Chapter 728: Worry

Xiao Yun also understood what had happened and looked at Nan Hua with worry. At this moment, there was a sleeping wolf that was about to be awakened should there be more bad news.         

    

…     

    

"Young Commander!" Xiao Yan yelled in panic when he saw blood drew from Nan Luo's left arm.     

"I'm fine."     

Nan Luo waved his other hand as he twisted his body and thrusted forward. While the other party managed to harm his left hand, he used the chance to launch counterattack and wound the other party too. This time, his attack directly killed the commander in front of him.     

Slash! Thud!     

"Retreat!" Nan Luo yelled. "Ao Kuai! Cover us!"     

Feng Ao Kuai yelled. "Retreat three formations!"     

The soldiers began to move and blocked the attack from the enemies while they began to withdraw from the battlefield. They were outnumbered, so their best option in order to win was to make sure that they maintained their formation and defend.     

The two armies cooperated with each other as they retreated from the battlefield while the enemy's line was in chaos because of their loss of their commander.

It didn't take long for the two armies to return to the camp.     

"Luo, treat your arm." Feng Ao Kuai immediately signaled for the army doctor to tend on Nan Luo's wound.     

"I'm fine."     

"Is it deep?"     

Nan Luo was looking at his hand while the doctor began to apply medicine and bandaged it. He nodded faintly. "It nearly reaches the bone."     

"You're careless."     

"It's not my intention."     

Feng Ao Kuai snorted. They have only returned to the battlefield recently, but Nan Luo had already gotten hurt when they were merely fighting against a 2000 men commander. Though, 600 vs 2000 was not exactly a good number.     

Nan Luo was looking at his hand as he thought of something and his face changed. When he was wounded as bad as this… would Nan Hua experienced the pain too?     

He didn't want to make his twin sister worried. This wound was nothing to him, but the connection between him and his sister was something intangible that even he couldn't understand. The pain that either his sister or he experienced might be transferred to the other party.     

Wait, no, not transferred. It was simply also being experienced by the other party.     

However, that was what made Nan Luo worried. If his sister knew that he was wounded, would she rush over?     

"Ao Kuai… do you think it's possible for Hua'er to send someone?" Nan Luo asked in careful tone.     

Hearing that, Feng Ao Kuai's face darkened. He and Nan Luo had promised that they would do their best to make sure that they would make their name. But it was not even a week after they left the Capital City and Nan Hua was already worrying about them.     

How useless would they be?         

    

"She wouldn't be that rash. To be safe, let's move to settle the bandits around the Capital City." Feng Ao Kuai looked at Nan Luo and snorted. "And this time, try not to challenge commanders beyond your capabilities."     

"I know."     

Nan Luo's hand was already finished bandaged. He thought for a moment and decided to send a letter to his twin sister. It would be better for him to let her know that he was fine lest she rushed over to their location.     

There were some ruckuses around the Capital City, which might be because of Emperor Yang Zhou's upcoming marriage. They could use this chance to settle some scores with those people and earned some merits. It would still take a long time for them to have another promotion, but they could at least do their work well.     

…     

    

It was later in the day that Nan Hua received the letter sent from Nan Luo. It was already late at night, but Nan Hua hadn't slept yet. Looking at the letter written by her twin brother, Nan Hua put it away.     

Nan Luo was fine.

He was just a bit careless.     

Swish!     

A shadow landed behind Nan Hua and kneeled on the ground with one arm on top of his legs. It was a proper posture for a servant to their Master. "Master, the investigation had finished."     

"Who?"     

"It's a small group of people who are against His Majesty. The family of the woman in the palace who collaborate with Princess Hu also participated in it."     

Princess Hu was already betrothed to Shangguan Yu and their marriage would happen very soon. In fact, it was even earlier compared to Emperor Yang Zhou's marriage since their scandal had already spread far.     

The Imperial Family wanted to suppress the news, so they simply announced that Princess Hu would marry Shangguan Yu.     

During the day in Empress Selection, there was indeed one girl who collaborated with Princess Hu in order to frame Nan Hua. It was just that she would never expected that the plan would backfire and harmed Princess Hu instead.     

"It's her?" Nan Hua's eyes were calm.     

She would not usually pursue people for small matters. After all, if she tried to redress grievances for every single offense, the list would be too long. Since that girl was only used by Princess Hu, Nan Hua simply forget about her.     

But it seemed that the girl was not simply being used.     

"Yes, Miss. Shall I deal with her?" Nan Si's eyes gleamed with ruthlessness.     

Nan Si was Nan Hua's shadow and would follow Nan Hua wherever she went. His task was to deal with things that Nan Hua's identity inconvenience her to make a move personally. Even though it didn't mean Nan Hua couldn't do it, why should she take care of the mess on her own and blew her cover?     

That was where Nan Si came.     

He could be anyone around Nan Hua from a servant to a guard to a mere passerby. No one would be able to find his true identity unless they knew the truth.     

That day in the palace, he naturally saw everything.
