Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower

Chapter 1757 Long Qian Xing and Nan Hua's Banter

<Long Qian Xing and Nan Hua's side>

The journey to the south from the north itself would take a long time. And during this period of time, the army would be making their way to the south while they could enjoy the scenery that they couldn't enjoy during the period of war. With them being so busy on the frontline, there was basically no chance for them to appreciate the scenery. To be exact, Nan Hua was looking at the scenery while Long Qian Xing was watching her. "General Xing, have you done looking?" Nan Hua asked without turning her eyes to the side. As an agent, Nan Hua was very keen to other people's gaze to her. Even if she didn't pay attention to them most of the time unless there was something off, she could still notice them most of the time. Besides, Long Qian Xing didn't really hide the fact that he was looking at Nan Hua. "No," Long Qian Xing replied. The two of them were busy with the war for a long period of time. Even though Long Qian XIng knew that this was necessary for the sake of their dream and ambition, but he was still rather dissatisfied from another angle.

Because this had caused him to be unable to spend more time with Nan Hua. The short birthday celebration only lasted for one day at most and Long Qian Xing couldn't stay with Nan Hua for a longer period of time. Now that he could openly be with Nan Hua without the need to care about those things, Long Qian Xing would make use of his time to the fullest. Hearing his words, Nan Hua turned her head to look at Long Qian XIng. "You're not very polite, General Xing."

Even though her sentence was full of reproach, she didn't seem to blame him that much. There was a faint hint of amusement in her eyes instead. Long Qian Xing chuckled. "I don't need to be polite in front of my…." He was about to say fiancée, but then he remembered that the soldiers were still quite near them. Even if they would ignore the fact that he was speaking informally with Nan Hua, they would definitely question when did he got a fiancée for himself. Nan Hua's 'death' at that time hadn't been fully resolved.

Thinking about this, Long Qian Xing had some headache. Nan Hua seemed to be able to guess what Long Qian Xing was thinking when she saw his expression. However, she showed no intention to help him. "There has been some rumors spreading about General Xing's private life a little messy. I think it'll be best for you not to add more fire to the rumor, General Xing," Nan Hua said, her tone slightly mischievous. When Long Qian Xing heard this, he arched his eyebrows and chuckled. "And whose fault does those rumors came from, General Jun?"

He stressed the word 'General Jun' when he spoke. The two of them knew full well that those rumors came because of Long Qian Xing's interaction with Nan Hua. Because of Nan Hua's attire and the fact that she was hiding her real identity, the other soldiers thought that she was different people all the time. So, rumors came during the discussion of these soldiers. Many of them were confused how did Long Qian Xing was able to gain so many rumors pertaining his relationship. What was worse was that some people questioning his orientation in secret because in one of those times, Nan Hua was dressed as a boy and Long Qian Xing carried her. Nan Hua looked at Long Qian Xing and then replied with a calm face. "I don't know what you're talking about, General Xing."

Even when she was lying, Nan Hua's expression didn't change in the slightest bit as if she really didn't know what Long Qian Xing was talking about. Hearing Nan Hua's words, Long Qian Xing snorted. If only it was possible, he really wanted to push her and then punish her mouth…

*cough*

When the thoughts were flying away like that, Long Qian Xing quickly restrained himself from thinking anything inappropriate. The two of them were not married yet and be it in this life or in his previous life, he was a rather traditional man. For him, it was a respect he should give to her.

So Long Qian Xing was silent for a while, calming himself down. Nan Hua saw Long Qian Xing silent and tilted her head slightly, not really understanding what Long Qian Xing was thinking. She averted her eyes away and looked at the lands they crossed. These lands used to belong to Wei Da Kingdom, but now they were usually called as Central Area. Because the places were indeed at the central and there were several river they were about to cross. In the distance, Nan Hua could see the farmer working hard. Some of them stopped when they saw the army and then waved their hands. Happiness was present on their faces. Even if it was hard to see the exact details of their expression, but Nan Hua could see that these people were genuinely happy and grateful for the army. Those who used to oppose Fei Yang Kingdom or felt that they didn't need them were now full of trust. The changes happened after the bandits were exterminated. With so much river, the Central Area would definitely develop at rapid speed and the river could be used as transportation. Emperor Yang Zhou was slowly developing the ships for trades and battles but the progress was relatively slow because the technology was relatively new for them. It was more commonly used by Wei Da Kingdom in the past, but their ships were not very advanced. There were many weakness, which was why Long Qian Xing was able to defeat them relatively easily when he faced them in the past. What Emperor Yang Zhou wanted was a strong batch of ships.

So this matter was still in progress. But the generals who were in charge of the Central Area had already reformed this place. The rampart bandits were exterminated, giving people peace and comfort. Nan Hua smiled faintly when she thought about it.
