322 Jun Hua Min
The battle on Yan's side was a hard-fought victory. Because Ye Jiu was away to fight with Jun Hua's soldiers, the rest of the soldiers here were mostly the ordinary soldiers. With the subpar leading skill of Yan, they could overwhelm the other army easily.
"I wonder how the fight between Ye Jiu and Jun Hua going on," Yan said as he leaned back on the chair. The fight was tiring, but he was still relatively fine because Shu kept on protecting him on the battlefield.
Ming Hui smiled slightly, "I'm sure that Jun Hua has a complete victory."
Yan looked towards Ming Hui with disbelief, "That lass? You must be kidding me. Even Soujin is not a match against Ye Jiu, what can she do except delaying him?"
"…You agree to the strategy without believing in her?"
"Well, yeah. It's not like I have a better idea," Yan scratched his head. Although he did think that the mission was dangerous, he knew that Jun Hua would not die that quickly. With the talented soldiers under her, they would surely protect her. Even if she couldn't win, she could escape from the battlefield easily.
Ming Hui looked towards his brother with a sigh. He couldn't believe that he took his brother words for granted like that. He secretly reminded himself to never take Yan into a strategy meeting anymore or he might not be able to control himself from not punching the other party. If he truly punched him, it would be a crime, so he didn't want to do that.
'He shouldn't be the one becoming the emperor… I will just ask Jun Hua later to punch him on my behalf. At least we can say that he's bothering her.'
Unaware of Ming Hui thought, Yan said, "By the way, how is Soujin condition? He hadn't waked up yet?"
"Not yet, the wound is healing fast, but he's still in a dream," Ming Hui answered. He hoped that Soujin could wake up soon, so he could aid Jun Hua on the battle. However, with the wound Soujin sustained, it would take some time before he could return to the battlefield once again.
"I also want to sleep," Yan sighed.
Ming Hui shrugged. It has been a few days since Soujin came back riddled in countless deep wounds and fainted. Although the condition had stabilized, Soujin still didn't wake up. He really wished that Soujin could wake up soon and replaced Yan on the battlefield. This brother of him was a complete eyesore on the battlefield.
"Lou, has your wound healed?" Ming Hui looked to the side.
Lou nodded his head. He was still feeling ashamed that Soujin, his master, was the one riddled in wounds more than him. However, he knew that Soujin would never blame him for that incident because the two of them never thought that they would be trapped back.
"When will Soujin wake up?" he asked.
"It should be today," Ming Hui answered. Given that the light wound had mostly healed and the rest were the deep wound, Soujin's condition has improved, so he should be awake any time soon.
BANG!
When Ming Hui finished saying that, they could hear a loud sound coming from Soujin tent. In a matter of seconds, the three of them already arrived at the tent. Seeing that Soujin already woke up and forced himself to sit down, Ming Hui hurriedly came inside.
"You mustn't wake up yet, General!"
"Ming Hui, I have to return to the battlefield," Soujin said with a strong tone. When he came to, he found himself inside the tent. Without him, the battle would end in their loss, so he has to return.
"No worry, we won the last few battles here," Yan shrugged.
Seeing Soujin's sharp eyes directed towards him, Yan shut his mouth for good. There was no benefit in making the wounded beast angry. Should he recover, Yan would be the one to suffer.
Ming Hui sighed and shoved him a letter, "Jun Hua is the one leading the battlefield using the dividing strategy. With her luring Ye Jiu away, we can stand on our own in this part, so you don't have to worry."
"Jun Hua is….?" Soujin wanted to wake up even more. He wouldn't be able to bear if something were to happen to Jun Hua.
Ming Hui pushed Soujin hand that held the letter. "Read the letter first before deciding to move. Jun Hua asked me to tell you that you have to read the letter before anything else the moment you wake up."
Soujin's eyes narrowed. He could see that Ming Hui was using his entire power to hold him down because the power of a doctor cannot match a general. It was only because he was wounded that Ming Hui could still manage with holding him here.
Seeing that the other party was determined not to let him went away without reading the letter, he relaxed his muscle and returned to a sitting position on the bed. Although his heart was still incredibly nervous, he didn't have any other choice but to listen.
Ripping the envelope, he read the letter. The letter was short, there were only several sentences, but Soujin body froze after he read it and his stunned expression was quite apparent.
Seeing his reaction, the three people inside the room were dumbfounded. Actually, Shu wanted to come inside too because Yan was there, but he couldn't find the right time to charge in, so he was waiting outside.
What was inside the letter that makes the cold and calm Soujin be that flustered? Yan looked towards the other two, but their expression was not any better than him. Right now, he was awfully curious as to what was inside the letter.
Ming Hui shocked face didn't last long because he could guess what was inside the letter. So the little lass finally told him the truth about her identity. If there was anything that could make Soujin lose his calm, that would be anything related to Jun Hua and his family. He was sure that there must be something that happened with him and Jun Min before that crossed the boundary of 'only friend' should Jun Min was a girl.
Soujin regained his composure as he looked towards the three of them. Seeing Ming Hui's smile, he frowned.
"Yan, Lou, you two get out."
"Sure," the two of them dashed out from the tent without any delay.
Soujin looked towards Ming Hui, "When did you found out?"
"On our campaign towards Kai Kingdom, didn't I tell you that I meet with the assassin who kills the emperor and the prince?" Ming Hui smile slightly, "That was Jun Hua."
"I see…" Soujin's eyes didn't leave the letter as he sighed. His famous name as a great general was truly a joke in front of that girl.
"What is inside the letter?"
"You can see for yourself."
Taking the paper, Ming Hui read the content of the short letter before laughing out loud. It was extremely simple that he couldn't believe what he read.
'Soujin, I'm sorry. Please rest assured and rest properly, I will bring the news of victory the moment I return.
Jun Hua Min'
