Chapter 158 - Going To Northeast Border



Soujin wakes up early the next day and starts to prepare everything. Lou had to catch up with his master who's eager to go to the Jun family residence. When Soujin declared his feeling towards Jun Min, he almost toppled out from his hiding place. He thought that his master had become crazy to fall for a woman to that point.

Coming out from his room, he noticed his mother was talking with a girl, but he ignored her.

"Mother, I will be going to the border for a few days."

Qin Shie nodded. "Be careful on your way."

"I will."

With that, Soujin disappear from their view. The girl had wanted to say something, but the words she was going to say stuck in her throat.

"Tian Ni, Aunty can't help you. You need to look for other people."

"Ni'er doesn't want to give up, Aunty," Tian Ni said with resolution. She doesn't believe that she can't make him like her after all this year. She had heard about his indifferent attitude towards women, so she believes that she had the chance.

Jun Hua is waiting on the living room. Soujin told her that he was going to take her to the border although she doesn't know the reason for taking her. Is it only to spend some time with her? She's not sure.

Jun Zhenxian is looking towards Jun Hua with question all over his face. He rarely sees Jun Hua dressed up so early in the morning and wear a veil on home.

"Are you waiting for someone?"

Jun Hua nodded. "Yeah, I will be going for a few days."

"Is it dangerous?"

"No, it should be not," Jun Hua think about Soujin. Is he dangerous? She doesn't think that this journey will be a dangerous one. There won't be anyone that could match them with their fighting skill.

"Why don't you help your grandfather sorting all of these requests?" Jun Zhenxian sighed. The paper didn't seem to decrease at all.

Jun Hua mouth twitched. Does being a princess mean she will be a popular one? That was a big mountain of paper… Her grandfather must work hard at reading those requests.

"Master, Princess, Prince Soujin has come," one of the servants come in.

Jun Hua nodded. "See you later, Grandpa."

Looking at Jun Hua walking away, Jun Zhenxian mouth is opened wide. His granddaughter is going with Soujin? What does that young man want from her? Somehow, he no longer feels like reviewing the paper anymore and goes towards Nanglong family residence to berate his old friend.

"Souka! You old dog! What has your grandson done towards my granddaughter?"

Nanglong Souka wanted to cry, he didn't even know anything about that. His grandson simply didn't allow him to know at all with all of his men are being beaten up black and blue. Looking at the furious Jun Zhenxian, he feels wronged, but what can he say?

Telling him that Soujin acted on his own without telling him? That was slapping his face by showing his incompetence. He wanted to scold his grandson for bringing him trouble to their door.

Soujin wouldn't even care about that as he's busy looking at Jun Hua painting. He had persuaded her to make a painting during their journey to the border. At first, the girl refused heavily, but finally concedes and started to paint the view of her house.

"You should have painted more," Soujin said.

Jun Hua just smiled. "I can't always do this."

"This painting is good. Can I keep it?"

Jun Hua nodded. Soujin took the painting and let the paint dry before rolling it up. He looks towards the girl before him.

"Will you move from the Ming Kingdom?"

Jun Hua nodded. "Don't you already know that?"

"I do."

Soujin know, but he doesn't want to let her go. He wants her to stay here with him, but he knows that it's merely his selfishness. He can't possibly confine her and trapped her inside. She had her own life to follow.

The journey took some time since the nearer border is still quite far. By the time they arrived, it's already the night. Soujin arranged some people to prepare the place for them to stay at night. The place is not luxurious, but it's clean and spacious.

"Does Nanglong territory big?" Jun Hua asked.

"It's not really big. You should have known that Ming Kingdom is divided into 5 territories, northeast, southeast, southwest, northwest, and central. The capital is located in the central territory while Nanglong family holds the northeast. This northeast is not really big because the bigger one is the central and northwest area."

"It has grown bigger because of war."

"Yes, the same as your family territory, we have expanded a bit towards Kai Kingdom and the east. The size is still cannot be compared with that two, though."

Jun Hua nodded. Jun family got the smallest area, but they have been expanding using war and conquest all these years. Their territory has grown bigger and she would not let it fall to the imperial family.

"What are you thinking?" Soujin asked.

Jun Hua raised her head. "I'm thinking how to claim our own territory out from Ming Kingdom."

"You can think about it later, eat then sleep."

The night has come and Jun Hua doesn't want to spend her time thinking about those things too. She eats some food then goes to the garden, looking at the city near them.

"Is Lanying over there?" Jun Hua pointed to the city.

Soujin shakes his head. "They are located farther to the east. You can't see them from here."

Jun Hua feels a bit sad, but they should have another chance to meet in the future. She wants to meet her, but probably it's better to be in the future after everything is over.

"I hope they can stay away from this."

"Maybe they can't."

"Because of Ming Hui?" Jun Hua asked.

Soujin nodded. Ming Hui has his own grudge towards the imperial family and he's not going to stay quiet when all of this happened.

"I see. I hope she can survive."
