119 The Infuriating Princess

"Princess, I would appreciate it if you didn't bother General Jun Qing again," General Hen looks at the princess helplessly. After hearing some ideas, she just pointed out a few things before dumping everything to the other officials who can do the jobs better. In any case, she knows that she can't handle the matter as well as them, so why should she bother?

Kuina stick out her tongue. "He didn't mind it."

"But…"

Without he can say anything again, the princess had slipped out again. General Hen face palmed in defeat. If only the princess is a prince, he doesn't mind giving him a few sticks as a way to discipline him. The problem is, their leader is a girl…

"You should just let her have some fun," General Tou laughed behind him.

"But general… I need to find a good match for her and all."

"Isn't there another good candidate?"

General Hen face darkened. "Please, don't say that the next leader of Mountain Kingdom would be people who don't know politics…"

"Who knows?" General Tou laughed out loud as General Hen can only look in helplessness. Inside his hearts, he pitied the other officials who had to work until night just because the princess dumped all the works to them.

"General Jun Qing, what are you doing?"

Jun Qing has just wanted to go towards the field to have some training. He was cleaning up his paper when Kuina barges in.

"I want to go to the field."

"Let me go with you."

"But…"

Jun Qing wants to go there to practice and not to accompany the princess. Unfortunately, upon looking at her expression, he cannot bring himself to say no. In the end, the princess is tagging along with him happily.

The princess changed her clothes into a training clothes and joined Jun Qing soldiers in practice, but after an hour, she already cannot followed them. She watched them training from the side as General Hen comes to the field to beg the princess finishing her works.

"Princess, you still have mountains of paper to look at. Please return back," General Hen said in pleading tone.

Kuina pursed her lips. She doesn't want to go there and stay inside the boring room. It's better to stay here and watched this soldier practicing. At least, here she still has some entertainment rather than looking at those paper. She's not an official and doesn't have any plans to become one.

"Give them to the other. I never have any plans to join the court."

Despite she loves to nag her father about some matter, she never joins in the court even once. All this time, she would just voice out her opinion and let the officials handle it themselves. Before, they often ignored her, but now they all listened to her carefully.

Kuina is sick with those officials attitude. Although they are all loyal to her, she still found them annoying to look at. It's better if she stays here and looks towards the soldiers training rather than at them.

"Princess…"

"Just tells me the important matters. Am I looks like someone who's used with those things?" Kuina retorted back. She doesn't want to go there no matter what they said. It's not like she even knows that many things and she doesn't want to get fawned up days and night.

General Hen can only raise his hand in defeat. He stays beside Kuina as the girl eyes keep on following the soldiers. After another couple of minutes, a man comes towards them. He smiles wryly upon seeing General Hen face.

"Good day, General Hen."

"General Jun Qing."

"Princess, I think you need to finish up looking at your paper. Your people still needs you," Jun Qing said calmly.

Kuina pursed her lips. It's true that her people still needs leader, but she doesn't want to get confined inside a room just to look through things she doesn't even understand. They are truly boring.

"If you want me to look at it, then accompany me, General Jun Qing."

Jun Qing raised his eyebrows. Those documents are a secret of Mountain Kingdom. Letting him see it is the same as spreading the secret of Mountain Kingdom to outsider. If words were to come out, what would the others think of this princess?

"I'm only an outsider…"

"Its fine, you won't tell anyone," Kuina cut his words.

Jun Qing laughed dryly. "You really trust me that much?"

"Why not?" Kuina smiled. "You're a good person."

After being persuaded by General Hen, Jun Qing relented and accompanying the princess to her work room. In there, he finally understands why Kuina doesn't want to do it. The number of the paper here… even he cannot finished them all in three days.

Kuina take a look at a paper and after a few seconds. "Rejected."

"Rejected."

"Rejected."

This keeps on continuing for an hour. Only a few of them are not rejected with most of them are thrown to the side. The officials are all having their face blue from holding themselves back. The act of this princess is even more annoying compared with her running away.

"It's time to eat. You finished them all," Kuina said as she strolled outside. Despite her not acting gracefully, she still walks really elegantly. Years of practice in the palace didn't make her changes her habit and she is still a refined lady.

The papers are all too much and many of the matter are those she never touched upon, so she simply put them away. She only looked towards those she had some clear image and the number of those matters are simply too little. She doesn't want to drag her country down with her handling matter she didn't know, so she dumped them to the officials.

The officials who are left behind: Princess…. Please return back!

No matter what, the papers still need to go through their ruler permission. One way or another, they would need to force Kuina to look through at them and give her opinion. If she didn't know… they had to teach her… the path of becoming an official is sure hard.

Jun Qing followed behind her and they arrived at the dining room. He's forced by the princess to eat with her, but the palace foods are indeed good. This is one of the best dinners Jun Qing ever had. If he were to know that Jun Hua had been eating good meals every week on the capital, he would surely asks her to give him some. The foods on the military are limited and they never had many good cuisines.

"You seem happy, is it that good?" Kuina asks with a grin on her face.

"As a soldier, I rarely eat this good. Thank you," Jun Qing replied honestly.

"You should come here often. I will let them prepare good food for you," Kuina said as she stood up and walks to the balcony.

Jun Qing followed after her.

Kuina smiled towards him. "Thank you for accompanying me all this time."

"It's nothing. You're a unique princess."
