Chapter 1618 A Little Unexpected
A distance away from the two generals, Nan Si and Long Ai Ning were sitting in the kitchen. Nan Si didn't have anything to do and this time, he was dressed as a servant in the palace by switching with the 'spy' that was planted by Nan Hua in advance.
There were some of her people in many places who could be switched by those others when it was necessary to do some missions.
Long Ai Ning was brought by her older brother because of her cooking skill. In the past, Long Qian Xing didn't care much about food, so Long Ai Ning was simply doing her own business without caring about this matter.
Who would have thought that he would want her to prepare delicious food all the time for the two of them now?
Man in love is really different.
"You're really good at cooking. Did your master also ask you to help in the kitchen?" Long Ai Ning asked as she waited boringly. Her only hobby and things she liked to do was to fill her stomach with delicious food at any time she wanted.
With her brother's salary, she was able to live well and also cooked delicious food for him from time to time.
Though, her brother didn't seem to care about food that much.
He was truly a piece of wood who only cared about fulfilling his mission and didn't' care about other matters.
"No," Nan Si replied succinctly. He was good at knife because it was his main weapon to kill. Playing with the knife in his hand, he silently put it away agilely.
Long Ai Ning watched Nan Si's agile movement in awe. Even her brother couldn't do something like that trick.
"You're amazing. Can you teach me how to do that?"
"It's dangerous." Nan Si looked at Long Ai Ning's hand. Her hand was small and white, which was very different from his dark hand. Staying under the sun for so many years, his skin was tanned.
Though, he never cared that much because the roles he took over to follow Nan Hua has always been that of people who usually worked outside. This appearance made him easy to blend in.
Unremarkable and ordinary.
Tep.
Nan Hua noticed Long Ai Ning's gaze and then averted her eyes again. Long Xu's sister was truly a lively girl.
"We're detouring again?" Nan Hua asked.
"Yes. His Majesty is calling several people to the main hall in the afternoon to discuss several matters. It's better if we go through another way to get out." Long Qian Xing didn't want to bump Emperor Yang Zhou when he was doing some private and important discussion.
Anyway, there were many people of high stature or identity that Emperor Yang Zhou needed to talk with during his absent.
"Ok." Nan Hua nodded.
Long Qian Xing had the rough map of the route in the palace. It was not very accurate, but it was enough for him to be able to navigate through the entire palace and walked through some unusual routes.
The two of them didn't talk much and soon, they hear faint voices when they bypassed an empty palace.
A somewhat disturbing sound.
"Someone is really bold in broad daylight." Nan Hua looked at the wall beside her. She suddenly wondered whether the people in this era was truly reserved as it was said or not.
This sound was clearly the sound of... *cough*
Long Qian Xing pursed his lips and pulled Nan Hua to the side. He didn't want Nan Hua to hear something like that. Even if he knew that she might have encountered it in the past, there was no need to accumulate the number.
"...Princess Hu..."
Hearing the name called out, Nan Hua stopped in her steps. She glanced at the wall and blinked her black obsidian pupil eyes. That was not the voice of Shangguan Yu. Even though the voice was changed slightly due to the activities that was done over there, she could still recognize Shangguan Yu's voice.
So who's with Princess Hu?
