Flowers Bloom from Battlefield-Chapter 334: Long Kingdom
334 Long Kingdom
After finishing the entire matter, they went towards the Long Han city to do the coronation of Yan. Because this grand event was also the mark of unification, the Emperor of Yuan Kingdom and the Emperor of Mountain Kingdom came to the city too. The preparation alone took months to finish.
"Ming Hui didn't come to help out?" Yan peered from the paper on his hand.
Soujin shook his head, "He's busy because of his marriage. They plan to hold it a month after the coronation."
"That's pretty quick," Yan commented.
"He's already impatient enough as he is," Jun Hua giggled. "After all, he had reached 20 a few months ago."
Yan nods his head, "Come to think about it, you're almost 18, right? When will you hold your marriage?"
Jun Hua shrugged, "I'm not the one to decide."
Seeing the nonchalant attitude of Jun Hua, Yan wanted to tease her more. But, seeing that Soujin was glaring at him, he chose to shut his mouth for good.
"A few days after Ming Hui," Soujin opened his mouth, "That's the plan."
Jun Hua glared at Soujin because he didn't tell her anything about it before. It was quite understandable though, because she had already passed the legal age for marriage more than two years ago. Since the two of them have long passed the age, Soujin would surely want to hold the ceremony quicker.
"… I thought you hadn't proposed yet."
'He hadn't,' Jun Hua answered telepathically. Obviously, Yan didn't know that as Soujin didn't answer him because they were still waiting for the people from Mountain Kingdom and Yuan Kingdom to come for the ceremony in the next few days.
"Have you thought about the name of the kingdom?" Soujin changed the question.
"Yes, I want to use Long," Yan smiled, "That's a good name isn't it?"
"Up to you," Soujin didn't really care about the name for the kingdom. What he knew was that he would protect the kingdom and maintained the peace.
After discussing for some time, they agreed for the name to be Long Kingdom. After the name was finished, they talked about the other matters such as how to divide the area under their government, the economic, and so on.
After a few days, the people from the Mountain Kingdom arrived first. Among them, Jun Qing was present because he was the emperor and the rest were mostly the ministers.
"Uncle, you have come," Jun Hua smiled widely at her uncle's arrival.
Jun Qing sighed, "You haven't grown yet, little girl. Where is the new emperor?"
For him, Jun Hua would forever be a little girl that he needed to care about. Even if she was already an adult by law, he wanted to dote her even more now.
"Yan is inside the room," Jun Hua pointed to the room nearby, "Did grandpa didn't come? What about Kuina?"
"Father is busy because of some matter while Kuina cannot come in her condition," Jun Qing coughed with a red face. 𝙛𝔯𝒆e𝔀e𝗯𝓷𝗼𝘃e𝚕.𝒄𝗼𝗺
Jun Hua smiled widely at her uncle's answer, "Congratulation uncle!"
"Thank you. What about you, you will be 18 soon, right?" Jun Qing caressed her hair.
"That… is not something I decide," Jun Hua led her uncle to the hall. Inside the big hall, there were only Soujin and Yan busy doing the paperwork with Lou and Shu helping them diligently.
Soujin's eyes focused on the man beside Jun Hua until Jun Hua introduced him to them.
"This is my uncle, also the current emperor of Mountain Kingdom, Jun Qing," Jun Hua said, "And uncle, this is General Soujin and Prince Yan."
Jun Qing nodded his head. He had heard about the ability of Soujin and Yan, especially in the battle. Their name resounded to the entire land and many people knew their power. However, he was stunned when Soujin suddenly stood and walked to him.
"Emperor Jun Qing, there is something I want to talk with you."
"Here?" Jun Qing asked.
"Please follow me," Soujin walked to the side room with Jun Qing followed after him. Inside the hall, Yan stared suspiciously.
"What does he want to talk about?"
Jun Hua has her guess, but she would not say it to this man.
Inside the room, Soujin said to Jun Qing, "I wish for your niece's hand in marriage."
Jun Qing was stunned by the sudden proclamation from Soujin. However, he already knew about this matter since Jun Hua was pretty obvious in her act, especially when mentioning Soujin's name. Besides, his father already warned him beforehand about this.
"I see," Jun Qing nods his head, "When do you plan to marry her?"
"If it's possible, next month," Soujin answered.
That was pretty quick. However, Jun Qing didn't find it hard to accept because he knew that his niece also willing. Even without asking, he already knew the answer.
"I understand, but you must not hurt her, General Soujin, for I will not let you off if you do."
Soujin nodded his head, "I won't hurt her."
After talking for some time, they reached the agreement and walked back to the main hall. Inside the hall, they discussed the condition of Mountain Kingdom after the unification and decided to let Jun Qing become the leader of that territory. In name, he would be under Yan, but in fact, he could lead the people quite freely.
"As for the Yuan Kingdom, I will put General Jun Zhenxian and Ming Hui in charge of the place with Fan Lanying as the main force. The same with Mountain Kingdom, they will be part of Long Kingdom, but with certain freedom."
Jun Qing nodded his head. He was not that ambitious person and taking care of the current area was already a big job for him, so he wouldn't ask for a lot. Besides, it was not like his power was taken away completely. And the Yuan Kingdom, which would change its name later, would become a port focused on trading, so his father was indeed more suitable.
"The rest of the area is a bit tricky," Yan already assigned Soujin's grandfather to take care of the Ming Kingdom part. For the Pan Kingdom, however, he could only ask the local of that area to take care of the matter first. On the other hand, the previous Kai Kingdom would be under him directly since Long Han city was nearer them.
"Soujin, where do you want your post located?"
Soujin stared at the map for a moment before pointing at the northeast part, "For the time being, I will stay here until the situation more or less settles down." Moving his finger, "After that, I need to take care of the matter over here."
Seeing the area Soujin pointed at, Yan nodded his head, "I got it."
After the discussion was finished, they only needed to prepare for the coronation ceremony. After Yuan Kingdom emperor came, he gladly accepted the term.
The coronation ceremony was made to be really grand and wonderful. Aside from Ming Yan being appointed as the emperor, Nanglong Soujin, Ming Hui, Ming Xiao, Jun Qing, and the previous emperor of Yuan Kingdom were all titled as prince. As for Jun Hua, she was still the princess. That was also the start of the new kingdom called Long Kingdom.
