Chapter 1587 Departure From Liang City
The two brothers looked at each other and then walked to their separate army. They would be having their journey together but Feng Ao Si wouldn’t go to the Capital City. Instead, he would stop at the intersection before heading towards Sheng Village.
His wife is still there.
His mother was already heading towards the Capital City, though.
A few days ago, Feng Ao Kuai sent her a letter saying that he would go to Fei Yang Kingdom’s Capital City. With Nan Si Qiao already wanting to arrange her son’s marriage so badly, she definitely departed right away.
Feng Ao Si sighed quietly when he thought about this.
This year, Feng Ao Kuai would be 20 years old. It meant that he could get married if he wanted to.
Thus, Nan Si Qiao was already anxious.
*neigh*
The horse neighed as the soldiers rode on their respective horse.
Nan Hua was also riding on a horse. When she was a young lady, she would ride on a carriage. But since she came here as the general instead of the young miss of Nan Family, she would not take the carriage.
“Great General Nan,” Nan Hua greeted her grandfather politely.
Old Master Nan looked at Nan Hua and snorted.
Nan Hua looked at her grandfather helplessly and rubbed the tip of her nose. Her grandfather was dissatisfied that she came as Jun Hua instead of Nan Hua. This made him unable to interact with her as he wished to.
But she didn’t want to blow herself up, alright?
There was no need for everyone to know that Princess Jun Hua who was famous on the battlefield was actually the shy and quiet Young Miss Nan from Nan Family.
Old Master Nan waved to Nan Hua and then walked to the front. If he had to admit, he didn’t want to travel together with these people. Unfortunately, it would be impossible for him to avoid this duty.
“I see that you’re healthy now, Great General Nan.” Prime Minister Lan cupped his fist in greeting when he saw Old Master Nan coming.
“I can say the same to you, Prime Minister Lan.” Old Master Nan cupped his fist in return and snorted.
Prime Minister Lan smiled. “I was surprised to see you come here in person. Have you finished your recuperation period?”
For the past few years, Old Master Nan refused to lead any offense on the grounds that he was already old and no longer healthy. Considering that his grandsons were already at marriageable age or approaching, it was indeed another factor that couldn’t be forgotten.
Thus, it was really hard for anyone to pester Old Master Nan to lead the soldiers.
The moment he said that he was already old, no one could say that he was young unless they were against their conscience.
lightsΝοvel He should be 60 to 70 something?
Prime Minister Lan was not entirely sure.
“It should be fine for me to get some fresh air. But the doctors still didn’t recommend me to have intense exercise.” Old Master Nan sneered.
Prime Minister Lan spread his hand. Anyway, there were already a lot of other generals in Fei Yang Kingdom. Even without Old Master Nan, they would be able to continue to thrive.
“Many people are missing you on the battlefield.”
“Don’t worry, there’s my successor out there.” Old Master Nan pointed his chin towards Nan Luo, who was walking back into the city. Nan Luo would not follow them and only came here to say his goodbye.
It might take a few months or even years before they could see each other again in the future.
After all Great General Wei wouldn’t let Nan Luo off lightly for coveting his daughter.
Towards this, Old Master Nan would step back and let Nan Luo take the stage. He believed that his grandson would be able to convince his future father in law.
“It wouldn’t be the same without you.” Prime Minister Lan laughed, recalling the past when he was beaten up by Old Master Nan during training. He was considered as a weak general by Old Master Nan and there was nothing that Prime Minister Lan could say to refute.
He was indeed far weaker than many other generals.
“Most of my old friends had already passed away. It’s not fun to play with the youngsters.” Old Master Nan shrugged.
“Great General Ji is still active on the frontline.”
“He’s no longer as sharp as when he’s young.” Old Master Nan thought of his old friend and the news that spread from Fan Yi Kingdom. “His disciple surnamed Song has been replacing him again and again.”
Prime Minister Lan nodded. He had heard of this youngster surnamed Song too. From many people’s perspective, he was a young strategist who was comparable to Long Qian Xing among the younger generations.
Fighting against Fan Yi Kingdom would prove to be a challenge.
But since they had decided on this path, they would definitely continue their battle until it was over.
“That will be a battle of the younger generation later.”
“Indeed.”
“You’re not worried.”
“This is no longer my stage.” Old Master Nan laughed. “I just want to spend the rest of my time in peace.”
Prime Minister Lan nodded. He was younger than Old Master Nan, but even he already felt quite tired lately. Age had started to catch up to them. Time couldn’t stop and thus, they knew that sooner or later, they would no longer have any place to play the role.
It was time for the next generation.
“His Majesty would like to talk to you.”
“I see.” Old Master Nan lead his horse towards Emperor Yang Zhou, who was staying in the middle of the entire formation. They were all getting ready to depart under Emperor Yang Zhou’s lead.
“Great General Nan greets Your Majesty.”
Emperor Yang Zhou looked at Old Master Nan and nodded. There was only one thing that he wanted to talk with this old general who had served ever since his grandfather’s era. “Great General Nan, will you continue to take on the sword?”
