Chapter 1519 Wind is Blowing


    In Zhang Xu Kingdom''s Capital City, many people watched the formerly honored prime minister death.


    Some people grieved.


    Some people were relieved.


    Some people were conflicted.


    Emperor Zhang Hou Tian looked at the person who used to serve him and snorted and turned around. He didn''t want to see this person ever again.


    Among the few people who were watching was Si Bai, Si Mo Fan''s son. He was still at the Capital City as the son inw of Lu Family and currently have rtively low and rxing position.


    Looking at Prime Minister Lei''s death, he sighed deeply.


    ''The battle of power is very cruel.''


    Prime Minister Lei might or might not have the n of rebellions but under the guide of the officials who kept on blowing the news to Emperor Zhang Hou Tian''s ear, this young emperor finally fell.


    He chose to believe them.


    And now, this is the end of Prime Minister Lei.


    Si Bai slowly made his way to Lu Family, nning to ask his wife to make a trip to pay a visit to his grandfather inw. Now that Prime Minister Lei had passed away, it was time for him to show his real self in front of the person with the highest power in Lu Family.


    After all, he still wished the Lu Family could stay intact after Fei Yang Kingdome here and take over the Capital City.


    …


    <Long distance away from the Capital City, Nan Hua''s location at the long border between Zhang Xu Kingdom and Fei Yang Kingdom>


    The news of Prime Minister Lei''s death and also the arrival of General Min to the frontline spread out.


    Nan Hua was not surprised by this development.


    In the story she read, Prime Minister Lei will be ordered execution because the key ministers in Zhang Xu Kingdom''s court were bribed by Emperor Yang Zhou and his men, including by Long Qian Xing.


    These people made Emperor Zhang Hou Tian unable to trust Prime Minister Lei, finally putting this powerful minister to death with his own hand.


    If he knew that the very person who could probably save Zhang Xu Kingdom was Prime Minister Lei, would he have regretted his decision until his intestine green?


    "This is war. Everything is fair in war."


    How many generals have died under the order of their own Emperor whom they sworn loyalty?


    How many Emperor was finally killed by their own trusted general and have their throne taken away?


    History recorded these things.


    The cycle of power and those who could stand at the end was the victor. No matter what method they used, whether they were treacherous, cunning, insidious, or whatever, the final result was that they won.


    With these tricks, they achieved their goal and obtained the highest power.


    Nan Hua closed her eyes.


    Being thrown in the time of struggle, she could feel the desire for power and glory from these people very clearly. Reading about it and seeing it personally gave her apletely different feeling.


    "General Min is not a match against Great General Wei." Nan Hua took out a scroll and wrote several instructions.


    Her appearance did help.


    But it only hastened the time and not exactly changing what these people had been nning and doing.


    In the original timeline, the death of Prime Minister Lei should have happened near autumn with more losses in the soldiers. But now, Prime Minister Lei was executed in spring.


    A few months earlier than the supposed time.


    "Prepare for battle." Nan Hua raised her head. "We''re going to Zhang Xu Kingdom''s Capital City."


    "Yes!"


    …


    <Not long distance away from Nan Hua, Long Qian Xing''s location>


    Because Long Qian Xing was with Nan Hua, he naturally also heard the news of Prime Minister Lei''s death.


    Looking at the piece of news handed to him, he sighed.


    Those who had power really have to be careful. Anything could happen and even the person whom they previously trusted could turn their back against them. Only a few people could actually willingly treat others well for a lifetime.


    Many times, other people would not care about it and simply treated the rtionship with others as nothing more but transaction. When the others were doing well, they curried favor with them. When they were not doing well, they were simply abandoned on the ditch.


    That was simply how cruel the reality is.


    "Finally he took the bait. It''s been quite a while." Long Qian Xing stood up calmly. He was different from Nan Hua who rarely came into contact with the internal messy problems like this. Ever since he was young he had already known many dirty things that happened below the supposedly beautiful surface.


    His act was simply to make sure that these cunning old foxes couldn''t take advantage of him and making him their pawn. But he also knew that he had to be careful in his every move.


    Because the wrong move meant that he might be presenting himself on the chopping board for these b*stard.


    Thus the act of backstabbing, bribing, ndering, and many others were extremelymon in Long Qian Xing''s eyes. At the same time, he knew very well that his real self was not something that could actually be shown in front of others.


    Behind the gentlemanly act he showed was a self that would not hesitate to scheme against others and take advantage of other people for his own sake.


    "It''s time."


    Long Qian Xing walked out of his tent calmly.


    What he had learnt from those sugar coated world was the world of indifference and ruthlessness.


    He turned to the side, looking at Nan Hua who came out.


    A smile tugged on the corner of his lips.


    But even if the world was really dark, he also had things he wished to protect. He''s still a normal human being with feelings and desire.


    It was only his methods that might not be eptable for many righteous and kind people.
