Chapter 94: Stubborn Princess
94 Stubborn Princess
After Jun Min departed with General Hen, Jun Qing and General Tou also departed towards the capital at a slower speed. They used carriages and in this time frame, they discussed about the part of the kingdom the Jun family are going to take.
"Are you sure that you want this part of the kingdom?" General Tou asks.
Jun Qing nodded. He doesn't plan to make Mountain Kingdom lose most of their cities and he too has a lot of people needed to move. Because of that, he chooses the undeveloped area of the kingdom and some of the cities.
"It will be enough for Jun family."
"If you said so, I would tell the princess about your decision."
Jun Qing stared outside. "The wall is within sight. Do you think Jun Min has finished the whole things?"
"You will soon find out."
After getting inside, Jun Qing indeed found out that his 'beloved nephew' has left just the day before. Hearing this news, Jun Qing feels that his rage boils again. That little brat!
"Does he tell you where he wants to go?"
Kuina nodded. "He wants to go to the east part of Ming Kingdom."
Jun Qing thinks about it. From east, that boy is more likely goes towards the northeast, meaning the Nanglong family forces. He doesn't understand, based on the military prowess, the Nanglong family had, they shouldn't have many problems in facing Kai Kingdom, the kingdom located in north of Ming Kingdom.
"How about the general that comes from Pan Kingdom?"
"Your nephew had finished him off."
Jun Qing nodded. It seems like Jun Min had prepared for everything before he left. But really, he's still wounded because of the battle and he's still insisting to go? That little brat is truly a headache.
"Why don't you hold him here? His uncle is already worried about him," General Tou laughed. During their journey, he had noticed that Jun Qing is indeed terribly worried about his nephew and constantly waiting for news from him.
Kuina shrugged. "Why should you worry? General Jun Min is really capable and all. I don't think you would need to worry about him so much."
Jun Qing would like to do that, but he can't. In the first place, Jun Min is a girl and what worries him so much is the fact that it might get found out. Secondly, that brat is only 14, but he has already wandered to who-knows-where. How could he stay calm?
"Anyway, your decision for the place is unacceptable, how can you select those places, you need to pick some developed location…"
Jun Qing feels another headache to this headstrong girl in front of him. Why every girl he meets is are all so stubborn? First his own 'nephew' and now this princess, they both are truly hard to negotiate. Despite him telling the princess about his real objection in selecting those places, she doesn't want to accept it.
General Tou sighed. "It seems that what Jun Min had done is too big to make her bypass the Jun family."
It would be a good thing if this situation is normal, but the problem is Jun Qing feels another headache coming. The princess is keeps on nagging him and dumped the whole other matter towards the loyal officials who left. Those officials are already on the verge of tears from the overload they had…
"General Jun Qing, come on, this area is good too," Kuina said, peering her face.
Looking at that girl face from up-close, Jun Qing hurriedly steps back. The princess is another rare kind of beauty although she cannot be compared with Jun Hua. Jun Qing is a healthy man and he doesn't want to have any weird ideas from coming close with such a pretty girl.
General Tou coughed. "Kuina, you need to maintain your distance, General Jun Qing is still in his mid-20."
"Really?" Kuina looks towards Jun Qing. Because of his time in military, Jun Qing instead looks older than his own age, making people cannot guess that he's still 25. Besides, he's busy with the matter in the border, which makes him unable to think about girls all this time. Aside from that, the only beauty he had come into close contact with is only his niece who can still be considered a kid.
Jun Qing nodded seriously. This princess is truly looking for a trouble over here.
"You should shave your beard. It makes you look older. I thought that you're already 30 something."
Jun Qing wants to cry. It's normal for a man to have a beard, aright! Why would you want him to shave it all when he's already this old?
"It's a good idea," General Tou nodded.
"Let's return back to the matter on hand, okay," Jun Qing said helplessly.
Kuina flashed a playful grin. Jun Qing knows that his time here will be full of problems ahead. This little princess is not only stubborn but also playful!
…
Northeast of Ming Kingdom
"General, the leaders are running away," one of the soldiers reported.
Soujin is standing within their headquarters. He looks towards the moving army of Kai Kingdom. Although they are moving back, they're still not giving up the battle. Soujin stares at them coldly. He doesn't mind playing with them, but an important person had escaped from the battle towards the south. He cannot let that person alive.
"General You, you're staying here to finish them off. I will be chasing that person to the south."
"Yes, General!"
Soujin picks some of his soldiers before mobilize them. He's going to chase that one person before he returned back to the Kai Kingdom. If he thinks that going south can protect him, he's wrong. Soujin is not going to let him go easily.
