Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower

Long Qian Xing glanced at the door for a moment and then ignored it and focused on Nan Hua in front of him.

Unless it was emergency, no one can stop him from looking at his wife!

A gentle smile was still hung on the corner of Long Qian Xing's lips as he continued to look in Nan Hua's direction.

He felt that even if he were to stay here for a long period of time, it would not be enough.

…

The relationship between Long Qian Xing and Nan Hua was harmonious.

The servants were also happy about this.

It didn't take long for them to arrange for the marriage between Lou and Chu Yue, especially when they heard that Long Qian Xing and Nan Hua planned to depart to the north for a short trip.

To be honest, they didn't understand why Long Qian Xing wanted to go.

After all, there was nothing interesting.

But since the Master wanted to go, the servants just had to follow their master's order.

Old Madam Long looked at her grandson speechlessly.

"Do you really have to travel all around the world before you're satisfied?" Old Madam Long complained helplessly.

She felt that her children and grandchildren really liked to travel all around the world. If it was possible, she really wanted them to stay in Cheng City all the time. But since they wanted to go, then she could only let them go.

"Grandma, I'll come back in Spring and then spent the next half a year in Cheng City," Long Qian Xing promised.

He would not let Nan Hua stayed in the north all the time. When her pregnancy started to interrupt her daily lives, it would be better for them to stay in Cheng City with many people serving her.

While Long Qian Xing knew that Nan Hua might not need it, he didn't want things to be too hard for his wife.

He wanted to prepare the best of everything for his wife.

For this reason, he was ready to go back to Cheng City once they have watched Emperor Yang Zhou's inauguration and ceremony. If he was not wrong, Emperor Yang Zhou was in the process of merging Qi Xi Kingdom with Fei Yang Kingdom.

He didn't know the specific details of how far it has progressed. However, Long Qian Xing knew very well that it would take some time.

Conquering the cities for the other kingdoms were done after they had finished the battles. Afterwards, they have a long time to transform everything and made sure these people who become officials were truly serving Fei Yang Kingdom.

After all, some people might pretend on the surface that they were loyal to Fei Yang Kingdom but in truth, they were hiding some ghosts plan in their mind. It took some time for the administration matters to be handed over to Fei Yang Kingdom completely.

It could be said that during this period of time, many people in Fei Yang Kingdom were busy.

The date when they conquered a kingdom were noted as the time when the kingdom choose to surrender to Fei Yang Kingdom.

But the aftermath required a lot of effort.

The time when Fan Yi Kingdom and Qi Xi Kingdom were defeated by Fei Yang Kingdom happened one after another in a short period of time.

As the result, the officials had more work to do.

They have to integrate two fallen kingdoms' cities into Fei Yang Kingdom at the fastest speed possible.

Anyway, Long Qian Xing didn't meddle in this matter.

He left Emperor Yang Zhou to take care of Fei Yang Kingdom's matters. In Cheng City, Long Qian Xing finally received the news he wanted to hear.

Shangguan Xiao had come back.

And the next day after Shangguan Xiao's return to Cheng City, Long Qian Xing paid him a visit.

"It's been a while, General Xing." Shangguan Xiao smiled when he saw Long Qian Xing coming to see him. He had expected that Long Qian Xing would come and find him the moment he returned to Cheng City.

Long Qian Xing smiled. "Indeed, General Shangguan. How have you been during the time when you're in the east area?"

"I'm doing very well." Shangguan Xiao chuckled. "There are not many people who are willing to make trouble now."

The East area consisted of many powerful families, each of them had their own armies and only gathered together for the sake of profit. In the past, they were able to take advantage of the situation and ruled the area where they were and claimed to be loyal to Shi Long Kingdom.

But now that they were under Fei Yang Kingdom, many reform had to be done.

In the past three or so years, Shangguan Xiao has been busy cleaning up the remnants of these rebellious families.

They might not be related to Shi Long Kingdom's Emperor, but they were part of the local forces. These people were used to be domineering and do whatever they wanted, which resulted in them being unwilling when Fei Yang Kingdom promulgated the laws.

So Shangguan Xiao and Long Ao Ming worked together in different places to suppress the flames of rebellions that has been raised several times.

If one had to say, there were more rebellions in the east area compared to the rebellions in other places.

It was really tiring.

These stubborn and greedy people would not stop until they reached their goal, so Shangguan Xiao had to work hard.

Now that the situation had somehow stabilize, he took the time to go back to Cheng City.

"Are you going to the new capital city?" Long Qian Xing asked.

"Yes." Shangguan Xiao stretched his hand and sighed. "I have to represent the Shangguan Family there and also find a good woman to marry."

To be honest, Shangguan Xiao didn't really want to get married but many people were already urging him. This included his older brother who suddenly sent him a letter, telling him that if he didn't try to find a girl, he would kidnap him to meet someone.

Shangguan Xiao: "…"

He felt that other people were too anxious for him!
