"Hua'er?"
"I just feel it's good," Nan Hua replied. Long Qian Xing followed Nan Hua's line of sight and saw the farr in the distance. He thought about the ti when they first crossed this area and the situation after so ti had passed and there was also a smile on his face. It was clear that he also realized the difference. Within a few years, the people's life had changed, especially those who used to live at the border of the two kingdoms. The two kingdoms had been assimilated by Fei Yang Kingdom. Thus, what was left was only the bandits, which had been exterminated by the commanders and generals who were in charge of this area. Without wars and bandits bothering them, the people's live experienced a lot of improvent. They didn't have to worry about whether they would suddenly be called for war or whether they had to move because of war and bandits. No one would disturb them and their future seed to be full of hope. As long as they were able to work hard and fulfill what they should do, the future should be good. It was much better compared to the days full of bitterness. "Their lives will be much better in the future," Long Qian Xing said slowly. "And Yi City will definitely thrive the most with the trades have already started." Yi City, which was forrly Wei Da Kingdom's Capital City, was the city with several rivers connected to it. After the flood back then, which had helped them to conquer the city, the city was slowly being rebuilt. At the sa ti, there were a lot of people who worked hard to rebuild the city. The officials were placed here to make sure that the city could thrive. Within a few years, what developed the most was the water transportation. From the very beginning, there were already so trades done with the water, but the journey was not very safe and Wei Da Kingdom itself didn't really develop the water transportation for the sake of trade.
They were developing it for the sake of war. Thus, the developnt of trade in this place was still relatively slow. But after the bandits were destroyed, trades started to flourish and the army here would protect them to a certain degree. The system was not perfect yet, but in the future, this would definitely beco one of the major city's trade. And when live got better, the people's lives would also got better. "Yes." Nan Hua nodded, clearly agreeing with Long Qian Xing's words. For so reasons, she looked forward to those days, the days when the people's lives improved and there was no longer the need to worry about the waging wars. The days when people would be able to live better and all. Nan Hua felt that she was indeed very strange. In the past, she didn't care about her own life and death, much less about other people unrelated to her. But now, she was actually thinking about the people who would be living under Fei Yang Kingdom's rule.
How much she had changed and Nan Hua didn't seem to realize it until there were so thoughts that crossed her mind. But she didn't mind this change.
In fact, she liked it. Because it ant that she still cared for sothing, she's still a human being, and not a tool without emotions and feelings. The feelings that used to be her weakness and had to be avoided at all cost, now brought her comfort and joy. "Let's go, we can't stop here," Long Qian Xing said, his lip curled up slightly. He himself also knew that he seed to start liking the sight of the people's happiness. Even if he knew that their appreciation for him might only be surface admiration and gratefulness, it didn't matter. Because he knew that at the very least, he had done sothing and improved their lives. He had done sothing in the long road of history that might change so people's lives. It was enough knowing that. Because how lives would proceed in the future was not sothing that he could guess or arrange. How it ended up would depend on fate, but at the very least, he had beco one of the few people who pushed forward in this ti. "You're a good general, General Xing," Nan Hua said as she noticed Long Qian Xing's expression. The expression full of kindness and relief, yet at the sa ti, full of understanding. As a leader, it wouldn't be easy for him to be truly understood by the people. Because not all the action of the leader would always be in their favor. What people wanted was sothing that was beneficial for them.
But what a leader had to think was the overall developnt and the future. Sotis, what he did would not give imdiate result in the eyes of the people. Long Qian Xing knew this.
He knew it very well because he had seen many records in his previous life. So, he understood and would not take it to his heart. Long Qian Xing looked at Nan Hua with a faint smile. "You seem to understand very much, General Jun."
"I fought by your side for a long ti and had interacted with you for years. So I should have so understanding about you," Nan Hua replied.
What she didn't say was that she had followed him in his journey through that story, so she could more or less understand what he was thinking after observing him for years. Observation has always been sothing that Nan Hua was good at. Because if she was not able to observe things properly, she might not even be able to survive for so long in her previous life. "I don't consider myself as a good general." Long Qian Xing chuckled lightly and then added, "Isn't it enough for to beco a general renowned and passed down in history?"
