Henan Zhong 33 SMALL DISTANCE

She stayed and before dawn instructed Wei Lan to knock the mansion door in the morning and tell the old gardener that miss Henan Zhong had sent you here to clean the mansion, Wei Lan nodded in command of this veiled man.

Henan came back and went to sleep in her lodge…

It's been a year, Henan woke up in the midnight due to nightmare in which Wan Hu was surrounded by hundreds of Fang Men, he was riddled with wounds and was recklessly fighting his circumstances, suddenly a sword pierced through his heart from behind, he before his fall lunged out, 'Henan' and with this shout of her name, she woke up sweating profusely.

She came out from her lodge, a temporary walk and she could see grand King and Queen Lodge. There was an unusual disturbance, at this hour of the night, she checked that no one was close at guard then moved ahead.

She had seen War Messenger horseman but why he was going to King's lodge in the midnight with Palace guards, she perfectly hides behind a pillar but she could move ahead because in corridor guards were guarding King's lodge.

Wan Hu send an urgent request to King father to send one to two hundred trained martial soldiers because Fang Men were preparing for final assault before the ForteBi could completely hurdle their way.

It was the third year of construction and forteBi was ready to appear on the map and next two years it would finally be invincible for Fang Groups.

This was a more crucial and sensitive period for forteBi.

King came out and ordered one of the guards to bring immediately Treasury Minister in the pavilion court and two military trainers.

He then prepared to go the pavilion; everyone was there in ten minutes, "My son requested to send two hundred martial soldiers, prepare two hundred men for north border immediately," King ordered his military trainer and then faced his Treasury Minister.

"Collect as much resources and load on charts and send with martial soldiers, he needed more resources to fast the construction of forteBi," then King gestured them to leave pavilion, when everyone left, he called for his personal and Royal Guard and ordered him to stay with his son like shadow and if anything happened to his son he better knew consequences.

A muscular man wearing tight-fitting black gown bowed in front of King, he was carrying his sword at his back. Previous King trained some loyal guards whose duty was to secure King's family at any cost.

It was said that these were trained a hundred times harsh training and took blood oath before appointed to their duties.

They were said martial legends and as soon as they unsheathe their swords, they could singlehandedly fight with hundred men, no one could match to their speed and martial tactics, and they were trained hidden martial arts of dragon hunters.

Early morning Henan met Queen, she requested Queen that she wanted to go back her mansion for few months and to attend some matters regarding her State, due to his exceptional talent and standing General Zhong was given a small estate with the beautiful mansion.

This mansion was guarded by loyal soldiers.

Queen could understand her intentions, she needed to run that state after General Zhong her father and now she was able to hold her responsibilities, though fifteen years was a tender age for a noble girl like Henan, it was expected to hold her responsibilities reaching this age.

Queen agreed to her request after some hesitation and consideration.

She immediately asked her caretaker to pack the luggage that they were going back to her father mansion. Jie Lan was dispirited, she thought she would live in the Palace and would wait here to meet her sister one day yet this noble girl wanted to shift in her mansion, she halfheartedly packed luggage though she doesn't want to follow her there was no other choice either.

She wept in her room to remember her sister and stood up to tell the noble girl that she had prepared everything.

Henan doesn't want to waste the time, they immediately left the Palace, the carriage was ordered by Queen, they smoothly traveled two hours and reached the mansion. Guards of the mansion recognized her because she was in habit to visit mansion twice in a year, they helped to shift the luggage in, though they were helpless for the disappearance of General Zhong but took another oath to protect the daughter of their General.

When Jie Lan entered in the mansion with the bleeding heart, she saw someone stood there to welcome the noble girl, her mind was wandering the memories of her sister that she did not raise her head to look who was the one yet Wei Lan ran to hug her elder sister while screaming with happiness.
