"How should I know?" Concubine Qu was frustrated by this annoying young girl.

At this moment, a servant walked towards Concubine Qu and whispered something. The light within her eyes glimmered for a moment. She looked at the servant. "How sure are you about this news?"

"At least 70% but there\'s no detailed information," the servant replied.

Concubine Qu nodded. While it was hard to believe that such an accident could leave no mark, she felt that high ranked martial artist could do that. it meant that there might be someone who was helping Nan Hua in secret…

Why did it sound a bit impossible?

Old Master Nan wouldn\'t dote his granddaughter to the extreme and gave such high ranked martial artist to follow them all the time, right? Besides, there were also the shadow guard of the Imperial Family who was guarding Princess Yue.

There was no way that they wouldn\'t notice if it was outsider who made their move.

"Mother, it might be Nan Hua! She must have ordered the girls to do something against me!" Nan Xin gritted her teeth. Upon recalling the cold and indifferent gaze that Nan Hua sent to her, she didn\'t think it was impossible.

Concubine Qu snorted. "There\'s no way that girl could do that. She didn\'t even come out and the girls who were with you today have only met with her once. How would they help her when they hadn\'t met before?"

"But…"

"But if you want to make a move against her, it\'s not impossible." The corner of Concubine Qu\'s lips curled up. Princess Yue was present and Shangguan Die was also here. Not to mention, there was General Chi who had lukewarm relationship with Old General Nan.

They certainly wouldn\'t help Nan Hua and might even help her out.

Since the Old Master of Nan Family and her husband was not here, Concubine Qu knew that this would be a good chance for her to make her move. "Coincidentally, I received an interesting news regarding the twins. Tomorrow, you\'re going to Southern Courtyard."

"Mother?" Nan Xin asked curiously.

At the back, Nan Hou Xiang watched Nan Xin listened to his mother and snorted. He knew very well that the reason why Concubine Qu didn\'t allow him to be the one to come was because she didn\'t want to leave any evidence behind.

He crossed his hands. Since such an easy pawn could be found here, why should they bother to dirty their own hands?

…

Southern Courtyard

Nan Hua didn\'t really do anything much after the small incident. The day passed quietly and the next day, she went with Nan Luo to hunt as usual.

"Young Master, please don\'t go too far today." Hou Liang had long known about the twins\' adventure to the forest in order to hunt. But because yesterday there was such a scene, he would not feel save unless he told them to be more careful.

"Yes."

Nan Luo knew that it would be dangerous but he smiled lightly. If those people really wanted to take advantage of him, he would give them a chance. Don\'t blame him if they didn\'t succeed, though.

Hou Liang\'s heart dropped when he saw that smile on Nan Luo\'s face. Other people would definitely be fooled by his appearance that made him look as if he was a cute and adorable kid. But he would never be fooled.

This young master was a very two faced and black bellied person.

Since Nan Luo showed that smile, it meant that the young master must have known what those from the Nan Family planned. However, since he didn\'t let it hinder him, did the young master had some plan to take care of those people?

Hou Liang didn\'t know but he also didn\'t expose this young master. In front of Nan Hua, Nan Luo would often only show his cute and adorable sight.

*Sigh*

"Don\'t take too long."

Nan Hua watched Nan Luo as the two of them headed to the forest once more. By the time they jumped down the wall, she tugged his sleeve. "We don\'t have to run too far today if you\'re worried."

"There\'s no need to worry, Hua\'er. We can just have fun as long as you want to. Why should we think too much about those people? If they want to scheme, they can do it and I\'ll take care of it afterwards~."

Nan Luo sounded very relaxed and Nan Hua didn\'t know what he was planning. In any case, she followed her twin brother and hunted as usual.

They were not planning on hunting much and only one.

But they had only managed to hunt it when Nan Hua sensed faint burning smell from a distance. Her eyebrows furrowed. They chose today to make their moves.

"Luo, there\'s something burning."

"In that case, let\'s return."

Nan Hua nodded.

The two of them abandoned the rabbit they just caught and dashed back to the wall at the fastest speed they had. In just a few breaths time, they had reached the wall and jumped to the other side.

In a few more moments, they crossed the walls and reached the other side where Nan Hua then stopped.

"Come on." Nan Luo grabbed Nan Hua\'s hand and acted as if he was dragging his little twin sister to return. He actually wanted to look as if he was tired but he couldn\'t make himself sweat over nothing, right? To make him sweat, he would need to do rigorous training and this little something was clearly not enough.

Nan Hua was also in good condition as she followed her twin brother. On their way, Xiao Yun came over and handed a handkerchief to Nan Hua while acting worried.

"Miss, are you alright?"

"Yes." Nan Hua kept the handkerchief and then used to wipe her forehead and also her neck in a swift movement. That way, it would look as if she was sweating.

Watching his little sister, Nan Luo contemplated whether he should have asked his servant to do the same or not. But before he could act on it, they had arrived by the location of the fire.

It was the small storage building that was located not far from their residential area. There were only a few servants around and each of them were looking at each other in wariness. It was clear that they were trying to make sure that they would not get the fire as they tried their hardest to put out the fire.

Nan Luo took a deep breath then spoke out, "What happened here?"

"Young Master!"

The servants were surprised. The fire had only started a few moments ago and Nan Luo had already returned? In fact, the fire was not that big yet and the commotion had only started.

"Young Master, such a big commotion and you have only appeared now?" a servant quickly said. However, the expression on her face was a bit strange. The script didn\'t seem to be going well.

Nan Hua was watching her twin brother as Nan Luo arched his eyebrows. "I\'m only at the back, walking around with Hua\'er. How far can I be that you say I take such a long time to arrive?"

The servant: "…"

Not even 5 breaths of time had passed and Nan Luo had already returned. How come their calculation be so wrong?

Seeing their expression, it was not hard to guess that they were tasked to create trouble here. Nan Hu and Nan Luo both practiced martial arts, so they could travel at higher speed than normal children. No, even most adults might not be able to run as fast as these two.

"What happened here?" a maidservant came.

Nan Luo looked at the maidservant who came as the expression on his face grew sinister. There was no longer any look that signified he was a 9 years old brat anymore. "There\'s a fire here. It seems that you receive news so fast, Aunt Mo."

Aunt Mo, who was one of the few older maidservants around Concubine Qu was stunned. She expected that she was already fast enough but she didn\'t expect that the young master and young miss would be faster.

Shouldn\'t they be in the forest and busy hunting?

How come they had returned at this period of time?

Aunt Mo calmed herself down and looked at Nan Luo. "You can\'t even control your servants and allowed them to cause such a scene?"

"My servants?" Nan Luo tilted his head then turned to look at the servants around them. After that, he passed a look at Nan Hua. "Hua\'er, are they the servants we brought along with us?"

"No, I only bring Xiao Yun and Bai Yin with me." Nan Hua shook her head. Her already indifferent eyes turned a shade colder. "I\'m more impressed with the maidservants that Concubine Qu brought along with her.. They can even cause fire in other people\'s residence."
