Chapter 395: They Still Target Me
395 They Still Target Me
Jun Hua had heard the news of Nanglong Soujin's arrival in the Yuan Kingdom. Her people sent the news as fast as they could to her per her instruction. She picked up a pen and paper as soon as she received the news.
"Xia, give this to Mother."
"Yes Miss," Xia received the letter and quickly walked away.
Jun Hua stayed on her place for a few seconds before moving her feet towards her son's room. She smiled when she saw her son and gently picked him up. The little boy blabbered a bit, but he stayed calm in his mother embrace.
"Xiao Yun, you stay in my room and locked the door."
"Princess?" Xiao Yun didn't understand her Miss instruction, but she quickly moved and got into her Miss room.
Jun Hua still held Nanglong Shou in her arm when she walked out from the room towards the training hall. Nanglong Shou watched her with his big eyes, but Jun Hua just smiled at the other party and gently blocked his vision by moving her closer in her embrace. She didn't want her son to see things like this when he was still so little.
"It's okay. You don't have to be afraid."
From behind her, she could feel an attack directed towards her. She moved her feet to the side with an agile movement and her right hand instantly unsheathe her sword and strike the other party. Seeing the black-clothed person behind her fell, she sighed to herself. There were so many assassins targeting her lately.
Well, if they think she had weakened just because she was giving birth not long ago, they were completely wrong.
Three more people came to the training hall. Jun Hua didn't initiate the attack. She just gently held her son and made sure that his eyes were covered with her clothes. Those assassins attacked her and she responded with effortless movement. In a matter of seconds, they have fallen to the ground.
It didn't take her too long to completely finish battling against them all. If they came when she was pregnant, she might not be able to fight that well, especially because she didn't want to upset her baby. But now that she has already recovered, they were only looking for trouble if they come here.
"Ah, sorry Shou'er," Jun Hua adjusted her hand after she finished. She sheathed her sword back to its place as she held her son firmer yet gentle. Seeing the completely clueless face of Nanglong Shou, she smiled gently. She truly didn't wish for the other party to see violence at such young age.
Planting a kiss to the boy's cheek, Nanglong Shou laughed at the gesture. He raised his hand slightly, and Jun Hua smiled when she saw it. He was truly really cute!
She walked back to the residence, "Xiao Yun clean up the mess."
"Yes Miss," Xiao Yun quickly came out from the room and started to order the servants to clean up the place.
"Yamin, you too clean up the mess at your place," Jun Hua was not the only one who fought. Yamin also fought some of them at the other side.
"Yes Miss."
She put Nanglong Shou to his bed and instructed the servants to guard the boy before return back to the training hall. One of the assassins was still alive since Jun Hua spared him.
"You better tell me who sends you," Jun Hua said calmly.
The assassin looked towards Jun Hua with a terrified expression. He was informed that many of the guards here have been sent to another place because of the rebels. Previously, Nanglong Soujin was still here, so they didn't move, but it seemed that he was not the only one they should be caution off.
It didn't take Jun Hua a long time to get the information she needed. The other party has planned this quite well. They didn't have many guards here since they needed a lot of manpower to completely subdue the rest of the cities. Previously Soujin almost didn't leave her at all because of her condition and only now he left because he knew she could protect herself.
"Not having many guards seemed like quite a trouble too," Jun Hua frowned.
Qin Shie arrived not long after that. She looked at the servants busy cleaning up with helplessness, "If Yan knows the assassins target you again, he might shake the entire court once again."
"He only did that once because Soujin told him to," Jun Hua shrugged, "Besides, these people couldn't even touch me, so there's no need for him to ransack the entire court again."
"Why did they keep targeting you?" Qin Shie asked. It didn't make sense that they would target her for no reason.
Jun Hua just smiled at that question. She pointed to the house behind her, "Mother, can you take care of Shou'er for a while? I need to go for a couple of days."
"I can take care of him if it's only a few days," Qin Shie did want to spend more time with her grandson, but she didn't have complete confidence that she could protect the boy as good as Jun Hua.
"I will send more people to protect you, Mother," Jun Hua reassured her when she saw the other party doubtful expression.
Qin Shie nodded her head, "Alright, Mother understood. But, where did you want to go?"
"I want to go to the Gu Yue Kingdom."
"…Did you want to meet with Soujin again?" it was only a month and you can't bear to separate with him?
"I want to give him a good beating for concealing the truth from me."
"…" Did you just tell a mother that you want to beat up her son?
Qin Shie stared at Jun Hua's face with bewilderment. Although Jun Hua face was plastered with a sincere smile, she knew that the other party was not really smiling. And that reason given to her face… there was simply no way it could be true.
From the interaction between the two of them, Jun Hua would never beat up Soujin no matter how annoying Soujin might be to her. Since she didn't want to tell the true reason to her, Qin Shie would not force her to say anything despite her feeling worry for the other party.
"Why would he conceal the truth from you?"
"Perhaps because he didn't want me to worry," Jun Hua shrugged. She didn't know about the detail too, so she will go to Gu Yue Kingdom to find out.
"Don't put yourself in danger too much, you have more people waiting for you now," Qin Shie warned.
Jun Hua nodded her head and smiled sweetly, "Don't worry Mother. I will return back as fast as I can."
Qin Shie watched as Jun Hua walked away. She wanted to stop the other party. She didn't want her to place herself in danger anymore, but it seemed the little lady was too active to tone down.
"My families are all troublesome people. Can't they just stay in one place and not make me worry?" Qin Shie shook her head. Since Jun Hua asked her to take care of her grandson, It was the time for her to see him, so she quickly walked to the little boy room.
