2193 Plans and Promise
Beside Nan Luo, Feng Ao Kuai was still playing the second game with Long Qian Xing. His game proceeded slower compared to Old Master Nan and Nan Luo since he thought more with his every steps. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
In this way, Feng Ao Kuai had only lost once.
And Long Qian Xing also had to think more carefully when playing against Feng Ao Kuai because their previous game nearly end in his loss. It was clear that the pressure was high in this game. "The situation of Fei Yang Kingdom is not very good in the Capital City. Even though the atmosphere is peaceful, you should know that the water here is deep and there are several small factions," Old Master Nan said calmly. He had been staying in Fei Yang Kingdom's Capital City for a period of time, so Old Master Nan was very clear that whatever peace that they could see on the surface, it was nothing more than a false impression.
The impression that was brought forward by those officials' fake performance.
But even then, it was good for the ordinary people not to know about the confrontation of the officials. Because if they noticed it, it meant that the current situation in Fei Yang Kingdom's Capital City had reached such a crisis. Right now, they were still facing two more kingdoms.
So even if there were some conflicts here and there, they didn't dare to overstep their bounds. Because if they did, Emperor Yang Zhou would not hesitate to punish them severely as he still wanted to focus on winning the war. The officials also didn't want to lose.
Everyone had invested a lot for this war.
Long Qian Xing nodded thoughtfully.
When he went to the battlefield many years ago, there were already several upheaval in Fei Yang Kingdom's Capital City because of Emperor Yang Zhou's moves and later on, Old Master Nan's chaos. Because of this, many new officials had to be appointed and there were more examinations.
Not to mention, conquering cities also required them to send officials later on.
Some old and new officials were sent away. As a result, the people in the Imperial Court were now mostly new faces that Long Qian Xing didn't know. Only some people remained the same such as Prime Minister Lan, Prime Minister Xian, and Song Chuan.
Long Qian Xing still knew them even though his relationship with Prime Minister Xian was not very good. Now that he wanted to stay here, Emperor Yang Zhou might want him to come to the court from time to time. He had to familiarize himself with the other officials. In this way, they wouldn't be able to take advantage of him when he was here. Thinking about this, Long Qian Xing sighed slightly. It was troublesome.
Yet at the same time, Long Qian Xing also knew it was inevitable. He wanted to live peacefully and comfortably with Nan Hua, so he had to face these people sooner or later. It would be better to settle these troubles as soon as possible. "I understand," Long Qian Xing repled. Old Master Nan nodded. "Good. Ao Kuai can give you some list for you to memorize."
Feng Ao Kuai?
Long Qian Xing turned his head to look at Feng Ao Kuai and then saw the board in front of him. His lips twitched when he saw that he had been locked by Feng Ao Kuai. It seemed that this man took advantage when he was thinking hard to make harder move since he didn't have much time to think. Feng Ao Kuai smiled and then took out a bamboo scroll. He put it beside the board and said, "You may take this later, Young Master Long."
