Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower-Chapter 2507 - 2509: Nan Hou Xiang

Long Qian Xing glanced at the examination rooms outside. "They should be almost done, do you want to take a look?"

"No." Nan Hua shook her head.

Song Chuan laughed and then offered, "How about if you paid a visit to my place instead? It has been a long time since you go there."

Go to Song Chuan’s residence?

Nan Hua had never gone there but Long Qian Xing had gone there a few times.

"How are your children?"

"They’re doing well… those boys are quite naughty." Song Chuan sighed when he thought about his children at home. At first, these boys were quite well behaved. But as time passed….

Well, Song Chuan sometimes wanted to stuff them back to their mother’s stomach and didn’t see them at all.

Long Qian Xing chuckled. "If you don’t mind, I might have some questions about becoming parents too on our way to your house."

"Oh?" Song Chuan’s eyes lit up and he looked at Nan Hua before moving his eyes away. He understood that Long Qian Xing is about to become a father and his smile become very sincere. "Congratulation, General Xing."

"Let’s not talk this here." Long Qian Xing motioned for Song Chuan to lead the way.

It would be fine for them to talk about the trade business here, but if they were to talk about other things…

It would be better for them to do it in Song Chuan’s residence.

And Long Qian Xing had many questions that he wanted to ask as a soon to be first time father.

…

<Examination Hall>

There were many people who took the Imperial Examination today.

It was crowded and people were moving at slow pace. The current Imperial Examination was still relatively simple, but the questions were by no means easy. If they only rely on books without paying attention to the current situation, they wouldn’t be able to answer accurately.

Among these people, Nan Hou Xiang was walking unhurriedly.

He should have participated in the previous examination but in the end, he backed down.

They only have one chance to achieve the best result possible ever in the Imperial Examination. After studying for a long time, Nan Hou Xiang decided to take his time and learn everything slowly but surely.

Otherwise, he could only settle in a lower position because his result was not very good.

As for life and so on…

Nan Hou Xiang was still able to survive all these years and he felt that there would not be any problem to prolong it a bit longer.

It was not pleasant, yes.

But he didn’t want to get a bad result.

’And it’s really lonely.’

Because of his life experience, Nan Hou Xiang didn’t have any friends. People were pointing fingers at him because of his father’s experience and there was nothing that Nan Hou Xiang could do about it.

He’s angry, he’s aggrieved, he’s frustrated.

But life has to continue.

Unless he wanted to take his own life… which he didn’t want to.

He still has a dream he wanted to fulfill in this life.

In the past, Nan Hou Xiang was unreconciled with his life because he knew that he could never get away from his past. But even if he wanted to run away, there was no chance for him to do so.

And now….

Nan Hou Xiang had heard about the fact that Emperor Yang Zhou moved the capital city away. Those who passed the Imperial Examination and obtained good result would be able to follow.

So he decisively took the examination this year.

Even if it was delayed and this meant that he had to travel in winter to the new capital city, Nan Hou Xiang would rather take this year’s exam rather than at other time. As long as his result was good enough he would be able to leave Cheng City.

Nan Hou Xiang wanted to leave.

In the past, he was too young to leave on his own and the elder who helped him to stay in the academy would not let him live on his own. Besides, Nan Hou Xiang didn’t really have any relatives outside of Cheng City.

No one wanted to accept him either.

Rather than forcing himself to live with people who didn’t want him, why not leave and live on his own after he came of age and had the ability to do so?

This Imperial Examination could be said to be his chance.

Once he left Cheng City, who would remember his life experience?

Even if there were some people who knew about it, they would not talk nonsense as long as he was able to do his work well and stood firmly in his position.

*noise*

Walking out of the hall, Nan Hou Xiang watched as the other people came out and was greeted by their respective families. They prepared food, blanket and even warm tea for these people.

The temperature in Cheng City had dropped slightly but it was not to the point that it would require them to use thick clothes yet. So some of these people’s actions were actually a bit excessive.

But as Nan Hou Xiang watched it, he fell silent.

Because no matter how excessive it is, it represent their family’s concern towards their children, husband, or even siblings.

But this has nothing to do with Nan Hou Xiang.

He had no family members, no one to care for him.

He could only live by himself without anyone to help and care for him. No matter how difficult it is, he had no one to talk with and could only swallow everything into his heart and endured it.

It was painful.

It was tiring.

It was suffocating.

And finally… it was lonely.

But what could he do?

Nan Hou Xiang smiled bitterly and shook his head.

He could not expect anything from his so called family members. From the very moment he was kicked out of the Nan Family, he had no family members.
