253 Slipping Inside
Mountain Kingdom capital
After several days of journeys, Jun Hua and Jun Zhenxian finally arrived in Mountain Kingdom. Jun Zhenxian was currently meeting with the others inside the hall in the palace.
Jun Qing looked towards his father with a heavy heart."What happened to your hand, father? And where is Jun Hua?"
Jun Zhenxian could only tell the story of the battle with Lan Pan from the beginning once again. Jun Qing brows creased.
"Meaning, that person is dead and other people are bearing the burden for it?"
Jun Zhenxian nodded. They didn't want the Yuan Kingdom to bear the burden of hatred from Ming Kingdom. Since Lan Pan has been on a killing spree even before reaching that place, they chose to leave the corpse to that place. With that, Ming Kingdom would be more likely to blame Pan Kingdom.
By the side, Kuina frowned."But, where is Jun Hua? The soldiers are complaining because of the training that she designs is really awful."
Jun Qing and Jun Zhenxian looked at each other and laughed dryly. How could it not be awful? The amount of training that each person experienced was truly like hell and they themselves didn't have the confidence that they could finish it. However, they couldn't possibly change it because they knew the effect the training produced afterward was amazing.
"She is going to Kai Kingdom."
Kuina eyes almost popped out. She looked towards Jun Zhenxian speechlessly."What is that lass wanted from Kai Kingdom? Is it her hobby to go towards other people kingdom quietly like this?"
Jun Zhenxian could only smile wryly. When he first heard the news from Jun Hua, he too has been berating that girl until she has to explain the true reason. Although she only partially said the reason, that was enough for Jun Zhenxian to understand what she wanted to do.
"Overcoming big kingdom is not as easy as a small kingdom, " Jun Zhenxian answered.
Jun Qing brows furrowed."Does that mean she is planning to infiltrate the three big kingdoms all by herself?"
"More or less, " Jun Zhenxian answered."She wanted to take them down both from war and from inside. For Kai Kingdom, she plans to start from the inside."
Jun Qing wanted to smack that girl's head for good. That little girl was once again doing something outrageous. He really cannot think what was inside that little lass's head.
"Wait, does it means she is planning to unify the five kingdoms?"
"I think that is her plan, " Jun Zhenxian was not sure. At first, their plan was simply getting out from that emperor, and she would plan out the revenge play. However, now that things have grown to this extent, there was no way she would just let them go.
The problem was, they might not succeed in taking over the kingdom just by simply fighting like this. The force of Jun family was not that big and to fight continually was impossible. Jun Hua must know that this was the case, which was why she was taking a different approach.
Kuina sighed. She thought that with Jun Hua dropping her fa?ade as Jun Min, she would be able to live like an ordinary princess. However, this thought was really wrong and the other party was still inviting danger here and there.
"Is there anything she asked us to do?"
"The X Empire continues their duty, her soldiers continue training, and we can only do our usual job, " Jun Zhenxian said helplessly. The little lass didn't say anything excessive, but what she said was really troublesome. There was no detail in her instruction which gave him another headache.
Jun Qing turned his head to the reports on the table. It seemed that for the time being, he had to face with this stacks of paper...
Kuina looked towards that paper. She hurriedly turned away and walked to the garden. There was no way she would want to touch them again. The matter of managing her own household was already enough for her.
"Time for me to go, good luck Qing'er, " Jun Zhenxian smiled slightly.
"Can't you at least help me?"
"I'm already too old. I need to sleep more now."
"..." you're clearly lying, father....
...
Mountain Kingdom and Kai Kingdom border
Dressed in boy clothes, Jun Hua took her bag. Her face was using a different face mask, and she was eager to set off as quick as possible. However, there was still something she needed to do before she left this place.
Walking towards the wall, she could see the army of Kai Kingdom headed towards her. From the news they told her, she knew that the fifth prince of Kai Kingdom planned to clash the soldiers from Ming Kingdom with Mountain Kingdom.
Her eyes turned cold. Too bad, they didn't know that the Jun family has good relation with the Nanglong family.
Looking at the distance close to 350 meters from the wall, Jun Hua could see the crowds of the soldiers there. They were running with their back on the Ming Kingdom side and from this angle, it seemed they were losing really badly.
Jun Hua didn't bother with how they look like. She knew clearly that they wanted to take the advantages of them. At least, with them coming here she could show them her ability in archery. Taking the bow and arrow from the side, she aimed at the soldiers.
Jun Hua let the arrow loose towards the army and hit one person who fell from his horse. From this distance, she could hear they were shouting one name.
Fifth prince
Jun Hua smiled. The fifth prince was more that of a hassle compared with the first prince. Since the first prince was the crown prince, it was better to let them coronate such a prince rather than having a capable one. After all, the Kai Kingdom was always a threat for either Ming Kingdom or Mountain Kingdom.
Putting her bow down, she went down and found a horse to go.
