Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower

Nan Hua could sense that Long Qian Xing's mood fluctuated slightly when he told about this story. For people who had born in different era and faced different way of thinking, the way of conduct in this era was indeed hard to accept.

There were so many limitations and pressure from outside for them to live in the same way as them.

"It's impossible to change the entire tradition that had been deeply embedded into the bones so easily. Some influence can be made but it would depend on how things would develop in the future." Nan Hua stretched her hand and grabbed Long Qian Xing's hand.

Long Qian Xing looked at Nan Hua and smiled faintly.

The conversation between smart people are always so simple, boring, and straightforward.

Even when he said nothing, Nan Hua could still guess what was inside his mind and what he was actually thinking. This made him appreciate this little girl very much. It was as if she knew him so well that he didn't have to tell her anything.

If Nan Hua were to hear what Long Qian Xing was thinking, she would tell him that it was because she practically followed him through his story for several years in a different 'timeline.'

"Yes." Long Qian Xing raised Nan Hua's hand that was holding his and kissed the back of her hand. "When there's a chance, I'll try to make some changes bit by bit."

He was already in the position of power where his every move could affect a lot of people. It was also because of this that Long Qian Xing knew that if he truly wanted to, he could actually try.

But even if he did try, it would be impossible for him to do anything drastic.

He could only try to improve the livelihood of people in this era through the ways that was available for him.

He didn't need to tell Nan Hua and she should know what he wanted.

But when he was with Nan Hua, he didn't mind speaking more about what was inside his mind. 

"Mhm." Nan Hua nodded.

Nan Hua herself also had no intention of destroying the course of history and introduced so many things beyond the scale of this era. But to change some little things, it should be plausible.

Besides, the knowledge inside her mind was mostly things related to killing people. It was definitely not possible for her to actually toss them out so blatantly, so Nan Hua didn't exactly have many ways where she could actually improve people's livelihood.

The first thing that she could do was to help ending the war faster through the method that was available and could be accepted in this era. 

For the rest of the things, she would just follow the course of events.

"Let's take a seat." Long Qian Xing pointed to the pavilion at the front. 

Nan Hua looked at the flowers grown around the pavilion and blinked her eyes. For some reason, she felt that this kind of pavilion was not suitable for women who were already advance in age.

It looked a bit too romantic.

But she said nothing and followed Long Qian Xing. Perhaps, the years where this palace was abandoned, there were many changes that occurred and these flowers were also grown by the gardener who took care of this palace.

After all, the one who might come here in the future was the Imperial Concubines.

Long Qian Xing sat down beside Nan Hua and watched as Long Ai Ning came and placed the food before he picked up his chopsticks. "Eat more. The food during the war is more unpalatable."

Nan Hua chuckle lightly when she heard what Long Qian Xing said. They had lived at the frontline for so many years. How could she be unclear about the food that was served for the soldiers?

The taste was indeed not very good, but it was nutritious and could fill their stomach quickly.

After all, they all still had to fight more rounds of bitter battle afterwards.

Their nutrition had to keep up.

"There are already a lot of improvement in terms of meal for the soldiers." Nan Hua glanced at Long Qian Xing. "The taste might not be very good, but the variety is enough to fill our needs."

Long Qian Xing smiled. The first thing he did when he came to this world was to propose to his father to increase the food deployed to the soldiers. The reason he put forward was that when they go to the frontline, they needed various nutrition and not only those tasteless porridge.

If they hadn't recovered enough through their meal, how could they have the strength to fight against the enemies?

Thus, some additional ingredients were also stocked up to the frontline for the soldiers' meal.

"It would be better if the food production could increase." Long Qian Xing sighed silently. He didn't know much about farming and so on. All he knew was some of the ordinary fertilizer that could be used.

As for others…?

Sorry, he truly didn't know.

His major didn't include farming and Long Qian Xing was helpless about this matter. He could only show some of the drawings that still needed a lot of revision to Prime Minister Lan and let him think of the other things himself.

The food production did increase, but Long Qian Xing barely helped any.

He had no knowledge in this area.

Nan Hua chose not to say anything in this matter. Asking her about how to farm… that would be the same as asking her how many hairs she had on her head. She didn't know the answer for the matters like this.

In their previous world, the technology was simply already very advanced and everything could be done automatically. 

If not because Nan Hua was taught to survive in the wilderness as part of her assassins' training, she might not be able to recognize so many plants.
