Flowers Bloom from Battlefield

159 You’re Truly Talented

Soujin brings Jun Hua to the training place after breakfast. The training place is big with thousands of soldiers are all busy training. Jun Hua looks around, this place is truly something to behold. Soujin brings her to a secret place where the numbers of soldiers are less, but their training is fiercer and their aura is more dangerous.

"Jun Hua, what is it?" Soujin peer towards the little girl face. She was staring at his soldiers with a little of an absentminded face.

Jun Hua shakes her head. It has only been a few times since she meets with Soujin as Jun Hua and it's inappropriate to talk about soldiers. Instead, she is curious why he is taking her here and not Jun Min.

"They are all my private army that's separated from the one I used to go to war. Their job is mainly in secret, but you don't have to worry as they are all loyal to me."

"Why do you bring me here?"

Soujin didn't dare to stare at that innocent face as he coughed. "I know that your brother must have something similar and I want you to help me compare them. That is if you can do it."

Jun Hua nodded. Of course she can, she is the one who makes the training in the first place. Her soldiers called it training from hell though, but since the result are good, she continues using it. Her soldiers even secretly called her the queen of hell, they know about her being a girl and all since they are her private army.

"Mao, let her see the training list."

A man came forward and handed Soujin a scroll which then he handed to Jun Hua. The girl opened it and started reading it. Her eyes look surprised. She didn't know what to say, their training is mostly the same, the sequence is the only difference between them. It seems, their ways of training their soldier are similar.

Jun Hua thinks for a moment. Is it alright if she divulges the way of training the soldier of Jun family? It's not like she had to keep it secret, though, since the two of them are really similar. Discussed it with him probably will instead help her.

"You must be the king of hell with this training," she joked.

Soujin is surprised with the girl remark. He thinks that she had become bolder and bolder as time goes by, but he likes it because it means she is getting comfortable around him.

"That's my nickname within here. How can you guess it?"

Jun Hua smiled. "Jun Min has a similar nickname and the training is similar with yours so I just assume that…"

Soujin laughed at that answer. His handsome face becomes even more dangerous when he's laughing freely. Jun Hua stunned at the sight of his laugh. She really needs to stay away from this man after all.

On the side, Soujin's soldiers suddenly feel glad. They are not the only ones being tortured with such training. There are others who had the similar fate with them.

"I see. It seems that we are all truly similar. I think it will be a good idea to talk with him to create a more effective training."

Soujin did want to bring Jun Min here, but he hadn't got the chance. With the number of spies out there, they can only spar sometime on the training hall or go eat some meal on the restaurant. If he were to suddenly bring Jun Min to the border, they would feel suspicious because Jun Min will be missing for days. As for Jun Hua, there are only a few people sent to watch her and it's easier to bring her for a walk without them noticing.

Jun Hua traces her finger on the paper. "I can talk with you about that."

"You're really a talented little girl, aren't you?"

Jun Hua smiled and the two of them started talking about the training order and all. On the side, the soldiers did their best to ignore these two voices while feeling despair. They know, their training is going to get even more intense in the future.

The talk lasted until evening and Soujin brings Jun Hua for a walk. Soujin handed the newly created training list to Mao, which makes his face ashen. They realize that they had encountered a terrifying new training maker.

"The view of the sun setting is really beautiful," Jun Hua watched the sun on the horizon with bright smile. The view over here is really different than the one she used to see on the southeast border. The sky changed colors and the light started to dim out.

"Why don't you paint them again?" Soujin chuckled.

Jun Hua glared at him. "Do you take me as a painter? I'm a Princess."

Soujin knows, he just teased her. He looks at her face still covered in a veil and raises his hand to slightly brush a bit of her hair. Jun Hua stared back innocently and didn't get angry like last time.

"There is still some time before dinner. What do you want to do?"

Jun Hua didn't know. "Can I use your kitchen?"

"You can cook?"

"A bit," Jun Hua nodded.

"Then, I will take you there."

Soujin walks to the kitchen with Jun Hua following after him. The kitchen they headed to is a small one that people rarely used. The one they usually used is full of people preparing for the dinner for the soldiers. Despite its not being used much, there are still plenty of fresh ingredients on the racks.

"This place is mostly used to save some additional raw food. You are free to use anything you want."

Jun Hua walked inside. "Do you have any preference?"

"You're cooking for me?"

"You don't want me to cook?"

"I do. Anything you cook, I will eat," Soujin answered.

Jun Hua nodded. She picks some of the vegetables and the others before cutting them skillfully. She rarely cooks now, but it used to be her daily activities back in the villages. Because of that, her cooking skill is not bad.

Not long after that, Jun Hua finished making a big bowl of vegetable soup and some rice. She turned towards Soujin.

"What about this one?"

Soujin pick up a bowl and chopsticks before taking the food. He tastes them then smiled. "You're a good chef. If the academy had another lesson called cooking, I'm sure you would pass with an excellent score."

"You're too exaggerating."

Despite saying that, Jun Hua is smiling and starts to eat with Soujin. Soujin didn't think that his praise was too much. The food may not be compared with the imperial chef, but it's far better than an ordinary chef. The little girl who is deemed as useless is actually a multitalented girl.
