Old Madam Long was taken aback by Nan Hua''s question. She thought that the littless would be more worried about her attendance, but she was instead asking about this. She smiled faintly. "Zhang Xu Kingdom."


    Zhang Xu Kingdom.


    Nan Hua was not unfamiliar with this name. It was the name of the kingdom that was bordering Fei Yang Kingdom at the north. There were three different kingdoms bordering Fei Yang Kingdom, though their location was somewhat peculiar.


    At the west and south of Fei Yang Kingdom was mountain range, so the other kingdom that bordered them only located at the north, northeast, and also east. Beyond the mountain range on the west was a vast dessert while the mountain range on the south was too troublesome to conquer.


    Thus, they didn''t even think of expanding their territory to either side.


    Zhang Xu Kingdom, that was located at the north of Fei Yang Kingdom also suffered the same fate on its west border. They couldn''t expand more to the west because of the vast and dry desert that didn''t end even if they were looking at it from the top of the mountain.


    Thus, no one has been thinking of exploring to the west.


    They also didn''t have the resources to do so.


    Only some tribes were living in those areas. They rarely interacted with the kingdoms here, though.


    If they arranged treaty with Zhang Xu Kingdom, it meant that they would attack…


    Nan Hua''s brain thought hard and nodded faintly. The storyline was progressing just like what she had known. This would be the beginning of war against another kingdom. The treaty was only signed to make sure that Zhang Xu Kingdom would not attack them during this crucial period of time.


    In addition, Zhang Xu Kingdom also needed this treaty because they were attacking another kingdom that was bordering their north. They had to make sure that Fei Yang would not attack them at the south area or they would be doomed. Facing attack at both the north and south would prove to be extremely difficult.


    "I see."


    Old Madam Long chuckled when she saw Nan Hua''s serious expression. "You sound as if you know the n of the higher ups. In any case, you''ll have to participate in this banquet."


    Nan Hua was stunned as she raised her head in confusion. Why would she had to participate when she was nothing more than a little brat?


    "Every noble had toe and you, as the daughter of a noble family, will definitely be invited." Old Madam Long sighed. If only it was possible, she also didn''t want Nan Hua toe to this party. She would be alone as the males and females'' location would be separated.


    At this moment, Old Madam Long was worried for this littless''s safety!


    "I can''te because this old bone is said to be told to rest." Old Madam Long snorted in annoyance. Because of her excuse, she couldn''te and there were many letter given to her that stated she had to rest properly.


    Rest?!


    She was healthy enough to even throw utensil on their heads!


    Nan Hua looked at Old Madam Long and felt a bit apprehensive. She didn''t understand why Old Madam Long was treating her so well when she didn''t do anything. All she did was behaving well like her current identity supposed to be.


    Little did she know that it was this type of girl that Old Madam Long liked.


    Old Madam Long had lived for a long time and had seen various types of people. Those who wanted to get close to her and acted as if they were noble and virtuous were too many to count.


    On the contrary, those who truly knew their ce and behaved well were very rare. Most of them who knew their ces still harbored deep sense of ambitions and wished to be able to be phoenix from being a sparrow. Thus, Old Madam Long simply looked at them doing their performances from the sidelines.


    Added with the fact that Nan Hua was her grandson''s fiancée, she had no other choice but to pay more attention to her.


    And the more she saw her, the more satisfied Old Madam Long felt.


    It was also because of this Old Madam Long didn''t want anything bad to happen to this little girl. If only it was possible, she wanted to tuck this girl inside the residence and didn''t let her see the dark world outside and just be happy.


    "Grandmother, Hua''er will be fine," Nan Hua reassured Old Madam Long.


    She didn''t think much of these people''s tricks. They were all trying to y tricks in front of her but their tricks were mostly very bad that she could easily see it. She was not stupid enough to let her be schemed against.


    When she saw that there was something wrong, she would think for a method to get away safely all the time.


    There was no need for Old Madam Long to be so worried.


    *sigh*


    "I know you''re a kind girl, but it''s because of that I want you to be more careful. Princess Yue didn''t have good impression of Nan Family and might target you because of that." Old Madam Long sighed.


    Kind?


    Of all words that could be used to describe herself, Nan Hua would never use the word kind. Someone like her, who had killed thousands or might be millions of people, had already stained her hand with too much blood. There were too many to count as Nan Hua didn''t even remember all of her target. There was no way that she could be called kind.


    As for Princess Yue disliking her…


    Nan Hua knew that. Back at the temple, Princess Yue had deliberately tried to make things difficult for her. If this time Princess Yue wanted to make things difficult again, Nan Hua didn''t mind to y along.


    Of course, that princess should be ready to pay for the price.


    She didn''t mind acting like a low and weak girl, but she would not let them off if they tried to tarnish her reputation and put Nan Family in difficult position.


    In this world, a girl lived by their reputation and her family also needed the reputation if they didn''t want others to make things difficult for them.
