Flowers Bloom from Battlefield

The ceremony finally ended. Jun Qing sat on the throne with Kuina by his side. He looked towards the door. All along he knew that there was ruckus outside, but he held back himself because he had promised to finish the ceremony. He knew, if the ceremony was halted, he lost the fight.

"Call General Zhenxian and General Tou," Jun Qing ordered.

The door opened and two people come inside. They look incredibly joyous. Seeing their expression, Jun Qing could finally felt at ease. Has it finally over?

"What is the ruckus outside?" Kuina inquired.

"Replying to the Empress, there is riots happening on Mountain Kingdom, but they have been put off by the soldier from Jun family."

Hearing that, the officials were all stunned. This was the first time they truly heard about the might of Jun family, but they are all highly curious. The two leaders of Jun family were staying at the capital, who could possibly lead the soldier?

Jun Qing lips curled up. It has finally come the time when the real skill of Jun Hua brought to the whole world. Let them see just how genius that girl is… in terms unrelated to the girl stuff!

Kuina smiled slightly. She wished the girl to get recognized, not as the Jun Min who now had been considered dead, but as Jun Hua. She might not get the chance to swing her sword like the past, but she can become another great person.

"Who is the leader?"

"The leader is Jun Hua, the niece of Emperor Jun Qing."

That was an unexpected answer. Most people had heard about the 'glorious' deeds of Jun Hua. Failing her examination, walking stiffly, cannot hold the brush straight, and so on. Now, hearing the same girl doing something like leading war, they cannot connect the thought immediately.

"That useless girl?"

"Why am I feeling that this news is false?"

"Are they kidding?"

Jun Qing ignored those people whispering under him as he continued to ask.

"How did she lead them?"

"Young Miss Jun Hua leads them by ordering the people around her to lead the soldier using some inconceivable way. It seemed she can read how the people are moving."

The messenger tried to put it with a simple way, but even he found it hard to believe what he said. The princess only stay on the carriage, occasionally looked towards the battlefield, but she never even came out from the carriage. He didn't know what she did inside, but all of her order were correct and on the right path.

Jun Qing knew how the girl had done it. Even before, when she was only at the border, she can predict the enemies' movements correctly. She told him that she did the calculation by evaluating the condition of the geography and the place the soldiers come from.

Although when she was young, her countermeasure attack were somewhat lacking, he knew that she will polish it and learn to be better. Now, the talent has started to shown outside.

This talent was somewhat scary, but he knew that the little girl was smart at counting. He didn't really understand what she counted, but whatever it was, it's something incredible. How many people can count and guessed correctly the place where their opponent lies?

Kuina nodded satisfied. This way, Jun Hua didn't need to go to the battlefield personally anymore.

"I have a proposal for you all."

The officials are all turned towards the empress. Taping her finger lightly, Kuina had a smile plastered on her beautiful face.

"I nominate Jun Hua as the military strategist of Mountain Kingdom."

Jun Zhenxian and General Tou were stunned in their place. This empress was surely one that shocked people, they hadn't agreed with this before. But, considering it, it was better than to let the world only knew Jun Hua as a useless little girl.

The empress was surprisingly a girl with unexpected ideas.

…

Jun Hua was lying on the couch inside the carriage. By her side, Xia was fanning Jun Hua while the carriage still moved towards the capital. Xia was still astounded by the move that Jun Hua had ordered the soldier. All of them were spots on, and not a single one of the perpetrators was left. They were all either caught or killed.

Looking towards the tired girl on the couch, Xia cannot bear to see her like this. She would have preferred to have her Miss teasing her or anything else. When she was lying on the couch like this, it seemed that she was already on the death door, something that Xia hoped wouldn't happen.

Jun Hua opened her eyes. "Why are you looking so worried, Xia? I'm just resting my mind and eyes over here."

"But Miss, you seemed like you're terribly sick," Xia pouted.

"I'm not, It's just I feel like my brain has been overworked because of that," Jun Hua said with laugh.

"Overcooked?"

"Overwork, can you even cook your brain?" Jun Hua was speechless. To think this girl would mishear at times like this. Not to mention that the word was cooking. How in the world one would think about cooking at this kind of time?

Xia face turned beet red. It seemed she needed to pay more attention to her Miss. It was really embarrassing. To calm herself down, she took out some pastries and handed them to Jun Hua.

"You need to eat first. It will help you a bit," Xia said.

Jun Hua put herself in sitting position. She felt like she had been working for days without rest during that time. Calculating everything on her head was truly tiring. Even when she played the chess against Soujin and the other, it was not that tiring.

Eating the pastries, Jun Hua thought about the reaction of the people in the capital. However, she would never expect that there was an outrageous proposal Kuina said to the officials.
