Chapter 491 - His Involvement

The next day, Xiao Yun yawned because she felt sleepy. It was her turn to guard Nan Hua in the morning, but she couldn't sleep well during the early half because of the noise from Madam Qu's Quarter.

She even wondered how many porcelains were left after being smashed every single day.

Those pottery makers would surely be sad when they knew that their hard work were being disregarded and only used to vent other people's anger.

Xiao Yun heard some noise from inside and called out, "Miss, are you awake?"

"Come in, Xiao Yun."

Carrying a basket, Xiao Yun walked into the room. If Nan Hua wanted to, it was very easy for her to wake up without uttering any voice. She only purposely made noise so that Xiao Yun could do her duty.

"Miss, what's your plan for today?"

Nan Hua washed her hand and face calmly. "I remember there's a small pond nearby. Let's take a walk."

"Yes, Miss."

After some preparation, Nan Hua walked out of the quarter and headed to the nearby small pond. It was the pond that Nan Shu Cheng made many years ago because Madam Nan asked him to.

At that time, Nan Hua hadn't been born yet. She only knew about it because her mother told her when she was a kid.

'There are more memories now.'

Nan Hua looked at the surface of the lake while thinking. She was sure that her mother brought her here many times, but she could only remember one occasion when her mother reminisced and told her that she was happy that her husband listened to her request.

When she passed by some places that had some past memories, Nan Hua managed to remember some bit and pieces.

But it was very little.

The amount of memory that she recovered didn't even reach a day's time.

"Miss, would you like to stay here for lunch?" Xiao Yun asked after Nan Hua had stayed for more than two incense stick of times.

Nan Hua blinked her eyes and shook her head. "Let's return."

"Yes, Miss."

As Nan Hua turned, she noticed that there were several people who were walking in the other side of the area. The small pond was located quite remote and there was rarely anyone who passed by this place.

However, there was a group of people now.

"Miss." Xiao Yun furrowed her eyebrows.

Nan Hua raised her hand as she walked to the front, putting a tree between their location. She looked in their direction, feeling that the mark on their robes were quite familiar.

'Du Family.'

'Why are they here?'

Nan Family didn't have any relationship with Du Family. Or at least, they were supposed to be not to have any relationship. Du Family was part of the opposing party in the politic and had many people working in the Ministry of Justice department. They were not that influential, but had made some contributions to the nation.

Nan Hua's eyes flickered. It seemed that Nan Shu Cheng was actually involved in the politics upheaval.

Because of the movement from the second prince's force that somehow turned to be favoring Emperor Yang Zhou, the other factions had started to feel the pressure. Those on Prime Minister Bei's side had been on the verge of switching sides from time to time but many still held on.
