Flowers Bloom from Battlefield

Mountain Kingdom Capital

Jun Hua stared at Kuina with a bewildered look. ”Can you please not do something so suddenly like that?”

Kuina smiled. She may be already the empress right now, but she didn’t want to do any of the protocol towards the girl before her. Smiling happily, she pointed towards the hall.

”Just beat them all.”

This empress… Jun Hua had no plans of being the strategist of Mountain Kingdom before this. Now that Kuina had forced the position into her head, she had no choice but to accept. Even if she had some skill, she didn’t really have any interest with the real position of a strategist. Leading her own soldier was already more than enough.

Unfortunately, Kuina wanted her to have the official position. With her being the strategist for Mountain Kingdom, Kuina knew that the military power of Mountain Kingdom would rise. With that in mind, she chose to nominate the girl when the time was right.

”You still didn’t answer my question.”

”Should you ask about that? I’m sure that this position suits you well.”

Jun Hua didn’t have the same opinion with Kuina. When the riots happened this time, she didn’t actually take full control of the whole soldiers in Mountain Kingdom. She only handles the west part while the one bordered with Kai Kingdom was handled by her subordinates.

Despite her skill that was extraordinary, she was still a human with limited capabilities. There was no way she could do something like that and possibly knew everything. She only made the guess, and some of them missed a bit, though it was still within tolerance range.

With the urge from Kuina, Jun Hua walked towards the hall. The officials were all looking towards the little girl. She was wearing a veil, which makes them unable to look at her face, but around her there was an air of authority.

Jun Qing smiled upon seeing Jun Hua. ”Since the princess had come, you may start.”

”Princess Hua, please.”

Jun Hua secretly rolled her eyes at her uncle instruction. She would surely devise a plan to make her uncle tired again. After deciding that internally, she looked towards the board on the table. Her hand tapped the edge of the table with a calm expression.

”Please, sir.”

Jun Zhenxian watched the match from the side. Since they were unconvinced with her ability, they wanted to test her. The fight was between all of the military strategists of Mountain Kingdom against one person, Jun Hua. At first, he thought that it would be unfair, but upon careful examination, he no longer felt the same way.

While watching, General Tou took his cup of wine and offered it towards Jun Zhenxian.

”For your granddaughter to have her ability acknowledge by the world,” he said with smile.

Jun Zhenxian shook his head. ”I don’t think it will be that easy.”

General Tou was startled. Has he spoken mistakenly? He didn’t think that there was anything wrong with the way he told him to toast.

”She will gain recognition among the officials, but how the world sees her is uncertain.”

Jun Hua was famous for her uselessness. If she suddenly got such an important position who usually occupied by Jun Zhenxian, who would believe it? They might think that she can only get that position because of her status as the princess and the niece of the current emperor.

Among them, only those who were inside this room would know the real skill of that little girl. She was not someone that cannot do anything, it was the opposite, she can do too much: Leading the war, making strategy, fighting, and even planning ahead. If one were to say something she cannot do, then it would be playing zither well and something similar.

”If only she was born as a man,” General Tou said slowly.

If Jun Hua was not a girl, there would be no need to hide her identity for so long and let the people only see her as someone who cannot do anything. They said she was only latching into other people thighs while in truth, it was herself who did everything. What an irony.

Jun Zhenxian didn’t say much. For him, it didn’t matter whether Jun Hua was a girl or boy. All he cared about was the fact that she was his granddaughter who was so excellent in military. As the head of military family, he had seen the moment when Jun family was at the peak. Now that they have declined, what he hoped the most was a person in their family with great military capability.

But, General Tou reminded him of another thing. With Jun Hua being a girl, and she had decided to cast away her identity as the boy, she would surely chose to live as an ordinary princess when everything ended. And at that time, he wanted her to be happy.

While the two of them talked, the battle inside the hall came into a close with Jun Hua won by overwhelming difference. If one should say, she completely butchered the strategist of Mountain Kingdom.

”Can you not be so ruthless? This is only simulation,” Jun Qing sighed.

Jun Hua smirked. ”I don’t think there will be another way to do this better. The way I did it is already well enough.”

The officials wanted to vomit blood upon hearing the word of Jun Hua. Well enough? You have crushed all of us to the point of no return. How can you say that this was only at that level?

With that battle, Jun Hua ability was recognized by the officials and no one voiced out any complain anymore.

”With this, I conferred Jun Hua to be the military strategist of Mountain Kingdom.”

Jun Hua smiled slightly. It seemed, the time for her to reform the military of this kingdom army had come. She had seen them and they were fairly weaker compared with her soldiers. They would all need to be shaped up.

”You have the full control of the military,” Kuina added.

This declaration from Kuina showed how much trust she had towards Jun Hua. Jun Hua was surprised with the favor, but she knew that the princess indeed trusted her and she shouldn’t misuse this chance.

Jun Hua bowed. ”This subject-niece will do her best to build a powerful army.”

With that, the training for the Mountain Kingdom army was rewritten. Afterwards, the soldiers were calling Jun Hua the Queen of Hell trainer, though only in secret since they don’t want to be subjected into an even harsher training.
