Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower

Chapter 1555 Reshuffle in Liang City



"Bring it in." Nan Hua didn't raise her head and continued with her work. Since she was here, it was also time for her to settle some problems. This way, she didn't have to come here again for several months in the future.

For some reason, Nan Hua felt that she had truly become the leader of an organization that had a lot of work.

It was really annoying and tiring.

Why did she want to become the leader in the first place?

Even if it was just a shadow leader, it didn't erase the fact that there were a lot of works that she had to do.

Nan Si bowed and put the plates down on Nan Hua's table. He then retreated a few steps so that he would not see the content of Nan Hua's work. After being with Nan Hua for a long time, he naturally knew that there were things that he was better left unknown.

Knowing too much sometimes would only place him in a more dangerous situation.

"Has His Majesty settled the empress' family?" Nan Hua asked. She guessed that Emperor Yang Zhou should settle them soon, but because she was holed in this place, she didn't have the time to pay a visit.

"Yes. Lang Family is completely destroyed and not a single one of them survived." Nan Si didn't have much feeling when he gave his report. Those who were still within the Lang Family had been eliminated and couldn't possibly come out again in this life.

It was safe to say that the power that was previously hold by the Lang Family were now ownerless.

Others would definitely take advantage of this.

"Jian Family was half destroyed. General Chi's former wife was married to Ku Family and have children there. Since she's technically not part of Jian Family anymore on the basis that married daughter is like thrown water, she's not implicated."

The report was short, but it was enough for Nan Hua.

"She's still alive, huh?"

Two or so years ago when Nan Hua infiltrated into Zhang Xu Kingdom, she had met with General Chi's former wife. Even though they were not meeting directly, there was still possibility that she would be able to recognize this name when it was mentioned.

After all, it was not every time that Chi Song Hui was duped by a young lady.

He was taken advantage so badly that the Jian Family was angry back then. But his mother was technically no longer part of the Jian Family.

Jian Family is only her natal family.

"Ku Family is an official family?"

"Yes. The current head of Ku Family is her husband and he's an official at the fourth rank. After reorganization, his rank might be demoted appropriately. His name is Ku You and he had several children before his second marriage to Jian Family and had several children who also worked on the court."

Nan Hua nodded.

Since the two of them no longer had their first spouse, they ended up getting together. Perhaps, the Jian Family also coveted the power behind the Ku Family, which was the reason why they decided to arrange for Jian Yu Tan, General Chi's former wife, remarriage.

In any case, what General Chi wanted to do with Jian Yu Tan was not her business. 

The Emperor himself might call him for this matter since General Chi still contacted Jian Yu Tan even after he moved to Fei Yang Kingdom. How much was true sincerity and how much was for the sake of responsibility remained unknown.

Divorce was rare in this era.

And usually it was women who would be in the disadvantage. Jian Yu Tan was the rare case where she was the one who asked for it with her family backing being the strong one and she could return. 

In the end, she was married again, though.

"You may go."

Nan Si bowed and left quietly. 

…

<Long Qian Xing side>

While Nan Hua was busy with the works she had pushed back because of her inattention to Zhang Xu Kingdom, Long Qian Xing was helping Emperor Yang Zhou to settle many things. With his efficiency, it was not difficult for him to arrange for many things quickly.

Looking at how fast Long Qian Xing was, Emperor Yang Zhou somewhat lamented that Long Qian Xing was not an official.

Unfortunately, Long Qian Xing had great resistance towards the so called palace.

If not because of Emperor Yang Zhou, it was estimated that Long Qian Xing would have long chose not to come back here just to be abused.

At this time, they were not alone.

Emperor Yang Zhou had heard of Jian Yu Tan from Jian Family and the fact that she used to be General Chi's wife. Now that she had married Ku Family, she could no longer be said to be part of the Jian Family.

But the problem was…

General Chi still contacted Jian Family until the start of the war between Fei Yang Kingdom and Zhang Xu Kingdom around two years ago. Even when Jian Yu Tan was already married again, she still accepted the so called support that General Chi gave to her. 

Towards this kind of action, Emperor Yang Zhou was a bit speechless.

But it was also General Chi's personal housework. He didn't want to meddle in it if it was unnecessary.

"General Chi, everything about Jian Yu Tan had been complied. What to do with her will depend on your opinion." Emperor Yang Zhou looked at General Chi in front of him.

After losing an arm, General Chi was ready to retire. Now, he was also facing a piece of news that his so called ex-wife was actually already married again and had a new family.

For so many years, he kept on supporting her from the back and send money from Fei Yang Kingdom.

She took it all.

And during this time, she never told him that she already had a new family and no longer needed his so called support anymore.
