Chapter 1752 Events in the Capital City Amidst everything, he decided to strike first and made his own power and name for himself. This way, he would be able to control his fate to a certain degree. 𝕗𝚛𝚎𝚎𝐰𝗲𝗯𝗻𝚘𝚟𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝕞 People called him double faces, but Long Qian Xing didn't care. As long as he could protect himself and his family, why should he care about what other people were thinking about him? Now, no one would dare to offend him outright. If they still valued their lives, they would never dare to step forward and made trouble in front of him. "I have a different path," Nan Hua said quietly. When she came to this world, she was at loss because she was not used to have her own ideas. Because no matter what thought she had, she never had the freedom to do it and had to follow the arrangement that was made for her. Completely like a tool without any feelings and thoughts of her own. Even if she actually had her own thoughts, it was constantly suppressed to the point that it was slowly diminishing. But later on, she decided to gather her own power. Getting stronger and have strong people around her. This way, she would never have to be subjected to the same treatment as she used to be in the past. Being used by others all the time without knowing the reason. Having her life controlled by others and could only follow their order to live just like a tool. She wanted a live on her own. And it was through this freedom that she built her own power and everything in this world. At the same time, she learned many things that she could never learn before. Learn how to care for others, learn how to appreciate other people's feelings for her, and also… learn how to fall in love and be loved back. "But I'm glad that we're here," Nan Hua said quietly. If she had never come here, she might not be able to escape that organization's control until her death. Because there were many things that she couldn't do before but could do here that she appreciated her life here more and more as time passed. "I'm glad you're here too, Hua'er." Long Qian Xing looked at the young woman beside him, feeling really full and comforted. Nan Hua looked back at Long Qian Xing and smiled. Seeing Nan Hua's smile, Long Qian Xing was fascinated. No matter how many times he saw it, he could never get used to it. Nan Hua is very beautiful, so beautiful that he didn't mind staring in her direction all day long. Pfft! Hearing the laugh, Long Qian Xing returned to his sense and saw Nan Hua used her palm to block her mouth. There was laughter in her eyes and it was clear that she was laughing at his reaction. Long Qian Xing coughed embarrassedly but still smiled at Nan Hua. Nan Hua quickly calmed down again and continued to control her horse. Seeing her calming down very quickly, Long Qian Xing was a bit disappointed. But he knew that there was still a long time ahead where he could spend the rest of his life with Nan Hua. He should be able to see more of her expression later. There was no hurry. With that, Long Qian Xing also followed Nan Hua with a bright smile on his face. … Feng Ao Kuai was finally assigned to go to Zhang Xu Kingdom. This was something that he had been waiting for, so Feng Ao Kuai was relatively satisfied with it. As for what would happen later, that would be something to worry about in the future. "I hope you can do as you promised, Fifth rank Official Feng." Emperor Yang Zhou looked at Feng Ao Kuai deeply. "Yes, Your Majesty. This subject will do his best." Feng Ao Kuai cupped his fist respectfully. "Go." Emperor Yang Zhou had selected a few people to go and command the area in Zhang Xu Kingdom before. These new people would be helping them because the large of Zhang Xu Kingdom was not very easy to be governed. Feng Ao Kuai straightened his back and made his way out. Knock! "Your Majesty, Prince Yu is here to see you." Prince Yu, Shangguan Yu. Emperor Yang Zhou has been keeping an eye to Shangguan Yu's movements. This young man who had been hiding for so many years and hide his own capabilities looked very suspicious. He wouldn't want to keep such a troublesome man if it was not because of the current situation in Fei Yang Kingdom. They needed almost every capable people present because of his purge back then and also the expansion of Fei Yang Kingdom's territory. Besides, it would be hard to keep these ambitious officials in check. There were too many of them. It would be better to just arrange them in a way that would block each other's advance. "Let him in." "Long live Your Majesty." Shangguan Yu greeted and bowed. Because of his legs inconvenience, he didn't have to kowtow to Emperor Yang Zhou, but he still had to bow his head. "Rise." Emperor Yang Zhou looked at the young man in front of him and asked, "What brings you here today?" "Your Majesty, this subject would like to request for departure to inspect the territory on the east in autumn." Autumn? This was only spring, so autumn was still far away. Emperor Yang Zhou arched his eyebrows and looked at Shangguan Yu's legs. Perhaps, he came here early because it needed a lot of preparation? But east… Going further to the east would be the border between Fei Yang Kingdom and Shi Long Kingdom. The situation there was quite chaotic because even if there were skirmish from time to time, the advantage in the battles could easily change hands. "The east might be a bit dangerous. Are you sure about this, Shangguan Yu?" Shangguan Yu nodded solemnly. "Yes, Your Majesty."
