Chapter 2312: Nan Hou Xiang
This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl
Prime Minister Lan arched his eyebrows when he heard the name that Prime Minister Xian read out.“Prime Minister Xian, do you not know the current situation of the Nan Family?”
Prime Minister Xian raised his head and looked at Prime Minister Lan with the expression of, ‘You tell me.’
Even though Prime Minister Xian has been in power for some time, but he didn’t have the hobby to meddle with these noble families’ business. He remembered some of their situations and the recent things that happened but if it was already a long time ago, then he would no longer remember any of them.
This included the matter of the Nan Family.
Besides, Prime Minister Xian was so busy with many other matters that he simply didn’t have time to care about this.
“Nan Hou Xiang might bear the surname of Nan, but he’s technically no longer part of the Nan Family,” Prime Minister Lan said slowly. “He’s the concubine child and his grandfather, Great General Nan, didn’t want to acknowledge his existence.”
After that, Prime Minister Lan briefly told the upheaval many years ago. To be honest, Prime Minister Lan didn’t remember the exact details anymore by now since it has been a long time, but he still knew a bit of them.
Listening to Prime Minister Lan’s words, Prime Minster Xian nodded. He knew that even if Nan Hou Xiang was allowed to live, but they couldn’t give him any preferential treatment. Because doing so might offend Great General Nan.
No one was stupid enough to do this.
After all, Nan Hou Xiang had nothing while Great General Nan is a honorable General in Fei Yang Kingdom. They knew who they should favor the most.
“Then next…”
Prime Minister Lan and Prime Minister Xian stopped talking about this topic and continued on to the next name.
…
<Fei Yang Kingdom’s Capital City, the Academy>
Nan Hou Xiang was staying in the academy. He didn’t know that he was being discussed by others and even if he knew, he didn’t have any time to care about it.
His life might be a bit difficult over the years, but it was not like he didn’t get anything.
At the very least, he was still alive.
By studying in the academy, Nan Hou Xiang had the chance to enter the court and become a minister, away from the influence of his grandfather and the other family members of his who were fighting on the frontline.
Some other students would mock him from time to time.
But by now, Nan Hou Xiang was already used to it. He knew that he was not the young master of the Nan Family and just an unwanted child who still managed to survive.
He couldn’t expect too much.
It was almost time for the examination and Nan Hou Xiang wanted to do his best. For this reason, he was busy reviewing at the late night. He wanted to make sure that he would be able to give the best answer.
“Student Nan, are you still studying?” A voice interrupted Nan Hou Xiang’s study.
Raising his head, Nan Hou Xiang saw one of the teachers in the academy walking towards him. He stood up and cupped his fist to show his respect. “Teacher.”
The teacher nodded and looked at the books in front of Nan Hou Xiang.
Given the situation of Nan Hou Xiang, it was not easy for him to focus on studying and applied to do the examination at such a young age. After all, many other people might only be able to become ministers when they were above 30 years old.
In a way, Nan Hou Xiang is actually a smart child.
His gene and talent was really not bad. But because he was born in the wrong place and the wrong time, he was not accepted. In the end, his prestigious identity was stripped and he was pushed to the bottom like this.
Despite all of this, Nan Hou Xiang had never given up on himself.
He still worked hard and strived to achieve his dream that he longed to have, which was to become the ministers and so on.
“It’s already late. Even if you study today, you wouldn’t be able to improve much of your performance for your next exam. It would be better for you to rest and prepare your mind and body for the examination,” the teacher advised.
“Student knows but student will only feel at ease when reading. Teacher, please forgive me,” Nan Hou Xiang replied politely.
Over the years, he still retained his etiquette and even went further, acting politely at almost every single moment.
It was as if in this way, he would not lose his identity that has been lost for a long time.
And no one knew why he was stubborn.
Even if it was difficult, Nan Hou Xiang seemed to want to merge this into his bones.
“You’re really stubborn.” The teacher shook his head and then motioned for Nan Hou Xiang to sit down.
The two of them sat down and the teacher looked at the materials in front of him. He could see that Nan Hou Xiang was interested in the war between Fei Yang Kingdom and Fan Yi
Kingdom.
This was indeed the most recent topic of discussions lately.
Even though majority of people believed that Fei Yang Kingdom could win, but a small minority of people thought that it was impossible for Fei Yang Kingdom to win.
They have already exhausted most of their resources in the two previous wars and it was simply impossible for them to have enough for the war with Fan Yi Kingdom.
Because of these two different views, there were many debates.
The academy was also involved because these students have their own views. But they were not as aggressive as those ministers and officials out there. They didn’t dare to speak out loud about this matter and only discussed in private.
The teacher had heard this from time to time, so he was not surprised when he saw the materials in front of him.
