[1] Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower

Ch 821 - 825

Chapter 821: Concubine Mu, Mu Bai Ci
       
Early in the morning, Nan Hua woke up early and departed quietly. Even though the situation was relatively bad for Nan Family because of the swirling rumors, it didn't really affect Nan Hua that much.    

She had known that the things would develop this way and thus had long been prepared.    

Unlike other people who were paying close attention to what others were saying outside, Nan Hua personally didn't care that much. What they said wouldn't harm her in the slightest bit.    

Besides, she knew that it was true that her father was executed and had done many wrong things.    

Perhaps, death was an easy sentence for him.    

But Nan Hua didn't really want to see Nan Shu Cheng anymore. It would be better to cut off the source of trouble directly rather than letting him live with the chance to make more trouble in the future.    

Knock! Knock!    

"Miss, we're here."    

Nan Hua looked at the small courtyard in front of her before taking the hat that Mu Yan had prepared for her. There were two types of veils that could be used, one that only covered half the face and a hat that could cover the entire body.    

The second one was not that commonly used except when they were out on an outing and it was inconvenient for other people to look at them. After all, noble ladies usually only stayed in their residences with no one who could look at them.    

Thus, this became the method for them to hide their appearance from outsiders.    

"Wait here."    

Nan Hua wore the hat and walked down the carriage. She looked at the small and somewhat dilapidated building in front of her. Her black obsidian eyes flickered slightly as she slowly walked inside.    

There were only three people inside, three women to be exact.    

One of them raised their head when she heard the steps and quickly bowed. "This servant greets First Young Miss Nan."    

The other one quickly followed while the last one curtsied. "Mu Bai Ci greets First Young Miss Nan."    

Mu Bai Ci, who used to be known as Concubine Mu in Nan Shu Cheng's Residence, could no longer use her previous name. She was released from Nan Shu Cheng's Residence and used her own private money that she had accumulated to be able to be released and bought a small courtyard on the outskirt of the capital city.    

The houses here were relatively cheaper, but it was still fairly expensive. After all, it was not easy to have a house in the Capital City. Even on the outskirt, the price was quite significant.    

Mu Bai Ci was dressed in plain dress and looked somewhat ordinary. She no longer wore any beautiful accessories like she did back in Nan Shu Cheng's Residence. Her current appearance made her look like a peasant woman.    

Nan Hua looked at Mu Bai Ci and replied, "Miss Mu."    

Mu Bai Ci smiled faintly at Nan Hua's greetings.    

Nan Shu Cheng's concubines and the residence's servants had various endings. Hers might have been the best because she managed to leave relatively unscathed and then bought her own house in this place.    

It was a good place for her.    

"My apologies I have nothing to serve you, Young Miss Nan." Mu Bai Ci showed an embarrassed look. "I have only moved in and there hasn't been anything prepared."
