Chapter 519: 520 Leaving Yi Shang Temple

Chapter 520 Leaving Yi Shang Temple

Shangguan Die noticed Nan Hua's gaze, but she laughed faintly. "It's not containing any secret but only telling that the political upheaval is basically over. Besides, it's close to Official Nan's birthday. There's no way he'll celebrate it without his legal wife and two daughters, right?"

Oh right…

Nan Hua would have forgotten if not for Shangguan Die's reminder. Nan Shu Cheng's birthday was around the middle to the end of Spring. It should be next week or two weeks from now.

Honestly, Nan Hua didn't care even if it was tomorrow since she didn't really want to celebrate it.

"And I'm sure that there will be some juicy drama during the event." Shangguan Die giggled. "Those women in the harem will never relax and will try to seize any chance they have. I'm afraid that it'll be difficult for you to survive in such harsh environment."

"I'll be fine."

Nan Hua knew that letting those concubines fought with Madam Qu would be for the best. What she was more worrying would be the fact that Princess Hu would try to invite her to a party during the worst possible moment. If that happened, she would have to resort to some extreme means in order to make sure that she would not fall for her trap.

Tu Family…

The grudge between her and that family would seem to continue until at least one of them fell. Nan Hua was determined to make sure that the one who would stand at the very last moment would be her.

"Alright, I trust your words." Shangguan Die stood up and stretched her body. She smirked. "I'll leave my sister in your care. If she ever dares to do anything presumptuous, you're free to do anything to her."

"I don't need your permission."

Though, Nan Hua doubted that she would be going to Long Family Residence anytime soon. Considering that her father was not the type to give her any chance to go there and made them confined in the house.

The two of them talked a bit more about some matters before they went their way. If other people saw how these two interacted, they would silently wonder whether the two of them were not real sister.

..

Nan Hua stayed in the temple for another day before there was a letter from Nan Shu Cheng to Madam Qu, ordering her to return.

Madam Qu was exhilarated. She looked as if she was given amnesty after committing a huge crime as she ordered the servants to pack up as fast as possible. There was no way she would let this chance passed by.

"Why are you so slow? Move faster!"

"Yes, Madam."

The servants were all moving rapidly, but Nan Hua noticed that it was already afternoon. Even if they tried to go at the fastest speed, they would have to stop by the nearby village near the Capital City for the night.

It would be impossible for them to arrive in the Capital City today.

But Nan Hua had no intention of reminding Madam Qu. She simply went to the carriage and waited there, watching the commotion in front of her as both Madam Qu and Nan Xin were busy ordering the servants to hurry.

"Have you packed everything, Xiao Yun?"

"Yes, Miss. Everything is packed." Xiao Yun nodded. She had unpacked everything when Nan Hua came and silently caused some traces of wear on some items. After all, Nan Hua didn't actually need everything, but she still prepared so many things that might be necessary for what ordinary young miss would need.

"Good."

Nan Hua closed her eyes and leaned back, resting her eyes. Even if she was not really sleeping, both Xiao Yun and Mu Yan tried to lower their breathing and conceal their presence so that they would not disturb Nan Hua. It would not help that much, but they hoped to do the best for their Miss.

Time passed swiftly.

As Nan Hua expected, they were not even close to the Capital City when the sky darkened. The Head Guard had no other choice but to report the situation to Madam Qu in hope that they could take some rest.

"Madam, we need to take a detour since it'll be too late if we don't take the rest in the nearby village." The Head Guard was trying to convince Madam Qu to follow his advice. It was late and if they forced on, they would have to travel at night.

The night was dangerous outside.

He was not absolutely sure that he would be able to protect Madam Qu perfectly should they force their way through the night. Yet, he was helpless if Madam Qu still decided that they should carry on.

"What do you mean that we should stop? Can't we just continue?" Madam Qu was unwilling to stay outside for the night. She wanted to go back so badly because she was sure that the harem would have changed by the time she came back.

She did so many things in order to make sure that she would be the only madam in Nan Family.

How could she stay out when she could return?

"Madam, it's dangerous at night. The attack from before might repeat itself if we force our way to travel at night and this time, there's no guarantee that we'll be save," the Head Guard had no other choice but to say the truth. Even if he were to lose his head, at least he could do that without having to lose his honor too.

He didn't want his men to die either.

Madam Qu furrowed her eyebrows. The event when they first came to the Temple was still fresh in her mind. She was so terrified by the attack that she nearly couldn't move. If that were to repeat, how could she show her face in Nan Family Residence?

Her state would be so wretched.

"Fine, we'll stop in the nearby village," Madam Qu finally relented.

"This servant understood, Madam."

Watching the Head Guard, Madam Qu's eyes were filled with resentment. When they got back, she had to settle this annoying head guard.
