<h4>162 Invitation for a Banque</h4>
Jun Family Residence
Jun Hua walks to the hall, then to her grandfather ce. She noticed that the papers which usually stack up high in this ce had gone. Does her grandfather finish looking at them all?
"He throws most of them out, Miss," Xia exined when she saw her Miss expression. Shees hurriedly after hearing that her Miss had returned.
"Why?"
"He said that you would be taken by that Nanglong kid…" Xia imitated how Jun Zhenxian acted that time and Jun Hua watch with nk expression.
She sighed. Why does her grandfather think that way? She didn''t think of Soujin in that way, right? Jun Hua is not really sure about her feeling. All she knows is that she sees Soujin as her best friend. But, does she see him more than that?
Jun Hua doesn''t want to think about it anymore. "Is there any news?"
"The empress is holding a banquet and she wished that everydy in the capital could attend it."
The empress? Jun Hua doesn''t have many impressions of this woman. She only remembers seeing the empress on the imperial party before, but she didn''t pay any special attention to this woman. In any case, she still has some memories about thisdy. She was a dignified olddy, who had noble bearing.
Aside from that, she should be someone capable. Despite not having any children, she could hold onto the position as the emperor wife until now. This party sounds interesting, there should be nothing wrong with her attending.
"When will she hold it?"
"In three days."
"I see, you will go with me there, Xia."
"Yes Miss."
Jun Hua returned back to her room and tidied up her belongings. She looks towards the map on her table, which was the strategic map she had made upon reaching Mountain Kingdom. Picking it up, she studied it once more. The n needs to bepleted soon.
Jun Zhenxianes back not long after that, he looks like he has just been fighting.
"Grandpa, what are you doing to make yourself in that state?" Jun Hua doesn''t think that her grandfather would pick up any random people just to fight, but it seems there is someone in particr that he fights. This old man keeps on getting trouble.
Jun Zhenxianughed. "I was looking for that Nanglong Souka and give him a good beating. Now, I feel more refreshed."
Jun Hua doesn''t know what to reply. Her grandfather, despite his old age, is a genuine general whose name once resounds in the wholend. On the other hand, Nanglong Souka is merely an official whose job is to stay in the pce and manages the affair there. No matter which angles she looks at, that was not a fair battle!
"Grandpa, stop looking for trouble…"
"Like I would, that Nanglong kid dare to take my granddaughter, of course I need to give them some lesson."
Jun Hua mouth twitched. "It''s not like that…"
"What is not?"
The grandfather and granddaughter duo soon found themselves in a heated duel of words. The servants are all lowered their head while thinking in their heart, just how much their old master love to debate? He debated almost every day with Nanglong Souka and now he asked his own granddaughter to debate. What an amazing love of debate!
Jun Hua manages to resolve the matter after a long talk before she returned to her room. The day passed quickly and soon it''s time for the banquet from the pce.
She picks a good dress, but a simple one to not let them notice her. Though after looking at mirror, she found out that it''s useless, her feature is simply too good to tone it down. The only way to tone it a bit is by using the veil. Still, her body feature is too outstanding, especially after she had started her puberty.
After a while, she didn''t bother thinking about it anymore as she picks a few essories to wear. She never uses too much since she felt ufortable.
"Grandpa, Hua''er is going to the pce."
Jun Zhenxian nodded. "Be wary of the empress. She''s not an ordinary girl."
"Neither do I."
Looking at his granddaughter, Jun Zhenxian smiled. Yes, she is not an ordinary girl too. She just looks ordinary from the outside, but on the inside she is not. He hopes that the empress is not going to target her.
After she had arrived at the pce, Jun Hua walked to the hall where a lot of girls already there. It seems that they are all dressed up so carefully before got in here. She doesn''t know any of them. After all, Lan Gao Ya didn''te to this ce and she didn''t have any chance to meet with that cunningdy again. The other girls she used to know are all already gotten married except Fan Lanying who was away from the capital at the moment.
When the empress arrived, Jun Hua greeted her alongside the group ofdies.
Looking at the empress from closer distance, she noticed that this female is really amazing. She has air of authority around her and despite being a woman, she doesn''t lose out from men in terms of disposition. Jun Hua now knows why this woman is respected by the emperor and didn''t lose out from the concubines.
Jun Hua lowered her eyes. She feels that it''s not fair for this woman to have that kind of man. She wasted her youth for that person who didn''t worthy of it even one bit. But, it was never her ce to talk about it.
