Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower

Chapter 456 Wait

"Since the matter is now over, let's disperse."

"Yes, Your Highness."

Nan Hua looked at Shangguan Mi and Shangguan Die for a moment before turning her head to look at the closest lady who stood before her. Her eyes flashes as she recognized her as the same person who tried to help her back on Princess Yue's banquet.

This person was either too kind or very scheming.

"This one didn't feel well. Please excuse me."

"Yes."

"Take care, Young Miss Nan."

The other noble ladies were also very tolerant and bid their farewell. They knew that if they were in Nan Hua's shoes, they wouldn't be able to react as calmly as her.

At the back, Nan Xin was feeling partially excited and partially regretful. If she had to say, she herself also wanted to be the one to get married to Long Qian Xing. Seeing as how he was so promising and all, Nan Xin also had her ambition.

But this was not bad.

It seemed that Nan Hua might not be able to keep him for herself as long as there were more people who threw themselves to him.

She would have her chance in the future.

…

Long Qian Xing walked into the main hall once more. His two friends, Lin Yuan and Song Chuan were already waiting for him. They felt that Long Qian Xing might be angry because of this matter considering that he had accepted Nan Hua to be his future wife.

"Long… are you alright?" Lin Yuan asked.

"I'm fine. Lin Yuan, arrange that woman to be put at the furthest residence and give her the salary of a servant." Long Qian Xing hated women who threw themselves to him. He could see that Shangguan Mi was happy even though she was only arranged as a concubine.

Unfortunately for that young woman, she didn't know that she had only walked towards hell with her own two legs.

If she had known, she would never throw herself to others like this.

Long Qian Xing hated being schemed against by another person, especially when it come to this matter. He would never even consider getting close to Shangguan Mi even if she threatened to kill herself.

If she really does want to try.

He would watch indifferently from the sides.

"That's easy." Lin Yuan shrugged. He felt a bit pity for that woman. If she tried to enter Long Family through unscrupulous method, all that was left for her was misery. Just like many other of General Long's concubines who lived like servants in Long Family Residence and many were forced to go out on their own will because of the harsh treatment.

The Long Family would simply say that they never asked them to come and since they wanted to come, it was already generous of them to provide them with a place to stay.

Only those who were backed with rich family would choose to stay those torturing days.

"Why don't you reject if you want to treat her this way?" Lin Yuan asked curiously.

"That man will be in even more difficult position," Long Qian Xing replied unhurriedly. "It's not the time for him to make a move yet, so as someone at his side, I still can't offend those people."

Lin Yuan looked at Long Qian Xing with a look of pity. It was the same as Long Qian Xing's father or even worse because the one who arranged those concubines in Long Family Residence was Emperor Xuan, Emperor Yang Zhou's father.

It was harder to kick those women out and only through some methods had their number reduced so far.

"And I want to teach a lesson to those who want to try such method to enter." Long Qian Xing chuckled. "I'll let them know, the seat beside me only belong to one person."

Both Song Chuan and Lin Yuan felt chills on their back when they heard Long Qian Xing's laugh. They knew very well that someone was out of luck whenever Long Qian Xing laugh or say something like this.

It might not look like he had done anything.

But in truth, there was something that he did behind the scenes.

"There are still a few more months." Long Qian Xing's eyes flashed with ruthlessness. "Until that time, I'll let them gloat for some time."

Song Chuan nodded. "I have already contacted some people to settle her maternal family. She won't have their support anymore."

"As for their stores, it's easy to make it fall." Lin Yuan grinned.

Long Qian Xing looked at his two friends and silently wondered which one among them was the cruelest. One person tried to scheme against him but the three of them moved at the same time.

They were also no longer ordinary youth who couldn't do anything but rely on their family's support. By now, they were already quite influential in their own respective sides and this would only continue to grow.

Wait a bit more.

In a few more months, there wouldn't be anyone who could go against them anymore in Fei Yang Kingdom.

…

"What are you doing, Ah Die?" Second Madam Shangguan looked at her daughter with exasperation. She felt that whatever words she was about to say would be useless when she saw her daughter's appearance.

Shangguan Die chuckled. "I'm only doing what I want."

"Do you want to not have any place here anymore?" Second Madam Shangguan was exasperated.

"It's fine."

"What?"

"I feel sick staying here." Shangguan Die looked at her mother, the very same person who persuaded her to continue trying. She knew that her mother wanted her to stay strong and married someone powerful, but she was tired.

Every single time they saw her face, they would be staying away and refused to even look in her direction. Thus, the only thing that Shangguan Die could do was to put on a front and acted as if it never affected her in the slightest bit.

But it was impossible for her heart not to be affected.

It hurt.

Her heart hurt.

"Ah Die!"

"I'm going back, Mother."
