461 Ridiculous Plan (2)

But the target was Long Qian Xing.

With this move from Empress Dowager Mei, she thought that she had caused troubles for Long Qian Xing. But in truth, this would also seal her own fate. Those who were originally supporting her no longer had the courage to do so because she had basically offended the Long Family.

They would slowly shift towards Emperor Yang Zhou.

This was also the reason why Long Qian Xing chose to agree with her disposition but made things difficult for Shangguan Mi.

He would be able to gain much more from this move.

Just one stone to hit several birds.

'As expected of Long Qian Xing.'

He was not the main lead of the story without reason. Many of his enemies dubbed him as a reaper without heart because of how he did things. There were many times he used other people, yet they didn't even realize it because he didn't even need to interact with them directly.

That was also why Long Qian Xing managed to become so powerful later on in the future.

Those who went against him were all eliminated one by one even without him lifting his own hand. There were many others who would do the dirty work while he waited at the sidelines for the result from his schemes.

He's not a kind person.

Neither does she.

When her thought reached this point, Nan Hua was stunned. Why did the last sentence of her thoughts sound weird? Not wanting to keep on indulging herself in this kind of weird thoughts, Nan Hua pushed everything to the back of her mind.

"Why would she go against him?" Nan Luo was baffled.

Nan Hua looked at Nan Luo then said slowly, "Luo, did you forget the history lesson again?"

Nan Luo was speechless.

No, he didn't forget. Combing his mind, Nan Luo remembered that Empress Dowager Mei was the woman that Prime Minister Bei brought for the Emperor. Her background was that of a dancer and there were even some rumors that she was actually Prime Minister Bei's lover before given to the Emperor.

She's a commoner, so she didn't have big family to support her. In fact, no one knew who her parents were or whether she had any siblings. Even if there was any, Empress Dowager Mei had never contacted them.

And then…

Emperor Yang Zhou was born a bit more than a year after Empress Dowager Mei entered the harem. Thus, some people who tried to speculate that he was Prime Minister Bei's son ended up being defeated. The two of them didn't even meet each other again as it was impossible for Prime Minister Bei to sneak into the harem if he didn't want to die.

Besides, how does it possible to conceive a child for more than a year's time?

There was no such medicine that could do that.

"Uh…the child of a man whom she didn't love?" Nan Luo asked slowly.

Nan Hua nodded.

Nan Luo fell silent. He really didn't understand much about the concept of love even though he heard it from time to time. He knew that he loved his family members and wished that they would always be happy but love between lovers was still something foreign for him.

Thus, he really couldn't understand the reason behind Empress Dowager Mei's action.

"Are there even mother who hate their children?"

"There are a lot of fathers who hate their children." Feng Ao Kuai pointed at Nan Luo as if reminding him of his father. "Why can't women be the same?"

"Oh… right."

Nan Luo had the misconception that women would always love their children because his mother loved him and his twin sister very much. But thinking about it from another perspective, not everyone wanted children.

Be it men or women, they could hate their children if they didn't want them.

There was no gender discrepancy.

Feng Ao Kuai snorted. He turned to look at Feng Ao Si. "Brother, if neither of the Long Family or Shangguan Family do something, let's pay a visit there."

Feng Ao Si was speechless.

'Why do you have to drag me along?'

Honestly, Feng Ao Si himself was angry because Empress Dowager Mei was basically pushing an unwanted woman into Long Qian Xing. What made him angry was that neither side wanted it, but she still pushed it.

What would he do if that happen to him too?

Feng Ao Si really couldn't imagine it.

However, there was really not much that they could do because the one who made the decision was that young man. And rejecting the Imperial Edict was the same as not giving the Imperial Family any face.

They couldn't do it.

No matter how stupid Feng Ao Si was, he still understood this basic principle.

"What do you want to do, Ao Kuai?"

"Hmm, having a talk will be enough. I think I need to prepare another set of arrows too."

Feng Ao Si: "…"

Nan Hua blinked her eyes and tugged her grandfather's sleeve. They couldn't do that unless they wanted to launch a rebellion. And fighting against Long Family would also cause a lot of internal conflict.

She didn't want to blow up this matter too much.

It was not like Long Qian Xing would even get close to that woman.

However….

"If you really want to, I'll lend Hou Lin." Old Master Nan nodded. He felt that his grandsons were really reliable this time. They couldn't possibly let them freely take advantage of his granddaughter.

He didn't really mind teaching them some lessons if they didn't give any good answer in front of him tomorrow.

"That's a great idea!"

"Yes, we can also sneak in and..."

"No, that's not enough, we should also…."

Listening to their ridiculous plan, Nan Hua silently wondered whether they would end up really doing it or not. If they really did, Long Qian Xing might be in for a suffering under the hand of these three.

Nan Hua was silent and didn't stop the others from continuing their plan.
