Chapter 654 A New Mission
Chapter 654 A New Mission
But the young Nan Hua endured.
She has always been good at enduring while silently hoping for the better future when her father finally acknowledged her.
A stupid wish from a young kid.
A wish that will never come true.
Nan Shu Cheng’s action simply caused the little girl to lose her hope. And the event that broke the final straw occurred the day Nan Luo broke in and saw that terrible mess in the residence.
It caused the strong young Nan Hua to completely broke down and no longer try to put on the cheerful face on her face.
Nan Hua closed her eyes and the memories were pushed back once more.
”Miss, would you like this servant to sneak some food?” Xiao Yun asked in a low voice.
”There’s no need.”
If Nan Hua really wanted to, she could travel all around Nan Shu Cheng’s Residence and no one would find out. However, she had been wanting to visit this place officially because she didn’t want to use her martial arts and sneaked around.
Her legs moved to the side as she pulled the drawer. Most of them were empty, but she noticed that one of them was locked. Taking out one of her hairpin, Nan Hua tinkered with the lock.
Click.
Pulling the drawer open, Nan Hua looked at the row of bamboo scrolls inside and read the content on by one.
Behind her, Xiao Yun tactfully stood before the door, guarding it dutifully. She would make sure that no one would pay a visit when Nan Hua was busy reading all of those… whatever it was.
Not long afterwards, Mu Yan came to bring some food for her. Xiao Yun showed some sign and Mu Yan also stood there dutifully.
The two of them knew that they had to make sure no one disturbed Nan Hua.
Whether Nan Hua would be staying inside or sneaking away, the two of them would never try to figure it out. All they knew is that they had to make sure that no one would be able to find out that Nan Hua was away or disturb her from what she wanted to do.
Click.
Nan Hua had finished reading and returned everything back to its rightful place. It was really peaceful in this ancestral room without anyone who would possibly bother her like her half sister.
If she was the original Nan Hua, would she be this calm?
This place had caused the young Nan Hua to suffer a lot in the past. A child being locked in this dark and quiet place without any food or water for the entire night, it would be impossible for her not to have nightmare.
But Nan Hua couldn’t remember.
She didn’t remember how the young her managed to survive in this place.
The memory regarding this matter seemed to have been completely blocked. All that she could see was the picture of her copying some scriptures but didn’t completely explain what had happened here.
Nan Hua lowered her eyes.
Her memory has always been weird.
This made her unable to truly figure out what had actually happened in the young Nan Hua’s past that caused her to have such ending in the novel.
Only bits and pieces of information was available for her.
Nan Hua stood silently.
”Any report?” She asked in a low voice without even turning around.
Fei Mao had sneaked inside and tried his best to stay on the roof. When he heard Nan Hua’s words, he quickly replied, “Miss, there’s a request from Young Master Long.”
Request from Long Qian Xing?
Nan Hua swiftly turned around and Fei Mao threw the bamboo scrolls towards her. The content was the mission that Long Qian Xing issued towards Dark Moon Organization along with the reward he promised.
’A special mission so soon?’
Reading the content that contained the brief detail, Nan Hua understood what had happened right away.
The assassination at the palace.
It was time for that event.
When Emperor Yang Zhou finally started to show his card and pulled Empress Dowager Mei from her seat, some people decided that it was time for them to move. They would send a lot of assassins to the palace after a long period of preparation.
Whether they succeed or not would depend on the night raid.
But Long Qian Xing had already found out about their plan, which was why they make some modification. There were several places that would be attacked, which would deplete the manpower that Long Qian Xing had.
It was an event depicted in the story.
Nan Hua knew that.
And in the story, there was no Dark Moon Organization at all. This organization didn’t come because they were basically already destroyed on the surface because of the battle on the Xia Mountain.
’Should I participate?’
There were things that Nan Hua knew she would be able to do if she were to come. Participating in this event was easy for her because she had her own people who had infiltrated the palace.
They were just low level member.
But they would be useful.
And Nan Hua knew the after effect of this battle was something that was quite severe for Long Qian Xing. Her participating will definitely allow him ease the burden on his back.
The burden he carried because of his dream, position, and responsibility.
”Tell them that Master Jiu will come.” Nan Hua put the scroll towards the fireplace. No one shall know about this matter at all aside from the two of them.
Fei Mao gulped down and cupped his fist before disappearing as fast as possible. The moment he heard Nan Hua’s decision, he could feel his heart shaken. At this moment, he had a hunch.
A hunch that told him that whatever would happen later would definitely shake the entire Fei Yang Kingdom, but he was not qualified to even know about it. All he could do was to quietly become the messenger for these real participants.
