Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower

This place still hasn’t changed and even the broken areas remained the same. It could be seen that the Jun Family had long treated this place as nonexistent.

For them, it had no meaning whether this place existed or not.

And Jun Shi Lian had no opinion about this. He had long known that First Master Jun and the others were unfeeling people.

The man who came with Jun Shi Lian this time looked at the calm man speechlessly. “Even if you’re my subordinate in the military, you don’t have to call me that way when we’re outside. I’m here under Master’s order, not as your superior.”

Yes, the person who came this time is Hou Ming.

When Jun Shi Lian came to pay a visit to Governor Nian, Hou Ming has already arrived and heard about what Jun Shi Lian wanted to do. To be honest, Hou Ming had no opinion and willing to follow Jun Shi Lian.

As long as his own task could be finished, it didn’t matter how the process was.

Besides, this was also Jun Shi Lian’s private matter and Hou Ming was only here to help the other party.

“Are you sure that you want to get into the Jun Family’s areas by yourself?” Hou Ming asked as he watched Jun Shi Lian changed his clothes to dark clothing. It was still a bit early and the sun wouldn’t go down so soon, wouldn’t his clothing looked conspicuous?

“Yes.”

“With your skills?”

Jun Shi Lian glanced at Hou Ming and said, “My skills are not bad, Adjutant.”

After that, he continued to busied himself.

Hou Ming scoffed when he heard Jun Shi Lian’s words. This was because he knew that Jun Shi Lian’s skills were indeed not that bad but couldn’t be said to be the best. There were still some of them in the army who were far better than Jun Shi Lian.

Naturally, Hou Ming was included.

He didn’t bother with Jun Shi Lian anymore and picked a seat to rest.

They had to wait until tomorrow for the play to start and during this period of time, Hou Ming only needed to stay here and prevent others from coming and disturb Jun Shi Lian.

Swish!

Jun Shi Lian was done changing and then sneaked out of the residence towards the servant’s quarter. He wanted to grab some servant’s clothing to be able to wander around freely.

Otherwise, it was still a bit difficult.

When Jun Shi Lian first came here, he was careful enough not to walk in crowded areas and after he finished with his business, he departed as quickly as possible.

But now that his target was not easily accessible, Jun Shi Lian had to be more careful.

And what other methods would be better than creating a distraction himself?

Thus, today’s farce came.

Hou Ming was waiting leisurely when he heard footsteps from outside and his eyebrows arched. He didn’t expect that Jun Shi Lian’s words to be correct.

Even as the unwanted child of the Jun Family, there would be people paying attention to his movement.

He sighed and stood up, acting as a servant.

Considering that he had served the Nan Family for a long time, his movements could be considered to be very standard.

Thump!

A young man walked in while being followed by several servants behind him. Looking at his appearance that somewhat resembled First Madam Jun, Hou Ming could guess that he should be Jun Shi Mo, Jun Shi Lian’s half brother.

Compared to Jun Shi Lian, Jun Shi Mo looked more like his mother. This made the two siblings looked nothing alike and people wouldn’t associate the two of them together.

If it was not because Jun Shi Lian looked like his father, no one would think that he came from the Jun Family.

‘The family drama is really annoying.’

Having followed the Nan Family for a long time, Hou Ming was naturally aware of the various dramas that happened when the twins were still young. It could be said that the most pitiful ones were the children who were got involved just because they were born in that family.

“Where’s Jun Shi Lian?” Jun Shi Mo asked condescendingly.

Ever since he was young, Jun Shi Mo knew that his status is far better than Jun Shi Lian. The boys would not compete like girls, but they also have their own pride. Watching Jun Shi Lian who could only cower in front of him, Jun Shi Mo naturally bullied the other party heartily.

Whenever he was not happy, he would go to find Jun Shi Lian and watched the boy knelt down in front of him.

This gave him immense pleasure.

Now that Jun Shi Lian had returned, Jun Shi Mo wanted to teach that brat a lesson. His mind was still stuck to the time when they were young and Jun Shi Lian couldn’t do anything but listen to Jun Shi Mo’s words.

But so many years have passed, how could it be the same?

Jun Shi Lian was no longer that pitiful child.

“Young Master Jun is resting,” Hou Ming replied calmly. Even if he was in front of Jun Shi Mo, he had no intention of being humble or anything like that.

This act…

He was not Jun Shi Lian’s servant or anything.

If it was not because of the order from Nan Luo, Hou Ming would not even want to stay in the Jun Family to watch the drama unfold. Isn’t it better for him to go back and enjoy his time with his family?

There were several people surnamed Hou under Nan Luo. They were from Old Master Nan and they served the Nan Family, be it from the shadow or under the light. The arrangement was up to them.

And they were given a certain degree of freedom when they were not working.

Some of them have their own family.

Hou Ming was naturally one of them.

After all, he was Nan Luo’s adjutant and many people in the army knew him.
