yelling and screaming loudly.

Yan sighed. "Really, how can I get toyed with…?"

"Your luck with women is the worst," Ming Hui commented, trying to break the heavy atmosphere. "The first time you confessed, the girl is actually a man, later every time you hang out with women, they would dump you with a slap. When you try to get close with a girl, she turns out to be Jun Min sister. Now, you even got fooled by a woman."

Yan face was dark. Luckily Ming Hui didn't expose all of them, especially since some of them were truly embarrassing. As for the first one… that was him confessing to Ming Hui when he thought that the other party was a girl. At that time, Ming Hui was dressed as a different girl, which made him unable to guess that he was in fact his brother.

Soujin rolled his eyes. "I will ask my mother to find a good girl for you."

"No, thank you! I can search for her myself!" Yan immediately retorted. His eyes looked indignant as if he was asking; 'Am I looked like that poor at judging woman in your eyes?'

If the two of them know his thought, they would reply: "Of course."
