Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower

Chapter 198 - Trying To Scheme Against Her?

General Shangguan looked at Chi Song Lian. "I haven't received reply, but I presume that he wouldn't reject."

Chi Song Lian: "…"

Long Qian Xing chuckled. He had already expected this. General Shangguan was known for being domineering and powerful. For someone like him, it was hard for him to be placed under someone else's order.

Because of his headstrong personality, he was proven to be a headache. There were many people who chose to just leave him be and never bothered with him. They gave him freedom since he was indeed powerful enough.

Feng Ao Si sighed and felt that his father was really too weak. It would be impossible for him to reject General Shangguan.

General Shangguan swept his gaze across the people. There were several people who came with Chi Song Lian and Feng Ao Si while Long Qian Xing came alone. He waved his hand. "The others may come to watch or stay here. Second Madam Shangguan will provide you with enough food and entertainment."

Second Madam Shangguan's body flinched. She knew that General Shangguan never liked her and always treated her very formally. It was very hard for her to get close to this valiant general. Even after all this year, she was still called with her formal title instead of other title.

"General Shangguan, are we going to fight right away?" Feng Ao Si's lips twitched. He didn't have any warm up yet.

"Yes."

The four of them: "…"

They could only follow General Shangguan as he walked to the field.

Nan Hua naturally followed with Feng Ao Kuai and Nan Luo beside her. The three of them chose to watch since they were not close to anyone from Shangguan Family.

"First Miss Nan, would you like to stay behind?"

Turning her head, Nan Hua saw Shangguan Die stood there. Dressed in beautiful jade colored dress, she looked like a fairy that descended to earth.

"First Miss Shangguan," Nan Hua greeted back. "This one would like to watch Young Commander Feng."

Shangguan Die's eyes flashed as she looked at Feng Ao Si, who was leading the other three. It seemed that she had forgotten to calculate the fact that Nan Hua might even follow Feng Ao Si to the field.

"Does First Miss Nan liked martial arts greatly?" Shangguan Die asked, her tone filled with scorn.

Nan Hua naturally knew that Shangguan Die was trying to retain her in this main hall and not follow the others.

Why?

Her eyes darkened slightly. This event did happen in the novel but at that time, Nan Luo was not present because he was recuperating and embarrassed. It was a huge uproar in the women's part but the males were uninterested because they were focused on the battle.

It was not written in the story clearly, so Nan Hua didn't know the exact details.

However, she had no intention of staying here and play with their games.

"First Miss Shangguan is right. I do like to watch and cheer on my cousin." Nan Hua nodded then turned around.

Nan Luo couldn't understand their conversation but he instinctively felt that Shangguan Die was not a good person. Just from the fact that Shangguan Die kept on creating trouble back then had already made Nan Luo unwilling to even interact with her.

"Hua'er, let's go."

"Yes."

Feng Ao Kuai gave a fleeting gaze at Shangguan Die and silently noted it down in his heart. if he could help his cousin, he would do it in the future. For now, he better guarded her well.

Shangguan Die was clearly displeased. "First Miss Nan loves to watch martial arts more than talking about poems. I should have told my friends about First Miss Nan's preferences so that they wouldn't make a mistake when interacting with you."

It was a threat.

In this era, the most important thing for women was their reputation and of course their man.

Nan Hua didn't have to worry about not having any husband in the future because she had a marriage agreement with Long Qian Xing. However, if her reputation in the society plummet, it was clear that she wouldn't be able to live well in the future. There will be many people who would willingly make things difficult for her.

"Many thanks for your reminder, First Miss Shangguan. However, this one was simply unfamiliar with the way in Shangguan Family. It's rare to be able to see General Shangguan makes a move, how can I bear to miss this chance?" Nan Hua twisted the words, making it so that she was simply unfamiliar with Shangguan Die and thus unwilling to stay here.

Moreover, the ladies clearly could rarely see General Shangguan. What was wrong with them wanting to treasure this chance?

Shangguan Die's face turned red in anger. To think that a mere young girl dared to go against her. It seemed that she really had to teach the other party a lesson.

However, the only young ladies here were only her and her step sister. The other families didn't bring their young misses. Well, Long Family didn't have any young miss while Chi Family and Feng Family young misses were not in the Capital City.

The others who came here were the younger young masters from Chi Family who clearly more interested in the battle.

"Please excuse me, Miss Shangguan."

Second Madam Shangguan also stood up but she couldn't find any words to refute. She could only watch as Nan Hua walked into the field.

"Mother." Shangguan Die's expression twisted. Right now, her beautiful face looked horrible as she was trying hard to restrain her anger. "What should we do?"

"Wait." Second Madam Shangguan snorted. She sat back down and looked at the direction of the field at the back courtyard. "I don't believe that she'll stay there forever. We still have a chance."

"Yes, Mother."

At the side table, Shangguan Mi, the second young miss of Shangguan Family was sitting calmly. She was drinking the tea and erased her presence as much as possible, watching the commotion in front of her.. All that could be seen from her eyes was nothing more than vicious glint that was soon covered with the gentle and timid gaze.
