203 Marching (1/2)
City of Long Han, Nanglong family territory
Soujin looked towards the spy with complicated gaze. The news that the world would know was the fact that Jun family had separated themselves from Ming Kingdom. This news from his spy has the additional one; the military strategist of Mountain Kingdom was Jun Hua.
If it was other people, he would not care about him. But, since this news was about Jun Hua, he cannot do anything. Should he fight the Mountain Kingdom, the one whom he will face was the little girl, Jun Hua.
”Soujin, what is it?” Ming Hui looked towards the troubled Soujin with eyebrows raised. Had something happened with his friend?
They were in Ming Hui's office. Soujin had returned from his survey and stayed here for some time to chat with his friends. It was then he got the news he had been waiting for a month.
”Jun Hua is the military strategist of Mountain Kingdom.”
Yan almost spurted out his wine. ”The lass is that great?”
Being a strategist in an army is one thing, but being the military strategist of a kingdom is another thing. The scales of these two were completely different and they cannot be compared with each other. Controlling a small number of soldiers was highly different with large amount of soldiers.
Ming Hui was also startled. He looked towards the spy with unbelieving gaze. He can hardly come into the terms with that girl being a strategist, now she became the strategist of the kingdom? How in the world she managed to elevate her rank so suddenly during the time span of 1 month?
Soujin nodded. ”Does this news spread out?”
The spy face was weird, but he narrated the event when Yasha had suddenly appeared and tell him that news. Hearing that, Soujin asked him to tell him the physique of Yasha which the latter narrated it perfectly.
”That was Yasha, right?” Yan remarked. ”He's the one who came out when Lan Ping tried to run away.”
Soujin also remember that person. He could guess the person appearance from the description, but he didn't understand what the other party intention was by telling them these. Given how highly guarded this news was, it was likely that Yasha had come with another person order.
Ming Hui looked towards the book in front of him. ”Soujin, would your guard listen to another person word?”
Soujin brows creased. There was no way his subordinate would listen to the words of other people aside from him. Given that he's their leader, they would listen to him and he had trained them to only listen to him. He would never allow them to follow other party order.
But that remark from Ming Hui made him understand. Among the Jun family, who can send Yasha? At the time of the incident, there was only one person who can order him to stop from killing Lan Ping since they cannot make him move from that spot.
”Jun Hua,” Soujin muttered out.
”What is it?” as usual, Yan still cannot understand what was his friends were talking about. But, their expression seemed complicated.
Soujin now knew that the one sending the news was Jun Hua. Why would she want to tell him something like these? He didn't understand the little girl way of thinking, but if she wanted to tell him that she will participate in the war, she had succeeded.
Ming Hui sighed. ”You better go to the border. They would be coming soon.”
Soujin nodded. He no longer has any time here. Since the Jun family had declared their stand towards the world, it's time for their responses. And those responses were not exactly a kind one.
”Ming Hui, that girl of yours. Are you fine with her being sent to the battlefield?”
Ming Hui truly wanted to object it, but he didn't want to rob Fan Lanying from her dream. Since she wanted to become a great general in the future, then he would support her. It will be painful to wait here, but he should manage it.
”Soujin, please take care of her.”
Soujin nodded. ”I know.”
”Don't let any mishap happened to her, or I will be chasing after your head.”
Soujin didn't answer anymore and walked outside. Ming Hui sighed. It seemed in his case, the role of the male and female had been reserved. Usually, the female would wait for their man to return, but here he had to wait for his girl to return.
”Why don't you just marry her?” Yan didn't understand.
Ming Hui glared at the other party. ”Men can only get married at the age of 18.”
It is then Yan remember that Ming Hui is only 17 this month. Poor boy.
