Flowers Bloom from Battlefield 370 A Visi

Tang Xuan looked towards the result of the discussion with a frown. Although they still got several benefits, the number was not as much as usual. With how this little princess usually behaved, she would never accept a result this bad and strived for a better one at all cost.

“What is it, Tang Xuan?” Xiao Meng noticed Tang Xuan’s expression and asked.

“I just found your result to be slightly lacking compared with the usual,” Tang Xuan answered carefully as if he was afraid of offending the princess in front of him.

Xiao Meng nodded her head. As the one negotiating the term herself, she knew very well that she had lost her battle with Yan. That easygoing emperor was not all that to him. He was more cunning and knowledgeable. That was if she removed the fact that he looked extremely harmless and innocent.

In truth, she was not that satisfied with the result of the trade, but there was simply nothing she could do. If she tried to drag the matter into a longer discussion, there wouldn’t be an end. One of them had to back down a little bit.

After several times considering, she finally chose to back off a little bit and let the other party won a little at this time. Based on what Yan offered as the finale, she knew that he also held back because he realized that she could choose to not back down. Seeing that he still knew how to be considerate, she finally signed the agreement.

“I know that the result is not that good,” Xiao Meng said slowly, “But if you’re the one talking to him, do you think you can force him gives us favorable term like this?”

The one who negotiated the term in the Yuan Kingdom previously was Tang Xuan. In the first place, they never got a really good agreement and only slightly profited. Now that the entire land was in Yan’s hand, they could strive for a better contract. Although this one was not too satisfying, this was still far better compared with the previous one.

“I won’t dare to say that I have the capability,” Tang Xuan replied politely.

Xiao Meng nodded her head. She thought about something and looked up once more, “The one who you said an excellent general. Is it that man named Soujin or the girl named Jun Hua?”

“The two of them, Your Highness,” Tang Xuan answered.

Xiao Meng accepted Tang Xuan’s answer as she pondered about the matter. Her long finger tapped on the chair, making a soft sound because of the friction.

“She is a lady, do you mean the Long Kingdom has a female general?”

“Yes.”

As she heard what Tang Xuan said, she recalled her conversation with Jun Hua before. Jun Hua had told her that she has fought against Tang Xuan in the past. From the information he searched about that woman, it seemed to be rather true. As a general, how could she not have the strength needed to beat Tang Xuan?

Xiao Meng chuckled lightly. “How nice it is for women in this area to have much more freedom.”

“Princess?” Tang Xuan looked towards the young princess in front of him. As the one who had been accompanying this woman for quite some time, he knew her situation far better than anyone. She has limited freedom, which was only given to her because of her ability in trading that her father valued so much.

Women never have much worth. If not because of her skill, she would have been married off to some random rich and powerful nobles in Gu Yue Kingdom. Perhaps by now, she would have been confined, without any chance to see the vastness of the world.

“I’m just rambling,” Xiao Meng lowered her gaze. “If I’m not born as a princess, I wonder how my situation will be.”

Tang Xuan shook his head. As much as he wanted that to happen, he knew how impossible it would be. “Women don’t have much freedom here too. If you know the history of her having two aliases, Jun Hua and Jun Min, you might understand that she too experiences a lot of things to reach this point.”

Xiao Meng looked towards the report on the table. It would be lying if she said that she hadn’t read them because she would always try to understand people around her better. From them, she could faintly guess what this young general has gone through all these years.

Hiding her gender, training like mad, standing at the very front without anyone to share the burden, all of them were things that she realized from the report.

“She’s truly an interesting general. Let’s have a visit before we finish the trade. I want to talk with the female general first,” Xiao Meng suggested.

“Your wish is my command, Princess.”

Tang Xuan made the letter and only several days later, they could go to visit the young general and his wife. When Xiao Meng heard about it, she quickly ordered her servants to help her prepare herself. Before long, Steward Du already prepared a carriage for them and they departed towards Soujin’s Residence.

Inside the carriage, Xiao Meng peered outside to see the people’s expression. They were mostly warm, and they welcomed her coming here with open hand. With the emperor’s order, they all behaved and didn’t cause unnecessary trouble for her.

Xiao Meng smiled faintly. “They are truly good people.”

Tang Xuan nodded his head as a warm smile appeared on his handsome face. “Yes, they’re good people.”

Before long, the carriage arrived at the residence. Tang Xuan helped Xiao Meng climbed down the carriage while Steward Du brought the carriage away.

“Princess Hua is resting in the hall. She apologized that she can’t greet you all by herself. Please follow me,” Xiao Yun informed these two politely.

“It’s fine. It was already an honor for the princess to spare some time for me,” Xiao Meng evaded the matter and quickly said her thanks instead.

Xiao Yun nodded her head. She knew that these two were extremely smart, so she better not spend her time talking with them too much. If she leaked out anything important from this residence, even her own Miss will punish her, so she did her best not to.

Xiao Meng arrived in the hall pretty quickly. She looked towards the lady on the chair with repressed feeling. When she first met with Jun Hua, she only gazed at her for a moment because the other party wore a veil. Now that she carefully looked at the other party directly without a veil, she found that the word beautiful would never be enough to describe the face presented before her.

Even the usually calm Tang Xuan lost his breath for a moment when he looked at Jun Hua’s complexion. How in the world could someone can be so beautiful? He regretted not seeing her face sooner when he had the chance in the past.

“Princess Xiao Meng, Prince Tang Xuan,” Jun Hua greeted, “I apologize that I was unable to welcome you all by myself.”

“No need to apologize, just meeting you is already an honor, Princess Jun Hua,” Xiao Meng answered.

Jun Hua smiled. The real reason she didn’t greet them was not because she was unable to, but because Soujin forbid her to welcome any people inside the house. Now that she was already 6 months pregnant, he became more cautious and didn’t want to leave the residence aside from training in the hall.

“Please have a seat, Princess Xiao Meng. May I ask the reason for your visit?” Jun Hua waved her hand and the servants prepared tea for them.

Xiao Meng smiled back, “I want to have a chat with you, Princess Hua.”

“Well, then, let’s hope that we can have a nice chat,” Jun Hua replied with a smile.
