Chapter 448 Interest (2)

Chapter 448 Interest (2)

Song Chuan glanced at Lin Yuan and silently lit a candle for the young merchant in his heart. He felt that no matter how many years it has been, Lin Yuan would never grow up.

Lin Yuan gnashed his teeth and steeled his heart. "That man said that you don't like having an arranged marriage."

That man.

The only reason why Lin Yuan didn't dare to say the name was because the person he was talking about was the current Emperor, Emperor Yang Zhou. If he were to utter the name, there would be a lot of people who turned their head to look in his direction.

"He did?" Song Chuan was surprised.

The two of them knew that Long Qian Xing and Emperor Yang Zhou were close. They also had a chance to meet with Emperor Yang Zhou privately a few times, but they didn't manage to discuss a lot.

Hearing what Lin Yuan said, Song Chuan wondered just what did Lin Yuan talked with Emperor Yang Zhou back then.

Long Qian Xing's eyes flickered. He remembered that when he had just come to this world, he felt that having an arranged marriage was a drag. Because in his original world, marriage was mostly based on their will and not arranged. He accidentally blurted out his thoughts back then.

Of course, he never had any intention to break it without any proper reason. Emperor Yang Zhou even looked at him in the face and said seriously to consider about this matter. If he did have a solid reason, Emperor Yang Zhou didn't mind intervening by giving an Imperial Edict.

But Long Qian Xing hadn't even met Nan Hua back then and only knew her from the memory, so he let it be.

After meeting Nan Hua, Long Qian Xing didn't really think much about her. But yesterday.... He realized that the young Nan Hua had grown to be very beautiful, much more than his expectation.

He knew that he had some interests now.

The arrangement that his grandfather and grandmother made when he was still a kid didn't seem to be that bad anymore.

However, her expression remained cold and placid.

"Eh, isn't that Second Young Miss Nan?" Lin Yuan finally noticed that Long Qian Xing was still paying close attention at Nan Hua.

"Second Young Miss Nan?" Long Qian Xing asked. It was only now he felt that his knowledge over Nan Family was a bit lacking. While he knew about Nan Hua's father and also that annoying concubine, he didn't pay much attention to her half siblings.

It seemed that he had to ask his men to pay more attention to Nan Family in the future.

"Yes... don't tell me that you don't know her?"

"I don't."

Lin Yuan was speechless but thinking about how Long Qian Xing spent most of his time at the frontline, he chose to tell more about the Nan Family. Beside him, Song Chuan also added a few more points to let him know the situation over there.

Long Qian Xing listened carefully. He had known some matters but some others were still new to him.

For example, he had just found out that Nan Xin spread some news about Nan Hua in the noble girls' circle. Because Nan Hua was in Wind City, it was impossible for her to refute the words openly.

"She's not a good person." Lin Yuan scoffed. "Unfortunately, I can't participate directly in the women's battle."

"She won't lose."

"Huh?"

The other two turned to look at Long Qian Xing but the young man didn't bother to look at them. He himself was a bit surprised that he had such a high opinion about Nan Hua even though he had never seen her fought against other women in a battle of words before.

It was a bit strange.

His eyes continued to follow Nan Hua as he noticed that Shangguan Die had somehow joined the fray.
