178 The News Spreads
City of Long Han
A young man is watching the paper containing news from Ming Kingdom with a grim expression. The girl beside him also looks worried. It can\'t be helped, the news they get from the capital is truly shocking.
"Do you think Jun Hua will be alright?" the girl, Fan Lanying, asked with worried tone.
Ming Hui didn\'t answer. After coming to this city, he had been dressed as man when he\'s inside the house. There is no one watching him anymore like when he\'s still in the capital, so he\'s feeling more comfortable. Besides, he has been trying to erase the presence of \'Princess Ming Hui\' from existence here.
He thought that each of them would be able to get out from the capital easily because of the incoming war. However, this news really caught him off guard.
"I don\'t know, Lanying. Just hope for the best."
Fan Lanying nodded. Her heart cannot stay calm, but she cannot possibly go to the capital right now. There must be quite chaotic in the city with this kind of event happening.
Ming Hui is more worried about Yan and Soujin. From the story, he knows that the two of them are walking with Jun Min before the incident. They might not be able to accept this kind of ending. If Jun Min were to die in the battlefield, they would be sad, but they would be sad for a few days at most before plotting for revenge.
This time, they might harm themselves for not be able to prevent this from happening, which is quite worrying. But one thing for sure, the Lan family is done for.
"I\'m sure, they are going to be alright."
Fan Lanying can only accept what Ming Hui said as her hearts still in chaos.

Mountain Kingdom
Jun Qing stared at the message in his hand with complicated expression. He had heard the news in the capital that Jun Min had died. At that time, he almost takes his sword to go to the capital in a fit of fury. Then there is a message from Jun Zhenxian coming here. The message is short.
\'Take care of yourself. Your father and Jun Hua will come there soon.\'
That message explained to him everything. The one who died is Jun Min, but Jun Hua is still alive. It means, that incident is something that little lass had planned beforehand to finally erase the name of Jun Min from history.
But that little girl is really ruthless. She purposely waited until there are people coming to plot against her, and then she used the scheme to deal with them. Causing them to lose even more terrible than what they bet at first.
"Kuina, you can come in if you want to."
The door opened and a girl comes in. Kuina looks towards Jun Qing with worry.
"Jun Hua, is she?"
"She is fine. That death of Jun Min is only her plot, you don\'t have to worry," Jun Qing beckoned for her to come nearer.
"Really, she even faked her death?" Kuina looks surprised.
Jun Qing laughed. "You can never guess what is in that lass head. I think she had been planning for this kind of thing for a long time. She was just waiting for a good time to erase her identity as Jun Min and proceed with only being Jun Hua."
This time, she used that Lan family to bear the burden of her death. It seemed that her favorite move is making her enemy bear the burden of killing someone. First, there is that brat, Lin Kang who \'died\' from falling off cliff. After that, the concubine of Lin Tang who burned herself, that time it\'s not her ploy, though she participates in ending it. And now, she used herself.
Jun Qing wouldn\'t want to be the enemy of Jun Hua because he knows full wells of the army behind her and her capability. As her uncle, he was surprised over and over again of her ability that surpassed the norm.
"Seemed like I got quite a capable niece," Kuina grinned.
Jun Qing smiled. "You only praised your future niece?"
Kuina giggled and whispered, "You too are great."
Despite her voice is small, Jun Qing still can hear it. He laughed hearing that, but still controls himself to not get close with that girl.
After talking for a moment with Kuina, he walked away to meet with General Tou.
"You\'re telling me that it\'s just the little girl plot?"
Jun Qing nodded. "Jun Hua is still alive and well in Ming capital. She will soon come over here for me and Kuina\'s wedding. But, you\'re not allowed to talk about the fact that she\'s Jun Min."
"I won\'t," General Tou knows very well the danger behind those facts. If not for him had witnessed for himself just how capable the Jun family are, he would never chooses to ask for their help in the first place. Thinking about it now, he feels that he had made a correct decision to ask for their help.
The young man would become his new emperor, the young girl is a hidden general, and that old man is an old veteran great general who can manages economy from behind skillfully. This small family is truly terrifying.

A certain city in Mountain Kingdom
Yabei stared at the message on his hand with helpless expression. That Miss of theirs had gotten them off guard for good.
"Yabei, what is the content of the message?"
Yabei passed the paper. The expressions of the others are all turned weird. They have been thinking of launching a revenge attack against the Lan family, but this simple message had turned their motive down.
The Dark Squad is to stay on their place. No one is allowed to leave their post.
Jun Hua
"Miss is still alive."
"I better go back first. Where is my equipment?"
"Here you go."
"I think I left something on my home. I need to return first."
They are all dispersed quickly and returned to their respective place. Yabei didn\'t bother with them and turned his feet to another direction. He soon meets with the one he wanted to meet.
"Captain Fan Ying, you have to choose whether to follow your family in City of Long Han, or followed us."
The young man looks with determination. "I will follow you, general."
"Even if you have to face your family soldiers?"
Fan Ying hesitates then nod. "Yes."
"You\'re dismissed. Pack your things, we will go tomorrow."
"Yes!"
