736 Emperor Yang Zhou’s Marriage
Song Chuan was speechless when he heard Long Qian Xing's question. That incident had only occurred not long ago and he already expected him to have some kind of detailed result about this matter?
He was not so omnipotent, alright?
"Those who died are all members of Skull Liu Organization. Not a single one of them are still alive." Song Chuan looked at the report and felt that this was more of a targeted attack rather than random. All of the people who died were part of that organization.
Long Qian Xing tapped the armchair while looking at the pile of documents in front of him. He really didn't want to stay here and reviewed them all.
"Crossfire between organization?"
"There's a mark in each location written 'Dark Moon.' It can be estimated that they're the one who did it. However, how they manage to do it without alarming anyone is something that still unanswerable."
When Song Chuan first received the report, he was already speechless. He was not supposed to be investigating this matter, but since Long Qian Xing asked, he had no other choice but to take this matter into his own hand.
However, he came to realization that the culprit had no intention of hiding themselves when they killed all of those people. They actually had the courage to leave their name behind as if marking those who dared to cross them.
Long Qian Xing faintly recall that Master Jiu from back then had said that he would pay a visit to those organizations.
The corner of his lips curled up to form a smirk.
"What a vengeful assassin."
"Master?" Song Chuan was stunned.
"It's nothing." Long Qian Xing stretched his hand. "Find some bad people to take the blame for this matter to appease the people. It's close to His Majesty's marriage, we wouldn't want any bad news circulating."
"Yes, Master."
In fact, Song Chuan felt that it could be done quickly. Emperor Yang Zhou's marriage would only be hold more than a week later. By that time, this news would have passed. After all, attacks at small villages were not that uncommon.
The uncommon one was that it was so close to the Capital City.
After assigning some tasks for Song Chuan, Long Qian Xing resumed his work. He really wished that he could return to the frontline as soon as possible. Working on paperwork has always been very tiring.
He didn't like it that much either.
It was just, he couldn't escape from this work of his because of his duty and also his goal. There were many things that he had to do.
…
The days passed quietly.
With Nan Shu Cheng busy to prepare for Emperor Yang Zhou's marriage, no one dared to do anything in the residence.
Nan Hua only heard news of Nan Xin threw tantrum after a doctor seen her. It seemed that her condition was so bad that the doctor had no confidence to fully erase her scar after the wounds were healed.
"Concubine Mei come to Master Nan and begged him, but he didn't call for more skilled doctors." Xiao Yun was naturally informed of the recent news. It was amazing considering that she was also so busy with the work around Nan Hua, but she still has the time to care about other gossips.
Nan Hua was not surprised.
The more skilled doctors would all be Imperial Doctors. To be able to call them required the Imperial Family's permission as they would only attend to Imperial Family members. There was no way an ordinary person, worse a concubine daughter, to be treated by them.
In the first place, a concubine would never be able to enter the family genealogy. It was only their children if they were acknowledged would be able to enter the family genealogy.
And some daughters were more often than not, not included. If the daughters ended up as embarrassment, why would he even bother included her name inside? In fact, he would rather not have her inside the genealogy.
"Miss, today is His Majesty's marriage. The bride will start to move soon."
Nan Hua nodded. She was inside her room, doing her embroidery. The Empress Selection was over and the person they picked was Xiao Qiang, so she would be the Empress. Some people might be dissatisfied, but the decision was already final.
"Do you plan to take a look, Miss?" Xiao Yun asked.
Take a look?
Nan Hua paused and put down her embroidery. The pouch was almost done anyway and she only needed to fix some of her earlier embroidery that caused it to be a bit crooked. There were some pieces of news that said about some organizations movement not long ago.
She had promised to pay them a visit.
It was just not suitable for the past few days since their location was too far for her to pay a visit personally. After all, Nan Hua couldn't control when any of her half siblings or other concubine mothers would pay a visit.
Having Ku replaced her might not be fully safe.
"It seems that I'll make another trip." Nan Hua stood up. She glanced in the direction where those shadow guards were watching but didn't seem to care about them at all. With her skill, those people would never be able to catch her if she didn't give them the chance.
"Ku."
Swish!
Ku appeared before Nan Hua. She was always staying nearby, acting as one of the lowly maidservants on the day around this area. When Nan Hua called, she would naturally rush over.
"Stay here and replace me."
"Yes, Miss."
In the next moment, Nan Hua had disappeared from her place.
Xiao Yun blinked her eyes. She then turned to look at Mu Yan by her side. "Did I say something wrong?"
"Miss had some good impression of Miss Xiao." Mu Yan didn't speak more of that, but Xiao Yun knew. Since Xiao Qiang had helped Nan Hua covertly, it was time for Nan Hua to repay the favor.
