Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower

Chapter 1543 Engagement

Great General Wei's eyes flickered slightly when he heard Nan Hua's words. He looked at Nan Hua up and down for a moment before saying, "Which number?"

"12th," Nan Hua replied calmly.

"I see. That old man is still soliciting young people now." Great General Wei's stature was more relaxed. "What matters did you come here for?"

"My twin brother would like to be engaged to your second daughter."

Silence.

Great General Wei didn't immediately respond and instead looked in Nan Hua's direction with a frown. Nan Hua's twin brother was Nan Luo and from the report he had read, this was a fine young man.

But considering from the perspective of a prospective son in law…

He didn't seem to be good enough.

Nan Luo was by no means a mature person. His personality was refreshing but he didn't really look like to be good enough to be a son in law.

Anyway, for a father, perhaps, there was no men good enough for their daughter.

Wei Mu Qing was Great General Wei's favored daughter.

He would not decide on her marriage so easily.

"I didn't expect that Great General Nan's grandson would favor my daughter." Great General Wei looked at Nan Hua deeply. "You should know that she's also my successor in that field."

Nan Hua nodded. Naturally, she also knew that from the very moment she knew Wei Mu Qing was very proficient in medicine. Without his teaching, there was no way Wei Mu Qing would be interested and willing to study medicine.

However, Wei Mu Qing could be said to be a girl who still learned more about the arts of women compared to Wei Mu Ya.

Wei Mu Ya was more rough and liked to fight on the battlefield.

"Second Miss Wei is good," Nan Hua said slowly.

Great General Wei looked at Nan Hua and took a deep breath. "Why should I agree to this engagement?"

"Nan Family is barely supported by Great General Nan and the only successor is Young Master Nan. Should Second Miss Wei got married into Nan Family, she will be the woman with the highest rank because I'll be married away. Wei Family is getting stronger with your and your son's achievement.

Should you marry your daughter to a more powerful family with deep foundation, it will make you more powerful but also make others threatened by your growth. Nan Family was powerful but there's only one person and could barely be considered a threat.

While Feng Family is close to the Nan Family, a married woman is considered a thrown water. Even if they're close, the relationship wouldn't be so obvious and would make people so threatened unlike when it's a woman married into the Nan Family."

What Nan Hua said was from the perspective of the outsiders.

While marrying for the sake of power does exist, but most people had to consider the balance of power. This was something that they cared more than the feelings of the people.

Besides, Feng Ao Si himself had gotten married to a former commoner and it was not such a large family.

Feng Ao Kuai himself would be engaged to the fallen Mu Family.

It could be said that their power was there but not so overwhelming that it made others looked in their direction and felt threatened.

Great General Wei was powerful.

But he was also the only one in his family.

Marrying his granddaughter into the Nan Family would not hurt the interest too much but would also allow him not to lower himself to marry a relatively lower family.

Nan Hua looked at Great General Wei and added, "The two juniors have good relationship with each other. Nan Luo will treat Second Miss Wei well and will not make her feel wronged. He had no concubine and perhaps had no plan on taking one."

Considering how Nan Luo had seen the mess in Nan Family Residence back then, Nan Hua doubted that Nan Luo will take any concubine. He was taught by his grandfather who only married one woman too.

Even if many high ranked nobility men had more than one women in their harem, some rare families had the rules of having only one.

And Nan Family could barely be included.

At the very least, Nan Luo didn't look like he was someone who was willing to take a concubine right now.

Great General Wei looked at Nan Hua in front of him and only know that this young woman was actually so eloquent and know the main interest for most people in this age in regards for marriage. It was mostly because of interest and the power behind the family.

Who would actually marry for love?

That was why many men loved their concubine more than their main wife.

Because their concubines were prettier but they didn't have high enough status to be their main wife.

He was born and raised in commoner family and had no interest to have such a messy family. His father and mother were good to each other and because of their low status, his father also couldn't marry a concubine.

But he always felt that such relationship was good.

This was the reason why he got married relatively late and only have one wife.

What Nan Hua said was indeed worthy of consideration.

"You're very knowledgeable, Young Miss Nan."

"Many thanks for your words, Great General Wei." Nan Hua cupped her fist politely.

Great General Wei arched his eyebrows at Nan Hua's action that was following men's etiquette but he didn't comment.

Instead, he was thinking about something else. "The offer is indeed very attractive, but Nan Family is not the only family with such good condition in Fei Yang Kingdom."

"That's indeed true." Nan Hua knew that there were also other good families in Fei Yang Kingdom. She then added, "And you owe me two favors, Fourth Senior Brother."

Great General Wei: "…"

He had the feeling that this cheeky brat in front of him was trying to threaten him and he had evidence for it.
