Forgotten Legend Of The Bloodied Flower

Chapter 78 - The Wind Blows

There was no change in her expression as she walked out of the Western Courtyard as if everything that happened before was unrelated to her.

No one saw what she did before and because Nan Hua's distance was far from Nan Xin, no one would be able to connect the dot. Besides, this time, Nan Hua didn't use any difficult to obtain items and only the rocks that were scattered on the garden. There were plenty of them and no one would notice if one was misplaced.

It was not like there was someone who took notes of the precise location of each stone.

"I didn't expect an incident would happen right after we're about to leave."

"Yes. I'm now glad that I didn't perform too well. If I have to stay behind and listen to Princess Yue's anger, I'm sure that I wouldn't be able to live past tomorrow." Another girl shuddered.

The others nodded.

"Now that Second Miss Nan had angered Princess Yue, do you think she'll stay silent?" Girls loved to gossips and since they were no longer under the heavy pressure of Princess Yue, they became more open.

Those who were present basically knew each other and even if they didn't, they were only discussing a concubine daughter. It was not that much of a trouble even if they were found out since the other party's status was pretty low.

"She should be staying low if she didn't want more people to talk about this. There are not many people who dared to anger Princess Yue during Emperor Xuan's reign," Another girl added.

Princess Yue might be of Imperial Family but she was not heavily favored. It was only because Emperor Xuan hated those who were impolite to the Imperial Family that the rules grew a bit stricter during this time. Thanks to that, no one dared to slight them, even to a mere princess like Princess Yue.

But now that the Emperor had changed, many people were still a bit unsure.

"I'm sure she'll not stay silent. Just watch, there might be another drama ensued soon."

"Eh, why are you saying that?"

"That's because I heard that the Nan Family hadn't been peaceful lately. Since such a problem occurred, wouldn't it mean that there might be others that follow up," the girl gave her analysis calmly.

Nan Hua glanced at the young girl who said that and silently memorized her name. Explore new 𝒏ovels on n𝒐velbi𝒏(.)com

"I just hope it won't implicate us."

"Right, my family is small and not too influential. Sigh, how difficult is it to live now."

The girls still chatted for a bit more. They slowly went separate ways and some of them headed to Southern Courtyard along with Nan Hua. Of course, they didn't seem to notice her presence as they talked about what happened by themselves.

When they passed by Nan Hua's temporary residence, she naturally moved away and walked directly to the field.

"Again!" Hou Liang shouted to Nan Luo. He was supervising the young boy intently to make sure that Nan Luo would not barge into the tea party that Princess Yue hosted. No matter how much Nan Luo demanded to have Nan Hua called back, he would not back down.

He didn't allow Nan Luo to escape from his supervision.

"Miss, you're back!" Xiao Yun was the first to notice Nan Hua. After she escorted Nan Hua to the Eastern Courtyard, she had to return and waited in the residence. All this time, she was feeling restless.

Seeing that Nan Hua was fine, she felt relieved.

"Mhm." Nan Hua nodded.

"Hua'er!" Nan Luo saw Nan Hua and his eyes lit up. This time, he didn't care whether Hou Liang would punish him or whatever as he threw his wooden sword to the side and ran to Nan Hua's side.
