Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower

Chapter 415 Hai Palace (2)

Nan Hua could see that the battle was getting heated at the gate, but she didn't know how much time would it take.

The battle had started for some time.

*cough* *cough*

Mu Fei Xin's face was pale, but she struggled to stand up beside Prince Yang Lu. For her, this was the first time she ever had to face with so much blood and battles. It was all new to her, making her feel nausea.

"If you need to, you can rest first." Prince Yang Lu didn't want to burden his wife.

"I'm fine."

"Those who can't fight, hide with these officials." Nan Hua glanced at Prince Yang Lu. "The rest, follow me to release the children."

"Your Highness."

Prince Yang Lu nodded. He beckoned for those who were wounded to stay behind and guarded these officials. After having a 'hearty talk' with them, they were more or less listening to what he and Mu Fei Xin said.

They would not create any unnecessary trouble.

"I'll be going first."

"Mr. Nan." The captain was stunned but Nan Hua had disappeared into the darkness. Looking at the empty spot, he was speechless. Didn't Nan said for them to follow him? Why did he leave them behind, then?

"Recover your strength first." Prince Yang Lu sat down on the chair, ignoring the blood dripping from the side. His dark eyes were looking towards the mess around him. He understood that this happened because of Hai Family, yet he also knew that he had played a part in this.

If he was a bit more decisive and not following blindly of what his mother told him to do, this would not happen.

Mu Fei Xin was paying close attention to Prince Yang Lu's condition. She stretched her hand and grabbed his hand, giving him a reassuring smile. No matter what, they would make it out of this place alive and show the world just what did the Hai Family had done.

"Your Highness, about our agreement," one of the officials asked in a low voice. He was afraid, but he didn't want to lose out.

Prince Yang Lu turned his head, shooting a cold and indifferent look. "It's already generous of me to give you an offer considering that you want to kill me not long ago. Do you have anything you want to add?"

Despite being young, Prince Yang Lu's presence alone was enough to serve as deterrence for many other people. After he had decided not to rely on others and instead on himself more, there was an aura of authority that he continued to exude around his body.

It prevented people from staying close to him and disrespect him.

"No… nothing." The official stumbled back.

The captain watched and felt a bit relieved. He knew that Prince Yang Lu used to rely on his mother a lot. But after being separated for a long time, he began to have his own plan.

It was better this way.

Rather than being a puppet, they were all human beings with their own goal, dream, and action.

Swish! Slash!

Nan Hua killed the guards who were guarding several quarters. The sound of children crying could be heard even from a distance away. Nan Hua herself had noticed that there were also several officials who had fainted there.

'Feng Qian Kun….'

Looking at the man who was lying on the ground with two children crying beside him, Nan Hua knew that Feng Qian Kun was unlucky enough to get found out after she tossed him to that storage room. The two children also woke up and witnessed everything that happened.

After calculating the number of guards and their position, Nan Hua departed once more.

She returned to the location where the others were staying.

"Have you found them?"

Nan Hua nodded and briefly explained the position of the guards and also their location. Listening to how Nan Hua explained everything so clearly, Prince Yang Lu looked in her direction with a thoughtful expression.

There was no way this shadow guard was an ordinary person.

The way 'he' reported everything showed extreme familiarity towards how things worked in military. It was as if he had already worked in the military for many years.

But Prince Yang Lu never heard of anyone with the name 'Nan.'

"Let's go and save the children." The Captain decided.

"Alright, let's go."

Swish!

Those who still could move hurriedly head towards the designated quarter and began their battle.

Slash! Slash! Slash!

It didn't take a long time for them to finish everything. The soldiers were all caught off guards and unable to react in time.

Thus, in the midst of crying children from the quarter, the soldiers were all killed one by one.

"It's done."

"Are the children safe?"

They opened the door and looked at the terrified children. Some younger ones even fainted when they saw the blood on the soldier's body.

Most of the people there were either children or some fainted adults.

It was clear that Hai Family had long used their women to entice these officials to come here and locked their children. Even if they didn't choose to comply, Nan Hua was sure that these children would be taught to become like the others.

They were all of Hai Family because their mother came from here.

Nan Hua stood there and swept her gaze across the children inside the room. There was also 'Nan Hua' who was sitting while hugging Xiao Yun. It looked as if she was terrified with everything that happened here.

Only those who knew her well know that she was only acting.

Nan Hua then turned her head around. "It should be all in the inner region. Do you want to check the outer layer too?"

"There's no need." Prince Yang Lu looked at Nan Hua with a complicated expression. He had never thought that he would be feeling deterred just from seeing the fight not long ago. Even though he knew that this guard named 'Nan' was skilled, he never thought that it would be so much.

"Your Highness, we've cleaned up here too."

"I have talked with the officials." Mu Fei Xin smiled as she walked towards them gracefully. Despite her body trembling ever so slightly, there was excitement on her face.

"Good."

Nan Hua was looking at the two of them. With this, she had once again changed the future that was set for them. These two were supposed to die in this event but they were now alive and kicking.

What changes it would bring, she didn't know.

However, she knew that from now on, Prince Yang Lu wouldn't try to take the throne from Emperor Yang Zhou anymore.

"Don't forget your promise, Your Highness."

"I won't." Prince Yang Lu nodded solemnly.

Mu Fei Xin smiled and also nodded. She would make sure that these officials were supporting Emperor Yang Zhou.

In the near future, it would later be known that the political support that was originally supporting Prince Yang Lu switched to Emperor Yang Zhou. Prince Yang Lu also indirectly told them that he would never aim for the throne ever again, which was why the nobles actively support Emperor Yang Zhou.
