Chapter 1750 Journey to the South

Long Qian Xing naturally didn't know what Lou was worrying about. But even if he knew, he would not care too much.

His entire mind was focused on the young woman in front of him.

The soft touch was short, but it was enough to make him full of Nan Hua in his eyes and mind.

As they stopped, he could feel the raging fire inside his heart. His eyes were looking at Nan Hua full of desire. "Hua'er."

"There's no need for so many things." Nan Hua looked at Long Qian Xing seriously and then added, "Just go with the flow and having a simple celebration is enough."

Long Qian Xing's brain was exceptionally sluggish at this time. The joy from being able to taste the sweet and soft taste was making him unable to think too much. In the next moment, he nodded dumbly as his brain started to work.

"Okay, I'll listen to you."

Nan Hua smiled faintly and then moved away. There was a faint blush on her cheek and ear.

Long Qian Xing noticed it from the side and the smile on his face turned wider. He felt that Nan Hua's appearance was very cute and adorable. The two of them looked at each other and then focused on the bonfire in front of them. It was truly an awkward yet sweet moment.

…

Bang!

After the long grueling month was over, Song Yun Xiang felt that he was about to collapse. He understood that Long Qian Xing was angry to be using such a large force just to meet him. But it was the order given to him, got it?

It was not like he wanted to do it himself.

"Strategist Song, there's a letter from the Imperial Family."

"Again?" Song Yun Xiang furrowed his eyebrows. If they asked him to attack Long Qian Xing fiercely again, then he would have to refuse. The soldiers were tired and in this cold winter, it was not very convenient for them to charge forward. While it was not impossible, but in order to maintain the heat and all, there were many things that need to be prepared. It wouldn't be easy for them to advance at all.

"Yes…" the soldier shivered.

he was just a messenger, okay? Please don't transfer your rage to him….

Song Yun Xiang nodded at his adjutant who helped him to open the letter. The disadvantages of not having a hand was presented very fully at this time. It was not like Song Yun Xiang wanted it.

But the problem was that he could only use his legs to take the letter even if he wanted it. In the end, he could only hand it over to his adjutant.

"Strategist Song, here you go." The adjutant opened the letter in front of Song Yun Xiang.

Reading the letter one word after another, the corner of Song Yun Xiang's mouth curled up. He whispered, "Finally."

The adjutant kept a poker face and dismissed the soldier.

It seemed that there wouldn't be any intense battle anytime soon.

…

Time passed quietly.

As winter passed, the generals started to move in accordance to the orders given to them to their respective locations. The one at the south was the fastest as General Feng reached his own area of deployment very quickly and assumed his role to lead the soldiers there. Maintaining the border is the most important thing to do for now.

Aside from him, Shangguan Xian and Shangguan Xiao were also doing their job well with Yu Jin helping them.

As it entered spring, the two Shangguan brothers were making their way to the Capital City while Yu Jin stayed in the area of deployment to take care of the things here.

Great General Long was already at the north and met with Long Qian Xing and Nan Hua who were going to go to the south.

Drap! Drap! Drap!

Looking at the large number of soldiers, Nan Hua silently wondered whether it would be overkill to Fan Yi Kingdom or not. But at the very least, they could be certain that the north border would be safe until Great General Wei finished dealings with the remnants of Zhang Xu Kingdom's army who were still making troubles.

Conquering an entire kingdom has never been easy. The follow up would be much more complicated because they had to assure the lives of millions of people who lived there.

"Father," Long Qian Xing greeted.

Great General Long nodded at the two of them. His eyes landed on Nan Hua, his expression a bit strange. Nan Hua's appearance might look a bit more to her mother, but there were also traces that was very similar to her grandfather when he was young. Not many people still remembered Old Master Nan's appearance when he was young, but Great General Long was one of them. After all, he had been beaten up by that annoying man during practice when he was young.

Just from looking at Nan Hua's face, he could guess that she should be Nan Hua.

No wonder that there were strange rumors about his son lately…

"The south area is chaotic and might not be so easy to deal with. At the same time, they're separate villages and had to be dealt with separately." Great General Long looked at the two youths in front of him and then added, "Take care."

Long Qian Xing smiled. "I will, Father."

"Yes, Great General Long," Nan Hua also replied, but her answer was much more polite and in line with the etiquette. Great General Long looked at the two of them for a moment before retracting his head and ordered the soldier to take over the fort that Long Qian Xing made here temporarily.
