Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower

It didn’t even take three days for Emperor Yang Zhou to hear the news of victory with General Huan killed by Long Qian Xing.

At the same time, Da Yi City was naturally freed from the constant struggle they had undergone for a long time.

These officials who wanted to run away were dealt with efficiently.

Long Qian Xing handed this matter to the people in Da Yi City because he didn’t want to get involved.

Duan Shang Yi, who was already vexed with these people’s deeds was the first one to step forward and cleaned up these annoying officials.

At the same time, Long Qian Xing and Nan Hua met with General Duan and talked with him for a long time. General Duan appreciated their help and thanked them. This will help Da Yi City to become much more peaceful in the days to come.  𝗈𝑣𝑙xt.𝑪𝔬𝓂

Through this conversation, General Duan also said that he would be willing to serve Fei Yang Kingdom well. At the same time, the situation in Da Yi City was made clear to Long Qian Xing and Nan Hua.

Long Qian Xing appreciated this general even more.

“General Duan is a great person.” Long Qian Xing felt that he might not be able to do as well as General Duan when faced with the people in Da Yi City. Being mocked and yet he was the one who fought for the sake of these people…

*sigh*

If it was him, it was estimated that he would have long wanted to whip these white eyed wolf b*stard to death.

Nan Hua nodded. “General Duan is indeed a great person.”

“Where’s Long Xu?” Long Qian Xing noticed that his subordinate was missing and frowned. It was rare for Long Xu to move on his own without following his order. Though, he didn’t actually care that much.

After all, Long Xu is also a commander and can do other things when needed.

Long Qian Xing didn’t really need him to stay by his side forever either. 

“Replying to General Xing, Commander Long Xu is paying a visit to Blacksmith Duan.”

‘He’s paying a visit to Blacksmith Duan? There shouldn’t be any order I make.’ Long Qian Xing thought in his heart and his legs brought him to pay a visit to General Duan’s second son, Duan Shang Shao, who was also the blacksmith in Da Yi City.

Nan Hua also knew this Blacksmith Duan since she had ordered a lot of traps to be placed in Xia Mountain. 

When they reached the blacksmith workshop, Long Qian Xing saw Duan Shang Shao, who was resting on the side.

“General Xing.” Duan Shang Shao quickly stood up.

“I have heard of your deeds during the war. You did great.” Long Qian Xing patted Duan Shang Shao’s shoulder.

“I’m only doing what I’m supposed to do to protect my hometown.” Duan Shang Shao was humble. He didn’t really do much and only helped a little bit with the weapon that had been prepared.

Though, he had to go through some modification process so that those heavy things could be carried up.

Long Qian Xing nodded. He had heard the details and knew that Duan Shang Shao was working really hard. At the same time, he realized that Duan Shang Shao’s talent in making weapons was really good.

“Have you seen my subordinate, Commander Long Xu?”

“Commander Long Xu is helping out at the back with my sister.” Duan Shang Shao looked at Long Qian Xing with a perplexed expression. “Is this not your order, General Xing?”

Duan Shang Shao’s sister?

Long Qian Xing arched his eyebrows but didn’t bother to check on it. Instead, he collected some information about Duan Shang Shao’s sister and found out that this woman was a widow and lived with Duan Shang Shao because she was not accepted at her older brother’s house. 

She’s a concubine born and her father didn’t have time to take care of his own household and feared that she would also be implicated by his bad reputation.

In the end, Duan Shi Nian, Duan Shang Shao’s older half sister, stayed with him in this workshop. 

“She didn’t look like a bad girl,” Lou, Long Qian Xing’s other manservant, commented in the end.

Long Qian Xing nodded.

He would not stop his men from finding partner on their own too. Anyway, Long Xu was no longer young. If he wanted to start a family, he will not stop him. 

But of course, the premise was that he still did his work well.

“After he’s done, we’ll depart right away.”

“Yes, General Xing.”

<Zhang Xu Kingdom’s Capital City>

The matter of the rebellions and the continuous loss kept on ringing on Emperor Zhang Hou Tian’s ears. It was to the point that he wanted to smash the table because it was very annoying.

As the Emperor chosen by the Heaven, how come he kept on being humiliated by those b*stard?

He couldn’t accept it anyway. 

“Your Majesty, General Huan had died in the hand of General Xing! Prime Minister Lei couldn’t even hold him back and allowed General Xing to go far away and caused another devastating loss. Your Majesty, please give us your words!”

The officials were filled with heartache when they heard this piece of news.

“There are many rebellions that happened and Prime Minister Lei didn’t even do anything.”

“Your Majesty, you have to do something.”

By now, they couldn’t withstand it anymore.

Even the rebellions caused by the famine was now tied to Prime Minister Lei. 

The court was really messy. 

Emperor Zhang Hou Tian was also filled with annoyance. Even if Prime Minister Lei helped him to get the throne, there were also many others who were more competent and worked for him on this court.

Why should he keep Prime Minister Lei when that man had no more use for him?

“Send my order down. Call Prime Minister Lei back and hand the highest power of military to General Min. Sent him to the frontline as fast as possible.”
