Flowers Bloom from Battlefield

274 Farmers

Mountain Kingdom

"I thought that you didn't want to visit them?" Jun Qing looked towards his niece with a frown. The little lass was surely changing her plan without informing them before.

Jun Hua shrugged, "Well, Emperor Mou delays the war for a longer time, so I want to use the time I get by visiting my new friend."

She had heard the news of him marrying Tian Ni. Although the news should be something normal, she found it rather weird considering how Tian Ni has been chasing after Soujin all these years. How could she suddenly give up just like that?

Still, no matter how curious she was, there was no way she could infiltrate the Kai Kingdom once again and asked that empress about the cause. Not to mention there was going to be a war and she was needed on the frontline. The empress also would not tell the answer easily considering her position now.

"…" if that was the case, you should tell us sooner.

Jun Qing didn't come along because he wanted to, but because he wanted to supervise the training for the rest of the soldiers during the war. The matter of the palace was handed to Kuina much to the girl annoyance, but she still agreed as long as she got the officials' help since it was practically impossible for her to master everything that quick.

"You can go back first, Uncle," Jun Hua added, "I just want to visit my friend for a moment before going to the border and take the soldiers to war."

"In any case, I'm not leaving you alone," Jun Qing rubbed his forehead. When Jun Hua disappeared from his attention before, Jun Zhenxian threw his rage towards him for a long time before he finally calmed down. If he were to leave Jun Hua alone again, he couldn't imagine how Jun Zhenxian would react.

Jun Hua shrugged, "Don't worry. I won't tell Grandpa."

"…" you don't have to tell him. He would already know if I leave you alone.

"Just don't take too long. I will take this change to stroll the place around," Jun Qing waved his hand to tell Jun Hua to go away.

Jun Hua nodded and slipped away from the place. When Jun Hua had disappeared, Jun Qing finally remembered that the little lass were still dressing up as a girl. Wouldn't the little boy be stunned speechless if he saw the other party like this?

She quickly arrived in the garden and saw a bunch of boys working on the field. They were looking happy despite working under the hot glare of the sun and the vast amount of fields they needed to work on. Among them, she quickly spotted He Zhou who was working quickly and efficiently.

"He Zhou," she called the other party.

He Zhou turned around and stunned in his place. He felt that the sun was tricking him today because he could see a girl as pretty as a goddess in front of him. Wearing a fine blue dress, exquisite skin and hair, there was no way he wouldn't be stunned speechless. If that girl didn't wear a veil, he might have fainted on the spot out of shock.

"Yes?" He asked timidly.

Jun Hua smiled at him, "Have you forgotten about the friend you make in that carriage?"

The friend he made in that carriage? He Zhou's brain quickly worked to remember the time he spent in that carriage. He didn't remember making friends with a girl at that time. The one he made friend with was that big brother…. Wait…

"Min?" He asked with a trembling voice.

"Mmm," Jun Hua acknowledged it, "And here I thought you have forgotten about me."

"I didn't forget…" I just didn't recognize you in that appearance. He Zhou gulped his saliva down as he forcefully tried to come in terms that the 'big brother' he met before was, in fact, a lady, a stunning one at that.

Now that he thought about it, he found that the other party dress was extremely exquisite. Could it be that the other party was someone with a high ranking in this kingdom? If that was true, why did she sneak in as an orphan and get sold as slave?

"There are a lot of things I didn't tell you before," Jun Hua smiles wryly. It was not her intention to hide it from him, but she couldn't really tell the other party at that condition. In any case, she only came to check up on him and not to explain things.

"I see," He Zhou nodded his head, "May I ask for your real name?"

"Ah yeah, my name is Jun Hua," Jun Hua answered.

He Zhou mouth gaped open once again. Could you please not have such an outstanding identity? Jun Hua was the princess of Mountain Kingdom and everyone knew about how much of a beauty she was. Now that the other party was standing before him, he felt that he has been blessed by the Heaven to be able to meet with the other party like this.

"Stop being so surprised," Jun Hua said. "I come here to check on you for a while. What is your job right now?"

"Oh, we are being sent to an orphanage in this city," He Zhou pointed to a building not far from them, "They give us the option about the path we want to take in the future because there is a high chance that I won't get adopted anymore."

Jun Hua could understand that. He Zhou already reached the age of 13, it was unlikely anyone would want to adopt him.

"I choose to be a farmer here," he grinned, "Although I'm still just a worker today, I'm sure that I will become a successful farmer in the future later on."

Jun Hua nodded her head, "I'm sure you can. You seem to be very familiar with farming. Did you also farm with your mother?"

He Zhou smiled widely, "Of course, I loved to work in the field with my mother. She always taught me a lot of things about farming and I'm a quick learner, so I learn everything really fast…"

As He Zhou told her his story, she listened to them. Most of them were about his experience in farming and he even told her more about farming that she didn't know. After spending the time talking for almost an hour, Jun Hua bid her farewell because she still has work to do.

"I hope we can meet again in the future," He Zhou grinned.

"If you become a successful farmer, I will summon you to the palace," Jun Hua promised. From the way He Zhou talked, she knew that it would only take time for the other party to become a successful farmer. In any case, she wouldn't bother him anymore.

"Okay. Good luck Princess."

Jun Hua walked away from the field and headed towards her carriage. She found her uncle was looking at her with interest.

"What is it, Uncle?"

"I don't know that you like farming so much. Do you want to have a personal garden?" He asked mischievously.

Jun Qing should have known that she wouldn't have the time to tend a field by herself, but he still said something like that. She looked towards her uncle with a smirk, "If I can have my Uncle as my gardener, I wonder how that would be."

"You little brat! I'm the emperor, not a gardener."

While the two of them bantered around, the carriage started moving towards the border with Kai Kingdom.
