Chapter 607 Staying in Heng Xing CityChapter 607 Staying in Heng Xing City
No matter how much Feng Ao Si protested, the other two dragged him to the field at the back. Thankfully, Zhang Dan Shui prepared them a residence that had a separate area to train. It seemed that he had already predicted that they would want to have some training when they came here.Thus, the two of them brought Feng Ao Si there to have some light exercise.
Old Master Nan chose to let his grandchildren have their fun. He had no intention of stopping them when they were like this.
"Master, Governor Zhang is here."
"Governor Zhang?" Old Master Nan repeated. He thought that the governor would be so busy after his great achievement in helping Fei Yang Kingdom fended the joint army. Who would have thought that he actually still had the time to come here?
"Tell him to wait in the living room."
"Yes, Master."
Old Master Nan was carried on his chair towards the living room because of his leg's condition. The arrangement for this residence was very clear, quite similar to his own residence. It seemed that Zhang Dan Shui had purposely made it that way in order to make sure that he would be feeling quite comfortable to stay here.
That young man was not bad at all.
Zhang Dan Shui sat in the living room, trying to calm himself down. He could remain composed in front of other officials and even those who used to look down on him in the past. But Great General Nan was a different matter altogether.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtPutting aside the fact that Great General Nan was his boss's grandfather, just his identity as the war hero alone was already more than enough to put pressure on his shoulder. Though, Zhang Dan Shui was no longer the same person he used to be.
He was no longer the unremarkable and unknown official.
Instead, he was already the governor of an entire city and had a lot of people in his disposal.
When Old Master Nan appeared with the servants carrying him, Zhang Dan Shui hurriedly stood up. He cupped his fist. "Zhang Dan Shui greets Great General Nan."
"There's no need to be so excessive." Old Master Nan waved his hand.
Zhang Dan Shui cupped his fist once more. "Great General Nan, if it's hard on you to come here, I could have head directly to where you were staying just now."
"It's fine."
Alright, since Old Master Nan said that, Zhang Dan Shui couldn't say anything else.
"Great General Nan, I come here to inform of my departure to the Capital City. With regards to this, I heard that First Young Commander Feng, Second Young Commander Feng, and Young Commander Nan will also go. I would like to inquire whether it was possible for them to come along with me since it'll be safer in a larger group."
Old Master Nan arched his eyebrows. This Zhang Dan Shui was quite tactful. He had purposely avoided mentioning that he, Old Master Nan, would not go to the Capital City because of his condition.
Zhang Dan Shui merely asked about whether the three children could tag along with him because it was safer in a large group.
'Nan Hua really didn't pick ordinary people to be part of her group.'
Even now, Old Master Nan really wonder just what made Nan Hua so sure of Zhang Dan Shui in the past. The Zhang Family was in a mess and the young official didn't seem to be that remarkable or show any achievement.
Yet, Nan Hua bet on him.
Now that Zhang Dan Shui had already achieved a lot, yet he still kept his head level headed, Old Master Nan had better impression of this man.
"That would be a good idea. I'll leave my grandchildren to you, Governor Zhang."
"It's nothing much." Zhang Dan Shui was still polite. "I also come here to give this to you, Great General Nan."
Zhang Dan Shui took out a bamboo scroll and placed it on the table before him. It was the information that Dark Moon Organization had gathered from numerous spies. Because it would be hard for them to pass the information to Old Master Nan, they ended up giving it to Zhang Dan Shui.
As for how Zhang Dan Shui gave it to Old Master Nan, they didn't care.
Old Master Nan cast a fleeing glance at the bamboo scroll before looking at Zhang Dan Shui once more. He faintly nodded. "I see. Thank you for coming here to deliver this to me, Governor Zhang."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmZhang Dan Shui's lips twitched. He had the feeling that Old Master Nan knew where this batch of information actually came from. However, he couldn't possibly ask it out aloud and only nodded.
The two of them exchanged a few more pleasantries before Zhang Dan Shui left.
Old Master Nan took the bamboo scroll and unfurled it. Reading the content inside, his eyes narrowed. It detailed the spies and also the information gathered from the various spies from other kingdoms.
Very detailed at that.
To be able to get so much information, there must be someone who was working behind the scene to help Zhang Dan Shui. After all, Zhang Dan Shui was only a normal human who have limited time and energy.
"Hou Liang."
"Yes, Master."
"Send news to the border. Even if the war had ended, they better not think that everything had ended." Old Master Nan's eyes narrowed. "This peace can only last for so long because there are people who are busy protecting the border. They better not be relaxed just because a big war had ended."
"Yes, Master."
After that, Old Master Nan kept the bamboo scroll. He silently sighed in his heart when he thought of how much force would be needed to be able to gather such detailed information.
As for whether the information given to him was correct or not?
He was sure that it was true.
There was no way his granddaughter would give him false information.
