Flowers Bloom from Battlefield - 343 Wedding Nigh

Returning to the hall, Soujin had to drink the wine, especially the one Yan imposed on him. As the subject, he needed to follow the emperor ‘order’. However, it was Yan who cannot hold himself drinking that much.

“If you cannot drink, you shouldn’t force yourself,” Ming Hui sighed in annoyance. This brother of his was still that unreliable in many aspects after becoming the emperor.

This time, Ming Xiao also came over although Lin San couldn’t come because of that girl was not feeling well even after months from giving birth. Seeing the joyful expression on Soujin who accepted Yan offer of drink nonchalantly, he was sure that his brother would become a hassle later.

“There is nothing we can do about the emperor conduct anymore,” Ming Xiao sighed.

Ming Hui nodded his head. Because their status was different now, they could only scold Yan in private. As for the public face, they would maintain a good relationship. Of course, if Yan dared to do something inappropriate, they would gladly beat him up.

“General, a toast,” Ming Xiao offered a glass of wine to Soujin.

Soujin took his glass and drank it without any hesitation. Seeing how he still could drink after Yan forced him to drink a lot with him, Ming Hui shook his head slightly. They might need a gallon of wine to make this man drunk if this continued.

Fan Lanying also there, but she didn’t drink that much. Ming Hui forbid her to drink because he was worried that she will be drunk. She had once drunk in the residence and Ming Hui said that it would be better if she didn’t touch the wine anymore. No matter how many times she asked, Ming Hui wouldn’t tell her the reason, so she could only concede.

While most of the guests were asking Soujin to drink, the two old men on the side were preparing a different thing. Although they didn’t argue in front of the crowd, their eyes were showing that each side won’t back down.

After some time, Soujin finally managed to drive most of the guest out, leaving only the closest one to him left. He looked towards the drunken Yan, who was being dragged outside by Ming Xiao and Shu with a sigh. The image of the emperor would surely go down again.

“Ming Hui, it’s already late,” Soujin nodded his head to Ming Hui and Fan Lanying. They were already preparing to go back too.

Ming Hui nodded his head, “Oh right, Soujin. I have something to tell you.”

Moving his head near Soujin’s ear, he said something in low voice. Soujin’s face didn’t change when Ming Hui said the word to him, but there was clearly a wave within his eyes.

“Thank you Ming Hui,” Soujin said as he nodded his head.

Ming Hui nodded his head and took Fan Lanying out from the place. Although Fan Lanying was curious, she didn’t ask Ming Hui about what he told Soujin.

Finishing with the guests, Soujin returned back to the room. Seeing Jun Hua was sitting on the bed calmly, waiting for him, a smile appeared on his face.

“Sorry that I took so long. Yan is making a ruckus again,” he said as he sat down near Jun Hua.

Jun Hua nodded her head. She could already imagine Yan trying to make Soujin drunk and she was pretty sure that the one who became drunk in the end was Yan. After all, that man couldn’t hold his liquor that well.

“Does Grandpa also make a ruckus?” Jun Hua asked worriedly.

Soujin was about to shake his head when they heard the sound of two people arguing near the room. The two old men specifically wait for the guests returned before they showed their true color.

“Don’t block my view, you old man! I want to see my grandson.”

“Dang it, I won’t allow him to…”

As the two started to curse, Jun Hua got the urge to bury her head on the ground. These two old men really didn’t have the sense of shame. Even she felt that these two really didn’t know the rules as they just eavesdrop in their grandson and granddaughter’s room.

Soujin sighed, “Lou, you can accompany my grandfather tonight.”

“Yamin, please take my grandfather to his room.”

“Yes General.” “Yes Miss.”

As the two voices sounded out, they could hear their grandfather being dragged out from the hallway. Jun Hua ordered her servants to go out after passing Soujin a bowl of sobering tea. Although Soujin didn’t really need it due to his high alcohol tolerance, he still accepted it. The night finally went quiet.

With the two martial arts, they knew that there was no one else near them. Soujin sighed as he raised his hand and put down the hair ornament from Jun Hua’s head. He frowned when he noticed its weight. The woman sure not have it easy on their marriage.

“Thank you,” Jun Hua said softly. Her voice sounded lower than usual which made it became more alluring and gentler.

“Have you eaten anything?” Soujin asked as he put the crown aside.

Jun Hua nodded her head and admitted, “I eat while waiting for you to return.”

He had already guessed it. Moving his hand to her hair, he started working to undo her hair. The servants had purposely made it to be easy, so he wouldn’t have any trouble. After several seconds, he finally finished untangling the hair. The smooth and silky hair dropped down on his hand.

In his mind, he sighed deeply. How long has he waited to touch her like this? The war, the battle, the conflict, all of them made him unable to see her. Now she has finally in his grasps. He would never let her go.

He looked at her face, the beautiful face. Although he was not one to be moved by a beauty, only for Jun Hua did he made the exception. Even if he were to stare at her face for hours, he doubted he would be bored.

Jun Hua’s face reddened at the gaze Soujin gives her. If not for the makeup she used, she was sure that he would know that she was feeling embarrassed under his intense gaze.

“Can you not look that much?” Jun Hua opened her mouth.

“I want to look at you,” Soujin finally pulled her closer to him. Sensing the sweet smell coming from her, he sighed deeply to himself. Moving his hand, he rubbed her shoulder, the one where she was hurt for protecting him.

Jun Hua noticed his eyes and put her hand on top of his, “Don’t blame yourself. It’s just a small wound.”

To leave a scar, it must be a deep wound. Soujin frowned, but seeing the smile on Jun Hua face as she looked at him, his hand relaxed a bit.

“I will protect you,” Soujin promised. He would never want to see her gets hurt anymore.

“I’m not the one that would always need to be protected,” Jun Hua pouted, “So, I too will protect you.”

Soujin nodded his head, and he caressed her head lovingly. Inside his embrace, Jun Hua could hear the heartbeat of Soujin grew faster, which only made her face reddened. Having her in his embrace, Soujin knew that he wouldn’t be able to control himself much longer.

“Hua’er, I think I won’t be able to keep my promise to your grandfather.”

Jun Hua tilted her head. What kind of promise? Before she knew it, Soujin already pushed her into the bed, looking at her from above.

“Tonight, I’m going to make you cry.”

Jun Hua blushed as Soujin leaned in and kissed her deeply. The night has just started.
