Chapter 194 - Great General Shangguan Return

"There's also an interesting piece of news." Nan Luo looked at the others. "Great General Shangguan is going to return to the Capital City."

"Great General Shangguan? I thought it's only General Shangguan." Feng Ao Kuai looked at Nan Luo and furrowed. Great General Shangguan referred to Old General Shangguan, who was already in his advance age. He used to be the leading figure alongside the two other great general at the battlefield during Emperor Huan's reigns.

By now, he was the only great general who was still active at the battlefield.

The other two great generals were Great General Long and Great General Nan. Great General Long had died due to the wars back then. Great General Nan could no longer return to the frontline anytime soon and even when he returns, he would not be as vigorous as he once was.

General Shangguan refer to Great General Shangguan's first son. He was Shangguan Yi and the several other whom they had met's uncle. Due to his ambition that lied on the battlefield, he left his wife in the Capital City and rarely came back.

As a result, his children have obvious age gap.

However, they were all also very ambitious and wished to be like their father, roaming around the battlefield freely.

"Shangguan Yi couldn't possibly report you to his grandfather, right?" Feng Ao Si passed a look at Nan Luo.

Nan Luo was speechless. "Why would he want to do that? If he's looking for a spank, he can get it from easier method that would not earn him instant death."

True.

Feng Ao Kuai furrowed his eyebrows. While he knew that Shangguan Yi was stupid, Great General Shangguan was not. If they insisted on investigating this matter, they might end up having to back down because he was not sure whether there was any evidence left or not.

He turned to look at Nan Hua and upon seeing that the young girl was calm, he subconsciously also relaxed. He might have not realized it yet, but he had long treated Nan Hua as someone whom he could depend on. Even if she was actually younger than him by a year's time, he still trusted her greatly.

"If they investigate it, how will it go?" Feng Ao Si was curious.

"They'll have to investigate the previous one." Nan Luo smirked. "Do they think I'll let them off when the horses are getting angry two times in just the span of two days."

Nan Hua didn't say anything and continued her training quietly. She was using a completely different concoction compared to the one that was used by those people before. Not that she knew what they used, but what she used was one that could easily agitate animals that she knew from the modern world.

It was completely different than what usually used here.

As for why there was a grand procession...

Wasn't it obvious that a war hero would obtain such good treatment because of his capabilities?

Not a single one of them wanted to be on the man's bad side.

Not that they even had a chance.

It was not like Great General Shangguan would even remember who come to meet him on the street.

"Let's go."

"Yes."

Aside from Nan Hua, who would be staying inside the carriage, the other three would be going down the street to look at Great General Shangguan's return.

"Do you remember when Grandfather return in the past, it's also this lively." Nan Luo grinned. He still could remember that when he heard of his grandfather's return, he rushed out without a care of anything in the world.

Feng Ao Kuai passed a look at Nan Luo. "I only heard that there's a brat who stopped the procession because he fell on the path."

"...I was too panicked."

"I never said that it's you."

Nan Luo's face darkened. Who else if it was not him? At that time, he was only hoping that his grandfather would bring him and his twin sister away from Nan Family Residence. Thankfully, it was the first thing that Old Master Nan did when he visited the Nan Family Residence.

His father couldn't do anything in front of his grandfather.

"He's here."

Looking at the crowd, Nan Luo was not in the mood to try moving forward.. He might even end up dying because of trying to squeeze his way in.
