Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower

"Damn that Governor Nian!" First Master Jun felt that he hated Governor Nian so much. If it was not because Governor Nian has been in power for so many years and had many people under him, First Master Jun would have long knocked him off his position.

Unfortunately, he couldn't do that.

First Madam Jun was also gloomy. She hated this man who would not let her son become an official easily.

Isn't it just a matter of money?

She has a lot of money and there was no lack of it in the slightest bit. What she wanted the most was for her son to have a bright future ahead and to be respected by many people.

This Governor Nian should have been kicked down.

IT seemed that she has to talk with her family and the Mian Family so that they could cooperate together to deal with Governor Nian.

"What sacrificed?" After cursing for a while, First Master Jun heard the servant's words and frowned.

Jun Shi Lian is still alive, right?

How could it be said that he sacrificed for the kingdom?

"Yes, Master. Second Young Master Jun was injured on the battlefield and he come back to recuperate," the servant quickly answered.

"Injured?"

First Master Jun's eyes flashed when he heard this.

If he was not wrong, Governor Nian had only ordered people to gather funds yesterday to help these injured soldiers who returned from the battlefield. The Jun Family was forced to participate and donated a lot of money.

But if these large amount of money were split between so many people, it was barely enough for these people to live comfortably for three years.

If they were thrifty, it could last for a few more years, though.

But that was not the point.

"How severe is his injuries?" First Master Jun quickly asked.

He had seen Governor Nian was dividing the money to make sure that those who were injured the most would get the most money. After all, there was a chance that these soldiers could never return to the frontline anymore after this return.

In that situation, they would have to find other work in the city or return to the villages to farm.

Farming was still a very common profession in this era.

Moreover, war needed a lot of food, so Emperor Yang Zhou made them open up a large area around various cities for farming. Only in this way would the production of food would not be disturbed even if a large amount of food was allocated for war.

If Jun Shi Lian was heavily injured, then Governor Nian would have to distribute a lot of money to him.

In that case, can he took it?

Even if it would not be comparable to the amount of money he gave to Governor Nian, it could cover up some expenses.

It was better than nothing.

Anyway, Jun Shi Lian is his son, so there was no problem with him asking for money from his son.

"He seems to have broken arms?" The servant was not entirely sure about how severe Jun Shi Lian's injury was. After all, Jun Shi Lian's hand were covered in bandage and no one knew for sure how it is. Your next chapter awaits on My Virtual Library Empire

Broken arm?

First Master Jun frowned.

If it was just a simple arm injury, then there was chance for Jun Shi Lian to return to the battlefield in the future. After all, many soldiers were arranged to go back to the frontline if they were not retired yet.

But if the injury was too severe, then Jun Shi Lian might not even be able to use his hand at all.

In that case, there was no way Jun Shi Lian could go back to the frontline.

If it was the second situation, does it mean that he could take advantage of the situation?

After all, First Master Jun felt that Jun Shi Lian should not know the truth about how much money he could take…

"Let's go now." First Master Jun immediately stood up. "It's time to see that brat."

First Madam Jun looked at her husband and frowned. "You want to see him?"

She was worried that her husband would suddenly feel softhearted towards that b*stard boy. After so many years of living together, she knew his nature very well and didn't want to let him get close with that brat.

Thankfully, the few times First Master Jun met Jun Shi Lian, First Madam Jun could see that he didn't like the child either.

Because of that, First Madam Jun was complacent.

Now that First Master Jun wanted to see the brat, First Madam Jun immediately felt worried and looked at her husband.

"He will receive compensation as injured soldiers," First Master Jun said calmly, knowing that his wife should understand what he meant.

Hearing this, First Madam Jun's eyes lit up.

She also felt heartbroken when she thought of the large amount of money that was sent out to Governor Nian.

If not because they knew that they couldn't do anything to that governor, she would have long wanted to go over and complaint vehemently.

Now that her husband mentioned this…

It meant that he wanted to take over Jun Shi Lian's compensation money.

Right?

Thinking that they could earn a lot of money, First Madam Jun also felt excited and nodded. "Hurry, let's go there before he received it. If we can talk with Governor Nian directly, it would be for the best!"

"Yes, yes."

The servant watched the two people hurriedly go over.

He pursed his lips and felt that the second young master was probably not as important as the leaves that they could found everywhere on the street.

Jun Shi Lian was treated very badly in the past and now that he was back, all these two people could think was how to take advantage of him. It was really a bad luck of a lifetime to be born in such a family.
