FORGOTTEN LEGEND OF THE BLOODIED FLOWER

Chapter 1147: Switching One’s Allegiance



Chapter 1147: Switching One’s Allegiance

“You don’t have to understand.” Feng Ao Kuai knew that Nan Luo was feeling conflicted. He thought for a moment then added, “You just have to know that not everyone feels a sense of belonging with their own kingdom.”         

Some people care.     

Some people didn’t care.     

And those who didn’t care wouldn’t feel anything much even if he had to move from this kingdom to another kingdom. If other kingdom could offer him more than what his kingdom could offer, he would not mind switching his allegiance.     

This thing happened a lot for the past century.     

Because the six kingdoms were all basically kingdoms with similar culture, language, and even had history of being one state centuries ago. But because of how history developed, they eventually split.     

Some people didn’t think that these kingdoms were any different.     

But there were people who couldn’t think that way.     𝐧𝒐𝑽𝑒𝓵𝔫𝑒xt.𝓬𝗈𝔪

“As long as you can live, what would ordinary people think about the people at the highest seat? They will not care and will simply live their lives without caring for such thing.” Feng Ao Kuai patted Nan Luo’s shoulder. “Let’s go, we didn’t have to stay here and watch them.”     

“Mhm.”     

Nan Luo knew that many ordinary people usually didn’t care that much. What they cared was whether they could still eat and live well.     

If he was not part of Nan Family, he might want to live that kind of life.     

He didn’t need to worry about anything but whether he could eat or not and how tomorrow would be.     

But he couldn’t.     

As the grandson of Great General Nan and also a young commander himself, he had responsibility towards his family, his men, and Fei Yang Kingdom. People who were given more will be asked to do more in accordance to their capabilities.     

That was why Nan Luo wouldn’t betray Fei Yang Kingdom.     

As long as the kingdom didn’t force him to the death’s end, Nan Luo will never even think of that possibility. He wanted to live but not the kind of life where he had to bear with the shame of betraying his kingdom.     

Not far from Nan Luo, Nan Hua was watching everything calmly.     

General Duan’s decision was something that she had already anticipated because this event didn’t change from the story. He was a small person who cared more of his family rather than his kingdom.     

If he could protect his family and his men by switching his side, he will willingly do that.     

A caring person.     

Probably, someone like him was not suitable to be a general, but it was not Nan Hua’s position to say anything.     

Slowly, Nan Hua lowered her eyes and walked away.     

How Fei Yang Kingdom wanted to use General Duan in the future was not her business. And how much they would trust him was also up to them. Nan Hua will not interfere with Fei Yang Kingdom’s decision.     

      

…         

    

Even though General Duan practically switching his allegiance towards Fei Yang Kingdom and said that he would side with them, there was no way Fei Yang Kingdom will use him immediately.     

Just before, he was fighting against them.     

And now he was in their side?     

Fei Yang Kingdom would need to prepare for his participation after they had made sure that he will surely follow them.     

For the time being, he was being confined in his residence.     

General Duan could see the soldiers from Fei Yang Kingdom moving around in Da Yi City but he was helpless to do anything to help. His soldiers were being locked too and were not allowed to carry weapons.     

And the soldiers who chose to side with Wei Da Kingdoms were all killed.     

He couldn’t do anything about that.     

His steward and adjutant accompanied him after making requests countless times. They looked at their Master and felt bitter in their heart.     

Wei Da Kingdom’s people were yelling at him, saying that he was a traitor and didn’t deserve to be a general of Wei Da Kingdom. Many people were cursing the Duan Family and avoided them.     

But General Duan stayed calm.     

He was not a young and impulsive man. Since he had made this decision, it was clear that he also knew the consequences and the misery that Duan Family will experience.     

Many other generals had also experienced such thing.     

After all, switching one’s allegiance had occurred from time to time because of their kingdoms’ special circumstances in this era.     

“General Duan, Young Commander Duan is here.”     

General Duan didn’t turn around.     

He could hear his son walking in his direction, but he didn’t want to see this first son of his at all. This first son of his had disappointed him so much that he didn’t know what else should he say.     

“Father! Why did you do that? The entire Wei Da Kingdom will now hate us!” Duan Shang Yi shouted angrily.     

When he came out of the prison, he understood very well that his father had already given up. It was also because of his realization that he was filled with hatred and indignation.     

He wanted to live.     

But he didn’t want to be the traitor of Wei Da Kingdom!     

There must be some other way to settle this!     

General Duan didn’t answer his first son’s accusation. His adjutant and steward stood at the side respectfully and lowered their head, not wanting to participate in this quarrel between family members.     

“Duan Family is not like that! Why don’t you do anything? Do you want to watch your sons, daughters, and grandchildren suffered from this humiliation! Father! Why don’t you answer me!” Duan Shang Yi was almost hysterical.         

General Duan sighed.     

“When you first agreed to help Young Commander Kui, have you ever thought that he’s only using you?”     

Duan Shang Yi’s voice stopped.     

He looked at his father in disbelief and opened his mouth then closed it again. For some reason, he had the feeling that his father knew about his agreement with Young Commander Kui and everything.
