Flowers Bloom from Battlefield

After Yan agreed, the emperor and the empress arrived on the hall. All the officials bowed and greet them. The two of them talked a bit before sitting on their chair.

Jun Min didn't look at them anymore and engaged on talk with the others. Her plan can wait for a little longer to make the people less suspicious. After all, why should she walk here and there too much during this time?

"Have you started going outside more often?" Jun Min looks towards Ming Hui.

Ming Hui shakes his head. "No, I prefer to stay inside and play with Lanying. I don't have many things I need to attend to."

Since Ming Hui is still acting as female, all he did is just maintain the stores he had and making profit from them. There is not much to do, because of that he would rather play with Lanying and study to fill up his free time. As for meeting the others, they would only normally meet once a week on that training hall.

Woman didn't have much to do until they're married and need to maintain their household in good condition. Because of that, Ming Hui didn't have many tasks. Aside from that, people know her to have weak constitution which makes them reluctant to make her do a lot of things, with the addition of his splendid act behind it.

Yan nodded. "You should have work more… It's really tiring you know."

"I know that there is someone who's going to help me in that regards."

Yan mouth twitched a bit and he refused to look at Ming Hui anymore. That brother of his is always making use of him… he needs to find a way to retaliate soon.

Soujin watched the performances and found them to be boring. He wished to walk outside to the garden since there is nothing interesting. They have been holed in this place for too long, it's not good to make other people suspicious over the reason they stay together too much.

"Let's separate," Soujin said.

Ming Hui nodded his head as Soujin stands up and leave them. He goes towards Fan Lanying with a sweet smile plastered on his face.

"Lanying, do you want to walk around with me? I'm sure that you're pretty tired standing here and do nothing."

Fan Lanying looks around once more. She was looking for Jun Hua, but she didn't manage to find the other party this far. In actuality, she wants to stay standing for a while longer in order to observe the people who come inside. But seeing the gaze from Ming Hui, she knows that she won't be able to reject the other party.

"Okay, where are we going to go?" she nodded albeit a trace of hesitation is there.

Ming Hui smiled back sweetly, completely picturing the innocent girl at the age of 16, "Let's eat some pastries. The one made in the palace are all top notches."

The moment the little lady heard the word pastries, she no longer remembers her original intention. Her eyes gleamed with excitement, "Let's go. I want to taste them too."

"Sure."

Jun Min watches her best friend being bought with pastries while shaking her head. This is the first time she sees this part of Fan Lanying. Though it may be cute in front of Ming Hui, she rather feels that it's funny.

Yan stretched his body. "I will tell the news to Ming Xiao first. You need to clean up that Lin Tang. Your time is limited."

"Don't worry, I plan to do it today," Jun Min regains her original composure and stands up. "Please excuse me, Prince Yan."

Yan froze for a second. That Jun Min had called him Prince Yan, what does he means? Yan looks towards Jun Min, but found out that the boy had disappeared. It seems he's more suitable to become an assassin rather than a general just by going on his ability to disappear.

Jun Min walked towards 'Jun Hua' and takes her outside. "Change to me."

Yamin nodded and quickly dressed up as Jun Min. Her face is actually the face mask of Jun Min, but because of the veil, no one realize it. Jun Hua herself takes off the face mask and does her make up again. Yamin returned back to the party with Jun Hua instructing her a few things to do. Not long after that, Jun Hua goes out without anyone noticing.

She walks to the garden and sits on one of the chair while looking at the pool before her. It seems what she did previously is not enough to destroy Lin Tang. She could see the other party is still going around trying to gain more supporters. That sight of him only makes her remember once again, her mother who was forced to suffer under him.

That kind of man is truly an eyesore. How many concubines had he taken again? She bet, their number will continue to increase as the men are trying to gain power which he would not grant. Trying to gain things without holding up his word, this man is really detestable.

Previously, she didn't act against him because of their blood relation and only leave him on his own. However, only after seeing him again did she realizes that she doesn't want to let him go and regain his power. With his conduct, there will be more morally questioned people inside the court, especially those who stays close with him.

Although she will surely go against the emperor and the people who sides with him in the future, she decides that she will deal with her father first. When the times come for her to ransack the entire court, he will not be there to see them being destroyed.

"Lin Tang, you may be my father biologically, but you have abandoned me and never treat me as your own daughter. Why should I spare you?"
