Flowers Bloom from Battlefield

When Lin San opened her eyes, she was inside a carriage with Ming Xiao sitting before her. Hearing the movement from Lin San, he smiled at her.

”How are you feeling?”

”Dizzy,” Lin San answered. ”What happened?”

Ming Xiao narrated the situation from before in full, how the forces of the Mountain Kingdom came and the fact that their military strategist had ordered them to rescue the three of them. Even if they came a bit late, they still came in the end. No, they were not late since they came right at the time when they needed it the most.

”Jun Hua is here?” Lin San eyes brightened. She had been hoping for her to come, but she never had much hope in the beginning. Now that she heard the other party was here, she was hoping to see her.

Ming Xiao nodded. ”She is outside. When we stop later, you can meet her.”

Lin San nodded obediently. She took the seat near Ming Xiao and leaned her head against the latter’s shoulder. Ming Xiao’s body tensed up, but he relaxed once again after a few seconds. He looked towards Lin San from the corner of his eyes, and felt relieved that she was fine.

The two of them stayed like that for a while until the carriage stopped.

”Your wound is deep, and it might take some time to recover, so you’re not allowed to do anything excessive from now,” Ming Xiao warned.

Lin San nodded. ”I won’t do anything dangerous.”

Coming out from the carriage, she quickly spotted the little girl who was standing on the grass. She was looking around calmly, but that figure of hers was really enchanting. Even Lin San cannot say that she didn’t feel anything when looking at that beautiful view.

She has heard that Jun Hua was beautiful behind her veil. Although she still wore it, she could faintly see the other party’s complexion. With the sun set behind the other party, the view was incomparably beautiful.

”Second Sister,” Jun Hua smiled when she saw Lin San’s stunned face. ”Have you recovered?”

”I’m still a bit dizzy, but most of all, I’m fine,” Lin San quickly snapped back to reality. She answered with a smile. ”Thank you for treating my wound.”

”They are mostly first aid. We didn’t bring any doctor with us, so I can only do some treatment,” Jun Hua answered amiably. Lin San has truly grown and even Jun Hua can no longer sense the same arrogance in her voice. It seemed the rough time as the princess had further toughened her mental state. In any case, it was good for her.

Lin San nodded. ”It’s fine. You’re surprisingly talented, Third Sister.”

”Thanks to our father,” Jun Hua answered. Her voice was indifferent, but Lin San could detect the animosity she had towards their father. She didn’t blame her for she had seen how poor that man from the Lin family had treated Jun Hua before.

”Right, do you know where my brother is? They wouldn’t tell me no matter how many times I asked,” Lin San inquired. Lin Hong was her brother whom she cared for. For a long time, she hadn’t got the chance to meet him and didn’t even know where he was. She missed him.

Jun Hua nodded. ”I know, but you cannot meet him now. The quickest is when you reach 16.”

”I see, thank you for sparing him.”

From Ming Xiao, she had heard that Jun Min let her brother’s punishment change from execution. They sent him to some place that he also didn’t know. Her brother might be suffering right now, but just like her, he should have grown.

Jun Hua remembered that boy. Because of him, she had promised to not touch Lin San personally and would not deal any blow. Now that some time had passed, it seemed that her decision from before was correct. Lin San was no longer that arrogant young girl, but a mature girl.

”You’re welcome. The force from Nanglong family would soon reach this place. It will be better if we stay here to wait for them.”

”Right, before I forget, please give our thanks to the military strategist of the Mountain Kingdom.”

Lin San had heard from Ming Xiao that the forces from the Mountain Kingdom came because of the order from the military strategist of Mountain Kingdom. She wanted to give the person her sincere thanks for the effort of saving them.

Jun Hua was stunned before laughing. ”You’re welcome.”

”Ah?”

With a smile plastered on her face, Jun Hua added. ”You can count on me. I’m the military strategist of Mountain Kingdom.”

Lin San cannot wake up from her surprise even when the people from Nanglong family came. Lou was leading with Ming Hui on the side. They have been pacing their horse and suddenly meet with this group.

”Princess Strategist Hua,” Lou greeted, unsure how he should call the lady before him.

Jun Hua nodded. ”Just call me princess. My identity as the strategist of Mountain Kingdom is still being enclosed from the world.”

”Yes, Princess.”

Ming Hui hurriedly climbed down and looked towards Ming Xiao. ”Your wound is quite heavy. Let me take at look first.”

”Please check Lin San first.”

Ming Hui studied Ming Xiao face for awhile before a smile broke out from the corner of his lips. ”Sure.”

Ming Xiao knew from Ming Hui’s expression that the latter had known about his feeling, but he didn’t pay any attention to that. Taking the dazed Lin San to the tent, Ming Hui started to check their wounds.

Jun Hua looked towards Lou. ”How is General Soujin?”

With Jun Hua’s position, Lou knew that there was no way she asked with things related to war. What she wanted to know must be things related to his personal condition. But, Lou himself was not sure about Soujin condition since that general looked relatively fine.

”He looked fine.”

Jun Hua accepted that answer. She looked towards the direction of the Nanglong family’s location. A sad smile formed on her lips, but Lou cannot see it because of the veil. It lasted for a second before she turned to face the man back.

”I will need to trouble you to send them back. I need to return.”

Lou didn’t hold Jun Hua any longer and focused on bringing Ming Xiao to the Nanglong family’s territory as per Soujin’s order.
