Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower

Chapter 446 Reasons

Shangguan Die turned around, not wanting to face Nan Xin anymore. “Right, everything is just rumor because of how much Official Nan loved his new wife. He’s even willing to suffer the beatings for him to have his concubine rose in status to be his legal wife.”

At this moment, Nan Xin really couldn’t stand to chat with Shangguan Die anymore.

It was not a secret that in order for a man to have their concubine risen to the rank of a wife, they would have to suffer beatings and pay an appropriate amount of money. After all, a man who had once married suddenly asked for his woman to rise in status would be the same as trampling the previous woman’s dignity.

It was also because of that, that not many men were willing to have their concubine rise to be their wife.

If it was another person from outside who got married to be their new wife, that would be a different story.

”Please excuse me, First Young Miss Shangguan.”

”Alright, Second Young Miss Nan.”

Shangguan Die snorted as she watched Nan Xin ran away with her tail tucked behind her back. It was clear that Nan Xin wouldn’t dare to create any trouble anytime soon with her timid personality.

Wait, she was shameless and not timid given that she was facing the right person.

Nan Hua looked at Shangguan Die and opened her mouth, “First Young Miss Shangguan is very valiant. I do wonder what First Young Miss Shangguan would want.”

Shangguan Die looked at Nan Hua deeply. She had thought that Nan Hua could settle that problem with Nan Xin herself but this young lady was so lazy that she only strike once in a while. If that continued, it would take a long time but Nan Xin would still lose.

There was no way Nan Hua would lose.

She only intervened because she had heard of something. “Young Miss Nan, I wonder whether I can have the honor of having you check on my illness?”

Nan Hua arched her eyebrows. There shouldn’t be many people who spread news about her real skill in medicine and the number of people who knew about this matter was also exceedingly low.

It was all because Nan Hua had no intention of publicizing this matter.

”I wonder where you heard about this, First Young Miss Shangguan.”

Shangguan Die smiled then stretched her hand to grab Nan Hua’s hand. She leisurely write on top of Nan Hua’s palm. This was one of the few methods that they could employ if they wanted to talk about some secret.

Great General Shangguan.

The name caused Nan Hua’s eyes to flicker. She knew that her grandfather knew Great General Shangguan, but she didn’t expect that her grandfather would even leak out the fact that she studied medicine to the other party. After all, Shangguan Family and Nan Family had some conflict.

Just some childish conflicts, though.

”Do you trust me?”

”I don’t have many choices.” Shangguan Die scoffed. She was being blunt as she had already visited a lot of doctors and many people said the same thing. Even after using various types of medicine, her face still looked as horrible as it could be.

Nan Hua didn’t immediately answer.

”Also, I didn’t approach you here just for this.” Shangguan Die lowered her voice so that other noble ladies couldn’t hear them. She had done this after Nan Xin left because there was no need to attract other people’s attention anymore.

”Yes?”

”There.” Shangguan Die pointed to the side where there was a young lady who sat near the edge of the area that belonged to the women.

Nan Hua located the person and noticed that it was Shangguan Mi. Her gaze deepened when she noticed the reason why she was over there.

…

Meanwhile.

Nan Luo and Feng Ao Kuai quickly joined in the area where Old Master Nan was staying. The old man was looking at his two grandsons helplessly because their gaze lingered to the side where Nan Hua was staying.

”You wouldn’t be able to pay attention to her forever, Brats.”

”Yes, Grandfather.”

”After Lantern Festival, we’re going to the border. The area where you’ll be assigned to is close to Shangguan Xiao’s area, so you need to learn to cooperate with each other.”

Shangguan Xiao.

It was the name of the Second Young Commander Shangguan and also the man who had participated in a certain training with Feng Ao Si and the other two back then. The two of them turned their head and saw a young man stood not far from them. He was wearing bright purple robe and looked elegant. However, the smile and elegant attitude he showed couldn’t hide the ruthless glint beneath his smiling face.

”Second Young Master Shangguan,” The two of them greeted the other party.

Shangguan Xiao laughed and waved his hand. “There’s no need to be so polite to me. I have already become friends with your older brother, so naturally you’re all also my friends.”

Feng Ao Si was speechless.

When did he actually become friends with Shangguan Xiao? The only time he could remember interacting with this annoying person was when he was being tortured in that place and had no other choice but to train hard every single day.

It was hell.

”Alright, Second Young Master Shangguan,” Feng Ao Kuai responded politely.

Shangguan Xiao nodded. He was seated not far from the three of them because of his grandfather’s status, which was similar to Old Master Nan.

”This is my older brother, Shangguan Xian.”

There was a young man who looked slightly older than Shangguan Xiao sitting behind him with similar countenance to his younger brother. Similar with Shangguan Xiao, Shangguan Xian also roamed on the battlefield for a long time. In fact, Shangguan Xiao was close to reach his father’s rank, which was a general.

He was known as the genius many years ago when he successfully participated in many battles.
