226 Process of Taking Over Yuan Kingdom (1/2)
Meeting the emperor, Jun Hua realized that Prince Tang Xuan was correct. The emperor would gladly give the throne for those who wished to unify the five big kingdoms. Jun Hua didn't have any wish for unification, but she will indeed fight with them all. Making them enemy was already a certain thing.
”I'm not sure about unification,” Jun Hua said slowly. ”If talking about the dream to unify all the kingdoms under one banner, that should be Nanglong Soujin and friends.”
”They are your friends. Why don't you talk with them?” Tang Xuan asked. He had explained to Jun Hua that he was not a prince; rather he was only a noble from the kingdom beyond the river. He came as the representative of their side.
”Jun Min is death, not even they know about it,” Jun Hua answered. The fact that she was Jun Min was something that she wanted to bury in the past. She no longer had any intention to become a man again, but since she was dressed as a man today, this man recognized her.
Tang Xuan considered for a moment. ”I'm sure the Nanglong family will come here too. Once, the emperor offered the throne to one of the Nanglong family members.”
”Nanglong Souka?”
Jun Hua still remembered the fight few months ago. At that time, she was a general and fight from the frontline. She heard the news about Nanglong Souka negotiating with the emperor of Yuan Kingdom. It seemed, the content of the discussion was not like what the news said.
If Nanglong family member came here, would it mean Soujin will come here? Somehow, Jun Hua already started to anticipate the coming of Nanglong family to Yuan Kingdom. She wanted to meet with the other party badly.
”Yes, he is the prime minister of Ming Kingdom. The emperor tells me that the Ming Kingdom is on the rise, but from what I can see it is two family on the rise, Nanglong family and Jun family. Unexpectedly, the two of you separated from Ming Kingdom.”
Two of us separated? Jun Hua hasn't heard about the Nanglong family separating themselves, but she knew that for this war, they ask for freedom. Is it the one Tang Xuan meant?
”I don't recall the Nanglong Family separated themselves.”
”Not really separation, but they have quite a lot of freedom right now, which I guess might end up with them separating themselves.”
Jun Hua was not sure about that. ”I don't know their plan, but there is indeed a dark history of us in Ming Kingdom.”
What happened years ago was not really clear for Jun Hua since she hadn't born yet. At that time, the Jun family tried to fight against the emperor only to be schemed back and destroyed by him. By the time she could meet them, there were only a few people left, including her.
The once prosperous family declined.
As for Nanglong family, they too had lost a lot of their member. Jun Hua didn't know the details too, but it should have happened when she was still a toddler. They could get off from the wrath of the emperor easier, but she didn't know how they did that since the Nanglong family kept the secret hidden.
Still, the secret of the four big families existed which made them became threats towards the emperor. Yet, the emperor hadn't realized it until it was too late. The movement from Lan Gao Ya, followed by Jun Min, and then there was Nanglong Soujin. There was still Lin Hong, but Jun Hua didn't know whether he will keep his word or not.
With all of them going against one person, she truly wanted to know how the emperor fared in the fight. Previously, he still has the support of a lot of people, and each of them fought on their own. The difference in timing made them defeated. Now that the three of them started their move around the same time, how will the end be?
Tang Xuan nodded. ”I won't ask you what had happened. What I want to know, what is your plan towards Yuan Kingdom?”
Jun Hua thought for a moment. ”I will let the emperor sit on his throne for now. Getting our hand on Yuan Kingdom may cause the other kingdoms to turn hostile towards us. For now, let the Ming Kingdom fight first.”
