391 Journey
"Be careful on your journey," Ming Yan said to Nanglong Soujin when the other party was about to go. On his side, Shu was standing as usual while Jun Zhenxian just looked at the other party with a wry expression.
Nanglong Soujin nodded his head. "Just stay here and make sure that you didn't ss up the kingdom by the ti I go back."
"No need to worry," Ming Yan laughed. "There is simply no way this esteed emperor would possibly ss up the entire kingdom."
'if it's you, you can do it,' Shu thought in his mind as he hardened his resolve to make sure the emperor worked really hard on his work.
Soujin didn't comnt at Yan's remark and swiftly got into the carriage. Princess Xiao ng and Tang Xuan were on different carriages, and they too have been prepared to return. Before long, the carriages moved towards the Gu Yue Kingdom.
Ming Yan watched as the carriages left the city. "Ming Hui truly took a long ti just to subdue the rebel. With his skill, there is no way it would end this long."
"Do you want that young man to replace Soujin?" Jun Zhenxian asked with a strange look. Because Nanglong Souka was busy to finish his work, he asked his friend-enemies to send his grandson off. Although Jun Zhenxian was unwilling, he didn't have any choice since he couldn't et with his granddaughter.
"It would be better for Soujin to stay in the capital, right?" Ming Yan asked with a perplexed tone. No matter how annoying Soujin would be to him, he knew the other party was an excellent martial artist. If he were to stay in the capital, this place would surely be safer.
"There's already Jun Hua here," Jun Zhenxian rolled his eyes.
Ming Yan shook his head, "If I were to ask that little lady to work again, Soujin would surely beat up to death the mont he returns."
Jun Zhenxian had to admit that it was correct. Soujin would surely be unwilling to see Jun Hua worked again now that she had already beco a mother. Not that he could force her to rest if she was the one who wanted to work, though.
"By the way, why did that general bring Lin Hong with him?"
From all the officials available in the capital, there shouldn't be any need to specifically choose Lin Hong to go towards Gu Yue Kingdom. After all, Lin Hong was a rather inexperienced official and they wouldn't benefit much from him going to that kingdom.
"He didn't tell ," Ming Yan shrugged, "Let it be. Ling Hong is a good official, and I think this experience would allow him to grow better."
Jun Zhenxian looked towards Yan for a few seconds before he shook his head. He should have known better than anyone to not ask Yan about these kinds of things. There was simply no way the other party could know with his slightly lower IQ.
There was simply no way soone like Soujin would choose Lin Hong for such a trivial reason. There must be another reason why the other party chose to bring Lin Hong, but they didn't know about it. Really, he felt that these youngsters truly cannot stay in one place and allow him to not worry about them.
"By the way, General Jun Zhenxian, Jun Qing sent a ssage saying that he had already prepared a good place for you to spend your old ti. You can return anyti you want."
Jun Zhenxian nodded his head. He already bid his farewell to Jun Hua before she gave birth and after getting the chance to see the little prince once, he felt that it was enough. It was already the ti for him to tone down and rest for a long ti. His tired body wouldn't be able to hold on if he dared to do anything reckless again.
"Emperor Yan," he called the other party politely for the first ti. "Tell that shaless pri minister that I might lose my bet, so he will need to fulfill his promise soon."
Ming Yan frowned. Do you think I'm a ssenger? Yet, he still nodded to accept the other party request. After bidding a farewell, Jun Zhenxian prepared himself for a rather long journey to the Mountain Kingdom.
"Shu, how's the officials conduct?" Yan inquired as he walked.
"They have beco more obedient," Shu answered amiably, "So of them still try to rise through the ranks quicker with inappropriate ways, but I have handled them."
"That's good," Ming Yan nodded satisfied. He walked straight to the pri minister's workroom. He looked at the mountain of paper inside the room, wondering whether he made a mistake in assigning work since this amount of work has far surpassed what he originally thought.
"Emperor," Nanglong Souka greeted rather informally. Since they were alone, he didn't feel any need to greet the other party too formal.
"Pri Minister, it seed you have quite a lot of work," Ming Yan comnted.
Nanglong Souka's face turned sour. And whose fault it was that I have a lot of work? He didn't say anything anymore as he put the docunt down.
"Is there any special need for your esteed self to co here?"
Ming Yan nodded, "I want to inform you that your best friend will return to the Mountain Kingdom soon." Nanglong Souka eyes rolled down. There shouldn't be any need for you to co personally just for that, right?
"And he said that he might lose his bet, so he wanted you to fulfill your promise."
That bet? Nanglong Souka's face darkened, but he cannot really bla the other party for that. He nodded towards the emperor, "Thank you very much for relaying the information."
Ming Yan nodded, "Do you mind telling the content of the bet?"
Nanglong Souka shook his head, "There is no need for you to know the content of what we, the shaless old n, had."
It was only at this ti this old man admitted that he and that person were indeed shaless. Yan shook his head. They were truly annoying.
"I won't disturb you from doing your job anymore."
Nanglong Souka waited until Ming Yan disappeared from that place before he leaned back on his chair. It was not like he didn't want to tell the other party about the content of their bet, he just didn't want to divulge another one of their shaless bet. After all, they were possibly the only two people in this kingdom who would want to bet sothing like that.
"That shaless old man is truly annoying," Nanglong Souka sighed. Well, it was not like if one of them lost they needed to pay a lot of money, it was just annoying because he needed to visit the other party's grave, which would surely be located at that far place. Not to ntion the fact that the emperor would give him loads of work should he leave for such a long ti.
Nanglong Souka returned his gaze back to his work. There was no need to think about such things. It was better for him to finish his work as fast as possible.
