Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower

Chapter 619 Victory Celebration (2)

　　Nan Luo began to wonder just what was inside his older cousin’s mind. If he couldn’t even remember something so important, how did he manage to raise his rank until this high and even still continue growing?

At this moment, Feng Ao Kuai really couldn’t be bothered to talk with Feng Ao Si anymore. Based on what he knew; their position would be related to their current ranking in the military. As 300 men commander, he would definitely be at the back along with many other commanders.

Those at the very forefront were the generals.

The carriage stopped and Feng Ao Kuai alighted first followed by Nan Luo then Feng Ao Si. There were already a lot of people coming there with each and every single one of them had quite high ranking in the military.

Nan Luo’s eyes shone when he saw them all.

The last time he saw so many high ranking military commanders was when they were in discussion and briefing room. At that time, he was quite tense to the point that he couldn’t really remember all of them.

Now, he finally noticed quite a lot of them.

He had heard many of their stories and naturally wished to be able to have a spar against them if there was a time in the future.

”First Young Master Nan, First Young Master Feng, and Second Young Master Feng.”

”Young Master Chi.” Nan Luo noticed the person who came as Chi Song Lian. He arched his eyebrows because he remembers that Chi Song Lian was wounded terribly that he only participated in the joint war for one day. Now, only the right arm was still bandaged while he could already walk properly.

Chi Song Lian looked at the three of them. “Did you all come together?”

”Yes, we did.” Feng Ao Si was confused. Wasn’t it already quite obvious that they came together because they used one carriage.

Only Feng Ao Kuai narrowed his eyes slightly when he heard the question that Chi Song Lian uttered. For some reasons, he felt that there was something that this young man wanted from them.

”I see. I was thinking of…”

”Young Master Chi, First Young Master Feng, Second Young Master Feng, and First Young Master Nan.”

Chi Song Lian’s face immediately turned ugly when he heard that voice. However, he controlled his expression to turn it into normal as he turned around and look at the person in question.

Long Qian Xing was smiling when he looked at the four of them. “The reward ceremony will begin soon. The generals have already gathered.”

”I see. Thank you for reminding us, Young Master Long.” Chi Song Lian shot a glare towards Long Qian Xing before walking towards the main hall. He still wanted to talk more, but he felt that Long Qian Xing would definitely stop him before he could say what he wanted.

This man was always so annoying.

”Thank you for your reminder, Young Master Long.” Feng Ao Kuai cupped his fist.

Long Qian Xing nodded. His eyes landed on their weapons that they carried. “Before you enter the main hall, your weapon had to be put away by the servants guarding the door over there.”

”We can’t carry weapon?” Nan Luo was stunned.

”In order to make sure that the safety of the main hall is guaranteed, no weapon is allowed inside.” Long Qian Xing smiled faintly.

Nan Luo nodded and felt that it made sense. There were countless people who wanted Emperor Yang Zhou’s life. One of the methods that could be used to reduce the chance was to make sure that the guests who came would not bring any weapon with them.

Soon, they reached the stairs and began to climb along with the other commanders. Hou Liang was following them from quite a distance away. He actually wanted to stay close to the children but Old Master Nan had told him that he didn’t have to be overprotective.

The children were no longer that young.

They had to learn how to fend for themselves in this brutal world because Old Master Nan couldn’t stay by their side forever.

”How about the guards?”

”They’re stationed outside the main hall not far from the door. Should there be an emergency, they’ll come in to deal with it.” Long Qian Xing was patient enough to explain to these children. As someone who had frequented the palace ever since he was young, he was very familiar with these little details.

”I see.”

They all gave their weapon to the guards outside. Naturally, Nan Hua couldn’t possibly give out her needles since they were concealed deeply within her robe.

”Nan, you may come inside this time,” Long Qian Xing reminded.

”Thank you for your reminder, Young Commander Long.” Nan Hua cupped her fist in accordance to the etiquette for males.

Nan Luo beamed happily when he heard that while Feng Ao Kuai revealed a thoughtful expression. Most of the times, adjutants of low ranking commanders were not allowed inside. Only those who were powerful enough would be allowed to come inside, especially if they had their own army but still technically under a certain commander.

’Is it because of Nan Hua’s achievement of hurting a River General?’

Feng Ao Kuai looked at Nan Hua but couldn’t make anything out of her expression. He withdrew his gaze and walked inside.

With Long Qian Xing’s help, the two newbies managed to find their proper place and sat down. They were all waiting for the Emperor to arrive and start the reward ceremony.

Nan Hua didn’t stay that close to Nan Luo because she stood at the side. Unlike these commanders who could sat on a cushion, she had to stand at the side, not far from Nan Luo.

Her gaze calmly observed the commanders in the main hall.

Many of them would only made an appearance much later in the original story that followed Long Qian Xing. But today, most of them had already gathered.

Oh, some of them were still missing, though.
