Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower

"Master, there's a servant from the Long Family Residence. They brought a book and said that it's for the Second Young Master."

"Come in."

The servant walked in and carried a bamboo scroll. He handed it over to Song Chuan, who looked at the content for a moment before handing it to Song Yi Nan.

"This is the first test your master gave to you," Song Chuan said. "You need to memorize everything within a month's time."

Song Yi Liang looked at the thick bamboo scroll in Song Yi Nan's hand and silently felt glad that he didn't choose this path. Because he had the feeling that this was only the beginning for Song Yi Nan.

Song Yi Nan looked at the bamboo scroll and then raised his head. He smiled once more. "Yes, Father!"

After that, Song Yi Nan ran to the study room to start studying the book that his new master gave to him. He wanted to read it and if there were any words he didn't know, he will go and ask his brother or father.

Usually, Song Yi Nan would ask his mother but since he was not allowed to see his mother during this period of time, he could only ask his father and brother.

Song Chuan saw his son's appearance and shook his head lightly in amusement. After that, he looked at Song Yi Liang beside him and said, "You can go back to your study, Yi Liang. In the future, you will have to participate in the city assessment before you can go to the new capital city."

"Yes, Father." Song Yi Liang cupped his fist and left.

If it was not because Song Yi Liang was still too young, Song Chuan would like to let Song Yi Liang participated in the Imperial Examination in Cheng City. But since it was not possible, then he would not force it.

It would be better to let Song Yi Liang consolidated his knowledge and when it was time, he would send his son to participate in the Imperial Examination.

As for Song Yi Nan…

'You brat is really lucky.'

Song Chuan sighed.

He didn't expect that his son would be gifted and could enter Nan Hua's eyes. Because he knew very well that Nan Hua's master, Traveling Doctor Liu, is a very famous doctor who had made a name for himself for a long time.

There were many people who wished to be Traveling Doctor Liu's disciples, but he had strict requirement for disciples.

Nan Hua was one of them.

And it was said that she was very talented and capable.

There were not many people who had seen Nan Hua treated others, but Song Chuan knew from Long Qian Xing that Nan Hua's skills were really good.

For his son to be able to become Nan Hua's disciples, he was really lucky.

But at the same time, Song Chuan also knew that being Nan Hua's disciple might put him in difficult position in the future. Because there might be people who didn't trust Nan Hua's skills if she didn't explain that she was Traveling Doctor Liu's disciples and so on.

The matter of the Long Family being connected to the Song Family would also slowly resurfaced.

Even if the cooperation between him and Long Qian Xing could be hidden but the matter of his son becoming Nan Hua's disciples would be exposed sooner or later.

At that time, there would be endless troubles waiting for him.

"I hope that nothing bad will happen," Song Chuan murmured to himself and then went back to work.

No matter what would happen in the future, he just had to face it.

Anyway, it was not like this was the first time he was placed in difficult situation and Song Chuan was confident that he would be able to deal with it.

…

<Long Family Residence, Nan Hua and Long Qian Xing's side>

Nan Hua didn't know that Song Chuan was worried about the impact of her taking Song Yi Nan as her disciple.

To be honest, Nan Hua didn't think too much.

She would indeed take that brat as her disciple if he could pass the test well and taught him many things in regards of medical matters. But for other matters, she would not let the brat knew too much nor getting himself involved in those things.

Because Nan Hua knew very well that her past was not something that many people would be able to handle.

There were many of her identities that were not suitable to be put under the light.

It would be better for the people around her not to know about these.

After coming out of the carriages, it was still relatively early and there was still some time before dinner time.

"What do you want for dinner?" Long Qian Xing asked casually after Nan Hua handed a bamboo scroll to the servant, ordering him to send it to the Song Family residence.

He himself didn't care too much about Nan Hua taking a disciple.

After all, if Nan Hua didn't take any disciple, her medical knowledge would end up not having anyone to inherit. So Long Qian Xing guessed that if there was anyone suitable, then Nan Hua could take him or her to be her disciple.

He just didn't expect that it would be so fast.

Moreover, this brat turned out to be Song Chuan's son.

"I want to cook something," Nan Hua said. It has been a while since she cooked anything and lately, it was either Long Ai Ning and Xiao Yun who were cooking.

These two maidservants were secretly competing with each other and Nan Hua had seen it.

But today, she wanted to give them a break and cooked by herself.

It was just in time for her to try the medicinal food that her grandmother in law told her not long ago. Old Madam Long said that it was good for pregnant woman, so she wanted to try making it.
