Chapter 491 His Involvement

The next day, Xiao Yun yawned because she felt sleepy. It was her turn to guard Nan Hua in the morning, but she couldn\'t sleep well during the early half because of the noise from Madam Qu\'s Quarter.

She even wondered how many porcelains were left after being smashed every single day.

Those pottery makers would surely be sad when they knew that their hard work were being disregarded and only used to vent other people\'s anger.

Xiao Yun heard some noise from inside and called out, "Miss, are you awake?"

"Come in, Xiao Yun."

Carrying a basket, Xiao Yun walked into the room. If Nan Hua wanted to, it was very easy for her to wake up without uttering any voice. She only purposely made noise so that Xiao Yun could do her duty.

"Miss, what\'s your plan for today?"

Nan Hua washed her hand and face calmly. "I remember there\'s a small pond nearby. Let\'s take a walk."

"Yes, Miss."

After some preparation, Nan Hua walked out of the quarter and headed to the nearby small pond. It was the pond that Nan Shu Cheng made many years ago because Madam Nan asked him to.

At that time, Nan Hua hadn\'t been born yet. She only knew about it because her mother told her when she was a kid.

\'There are more memories now.\'

Nan Hua looked at the surface of the lake while thinking. She was sure that her mother brought her here many times, but she could only remember one occasion when her mother reminisced and told her that she was happy that her husband listened to her request.

When she passed by some places that had some past memories, Nan Hua managed to remember some bit and pieces.

But it was very little.

The amount of memory that she recovered didn\'t even reach a day\'s time.

"Miss, would you like to stay here for lunch?" Xiao Yun asked after Nan Hua had stayed for more than two incense stick of times.

Nan Hua blinked her eyes and shook her head. "Let\'s return."

"Yes, Miss."

As Nan Hua turned, she noticed that there were several people who were walking in the other side of the area. The small pond was located quite remote and there was rarely anyone who passed by this place.

However, there was a group of people now.

"Miss." Xiao Yun furrowed her eyebrows.

Nan Hua raised her hand as she walked to the front, putting a tree between their location. She looked in their direction, feeling that the mark on their robes were quite familiar.

\'Du Family.\'

\'Why are they here?\'

Nan Family didn\'t have any relationship with Du Family. Or at least, they were supposed to be not to have any relationship. Du Family was part of the opposing party in the politic and had many people working in the Ministry of Justice department. They were not that influential, but had made some contributions to the nation.

Nan Hua\'s eyes flickered. It seemed that Nan Shu Cheng was actually involved in the politics upheaval.

Because of the movement from the second prince\'s force that somehow turned to be favoring Emperor Yang Zhou, the other factions had started to feel the pressure. Those on Prime Minister Bei\'s side had been on the verge of switching sides from time to time but many still held on.

Du Family head, who was also an official at 7 pin, was one of the few people who were on neither sides. He was not exactly neutral because he was going against the Emperor yet not quite on Prime Minister Bei\'s side.

It was a complicated position.

Nan Family was never mentioned during this shift.

\'Did Nan Family get involved because Mu Family is moving towards Emperor Yang Zhou\'s side?\'

Nan Hua did cause some changes to this matter because Prince Yang Lu and Mu Fei Xin were both still alive. The two of them had already started to make their stances clear that they were favoring Emperor Yang Zhou.

In the original story, Mu Family would not do that.

They stayed mostly neutral after exterminating those who were originally on Prince Yang Lu\'s faction. But now that they were all still alive and chose to support Emperor Yang Zhou, the shift in the politic was even larger.

It might had changed some matters.

Nan Hua looked in the direction of the officials once more before they disappeared into the small hut. There were barely any other people in this area, probably because of Nan Shu Cheng\'s order so that he could meet with some people secretly.

Whether this was caused by Nan Hua\'s involvement or whether Nan Shu Cheng had already been involved, Nan Hua would have to be careful.

If Nan Family fell too early, it would destroy the future events.

"Xiao Yun, let\'s go back. I want to rest early."

Xiao Yun nodded. "Yes, Miss."

When Nan Hua was about to leave the place, she flung her sleeve and a bamboo stick was stuck on the nearby tree. She then walked away as if there was nothing that happened there.

Swish!

Nan Si, who was following Nan Hua on daily basis to protect her, grabbed the bamboo stick before merged into the darkness once more. In terms of erasing his presence and detecting other people\'s presence, Nan Si was second only to Nan Hua.

Thus, he was the one given the task to deliver messages from Nan Hua and protect her.

That \'protect\' was more like in order to make sure Nan Hua didn\'t have to make a move on her own and leaked out the fact that she could do martial arts.

"I\'ll be resting now."

"Yes."

Nan Hua walked into her room and looked outside. No matter what Nan Shu Cheng was planning, he better not tried to destroy Nan Family by recklessly getting himself involved. She still had some use of the Nan Family here.

…

Time passed swiftly.

A few days had passed and Nan Hua stick on the same routine of learning how to embroider with Xiao Yun helping her to pick colors. It was as if she didn\'t have anything else that she could do.
