Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower

Chapter 305 – Escape Tactic

Princess Yue looked at the servants in front of her and sat down elegantly. Unlike the soldiers who were driving the carriages without stopping, she was still living her usual life inside the carriage.

During the first exchange of guards, they didn't stop at all. But since this was already evening and traveling near the border at night was more dangerous, the soldiers chose to stop in Wind City.

Looking at the commotion before her, Princess Yue raised her hand.

"Your Highness?"

"No matter how much you try to cover up a rock with beautiful decoration, it'll eventually reveal the true form." Princess Yue stood up. She looked at the soldiers around her and her lips curled up to form a smirk. "Choose a different inn to stay for the night. I can't stay in this place."

"Yes, Your Highness."

"No! Please pardon us, Your Highness!"

"Your Highness, please give us another chance…"

Ignoring the plea of the people around her, Princess Yue stood up and walked out of the inn haughtily. Her maidservants were all accompanying her and prevented anyone from getting close to her.

Even from a distance away, one could tell that she was a princess right away.

"She's a troublemaker…." Young Commander Chi, Chi Song Lian, muttered under his breath. He was one of the few commanders in the battlefield and chose to come with his father to do this mission. Even though he knew that the princess was terribly annoying after a day's journey, her action still made him annoyed very much.

General Chi shook his head. "Book another inn now."

"Yes, Father."

While Chi Song Lian walked away, Long Qian Xing and General Feng had arrived. They looked at the commotion in front of them and then looked at General Chi for explanation.

It took them some time to finish the arrangement for their departure tomorrow but Princess Yue was already attracting trouble.

"Her Highness is displeased by the service in the inn." General Chi looked at the two of them and sighed. "I would have to trouble General Feng and Young Commander Long for help."

"It's our duty." General Feng looked at Princess Yue and his eyebrows creased. He didn't think that this princess was actually that much of a problem until today. Also, General Chi's words had another underlying meaning.

Princess Yue detested the marriage agreement.

She was clearly trying to create trouble at every steps she took. Even though the soldiers had told her to behave and the previous commander had said many things, Princess Yue still acted as if she didn't hear anything.

She acted haughtily, claiming that her position didn't require her to stay low.

Thus, it garnered even more hatred.

At the opposite restaurant, the children had finished eating. Looking at the commotion outside and how the people were unwilling to let the carriage passed, Nan Luo shook his head. He felt that Princess Yue was indeed only a troublemaker.

"What do you think will happen, Luo?" Nan Hua asked as they walked out of the restaurant.

"Hmm?" Nan Luo arched his eyebrows. "There shouldn't be anything that happen, right? What can possibly happen under the watchful eyes of so many people?"

Many people?

Yes, there were a lot of people who were watching, but do you know that many of them have unkind intention. Nan Hua's keen senses clearly detected a lot of people were approaching this area when they heard the commotion.

Feng Ao Kuai looked at Nan Hua. He walked closer, acting as if he was blocking the people from getting close when he heard Nan Hua whispered to him. His eyes flashed with surprise then he nodded in understanding.

"Ugh, how are we supposed to get out in this crowd?" Feng Ao Si was annoyed.

"Don't use violence."

"I'm already restraining myself."

Feng Ao Si felt a bit speechless because he was clearly restraining himself very tightly. He was making sure that he didn't lash out because he didn't want to wound the people around him. His grandfather would beat him up badly if he did.

Also, he would have to answer the consequences of beating up people from his homeland in martial court.

A commander really didn't have it easy.

"Hua'er, let's go through the other way."

Nan Hua looked at her twin brother and tugged his sleeve to follow her to the other way. Halfway through, Nan Luo suddenly realized that he couldn't find Nan Hua at all. His pupil constricted when he heard the scream from the other side of the area.

KYaaaaaaaaaaaaa!

They were all stunned to see the carriage was set on fire.

"Your Highness!"

The soldiers were all moving at rapid speed, trying to make sure that they would be able to reach the carriage and pried it open. The sound of the people trying to rush over from all direction caused chaos almost instantly.

"Brother Ao Kuai! Brother Ao Si, find Hua'er!"

"Luo, I can't see Ao Kuai either!" Feng Ao Si yelled.

Nan Luo turned his head to the back only to realize that at some point of time, they were separated from each other. He frowned as he dashed to another area that had sparser people and looked around worriedly.

There were indeed people who were following them but he knew Nan Hua's skill very well.

If she had wanted them to never find her, even if she was standing before them, they would never know that it was her. It was precisely because of this point that Nan Luo was so worried that his face turned green.

Just where did she…

Bang!

The sound of some kind of explosion rang from the side. Their attention landed to the side when they saw a row of smokes over there.

At the same time, the soldiers were all alarmed.

"Your Highness is not in the carriage!"

"The carriage is empty!"

General Chi felt his heart turned cold when he heard what the soldiers were saying.. Looking at the burning carriages, he gritted his teeth. "Find her!"
