193 Youth

Jun Hua wakes up early to meet with her grandfather. As per the usual custom, the newlyweds need to pay their respect to the groom's parents and elders. Somehow, Kuina told her beforehand that she wanted to see Jun Hua there too.

"Xia, Xiao Yun, help me get dressed," Jun Hua said with a yawn.

"Yes Miss."

Xia moved forwards to help with Jun Hua dress. On the other hand, Xiao Yun started to make Jun Hua hair. The little girl had been used with doing this kind of thing and can be considered really well. Her hands were truly agile and could learn really quickly.

"Miss, shouldn't your grandfather is enough?"

Jun Hua pursed her lips. If only Kuina didn't force her, she wouldn't even want to appear there and meet with them. What should she do? Teasing her uncle?

Wait, that didn't seem to be a bad idea.

Of course, she needed to first get pass her grandfather and got the chance to talk. If not, probably she can try to do something else during the time she's there.

Walking out from her room, Jun Hua headed towards the hall.

Jun Qing waited until Kuina was awake. The night before was truly a new experience for him. He looked towards the girl beside him who is still sleeping. Did he go overboard the night before?

Although he only did it once since it was her first time, he was not sure about her condition. Getting out from bed, he first prepared himself and told the servants to stay quiet. They were going to be late for the morning greeting, but he didn't want to wake the girl yet.

It didn't take long before the beauty opened her eyes. She looked towards Jun Qing who was sitting near her feet. Her cheek blushed at the memories of yesterday night.

"You're awake?"

"Mmhm…"

Kuina got up from the bed. She felt a bit tired and her hip was hurt. It will take her some effort to get onto her feet today.

"Are you alright?" Jun Qing asked worriedly.

"It's fine… My body just felt a bit sore," Kuina answered with low voice, rather embarrassed.

That one, Jun Qing doesn't know how to respond. He can only help her to stand up and dressed up before walking down the hall. His hand is on her waist, covertly sustain her to stand straight.

Other people will not notice it, but the two people whom he met all know about that. Jun Hua chose to pretend that she didn't see it and forgot her initial thoughts to tease them as she found herself unable to say anything. As a girl, she was the one who will feel embarrassed first….

On the side, Jun Zhenxian smirked for he understood what happened, but he didn't tease Jun Qing further. Only this time shall he rein himself for his son.

The greeting only last for a short moment and after that, Jun Qing led Kuina back to their place. He's still worried about her. After the meeting was over, General Tou came to meet with Jun Zhenxian and saw the two going back.

General Tou found it amusing. "Finally, the girl can tone down a bit."

"You're right. But, Qing'er is worrying too much. It's normal for girls."

Jun Hua felt her ears will be burnt if she stayed here any longer. Had these two old men forgotten about her being here? She stood up and bowed towards her grandfather.

"Grandpa, I will be going now."

Without waiting for answer, Jun Hua had sneaked away and disappeared from the hall. Jun Zhenxian can only watch with laughter. It seemed she didn't want to hear about these things.

General Tou looked towards the old man. "Hadn't she encountered some matters during her time acting as a boy?"

"Not really, how many times do you think can get close to other people during battle time?" Jun Zhenxian shrugged. "Besides, she doesn't have any interest towards women."

"…"

That was not what he meant. General Tou chose to ignore the answer from this old man as he walked to the window and looked outside.

"That Jun Qing already started training again."

"He's still young, it's normal to have a lot of energy," Jun Zhenxian said leisurely. "When will the coronation take place?"

Since Jun Qing had married Kuina who was considered the empress and the sole leader of Mountain Kingdom, he would become the emperor. The age for coronation was 22 and Jun Qing was already 25, so he would surely be chosen as the new leader. After all, given how the princess loved to sneak away and dump her job, the officials would be glad if there was another leader.

Genera Tou thought about it and he felt that having Jun Qing as the emperor might not actually be too good. The young man didn't know anything about politics and even if he did, he was a general. He would surely choose to lead the soldier by himself.

This was the first time they encountered something like this. Two unreliable leaders had been chosen. General Tou began to pity the people who work under them. They would need to work until they were dead tired since the two of them were two highly idiot people in regards of politic.

"A month later," General Tou answered. "Before that, you have to make sure that Jun Qing learned about politic fully. I don't want him to just know things about military."

Jun Zhenxian cannot answer that. He can't make sure that Jun Qing could learn about everything related to the politic in the short span of time. But at least, he knew that the young man wanted to learn it.

"I will talk to him about it. Don't worry."

Jun Qing needed to learn things a leader has to know. Because of that, Jun Zhenxian had drilled him over and over during the span time of one month. Kuina would sometimes participated, but she would mostly run away and wait in some place until Jun Qing finished.

Looking at how their attitude when learning, General Tou had to learn to be patience while General Hen already berated Jun Qing countless times. Since he cannot berate Kuina, Jun Qing became the target for his scolding.

While they were busy drilling Jun Qing, Jun Hua was busy talking with her new aunt.

"Uncle would return back late. Auntie, don't you want to accompany him?" Jun Hua teased.

Kuina was still not used getting called an aunt, she glared towards Jun Hua. "Stop teasing me. That Jun Qing is truly something to learn that much during this span of time."

"He wanted to be a good leader."

The time for the coronation will be highly important as it was also the time they announced to the world the real identity of Jun Qing. Not long after that, they need to proclaim that the Jun family was no longer the part of Ming Kingdom. This way, they won't be banded together with that kingdom anymore.

"Yes, I know," Kuina pursed her lips.

Jun Hua shrugged, "Auntie, you can also learn them if you want. It's not like you're too old to learn."

Kuina was stunned to hear Jun Hua's words, but she just smiled wryly. "Hua'er, I'm different with you."

"Well, we are indeed different. You come from Mountain Kingdom while I come from Ming Kingdom, then you're five years older…"

"Not that," Kuina pursed her lips. She looked at the servants around her before standing up, "Let's find different place to talk."

Jun Hua raised her eyebrows in curiosity, but she decided to follow the other party.
