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.
The others seemed to have similar thought as they stood rooted on their places. Their eyes were watching the procession in front of them amidst the crowd noisy voice. Many people were excited by the coming of Great General Shangguan.
Who would not?
Great General Shangguan was one of the three great generals in Emperor Huan's era. If not because of the fact that Emperor Xuan was not someone who only paid more attention to his harem, Fei Yang Kingdom might have already started to take control of other kingdoms around the area.
What a pity that the generals were restricted during Emperor Xuan's Era.
Now that the current Emperor was Emperor Yang Zhou, many people wanted to know whether he would be following his grandfather's step or his father's steps.
"It's rare for Great General to come to the Capital City, right? What would happen if the frontline is attacked at this time?" Nan Luo asked curiously. With the two great generals staying still in the Capital City, wouldn't their frontline become a bit... problematic?
"It shouldn't be."
"Why?"
"When the great generals are sent to the Capital City, they would have made adequate preparation beforehand in their staying place. Even if they had to leave the battlefield for some time, it would not affect the defense." Feng Ao Kuai shrugged.
He had already learned about this matter from his father in the past. They would switch with each other and there were also army stationed at the nearby cities for backup. That way, the military would not completely depend on the three great generals.
However, it was known that with the three great generals around, the moral of the soldiers did reach another height.
One that couldn't be achieved by ordinary general.
"If there's a big war?"
"We have scouts." Or spies are more correct.
Besides, she really wanted to know what the Shangguan Family were planning to do.
"Who else are invited to Shangguan Family Residence?" Nan Luo asked curiously.
Feng Ao Kuai placed his piece on the board. "Nan Family will be there. There's also Chi Family and Long Family."
Chi Family, Long Family.
Nan Luo pursed his lips. Those two were also military family but General Chi had gone to the frontline not long ago. Only Young Commander Chi was left. Long Family was also in the similar condition.
"Other military family?"
"They're not in the Capital City right now. And other young commanders didn't have background as strong as Young Commander Chi and Young Commander Long." Feng Ao Kuai was silent for a while. "You can also say that Feng Family is invited since Young Commander Feng is also here."
Feng Ao Si was speechless.
For some reason, he felt that his younger brother's words were filled with sarcasm when mentioning him. Their father was not in the Capital City, but they were here because their grandfather was here.
Many other generals didn't have their family members in the Capital City, especially those who usually guarded areas that were far from here.
"You don't have military rank, Cousin Ao Kuai?" Nan Luo asked curiously.
Feng Ao Kuai shook his head. How could he have military rank when all he did was to stay at the back and avoided other people? He also had no interest to become a commander now since he still needed a lot of guidance.
Besides, what kind of idiot would follow the words of 11 years old boy?
"We've arrived."
There were several other carriages around. It was clear that the others were also waiting for the gate of Shangguan Family Residence to open.. For now, it was simply a waiting game for them.
