Chapter 814: Nan Family Trial and Result (12)

Chapter 814: Nan Family Trial and Result (12)Nan Shu Cheng no longer had that much interest in her and instead looked towards Concubine Su. Concubine Su had a bit of a similar appearance to Nan Hua's mother, but she was more seductive and flirty.

However, she managed to pull Nan Shu Cheng away from Qu Fei Jiao.

No matter how similar the two of them were, Concubine Su was a natural seductress and seemed to be able to attract Nan Shu Cheng's attention. In that messy residence, she kept attracting his attention, making Qu Fei Jiao's eyes turn red in anger.

Even though Nan Shu Cheng was trying hard not to remember Madam Nan, those who were similar to her always attracted his attention first. It was as if his instinct was guiding him toward those who were actually in his heart.

Qu Fei Jiao was annoyed and wanted to flare up.

But what could she do?

She tried her best to make Nan Shu Cheng look in her direction, but it failed again and again.

And the battle in the residence turned into a heated battle from time to time, the turmoil that didn't seem to end at all.

It was so tiring.

She lost her power in Nan Shu Cheng Residence.

Her entire family was wiped out yesterday.

Isn't it the same as Nan Shu Cheng's first wife?

Qu Fei Jiao only felt a drop of tear trickle out of the corner of her eyes before she couldn't see anything else.

In this battle of schemes and all, who had actually won and who had actually lost? Even when she felt that she had won when she obtained Nan Shu Cheng's affection, it all turned into nothing in the end.

Men were fickle.

If only she hadn't given her heart to the wrong person, would it be possible for her ending to be different?

But even with that thought, Qu Fei Jiao knew that the young her would never even try to consider that even for a moment. She had already been doomed for this end when she decided on this path.

She fell in love with the person whom she had only seen for the first time.

If she had never sneaked out to see the guest who came for her father back then, would she end up walking this thorny path?

For her grandfather to lose such a noble title for her and her twin brother... was it worth it?

But perhaps it was because of them that Old Master Nan was willing to give it up. Without the existence of his descendant, what was the worth of this noble title? It would just be an empty title beside his name.

Old Master Nan didn't need it.

And he had long felt regret for not being able to protect his two grandchildren. Everything that had happened in the past couldn't be changed. All he could do was to make sure that the two of them would not be hindered in this matter in the future.

So for Old Master Nan, it was a small price to pay.

Other people would think that he had paid a huge price, but for Old Master Nan, it was just a small price if he could keep the lives of his two grandchildren.

The two of them deserved to live better after the past he had given to them because of his incompetence.

He didn't want to drag their future.

They had lost their mother because of his son and Old Master Nan didn't want them to lose more things because of what Nan Shu Cheng had done. Let him bear it and allow these two children to be free.

They will have a different future they had fought for.

He will be helping in the background, allowing them to grow freely and spread their wing far away.

At the same time, Old Master Nan looked at the official who spoke for Prime Minister Lan and him. He naturally recognized the other party as Xian Si. He used to be with Prime Minister Bei and had quite the ability as a military strategist.

It was also thanks to him that Prime Minister Bei was able to have some achievements in terms of the military.

However, his wide vision allowed him to rise even higher as he chose to become an official in the palace. His division mostly talked about war and so on, which was his specialty. The strategy that he had proposed from time to time was useful and had been used during the previous war.

It was estimated that there were still many other ideas that could be used in future wars that Xian Si hadn't said yet.

Now that Prime Minister Bei had gone, the most probably person to replace him was this Xian Si.

'For him to talk on behalf of me... this Xian Si is really not simple.'

Old Master Nan sighed internally. The political intrigue was very tiring and draining him mentally. Today has been a long day for him. He really wished he could go home and rest.
