The soldiers were all silent.
Feng Ao Kuai didn't bother with them anymore and walked to his temporary residence. He had been staying here for some time, waiting for the news of victory. And a few days ago, he finally received it.
The white smoke seemed to be telling the entire world that Fei Yang Kingdom managed to defeated Wei Da Kingdom.
It was a loud and clear declaration.
Feng Ao Kuai was happy.
But at the same time, he felt complicated that he was not there to watch the process by himself. However, he knew that his current position was important as he had to guard this area to make sure that Zhang Xu Kingdom's soldiers would not breach in.
The war is not over yet.
In some places, it was only the beginning.
'There'll definitely be a celebratory banquet in that city, but since I'm still here, I guess I'll have to pass this time.' Feng Ao Kuai thought to himself.
After every large battle, it was normal for the Emperor to reward the generals and commanders who had done exceptional. But that would have to wait until the situation stabilized a bit more.
Anyway, Feng Ao Kuai was sure that he would miss the celebration this time.
The battle here is not done yet.
Zhang Xu Kingdom and Fei Yang Kingdom's tension and battles were still ongoing with neither side was willing to back down in the slightest bit.
'It'll be good if generals from Wei Da Kingdom are willing to switch over to Fei Yang Kingdom.'
But not all generals were willing to do that.
So Feng Ao Kuai could only wait to see what will happen in the future.
…
<Yi City, Previously Wei Da Kingdom's Capital City>
The Imperial Edict had arrived and General Long received it, changing the city's name to Yi City. From now on, this city will be known as Yi City and had no more relationship with the fallen Wei Da Kingdom.
Nan Hua and the others watched from the side as the ceremony was ongoing.
Well, to be exact, they had to kowtowed to the ground when the Imperial Edict was presented and read out. The etiquette was extremely strong.
After it was done, Nan Luo jumped up and stretched his body. "Who would be writing such a long essay for an edict? My back is now uncomfortable."
"For a commander who's famous, you sure got hurt easily," Feng Ao Si mocked.
Nan Luo rolled his eyes.
Nan Hua glanced at Long Qian Xing, who was walking to his father and talked a few words. She narrowed her eyes and glanced at Nan Luo. "Luo."
"Yes?"
"Young Master Long knows about me."
"Huh?" Nan Luo was confused and turned to look at Nan Hua when he saw her gesturing to her mask. It was then he realized that Nan Hua meant Long Qian Xing knew her real identity as Nan Hua, the young miss of Nan Family.
He was dumbstruck.
"How..? I mean... why?"
Nan Hua only stared back at Nan Luo and didn't answer.
However, Nan Luo felt really annoyed. Does it mean that he had to be on guard against Long Qian Xing all the time when they were here? He didn't like the thought that Long Qian Xing will definitely come to steal his sister away.
Even though they were almost 17 years old… he still felt that it was not a good thought to have.
(Nan Hua's birthday is in early winter, around 3 months from the current time. Right now, she's only 16 years old.)
Nan Luo looked at Nan Hua's face and didn't sense any rejection on her face. Knowing that it was indeed the time for his twin sister to begin thinking about her own happiness too... Nan Luo could only sigh.
"I thought that he will take longer to realize it."
"He's not completely stupid." Nan Hua looked at Long Qian Xing who had finished talking with his father. Even then, it took him 3 years to find out her real identity from the time when she left the capital city back then.
When Nan Hua left back then and prepared for the large battle that will happen, she was only 13 years old about to turn 14. Now, she's 16 years old about to turn 17.
For three whole years, neither side forgot each other.
| They worked on their own in order to be able to win the battle with as fewer casualties as possible.
And now, they will start to fight together.
Nan Hua's eyes flickered slightly.
"Is it really fine for him to know about it?" Nan Luo also noticed that Long Qian Xing was walking in their direction.
"Yes."
Since he had chosen her, she will also give him a chance. But there will only be one chance.
Nan Luo looked at Nan Hua's gaze and showed an ugly smile. He sighed deeply and tried his best to calm down. Even if he knew that this will happen in the future, he didn't really think that it would be this fast.
How annoying.
"Young Master Nan, First Young Master Feng," Long Qian Xing greeted them. He also nodded towards Nan Hua and called out, "Adjutant Nan."
"Young Commander Long, you don't have to be so polite." Nan Luo cupped his fist in return and looked at Long Qian Xing while trying to calm his inner heart that was in turmoil. "Is there anything that I can do to help?"
"His Highness Prince Wei Da Lang, the second prince is at the north. General Wei ordered us to go to the north to chase him and bring him back to Yi City." Long Qian Xing paused for a moment. "Dead or alive."
"Prince Wei Da Lang?" Feng Ao Si scratched the back of his head. "Isn't there already a prince that's left alive? How many princes are there in Wei Da Kingdom?"
"There are a total of 11 princes and 14 princesses. The one 'imprisoned' here is Prince Wei Da Fan, the sixth prince."
