Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower

Chapter 1586 Feng Ao Si’s Promise

Knowing that her father asked this for her sake, Wei Mu Qing sighed and curtsied, signaling that she knew and agreed with his arrangement. Her body was not too strong, especially amongst the soldiers who were exceptionally strong.

Since that was the case, she would only hold them back if she stayed here.

She had already learned a lot during the past year, so it was time for her to go back and continued her study in the four arts.

"I'll try to go back next year." Great General Wei patted Wei Mu Qing's head before turning around and left.

Wei Mu Qing stayed in the house and sighed silently. She felt a bit disappointed, but she knew that this would be the best.

Well, she still had to finish the preparation for her marriage too.

When she thought about this, a blush appeared on her cheek.

…

<Not long afterwards>

Old Master Nan was planning on going back on his own. But when he looked at the entourage that Emperor Yang Zhou set up, he simply shut his mouth. This return journey wouldn't be as peaceful as he hoped it would be.

There were simply too many people who would come along.

"This is basically the safest lineup I have ever seen," Nan Luo muttered.

From Long Qian Xing, Nan Hua, Old Master Nan, there were already three generals. Not to mention there was also Prime Minister Lan who used to be a general in his youth but already long retired and now served in the court.

They were all going back while escorting Emperor Yang Zhou.

Just looking at this lineup, Nan Luo felt that whoever attempted to attack them would only end up dying on the way.

Feng Ao Kuai looked at the luxurious lineup and nodded in agreement. He turned to look at Nan Luo. "Go and have some rest. You will have to follow Great General Wei later."

"Yeah, I know." Nan Luo sighed.

After the arrangement in Liang City was done, Great General Wei will continue the war. At the north area, Yu Jin was still busy fighting and hold the fort. They didn't know the details but some people kept on saying that she was scary.

At this rate, the reputation of Fei Yang Kingdom would go down along with Yu Jin. 

"We'll meet again soon enough." Feng Ao Kuai waved his hand and walked to his army. They were all going to go back to their respective home but right now, they would travel together.

Si Kang was following Feng Ao Kuai dutifully, acting as the loyal servant as he has always been.

"Si Kang."

"Do you have any instruction for me, Young Master?" Si Kang asked hurriedly. 

"Do you want to get married and settle down?" Feng Ao Kuai suddenly asked. For many years, Si Kang had been serving him and helping him. But he didn't want to hold Si Kang back.

Since Si Kang had served him well during this time, he hoped that Si Kang would also have his own life. At the very least, in the way he wanted to.

Si Kang paused.

He had never thought about this.

Ever since he was young, he was taught to follow Feng Ao Kuai's order and also learned well so that he would be able to use it. There was no thought in his mind about settling down and making any family.

For him, following Feng Ao Kuai might as well be the only thing he knew.

"I haven't thought about it, Young Master," Si Kang finally answered.

Feng Ao Kuai nodded. "If you ever thought about it, tell me. If you do want to settle down, I won't stop you."

While Si Kang did follow him for so many years, but he couldn't possibly hold Si Kang back for his entire life. Of course, if Si Kang still wanted to serve him after getting married and all, Feng Ao Kuai wouldn't stop him.

He was just thinking about their lives in the future.

Having serving him for a long period of time, Si Kang already had a lot of money. This way, it wouldn't be a problem for him if he wanted to go back and no longer stay with Feng Ao Kuai.

Si Kang watched Feng Ao Kuai's back and lowered his gaze. He was technically sold by his family members to Feng Family when he was young. Because they were all poor and he had many siblings, he was finally selected to be sold out so that they could all stay alive.

By now, he no longer remembered his family members anymore.

It has been too long and there was no contact whatsoever from them. Thus, Si Kang never thought of leaving Feng Ao Kuai.

But Feng Ao Kuai's words clearly told him that if he wanted to, Feng Ao Kuai would not stop him from leaving.

*neigh*

Feng Ao Si was holding the horse and sighed deeply. He wished that he could go back to the frontline soon, but he knew that he and his men needed to rest. Not to mention, he had left his wife for a long time and missed her.

"Ao Kuai," Feng Ao Si called out when he saw his younger brother.

Feng Ao Kuai stopped and turned to look at Feng Ao Si. His gaze was calm and indifferent, making Feng Ao Si nervous when looking at the other party.

"I'll change."

"I see." Feng Ao Kuai didn't respond anything else. 

The gaze given by his younger brother only made Feng Ao Si felt more awkward. He took a deep breath and smirked. "And when I reach the rank of General, I'll take you to drink."

Drink?

Thinking that he was still underage for the time being, Feng Ao Kuai knew that Feng Ao Si was talking about the far future. The future when Feng Ao Si finally reached the rank of general while he achieved his own rank.

Feng Ao Kuai smirked. "Then I'll be waiting for you, Brother Si."
