Chapter 2228: Leave


    ?


    "There are some people I would like you to pay attention to," Emperor Yang Zhou replied. "Of course, you don''t have to do it yourself as you will be staying in Fei Yang Kingdom''s Capital City."


    Long Qian Xing nodded.


    Even though Emperor Yang Zhou didn''t say it explicitly, Long Qian Xing knew that what Emperor Yang Zhou wanted was for him to eliminate those who dared to make trouble. But when he did it, Long Qian Xing had to do it covertly and didn''t associate it with Emperor Yang Zhou.


    Long Qian Xing had some men under him and it was not impossible for him to contact some people to do the dirty work.


    But it was not a very good thing.


    "You don''t have anyone else to do this?" Long Qian Xing asked.


    "I already gave the instruction to some people for the first two kingdoms. What I''m paying attention now is the remnants of Shi Long Kingdom," Emperor Yang Zhou admitted.


    He sent different people to monitor every fallen kingdom''s imperial family. Even if there were already the guards there who will watch over them, but Emperor Yang Zhou wanted someone who could make a move against them.


    And Long Qian Xing is the perfect candidate.


    This was also because Great General Long, Long Ao Ming, was still at the south west area and dealt with the nobles who were making trouble.


    The remaining Imperial Family were being ''ignored.''


    Long Qian Xing looked at Emperor Yang Zhou and smiled faintly. "Will this be a formal appointment?"


    "No." Emperor Yang Zhou shook his head.


    "I understand."


    If Long Qian Xing were to be found out, it meant that he could never say that this was something that Emperor Yang Zhou ordered. Because this was not a formal appointment, it meant that this was only a verbal agreement between Long Qian Xing and Emperor Yang Zhou.


    In order words, Long Qian Xing was here to do the dirty works.


    Though, Long Qian Xing himself actually didn''t mind that much even if he was asked to do these things. He had killed so many people on the battlefield that he couldn''t count it anymore.


    Adding one or two more wouldn''t make too much difference.


    "Will you do it?" Emperor Yang Zhou arched his eyebrows.


    Long Qian Xing passed a look at Emperor Yang Zhou and then shrugged.


    Neither of them talked about this matter anymore because they realized what the other party wanted to do.


    Instead, they started to talk about various other matters.


    ...


    <Nan Hua''s side>


    Empress Dowager Yan, Yan Jin Nian had already arrived on the side room. Her eyes lit up when she saw Nan Hua and she smiled.


    "Congrattion for your marriage."


    "Thank you," Nan Hua replied and then asked, "Are you going to go, Your Highness?"


    "Your direct words makes me wonder if I''m really unnecessary here." Yan Jin Nian looked at Nan Hua speechlessly. But at the same time, she also knew that they were not really close with each other and only came across each other this time because Nan Hua needed her help. Without them needing each other, there was truly no need for them to interact with each other.


    Nan Hua looked at Yan Jin Nian calmly.


    "Yes, I''m here to say goodbye." Yan Jin Nian smiled and then said, "And I hope you can be happy with him. As much as I dislike him, I still hope for the best for him."


    The fact that Yan Jin Nian disliked Long Qian Xing was not exactly a secret for them. Even though Yan Jin Nian would not show it in public, but she would always dissed out Long Qian Xing in private.


    "I wish you to be happy for the rest of your life with Gu Xia Mo," Nan Hua said. "Thank you for your well wishes." Yan Jin Nian smiled brightly and sweetly. Whenever she thought about Gu Xia Mo, Yan Jin Nian would feel really happy.


    Nan Hua smiled faintly when she saw this.


    "Before I leave, I would like to chat a bit with you." Yan Jin Nian chuckled. "Just treat me as your old friend...."


    The two of them talked about nothing in particr. They just talked about things that happened recently, what to pay attention to when leaving, and many others.


    After around an incense stick of time, Yan Jin Nian sighed and stood up. "I should go. May the Heaven be with you, Hua''er."


    Nan Hua''s eyes flickered and she curtsied back. "May the Heaven be with you, Your Highness."


    Yan Jin Nian smiled and walked out of the side room.N?v(el)B\\jnn


    Now that her task here was done, she could leave and stay with Gu Xia Mo in Yi Shang Temple


    or other ces around. There was no specific destination as all Yan Jin Nian paid attention to


    was the fact that she would no longer be bound by this identity.


    Before long, Yan Jin Nian arrived at her carriage that was already prepared.


    "Your Highness." Her maidservants were there to serve her.


    "You may step down." Yan Jin Nian entered the carriage and the carriage started to head


    towards the city''s gate.


    She had been waiting for this for a long time.


    Now, she felt somewhat impatient.


    The carriage stopped as it lined up behind the other carriages that wanted to leave too. Normally, Yan Jin Nian would use her special privilege to bypass these carriages so that she could leave at the fastest speed possible.


    But not today.


    The carriage''s door on the other side was opened and Gu Xia Mo walked inside in a swift movement with the help of his manservant. The servant quickly went out again when he had settled Gu Xia Mo inside.


    "Is it ufortable?" Yan Jin Nian frowned when she saw Gu Xia Mo''s wrinkled clothes. He must have been waiting outside for a long time.


    "It''s nothing much." Gu Xia Mo chuckled and he looked at Yan Jin Nian with a bright smile. "Shall we go, Your Highness?"
