Flowers Bloom from Battlefield

”Princess Hui is sick?” Jun Hua turned her head towards Xia. This news is happening not long after she’s falling to the pond. The emperor must be cursing of his bad luck. After his birthday party, it seems trouble keeps on piling up.

”Yes, Princess, do we need to send our presents?” Xia asked. It’s the tradition that whenever someone is sick, their relative or friends will send some items. Usually, the ones who manage it is the madam of the house, but in this residence, Jun Hua is the only girl.

Originally, they don’t have any relation with Ming Hui since the Jun family barely had any interaction with her. However, with her being an imperial family member along with her second identity, she still needs to keep up a façade and send the princess some items.

Jun Hua nodded. ”Princess Hui is not someone who contends for the throne, it should be alright even if we send some item. Just remember to only pick things useful for health.”

”Yes Princess.”

”Calls me Miss.”

”Yes Miss.”

Jun Hua turned her attention to the book again. It seems that they have been planning things carefully. And, she will need to come to visit him…

…

Yan stared at the ’girl’ lying on the couch before him with dark face.

”I hear you’re sick, so I send some people to give you things. But, it seems that you’re perfectly fine?”

Ming Hui ignored his brother tone and stretch his body lazily. ”It’s not like I want to do things this quickly, but there are some changes on our plan.”

”You’re going away?”

”Yeah, for ’recuperating’,” Ming Hui answered lightly.

Yan sighed. ”That Soujin will surely come here stealthily along with that Jun Min. Where is your woman?”

”I told her to prepare for her things because the doctor told me to recuperate in the place close to nature, your area.”

”You bribed to doctor?”

Ming Hui rolled his eyes. ”The doctor who comes is surely those whom I trust. They are capable and the emperor would surely be snubbed. He wouldn’t worry much about this sickly daughter of his and gladly send me away.”

Yan wants to throw this guy out of this residence and tell the emperor about the truth, but he can’t. If he does, their plan will turn into shambles without any hope to success.

”Enjoy your time there. I have prepared the guards for you.”

Ming Hui nodded. ”When are you coming over?”

Yan passed him a look. ”Do you think a prince can go over and play around happily? The emperor would put more effort to look into our matter before deciding. We are not like you who are considered as freeloader.”

Ming Hui snorted and sits down. He picks the fruits placed on the table as his smile grows cold. He picks up a bottle among the fruits.

”This is sleeping pills, use them carefully,” Ming Hui said calmly.

Yan pick up the bottle from Ming Hui hand as he nodded. ”The hardest part in your life turned into the deadliest weapon in your hand.”

Ming Hui stared at that bottle as his smile grows cold. His eyes are reminiscing about the past where the emperor didn’t care about him and left him to die.

”I still hate him for that,” Ming Hui said lazily. ”But, I don’t want to stain my hand.”

”There are others who will do it on your behalf,” Soujin had appeared. He looks towards the bottle on Ming Hui hand as he nodded.

”You, Yan, and that boy,” Ming Hui smiled. ”I know.”

”I think, I want to applaud that emperor for making so many enemies even from his own house. I bet, there is no one with more enemies than him,” Yan said.

”What about Jun family?” Jun Min arrived on the room without any voice. Just like Soujin, the two of them slipped in without anyone noticing their arrival. Soujin knows that she comes since he can detect it from far, but he didn’t mention it.

Yan thinks for a while. The emperor only makes the enemy of a few people with influence, but Jun family is facing the whole family… they truly had a lot of enemies.

Jun Min looks towards the bottle. She doesn’t know what kind of past Ming Hui had, but she knows that it’s not something good. The four of them had their own grudge towards the emperor. Hers is because of the emperor plan to eradicate Jun family and forcing her mother to marry that man, as for the others, she still doesn’t know.

”You will leave the capital?”

”Yeah, my part is over in here. But I bet you all are going to get into trouble again,” Ming Hui smirked.

”Why don’t you wait until the festival? Don’t you want to bring Lanying there?” Jun Hua remembers that Lanying had come once and told her that she wants to go to the festival with Ming Hui. Now that Ming Hui had to leave, there is no way it can come true.

”I do, but there are some people coming after the festival day. Some of them are sharp and I don’t want to meet with them anymore,” Ming Hui pointed his chin towards Soujin. ”His childhood sweetheart is one of them.”

Soujin had black lines appearing on his face. ”I only see her as a sister, not more.”

”Whatever you said then,” Yan grinned.

Soujin send a glare towards Yan. ”It has been a month since I ceased training, how about if I give you a good exercise?”

”Not again!”

Ming Hui had noticed that Soujin is healing fast, which is a surprise for him, because internal damages usually take a long time. It seems that Soujin has fast recovery ability.

”Soujin have a fiancée?” Jun Min asks curiously. From what she knows about this man, he would not show any interest towards the fairer gender. She had completely forgotten that this is the same man that barged into her room just a few days before because of his interest.

”She is just a childhood friend,” Soujin answered simply, his tone clearly displeased.

Jun Min knows that the other party wouldn’t tell her more than this. Although she wants to know, she curbed her interest and talks about other superficial things.

As they are bantering inside Ming Hui residence, their hearts know, whatever their plan is, they need to start executing it before it is too late. The only plan they share with each other is the grand plan which requires the four of them to do, but for their personal grievances, they need to do it by themselves.
