Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower

Chapter 1624 General Chi’s Departure

“Benefactor,” The monk greeted General Chi.

General Chi quickly shook his head. “I don’t do much for the temple, you don’t have to call me that way.”

The monk smiled at General Chi and put down the flower in front of the tomb of Chi Song Lian. “For me, you’re a Benefactor.”

General Chi was confused by this monk’s behavior. “This… Do you know my son?”

“Your son? No, I don’t know him.”

“Then…”

“I come here to honor the child of a general who had died for his kingdom.” The monk looked at the rock. “Death will always come when it’s already the time. You can’t do anything to change it.”

General Chi was silent. “Even if it’s done through the deeds of others?”

“Then it’s his fate. A person’s fate can’t be changed if it’s his or her real trajectory. To be able to calculate in advance and changed it meant that it’s your fate to continue to live. But if you fail to notice in advance and fell, then it’s your fate to be like that.” The monk was calm.

“Benefactor, don’t worry too much. The world might not seem to be fair, but the current world is indeed not perfect. You will be able to find the answer you’re looking for in your journey.”

General Chi frowned and watched as the monk moved away.

To be honest, he was not exactly a religious person. After all, he had killed so many people in his entire life that the blood would be able to form river.

General Chi felt that it was strange for the monk to come to him.

He had never actually gone to the temple seriously.

‘Journey.’

General Chi looked into the distance and took a deep breath. Whatever will come to him, he will accept it.

For the current him, what he wanted is nothing more than peace.

Because he had so much disappointment over the years that he didn’t know what else to do. All his hard work seemed to be so useless.

So this time, he wanted to see.

See whether he had actually done something.

“General Chi.” The few people who decided to follow him bowed when they saw him.

“I don’t know when I’ll return. Do you still want to follow me?” General Chi asked.

“Yes!”

“We’re willing to follow you everywhere you go, General Chi!”

General Chi looked at these people and sighed. “In that case, let’s go.”

“Yes, General Chi!”

…

<Fei Yang Kingdom’s Capital City, Imperial Palace>

General Chi’s departure didn’t really affect the people in the Capital City because his influence here was relatively small. However, many people were still talking about the execution that was done recently.

They were shocked by the decisive move of the prince who will directly give order for execution.

But at the same time, they also heard what these people did.

They were angry.

These people were all the family members of General Chi. They should have been the one who supported him the most, but they were instead doing things behind his back and caused a lot of troubles.

How could they not be angry?

In their opinion, these people were simply b*stards!

Most people were siding with General Chi and only a small few people of people were wiling to side in General Chi’s family member’s side. They felt that General Chi should be more benevolent because they were his family members.

But not many people were willing to speak for them.

Emperor Yang Zhou heard the report from the officials in his study room and nodded. He had already expected that one of the two princes would be able to make the correct decision to let General Chi not feel that there were truly no place for him.

At the very least, Fei Yang Kingdom was willing to follow his words in this incident because they believed in him.

It was not much, but it was good enough.

“Shangguan Yu is quite sharp,” Emperor Yang Zhou said as he looked at the report. When he saw it, he saw that Shangguan Yu was truly worthy to be someone who had done a lot of things on the back.

Shangguan Yu did most things secretly but he still left some tails for Emperor Yang Zhou to know. In fact, he suspected that this young man purposely left them behind in order to let him know some things.

But Emperor Yang Zhou didn’t try to confront Shangguan Yu about it.

Sometimes, it was enough to know about the matter secretly and there was no need to discuss it openly.

“Yes, Your Majesty.” Prime Minister Lan was helping Emperor Yang Zhou to manage the work that had been piled up.

Emperor Yang Zhou felt headache when he saw the piles of documents he had to read. But it was the price he had to pay for his willfulness to go to the frontline on his own. Since he had decided to go to the frontline by himself and watched as Zhang Xu Kingdom fell, he had to be ready for the mess that he had left behind.

For many matters, no one dared to decide on it before Emperor Yang Zhou returned.

Thus, these works were all piled up.

“Where’s Long Qian Xing?” Emperor Yang Zhou suddenly remembered that Long Qian XIng seemed to follow him to the palace.

“Replying to His Majesty, Young Master Long has already returned to Long Family Residence.”

Long Family Residence?

Emperor Yang Zhou’s lips twitched as he sighed deeply. He was still thinking about pulling that man to help him sort these things because there were too many of them. But it seemed that his plan fell through.

That dog man was only here to see his fiancée.

There was no way Long Qian Xing was willing to help him if he could spend his time with Nan Hua.

Emperor Yang Zhou shook his head. He suddenly thought about another matter and asked, “Where’s General Jun?”
