Chapter 1192 The Scroll Of History



That answer made Long Qian Xing so happy.

He grinned so stupidly after hearing the answer as if he had won the lottery. Even though he knew that he would have to work hard to be able to truly enter Nan Hua's life, but she was already giving him permission to slowly enter.

This made him so happy.

Seeing the foolish grin on Long Qian Xing's face, Nan Hua was silent. Why did she suddenly feel that this Long Qian Xing was somewhat... cute?

The two of them looked at each other and Long Qian Xing slowly released his hand that gripped Nan Hua's wrist. After being released by Long Qian Xing, Nan Hua entered the narrow passage to go back to the previous room.

Behind her, Long Qian Xing was following, still reeling in the feeling of happiness.

The two of them didn't talk about it, but they also knew that even if they wanted to be together, things wouldn't be so easy. The proposal made by Kuang Shen back then had told Long Qian Xing many things about why Nan Hua was backing away.Th.ê most uptodate novels are published on n(0)velbj)n(.)co/m

It was because she understood that if she didn't back away, the lives of so many unrelated people would be on the line.

The two of them were no longer ordinary people.

They were also the leaders of their people. They had to understand that this decision of theirs would affect the lives of so many people.

Right now, they were not just teenagers who couldn't see the truth that was slapped right in front of their faces. If the price for them to stay together was the lives of so many unrelated people, could they still stay calm?

That was why both sides were trying to figure out another method.

As the scroll unfurled, Nan Hua could see the content very clearly. The word was somewhat fading due to the influence of time, but it could still be read.

It was the Imperial Edict for Duke Wei as the reward for eliminating the rebels and unrest in this area.

"After settling the unrest, Duke Wei declared the area as his territory that has some independency but still paid loyal tribute to the kingdom. It's still under the same kingdom. However, things later changed when these states suddenly declare that they're going to become a kingdom.

Eventually, there are 6 kingdoms on the land. And only these Imperial Edicts are the remainders that the entire area used to be one and will eventually become one again."

Long Qian Xing saw that Nan Hua had finished reading and slowly returned the scroll to its original state and put it inside the bamboo tube.

"Every kingdom but Zhang Xu Kingdom had this scroll. Emperor Yang Zhou wanted to collect all of them. As long as the other kingdoms still kept these Imperial Edicts, there will be a way to figure out where it is."

Nan Hua nodded.

She knew his plan now.

These Imperial Edicts were indeed the best proof.

As for why Zhang Xu Kingdom didn't have any, it was because Zhang Xu Kingdom was the direct descendant of the previous kingdom's Imperial Family. The other kingdoms were made by these 'dukes' who declared their independency as a separate kingdom.

Some of the dukes have relationship with the Imperial Family but some others were not.

However, they all changed their surname when they declared their own kingdom, which was why all the 6 kingdoms Imperial Family have different surname.

Fei Yang Kingdom was also used to be a dukedom.

Though, Nan Hua didn't know whether the founder was a prince or an accomplished person. The history record had long been missing because of various reasons.

But these bits and pieces were enough for Nan Hua to understand the overall picture.
