222 Journey 2

Madam Qin was stunned to hear Yan\'s answer. The other party has just returned from his trip not long ago and now he wanted to go again?

"You will be going away again?" she asked with worried tone.

Yan nodded his head slightly. "Soujin wants to do something away from here, so I will come with him and do my business as Young Noble Han."

Madam Qin nodded in understanding. "Where will you go this time?"

"Yuan Kingdom."

"That\'s really far," Yuan Kingdom location was really far from their territory. At least, a week journey would be required to reach that place if they were hurried.

"I won\'t take a long time there," Yan promised.

Madam Qin nodded her head. "I know you must be busy, but you have to take care of yourself during your time there."

"I will."

"By the way, you are going to go only with Soujin?"

Yan pondered. "It\'s more likely to be so, but there must be his guard around. I need to prepare myself first, Mother. Please excuse me."

Madam Qin watched as Yan walked to his room. She didn\'t move from her place until Yan disappeared from her sight.

Nanglong Family Residence

After mulling for some time, Soujin decide to look for his mother. He quickly found the other party as his mother was making an embroidery at the living room.

"Mother, are you busy?"

Qin Shie raised her head. "What is it Soujin?"

Soujin took a seat near her. "I need to make a long trip, and it might take some time before I can return here."

"Where are you going?"

"Yuan Kingdom," Soujin answered.

"What are you doing at that kingdom, you brat?" Nanglong Souka chided. He was staying on the next room when Soujin came in. He thought that the boy only wanted to talk some light things, but that brat just started to talk about going for a long time.

He was truly a troublesome general to leave the territory during the war.

Soujin looked up. "I need to find Prince Tang Xuan. There is something I want to know."

Nanglong Souka face turned serious. Talking about Yuan Kingdom made him remembered the trip he once had to negotiate with them. The emperor of Yuan Kingdom would be willing to give up his throne if Ming Kingdom wished for unification. That kind of attitude puzzles Nanglong Souka until now.

Knowing Yuan Kingdom have one prince, it made no sense that the emperor would gladly give the whole country for them. Since Nanglong Souka didn\'t have that much loyalty towards this emperor, he didn\'t answer the offer.

He didn\'t loyal towards the emperor, he loyal towards his kingdom.

Ever since he lost his son in the hand of the emperor, he never has any feeling of loyalty towards him anymore. All talk about maintaining the peace and doing his job was mainly to keep the Ming Kingdom intact. He didn\'t wish for anything big, only the change of the emperor.

Returning to the topic, Nanglong Souka shook his head. "You might die if you go there."

Soujin frowned. Why something like that would happen?

"The emperor of Yuan Kingdom is not in good terms with his son. When I come there, he once offered to me to give the entire land of Yuan Kingdom under Ming Kingdom should Ming Kingdom wish for unification," Nanglong Souka said calmly. His usual joking side had disappeared completely.

Soujin nodded his head in understanding. What kind of person didn\'t want his son to succeed him? There must be something behind it that he didn\'t know. Something that the emperor hidden so well that not a single kingdom around it know.

"That\'s more of the reason why I should go there," Soujin answered.

"You brat! Stop betting with your life," Nanglong Souka chided.

"I\'m not betting with my life. I know that I will return safely."

Hearing the confident answer from Nanglong Soujin, Nanglong Souka truly wondered how in the world he produced such an offspring. One that didn\'t seem to know fear and seemed to always have plan to back up his word.

"You idiot! You didn\'t even know what you will face in that kingdom!"

"I still have some knowledge beforehand. I already collect a lot of information from all over the area to prepare for this war," Soujin remarked.

Nanglong Souka inhaled sharply. This brat was truly annoying. He didn\'t even tell his own grandfather about the force of Nanglong Family that the other party has been using all this year. Still, he didn\'t want the other party to dive straight into trouble in Yuan Kingdom.

"Can\'t you be normal for once?"

"I\'m normal."

That\'s normal? Nanglong Souka wished for nothing other than beating his own grandson right now. If that was categorized as normal, he would not feel like this when facing the other party.

Qin Shie held Nanglong Souka shoulder while shaking her head. She knew very well what Soujin personality was. Once that boy had decided on something, he won\'t back down.

Nanglong Souka looked annoyed. This brat is still like that, when will he listen to his grandfather for once?

"Mother, I will be going with Yan tomorrow," Soujin continued.

"You have to take care of yourself. Don\'t get hurt."

"Yes Mother. I understand," Soujin said reassuringly. He stood up from the chair. "I need to prepare myself for the journey. Please take care of yourself, Mother."

Watching Soujin back, Qin Shie eyes turned red. She too also wished for her son to stay safe and not going everywhere. As a mother, she wanted her son to stay safe, but as a person of this era, she knew that her son was of an importance to end this era.

Nanglong Souka leaned back. "If you have something to say, you should just say it to him. He listens to you more than me."

It was a fact that he couldn\'t refuted no matter what. Because of his decision in the past, Soujin never listened to him much anymore. Although he did miss his cute grandson, he already accepted that fact.

Qin Shie looked towards her father-in-law. "Even if I say something to him, would he change his decision?I don\'t want to be a nagging mother that didn\'t know how to face her own son. He\'s already an adult. If I say that I\'m worried about him, he would just feel troubled."

Nanglong Souka also knew about Soujin stubborn attitude that once he has decided on something, it would be hard to change it. He sighed. Qin Shie was right, as a mother she truly knew her son better.

"I just hope that brat will be alright. He keeps on creating trouble," Nanglong Souka remarked.

Qin Shie shook her head and turned to her embroidery again, trying to concentrate to finish her work.
