137 Imperial Party Again

The birthday date for the emperor soon comes again around the corner. The emperor and empress all prepared for it even more grandly than the year before. It's because the war had just ended in their victory and many people still talk to it. The celebration ornaments are all put up again with people bustling here and there.

Jun Hua dressed up as Jun Min again and this time, she made sure that his appearance looks more like man. She had reached the age of 15 and it's obvious that this age is the start of the marriage for young girls. Normally, they would be engaged even before the girl reached 15, but in Jun Hua case, she had only got the boost of reputation this last month.

Her grandfather has been sorting out those good men and the bad one. He didn't even bother looking towards the information of those men he deemed as unsuitable. In Jun Hua eyes, it would undoubtedly take him a long time to finish up reading all of them. Anyone her grandfather chooses, she will just comply. After all, she believes that her grandfather won't choose anyone bad.

"Miss, the carriage is ready," Xia called.

Yamin had dressed up as Jun Hua again and with the face mask, she looks pretty. Although she had different aura compared with the real Jun Hua, she had been practicing how to walk like her as girls and boys. Because of that, it would be hard to differentiate between the two of them if one didn't know.

Jun Min nodded and goes outside. Jun Zhenxian looks at both of them helplessly.

"If I didn't know that it's a face mask, I would think that both of you are truly similar."

Jun Min didn't increase much in her height, but Yamin started to grow taller. Her body already starts to become more feminine as of lately too. This fa?ade needs to end soon, but Jun Min hadn't found a perfect way to do it. There is no way she could just make one of the identities disappear into thin air.

Jun Min nodded. "I will soon find a perfect plan to end this grandfather. You can rest assured."

"How can I rest assured when I think about the things you may do?"

Jun Min wants to say that it is her words. Just how many times does Jun Zhenxian acted on his whim? Even the incident few days before was still fresh in her mind about how this grandfather of her chooses to destroy the hall without much thought.

However, Jun Zhenxian words are not wrong she knows that she occasionally does things outrageously. Still, everything was not beyond the scope of normal. If her grandfather knows her thought, they might enter a long debate over who's the real troublemaker among them.

She walked into the carriage and gets into one of it. During the journey, she once again looks outside and sees that the people are still the same. They are looking at this carriage with reference just because they know that Jun Min is now a titled prince. Her smile grows colder, that emperor with just a word can destroy them and another word to change their status. If it's the previous emperor, no one would complain, but for the current emperor, it will be a miracle if they all stay loyal to him.

As the carriage passed through the roads, Jun Min finally sees the palace. It seems she still needs to attend this annoying birthday party. But this will be the last. She won't be here anymore next year.

When she walks out, many other nobles are looking towards her and smiled. She only glanced and nodded at some of them. She walks inside with 'Jun Hua' on her side, walking gracefully.

"They are the Jun family?"

"Both of the youngsters are really handsome and pretty. They're the prince and princess of this kingdom with a different surname, right?"

"Indeed, what a beautiful pair of brother and sister."

Many people expressed their thoughts rather openly. The appearance of both Jun Min and Jun Hua is not a secret, so many of them didn't find it weird for people to talk about them. Most of them feel rather envious. After all, if they could have that kind of appearance, they know that they would be the one being talked enviously by others.

As for Jun Hua, she didn't care much about those people thoughts about her. She ignored the talking of the nobles as her eyes scanned the surrounding. She quickly spotted her friends gathered in one of the spots inside the big hall.

"Yamin, stay away from the spotlight," Jun Hua instructed her guard in a low voice.

"Yes," Yamin answered mildly. Because she's an assassin, it will be easy for her to slip away and stay in some place where people hardly go there. She stays calm and hid herself as if she didn't exist and people also didn't dare to come near her. Jun Hua is now a princess, an honorable one at that too, which renders people to not come near her unless necessary.

Before long, her existences faded out from among the nobles and no one would know that she was there previously.

Jun Min walks towards Soujin and the others. They seem to be in good mood and she could even see that Yan attends the party when he's supposed to be grounded. She greets them informally and turns to Yan and asks, "You are not being grounded again?"

"Nope," Yan grinned. "It seems the emperor is in good mood, so he let me away from my punishment this time."

"If you were to flood Nanglong residence again, I doubt they will let you go lightly," Soujin said in calm tone. He heard from his grandfather that this friend of his had gone making trouble by flooding Nanglong residence just because his grandfather mentioned Young Noble Yan.Despite feeling a bit displeased, he didn't show it at all.

The matter already passed for a long time before he comes to know about it. Even if he keeps a check to his family residence, his main priority would always be his mother, so he didn't really care about this news. Besides, he only manages to meet with Yan today because this 'great merchant' has just returned from his trip to sell his goods to Kai Kingdom.

Yan feels chills creeps on his back. "Hahaha, I didn't mean to offend you…"

While Yan try to please Soujin, Ming Hui rolled his eyes and sipped his drinks in elegant manner. A bit far away from him is Fan Lanying. The girl is standing with dress because she's a noble too, but at the same time, Ming Hui's guard.

Fan Lanying eyes flashed a bit when she notices Jun Ming coming. She knows that the other party is Jun Hua's brother, which makes her feel rather impatient to ask him about Jun Hua. Aside from that, she wants to know where Jun Hua is because she can't find the other party.

Jun Min turned her eyes towards Ming Hui, "Thank you for the other day."

Ming Hui quickly understands what Jun Min's implying. He looks towards the other party and sighed, "You might need to have someone check on your sister quite often. She is really clueless in things about women."

Jun Min: "…"

She knows that she is not good at women's matter, but should he point it straight to her face? Right, he still doesn't know that she is Jun Hua yet. She wonders when she could tell them the truth with how the things have progressed.

Ming Hui didn't notice Jun Hua slight change of atmosphere as he asks, "By the way, how's her condition? Does the medicine work well?"

Jun Min can guess that he is asking for Fan Lanying, so she increases her volume in speaking, "She is fine and her condition improved after drinking the medicine. She also attends the party, but I didn't let her follow me."

Ming Hui nodded his head. It's normal for Jun Hua to not follow her brother when Jun Min is visiting his male friends. Men and women should maintain their distance and he knows that it won't be good for Jun Hua's reputation if she gets close with them.

The real reason is because she doesn't want them to find out that Jun Hua is in fact Jun Min. With the minute difference between her and Yamin, she didn't doubt that they would know because they are the one most familiar with her when she is dressed as Jun Min.

On the side, Fan Lanying secretly heaved a sigh of relieve. If Jun Hua is here, she might be able to meet with the other party. Her gaze brightened as she thinks of a way to secretly sneak out when she found Jun Hua.
