“Brother Si, Young Commander Sheng, and Small Commander Chi, I’ll be taking my leave first.” Nan Luo then dragged Nan Hua out. He didn’t want to stay in this room even for a second longer because he was traumatized with the papers.

Feng Ao Si looked at Nan Luo bitterly and hoped that Dai will finish as quickly as possible because he wouldn’t be able to finish this by himself.

Sheng Shan Lang sighed. “Having capable adjutant is quite enviable at times.”

“Indeed.”

“Let’s have two glass of beer tonight.”

“I agree.”

Chi Tan Qiang pretended that he was not there and continued to work on the paper honestly. Though, he silently wondered just what did that adjutant do to be able to work so quickly.

Even he couldn’t do it so fast.

Nan Luo walked out and looked at Nan Hua gratefully. “I’m so happy when you appeared. You wouldn’t believe that I have almost turned crazy because of those papers.”

Nan Hua nodded.

She knew how much her twin brother didn’t like it, so she helped him a bit. Anyway, helping him just required her to use her brain and hand for a few minutes.

It was not a big deal.

The two of them walked to the nearby restaurants and booked a room. Nan Hua then took out a bamboo scroll and handed it to Nan Luo. “The result of the war.”

“Wait, you manage to investigate everything so quickly?” Nan Luo was astounded.

“Yes.” Nan Hua had more people working for her and there were also some spies planted within Wei Da Kingdom’s Capital City. Even though they were all not involved in the politics, she still could make use of them to gather news.

Nan Luo opened the bamboo scroll. He skipped the first eight days because he was not interested and reached the ninth and tenth day. The so called tenth day was actually the cleaning up day, but well, there were some hard headed soldiers who were indignant and tried to rebel.

~ ninth day:

~ River General Kui declared defeat and Prince Wei Da Fan opened the gate.

~ cease fire except for the battle between General Gui and Queen Yu. After another incense of stick battle, they heard the news and General Gui killed himself in shame in front of Queen Yu and his soldiers. He’s unwilling to be the subject of Fei Yang Kingdom.

~ General Pan gave up and is now staying in prison, the same as River General Kui.

~ Several people made their escape. Below is the list of the few names that might need to be watched.

~ Below are the statistic of the commanders’ achievement.

Nan Luo stopped reading and then looked at Nan Hua with surprise. “I didn’t think that General Gui will be so loyal to Wei Da Kingdom.”

“He’s someone who’s willing to die for his kingdom.” Nan Hua took the siu may in front of her and paused a bit. “However, his family had been executed due to his unwillingness to follow Fei Yang Kingdom.”

This was in accordance to the law in this world, which might sound unfair. But one’s family was closely tied to themselves. Whatever decision they made could impact their family.

Filial piety was put on highly.

At the same time, when one made their decision, they had to consider their family. Many times, their wife, children, parents, and even brother would be affected because of their decision.

Thus for some big families, when there was a useless descendant, that descendant would be kicked out to avoid troubles.

That way, when this scourge attracted trouble, they wouldn’t be dragged along with him.

Some people even killed their own descendant if it was too much.

Thankfully, this kind of practice was quite rare because most people cared for their family a lot.

Nan Luo nodded.

A person’s decision could affect his entire family. This was precisely why it was really hard for them to move forward if their family was not supportive of them. The infighting within family was quite common in many noble families.

Besides, who could guarantee that their worldview would be the same as their family members?

They were all different people with different beliefs.

They have their own dream.

Their goal could be different.

Thus when there was a decision to make, some people couldn’t decide quickly because they knew the cost behind their action.

“Have you taken what you want to take?” Nan Luo changed the conversation.

“Not yet.” Nan Hua shook her head. The soldiers were still roaming the palace and Nan Hua didn’t want others to know about this matter, so she had to wait until the resettle plan had been finalized. It should take another day or two at most.

“We’re not going to stay here for a long time. After the Imperial Edict to change the city’s name arrived, we’ll also begin to take over the other cities around here. Those who are unwilling to give up will be eliminated and eventually, we’re going to the northern border.”

Nan Hua knew that.

The fall of the capital city didn’t mean that Wei Da Kingdom completely crumbled. They had to settle the neighboring cities and also the survivor second prince who was staying at the north area.

However, all in all, Wei Da Kingdom could be said to fall into the hand of Fei Yang Kingdom by now.

The rest were just a matter of time.

“Will you participate in the battle?” Nan Luo asked. From what he knew, his twin sister often had her other business from time to time, which was the reason why she didn’t usually follow him.

“No.” Nan Hua shook her head. “I’ll catch up with you after a few weeks.”

Nan Luo pursed his lips and nodded. He felt that his twin sister had too much things to do at times, making it hard for him to spend more time with her.

If only it was possible, he hoped she would be able to spend more time together.
