Chapter 169: Easing the Rage
169 Easing the Rage
The owner of the soft voice is a little girl wearing a simple dress. Her hair is still tidy, but her clothes seem a bit disheveled. She looks like she had just been running with the beads of sweats on her forehead. She was wearing a veil, but with her petite body and white skin, it didn't diminish the beauty she possessed.
"Young Miss," Yasha lips trembled. If his Miss is alive, who is that person from before?
"Yasha, let the governor do the case," Jun Hua said in a soft and trembling voice.
Yasha lets Lan Ping go and retreat to Jun Hua side in a flash. Lan Ping hurriedly stands up and glared at the three of them, but the people from investigation forces had come to take him away. They also take Lan Gao Ya who's still crying on the side.
Soujin looks towards the girl who comes. His heart ached terribly, he wants to ease her, but he doesn't know what he should do. In the end, he could only stand helplessly and avoided her gaze.
Yan didn't even dare to look at Jun Hua direction. He doesn't want to see the girl sadness on losing her brother. Not even her brother remains are here because of several people from other place stealing it.
"Big brother is not dead," Jun Hua said with trembling voice. Seeing the troubled expression on the usually aloof general, her heart suddenly felt pain. However, she knew that she no longer had any chance to tell him the truth. She is the one who had chosen this path, so she had to finish it no matter what.
Soujin opened his mouth with heavy feeling. "Jun Min is dead, he's burned alive."
"No… he's not," Jun Hua didn't stay there any longer. She can't bear to see her friends looking so troubled like that, especially because she knows that this is her plot.
She turned around and runs away with Yasha following behind her. The location of this place is not far from Jun family, so it doesn't take long for them to arrive at the house.
Soujin also didn't stay on the scene any longer. He didn't dare to see the girl anymore.
"Yan, I will return back, you should take care of the rest."
"Soujin," Yan nodded. The feeling of loss is heavier on Soujin who had ever experiencing life and death situation with Jun Min. He only heard a part of it, but he knows that Jun Min Can be said to have saved Soujin's life once. Besides, the fight they had together will not disappear just because of the young man death.
Looking at the burnt building, Yan expression turned even more solemn.
"Shu, all of things that related to Lan family had to be destroyed. And terminate the business we had with them."
"Yes."
Shu knows that his master is already angry. As Young Noble Han never sided with anyone, he would do business with a lot of people. If at this time, the business stopped, the funding for Lan family is finished and they won't be able to support that much soldiers anymore. This move is the same as cutting off the route for Lan family.
Only after this instruction did Yan feels a bit better. He laughed bitterly. The memories he had with that boy is mostly him getting beaten up, but still, he doesn't want the other party to die. This parting is really sad.
Arriving back to the Jun family residence, Jun Hua hurriedly ordered the servants to prepare for a carriage. Her heart feels heavy when she remembers the expression on Soujin and Yan's face previous. However, she had to harden her heart and finish what she had started.
She turned towards Yasha.
"You shouldn't have appeared."
"This subordinate is wrong. Miss should punish me," Yasha hurriedly knelt down. He had disobeyed the order by appearing today. But, he really cannot contain his rage upon seeing the Miss he served for years suddenly died. He just can't bear losing her.
Jun Hua nodded. "Just take 20 beatings later. For now, you and Yamin go to the Lan family residence and fetch my grandfather. I'm going there by carriage."
Yasha nodded his head obediently. 20 beatings are nothing for him. He knows that Jun Hua is not truly mad, so he secretly sighed in relief inside his heart.
"Yes Miss."
Jun Hua rubbed her forehead. This scenario is a bit further than what she planned in the first place. Still, no matter what, she needs to finish what she had started.
"Xia, hurry up."
"Yes Miss."
…
Lan Family Residence
"Lan Teng! You old dog! Come out right now!" Jun Zhenxian barged into Lan family residence and shouted with rage.
Lan Teng had heard about what happened and his face is flushed with anger. He would never expect that his own son with his niece would plot something like this. This is truly a heavy news for him.
When he heard Jun Zhenxian shouting from outside, he knows that he cannot run away anymore. That man is going to ask for reason and all. But what can he do? Should he send Lan Pan to deal with him and possibly getting into fight?
His eyes wandered to the room at the side. If Lan Pan wants to fight with Jun Zhenxian, he would already come out now. Even as that troublesome son father, Lan Teng didn't have full control of the boy's conduct. He's truly troublesome.
Lan Teng strengthens his resolve to go out by himself. He looks towards the angry Jun Zhenxian in the courtyard. Looking at that old man reminding him of his youth when he clashes with the veteran general countless times in the battlefield.
"Even if I told you that I know nothing, you will still attack me."
"They are your family," Jun Zhenxian argued.
"True enough," Lan Teng take out his sword and stand before Jun Zhenxian. The old man also took out his sword and they clashed. The sound of swords clashing filled the courtyard, making the servants hard to breath.
Despite their age is no longer young, their skill is still terrifying. The strength Lan Teng put on his sword is more than what ordinary people could do. Jun Zhenxian is once hailed as great general because of his monstrous strength. The clash of these two people would not end peacefully.
"Young Master, shouldn't you go and help?"
Lan Pan stared down with a sneer. "Why should I help? That old man is looking for trouble himself. I don't want to get involved."
With that, Lan Pan didn't bother to look at the fight and go to his bed. He lied down and closed his eyes, ignoring the ruckus on the outside. He is not a filial son and he doesn't have any feeling towards Lat Teng. After all, that old man didn't raise him as his son but as a weapon.
Lan Teng is not as strong as when he's youth anymore. When he tried to block the attack from Jun Zhenxian, the sword broke, making the sword from Jun Zhenxian to strike on to his body thus wounding him badly.He got pounced backwards and slammed the wall.
Lan Teng coughed up and blood comes out. He looks towards his hand. It has been cut from the shoulder by Jun Zhenxian. On the other hand, the last strike just now had crushed the bone on his right foot. It will be a miracle if he could recover from this.
"Don't you have enough, Jun Zhenxian?" Lan Teng said weakly.
Jun Zhenxian eyes are still filled with rage. He wants to strike again, but a servant coming from behind had stopped him and said something to his ears. He stopped in his tracks.
"This is enough. But if the emperor didn't punish them, I will come to take your life," Jun Zhenxian said before leaving.
Lan Teng sighed and passed out. The servants are all running here and there in a flurry.
