Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower

Chapter 1614 Borrowing a Palace

Long Qian Xing was glad that he was not transmigrated to be an Emperor.

If he were to be in that position, the first thing he would do would be to abolish the Imperial Harem and stopped these officials from sending their daughter to his side. Of course, if he wanted to do that, he would have to be in high and powerful enough position first.

Should he made such radical move when he was weak, he would be devoured by these old foxes and b*stards.

'I'll just listen in and then slip away later.'

That was what in Long Qian Xing's mind as he picked a relatively inconspicuous corner to listen to the morning court.

…

<Not long distance away, Nan Hua's location>

Nan Hua finished their warm up and taught them simple move to practice. She corrected their posture after around an incense stick of time, she led them to cool off. Their body was still very young and small.

It wouldn't do them good to over train themselves.

"Is it done, General Jun?" Imperial Concubine Huan felt that the moves were really simple.

"The princesses are still young and wouldn't be able to stand it if the training is too strenuous." Nan Hua looked at the woman in front of her. Imperial Concubine Huan was only a bit older than her, but she was already a mother of a four to five year old daughter.

It was indeed really fast for women in this era to have children.

"I see."

Imperial Concubine Huan didn't know much about learning martial arts. When Emperor Yang Zhou mentioned this matter to her last night, she was a bit curious too. However, it was good that her daughter was able to learn martial arts.

Even if she wouldn't end up being so strong, she could have healthy body.

In this harem, it was difficult for them to survive with weak bodies. Imperial Concubine Huan wished for the best for her daughter.

"The lessons are over. Do you want to play?" Nan Hua looked at the two children in front of her.

"Play?" The two children's attention was obviously attracted immediately.

"Yes." Nan Hua looked at the chair that was in the shaded area. "I'll tell stories and then asked a few questions. The one who can guess the most question will receive a gift."

"Yes!"

The two princesses were immediately interested.

The two Imperial Concubines looked at each other and then tactfully stood at the side. Neither one of their families had any relationship with Jun Hua, so they could be rest assured that this female general wouldn't harm their children.

Besides, it was rare to see the two princesses so happy with outsiders.

In the Imperial Palace, where would there be any time when they could be genuinely happy?

Since General Jun wanted to play with them, they would just stand at the side.

If others asked, they could just say that General Jun liked the two princesses and wanted to play with them.

That would settle this matter.

They wouldn't dare to ask General Jun. She was asked by the Emperor to teach the two princesses and if she wanted to bring them to play afterwards, there was no one who would dare to say that she was not allowed.

Thus, the picture changed to Nan Hua telling stories to the two princesses.

When Emperor Yang Zhou came back with Long Qian Xing tailing him, this was the picture he saw.

"General Jun is telling stories?" Emperor Yang Zhou asked, his tone was a bit strange. He didn't expect that this young woman would like children.

"Replying to Your Highness, General Jun had finished teaching the children and then tell them stories. Afterwards, she will ask a few questions and the one who can answer the most will receive some sweets."

Emperor Yang Zhou nodded.

Sweets were indeed the most appropriate to gift for these young children. Though, there had to be a limit because too much will make their teeth hurt.

"General Jun liked children," Emperor Yang Zhou said and silently looked at Long Qian Xing beside him.

"Indeed." Long Qian Xing could see a rare tenderness in Nan Hua when she was facing the two children. Not to mention, her compassion was usually given to those who were younger and still had a chance to change in the future.

Because a children's worldview is not fixed yet.

They could still change with time.

"I wonder when she will have a child on her own."

Long Qian Xing glanced at Emperor Yang Zhou and really wanted to snort. How could he fail to notice that Emperor Yang Zhou was alluding to him?

"I seem to have to many appointments at the frontline. Perhaps, it would be good for me to change my station to be nearer the Capital City," Long Qian Xing said in a low voice.

Emperor Yang Zhou rolled his eyes. "That wouldn't do. The next battle will be at the north. I heard that Strategist Song has been preparing for war."

Strategist Song.

Long Qian Xing had heard of this man and he snorted lightly. He had some petty grudges with this man in their previous world.

Now that they were truly standing in the opposite side, it was time for him to settle these accounts. He had long wanted to beat that man as hard as possible without any reservation.

'Who would have thought my old rivals, comrades, and acquaintances would all be thrown to this world.'

Long Qian Xing shook his head lightly.

"Your Majesty, I would like to request to borrow a place for a while."

Emperor Yang Zhou narrowed his eyes. "Again?"

"It would only take a few incense sticks of time. I also wouldn't bother with the few things you want to do while you're finishing the work that had been piled up." Long Qian Xing smiled brightly.

Seeing Long Qian Xing's smile, Emperor Yang Zhou had the faint impulse to smash a fist to that face.

When he was with Long Qian Xing, his emotion was sometimes still fluctuated.

In the end, he spat out, "Fine."
