1066 Jun Family

"We're here." Nan Luo looked at the city and then waved his hand. Honestly, his role in coming here was mostly to monitor the people. The villagers only have fewer number of people, but it was a different case when it came to cities.

There were more people.

And some people would be trying to pay the soldiers in order to put their family's name away from the conscription list.

Especially those with only one son.

They didn't want their son to be brought to the frontline and fought with his life.

They just wanted him to stay.

But the rules were the rules. These people would have to be brought to the frontline because the kingdom needed more people to fight in war.

"I'll watch the officials." Feng Ao Kuai had no interest towards this Han Zhui City. He knew that Nan Luo also wanted to pay a visit to his mother's family, so he volunteered to keep the watch in the square to make sure that all families registered the males in their family.

Those who eventually didn't reach the camp will be labeled as traitors and their family members would be executed.

It was a harsh punishment.

That was why many families just wished to be able to erase their family's name as it was the only method to get away from this matter.

"Thanks, Ao Kuai."

"Don't take too long."

"I won't." Nan Luo waved his hand and jumped down from his horse. He was still wearing his military armor, coupled with the difference in the design, even those who were not part of the military would know that this little brat was the commander.

Nan Luo's height and youthful face might be a bit unconvincing. However, the soldiers respected him very much, which was more than enough to tell others about his high rank.

The officials who had received the message quickly stepped forward.

A group was coming with Feng Ao Kuai.

And a few people gathered around Nan Luo.

They would be the biggest idiot if they couldn't see that Nan Luo and Feng Ao Kuai were both the highest ranked commander among the people who came. Their armor was different and the soldiers were maintaining formation with them as the center.

Despite their youthful face, the officials didn't dare to neglect their duty in the slightest bit.

"This city is a bit big. Can everyone gather in the main square?" Nan Luo asked when he saw that the square was already filled with people. Feng Ao Kuai was going to the middle along with some soldiers around him and the officials with the family name list.

There was family register, which was still a bit crude, but it could provide basic information about which family had males in their family members.

"Not everyone can enter. These are the names of the families who lived at the north area." The official quickly handed a bamboo scroll to Nan Luo.

Taking the scroll, Nan Luo read the content. When he reached the Jun Family, he arched his eyebrows.

"There are two people with the surname of Jun?"

The official wiped his sweat. "It's like this, Commander Nan, there was a dispute between the two families a few years ago and the second son insisted on having his family separated from his brother. Because of that, there are two Jun Family here. The Old Master Jun is with his first son's family and listed together since he's already an elderly."

Nan Luo looked at the name list and then at the member list. He blinked his eyes.

He thought that the Jun Family was a big family considering that his grandfather told him that they used to be a big family. But the name of the people here was incredibly pitiful that he wondered whether there was something wrong.

"I thought Jun Family is a big family?"

"They have some branches in the past, but many of them are met with some problems. Some of them died outside while the rest died in this city. If you would like to, I can procure the documents that recorded the incident."

The official really didn't know why Nan Luo was asking so much about Jun Family. But since Nan Luo was asking, he would naturally answer all of them.

"Sure, hand it to my adjutant later." Nan Luo pointed at Nan Hua.

The official looked at Nan Hua and cupped his fist.

Nan Hua responded by cupping her first. She could guess that Nan Luo was relying on the fact that she had better comprehension and could read faster than him. Even when they were young and studying together, Nan Luo would often find some sort of excuses to finish earlier.

He didn't like to study that much.

They soon arrived at the north area and Nan Luo read the family name on the list. The representative stepped forward respectfully and accepted the order for their family to participate in the war.

Some of them were prepared.

While some others were worried.

Nan Luo watched these people and felt a bit at loss. As someone who was part of the military family, he always felt that he would definitely step on the battlefield and participate in the war.

That was also why he always honed his martial arts to the fullest.

But watching these people with their mixed reaction, he came to realize that this might be how it was in the normal family. They wouldn't think about the impeding war as they lived their lives.

They had other problems as their priority.

For them, war was just something that happened far away from their city.

Even if the war occurred nearby, all they could do was to stay at home and waited until everything was over.

"First Jun Family," the official read.

Nan Luo's eyes lit up as he scanned the crowd. Soon, he saw a skinny youth stepped forward and cupped his fist.

"Jun Shi Lian will represent the first Jun Family," the skinny youth replied in his tender voice.
