Chapter 777 Emperor Yang Zhou’s Inauguration (1)
Time passed swiftly.
Season changed from summer to autumn and leaves started to fall, changing the color of the street.
Over this period of time, Nan Hua stayed mostly in her residence, doing some missions as warm up and eliminating Nan Family enemies. Those who no longer had any place in the court and then killed through 'accident' grew in number.
But no matter how much those law enforcements investigated, they couldn't find the cause.
Thus, the number of unresolved cases increased.
The Nan Family had some internal problems but none of them leaked out, so no one knew the exact details. It was not as big as when Nan Luo rushed out while being covered in blood and blocked their grandfather's procession.
Everything seemed peaceful.
But those who were smart knew that this was only calm before the storm.
No one dared to say anything strange and do anything weird. Everyone was being careful in fear that they would be dragged into something strange.
Nan Hua sat in Ning Shu Pavilion. In front of her was a zither and her fingers flew across the string, playing beautiful melody. Beside her was her grandfather, who was listening intently.
It seemed harmonious and peaceful.
"Today is the day," Nan Hua said after she had finished playing the song. She woke up early today and dressed up as a male then play one song for her grandfather before he left.
Old Master Nan nodded. It has been three months since he was wounded. There was no way he could give excuse that he was wounded to steer away from this matter anymore. Anyway, he did want to participate since it was quite boring.
"Aside from those few families related to Nan Family and Tu Family, the others have been settled." Old Master Nan looked at his granddaughter meaningfully. To be able to do so much in a mere two months proved that all of their preparation beforehand was very good and that Nan Hua's skill was superb.
If not for these two things, there was no way things would have progressed so fast.
"Since His Majesty wants to make a move by himself, this subject naturally had to let him take the chance." Nan Hua looked at Old Master Nan. "Grandfather had to be careful outside."
"Don't worry." Old Master Nan let out a faint laugh. "There will be no one who would dare to cross me."
Nan Hua looked at her grandfather and replied softly, "Mhm."
Old Master Nan really wanted to talk more with Nan Hua, but he knew very well that he had to leave. As the Grand Duke of Fei Yang Kingdom, it was his duty to watch as Emperor Yang Zhou completed his inauguration ceremony.
Once the ceremony was completed, it meant that the power would fully fall in his hands.
No one would be able to go against him in the entire Fei Yang Kingdom anymore.
"Wear your mask now."
Nan Hua took the silver mask and donned it on. With this, no one would be able to recognize her as Nan Hua, the young miss of Nan Family who had been staying low for this time period.
Old Master Nan looked at his granddaughter who had perfectly changed herself. The moment she wore the mask, the aura around her changed. It was no longer the peaceful, calm, and quiet girl. But rather, the aura of a sharp and dangerous assassin or soldier.
The contrast was very big.
