Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower

“What?”

Hearing that piece of news, Feng Ao Si even thought that he was dreaming. Looking at the serious expression on Nan Luo, he knew for sure that it was actually the truth.

This piece of news was like a clap of thunder in the clear day.

“I thought that I’ll be able to cooperate with my younger brother again.” Feng Ao Si was utterly disappointed.

Ever since Feng Ao Kuai rejected being his strategist, Feng Ao Si always waited for the moment the two of them would be ordered to work together. It was one of the few times he could see his younger brother looked so defeated but couldn’t do anything about it.

Being bullied by his younger brother so much, Feng Ao Si naturally also wanted to see the other party being defeated.

Even if it was only occasionally.

But hearing that Feng Ao Kuai would not come, Feng Ao Si felt a bit disappointed. He should just accept that he would only cooperate with Nan Luo.

Behind Feng Ao Si, Dai, his strategist, rolled his eyes. He was absolutely sure that if Feng Ao Kuai could avoid having to work together with Feng Ao Si, Feng Ao Kuai will definitely take that chance.

“It’s not certain that we’ll be grouped together too.” Nan Luo was speechless.

He felt that Feng Ao Si’s way of thinking was getting more and more outrageous. Couldn’t he think that they might not even be in the same group before hoping so highly that he will work together with Feng Ao Kuai?

“Oh, you’re right.”

There were a lot of commanders here. It was almost impossible to be sure that they would work together.

Feng Ao Si completely forgot about that.

Nan Luo glanced at his older cousin and sighed deeply. “Are there any other young commanders? I think we all can have some talk together.”

Due to their ages, these young commanders usually liked to gather together if they were placed together for the same war. Anyway, the battle is not starting yet, so they all still have some free time aside from preparing their soldiers.

“Oh, Young Commander Sheng is helping General Chi to prepare the soldiers. He also suggested the same to gather during dinner.” Feng Ao Si grinned.

Feng Ao Si and Young Commander Sheng, Sheng Shan Lang, had good relationship with each other. After they were grouped together, the two of them would cooperate again from time to time if they met at the battlefield.

Thus, their relationship was somewhat like brothers.

“Oh, you’re still in contact with Young Commander Sheng? I thought that since you’re deployed in different area, you wouldn’t have much contact with each other.” Nan Luo was a bit surprised.

Feng Ao Si shrugged his shoulder. He looked right and left and then lowered his head. “I was near his location and saved his life a few months ago. In exchange, he said that he’ll introduce his sister to me.”

Nan Luo nearly tripped on the air when he heard what his older cousin said.

Looking at Feng Ao Si bewildered expression, Nan Luo clearly never expected that Feng Ao Si would agree with such ridiculous reward. But then again, for these commanders, they would just symbolically treat the other party and when they needed each other in the battlefield, they will help if they could.

It was just…

Sheng Shan Lang was from a commoner background, right?

It meant that his sister used to be a villager and would have different habits compared to his older cousin. Would Feng Ao Si be interested in a village woman?

There were differences between women who were raised in boudoir and those outside. Nan Luo actually doubted that Feng So Si will even think about this matter.

Though, if they were suitable, background didn’t really matter.

They just had to work on their differences.

Also, isn’t it too early?

‘Oh, I forget that Brother Si is already 21 years old…’

Looking at how Feng Ao Si behaved, no one will think that he was already 21 years old. He was still as stupid as he used to be when he was a teenager.

“Brother Si, please don’t just agree with everyone who want to introduce you to their family’s girl, ok?” Nan Luo advised.

They were all young commanders with great potential. A lot of people wanted to tie them into their families and had already extended many invitations. Both Nan Luo and Feng Ao Kuai were skillful in terms of deflecting their attack.

But he had the feeling that Feng Ao Si will never be able to do that….

“Uh… Dai is usually the one who talk to those nobles for me.” Feng Ao Si scratched the back of his head sheepishly. “But I can’t really refuse Shan Lang’s request.”

Nan Luo: “…”𝒐𝑽𝓵xt.𝗇𝓔t

It’s over.

His older cousin will definitely be thoroughly used by the other party if this continued.

He turned to look at Dai, who also had a helpless expression on his face. It seemed as if he had long given up on Feng Ao Si. Even, he became Feng Ao Si’s strategist simply because the pay was too great.

Even if he was being tortured by Feng Ao Si’s whim, the pay and the treatment was ridiculously good.

So Dai gritted his teeth and endured.

Nan Luo sighed and patted Feng Ao Si’s shoulder. “Remember to call me and Ao Kuai when you’re about to meet her.”

“Oh, ok.” Feng Ao Si nodded, not understanding why Nan Luo was so worried about him.

In his opinion, Sheng Shan Lang will never harm him. If his sister was good, he didn’t mind getting married to her…

Though, Feng Ao Si honestly didn’t want to get married so early.

But his grandfather had already talked about it to him and his mother even sent several letters, saying that she wanted to introduce several smart girls. He could only helplessly reply that he still couldn’t go back.

If Dai were to know Feng Ao Si’s reply, he would have scoffed.

Couldn’t go back, my a**!

Feng Ao Si could definitely ask for a break since he had been at the battlefield for so many years almost without any break. His soldiers were already itching for a break, but their commander was so perverted and energetic that they could only grit their teeth, following their commander to fight again and again.

At the very least, after this war with Wei Da Kingdom, they might be able to have a short break.
