<h4>225 Unexpected Surprise</h4>
Jun Hua felt her mind nked for a moment. How did the other party guess it? She was sure that she didn''t show any loopholes and didn''t allow him to see through her. Was it because of the difference in their martial arts? With her head having so many unanswered questions, Jun Hua was really confused. Yet, she didn''t show any of them on the outside.
Smiling, she retorted. "Didn''t Prince Tang Xuan know that Jun Min is dead?"
"The corpse is fake," Prince Tang Xuan answered calmly. "Jun Min is someone who is highly proficient in martial arts and has high power. To be unable to escape from that room of fire is highly impossible. The corpse is in Pan Kingdom, but I got the chance to examine it once. The one who died is indeed a young man, but his height and part of the intact clothes didn''t suit with the information regarding Jun Min.
Of course, ordinary people wouldn''t realize this one fact. But I can notice the difference right away. Since Jun Min is still alive, you who have simr stature of a schr and high martial arts are likely Jun Min. Is my conclusion right?"
For Jun Min, this was truly a huge blunder. How can she expect there would be someone who noticed the difference right away? The numbers of young man criminals in the death row were few, and she could only pick someone who has quite simr stature with her.
The number of people who can notice the difference should be only a handful. What kind of man was this person before her to be able to notice the different so quickly? This prince was really interesting and rather scary at the same time.
"You''re right," Jun Hua admitted. "What do you want?"
Prince Tang Xuan smiled. "I want you to take over Yuan Kingdom."
Once again, Jun Hua mind nked. Was the person before her really a crown prince? How a prince could be so willing to give up their kingdom for other people? She looked towards Prince Tang Xuan with confusion. What was going on in Yuan Kingdom?
Prince Tang Xuan gave her a wry smile. "I''m not really a prince from Yuan Kingdom. I''m only here because of business, simr with you. Ie from beyond the river and I only have the time to stay here for a couple of weeks until the water goes down again and I can return.
The emperor didn''t have children, and the people around him are not really qualified for being an emperor. At first, he wanted me to seed, but I don''t want to stay here for a long time. Previously, he wanted to give it to Ming Kingdom, but upon knowing the truth about Jun family, we switched our target."
Jun Hua stared back deeply. "I guess, the attack towards Ming Kingdom is nned by you?"
Prince Tang Xuan nodded. He didn''t have any intention to hide it. After all, what he did is not one to be praised about, and the fact that he did want to meet with Jun family is the true reason.
"I know that Jun family had some animosity with Ming Kingdom, but he too has friends there. When I heard that the one who came is Prince Ming Xiao and his wife, Lin San, I remember that Lin San is your sister stepsister. Thus, I nned to kidnap them and lure you toe."
Jun Hua nodded. After this prince saying those things, she came to understand why the event was like that. That was probably the reason he only sent two small groups to chase after Ming Xiao and Lin San. Their target was not them, but her. They wanted her to see the martial arts they have to make here to this kingdom.
"But why did you leave Lin San in that head guard charge? Don''t you know what he''s going to do?"
"I know. In case she couldn''t fight back, I would appear to stop it. But, it''s unneeded. After they escaped, I wait for some time before dispatching some troops to chase after them."
Somehow Jun Hua truly wanted to congratte and at the same time beat up the man before her. What he did was truly well nned and even she cannot say that in terms of scheme, she could beat him. But in terms of martial arts, she was sure that she could beat him any time she wanted despite both of them hadn''t fight using their real ability.
Although that particr part was disturbing her, she didn''t really take it to heart. The incident had made Ming Xiao and Lin San grew closer, so in a way it was not really a problem. Besides, if he truly nned to interrupt in case Lin San can''t fight back, she could partially ept it.
Jun Hua looked towards Tang Xuan. The things that surprised her the most were this man capability to make things happen the way he wanted it.
"You sure are amazing, Prince Tang Xuan," Jun Hua said calmly.
"Thank you for yourpliment. What do you think about my proposal?"
"Taking over the Yuan Kingdom?" Jun Hua didn''t have any interest in taking other people kingdom, but could she reject it? Her grandfather had told her before that she the military needed more money. All this time, the one who control it was her grandfather because she was quite dumb in this area.
Yuan Kingdom was quite prosperous because of their trade with the kingdom from outside. The trade will be beneficial for her too, and Jun Hua couldn''t bring herself to say no.
"What is the benefit for you?"
"For me?" Prince Tang Xuanughed. "I would have asting business partner and dependable ally. The emperor is starting to get old, and I doubt he would reject the invitation from Jun family."
Jun Hua knew that the emperor was older than the other leader, but she didn''t want to be an empress by all means. Besides that, the strong family around here was not only Jun family.
"Jun family is not the strongest family here. There are still several more of them. Are you sure that you want us?"
Prince Tang Xuan nodded. "I know that you''re not the only candidate, but given your location is nearer and the capability of your soldier is amazing, I choose you."
"I see, so it will be disrespect if I reject it."
The two of them smiled.
